Well, today I was playing with my phone trying to get Lineage OS to work, and I got a bootloop. Thankfully, I had a full backup of all the partitions of the phone, made with TWRP, and restored it. It failed to restore the FIRMWARE partition, and now I'm left without an IMEI or WiFi MAC plus my sim card is not detected.

NEVER RESTORE THE FIRMWARE PARTITION IN TWRP OR YOUR IMEI WILL BE LOST

To solve this you simply need to flash Xiaomi.eu rom from recovery or any other miui rom (you can do it via the fastboot method). I'll try and do a guide later, but I leave this here so that if anyone else faces this problem can have it solved.

Mix Max 2 imei problem

Hello
How can I do that if my bootloader is locked? Any chance to do that?
I can't unlock it because mi account id was lost like imei and other information.
Comment please. Thanks.
