[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] alexp999:
Both the device and Sync can see each other but it doesn't matter whether I initiate it from the device or car it won't pair. Sync doesn't come up with the pin prompt it just sits there.

Perhaps I'll try a sync master reset if you got it working ok. I thought it might have been a compatibility issue with a new bluetooth radio stack on the htc 10.

If that fails I'll have to bug my dealer about updating my cars software.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] mrwicked:
Have a '16 Ford and Sync paired right up with my 10.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] alexp999:
I tried a Sync master reset twice and rebooted my 10. It's not having any of it.

I tried it in my mum's 2012 Focus and it paired with Sync first time no issues.

Guess I'll be taking my car back to Ford and hope they can fix it with a software update.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] omar302:
Make sure you remove (unpair) sync from your phone & restart it before trying to repair it to sync after the master reset. I also had no problems pairing my 10 to MyFord Touch.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] elshagon:
Some cars won't pair unless you're in park also, so make sure you finish pairing it before driving.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] alexp999:
It won't even pair in the first place. :(
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] skypilotofhope:
Bummer. Yeah, see about a Sync software update. Before you make an appt, you can go to the Ford site and follow the instructions on determining if you need an update (sync my ride, I think it is).

My Ford Touch is running 3.6.2; however, 3.8 is now available. Good luck. Definitely sounds the the issue is your vehicle's software.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] alexp999:
I've already applied the October update which seems to be the latest an end user can load manually.

I'm going to try pulling the fuse to force a hard reboot to see if that fixes it. Otherwise it'll be going back to the dealer to see if they can fix it.

I can't understand why my mum's Focus worked on 4 year old software but mine didn't on 6 month old software though. Just computers being fickle I guess.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] alexp999:
Fuse didn't make any difference either.

So took it in to Ford this morning, tech comes out and guess what. Pairs first time, haha.

Only thing he did different was have the ignition on (rather than just turning sync on manually in accessory mode).

Stupid computers! Lol.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] sovetski90:
Fix

I have a possible fix.

My issue was I couldn't pair my HTC 10 with my ford territory 2012 Bluetooth. My phone detected it but it would read "pairing failed" on my car dash screen.

You need to download two apps:

- BlueScan

- BT direct

Use bluescan to identify the car Bluetooth address (a string of letters and numbers)

Then, using BT direct, enter the address manually and hit pair

This worked for me.

Hope it helps
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] sivd:
My Xiaomi mi5 does not turn on.

No lights, fastboot is not accessible, resetting it does not do anything.

Basically for any combination of buttons that I press, nothing happens and the screen stays black - it is completely dead.

However, when I plug it into my pc, the devices shows up as qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 (COM3) which is the only sign of life from the phone.

What I want to know is if it is possible for me to unbrick the phone from this situation. I understand that I need to get into fastboot in order to flash the ROM, but is there a way to get to fastboot using my pc? Or even turn the phone on with commands? At the moment ADB and Fastboot does not recognise my phone, is there a way to make it detect it from the state it is in?

Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] kamrul.auntu:
Do you have all the necessary driver installed? I think yes and that is why you are seeing in (COM3) port. You can do one thing, Unplug the phone from PC and Press and Hold Vol Down (-) and plug in again. If not works then you can also Press and HOLD Vol Down and Press and HOLD Power button until you see Fast boot menu. If don't work then try the same thing with Vol UP button. Then you suppose to see a MI phone logo with a USB cable.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] sys01:
"qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008" Is a signal of Hard Brick for QCOM devices (Like for LG G2);

http://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/general/fix-unbrick-lg-g2-stuck-qualcomm-hs-usb-t2933830

As you can see here, for fix it you need all partition files, all system files, and a programm

But i dont know if it will works also on SD820, you might need all files for Mi5

Just a question: How did you bricked your phone?

EDIT:

I had an idea: maybe inside fastboot rom you can find all files you need, it might be worth a try, at least you can send it to your shop where you bought it
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] adwinp:
1: if you're detecting it as qcom 9008, there's a good chance it's in EDL mode, which is good news

2: download MiFlash from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24521665358595574

3: download the latest dev rom from here: http://update.miui.com/updates/v1/fullromdownload.php?d=gemini&b=X&r=cn&n=

4: Extract the files to C:\

5: Open MiFlash & point the folder to the root ROM folder, example: C:\gemini_foo_bar, NOT C:\gemini_foo_bar\images

6: connect your phone & select flash all (1st option from the left, bottom of MiFlash tool)

This might take a few tries (example - you might receive "missed hello packets)

Once you're done, you can stay with the China Dev, unlock the bootloader & flash a xiaomi.eu rom, or CM.

Good luck.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] flyturbo:
I also had the same issue with black screen and no responses from vol. & power buttons. But when I notice that in device manger it showed the qcom driver, then I new that there was hope to recover the phone. I can confirm that this will unbrick your phone. I MiFlash'd the China Rom (non-dev), unlocked the bootloader, MiFlash'd MiFlash_xiaomi.eu_gemini_V7.2.13.0.MAACNDB_6.0 rom, sideload lastest stable EU rom, TRWP and SuperSU.

Ok, solved by disabling driver sign (press F8 during boot)
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Isteran:
Hello , i got the same problem as described at this topic and here is my problems :

I can't turn on my phone and i can't put it in fastboot mode ( tryed a lot of buttons combinations)

But when i plug it into my pc - it recognizes as Android

I have tryed to install drivers but windows shows mistake and can't install that

When my device connected to pc and i press volume + and power buttons - in few minutes system(WIN 10) recognizes it as ADB interface(can't install drivers too) and i have acess to mi5 internal storage ( i can download photos and so on )

But mi flash doesn't see phone in any mode and i feel that my device is still alive and i can recover it but don't know how....

I will be grateful for any help !
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] DrBubblewrap:
If you can see it in adb, you might be able to see it in fastboot.

Try go in to fastboot (even though you can't see it on screen.)

And try fastboot oem device-info see if you can get anything. Then we go from there.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] Isteran:
tryed a lot of time to go to fastboot , but nothing happened...
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] tkrave:
same issue

I've been having the same problem with my MI5, 128gb running MIUI8 6.6.23CN, unlocked bootloader

It started when I did an OTA from 6.6.16, then OTA failed, I tried again this time it downloaded full rom and went into my twrp but installation started automatically. Then it rebooted but the system stayed in black screen. I forced-rebooted it, then everything was fine and I was on 6.6.23. I was using the phone normally for a few hours, then around 6hr later after I upgraded, I took phone out of my bag and it was bricked. I tried everything, no fastboot, no adb, no recovery, no led, nothing on screen. MiFlash reconizes (cuz of the 9008 status) but flash fails. I event opened it up, disconnected the 3 cables from the battery and hold onto power buttons for few seconds to try to drain whatever power it has left in system. Reconnected battery but no change.

I gave up, put phone back in case and was going to ask friend to take it back to send to china for repair the next day, but then I too it out an hour before I go meet my friend and suddenly, phone led flashed red and I see on screen out-of-battery icon. I plugged it in to charge then LED flickered quickly in red for a bit then turn solid red, then turned orange. I let it charged for 10min or so, and pressed power+Vol_Down for few seconds. Lo and behold, I got the bunny on screen and went into fastboot. I was able to re-flash 6.6.23 and phone was good to go again. (but why did removing battery cables do the same thing? Maybe I didn’t leave it disconnected long enough?)

Good story until this part… then 2 days later, I wanted to test MI Talk with friend, I click on it, and phone froze. Both touch sensor light stayed on. I waited about 15 second and forced reboot. Phone vibrates once and then went into hard brick again. Exactly same situation, nothing works.

Now I am waitng for phone to discharge by itself. God knows how many days it will take. It was 96% charged. (1st time I had about 45% and too a day to discharge)

Only if I can get back into fastboot......
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] vf1:
You don't have to go into fastboot to use miflash if you have stock recovery
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] tkrave:
how do you flash stock recovery if you dont need to go into fastboot? now I am unable to go into recovery or fastboot as the phone does not boot at all. connecting it to PC reconizes the phone as the infamous "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" device.

Its been 4 days and the damn battery hasnt run out yet as I can still plug into pc and get qualcom 9008 to come up. I think I am going to send to china to get it fixed properly if I still cannot get the red flicker of low battery power to come up by tomorrow.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] takkaros:
It has happened to me 3-4 times already. It didnt want to boot. No signs of life either. I even sent a message to the shop for sending it back..the only thing that was telling me it wasn't completely dead, was the qualcomm driver ,while on USB connection with the PC, which you are referring to as well

Here is what you could try doing. Try pressing the power button for about 30 seconds at first. If it does not boot, try bending the phone real gently back and forth (don't break it!!). Preferably, hit it gently with your palm while holding it in your other hand.( -- I know it might sound weird --) I noticed that it's shutting down while i have it in my pocket and doing some work which squeezes the phone a bit against my leg.

I came to the conclusion that some connection must become loose when some pressure is being applied to it.. Unfortunately it has to be a design flaw of the phone. Nothing random with yours or mine , in my opinion. // I have a case and tempered glass installed as well since the first minute I got it in my hands..
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] tkrave:
Thanks for the tips Takkaros. I tried what you said but nothing changed (though I was a bit scared to bend it too hard). 1st time it happened to me, I had around 40-50% battery and somehow battery completely drained 24hr later so I got the red blinking low of battery light and was able to charge the phone up and go back into fastboot, which solved everything. this time it happened when I had 96% battery(which I knew cuz I was using the phone, then clicked MI Talk and phone froze, then bricked). I wish there is a way for me to force a battery drain without opening it up. I did opened it up once(on the 1st brick) and disconnected the 3 battery cables, but it was still in brick state when I put everything back.

The qualcomm 9008 driver detection was also my concern about sending back the phone. Chances are by the time my phone reaches the repair shop, battery is completely dead and they simply charge the battery then flash a stable rom and send it back to me without changing out the motherboard or whatever. Which in such case it will be faster for me to just wait a week or two and do myself, instead of shipping it to china and wasting shipping cost and probably will take 4-6 weeks.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] takkaros:
I am not sure whats wrong with this phone. Sometimes it turns off while i have in on charge at night, with the Green led lighting. I can get into recovery mode but all the partitions are missing. I cant wipe anything and all my files are not there. If I restart the recovery 2-3 times everything comes back to normal. Maybe there is something wrong with the flash drive. If honorbuy replied to my messages i'd sent it back to them asap. This is not a reliable phone for daily use
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] vf1:
Try using mi flash. Follow the instruction
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] tkrave:
I am sending back the phone to china to have them "fix" it. Not sure what they will do, hopefully they either swap me a new phone or swap out the motherboard or something. I just hope they dont just boot into fastboot (after battery completely drained and system resets) and flash new rom and send it back to me.

Probably will take a month or so. Good thing i still have my old phone.

The old version of MiFlash can't recover it properly due to new protocol usage (switched from default sahara do firehose). In this case, download the MiFlashBeta and use it to restore your phone.

Hello,

On my side i don't know what to do, i tried to flash a custom ROM and my mi5 is now bricked with this symptom : - have a lock bootloader - no software inside to link to my mi account to unlock the bootloader

- can't boot on recovery (boot + volume up ) - i think there is no more recovery + neither usb image

- boot on fastboot mode (boot + volume down) + recognises with the command "fastboot devices"

I just don't know what to do : if someone have a way, i'll be very very gratefull (i just got the phone a week ago and bricked it one hour after)

Regards,

Louis

Hello all!

My friend`s MI5 128GB was dead.

Wont turn on, no recovery, no fastboot & adb at all.

There is the solution what i used for recover the bricked phone:

Just in case things - if your PC is not recognize the phone as "qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 (COM10)"

Follow this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ED96PJ-qYMM

I did exactly the same.

Download the MIUI Flashing Tool from this link - and the MI5 Global package :

http://en.miui.com/a-234.html

Unzip the Global package ( need it twice ) - and copy to your C:\ drive. Mine was like: C:\gemini_global_images_V8.1.2.0.MAAMIDI_20161107.0000.00_6.0_global

In the Flash tool select the Flash all.

It works for a first time!

Just in case i gave for the flashing tool Admin privilege and Win7 compatibility mode.

Leave in charger your phone before you try!

So far im happy because i recovered my friend phone.

Im was so confused about what i found on the internet... there is 2 different MIFlashTool !

Cheers

This happened to me too without me doing something out of the ordinary. Phone running LOS rebooted, the screen flashed the fastboot logo then went black. No buttons worked. When connected to a computer running Windows it showed up as a QDLoader 9008.

What I did what do unscrew the smal screws above the battery and disconnect the battery, then reconnect it again. When turning on the phone it booted as normal, saving me the time to flash MUIU and reflash LOS.
[Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers] ZenekK:
How to get the data from the bricked MI5?

Bricked here as well. Funny, because it had happened after I had plugged out a USB memory from the phone, like out of nothing.

Anyway, my issue is that I need to withdraw some data I have on the phone before I flash it.

After the phone died I could see it as qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 in the device manager. I left the phone away for some days and then I plugged it to the computer again. Red LED started to blink and I could see it in the device manager as MTP USB, however I couldn't access the phone data. While being connected I installed the ADB drivers and the phone tried to fastboot (I saw the icon on the screen) - then, after several seconds the screen turned into a battery icon (charging) and died. I could see the device when run the adb through the command prompt however the device appeared as unauthorized.

Since nothing was happening I turned off the phone and turned it on again. I saw the MI logo and the phone looked like the system is loading. This state lasted for over 10 minutes, but nothing was changing. I turned the phone again and it all went to the beginning - bricked and seen as qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008.

I also managed to open the phone, unplug the battery ribbon and plug it again, however it have changed nothing.

So, my question is what to do to get at the phone's data? I see two options: let it wait for the battery to recharge, plug it and try to boot to recovery or to do something (what?) to make the internal memory visible at my PC and copy what I need.

Or perhaps there is another option (like flashing only the recovery /TWRP/ and then from the TWRP level copy the data)?

I'd appreciate any hints, suggestions! Thanks in advance!

Another brick on the wall (well not yet)

Nice stories and all encouraged me to try this again with no luck :( Miflash seems to be flashing perfectly both china and global latest stable roms but after that I still can't get past the black screen or get any response from the phone with any combination of keys pressed. Noticed that after the chinese rom flash the on/off button is triggering the windows sound of conneting/disconnecting a usb device more often(less time pressing to hear the sound). Don't know if this helps anyone but for a moment I was having the same "can not read from port COM3" errors and then while connected via usb I pressed the Power button as if I was turning it on. Even though the screen stayed black, I heard the windows sound of a new device and right after that the miflash tool could flash.

I'm now flashing the latest global stable rom once again but still no signs of "life"
