MIFlash error: flash timeout

[imbadsus]

Hello,


I wanted to root my phone to MIUI version 13.
I have rooted before and I was at MIUI 12.6.
While I was romming my phone it failed (which i didnt see) and followed the guide and wiped everything.
Now I am stuck without an operating system, I have tried flashing but when I was flashing and it came to 1201 seconds then it said "error: flash timeout"

Does anyone know what to do?

First of all, you should change the title of the thread as it is confusing to the content of the post.

I found a way. mi flash tool seems to have a time limit of 700 seconds, so we have to flash the rom with less time than that. Previously I flashed using my old laptop (using HDD) and there was a timeout error. then I borrowed my friend's laptop which has pretty good specs (using SSD) and I managed to flash it.

Use old version of miflashtool

Ayuda no me deja flashear..

For those who have the same problem, download the most recent adb platform tools folder and replace the files in the miflash folder, that was my solution.

This is true, it worked for me... I think the default was meant for recent system with fast performance i.e SSD and USB 3.0, which would be a very recent PC to work well but on older PC with HDD or USB 2.0, it loads the files slowly exceeding the required time threshold

Replacing the files with the lasted ADB platform tools which is optimised for both old and new systems would make it faster.

Some people do use older versions but that didn't work for me though it seems to work for them

Thanks man, you saved me.

download the related stock rom and latest platform tools, also install adb installer..
step 1: extract the platform tool at location C:\ i.e. C:\platform-tools
step 2: extract all the files from the downloaded rom and paste it inside the platform tools.
step 3: open your mi flash tool and run like as usual, like select the rom location i.e C:\platform-tools [ remember to select flash_all_lock].
now you are good to go, flash the rom and the issue will be solved
