And no issue.
Pcsuite want i connect my phone in normal mode first.
But i cant use my phone .
Only in recovery mode or fastboot mode...

Its really a bad joke :(

[Franis]

Now I have lost my data because of a lousy update!! >:D >:D >:D

[Mudasir]

When I move any thing to a hidden folder it still remains in the gallary with the new update... 12.0.3

I also faced the same issue on my Redmi 9 (4+64). Ooppsssss I lost my all data as a result of this.

Even I have faced this issue. Lost my entire data. This issue is not only occuring in Europe but in India too. Xiaomi should take this issue seriously. Credibility will be lost once again.

People slowly began to trust Xiaomi after the battery exploding issues. And now again update issues and all the data is getting lost.

the only issue i have encountered is the dark mode toggle on the control centre as it does not go directly into the settings menu when you hold it

I had this bootloop problem with 12.0.3.0(QGGEUXM)... You can fix it by reflashing recovery (e.g. TWRP) and then closing AVB 2.0 in advanced settings - Booted properly after!

New update in Europe no issues at all. All working perfectly.

[getitzack]

I got the same problem. I'am really anrgy about loosing all data.Grrrr >:D
Connecting with Mi-Flash and selecting the "save user data" option was not possible!! Last time Xiaomi.

[Arno Aalvanger]

I have no problems at all after installing the update.

[Mr Guozhong]

Same issue as me,sad.

[Gogo]

12.0.4.0 update, same problem. boot loop.

[Andy Cole]

Got the bootloop issue after 12.5 update. The only fix that worked is removing the SIM(s), booting up, then replacing the SIM. All goes smoothly until I need to reboot. Then follow the same procedure.
