Mi5 Locked, IMEI Lost, Can't UBL - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

So my mi5 had a sudden bootloop, until next morning, phone booted up again but with a very poor performance, so i decided to do a factory reset.
After factory reset, my device can't detect any SIm card, turn out, baseband information was unknown and both IMEI unknown too.
I've tried to restore it via QPST (Diag mode ON, USB debug ON) with others mi5 qcn, but it failed, and giving me "memory restore failed"
Then, i decide to unlock my phone, but the problem is, i can't unlock it because i had to bound mi account with the phone first, and to do that, it need to insert SIM card. Voila, that means i cant unlock bootloader either as my phone cannot detect any SIM card.
Any suggestion to solve it?

Mi 5 stuck in airplane mode

Hi, just got permission to unlock and flashed China Dev ROM. Everything was well when the phone cant verify my account in the setup so after reading the Mi Forum, advised to turn off wifi/celular data to skip the steps but still wont work. So I turn on the airplane mode and after a few tries, I got through. After everything done it asked again to verify the device as it is associated with an account (mine) and to enter password.
And the nightmare starts, it can't verify my password because no network...because I did not turn off the airplane mode. I can't access the phone to turn it off or do anything, its locked coz it cant activate the device. Its not bricked or anything just locked.
So my issue now is turning off the airplane mode to unlock the hpone. Any ideas how to turn off the airplane mode via fastboot etc. Or to brick it so I can unbrick it. The only thing I can do is boot to fastboot and the verification screen.
What I have tried (and failed):
-Flash new rom via Mi Flash (can't because device is locked)
-Unbricking via fastboot edl (same as above)
-Hard reset (nope as no recovery as bootloader is locked and can't install custom recovery via)
-ADB (nope as debugging not turn on)
-Unlocking the bootloader since I got the permission (stuck at 50% and the general consensus is u have to login into the phone which I can't)
-I did turn off the phone by detaching the battery cable and removing the whole mobo but nope, nothing's change.
Help please or I might call it a day and buy a Samsung
Thanks!

Bricked P9 FRP locked, Phone / Bootloader Locked HELP!

I've been trying to contact huawei for a couple of days, trying to get my p9 back to alive.
well let me explain how this is happened :
couple of days ago, I was on nougat firmware and few games that I play isn't optimized for nougat yet so I planned to downgrade to marshmallow via rollback and update.app package. First I install the rollback package via internal storage and its success, second, I rebooted phone and insert my sdcard to install update.app from official huawei and its say success then it rebooted itself after 100% flash. Then I realized that my phone isn't came to boot, I try to reboot again but no success getting to boot screen. I try to reflash the update.app thru dload mode but dload mode isn't boot anymore. trying to boot into erecovery but it never show up. Think I'm broke my recovery at this state. Then I try to boot into fastboot mode and its success. Unfortunately, It says frp locked and phone locked ( yes I formatted my phone on nougat earlier thinking that the cause of lag is maybe I dirty update it without clearing data etc like flashing firmware and I forgot to turn frp off )
This phone is mine and not stolen. I can provide you my google data and prove it with ss on my google account manager that this phone is already been bind to that account.
I wanna know how to turn frp lock off?
Trying to fastboot frp-erase but didn't solve my problem
Trying to fastboot frp-unlock but it ask me for a password (trying to insert bootloader unlock code but it says password matching failed)
Trying to flash anything but it says remote: command not allowed since my bootloader locked again due upgrading to nougat.
And, I dont want to pay for dc-phoenix since I want to learn myself how to do it from you guys
Thank you!
You won't learn anything, because your phone is ****ed up In real mess and you must pray even to recover it with DC phoenix ... and yes, you must pay them

xaiomi mI5 loop,stuck.

hi friends, i need so much your help!.
I have xaiomi mi5, the operating system of the cellphone has been updated, and then the device has entered the loop.
He can not get up at all.
I've tried to do so far:
FAST BOOT - but even the computer can not read the device despite all the permissions I have approved for the computer.
MIPCSUIT - does not work well because the computer does not recognize the device.
Your help must be smart and good people!
I am also stuck with the same problem.
At least I can get fastboot.
I think if you OK to loose data then just go to recovery mode with Volume up + power button pressed together. And wipe all. This may solve the problem. But I don't want to loose data I am skipping this option.
If any one knows other way to unbrick without full wipe then please let us know.
Thanks
have you unlocked bootloader?
you can try run by fastboot twrp recovery mode.
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
after few seconds phone boot to recovery, you can encrypt the phone and copy data.
twrp is here
My bootloader is locked I think.
I tried that command. Didn't boot to twrp.
Any other way.
Anyway Thanks for suggesting.
Are you on latest MIUI global stable? I think Xiaomi's guys ****ed it up this time around and got bootloop for everybody on latest update.
Take a read here and good luck: http://en.miui.com/thread-2776961-1-1.html

Hello,
I had similar issue.
To be able to start phone/miui you should remove sim card,
in my case it was connected to connecting to cell network that caused reboot.
Than it will be possible to update phone using WiFi.
For me issue was solved with V9.5.2.0.NAAMIFA update.

Lifesaver here!
This worked perfectly for me! Go figure?
Cheers
You can try
I tried version gemini global images v10.2.2.0. OAAMIXM 2019115 GLOBAL but failed then tried v8.11.22.20181122.000 8.0 GLOBAL but failed then 2 month later i tried with good battery and good on off and main important is version GEMINI GLOBAL IMAGES 6.11.10 _20161110 and version GEMINI GLOBAL IMAGES V7.2.4.0.MAAMIDC 20160129. AND GUESS WHAT SUCCESS. NEVER TRY WITHOUT BATTERY AND WITHOUT EDL POINT. EDL POINT FOR UNLOCKING BOOTLOCK AND DOWNLOAD SOFTWARE FLASH FILES WITH GOOD INTERNET WITHOUT INTERUPPT SO FLASH SUCCESS. MY 2 MOTHERBOARD OF MI5 SAVED WITHOUT HARDWARE. HOW TO KNOW SOFTWARE OR HARDWARE....1ST CHECK CHARGING HAPPENING OR NOT IN SWITCH OFF AND CAN IT GO TO FASTBOOT MODE OR RECOVERY MODE. IF ALL THIS GOOD GO FOR FLASH IN SAME PROCESS. OTHERWISE HARDWARE AS STATED THAT RESISTOR ALSO PLAY A VITAL ROLE IN BOOTING OR STUCK AT MI LOGO. MOISTURE IN PHONE UNDER IC REQUIRE HEAT WITH PASTE AT HARDWARE LEVEL.

no custom recovery no bootloader unlock, no factory reset, need ideas

Hi,
so i got a situation here that xiaomi mi a2 (6x) out of nowhere rebooted to factory recovery with message "cant load android system. your data may be corrupt. If you continue to get this message you may need to perform factory reset deleting all data stored on this device"
Now after turning it off and on, it shows black screen "failed to boot" with option to power off or restart.
When restarting it goes to factory recovery again with that message and option to factory reset or try again (restart)
Now i cant perform factory reset before backing up the data, but i cant find the way to backup.
There is no custom recovery to download files from phone. When tried to flash custom recovery found out i cant because bootloader locked. And when found the way (dont know i it works) to unlock it without loosing data - cant do even that because developer options must be enabled to allow unlocking and debugging, so i get message in adb console FAILED (remote: Flashing Unlock is not allowed.
Is there any other way to keep the data before doing factory reset ?
Maybe try to flash with miflash keeping the data

unfortunately miflash cant do anything with locked bootloader as well. Just when starts to flash, gets error with bluetoth_a.
After research i noticed that miflash does nothing special at all just automated flash commands. In rom directory you can find flashing .bat files and run them in adb console.
When did that got all the data log, that bluetooth a is the first file that is tried to flash and stuck on locked bootloader.
Hello. Did you manage to solve your problem?
I have the same saituation.
Hi, unfortunately the only way i found is EDL mode.
https://youtu.be/i3OU4DOd7aY
When you keep those pins shorted, plug usb to your pc, and then , simply said, pc sees it as another device that can be flashed with everything locked.
So i flashed with miflash with keeping files option, but all that was saved is locking pattern. All media files lost.
Anyway, now i rooted and installed custom recovery to avoid any incident like this.

I try to again unlock the bootloader but mi account cannot activate my sim. tried with new sim and account but no reasult.

I tried all searched ways but no reasult. i tried downgrade with rename rom method, try xiamitoolv2 no reasult.
Now pleas can anyone help me to unlock the bootloader with any idea. It will be really appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Can you still boot into fastboot mode?
If so,
1. For newer devices (2015 and higher):
fastboot flashing unlock
2. For older devices (2014 and lower)
fastboot oem unlock
I had the same problem a month ago and finally solved, you should make some changes to a file of the official ROM released by Xiaomi and re-flash it by activating the Qualcomm 9008 mode, in which you can ignore the bootloader lock
