What error are you getting?
I cldn’t boot my mi Max 2 to MIUI after using mi flash & numerous global stable roms. The phone is always stuck at the Android logo level and restarts itself.
Does mi flash wipe out the entire phone partitions and recreates the partitions again? It lloks as though something on the boot partitions is preventing it from booting successfully to MIUI even though the flashing is successful.
I am using the testpoint method with EDL & Mi Flash.
