Hi,
my MI4c is bricked (there is no OS installed and usb debugging is not activated): I have TWRP installed, but I can't install a new OS from my PC because I can't use command prompts (usb debugging is not activated). I was thinking about buying a usb pen (type C) to try and install a custom ROM that way, but I'm not sure that will work. Anybody have any other ideas?

Thanks for any help.

Can you copy files over MTP?

Problem solved. I was able to install a miui China rom using miflash. I then requested unlock permission from xiaomi, which was granted, and now I'm running a Superluminal marshmallow rom.
