[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] scott86:
Followed instructions elsewhere that said to flash the newest miui rom(xiaomi.eu_multi_HMNote9Pro_HMNote9S_V14.0.4.0.SJWMIXM_v14-12) over it, then boot knowing that it wont actually load(i guess to update vendor or some other partition) and then re-flash the lineage, and that seems to have fixed the audio issue(and i now have a different boot splash screen prior to the lineage booting animation, so that worked i guess 🤷🏻‍♂️).

Still have problems with the phone syncing with my google account(contacts) but maybe that'll fix itself.

Battery seems to still be draining faster than before too.

It's for poco m2 pro if decoded the password and if we got the firehose from this zip file then also we can't burn redmi note 9s firmware as it would say that the device is incompatible like error I haven't tried but thinking to do it
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] Ice cream 4:
Still there isn't a way to unbrick redmi note. 9s for free . Guys is it true that there isn't any method to unbrick 9s without auth 🥺
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] Ice cream 4:
Maybe should try the redmi note 9 pro max firehose 🤔
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] Yuu(ゆう):
I found no auth firehose file.

{Mod edit: Link to paid services website removed. Oswald Boelcke, Senior Moderator}

But It can't be used for flash.It returns this error.

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] timjharvey:
Folks, my 9s was hard bricked for 2 years, then I randomly tried using the miflash tool, to recover from EDL mode. and it worked. I think that's because MiFlash has whatever certificates or authentication built into it.

Hey which version of miui did u flashed

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] riyan65:
Does note 9 pro support mmcblk0 file method? Can someone check if it available in device.

Here is the procedure to check:-

1) Open a terminal in your linux.

2) adb devices (This step assumes that adb and fastboot are in linux system path)

3) adb shell

4) su -

5) You are in root shell now.

6) cat /proc/partitions.

7) check if mmcblk0 partition available

If the partitions is available, let me know. I know a method to unbrick the device.

It need to be done on a working device.

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] deafmetal:
I have the exact same problem with my note 9 pro - hardbricked during a custom rom flash - blinking screen with both power and fastboot but not doing either. I am waiting for an EDL cable to arrive. Thankfully I have a verified account so hopefully it will work.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
I hope your phone will get well soon..

But for your information, my account also verified..the verification doesn't mean it has the authorization to do the flash via edl mode..
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] lolo9393:
Hello

I am curious to know what you going to do with an EDL cable if it is the same we made use for RN3 recovery some years ago.

Same apply to "verified" account as said in previous post.

I wish you the best.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] bawitdol:
i think you can get authorization with your old phone equipped with the current usim

after taking authorization, take off the usim and insert in the note 9s
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] galaxy6220:
You know guys, with all these reports of soft brick/hard bricking/account authorization etc, it's really put me off flashing any new custom ROM at the moment until there's a solid step by step tutorial that we can all follow that points out what to do and outline what not to do.

I really feel the pain for those of you having these issues and hope you get your phones recovered ASAP.

It just seems too high risk for me to trash a brand new (albeit bug ridden) phone.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] deafmetal:
Right, that makes sense. Thanks for that.

---------- Post added at 12:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:05 PM ----------

I don't blame you - I had rooted my Note 7 pro with no issues at all - only reason I wanted to change phone was because of the stuipd cellular signal issue.

But yeah , only had the note 9 pro for a week :(
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] galaxy6220:
I'm sure they'll be some sound instructions out there soon, there are many people flashing with success stories out there, if someone had the time to do a youtube tutorial that would be so helpful!

I've flashed loads of roms before, and recently flashed the excellent Evolution X on my Redmi note 5 pro, but it seems a lot more comes in to play with the 9S.

I've had my phone about a month now. I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it very easily with Magisk, but that's it for now, I'd be so gutted if I bricked it.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
I have use the same account but when i tried to flash the mi auth thing pop up said that my account doesn't authorized to download bla bla bla
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
I'm using custom rom currently on my redmi note 3 pro because it got hardbrick after i flashed it with mi rom..after that i decided to continue using custom rom till now..

So i'm not sure about what you have said.

By the way..thank you for the reply
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
For the time being, there are only paid way i saw on the internet..have to pay 28usd then they will remotely control our laptop/pc to do the flashing process..all we have to do is see the process & wait until finish..

But in that way, the problem will still be exist without we knowing the solution to solve it by ourself..

So i don't ever prefer that paid way?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] galaxy6220:
I see, yes the people with the knowhow are profiteering for now which is a big shame. Many of us here are taking risks and bricking phones. Hopefully very soon they won't be taking profit when someone in XDA helps us with a clear, precise tutorial. Unfortunately my knowledge on flashing ROMS is limited and outdated, I wish I could help.

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] fajarep:
i've similar problem, after install twrp from one of the "google" twrp for redmi note 9 pro/s(curtana). i install mi-globe rom(curtana) based, and the got those blinking, can't go to fastboot and recovery anymore. deep flash cable for going to edl mode is not working either. i bring to official xiaomi service center, i think they use test point to go to edl mode(they open back cover, to check warranty), and my phone is good again..
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
How much you have to pay to the service center?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] fajarep:
it is free, official waranty. i just said, i don't know, my friend play with it. because i believe they can't check either, fastboot not working, recovery not working :). they said, maybe you got bad update, so file system is corrupt :) they don't care with unlock bootloader status when everything already fine. the moral story, DON'T USE CURTANA based on joyeuse rom, not sure if TWRP is another problem or not
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
Yeah me too..i got brick because trying flashing the curtana rom from xiaomi.eu

I don't know that the redmi note 9 pro has 2 variant

its not safe to you curtana roms for joyeuse? im confuse on what to use. i check my phone using Device Info HW it says my unit is Joyeuse so i need to use the Joyuse guide?

Not save 100%..it was a different codename already
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
For the time being, don't flash any rom for your joyeuse yet
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] lolo9393:
Better to tell:

-Use latest joyeuse.fix twrp available at T.me.

-Or flash fastboot eu rom available here

BUT don't flash GLOBE ROM that leads to EDL mode if you reboot system.

In case you installed it, like I did on Curtana, Just reboot in twrp with power/vol+ and reflash EU rom twrp version.

GLOBE ROM must be modified or taken away from their site.

how did you flash it?

Did you report to EU dev about your issue?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
Via twrp..i'm not yet report it since i don't open an account on that forum

I downloaded it since it shows redmi note 9 pro name on the file from that site..

But when the flashing process running, it shows curtana meanwhile my phone is joyeuse..after the flashing process finish it shows successful flashing but when i reboot it got to hardbrick
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
The latest version for redmi note 9 pro something like v11.0.9 bla bla bla i don't remember

All the file is in the hardbrick phone:crying:

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
Yeah i'm really sure i have downloaded the wrong file..

Because i've experienced it before with my redmi 3s..got hardbrick because of flashing rom that not for it:laugh:

But luckily i got it back since it was before the mi auth thing happens
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] lolo9393:
Good!

We are many doing that kind of mistake, that's why we learn from them.

Normally a good TWRP prevent you to do that.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] bawitdol:
how about this?

1. flash miui stock with mi flash

2. reboot into bootloader

3. fastboot flash recovery lrtwrp.img

4. reboot into recovery

5. flash custom rom
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] catalunya5:
You cannot flash anythin, because pc cannot connect device. Maybe only fixing progress with edl mode. But not sure.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] fajarep:
yes, usually TWRP will block not match custom ROM. while existing TWRP redmi note 9 pro that i know is based on curtana, so no wonder mi-globe rom will install fine, because it is based on curtana. it is bad for JOYEUSE redmi note 9 pro

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] Hnk1:
To everyone having these issues

It can be solved if you use firehose method but you'll need the setting for for it.

I think I have seen some custom miflash tools version as well.

I'm posting a link. Maybe using an older version helps?

https://xiaomiwiki.github.io/wiki/Tools_for_Xiaomi_devices.html#xiaomiadb-by-francesco-tescari

The only known method is either use chimaera tools or an authenticated account .
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
Thank you in advance ?❤️

I'll try it later..right now i can't download anything..my internet kuota was running out of data..:eek:
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
Yeah you still can unlock your bootloader..just don't messing around and wait for official twrp for your phone..don't use any patched recovery

If you wanna install root or magisk, try using adb method rather than unofficial twrp recovery for the time being
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
By the way, i have tried using older version of miflash before but the flashing was stucked..i'm suspecting it was in the progammer file that is the file named "prog_ufs_firehouse_sm6250_ddr.elf"

Maybe the authentication thing stick in that file that must be rid off..i don't know

It was just my assumption

I have tried all of it and none of them work..still mi auth be the problem
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] AceMasterHan:
I'm stuck in the same boat. Tried to flash the pixel experience rom and now I have the screen that flashes on and off every second. Can't get into recovery or fastboot. I'm debating taking the thing apart and try shorting the pins to get to EDL but it sounds like even that won't do me any good. I've had nothing but problems with Xiaomi phones and I'm about done with them at this point. Very frustrating.

I know it's likely because I screwed something up but still any other phone I've screwed up I've been able to fix. Now I have two hard bricked Xiaomi phones.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] AceMasterHan:
I managed to get into EDL mode but am having the authentication problem. Any way to get around that using QFIL?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] navi_58861170:
You can do one this open fastboot command windows & go to extracted rom folder, then drag flashall.bat into fastboot command window & let all process finish......i have noticed mi flash tool doesnt work in newer devices but i have unbricked hard bricked device with this process
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] AceMasterHan:
To answer my own question in case anyone else is going down the same path... I've tried QFIL and a handful of other tools and methods with no luck. Anything I've tried to throw at it has given some sort of error that basically amounts to "you can't flash anything without authentication". It's built into the chip.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
Yeah..i'm also done with xiaomi thing from now..will never ever buy from them again
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
Yeah me too..i've been trying using a lot of software, qfil,mct,mrt,mi flash & many more but i've got the same result which is failed to flash..damn it xiaomi..urggghhh:mad:
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] getsuga92:
So you boot into fastboot mode first don't you?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] AceMasterHan:
Same here. I thought I was getting a good deal on the hardware and honestly you get a lot of bang for your buck if you can just use it as-is. Unfortunately MIUI is just not for me and I'm a tinkerer at heart so I can't just leave things alone. So now I've got a hard bricked RN8Pro AND RN9Pro. That's around $500 down the drain.

I refuse to buy a phone that doesn't have a 3.5mm headphone jack, SD slot, and root access available. It's getting harder and harder to fimd a device that meets those requirements and I thought Xiaomi was the answer but with the way they lock things down to "authorized accounts" it's back to the drawing board unless they change their practices. It's a shame really.

I'll keep these phones for a bit just in case a solution becomes available though I'm not holding my breath. If not I'll probably end up seeing if anyone around here wants them for anything. I couldn't see myself using them as a daily driver at this point anyway.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] riyan65:
Exchange the device with Motorola one fusion+, for root and ROM support.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] AceMasterHan:
Oh wow I hadn't even heard of that one until now. At a glance it looks like it fits the bill perfectly. I'll definitely be looking into it. Thanks for the tip!
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] Hnk1:
I know it's frustrating and disappointing but as I said before only two known methods till now.

1. Have an authenticated MI Account

2. Have chimera tools and flash with it. ( I'm not sure if newer versions are supported )

This leaves you with three options

1. Ask Xiaomi Service center, they'll do it for you

2. Ask local software /mobile repair shop. Sometimes they have some specific box / cables which can bypass authenticated requirement.

3.The worse is you ask someone who has an authentic mi flash account and he flashes it for you . I have heard it costs 25$.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] AceMasterHan:
Unfortunately there aren't any Xiaomi Service Centers anywhere even relatively near me. I looked into Chimera tool and it's very expensive and it seems there's no guarantee that it would even work. I've thought about trying to find someone with an authorized account to flash it for me but it's hard to know who to trust and I'm unsure about dumping more money into this phone. I may end up having to go that route but I suppose it's also the principal of the matter. Having to pay someone to fix it simply because Xiaomi locks it down just rubs me the wrong way. If I wanted to deal with that kind of nonsense I might as well go with apple. Perhaps I'll get over my stubbornness and do it anyway though if only to have something other than an expensive paperweight.

---------- Post added at 06:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:48 PM ----------

How your phone right now can it enter edl mode?

So from previous bricked phone. It can enter edl mode with test poin. But some say to try with 3 button power vol + and vol- at same time than connect to pc and check with adb fastboot. Just type "fastboot devices". If your phone can enter to edl mode it can be flash with miflash but it will require special account from xiaomi and my friend here have that kind of account but it so old from mido era so idk if it still can be used to day.
