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:

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:

• Download and install the Qualcomm drivers: Download Qualcomm Drivers.

Mi Flash Tool:

• Download Mi Flash Tool from Xiaomi’s official site.

Firmware (Fastboot ROM):

• Mi 5X MIUI ROM: Xiaomi MIUI Downloads.
• Mi A1 Android One ROM: You can download from sources like Xiaomi Firmware Updater, XDA Developers, or MiFirm.

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.
