Stuck in fastboot mode

RocketRaccoon

So my redmi k30 is stuck in fastboot mode since last night after I unlocked the bootloader and tried to flash a global rom. I have tried to get out of it by powering on and off, holding down the volume down and power button as well as both volume buttons and power button but it is completely stuck.

Has anyone come across this before and can help me get it back?

Not sure if these will help but worth a try:

Managed to sort it and get on to a global ROM this evening after an abundance of googling and YouTube videos. What an absolute nightmare it turned out to be but all good now and free of all the bloatware and restrictions.

Just don't lock the bootloader again on Global rom, may result in a brick.



"If you are using China ROM on your Global device or using Global ROM on your China device then don't lock your device bootloader. If you can try to lock your device bootloader it can be bricked. Then you need to unlock it again or need an authorized account for flashing in EDL mode."

Articles are dated but risk still remains I think?

I won't be going near it with the laptop again, it's not worth the stress.
