Everything you need to do is relock bootloader and flash the stock miui again and you got warranty back.

i have the same problem
my pc isn't detecting my phone at all and i can't enter fastboot mode or shut it down

As linked by @VD171 you have to delete the misc partition created by the incompatible TWRP, so do:
1 - turn on your phone, your screen probably is black, but connect to your pc and do:
adb devices
2 - it should detect the device, then do:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot erase misc
after that you should be able to restart to fastboot mode again

Redmi Note 9 merlin 4/128 NFC - Hard Brick

A couple days ago my Redmi Note 9 (merlin) 4/128 GB NFC automically installed the Update from V12.0.3.0.QJOEUXM to V12.0.4.0.QJOEUXM over night. I had rooted and installed a TWRP on it. As I had noticed that it was not rooted anymore I tried to reflash the TWRP over Fastboot because it was overwritten by MIUI. When I tried to boot the twrp.img the phone did so and the screen was on but black. After 4 or 5 tries it hanged up in a bootloop and I cannot access Fastboot Mode or something else anylonger.
Is there something left I can try?

It goes on and Windows makes the sound for a new device connected, and then it goes off again, and Windows makes the sound for disconnecting a device. This repeats for around 4 or 5 minutes then it goes finally off.
That's bad.
Hold the power +/- longer then 15 seconds try both.
Second
Charge for about 10 minutes and try the same again.
Last drain it when down keep pushing the power button to flat it.hook it up on desktop and install miflashtools.or try power +/- again

When I try to charge it it goes in the bootloop again until I disconnect it and the battery runs out.

The miflashtool does nothing when I click on Flash with the images and scripts loaded. Power +/- does the same as before.
Sorry I thought flash tools had a option in top for selecting boot options.There is a mi tool around where can select the boot options.i need to search on my desktop what it was.we need to trigger it in fastboot/recovery mode some how.most likely it was xiaomi tools V2 but I really need to check it.tools V2 got a bricked option do.but since it restarts everytime it's pretty long shot

Thanks in advance
What should I do in this tool? The tool doesn't recognize my phone. It brings nothing since I cannot access Fastboot.
Well basically there is only one real option left . contact mi service center because mi don't support or they closed there download,edl support on there phones to prevent rom swapping .there is a edl cable with mtk support around but that's a long shot.because I never had a messed up phone like this.at least not one with mtk.without recognise you're desktop I don't see a fix in this to get in fastboot or flash it.
Download platform tools drop it on c:/ so c:/platform tools .install abd drivers package if you didn't have it.go in platform tools the top line and tick Cmd hit enter.try command : fastboot devices .try a few times if a number pops up you can try .fastboot reboot fastboot

Is your phone still bricked, If yes, I can provide link for the factory firmware recently released for Merlin, You could give flashing that in SP Flash a try, does not need auth account.
If your device keep booting in recovery (or blackscreen), you need to erase misc partition.
Here, is the guide for erasing MISC partition: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...omi-redmi-note-9-xiaomi-redmi-10x-4g.4209299/
Good luck

If you got bootloop after flashed magisk, you need to flash stock rom boot.img.
If you got bootloop after flashed TWRP, you need to flash stock rom recovery.img.
If you got bootloop (or black screen) after flashed misc partition, you need to erase misc partition.
If it keeps restarting, you've made any wrong modification. You need to follow your steps back and try to unmake your modification.
If you can't enter in fastboot mode or recovery mode, you need to flash stock rom using sp flash tool.
If you are using V12.0.4.0 or lower, you can flash without EDL and authentication.
If you are using V12.0.5.0 or higher, you need EDL and authentication for flashing.
If you are using V12.0.5.0 or higher, TWRP will not work.
If you want to use sp flash tool, you need to flash the stock rom preloader using V12.0.4.0 (or lower). (It will works perfectly with lower preloader binary version).
With an older preloader version, your phone will can receive DA files and accept flashing with NO auth.
Everything you need to do is plug your phone in usb (without press any key, if you press any key it will enter in EDL mode and requests authenticaion).
Here, are PRELOADER binaries for flashing: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...omi-redmi-10x-4g-xiaomi-redmi-note-9.4221081/
Here, are DA files for flashing using flash tool: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...omi-redmi-10x-4g-xiaomi-redmi-note-9.4209767/
Here, you can find boot images for original stock and magisk patched: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...omi-redmi-note-9-xiaomi-redmi-10x-4g.4204671/
If you want to keep TWRP working on V12.0.5.0 or higher, you need to flash the stock rom lk partition using V12.0.4.0 (or lower). (It will works perfectly with lower lk partition version).
Here, are LK images for flashing: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...omi-redmi-note-9-xiaomi-redmi-10x-4g.4218925/
If you want to disable TWRP, you need to flash stock rom recovery partition.
Here, are RECOVERY images for flashing: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...omi-redmi-note-9-xiaomi-redmi-10x-4g.4204671/
If your device keep booting in recovery (or blackscreen), you need to erase misc partition.

I tried actually before after failed attempt of flashing twrp. First, I got my redmi note 9 bricked after following one of the guides posted here (rooting), I will call this state 1 brick. In state 1 brick you can still access fastboot mode normally. Then i tried to flash twrp hoping to just flash a rom to fix it leading to state 2 brick. In state 2 brick, it seems like it is stucked on recovery (btw the recovery is only displaying black screen) and is classifying fastboot as the bootloader, meaning you can boot into fastboot using adb command reboot bootloader. Then I followed one of the guides here again and then it managed to lead my device to state 3 brick. In state 3 brick it continuously boot looping only displaying the boot image for a second then repeat. Normally it can be fixed by flashing a stock rom using sp flash tool but not with xiaomi devices. Now I am stucked with a hard bricked note 9 with no way of fixing.

What was your MIUI Version before installing twrp. You will lose your data for the fix. But its the matter of phone or no phone.

You device was global varient or chinese varient ?
You can checkout tutorials on using SP Flash tool to flash stock firmware, or I can explain when I get home. Also use spflash tool with MTK auth bypass or you won't be able to flash.
Had a pretty bad month as I completely killed my phones software. Heck I even deleted the preloader which is the core responsible thing for a mediatek chip based phone to boot. BUT SP flash tool saved the day.
You hard-bricked your phone, there's a guide I've made on how to recover it here.

Question Can't boot into anything, only shows charging screen then turns itself off after. PLEASE HELP ME! How do I fix this???

Yesterday I unlocked my phone with the official Xiaomi unlock tool, Then it wiped everything, after setting my phone up, I flashed TWRP (not for my device but for redmi k20, I thought 9T and K20 is the same) and now I'm stuck on fastboot, I tried power button + volume buttons but still stuck on fastboot, I tried adb but still stuck, I tried Reiboot for Android but still stuck. So I used XiaoMiTool V2 (unofficial) and selected 'my device is bricked' then it asked me to select what device am I using, I selected k20 bc I thought it's the same with redmi power, after downloading a rom for an hour, it tries to install but fails because it detects that it's not k20, so I closed it and rebooted my device, now my device only shows the charging battery icon, can't boot into fastboot, can't boot into anything, PC can't detect my phone including adb. Please help me (for free), I really need your help. Thanks!
Your mistake was booting a wrong twrp and then a wrong fastboot rom. You could have saved your device when it was in fastboot mod by flashing an official fastboot rom for your device. But now your device seems hopeless. I think you have no option but to send it to a service center.
In this Case, buy only from Trusted Places! Or Learn how to Flash properly.
If the bootloader is unlocked...
Flash vbmeta.img
Then flash the suitable recovery for 9 power... It might boot to recovery then

General HELP NEEDED

I tried booting in a dsu image on my redmi note 11 {spesn} and it insta reboots to fastboot. What can i dooooo???
Lucky me after a forced reboot it was fixed but idk why it happens
you need to have an unlocked bootloader
Oh
Be careful! If you brick the system using that dsu, and not unlock the bootloader, then your phone is toast. (Hard brick)
