Got my mi approval for unlock today and I got same problem as yours... here's what I did:

1. Be sure you have downloaded correct ROM (I'm using mido_global_images_V8.2.10.0.MCFMIDL_20170602.0000.00_6.0_global)

2. edit your *.bat files in your ROM folder, probably these:
flash_all.bat
flash_all_except_storage.bat
flash_all_lock.bat
flash_all_lock_crc.bat
flash_factory.bat

3. comment out the first 2 lines in those files (product check related):

rem fastboot %* getvar product 2>&1 | findstr /r /c:"^product: *MSM8953" || fastboot %* getvar product 2>&1 | findstr /r /c:"^product: *mido" || echo Missmatching image and device
rem fastboot %* getvar product 2>&1 | findstr /r /c:"^product: *MSM8953" || fastboot %* getvar product 2>&1 | findstr /r /c:"^product: *mido" || exit /B 1

save those files

4. open up your MiFlash and try flashing again.


Oh by the way, if you're planning to use TWRP, use the one for Redmi Note 4 with MTK (Nikel), you won't be able to use official twrp-mido image.

good luck

For anyone still looking for help on this:

There can be issues with flashing (and possibly even unlocking etc. in some cases) on Ryzen powered computers. I've been troubleshooting for a pretty long time on this issue and one of the mods on the Xiaomi Community discord server (unofficial) told me to try on an Intel powered computer
To my surprise, firing up Xiaomi ADB Fastboot tools on an Intel laptop worked and the recovery image flashed

If you just happen to be on a Ryzen processor, give Intel one a shot (nothing against AMD by the way, been using it for a while now. Except for some issues with the graphics drivers, but that's a different story)
One more note: This happened on a tulip (Redmi Note 6 Pro) in my case. I've flashed a fastboot ROM on raphael (Redmi K20 Pro / Mi 9T Pro) succesfully on my Ryzen powered PC before. This might not be always the case.

Thanks for reading and hope this can help at least someone as it definitely saved my ass from EDL flashing

Had this problem, outcommented the variantchecks (in the flash_all_except_data.bat and other 3 bat files). Now Miflash prompts not this but subsequent [] problem :
$for /F "tokens=2 delims=: "%in (fastboot -s [MY 7 char-DEVICENO.] getvar anti 2>&1

Probably I am apart from your problem, as Fastboot commands give no responds: for e.g.
fastboot getvar boot-mode, answer is:
< waiting for any device >

Only "success" I had:
fastboot reboot

but still in bootloop

Any help appreciated, I am a beginner...

THANK YOU

I have my ryzen and this is the solution after few hour struggling with this error. Thank a bunch!

Yep, I've just been struggling to install stock 'n' lock via miflash, and it turned out the problem was my Ryzen CPU. Have dug out an old intel laptop, which doesn't connect to wifi, the battery is dead, and half the screen isn't viewable, but it does manage to install firmware via miflash. Thanks so much for this thread, which probably saved me several hours of fiddling.

 

[andredjxd]

Minha CPU é Ryzen e deu erro, descobri que era a porta USB 3.1, troquei para porta 3.0 e funcionou, minha placa mãe é uma B450M Aorus Gigabyte.
Fica a dica!!
