Xiaomi Mi8 no SIM cards and Wifi, random reboots after update to xiaomi.eu 19/12/2019 - Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers

Hello, I flashed my mi8 like I do every week.
This week I flashed the xiaomi.eu weekly rom, used it for 10hours, then my phone randomly restarted, and now it don't detect SIM cards and don't turn on WIFI, and the phone restart every X minutes.
I think the persist partition has gone. I can't find it on TWRP.
Any help?
Thank you

I used the same I ever used, but a very old one? Do you think it's related to twrp?

I sent my phone to checked by a professional, because it fell from the couch in the afternoon, and everything is working, no shorts.
Now I was almost 100% that the 19/12/2019 update ****ed my phone.
I already bought a realme x2 , because this is my 2nd xiaomi that die out of nowhere, the last one was a Mi4, random shutted down, and never went back to life.
Is your Mi8 chinese or globa versionl?
Mine is chinese

Same problem (global version). Did you fix It?

Hey guys, im from brazil and have same problem, anybody have a help?
Im trying unlock my fastboot for downgrade rom.

I found a fix, remove SIM card, wait 10 seconds, power off phone, put SIM cards back inside and boot the phone

This issue has happened on many phones over the past 5 years, and it can definitely be resolved, it has nothing to do with unlocking anything, it's a encryption problem.
It is possible that when Mi-Cloud attempts to register your sim card, that some sort of security packet is downloaded to the phone for your protection. Ensure that you can sign into your mi_cloud account and locate your device, if using Miui. Also, be sure that you have international texts enabled, they text just once or twice so it doesn't cost more than a few cents.
With all of that being said a persist issue isn't the same thing as a sim card issue, and if you phone will not boot you are well past taking out your sim card. The easiest and fastest solution is to restore your persist partition from a TWRP backup, if you have one.
If that is not an option follow my instructions here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79824537&postcount=2

If you are meaning that your bootloader is locked then the only option ( if your phone is linked to your MiCloud account) Is to return to a stock rom using Miflash or by downloading a fast boot images rom and using the flash all.bat method. The link that I provided earlier has a fast boot images rom linked.
Clarify whether or not you can access fastboot. If you can in fact access fast boot, and you previously used custom ROMs the instructions for installing TWRP are on the official TWRP website. You simply use ADB to push it yo the recovery partition.

hey whats up man,I hope u still answers questions I really hope you do because I'm in a dire situation where is my xiaomi mi8 cant connect to my sim card .It all started this year after a use of this phone since 2019 january.After my trip overseas , I got my own national sim card in again after that it occurs the problem at first was not that consistent,sometimes it detects, sometimes its good,after a while I thought that the sim card is loose so I wedged the simcard with a bit of paper,about sometime it works and then it starts to overheat when it doesn't detect the sim card inside and starts to reboot on its own, if I remove my simcard,its all good I can use wifi without overheating,how can I actually solve this problem? i quite believe that mi account /micloud that is causing all of this? whats your opinion on this? Im not an expert at all.Thanks for your time of reading this

then twrp applied that zip and then i clicked reboot after applying it sucessfully.
then it stuck on MI Logo for 4 hours and then the same i tried everything nothing is working only i am able to enter fastboot mode.
i even tried Stable and DEV build both via MI PC Suite but it stuck at 50% saying " sending pmic.mbn "
Now from 3 days i dont have phone Really frustated even i applied with both accounts [email protected] and [email protected] none of them is approved yet for unlocking Bootloader.

We are in the same boat mate..
Standing to lose all the data on my fone..
Thanks to xiaomi..
We are aware of this issue and we are working on a fix. My personal opinion this "locked bootloader" is useless.. If someone doesnt want to play around with it they will just leave it. Anyway... The should be an update of Mi Suite soon that will fix this problem, thank god that I didnt update lol

Well most beta testers used Xiaomi's reccovery which worked fine with the update so they did not end up in a bootloop but for users like us using TWRP it was otherwise. Try doing a request again maybe? Write bit more details etc. I do apologise for the inconvenience of this update being released, I'm happy i never updated myself as I do use my phone a lot for business purposes which is very vital.
I'm using this, is it the older version? working well.
xiaomi.eu_multi_leo_V7.1.4.0.LXHCNCK_v7-5.1.zip
No updates showing in updater. I s everyone saying they now have no phone?
I need phone for work why am I having no issues.
I see no way back as the update disables fastboot. Luck and only luck stopped me applying the update.
Posted another req for unlock..keeping my fingers crossed..
So whats the best course of action? thinking return to stable, lock bootloader and sell. Anyone got a better idea?

Exactly what @arkabose said. You can also disable automatic download.
So this looks like the only option for the lucky ones who haven't locked their bootloader.

1. Due to large amounts of requests, please wait for 10-12 days after submitting your application. If you haven't get any info after 10-12 days, please make a thread on en.miui with your Xiaomi account number, we will check it for you. Thanks for understanding
2. The unlocking procedure only supports MIUI China developer version (6.1.12 or later version) currently. MIUI China stable version will get supported in future updates
3. Some Mi Note Pro users could not unlock bootloader after updating to 6.1.12. This issue will be solved in the next update

Stuck on honor logo

Ive had this problem for ages and tried everything i can think of. hopefully by now someone has experienced the same problem and solved it.
*My phone is stuck on honor boot logo
*i can access e-recovery
*i can access stock recovery
*i can access fastboot and device is recognised on my laptop
* i can wipe cache and factory reset successully and have done many times
*i can and have used the dload (3 button method) to flash stock rom successfully
Now the problem is that although i have flashed the earliest stock rom NEM-L51C432B102 it fails saying incorrect package!!!i think this is because my phone came with B103 or B104 and you can only flash from what your phone originally had and up.
I have flashed NEM-L51C432b120 and also NEM-L51C432b130 and although it says successful it reboots and remains stuck on honor boot logo!
I have entered fastboot and i can issue commands but they all fail saying REMOTE COMMAND NOT ALLOWED.
I can't use ADB because it doesn't recognise my device. Obviously ADB and FASTBOOT wont work because i can't access developper options and select enable USB debugging or OEM Unlock because the phone is stuck on honor boot logo.
Also my bootloader must be locked. I have the unlock code but i can't issue the command FASTBOOT OEM UNLOCK XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX because as mentioned before it says FAILED REMOTE COMMAND NOT ALLOWED.
I have even tried flashing rollback packages(there isnt one for NEM-L51)for other models, followed by flashing stock rom for my model device.
When i bought the phone it came with either the B103 or B104 package but after months of searching i can't find on the internet.
Is my phone a lost cause??? is it hard bricked? So i am praying that there is a guru out there who can solve this very strange problem.
Many thanks in advance.

Oh well. Seriously this is the same issue my frn asked me to help. This is soo serious that we can only unbrick through update.app or else service center. Since u said dload method works but stucks device on bootlogo. U need to visit service center if under Warranty

Flash these files and it should, most probably, be fine.
use dload method as given here- https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73954487&postcount=240
as there are many different opinions on this method of using only update.app file but thats not true and it should be all the files.
Main file - http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G1165/g104/v71812/f1/full/update.zip
Data file- http://update.hicloud.com:8180/TDS/...1812/f1/full/hw/eu/update_data_full_hw_eu.zip
Flash both the files in order. 1st file will restore your system but then you need to have 2nd file so that apps are installed and all working fine.
After 1st file, it may reboot on its own and stuck on honor logo, reboot to recovery and then do factory reset, it will be fine.
Then let it boot to set up. Dont set your phone. Shutdown and flash the 2nd file.
boot and set up.
Good luck. Please provide feedback once done. In case of further issue, let me know and will dig more into this.

you cant follow simple instructions? you shouldnt be on this forum if youre not ready to lose data or brick your device.
Thanks for your input so far people. Much appreciated. @shashank1320 I am downloading the files you suggested and will flash them exactly according to your instructions. I will get back to you in a couple of days with the result. Fingers crossed.

Unfortunately my warranty has expired. The annoying thing is that if i had sent my device off six months ago when this first happened it would still be under warranty but in the UK there is only 1 service center, yes 1, and its hundreds of miles away! So i figured i could solve it myself. You live and learn.
Hey there everyone. I still havent managed to solve the issue with my device and its not through lack of trying. I have re downloaded all of the stock firmwares that you can possibly find on the internet. I also found one ive necer seen before. Its a full service repair b355. Fingers crossed, a miracle might happen and it will just boot up like when i first bought it. to begin with tho, i'm going to start with b102 and work through them b120, b130 ,b130rollback ,b350(beta), b350, b355 and then the b355 full service repair! I also got a couple of rollback packages(around 80mb) if all else fails.
I know, i'm nuts!! Finally before i admit defeat i'm going to part with £15 to buy credits for the dc-unlocker and dcPhoenx programs. From what ive read it has a good chance of solving it. I've taken soooo long before considering this option because i think its wrong that someone(s) is making loads of money from this. Why havent huawei/honor included a similar program in hi-suite. Anyway ive gone off on a tangent.
One last question though. Strangely enough i only just thought of it recently....
Is it a necessity to have your sim card in the tray as well as the sd-card????? All this time i havent had a sim in the phone as its in a crappy old one so i can still communicate with the world!!!!
Thank you to everyone for taking your time to read this. I hope a solution is possible.

No need of sim card in tray while using dload. Just sd card is fine. Let me go through it again and try to help before you go for 15 dollars for dc phoenix

Did you flash those files i given? If not can try. Else i will have to look for other alternative
yeah i downloaded those files you had mentioned in your post and followed the instructions to the letter.
I've got a suggestion if you have tried all these above.
Can you try the following on ADB and then try to unlock OEM again.
fastboot oem relock YourUnlockCode
I've done the same and it helped, even when bootloader displayed UNLOCKED. Please try it. :good::good:

@shashank1320 Hi, i have similar problem with my NEM-L21 device... I tried to flash the Elite ROM v5.1 but i didnt succeed so i decided to restore my old rom from backup with TWRP. When i restored it it just didnt load. It was stuck on honor logo for a long time. I tried the dload method many times but nothing worked so far. I even tried unbrick it with HUAWEI Multi-tool but it also didnt worked.

@shashank1320 Hi, i have similar problem with my NEM-L21 device... I tried to flash the Elite ROM v5.1 but i didnt succeed so i decided to restore my old rom from backup with TWRP. When i restored it it just didnt load. It was stuck on honor logo for a long time. I tried the dload method many times but nothing worked so far. I even tried unbrick it with HUAWEI Multi-tool but it also didnt worked.
Now i cant acces anything, just fastboot. I cant even turn off the device. Please can you help me somehow?

Try unlocking the bootloader again even if it is unlocked. It will factory reset the device and it should boot fine. Have stuck on this many a time and this was the method i followed.

Bootloader re-locked

Hi everyone, some weeks ago I converted my A2 in 6X because I wanted to test MIUI. Yesterday, dealing with an update my phone get into a bootloop. Well, I used MiFlash to fix it but I selected "flash and lock" (yes, I know, I'm stupid).
The main thing is that I'm in a Chinese ROM with lock bootloader and when I try to unlock it I get error 86023.
I dont know what to do. I've thought about test point to flash Xiaomi.eu but I'm not sure bcause the bootloader is locked.
Someone with a posibble solution? Thanks
Welcome to the Club
Same thing happened to me.
You can now choose between China Developer or Stable.
I tried many progs and tutorials to unlock the bootloader but no way.
If you need GooglePlayStore, CalenderSync and ContactsSync:

I'm now on stable V10.3.6.0.PDCCNXM and all is working quite well.

It didn't happened to me for myself, but I just asked this question to get better knowledge about bootloader stuffs:
As I understood the current problem is this:
You need to unlock your bootloader again, there is just (as much as I know) 2 ways to approach, which both of them will not help you:
1. Unlocking as a A2 : but your device is not a A2 anymore, so the device will not be unlocked by this method.
2. Unlocking as a 6x : but this one won't be successful either since the dedicated unlocking program asks for a real 6X device with a registered IMEI number by factory, which in your case is NOT.
So, you will be left just with the options that need no Unlocked Bootloader, as mentioned above, like Chinese Stable versions. ( That in my opinion it does NOT sound awful. )
(BTW, every day comes with new procedures, maybe you can find a new method to unlocked the bootloader again, there was times that many expertise told, after stucking in ARB4 trap, you just need to find a suitable Trash for your device!, but now we all know that there is plenty new ways to deal with it).

Authorized Customer Services, or a friend who works there
It is very possible that they can restore your phone (and as well your bootloader) as what it was in factory.

Yes, exactly.
Hello my friends, i managed to unlock the bootloader of my converted A2/6X.
I tried several times to switch from stable china to developer china but from 9.8.15 to 9.9.3 no one worked.
After installing one of the developer roms, the phone only shows the boot screen for 2 seconds and turns off, with charger it boots endlessly or shows the green battery symbol after some minutes.
One thing that works, is using a rubber band to fix "Vol+" and connect phone via usb or charger, mostly after 5-10 minutes it will enter the "Miui-Recovery", then you can start "Mi-Assistent" in the "Miui-Recovery" and flash back the stable china, so luckily no need of EDL.
After flashing the last 9.9.3 rom and the phone was all screwed up, again. I tried the original "miflash_unlock-en-2.2.624.14" and it worked.
I have done this "thousand" times before with all available unlock tools I found but never succeeded before.
Download: miflash_unlock-en-2.2.624.14
https://xiaomifirmware.com/downloads/download-mi-unlock-2-2-624-14-windows/
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=889764386195916630
Now I tried to boot into recovery “fastboot boot twrp_wayne.img” but it didn't work, because the phone reboots or turns off after 2 seconds.
So I flashed the china stable via fastboot (worked), let it boot up, no setup, reboot to enter fastboot and flashed successful the orangefox-twrp.
Hope somebody can also unlock his bootloader or maybe it was just luck.

Amazing Dude. [emoji108][emoji108][emoji108][emoji108][emoji108] Congratulations.

How To Guide x70 Pro Plus Origin OS to FunTouch 36.9.3

Foreword: My time with Vivo has come to an end. After flashing a wrong devicecfg and accidentally rebooting my device it is now in a hard bricked state.
Vivo has locked down EDL, there is absolutely no way to flash or backup anything in EDL mode without the official Tools (namely Vivo AFTool 5.9.80).
Vivo India refers me to Vivo Germany - Vivo Germany has outsourced its customer support to bulgaria.
The people on the other side of the line know absolutely nothing about the technical aspect and refuse to put me through to anyone with any kind of knowhow.
Due to their anti consumer and anti repair attitudes I will not buy another Vivo phone.
With this out of the way: You might end up like me with a hard brick. Or without signal.
Even if this will not save you from a hard brick I can not stress this enough: Make a BACKUP! And backup your data. This will wipe your phone.
This process is IRREVERSIBLE unless you have a split ROM of the chinese Firmware or your own Backup.
THIS or BL UNLOCK will break your portrait mode. No more bokeh, neither in Origin OS nor FunTouch.
Do NOT flash fsg, modemst1 and modemst2. They are commented out in the COMMANDS file.
You do this at your own risk. As said before this might brick your device.
Unlock your Bootloader
Backup your Partitions
Download my Flash Folder and Extract it: Android File Host
Open 01COMMANDS.txt and read the instructions
Open a command shell in the same folder that you can find 01COMMANDS.txt in
Run the given commands in blocks or one after the other
If you do not have signal after flashing you might have to erase modemst1 and modemst2 partitions, so that they get replaced by the backup in fsg.
A magisk flashed boot.img and adb-modded recovery is included so you can flash it after booting up FunTouch once and backup all your partitions again.
Thanks again to @Pervokur for helping me along the way. There is definitely an easier method that involves less risky flash operations.
My phone died on the cross while I was trying to figure it out, so maybe someone else will pick up the torch.
I will not be able to offer any kind of support.
RIP @Killuminati91's Vivo, who died for the cause.
Sorry to hear that, man, you were so close to what looked like an easy switch between ROMs.
I know you said you were no developer but you are still a leap ahead of most of us here. Long do we miss the good old days where ROMs, kernels and pure innovation shortly followed our much-wanted phone when flashing a few ROMs a week was normal.
Thanks for all your help, perhaps one day there will be a way to recover your phone.
Many thanks, may I relock the bootloader when i finished change to Global rom?

how did you relock the bootloader, does the portrait mode work again?
does any one change the origin os /ocean into funtouch?
version? how to relock after it can switch to funtouch?
by the way, I saw the post on the taiwan vivo phone of fb
the second hand goods, it wrote he change the origin os into funtouch
and he sell this service , it charge 2000 nt dollars in taiwan.
maybe someone can save your phone.

I think the only problem that keeps the phone from being recognized as official FunTouch is dm-verity.
In theory both phone versions have the same exact hardware.
i'm fail in step 2 :RECREATE DYNAMIC PARTITIONS) & step 3 :FLASH DYNAMIC PARTITIONS)
I thought you fixed your issue with I think wifi or your signal, and you were good to go, and you successfully swapped over to Funtouch?? Was there other issues that you encountered that you continued to mess with it and caused your phone to get bricked? Good job getting this far and sharing the info!

I wanted to find a smoother solution for the dm-verity message and the constant "update to fix broken system prompts" by flash-disabling it. Noticed that portrait mode was not working anymore, so I wanted to return to OriginOS, check if it works and return to FunTouch with a more streamlined, simpler solution to write a guide. Signal was fixed but it sometimes would not connect for the first 10 minutes after a reboot.
When switching back to FunTouch I flashed boot, recovery, vendor_boot, and the vbmeta's while trying to figure out what exactly is needed to get the device recognized as IN. Was not working so I tried devcfg and accidentally rebooted before flashing more partitions. -> Bootloop without recovery / fastboot.

did you try using the OriginOS's camera app on FuntouchOS ? I find it when u use the front facing camera, the portrait mode still work. In the other hand, the back camera is not working in portrait mode. I follow your guide and using the FuntouchOS about 2 days. Everything works fine, except the portrait mode and the AOD. Cant use it anymore.
Oh I see, now that is weird that the portrait mode is not working. So even if you switch not all functionality has returned. Thanks for the explanation. Hopefully someone can continue your work, and find a solution for a seamless transition.
Yeah, returning to Origin did not fix portraits either, so flashing the cam apk itself wouldnt work. I am not sure what exactly is causing it, I just noticed it after flashing FunTouch. Maybe it is disabled by unlocking the BL or a hidden eFuse? Dont know if its possible to get it back.
Im in contact with someone in china, vivo service center remote flashing is my last straw to get this back to work but I doubt that they will do that. A cracked AFTool 5.9.80. would solve all of ours problems but we will not see that for at least half a year i think. I've been gone from android for a few years - all the hurdles surprised me, manufacturers locking down their bootloaders and EVEN edl is kinda disappointing.

Redmi Note 9 - How do I restore my IMEI? I don't have a backup of my nvram/nvdata but I have the numbers.

How do I write IMEI along with baseband version back to my phone? I really don't want to risk bricking it again, that's enough stress for me in the past two days
I heard that I can only flash IMEI 2 back to it, and if I want flashing IMEI 1 as well I'd need to install a custom rom on the phone. So if that's a solution I'd love if someone could help me with it. MIUI 13 is slow and laggy af (which is the reason I bricked the phone in the first place, to install a better ROM).
But here's something, when I flash the phone's firmware through fastboot, issues start to rise (as per my experience with it so far), but through SP Flash Tool, it's alright. So I'd love to know if installing custom ROMs using the tool would be alright, if not then if recovery is required or if fastboot is fit for the job. If that's an issue I'd love if someone could give me advice when it comes to it.
Old post 1: (not my current situation)
"Long story short, I bricked the phone and after months, I've finally been able to repair it (downgraded from MIUI 13 to MIUI 11), but I lost my IMEI. I have the phone's two IMEI numbers, but I could not find any tool to help me write it to the phone. Either that, or I don't know whether the phone should be turned on or off, or if there's any special mode that's required for that matter.
Help would really be appreciated."
Old post 2:
"It happened after manually installing engineering ROM on it, now I can only doubt it's BROM mode that's working and nothing else, but I'm not sure. SP Flash Tool doesn't want to work with the phone since I want to flash the stock rom back. I really need help please."

The reason why my phone broke in the first place was due to flashing a misc.bin file after following a YouTube tutorial. It was part of a process to download twrp on the phone unofficially. Since then I started looking for ways to fix it until I finally found a post that had to do with fixing nvdata corruption (which was the error I had prior to fixing the phone) which helped.
So yeah, I don't think I can trust flashing ROMs on my phone as much as before, but I'll still try the engineering ROM thing.

Yep, it doesn't show up as it's name or "Android", it shows up as MediaTek USB Port (COM3), that's why I doubted it to be in BROM mode.

I always recommend a NV Backup before messing up with your own device, that's all I know.
Download the file attached here but remember you can fix only second IMEI using this method. Please don't try to fix both IMEI or NV Data will be corrupted again.

The guy in the video is using MIUI 12, I have MIUI 13. I don't know if that's an issue but someone in the comments said something about MIUI or so. I'm not a professional but many times when I see tutorials they're very specific with the MIUI version.
Also, I'm not sure how to back up nv data, do I use mtkclient or is it somewhere in the attachment you sent me?
And one more thing, my phone's baseband version is unknown, could that affect the process?

The phone keeps rebooting when connecting it to Maui META. Like it shows META MODE at the bottom of the screen but then it turns off. Now it's bootlooping. I guess I'll have to flash MIUI on it again. At least I still have access to fastboot and recovery.
Update: NV Data corrupted after flashing MIUI, but I got a solution that hopefully works.
Update 2: After flashing MIUI 11 (along with some other nvdata and nvram files, i think they're just empty), it works now and the error is gone. But as I said IMEI issue's still there. Maybe I would need engineering ROM for this one? Although it bricked my phone before.
Also, the phone started bootlooping before attempting the Maui META thing, so maybe it's either the manual formatting of partitions or the files I flashed on it.
