by

Fixing a bootloop or dead boot issue on a Xiaomi Mi 5X or Mi A1 typically involves flashing the correct firmware onto the device. Here’s how you can attempt to resolve the issue, including finding the correct firmware.

Steps to Fix Bootloop/Dead Boot on Mi 5X/Mi A1:

1. Download the Firmware (Free):

  • Mi 5X: The Mi 5X runs MIUI (Xiaomi’s custom Android skin). You’ll need the official MIUI ROM for the device.
  • Mi A1: The Mi A1 is part of the Android One program and runs stock Android. You’ll need the official Android One ROM.

Official Sources:

Alternatively, you can search for the appropriate ROM on trusted forums like XDA Developers or other community sites that host Xiaomi firmware. Be cautious of unofficial sites, as downloading from unverified sources can result in malicious software.

2. Install ADB and Fastboot:

You’ll need ADB (Android Debug Bridge) and Fastboot tools installed on your computer. You can download the latest platform tools from Google’s Android developer site:

3. Unlock Bootloader (if required):

  • If the bootloader is locked, you may need to unlock it before flashing the firmware. This can be done via Xiaomi’s official unlocking tool. Visit Xiaomi’s unlock page: Unlock Xiaomi Bootloader.
  • Follow the instructions on the page. Unlocking the bootloader will wipe the data on your device.

4. Boot into Fastboot Mode:

  1. Power off your device completely.
  2. Press and hold Volume Down + Power to enter Fastboot mode. You should see a Mi Bunny logo.
  3. Connect your device to your PC via a USB cable.

5. Flash the Firmware Using Mi Flash Tool (For Mi 5X):

  1. Download Mi Flash Tool from Xiaomi’s official website.
  2. Install Mi Flash Tool on your computer.
  3. Extract the ROM you downloaded earlier (it should be in .tgz format).
  4. Open Mi Flash Tool and click on the “Select” button to browse for the extracted ROM folder.
  5. Ensure your device is in Fastboot mode and connected to the PC.
  6. Click “Refresh” in the Mi Flash Tool to detect your device.
  7. Select “Clean all” to avoid data conflicts and then press “Flash.”
  8. Wait for the process to complete. Once done, the device should reboot with the new firmware.

6. Flash the Firmware Using Fastboot (For Mi A1):

  1. Extract the ROM: The downloaded stock ROM should be in a .zip format. Extract the files.
  2. Open a command window in the folder where the extracted ROM is located.
  3. Flash the firmware using the following commands in Fastboot:perlCopy codefastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img fastboot reboot-bootloader fastboot flash radio radio.img fastboot flash boot boot.img fastboot flash recovery recovery.img fastboot flash system system.img fastboot flash userdata userdata.img fastboot flash cache cache.img fastboot reboot

Fixing a hard brick issue on the Xiaomi Mi 5X or Mi A1 (such as being stuck in a bootloop or dead boot with no recovery or fastboot access) often involves using Emergency Download Mode (EDL). EDL mode is used for flashing firmware directly to the device’s internal storage.

Here’s how you can resolve the issue by flashing the firmware in EDL mode.

Steps to Fix Bootloop/Dead Boot via EDL Mode

Important Notes:

  • EDL mode can potentially void your warranty or further damage the device if not done correctly. Please proceed carefully.
  • Backup all your data (if possible). Flashing firmware will wipe your data.
  • You need specific Qualcomm drivers to use EDL mode.

Requirements:

  1. Xiaomi Mi 5X or Mi A1
  2. PC/Laptop
  3. Qualcomm QDLoader HS-USB Drivers
  4. Mi Flash Tool
  5. Fastboot ROM (Firmware) for your device
  6. USB Cable

1. Download the Necessary Files

Qualcomm QDLoader HS-USB Drivers:

Mi Flash Tool:

Firmware (Fastboot ROM):

Make sure to download the correct ROM for EDL flashing (usually .tgz format).

2. Install Qualcomm Drivers

  1. Download and extract the Qualcomm drivers.
  2. Install the drivers by running the installer file. You may need to disable driver signature enforcement on your PC if installation fails.

3. Enter EDL Mode

There are two ways to enter EDL mode:

Method 1: Using Test Points (For Hard Bricked Devices)

This involves opening the phone and shorting two points on the motherboard to force it into EDL mode. This method is often used when the phone doesn’t respond to button presses.

  1. Disassemble the phone to access the motherboard.
  2. Locate the EDL test points (you can find the diagram on forums like XDA for your specific device).
  3. Short the two points using a metal tool or tweezers while connecting the phone to your PC via USB.

Method 2: Using ADB or Fastboot (If Possible)

If the device is in a bootloop but still accessible via ADB or Fastboot:

  1. Boot into Fastboot mode (hold Volume Down + Power).
  2. Use the following ADB command to reboot into EDL mode:bashCopy codeadb reboot edl orbashCopy codefastboot oem edl

4. Flash Firmware Using Mi Flash Tool

  1. Open Mi Flash Tool on your PC.
  2. Connect your device in EDL mode. The device should show up as COMxx in the Mi Flash Tool.
  3. Load the firmware:
    • Extract the downloaded .tgz fastboot ROM.
    • In Mi Flash Tool, click on “Select” and browse to the folder where the firmware is extracted.
  4. Choose the appropriate flashing option:
    • Clean All: Erases all data on the device (recommended).
  5. Click “Refresh” to ensure the device is detected.
  6. Click “Flash” to start the flashing process.

5. Wait for the Flashing to Complete

  • The flashing process can take a few minutes.
  • Once complete, your device should reboot automatically. If it doesn’t, manually power it on.

6. Reboot the Device

Once the flashing is complete, your device should be restored to working condition with the stock firmware.
