        Thanks for the response.
        I'll download that stock rom and then i'll install it but, my question is, i flashed through fastboot, during Manuel install, as specified in config file (all ones) via fastboot not recovery, but i never booted into Ubuntu Touch.
        BTW, do i flash that zip file via TWRP? Sorry I'm a noob at mobile linux.
        What does this do? I never understood.

          No you don't need TWRP at all. Flash the stock ROM through fastboot using the flash_all.bat (Windows) or flash-all.sh (Linux) and be patient it takes some time, so don't move the device or you could cause a communications issue. Once Android id installed the device will reboot, so set up Android again - DO NOT relock the bootloader. Enable USB debugging and use the UT installer. Tick all the boxes and leave the device whilst it is installing.

          I have too many devices...

            When a port is made from a device for the first time, flashing the device is more complicated and time-consuming, which is why we often use the useful TWRP tool.
            When the device is later added to the UT Installer, it takes over the necessary tasks that were previously performed by the TWRP tool.

                can the output help you in any way? It seems fishy, many "Invalid's"
                It reboots to MIUI recovery, I used fastboot version
                Any help would surely be appreciated since I need to fix it asap.
                @Mario.CH @MrT10001 Help please

                  But it is in a bootloop with it booting back to MiUI Recovery (NV DATA IS CORRUPTED).
                  For some reason, engineering rom works flawlessly (no imei).

                    @0xinit69 You downloaded the correct fastboot ROM from here?

                    Xiaomi Redmi Note 7.... And more...

                      @MrT10001 I Downloaded this Since My Device Is India (NOT NFC) and I even tried the Global 12.5.4 ROM both didn't work.

                        @0xinit69 You are sure you have the Redmi note 9 and not the note 9 pro?

                            @0xinit69 The model no: M2003J15SI is not common. It takes it to the Redmi Note 9, but is not listed in device specs on GSM arena or phonemore. The "I" at the end may indicate an Indian variant.

                              @MrT10001 Yep, it is an indian variant.
                              What can be my chances of saving it now?
                              Any help?
                              i found this on the web

                                  @Vlad-Nirky I think we have stumbled on an anomaly here. I was leaning towards the 10x 4G, but apparently that is sold in China only, but gives an Indian variant......🤔

                                    @MrT10001 Afaik, both are same, since twrp of 10x 4g works on note 9, codenames are same (merlin).
                                    @Vlad-Nirky I will try the rom you gave tmrw mrng (its 12:00 AM here)
                                    Thanks for the response.
                                    I'm downloading this

                                      @0xinit69 I have two Chinese versions of Xiaomi phones that the unlock tool won't allow me to unlock the bootloader.. I am working on a way round... I hope @Vlad-Nirky solution works for you.

                                        @MrT10001 are they mediatek phones. If yes then this will help you (beware that this works on only old xiaomi mediatek devices)

                                          This doesn't work. it causes infinite bootloop part of the reason why is nv data is corrupted. Can rewriting nvdata with mauimeta fix it?. I'll try it.

                                            Rewriting doesn't work.
                                            It is now bricked except for engineering rom which is unusable except for testing purposes

                                              I'm sure MrT10001 won't give up so easily...
