Installation fails on Redmi Note 9 (merlin)

MrT10001

@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

@0xinit69
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?

0xinit69

@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.

MrT10001

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

@MrT10001 It doesn't work right now.
