Did you format your device?
Do you have baseband?
If you lost your imei, you can't recover it forever.
Only Xiaomi Centre can recover it.
I'm sorry.
For rooting, you need to unlock bootloader.
Try using a SIM from an operator that does not requires imei.
That's your only chance.

Look. If you don't have any backup of IMEI, Only Xiaomi can fix it by replacing the whole motherboard, take the phone to them with bootloader locked and don't tell them you rooted or flashed anything ( if you did), they will cover the device in warranty.
If you don't care about IMEI and Sim detection, You can flash engineering rom, Unlock bootloader on it as it does not need sim card and flash roms.
I'd recommend the first option, take your phone to service centre if possible.
This device belongs to a client, he wasn't sure what happened to lose imei
but I think it was lost after update.
Baseband found and there isn't a backup

is it ok to flash it?
can I downgrade to 12.0.4?
any risks?

Updates can't clean imei.
Only Xiaomi centre can recover imei properly.

Yeah, after flashing engineering rom you can flash miui 12.0.4, but that won't recover IMEI either.
My friend is working on an IMEI modify tool, he will by trying it out on his Merlin today.
I'll let you know if it works, so you can recover the device's IMEI.

And to be honest, I tried repairing it to a technician but at this point, NOWHERE and NO ONE could repair this phone properly. They all offered similar treats such as:
-REBUILDING
-REFORMATTING
AND NAHH.. CANT FIX THIS
It's hard to find a committed technician to handle this sort of things like they make it so complicated.

Neither Xiaomi Centre can recover it.
They just change the motherboard and then send the older to the factory.

Keep atention, people.
We need recovery options and not modifications for hobby or for breaking the law.

hello everybody!
i bricked my Mi 8 like other thousands of users flashing global rom since chinese rom (i selected "clean all and lock" by accident).
I have been searching for a solution for weeks now but it seems that the only way is to get an authorized account to be able to bring back to life our devices.
It is redicolous that we have to pay to unlock our phones, anyway, i am searching for people with the same problem to buy multiple accounts for cheaper.
any answeres are much appreciated.
thank you in advance!
Forget that sh*t. Write this guy and ask him to help you. He has already helped more than 400 people I think and he's doing exactly the same than s-unlock bast*rds but for free, just to help. Honestly I think he deserves a donation if he helps you (like I donated when he helped me) but he will never tell you nothing about it. I truly admire him. @NikSalsa

You really have to. EDL cable doesn't work. By the way it looks like the guy I quoted in my previous post has set a web to charge for the service, sad. You can write him anyway and see what he answers.

yeah i contacted him and he sent me the link of the website, he basically provides the same service like s-unlock.com, just for cheaper, about 16 euros. I will go for that, it is the only solution.

The difference is that EDL authorization doesn't require to open the phone.
Guys, hello!! I bricked my Mi8 too....
In my cellphone says "This MIUI version can't be installed on this device"
And when i will flash a new rom in Miflash says "Erase boot error"

Of course, yes, i'm brazilian.
You need to open your cellphone and do the TESTPOINT for enable the COM PORT on your computer, the EDL mode. The next move is to flash with Miflash program and will ask you the ID verification, this ID only developers guys have.
But, they charge a value to do this service, which is to only authenticate on your computer, I have the contact of it if you want I can pass you, is a Brazilian.
I paid R$90,00BRL
Po thank you very much, I'll see him then, I managed to open and did EDL mode but my account does not have access, I'll talk to him

Mostly thanks to @NikSalsa MOD EDIT:link removed for the attention and support :Boa:. I believe one of the goals of this forum is to promote help, solutions and problem solving. And in this way fraternal actions arise. Something rare today. About services charged I think fair, as well as donation that I will make for sure. I hope that the willingness to help and recognize the help will not be extinguished.

Hey, I had the problem that my Mi8 China version with Global ROM was brick. After spending hours trying to test some of the possibilities and guesses of others. Unfortunately they all ended without success.
So i have addressed MOD EDIT: link removed under Telegeram. If necessary it is also reachable via Whatsapp under MOD EDIT: number removed.
He has explained with the steps what I need everything and after everything was downloaded it takes barely 5 minutes and my Mi8 started again.
Of course you can try all the instructions online or contact @remote_repair98 very fast.
Hey i have the same problem but not same device mine is redmi note 7 lavender but i lost my account password and i can't recover it so i opened the phone and tried flashing it vie EDL test points but iis say the edl auth error can you gelp me pls
On Mi 8 if your fastboot is still available, try issuing 'fastboot oem edl'.
This reboots my unlocked Mi8 into EDL mode without opening the back.
Tool https://github.com/bkerler/edl (thanks to Bjorn) has edl programmer included that doesnt require auth for this phone (poco loader in matched automatically) and allows for programming cmds.
You can either use this QDL or QFIL to download required firmware. Only stock firmware will boot if bootloader in locked.
Perhaps this will help someone.

My mi 8 crashed and broke the screen, I changed the display and the battery, after that I was without signal and without wi-fi.
I tried several procedures on the internet until I lost my imei and my mac adress.
I read that I would have to restore qcn file, however I did not back up.
I'm from Brazil and here is no assistance from Xiaomi
I have the imeis that comes in the product box. I just wanted to write you again, but I can not
Would you be very kind and send me this backup qcn?
Thank you very much.

Read the above links again. Unfortunately they're all in English, so you may need to use Google translate to understand them fully.
You will need to open the phone to set it in EDL mode.
You will need to contact someone in Russia that has an authorised service account and pay him about €20
He will then need you to allow him to control your PC by remote desktop to flash your phone and unlock the bootloader.
All the information is in the above posts, including the contact details for the Russian guy. There have been a few people that have done this, so this works and the Russian guy is reliable.
There is no physical reason that this cannot be done by the Italian service centre. Maybe you could try to ask them again if they can take pity on you and help.

You're not supposed to relock the bootloader with anything other than the original software, even different regions of MIUI for example. Otherwise the device bricks itself.

dont care about if you have lost imei. phone could work anyway. and you have lost guaranted when u have unlocked. so if you sim work, dont waste your time for restoring original imei. one of my old phone have both imei erased to 00000000000 and works perfectly

Only a few carriers do accept registering devices with imei=0. so, it is a valid effort to recover it.
I updated to 13.0.2 with bootloader unlocked and magisk installed working fine. I like this last update.

In Brazil, it kinda is. Only one carrier allow a imei 0 device to connect, and voice calls doesn`t work either.
And mate, It is easy. Meta mode, modem meta or maui meta, write it, disconnect, and you`re done. But making that **** boot after using maui meta is the hard part.
(btw, CDS info mode doesn`t work on camellia variant)

And mate, It is easy. Meta mode, modem meta or maui meta, write it, disconnect, and you`re done. But making that **** boot after using maui meta is the hard part.
(btw, CDS info mode doesn`t work on camellia variant)

i'm talking about camellian. if you have downloaded camellian firmware it's normal you have problems with camellia variant

No, the last bit I`m talking about camellia firmware, mate. CDS Info doesn't even appear on MTK EM there.
I just installed camellian engineering firmware due to A - Not finding camellia Eng Firmware anywhere, B - to test a couple of things. I tried to mod MIUI 13.0.4.0 SKSCNXM, and it's been on maintenance SINCE the failure to it. Which I messed up the EFS partition and been trying to fix. Which, by the way, ended on my situation above. Imei 0, can do it through meta mode, but it ends in a bootloop whatever the firmware I load up after.
Might need to borrow someone else's NVRAM, flash it, change the IMEI to mine, and see if it works.
Right now, to actually keep it "usable", it's on 12.5.5.0 RKSCNXM.
PS: The only differences between Camellian and Camellia are: The former got three cams, and NFC.
Oddly, Camellia's MTK Engineering Mode got a NFC tab, despite not oficially supporting it. Maybe SW disabled?

how did u do, it's very difficult i have updated from miui 12 to miui 13, changed EEA to global, rooted, installed some gsi for testing... Without problems. your brick is incredible. you made the impossible possible

dont care about if you have lost imei. phone could work anyway. and you have lost guaranted when u have unlocked. so if you sim work, dont waste your time for restoring original imei. one of my old phone have both imei erased to 00000000000 and works perfectly

Did you try on incoming or outcoming calls?
Voice calls will never work without IMEI.

It's... Not bricked? Mate, not sure if you understand me, but the problem arised from my attempt to dev a custom rom based on miui china. And I'm literally using it to talk here.
Tried to make a lightweight version of miui for Camellia and ended messing up a few stuff, so I had to nuke the device.
Root, swapping camellia( n ) software back and forth, childs' play. But I messed up the code when messing with the internals of software. Get it now?

thank you so much for this. a lot of sites are scamming me to pay for this rom
So the recovery partition got corrupt and it would reboot my device when i tried booting into it, i used a app to forcefully boot into the recovery using root. My device bootlooped and would not boot into fastboot or turn off
I used this tool link to disable auth, then i flashed with sp flash tool. I was using firmware upgrade not format all
this video told me to uncheck preloader,cust,exaid during flash or i might loose my imei, i havent and i did loose my imei. My mom now uses the phone, she has two phones, this one she uses for paying with nfc and she uses her old one for everything else.
Im not tech savvy so i do not know if this is a important detail , it likely is not : when she puts her simcard into the phone it shows her contacts in the contacts app but she cant connect to mobile data, make and recieve calls/messages.
The bootloader is locked I do not have the box or a IMEI backup. Is there something i could do to maybe repair it? I could maybe use my imei from my other phone which is redmi note 9? its not important and doesnt really matter but would be great if i got it fixed

@Guard of the snow Thread has been closed.
Edit or change of IMEI is illegal in quite a few of countries. For this reason, XDA doesn't allow and accept discussions about or support for such an edit or change.
