Hi guys I have a problem, I had in my hands a p7 of an old owner who does not know how he had cleared the imei and the cell did not take more, never mind if it could not restore it I would have used only with wifi but last night in an attempt to insert a hypothetical backup imei think I damaged part of the system and the bootloader because now the phone in question after the restart does not turn any more, and the LED flashes twice green then red twice and twice again green
Any key combination I try not do anything and if I connect it to the PC is detected with an unknown device name in Chinese ._. how can I rearrange the tuttooo ?? you help me prrgo T.T
thanks in advance to everyone I apologize if I had to put it in the post modding but I'm not sure where it belongs thanks
No one can help me?? D:
Do you have adb installed on your pc?
If so, is it working and does it show the serial number of the phone when typing adb devices?

Depends on how you were trying to restore imei. Describe step by step what have you done?
i've use 5iromtoolbox on my p7 with root and flash a corrupt imei backup (i think it was of another huawei phone) i don't think it can be bring at hardbrick :'(
P7 keeps imei in other partition than 5iromtoolbox makes backup of. Shortly, if you could make backup with this tool before and then try to restore it, you were just reflash some partition without any affect on imei but and without any consequences for device. But you have flashed partition from absolutely other device...
Blinking led means that some partition is corrupted or even maybe partition table. If it could be some partition that can be reflashed via fastboot, you could have a chance to unbrick it. But it's not.
Now the only way to unbrick it - is full reflash of whole memory using some manufacturer's hardware tool. So you're right, it's hardbricked.
Bring it to service. But I presume they will you offer replace of whole board that is comparable with price of the new device.
yes...there isn't no solution to flash new partition unless hardware flash tool? or ther is a guide to flash it (i think no)?
Hi,
After trying to flash I was like you can see in the image "nv data corrupted", does anyone know how to solve it?

"Trying to flash" , what exactly did you flash ?
How do you flash it ?
Why dont you flash TWRP followed by ROM of any choice ?
NV normally contained in EFS partition, which can be backed up and flash from TWRP and QPST.
But again, your description is far from clear for us to help you.

When you flash using TWRP, did you actually managed to boot into system ? Or it stuck in recovery ?
Where did the nv corrupted notification appear when u were using TWRP ?
Prior to facing this issue, what you actually did ? I mean, did this phone work before ? Before you start getting this error, what you did, what you install, what you flash, what you delete ? Or did it just suddenly happen with nothing modified ?

Boot up to the Android logo and then return to recovery.
I flashed a room and lost the imei, I tried to recover with a qcn I found but I must have done something wrong.

You gonna need to ask someone to backup their QCN, take out the imei info, give it to you, and flash it using QPST.

I can't use qpst, because I can't activate usbdebug and the diag port.
Is it possible to give me a hand?

This is absolutely not a issue, that requires using Qpst
You simply need to wipe data and follow the on screen prompts. (You will lose all data on your phone.) However the phone will work again.

Sorry that you are having these issues, But my comment was based on the photo that was posted on the OP. Typically formatting is the resolution. If you no longer have that screen available, you should contact an authorised repair center to fix it for you.
Otherwise If the phone is bound to your account, you could try what is listed here: https://www.mobilerdx.com/2019/02/xiaomi-mi-8-test-point-boot-xiaomi-mi-8-into-edl-9008-mode.html
Scams or Actual Fixes?
I have recently read about supposed hacks that according to a couple of Chinese BBS sites, has worked for some that require buying a specialised Jtag programming tool which cost about $60, that you use along with altered versions of following files: prog_emmc_firehose_8909.mbn.elf, mi8 persist image, rawprogram0, frp and a patch file. All of which that can all be obtained from here: https://romprovider.com/2019/09/mi-account-remove-xiaomi/ ( UMT Download)
Supposedly Chimera is another option: https://chimeratool.com/en/docs Again I have not used any of these tools with the mi8, I am merely sharing what I read about recently.
By the time you have spent the money acquiring the tools, it seems that you are better off just mailing the phone off to be repaired by an official repair center. Here is a web page that provides a list of official repair centers : https://www.pinoytechnoguide.com/2014/06/xiaomi-service-centers.html
Good Luck and try anything mentioned above at your own risk.
Edit: Have you tried the Flashall.bat method?
That should work since you are seeing the com port.

Hello, thank you for your answer, the mother is not linked to my account I disconnected to do the experiments. in my country i don't have a xiaomi assistance center, i get the error missmatching image and device.
There is no other way to unbrick without buying these tools so expensive that you mentioned

root cause of your issue is that you play with wrong qcn and messed up the nv,
wince you cant plugged to qpst, you need someone to make EFS backup for you torestore from twrp
You can restore phones imei if your bootloader is unlocked but only 2nd sim slot will work

You need backup EFS and Modem via TWRP first(better with OrangeFox). After you need Magisk first and some manipulation with QCN file via QPST. I will write it later

Maui Meta is for MTK cpu phones. You need QPST
Note 8 Pro is MTK Device
Hello,
I'm in quite the panic, as this is my daily driver.
It has been about 6 years since I have been on the XDA scene, and boy do I feel silly. I made the cardinal sin of not making back ups and plunging into a exciting tutorial on here to enable voLTE on my ROG 2. At some point the requested commands were executed as per the thread:
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Since this point, my phone has been completely without service, and after nearly 12 hours of trying numerous fixes, I ask for help of the kind users of XDA once again.
My phone does have the boot loader unlocked, and is rooted. I have tried nearly every IMEI and EFS restore option on here, and even went as far as trying similar QCN and EFS flashes of other phones with the same chipset to no avail.
I believe at this point I need a kind user to upload their EFS partitions, or QCN backups (of course with their information masked) so I may flash my phone and edit my IMEI in the image. Or if anyone else knows of a better method im all ears.
Thank you all in advanced.
i guess someone earlier had a similar issue and was provided with the QCN file.

Heyo!
My Mi9T after updating to miui 12 stopped getting sim card signal and a local repair shop said it's because the phone has no IMEI number!????
What should i do now? How to resolve this issue?
Flash persist.img in recovery if you have a backup....
3 STEPS for you :
1. well , if you don't have efs/modemst's backups to restore, ITS NOT LOOKING GOOD.
2. next logical step try a fastboot rom flash , if IMEI is not restored , ITS BAD.
3. your device needs an IMEI repair , better done by a proffessional (he uses some hardware to repair the imei).
Best of luck to you

You cannot find them, they are specific to your phone , they have info on your IMEI numbers and device specific IDs ,so flashing other people's files would mess up your phone even more.
DO not flash FASTBOOT Image unless you backup your "persist" partition as you would lose other important stuff that cannot be recovered.
You have to root your phone , backup your persist partition , then flash Fastboot ROM to see if your IMEIs are restored.
If not , then IMEI repair is the way to go , just find a good repair shop and they will do it for you.
Hello,

While rotating, I dumped the entire system.
Eventually I bought a second phone and made a copy of the system (mtkclient).
After completing the system, the phone fired and I managed to root it, but GSM does not work (no IMEI)
How to restore IMEI? someone will suggest?
if you not made backup -
IMEI: seen in opporeserve2
ICCID1: seen in nvdata
serial: seen in nvram nvdata expdb
MAC(wifi+BT): seen in nvdata nvram proinfo
additionaly suggested: opporeserve1+ opporeserve3 +expdb +frp +md1img +cdt_engineering
then may be problematic ...
if all already lost and nothing more to backup - can try

I think you are right about the signature here.
I made a full clone from a second identical phone and it didn't take IMEI.
I read from the Internet that the DownloadTool_RCSM tool (included with the stock rom) fixes the problem with IMEI, but after launching it requires authorization. Anyone found a solution to bypass the authorization of DownloadTool_RCSM for RMX3085?
