I think I need original factory image

Factory Image won't work unfortunately...I purchased a stock image of my Phone. But made the mistake of using one of the DGTKS files that was closest to my L09 model as instructed in the unbrick method (METHOD 2) I succeeded in unbricking my phone and then flashing my Factory Image but lost my imei & serial...so I used HCU to reinstate my imei etc and managed to get a very week signal that would cut out as soon as you went inside or jumped in the car.
Nothing I tried worked ( flashed modem img etc) I had the phone back to out of the box state ( Bootloader locked ...stated in Fastboot ) but weak signal. I took it back to the manufacturer who didn't seem to detect that I had mucked around with the firmware and replaced the motherboard under warranty.
I was given a second chance and dodged an expensive bullet.....I havn't even unlocked the bootloader on the replacement phone.
XDA site needs to warn people to stay away from this method (method 2) If I ever was stupid enough to brick my phone again, I would use the Phoenix tool only to flash my own firmware and never their modified DGTKS files which I can concur that the NXT files for the mate 8 have all been removed from their supported firmware list.

As i tel to other people , you need to erase modemnvm_factory / modemnvm_system / modemnvm_backup partions and to flash them with a partions comming from a full working mate 8
Tested and worked my mate 8 work correctly now
But sorry for all who wait for solution i can't share this files it's the choice of the person who helped me to do this and they have right
I will do my possible to try to help you all as soon as possible

For the moment i used dc-pheonix and xml scrypt that i have edited from an original factory rom unpacked not like the one in dc unocker
Edited it to erase and write the new partions only
But the right partions have to be dumped from a fully working mate 8 and than flashed to your bricked one
I will try to create a free solution soon to do not have to pay again dc unlocker

Unknow Baseband Probleam

How do I install the Mix2S baseband?
Baseband of device was completely erased when installing rum?

Do u have any backup before?

to the nearest xiaomi's centre! Change the new board! That's the easy way.
Restore the edited .xqcn file will get ur baseband/imei back, but not ur simcard. try edl flash but needs for authorized account.

I live in Turkey. How to get to Xiaomi Center? No stores here.

I had this happened on my mix 2s before. I've tried everything, none of them works accept test point/edl mode. Try that, check if ur account if authorized or ask for someone's.

Do you have a different idea?

Try edl mode by using test point method. I never try that yet. Hope it works.

As a new Mi Mix 2S owner who is waiting for bootloader unlock and researching ROMs, what steps do I take to backup this data before I do anything risky on my device so I'm not in the same predicament?

U can follow that for additional backup procedure. Backup via twrp, 'efs' & 'modem'. For qpst, backup the *.xqcn file (contains ur imei n all)

100% of people who tried that destroyed their device. It does not work. Do not suggest others try something we know will destroy their device. If you don't know, do not openly suggest it.

[Solved]Need help with a locked device

Hello! My device wifi just stopped turning on, and I did reset networking config but that didn't solve the problem, so I reset It. Now I have a device with no networking at all, and now it's also locked because I didn't sign out of my xiaomi account. I wanted to unlock the device and try another rom to see if that solves the problem, but I can't do that since I need first activate the device.
About the device:
-No root
-No developer options enabled
-Wifi doesn't toggle on
-Sim card is not recognized (already tried other ones, in both slots)
-Xiaomi assistance doesn't want to help me at all (neither the seller btw)
I hope you guys could help me. I'm very frustrated because it's a recent new phone :c

Are you able to unlock phone. If yes then you can test the things through QC test by typing this in dialer *#*#64663#*#*

I cant unlock it :c
But before messing with this lock, I tried to test wifi but without success...
As mentioned in a thread, an update could solve the problem, but I need to unlock the bootloader

By EDL, I mean a kind of brute force to flash ROM. Used mainly when hard bricked. As you don't have unlock permission you have to use this method to flash Factory ROM. You can find Instructions in YouTube videos for "Redmi Note 6 pro EDL flashing guide Test point method"

I've just bought a smartphone repair toolkit from Amazon, and I'm waiting for it because I don't have the needed tools to open the device and do the EDL by myself. It might get here around next week, and when done, I say if that worked.

I tried the EDL test points, but the device doesn't vibrate and turn on :c
EDIT: I was doing it wrong, I need firstly to connect the pins, and juts then connect the USB cable. I was doing the opposite hahaha
Windows Device Manager does recognize it, but Mi Flash still doesn't recognize the device on refresh, giving the error "length cannot be less than zero". I'm doing some search.

Actually, after flashing a new rom, after 12h the wifi issue returned, and I used this tool: https://www.xiaomitool.com/V2/
I used the option to flash an official rom, followed the app steps, and after the download finished, it couldn't be installed because of a bug So I repeated the steps, but instead of downloading again, i used the already downloaded rom (it is in the app installation folder). Then, success! Has been 2 days with no problem
About the auth itself, even by using EDL, after the reboot, I was prompted again by the mi account... So if you don't have the account, I'm afraid I can't help you... :c
I used this tutorial for the EDL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WfOprRVQww

Firstly, I don´t know why you flash an image that is for other device.
After that mistake, you also flashed a file that is -again- for a different device.
You may need a PC in order to try to recover your device and...

Sorry mate, it´s funny, you said to me the same some days ago, but no response at all, it would be enough, if you know a specific step to bypass that, by the way, tools like Unlock Tool injects some specific file to get it, but free apps like SPFT doesn´t have it.
