Mi Flash didn't do anything, I tried 6-7 versions of Miui 9 (some of them is the first MIUI 9 Versions for mi note 3) I tried latest MIUI 10, China Dev, stable, global Dev and stable!!!

This procedure might fix problem but will clear whole memory

1 Backup from twrp only "persist" image and save it elsewhere (if you wish to try to restore your system later, then backup EVERY PARTITION and also save everything that's on internal memory elsewhere, IT WILL BE DELETED WITH PROCEDURE)
2 Install from twrp as zip this file: https://www.mediafire.com/file/pjqui3toyxgr5c8/sensorfix.zip/file
3 flash from fastboot WITHOUT LOCKING BACK BOOTLOADER every single version, FROM OLDER TO NEWER, of these roms in THIS ORDER:
FROM OLDER TO NEWER china developer
FROM OLDER TO NEWER china stable
FROM OLDER TO NEWER global stable
4 when flashed the latest rom, check if everything works
5 if it does, you're good to go! If you wish to install a custom rom just do like you normally do, but remember:
DON'T EVER WIPE "PERSIST" IN TWRP NEVER EVER EVER AGAIN!!!
6 (optional) if you want to try to recover your old system, normally install the same exact version of the rom you had before with a clean flashing, and then from twrp wipe cache, dalvik, data, system and internal storage and recover data and system, copy the old internal storage files inside internal storage and reboot

Hi !
Would this method and "sensorfix" file work on Mi6 with exact problem ?
Thanks

I can't guarantee, but mi6 should have the same hardware sensors as mi note 3. Just try to find the persist backup of mi6 for safety. Anyway, if you backup the whole system, it shouldn't be a problem if it doesn't work, you just format everything included persist, restore whole system from backup and look out for another solution. Practically, persist partition is where drivers of sensors are stored, if you formatted before, once you format it you'll be in the same situation as now

Thanks for reply !
Think tried most suggested solutions but havent done step by step upgrades. Might try that.
Last state the phone is I have recovered IMEI, baseband, wifi mac but its still "acting". Sometimes after reboot wifi mac is null, sometimes baseband is unknown, sim is detected but no network. Sometimes all seems to be ok but still no wifi and network.
Might try from here to do upgrades in order you mentioned
