Hello everyone,
After I unlocked my device, I've tried most of the roms to find a daily driver. I installed and set them up then backed up all partitions with twrp for each rom so I won't have to reinstall apps, etc. Then I decided to go with xiaomi global rom, restored it using twrp.
But after that it couldn't connect to mobile network (No problem with wifi). I tried to fastboot flash stock China rom but it didn't fix that. A friend of mine suggested to restore qcn file using qpst but the problem is I didn't have any backup with that (I though twrp backup was for entire device, didn't know I needed that).
What do you guys think? Will restoring qcn with QPST will fix my device? If so can anyone share a backup for Mi 8 Pro China version. Or do you think is there another way to fix it?
Hoping you gurus will help me out, thanks in advance.
my redmi 8 running global rom then i have UNLOCK installed TWRP to load EU rom .. Today i mmlash on global rom everything is fine .. But my Redmi 8 has lost my IMEI, i can't use SIM application ... Someone help me fix it .. I need help ... Thanks
If you have not backed up the IMEI partition, I think it's the EFS, there's not really much you can do other than send your phone back to Xiaomi and hope they'll restore it for you.
Always do a full backup of all partitions right after flashing TWRP.
Is there anyone have video tutorial to repair imei without using any paid apps? I can't understand the procedures by only reading the steps. Pleasee help me fix my phone
Looks like you're yet another one of those victims of that outdated twrp tutorial that bricked our phones. That thing should be deleted. Anyways read these whole threads ujust in case

Download ModemMeta Tool (all versions) - Mediatek IMEI Tool
Download the latest version of ModemMeta Tool to flash IMEI, backup IMEI and repair IMEI, NVRAM on MediaTek smartphone and tablets.

^use that for imei repair, you have to have the sim card in slot 2 and not put anything for IMEI 1. My cell signal sucks now for some reason I still havent figured out. but calls work now and dont cut off after 30 seconds at lest.
Oh and yes you need to be in the engineering rom to use that modemmeta tool.
I struggled for a while because I thought that merlin was the same as lancelot so I was using the wrong roms. I forgot if I had to flash back to the original rom.
These are some of the files in my "bricked" folder

After going back to the stock lancelot rom, i just updated the rom as normal to 12.05 then installed magisk as usual, later on installed that recovery and it works fine. It even has options in it so the bootloader doesnt get overwritten by miui

How to Backup and Restore IMEI/NVRAM data on Mediatek Chipset Android Device
Alright, so you have an Android Device which has a Mediatek Chip inside. It looks like that you are not someone who uses their Android Device for basic
www.getdroidtips.com
The spflashtool option in the video was the simplest for my situation though.
I never went back to restore the imei from nvram. I just went back to the stock lancelot rom and the info was saved. When I went to the rom the imei was there in the about section phone status.
If I used miflash i chose the clean all option. Remember not to lock it.
And if I used sp flash tool i used firmware update or download mode. NOT Format ALL. I think that is why my imei may have been deleted at first.
If you manage to put that recovery there is an option there to restore from NVRAM

So I can use miflash to go back to stock rom? What is your recommended version of miui sir?

Yes you should be able to use miflash in fastboot if your bootloader is already unlocked. I don't know what version of miui is best. I just went back to the stock rom and then updated. I am going to play around with custom roms now. I don't like all the xiaomi stuff. You can uninstall a lot of it with xiaomiadbfastboottools

You might have to turn it off while it is connected to that program. Or maybe fastboot. I forgot exactly but I recall something about turning it off. Remember it has to be on the engineering rom for your device or else it will not work.
