Hello everyone,
I have flashed my "unlocked" tablet with MIFlash from stock miui 14.0.5.0 global to 14.0.8.0 global with MIFlash (with "clean all and lock" option).
The process finished succesfully, but then the tablet died :-( It is left in fastboot mode and locked.
Nothing works apart fastboot, I cant restart in recovery, I cant restart in EDL, adb doesnt work. Only fastboot.
To restart in edl I tried different methods, but none of them worked:
fastboot oem edl
fastboot reboot-edl
keeping pressed vol+ and power
keeping pressed vol- and power
keeping pressed vol+ and vol- and power
MIFlash doesnt work anymore because it detect my tablet as locked
MIUnlock doesnt work becasue it tells me to add my device in the specific setting but of course I cant access my tablet anymore.
I also had a look at the QFIL tool but as I cant enter EDL then the tablet is not recognized as Qulacom, always this damn "android bootloader" and this damn orange "fastboot" writing on the screen.
the only thing I didnt try is to open the tablet for the test point.
Is there any advice? Is it possible to bring my new tablet back to life
thanks in advance

You should avoid relocking your bootloader especially after modifying the firmware. Reflashing the firmware doesn't seem to help.
Your best bet would be to somehow unlock the bootloader in EDL mode

Yes I understood that I should enter in EDL.
The problem is that no matter what I do I cant do.
Maybe some tools or other key combinations.
No idea
Thanks in advance for any idea about how to enter edl!!
Cheers
Test Points most likely but I don't know it for this model

This post is quite old, but I had the same problem. Did you find a way to enter EDL mode for the MiPad6?
I also tried EDL V2 cable, it's also can't help

Device: Xiaomi Pad 6 China, model 23043RP34C, codename pipa, 256GB. Windows 64-bit PC.
In 2024, I tried installing unofficial firmware. It failed, and the tablet has been stuck in Fastboot ever since.
Current state:
- Bootloader locked (`unlocked: no`).
- Recovery reboots to Fastboot.
- FastbootD fails: `Failed to boot into userspace fastboot`.
- `fastboot flashing get_unlock_ability` returns `0`.
- Slot A is unbootable. Switching to slot B is blocked.
What I tried:
- EDL commands: `fastboot oem edl`, `fastboot reboot-edl`, `fastboot reboot edl` — failed or unsupported.
- OSS TEAM W231 EDL cable, different connection sequences — no Qualcomm 9008. Device Manager shows `Android Bootloader Interface`.
- MiFlash detects Fastboot but refuses flashing because the bootloader is locked.
- MiUnlockTool returns error 20045: account region does not match device sales region. The originally linked account belongs to my sister and has region RU. Selecting China as the tool's data center did not help.
- XiaoMiTool V2 failed with `Missing serviceToken cookie`.
- Downloaded official China Fastboot ROM `OS2.0.20.0.UMZCNXM`. GPT files are present, but flashing `gpt_both1.bin` fails with `Flashing is not allowed in Lock State`.
- Latest Google Platform Tools also cannot boot FastbootD.
- Official Xiaomi service in Russia said they could not restore it due to sanctions.
I need to restore the stock firmware, preferably without opening the tablet or paying for authorized EDL service.
Is there any working way to enter EDL or recover this exact model with a locked bootloader? I would be very grateful for a free solution or detailed instructions.
Thank you!
