I really hope I have not bricked my mi3.
I recently installed cyanogen 12 Dev rom onto the phone but had terrible trouble installing a gapps package.
I was using cwm recovery r11, so I decided to change the recovery to twrp.
Still I could not get gapps to install! So earlier on I noticed the phone was really hot and over heating and when I looked at it it was stuck on the cyanogen boot logo.
I don't know how this happened but anyway I put the phone into recovery to try and cool it.
I then backed up the current rom on twrp and then tried to install a previous aosp rom that was working fine with gapps..
But when I wiped cache and then tried to install the zip file was missing so I tried to restore the backed up cyanogen 12 rom but the restore was not there.???
So twrp was telling me their was no os on the phone.
I tried to turn off the phone and then reboot to recovery in the hope the restore would be there but now the phone won't do anything.. Nothing.!
Even when I charge it no lights, nothing..
Am I f###ked or is their hope.
Please help.

Try to flash MIUI stock rom with fastboot mode via mi flash tool...
You can find the full guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-3/help/fix-bricked-xiaomi-mi3-mi4-t3154558
This is the latest fastboot rom
Press the volume down key and power key...you should see the fastboot menu(just an fastboot image) then use miflash

Gosh where do I start?
So I installed a custom ROM and everything was working perfectly fine it was a ROM from here but I noticed a connection problem to 4G and Three UK advised me to restore back to stock as it was working then I was pretty sure it wasn't the ROM but I checked anyways or was going to ..
The OnePlus website didn't allow me to download the Oneaplus 3T recovery image so I had to hunt online for it and once I flashed it into recovery I stupidly re-locked the device so nothing could be flashed to it the problem was that the recovery image was for a OnePlus 3 and not a OnePlus 3T recovery image... You can see where I'm at now so literally I thought I was screwed somehow the Qualcomm recovery tool bypassed the OEM lock not sure how but it did and was able to write onto it eben though the device was locked it was able to restore it to a stock lollipop ROM ... I then re unlocked the bootloader...
Im trying to install TWRP but it doesn't fully install it shows up when I force boot in fastboot but once I flash a image it will launch the ROM but TWRP won't launch back up so I keep having to go into fastboot and re flash and fastboot boot command it to get into it any ideas on how to install it properly it just shows a LED light on the notifications light whenever I try and access it, it isn't there unless I reflash and manually boot any idea how to solve it
Try this

That's what I did to solve it been bricked but that won't help me with the recovery flash ..

LOL so your post comes off as you are trying to blame oneplus. Yet everything u explained and have done had everything to do with user error. Rules of xda..... Research. Research research. Once you think u have it research again and makes sure to read it. Did I say research?
Hello everybody....
Since Last year January when my phone got bricked , i have not updated my phone even the OTA updates..
Some how managed to unbrick it..since than havent installed any updates..but now if i wish to install OTA updates what do i need to do?? as it seems my bootloader is still unlocked and if i try to download the OTA update will the phone get bricked again?? BTW i have TWRP installed still.....
Thanks
go to miui and download the latest rom and just install it with TWRP.
There are currently no Android Nougat versions without bugs expect the official miui rom
Agree
Downloaded latest miui developer rom.. Flashed via twrp.. Now stuck in boot loop... What to do..
You probably didn't download latest TWRP that is necessary for Nougat.

finally restored the previous back up from twrp..but even now same issue..cant boot the phone....have tried everything now.. Flashed twrp for nougat via fastboot.. Could get into recovery after that.. But than tried flashing the nougat miui developer rom again.. But same prob boot loop.. Tries restoring the backup with twrp but nothing same boot loop.. Plz help..
Where did you find twrp?
When I first flashed the twrp that was on eu miui first nougat for Mi Note Pro it didn't work. I then installed twrp that was linked from one of the reply which lead me to Miui Hellas it then worked.
I have flashed every version from that point very easily.
I did a find the link to twrp from one of the forums.. After flashing it.. I can atleast get into twrp.. But nothing else is happening.. I mean I tried flashing the latest developer rom but got bootloop.. Tried restoring the previous rom.. Got bootloop... So.. Got fed up and have downloaded the fastboot rom now and will use the mi flash tool in the evening after I get back frm work.. Hope it will work...and I forgot to mention that when i tried "fastboot oem device-info" i got bootloader locked.. After that i did unlock the bootloader frm mi unlock tool... Plz help..
Before going to nougat you have to put latest lollipop which is I think 6.12.22 then twrp for nougat then unlock bootloader then flash first nougat then I think you can flash latest nougat.
let me explain everything why have i created this thread.
My phone was only charging when switched off. I was on Lineage OS (by daniel_hk) at that time so i thought it is because of that custom ROM.
I, then, intended to flash stock ROM, this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/k3-note/development/official-build-lenovo-k3-note-k50a40-6-t3370537
debloated version.
I booted into TWRP recovery (v3.1.1-2 by daniel_hk).
Wiped everything and tried flashing K3 Note S433 Debloated ROM from the link i mentioned above. I received error 7. Now i was stuck without any OS in the phone.
Then I tried to flash other version of twrp (3.1.1-0) in phone using sp flash tool but received another error- "PMT is changed for the ROM! It must be downloaded" :/
I googled and found the solution is format the flash using sp flash tool. I did it and flashed the recovery but my phone went dead completely! No responses at all.
Finally i decided to install the original S433 ROM in K3 Note using SP Flash tool but then i receved another error - "BROM: Error 4008"
Then I tried another version of SP Flash tool, v5.1628 (previously v5.1604), Received the PMT changed error then formatted again then flashed the Original ROM.
Now my phone is Unbricked but still not charging and i have no IMEI also.
Favours/Helps that i want-
1. Main thing i want my phone to charge when it is powered on. Watched this video on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7qtDMu_WTU but I am not able to enter Engineering Mode.
2. I want to install debloated version of this ROM through TWRP and for that i have to flash twrp now but to flash TWRP i will need to format using SP Flash tool first (becuase of error "PMT is Changed in the ROM") and if i do that my phone will be bricked again! If i somehow flashed the recovery then i'll not be able to flash the debloated version of the ROM because of the "Error 7".
3. Want my IMEI back
Any Help will be really appreciated.
And sorry if any similar thread already exists I couldn't find the best solution for me anywhere so i created my own!
dude , first thing to remember;
even if your os is completely gone and recovery option is still working , then don't ever do these stupid things.
I've been in your place . But i always knows that if your recovery is still working then there's 99.9% you can fix it.but it seems like you've ruined everything with other flash tools. Dude , unlike every phones, k3 note has it's own k3 note manager software available in xda forums. You can download twrp backups here . Lenovo stock rom backup was here, only you have to do is download and place it on the correct folder. Then press restore!!!
But you ruined everything. I don't know if it turn on again. You came here after all of this and asking us to help now? I
install a custom rom after installing the stockrom (which got error7 during install)
after u get error7 when installing the firmware,,you wont have any os for the phone to boot.
just flash someother custom rom after u got that error.. phone will boot up.
Please compare whether all files of the stockrom you downloaded are extracted,i got error 7,and when i investigated the reason was that one of the file inside the rar file was not extracted.which inturn caused error during instalation

hows your phone?? alive??
Solved !!!
I was able to flash global miui 9.5.
Hi ,
So after finally the bootloader is unlocked I tried to flash the global rom via mi flash tool.
Update failed and an error message is update crc list failed !
I tried flashing back the chinse rom and I get the same error.
I can boot the device to recovery mode, but its mi recovery 3.0, I have 3 options:
1.wipe data
2. boot to system
3. connect via pc suite
tried with pc suite but it says my device isn't supported.
The computer recognizes the device via MiFlash tool but in adb via cmd when I type adb devices I get blank row and its unable to find the device.
how can I make my phone usable again please?
I have tried many things I found on google but nothing worked.
Thank you all
Hi
Is fastboot mode able?
Try to unlock again.
what do you mean able?
the phone is recognized via Mi Flash tool but in adb via cmd it is not recognized.
I waited 700 hours for the unlock and the phone is unlocked.
can you explain please what is fastboot able and what do you mean to try to unlock again?
thx

yes the phone is in fastboot mode, and I cant back to normal mode for regular use.
I tried to unlock again like you said it the program said the device is already unlocked.
Have you tried the first option, wipe data?
Don't panick, since you have fastboot mode it's not bricked. Let's start by booting into TWRP.
Download TWRP and put it in the same directory with your FASTBOOT.exe file.
Open a windows dos prompt and get to the same directory as your FASTBOOT file.
Reboot your phone into FASTBOOT mode.
in your DOS prompt type "Fastboot boot yourrecoveryfilename.img" (change the yourrecoveryfilename.img to the TWRP recovery image file you downloaded)
your phone should reboot into TWRP if there wasn't an error. TWRP won't be permanent (if you reboot out of TWRP it won't retain it), but will allow you to flash ROM.
I've only ever flashed all my ROMs through TWRP, never used anything else since i unlocked the phone.
Let me know how this goes.

Hello all.
Big screw up, I think. So I've had my MI 8 for a while now, no issues, until today I decided to install official lineage on it. The bootloader was unlocked. I flashed TWRP, but every time I rebooted the phone, it would go back to stock recovery, not TWRP. So here the issue started:
- Via Mi flash tool, I reflashed global MIUI 10 back to stock. I didn't realize I had relocked the bootloader...
- I tried reflashing TWRP without realizing I had relocked the bootloader.
- Thinking that the TWRP flash was done incorrectly again, I simply wanted to go back to stock, and attempted to use the mi flash tool to reflash, once again, the global stock MIUI 10. the flash tool said it was a success. (I still didn't realize I was on a locked bootloader)
- I am now on a bootloop. I can't get past the stock recovery screen, but I can go into fastboot. The recovery screen has a warning that the ROM cannot be used on the phone.
- I tried re unlocking the bootloader with the unlock tool, but because my Mi account credentials are not input on the phone (the phone was wiped clean), I cannot re unlock it.
What can I do? How can I get out of the bootloop, and hopefully re unlock and flash global rom clean again?

I finally got around fixing this. It turns out my phone was China, with Global ROM. So I did an EDL test point method and paid someone with an authorized account to access my laptop remotely to Flash the latest China ROM. I waited the required period for bootloader unlocking, and it's back alive!
I'm running official lineage 16, and I'm pretty happy with the results. I'm Using it as a daily driver instead of my all stock pixel 2 XL. No issues.

That's great news! It sucks that you were tricked into thinking your that phone is a global version. But at least you able to get things permanently sorted.
