        @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.

              @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

                          Sad to read that.
                          I'm sure MrT10001 won't give up so easily...

                            @Vlad-Nirky I also hope it. I hope he will find a solution to help me out.

                              @0xinit69 Can you still enter fastboot mode?

                                @MrT10001 I can enter fastboot and flash images, but the images flashed from fb don't work. flashing via recovery mode (and only eng. rom) works.

                                  @0xinit69 Can you try the latest available ROM for your device and flash it through fastboot?
