You can try that, it worked for me :

1. Mount System in TWRP.

2. Flash the zip.

3. Reboot. My phone bootlooped, maybe it will be the same for you. Simply pull out the battery and turn the phone on.

4. You should be able to use the app.

I was interested in trying out Yahoo2Go! on my Wing, however when I try to download it from the link I text myself on their website using Wing or the HTC P4350 it displays and Error stating "This device is restricted from downloading this file type."

Anyone have any ideas of why it would do this? It worked fine on my friend, and brother's Wings. Could it be that I did the TMobile Customization/DeBrand? Thanks for your help!!

[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] chetzrao:
Thank you for the instructions. Will try them out over the weekend.

I am in the same boat... an incorrect recovery flash bricked my device.

However, can you please point out which one is the power belt to be pulled out?
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] prahladyeri:
Have a look at this original post. There is an green arrow above the battery area where the power-belt is marked. However, I hope you didn't try to flash the ROM of an entirely different device? If that happens, hope of recovery is little as Xiomi devices are known to get their motherboards damaged in that case.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] chetzrao:
Tried all the steps after shorting the two pins (stable)... MiFlash said operation completed successfully in 93s. But, the battery had completely died so the device didn't boot... charging it now...

However, I think the MiPad is now resuscitated. Many thanks for your post. Saved a great device.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] prahladyeri:
Great! Let us know whether you were able to start the device and what had caused the brick originally? (Will be useful for documentation).
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] Pranz...:
Which is the power belt -1,2,3
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] prahladyeri:
Its 2. But you need to carefully pull that out by inserting a flat-head screwdriver or something at the hollow below the base of that metallic belt. Do it carefully, if you don't feel comfortable, then I recommend enlisting the help of someone who is used to opening electronics.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] Pranz...:
Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] Pranz...:
I have a problem , when I connect power belt then Nvidia drivers connect
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] prahladyeri:
If NVIDIA drivers are connected and the USB connection is stable, you should just flash the latest ROM for MiPAD and be done.

If the connection is not stable, check whether you are doing the short-circuit properly? Refer to the original diagram I've attached for creating the short circuit.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] chetzrao:
Sorry for the delayed response.

YES. The device is now fully back to normal... thank you once gain for the instructions... getting the short between the pins is the tricky bit... I managed it by twisting the ends of a safety pin and wedging them under the MicroSD frame.

The original cause of the brick was flashing a wrong version of CWM.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] prahladyeri:
Great! Glad to know that.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] anware:
Thank you!! It worked!

Finally after 4 hours of effort, got my Mi Pad working! The process does work! Had to log in and post and reply. Thank you [MENTION=5292678]prahladyeri[/MENTION]. :D :good:

What had happened:

Wrong click during SuperSU update. After that no boot. Screen lights up, but stays blank. No MI logo. No Fastboot. No Recovery. No battery charging/LED indication.

What worked for me

Here's the step by step of what worked for me after a lot of trial and error.

Downloaded all necessary files. Downloaded MiFlashTool from Xiaomi Tips (v20160830) - did not install. Downloaded Fastboot ROM (MiPad Global). Had already installed Mi PC Suite.

Uninstalled everything installed earlier (excluding MI PC Suite).

Restarted Windows 10 and disabled driver signature verification. Just hold shift when clicking restart in the windows power menu.

Installed MiFlash. Checked log in <the drive you installed Mi Flash in>:\XiaoMi\XiaoMiFlash\Log. Verified whether the result for all driver installation is 'true'.

Removed back cover and panel. Disconnected battery belt. Took a regular paper clip and created a small 'v' shaped object. Bent the ends to look like the paws of a dog's front legs when standing on its hind legs (sorry, not really a great description, but there it is :p). Created a short circuit using the clip.

Connected to PC. PC beeps for connection. Thankfully connection remains stable (I did not connect the power belt; let the clip stay).

Dev Manager shows 'APX'. Update driver by pointing to MiFlash folder. Driver installs successfully.

Open MiFlash. Select ROM.

Refresh MiFlash. Device shows '0'. I say what the heck and click Flash. Starts flashing but shows device busy and pauses. At this point I am about to give up again. But suddenly the Gods of Android smile on me, and it flashes.

73s later I see a successful message and a sigh of relief escapes my lips.

Remove clip. Connect battery. Reassemble pad.

Turn on Pad and Voila! MI logo!

Hope this helps or at least encourages ('coz I know how frustrating it was to get it to work).
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] Epipong:
Thanks very much, I fixed my MiPad 1 year later !

I succeed to using aluminum foil (easiest way) and when I connected my MiPad to the PC I directly reconnected the battery and flash without disconnect device and it's worked !

I used MiFlash 20151028 instead of 20160830 and download ROM like this mocha_images_4.11.21_4.4_cn_7352dcd481.tgz
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] jobinslmn:
Just a small point for clarity, my MI pad got bricked with the wrong click in supersu. I did not unlock my MI pad ever since I bought it with MI unlocked tool provided by MI. But did root the tab with kingroot desktop app which showed fastboot logo in between the rooting process. Sould I be worried because I'm planning to do the same procedure. Waiting for your approva

Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] prahladyeri:
Try all the "soft-unbrick" methods first before trying this out

Make sure you try the usual "soft-unbrick" methods first (like recharging it overnight and various power button combinations(power+up, power+dn, etc)). This method has to be the last resort. Though there isn't anything specific you need to worry about and usually it works, the short-circuit is tricky and needs to be done very correctly so that the USB connection stays stable which is essential to flash the MiPad.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] prahladyeri:
Did you ever try to re-partition the MiPad any time? If that happens or you tried to flash a wrong version of the ROM, there is the danger of MiPad mother-board getting damaged. Better take it to your nearest Xiaomi service center or send it to China.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] vchoi13:
Hi, please help. I managed to get to the part my PC can detect the APX device with Nvidia driver installed. The connection is stable, but I am unable to detect the device on my MIFlash tool version 2016.08.30.0 (I spam Refresh/Flash button but it's not helping). I have disabled driver signature enforcement too.

Do I need to manually enter fastboot mode by pressing the power and volumn down button? I find it very difficult to do that with the casing off.

Let me know if there is anything else I could be missing. Thanks!
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] prahladyeri:
You can try an older version of the MiFlash tool from here and see if it detects anything:

Hi,

first of all thanks for the guide, it's all working but during the refresh (and flash) the tool give me an error: the lenght can't be lower than zero. name of parameter : zero

i'm stuck, maybe you can help me.

ty

Edit:

update: now the mi tool stop on "device is busy"

i tried different types of miflash but same result.

[00000B64]0	0.06	$nvflash --instance 0 --bct mocha_bct.cfg --setbct --odmdata 0x49C000 --configfile mocha_flash.cfg --create --bl bootloader.bin --wait --go

thanks for the help ;)
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] prahladyeri:
Since you seemed to have tried everything, the only thing I could have told you was to try a different miflash version. But since you have tried that too, I couldn't really think about anything in your situation, except:

1. Check the short-circuiting on sdcard again, the preciseness it needs to become steady is enormous.

2. Maybe you are using an incorrect ROM, are you sure its for MiPAD-1 ?
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] sbresc:
1 i think the circuit works but i'm not so sure because my pc see the device as apx - nvidia usb boot recovery even when i'm not making the circuit, and the result is the same.

2 i've not tried different ROMs but, right now, i'm trying the mocha_images_4.11.21_4.4_cn_7352dcd481

if could help: as i said i tried almost all the miflash tools and all of them return the same result --> "device is busy" with ID device --> "0", just the miflash 20160830 doesn't find the device at all (don't know why). Until now i tried on different pcs with different os.

I guess i'll proceed in the same way, trying different software, ROMs, os and PCs.

Thanks for now

Update2:

now it seems something get flashed, device stay busy but the tool flash the rom in 50s

[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] Parmo100:
I also Hardbricked mine. It seems to me that there are plenty of instructions of how to unbrick, but no help if nothing happens.

I assume you have read the Instructions. They are very good.

If you are using miflash and touching the SD card pads but nothing happens then best to use an older version of miflash, as the newer miflash versions do not recognize your mipad device. You only need 2 pieces of software, miflash and a mipad fastboot ROM. PC suite no longer works for new MIUI versions. . You do not need it. . Your miflash contains the necessary drivers, you don't have to change any settings in miflash, only the location of the image in main setting. If your drivers inside miflash are working, you will see Nvidia restore driver appearing in your device manager but this may only be temporary for 5 or 6 seconds, see next. Either end of cable can be added to socket, not important. If you still cannot see the Nvidia drivers, did you take off the battery connector? Did you disable driver signature checking? If nothing, then best to take it to a specialist.

After installing the correct miflash version, you will then hear a beep that shows that the Nvidia drivers are being installed, you can see these drivers in your device manager on PC/laptop. If your short circuit is not good enough you will see the drivers disappear and hear the beep and There will be some error on the miflash, I got "uid" error. This is almost certainly due to a poor short circuit NOTHING Else. Several posts mention the "parted" app being a possible cause, this is very very unlikely, the reason the drivers are disappearing is your short circuit not being good enough. Try using other tools to make your short circuit, the sd card slot pin tool was not good enough for me. The short circuit is the CRITICAL part, a poor short circuit is what is causing the drivers to disappear from your PC/laptop device manager. Try short circuits 100.times with different tools, Different PCs, different USB sockets, after 100 take it to a specialist.

The next stage is correct flashing, if your short circuit is good, you should see "APX" and "mipad" in your device manager. The Nvidia recovery driver remains in device manager. Flashing only takes a short time, around 1 minute. You will see the flashing progressing in the miflash. Eventually Android appears on mipad then installation. If NOT successful, look at the log files for clues as to what the problems are.

Hardbricked MIPad

Hi,

I hardbricked my MiPad while updating SuperSU. Clicked on a wrong button. Will try this later tonight. Thanks in advance. Hope the Pad revives....
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] Parmo100:
The most difficult part is getting the short circuit right, Saurabh. Turn volume up to hear and watch the device manager for drivers being installed. Don't stick anything into the SD card slot, you can see the 2 tiny square contacts at the mouth of the SD card slot. Don't give up easily , it is difficult though without good tools, try different metal items to get the short circuit !

Stuck in Mi Flash error (0x80004005: uid read failed) :(

Guys,

I have bricked my Mi PAD in the same way :(

I have rooted the pad and then mistakenly selected wrong recovery in SU Binary update.

Now even after following all the mentioned steps in this thread, stuck in MiFlash with below error :crying:

"unspecified error(0x80004005: uid read failed)"

Using older 2014 MiFlash since newer ones don't detect my Mi Pad in Win 10 64bit.

But it doesn't go beyond above error. If needed, I can share the flash log which contains the above error.

Thanks in advance ! Please help in recovering Mi Pad :(
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] Parmo100:
Can you see and hear the nvidia drivers being installed as mentioned in previous posts ?

If "yes" you haven't got a good enough short circuit , try other metal tools. The best is a set of callipers . Don't give in , yes it's difficult without the correct tools
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] sathish1849:
Yes, I got all drivers installed and tried for 4 hours getting my Mi Pad detected using right short circuit metal. Old MiFlash detects mine immediately after connecting USB to PC with Mi Pad short circuited.

But when I start the flash from MiFlash, it gets stuck in the error mentioned before :(

"unspecified error(0x80004005: uid read failed)"

Still no resolution for MiFlash too yet. New versions don't detect at all. :(
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] Parmo100:
Your short circuit is not good enough, try other tools. It is only lasting a short time and then stops. I had the same. Your short circuit must only last a few seconds then it will succeed.

[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] Galacticpunk:
You didn't read the steps above,please follow it carefully.

You need to disconnect the battery belt (the one that i have mentioned in the post).

Also your device when listed will mostly show as "0". whoever tried this method got the same name in the list.

for creating a short circuit please disconnect the battery. you don't need to connect it again. also use a piece of wire, its more reliable than other piece of metals.

Mother board got damaged

Sir,

Mine was in the same state. Initially, I took the device to service center, where they said that the mother board got damaged.

Here is my Question: Can you please suggest any other way to get all the data (images and videos of my kids) from the memory module of this device?

or

Shall I use this trick to UNBRICK my MiPad, In this condition? Will this trick even work for me? (as the technician said "the mother board got damaged")

(I'm aware that I'll lose all the data on the device).

Please suggest, TIA.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] Parmo100:
Yes go for it. Charge the Mipad then attempt to do the short circuit, If you can hear the mipad trying to load the drivers, then the mother board is OK and the unbricking is doable. Follow instructions above. The tool that you use is the key to success, if you can hear the drivers loading, and you still cannot get it working after 100 attempts, take it to a professional and explain what is required to get it working.

It is quite difficult to get the short circuit with normal tools.

Unspecified error ̣0x80004005: bootloader failed NvError 0x0

I created short circuit for my mipad. After click on the button flash, 1s after I have error message : Unspecified error ̣0x80004005: bootloader failed NvError 0x0. When the flash is stopped, the mipad is not detected by pc anymore and need unplug/replug to be connected. For me the short circuit is stable as as soon as I reconnect my mipad, my pc detects it immediately as Nvidia USB boot-recovery driver for Mobile devices. I don't know if someones have faced same issues like me and can share your experience with me. Thanks in advance

Edit: The problem is solved. Without hope, I reconnected the power belt while keeping the bridge of SD card. Then I tried the flash just for fun and it works.
[Xiaomi Mi Pad Guides, News, & Discussion] harpy.eagle:
i could successfully recover my hard bricked mi pad using this method. Awesome thread. Tks a lot. After struggling for sometime to keep contacts shorted firmly, i managed to do it finally.

Also i had to try multiple versions of miflash for flashing process to go through. Only one version detected tab properly and flashed it successfully. Other version couldnt detect the tab even after stable connection and device manager showing the right device.

Dont forget to disable driver signing for windows.
