Right from flashing custom ROMs or installing a custom recovery, there’s a lot of things that you could try out. Along the same lines, you could also gain administrative privileges by rooting your device via Magisk. However, all these tweaks do bring in an element of risk with them themselves. Just a slight error and your device might end up in a bootloop or bricked state. Fortunately, there’s an easy way out. You could unbrick your Redmi Note 11 (5G) device via Fastboot Commands. And this guide will show you how to do just that. Follow along.

Unbrick Redmi Note 11 via Fastboot Commands

The below instructions are listed under separate sections for ease of understanding. Make sure to follow in the exact same sequence as mentioned. Droidwin and its members wouldn’t be held responsible in case of a thermonuclear war, your alarm doesn’t wake you up, or if anything happens to your device and data by performing the below steps.

STEP 1: Download Android SDK

To begin with, download and install the Android SDK Platform Tools. This is the official ADB binary file provided by Google and is used to execute ADB and Fastboot Commands. So download and then extract it to any convenient location on your PC. Doing so shall give you the platform-tools folder, which we will be using throughout this guide.

STEP 2: Download Redmi Note 11 Fastboot ROM

Next up, download the Fastboot ROM for your device. As for this guide, I am using the Redmi Note 11 Fastboot Stable ROM version V12.5.3.0.RGBCNXM [Direct Download Link]. You are free to try any version of your choice, but it is recommended to try the newer builds only and of your region. To download the firmware, you may use the official MIUI Forum. Or if that is inaccessible, you may also take the help of a third-party site such as Xiaomi Firmware Updater. Furthermore, if you wish to understand the Xiaomi Fastboot firmware version, you may refer to our comprehensive guide on What is MIUI Fastboot ROM for Xiaomi, Mi, Redmi, Poco Devices. Or here’s the instruction in short,

12.5.3.0 – Firmware versionR – Android version (R-> Android 11).GB – Smartphone model code (KT= Redmi Note 11)CN – Firmware build type (CN for China | IN for India | MI for Global | EU for Europe)XM – Firmware version code​

Now that you have got hold of the required firmware file, proceed ahead to the next step to unbrick Redmi Note 11 via Fastboot Commands.

STEP 3: Move Redmi Note 11 Fastboot ROM Files to ADB Folder

STEP 4: Boot Bootloop/Soft Bricked Redmi Note 11 to Fastboot Mode

STEP 5: Unbrick Redmi Note 11 via Fastboot Commands

[NOTE: These commands are only for Redmi Note 11 (Region: China | Codename: evergo) and shouldn’t be tried on any other device]. To begin with, head over to the platform-tools folder, type in CMD in the address bar, and hit Enter. This will launch the Command Prompt. Now type in the following two commands, one at a time, in this CMD window to erase the partition and the metadata: Once done, you may now execute the below commands to flash the stock firmware files to their respective partitions. As before, make sure to copy-paste one command at a time. Moreover, if you get any error after executing any of these commands, then don’t leave the process mid-way. Rather continue executing the rest of the commands and then check the results. The second last command will set your active partition to A and the last command will automatically boot your device to the OS. However, if your device is still not booting to the OS, then you will have to take the nuclear approach of factory resetting your device (which will delete all the data). So with your device booted to Fastboot Mode, execute the below command to wipe your device: After that, execute all the aforementioned commands, one at a time, starting from the three fastboot erase commands all the way up to the last fastboot reboot command. On that note, we round off this guide to unbrick Redmi Note 11 via Fastboot Commands. If you have any queries concerning the aforementioned steps, do let us know in the comments. We will get back to you with a solution at the earliest.
