IGNORE THIS GUIDE IF YOU CAN BOOT TO 9008 MODE USING A SPECIAL EDL CABLE.

May this guide help other POCO F4 GT/K50 Gaming users/technicians/developers in case of hard-brick due to software issues.
You may do this at your own, but I strongly recommend to go to Xiaomi/POCO/Redmi repair shop/Service Centers or to a certified technician in case of hard brick to properly diagnose the problem of your device.

How to boot to 9008 Mode using test point method:

1. Disconnect your phone from PC.
2. Disconnect battery flex (you need to disconnect this because the other test point is under this flex).
3. Press and Hold and short 2 pin via pincet or tweezers.
4 . Connect USB cable (preferably use the cable provided from the box).
5. When the device vibrates, release the pincet or tweezers and connect the battery flex fast. (On my first try, device exits 9008 Mode if you haven't connected the battery within 10-15 seconds).

I will not include on this post how to install Qualcomm Drivers. You may search the forums/internet for that.

P.S. I wrote this up based on my experience. Don't come pointing a finger on me if something bad/worst happens.
P.S.S. I'm not a tech myself, but with background on this field (I.T. graduate).

Glad to hear that your device was saved. You saved so much because I had paid $29 for the tech guy.
