dropped phone = bricked?

[b3ava]

Hey guys dropped my mi5s plus the phone will show black screen after mi logo then black screen then power off..
Everything was kept stock on this phone.
Holding power+vol down= fast boot
Holding power+vol up= battery icon in the centre of the screen..

Any suggestions? I am a complete beginner so take it easy on me

fastboot and recovery are ok
does device switch off automatically in fastboot mode ?

I think problem is battery discharged completely and it is not charging

Phone dropped ≠ bricked, it seems more like phone dropped = phone damaged.

Hi,

I have the same problem, but the phone is charging normally...

Phone fell from about 30 cm (with screen to the floor) and turned off. Since then I'm unable to turn it on. I have mi logo, then mi logo with android sign, I feel a vibration and screen turns black. Buttons are flashing for about 10-20 seconds and phone turns off.

I'm unable to flash it with miflash (it's locked and even the global/chinese rom doesn't suit). I tried with wipe and chinese pc suite, but nothing helps.

Edit: OK, it was charging normally I think, but for now it's stuck on 59% and doesn't charge at all...

Did you try using a deep flash cable?

No, I don't have one. But my firmware doesn't support deep flashing anymore.

Hard brick

Hi,

After installing EU.Rom, my MI5s Plus turned into hard brick. Nothing works anymore. It does show in device manager, but that´s it. Also not noticed in MI Flash Tool.
In CMD (ADB and Fastboot) it says "device not attached". I have read about Deep Flash, but have no idea how to use this or where to buy it.

Can anyone help me out here? Thanks a lot.
