Hello,
I need help. I did all the instruction, every thing went fine till last point of Step 6
6 - We're on TWRP Recovery using slot B. Do this:
Install twrp-3.3.1-17-laurel_sprout-Installer-mauronofrio.zip
Reboot to Recovery
Format Data with "yes"
Install lineage ROM zip
Install twrp-3.3.1-17-laurel_sprout-Installer-mauronofrio.zip (yes, again...)
Reboot to Recovery
I hit Reboot Button and my MI A3 went of .. and never turned on again .. nothing possible anymore .. no fastboot modus, no charging .. just black .. Is there anytimgs I can do ?
Tank you very much in advance .. Hardy
I found this and finally it worked
- download and register MI FLASH PRO
https://miflashpro.com/
- download Fastboot ROM
https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/laurel/
- download (Mi A3) prog_firehose_ddr_unbrick.elf
https://www.leakite.com/xiaomi-programmer-firehose-files/
- check device manager - ports: qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 (com3) - device is in EDL mode
- replace ROM/images/prog_firehose_ddr.elf with downloaded prog_firehose_ddr_unbrick.elf - fix for "Your Account is Unauthorized for this operation"
- open Mi Flash Pro/Mi Flash
- select path to ROM (can not have any space)
- select clean all
- select flash
if you are getting "cannot receive hello packet" or "cannot read from port com" it's probably EDL timeout or driver issue.
- unplug usb from phone, push power button for 40 sec, plug usb back to phone, refresh and flash
just pushing power button and waiting for disconnect/reconnect wasn't working..
just unplug/plug usb wasn't working..
