FOR DUAL SIM IMEI REDMI 9 LANCELOT - Redmi 9 / Poco M2 Guides, News, & Discussion

FOR DUAL SIM IMEI REDMI 9
REDMI 9 IMEI NULL/ERROR
1. PREPARE rom_eng/CSC according to each device, take the file preload&cust&md1img to be replaced or moved to a global rom
(use: when reading dimauimeta it's easier & can directly write imei , remember only imei
2, if you want everything you have to install the STROMBAKER FOR LANCELOT kernel)
2. Direct flash global rom version preferably below 11.8.O (remember to replace 3 files numbered 1), after flashing, open Mauimeta and click connect, just unplug and plug it in directly without having to turn it off, write only IMEI 2 (safe for initial boot and backup process), then disconnect & turn on the cellphone normally.
3. After the main menu appears, just check the IMEI has appeared in *#06# or in the settings, if you can unlock the bootloader, you can go to the next stage.
4. unlockbootloader, install twrp preferably version 3.5.2, then in twrp backup only nvdata & nvram& boot, then install strombreaker kernel or special interest in lancelot.
5. directly open Mauimeta click connect, in twrp just restart the system and finally Mauimeta reads automatically, then enter both IMEI and restart again, and check IMEI *#06#
6. if you want to keep using the kernel, you don't have to continue this step, but if you want the original kernel, we continue.
back to twrp, just restore the backup results and restart, check the imei, both are still complete and change only the kernel (return to the original kernel)
7. I tried to upgrade to a rom, the only remaining IMEI 2, if you want 2 IMEI to read, do the above steps again.
ATTENTION: do not update the rom for sure the imei will be lost.
my advice:
MAUIMETA ~ requires preload reading which I suggest replacing earlier & cdc (well, we install this cdc manually, download the file, when Mauimeta asks for our cdc in the computer manager and we install it manually on the reading in question in the computer manager).
LIBUSB~ is useful for locking the mtk preload when first plugged into the computer.
BYPASSMTK~ is useful for locking preloads but with preload changed from rom_eng, so bypass software is not needed when flashing.
so the important thing from these 3 points is the cdc file
very few people want to explain this wide in my opinion.
thanks for CAMMARA.

I tried it with Miui 12.5 with android 11 and it didn't worked. I mean, I already had the IMEI 2 written and working, but when I installed the stormbreaker kernel it was softbricked, and not detected by MauiMETA. So I didn't go any further. Is there any advice for this?

the essence of writing imei is only preload from rom_eng and md1img.img from rom_eng
the process
1. just flash preload and md1img
preload : to read boot without complicated bypass
md1img : for imei writing permission
after flash md1img we must format nvdata and nvram from flashtool so that no errors occur when entering Mauimeta (data format is in scatter)
2. For IMEI writing, use the Mauimeta application, IMEI writing is only for IMEI Sim2, if all are written, there will be an error.
3. If you want 2 IMEIs to be written, you have to complete the above process until the start menu opens, then go back to TWRP, install the Strombreaker kernel, then open Mauimeta again, just write down all IMEIs (kernel works fine on ROM 11.0.9 or above)
required files:
1.preload.bin from rom_eng
2.md1img.img from rom_eng
3.mauimeta good version 10
4.cdc driver for advanced reading of mauimeta
5. flashtool with DA and AUTH, can be used bypass
6.unlockbootloader for those who want to use the strombreker kernel via twrp,
7. the root process is easier in minimaladb
100% success guaranteed

The preload and md1mg will be copied from rom eng? And then move it to global rom(11.0.9)? And then flash it?

remember only imei simcard 2 if you not instaling kernel
step
1.flasing v11.0.9
2.unlockboitloader & instal twrp
3.flash md1img & preload rom_eng
4.format nvdata & nvram, addres & partition in scatter rom folder image
5.open mauimeta write imei simcard2(if not use kernel),if 2 imei write after write imei you reboot to twrp and instaling kernel(best strombreaker)

4. after that open mauimeta(cdc drive is needed to read imei) write only imei simcard 2, reboot
5. Please enter micloud & register for the unlockbootloader process if needed.
# for already unlocked bootloader
6. root hp & go to twrp install strombreaker kernel, restart and enter mauimeta write both imei simcard 1 & 2

[HELP] 9300+ (mtk6577) PMT corrupted - can't upgrade firmware

Hi.
My 9300+ (chinese mtk6577) is dead... I have to updated wrong firmware and my phone will don't turn ON again, when I use the SP Flash Tool appears the message: "Firmware Upgrade could not be executed without PMT. Please "Download" ONLY first to create PMT on the target!
My internal partition is corrupted and i can't create PMT because my phone don't Turn On, but my USB is recognized by windows.
Please Help Me.

I know this is an old post, but this may help someone. (would have me a month ago)
Hopefully if your USB is seen in Windows you can convince SP Flash Tool to spew/download/write data to your phone while it's in Meta Mode.
I believe the PMT block is created by SP Flash Tool dynamically from scatter file. It's comparing the scatter file with what is sitting at the PMT address on the flash. If these two mismatch, you get the error you mentioned. If you want to force a new PMT that matches your scatter file's layout, you have to do a "Format" in SP Flash Tool. This will get you back to a PMT on flash that matches your scatter file, then SP Flash Tool will be happy and allow you to use Download (write to flash).
What is a PMT? A partition table that holds the addresses to all the other partitions.

PMT Corrupted & Format-all done
I faced the same error.......my PMT got corrupted (possibly due to an earlier attempt to re-size (system / data) partition using Swiftbootloader)...... & un-fortunately, I clicked on Format in SP Flash Tool as well.
Now all is gone.... phone doesn't switch on.........
Please guide...... to bring the bricked handset (Spice Mi-350n) to life again. I have backups..... but that relate to different scatter file (PMT) perhaps........ do I need to search & learn webos & acmeinstaller kind of things now?

Hi spandrd,
did u manage to resolve this problem. I am also facing this problem after attempting to re-size the partition using meteos mtk6589 rom edit apk .... Although my phone is still working properly without any issue, i am unable to root or install CWM by any means (tried mtk mobileuncle tools, tried spflash tool) but not working. Can you guide me how to root and install cwm as i am unable to revert to my old backup w/o cwm.

The best way to restore your phone was already answered in the previous post, that is to FORMAT your device and subsequently flash the official firmware.

Hi iZLeeP
Thanks for the quick reply. I dont have any official rom. The only backup i have is using the CWM backup of the official rom before applying a custom LG rom. If it is possible, how can i utilize the CWM backup of the official rom to revert back please ? I can see boot.img and recovery.img files in cwm backup; can i utilize them somehow to revert back ? Please help. Thanks.

Let me remind people, the first order of business must be to have a full firmware backup from the phone manufacturer or thru MTK Droid Root & Tools. Reading that you tried to resize your system & data partition, your cwm backup should not be affected by it. Try restoring to default the partition sizes using the app/script you used to resize. It should have that function. Then flash custom recovery and root and see if it works.
phone booting to main-screen or not?
hi HNaseer....
As replied by @syserr & @iZLeeP .............you can try to "Format-All / Format-All except bootloader" type of thing PROVIDED THAT YOU HAVE COMPLETE BACKUP OF RELEVANT PARTITIONS (till Cache and / or till FAT partition length) using SP Flash Tool........ & MTK Droid Tool......... PLUS, YOU WILL NEED IMEI BACKUP (IMEI No.) in such case if you want to restore.
SP Flash Tool needs Scatter File......... (obtainable thru MTK Droid Tool) & can help in backup of various partitions even if phone not turning on. BUT IMEI backup would be good........ IF YOU ARE ABLE TO BOOT / reach main screen after boot animation.
Rest of the details can be first read / understood from my MT6589 chipset type handset link from @Atrvscet : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2514419
Or, better search exact thread on xda / elsewhere to get stock / custom rom & flashing etc.
Lastly, if you are able to boot in recovery, best thing should be to flash / force flash original cwm backup from recovery.

HNaseer.... I agree with everything spandrd just said. I'd like to stress though, getting a backup of your NVRAM partition is much better than having MTKDT copy your /data/nvram. So if you have a choice, backup the NVRAM partition with SPFT or if MTKDT has that option use it. (I've rarely used MTKDT as I found aspects confusing)
Incredible.
Thank you so much. HAd almost given up hope...

Not sure what you are expecting to do with a FORMAT. If you had a good backup of your NVRAM partition, then what you would need is a SCATTER file and ROM files, you could FORMAT then DOWNLOAD the ROM files and your NVRAM file to your device with SPFT. But since you don't have your NVRAM partition, you don't have an easy path. FYI, I don't know new devices... there could be more complication than MT6577/75.

Try google, or search xda, or needrom.com...
This may or may not help you. If I were you I would use SPFT right now to try to backup your NVRAM partition if it's not too late. Your FORMAT may have wiped the NVRAM partition already. If it has wiped it, your only good path is to find someone willing to give you their NVRAM partition. Then somehow insert your own IMEI and WIFI MAC in and pray.

Recently I have noticed many people who tried to flash Custom ROM's on P780 and causes the phone to lose IMEI, Baseband, RIL, WiFi MAC, BT MAC, SN, comms etc. and causes connectivity issues (including me), which renders our phone turned into a "AndroidPod" media device that cannot make calls, SMS etc. As an example, my phone which faced the exactly same problem.

See the IMEI and baseband are still there in factory mode!!!
What could cause this is problem to occur is probably during ROM flashing process, the installer probably wiped out the /data/nvram (folder/partition). The /data/nvram (folder/partition) is the heart of your phone of all communicating feature, if the (folder/partition) is corrupted, just like I said, no communication features.
*Actually the baseband is there, but because the /nvram (folder/partition) has corrupted, the Android OS were unable to recognize it thus showing Unknown.
So no backup = Phone dead? Nothing but a media player?
First step, ensure your phone:
On Stock ROM
Rooted
PC have ADB drivers installed (If you don't have it please ask Uncle Google :good
Well, that isn't true, recently I found out, the phone can actually be easily recovered (on most MediaTek devices) and gain at least those comm features back by simply delete the whole /nvram (folder/partiton). If your phone coldn't recognize SIM card, wait a while after deleted the folder, your phone should have signal after maximum 10 seconds of waiting.
*In most of the cases MobileUncleTools give AT command failed to send probably the /nvram folder is corrupted, simply delete the NVRAM folder and reboot will do.
For WiFi MAC address fix (WiFi NVRAM WARNING: ERR 0x10), because the solution already been posted, so please click here.
Bluetooth MAC address fix: Firstly, using any File Explorer with Root abilities navigate to /data/nvram/APCFG/APRDEB/BT_Addr and also a BT_Addr file under /data, then copy both files to your PC. Then open up the file by using Hex Editor (HHD Hex Editor). To fix a static MAC address, just simply type in your MAC address on the first row (0000) from column (00-05). That is what your MAC address should be (Edit both files with the same MAC address). After you have modified it, put it back in the exact location and remember to change permission.
Actually you can also get restore your IMEI, WiFi MAC, BT MAC, SN by restoring a backup created by MTKDroidTools with other exact same model as your phone.

If not working after you've reflash the ROM, try delete the /nvram folder. Make a backup of the folder first with MTKDroidTools before delete!!!. (Although it is corrupted)

Scatter file is usually inside the unzipped ROM and has name : MT6589_Android_scatter_emmc.txt, read this link before once again.
U can try use small red button near memory card.

Hi. Look close here what i am writing.
First step is to download from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p780/development/rom-lenovo-p780-pre-rooted-official-t2553725
this: P780_ROW_S124_140403_rooted_twrp_gapps.7z
and from here flash tool: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23252070760972674
Second step is to unzip ROM and flash tool in separate folders.
Third step is to open flash tool.
After you open flash tool look in that picture i uploadet and see where you must introduce the scatter file is number 1. Press that button and browse in to the rom directory for the scatter file.
After that check DA/DLa with check button is number 2. DO NOT FORGET THIS STEP. IS CRUCIAL.
POWER OFF YOUR PHONE.
Press firmware upgrade button is near number 3, and after this insert the cable in to the phone. Flashing should start.

[GUIDE] FIX N950F efs failed to mount and dm-verify fail (unbrick)

The following is a guide for repairing failed to mount efs and dm-verify fail (drk error)
We finally did it ~~~
Warning - We will not take any responsibility for your device. Follow the steps at your own risk. If your device is Knox 0, This guide would convert it into Knox 1 due to TWRP. For solutions that does not convert to knox 1 check out payed remote solutions. Everything on your device will be reset, including efs partition. You will need backup of efs.
Test on N950F binary 4 may work on other exynos models comment below if it worked for other samsung devices.
Problem Detail -
Bootloop with samsung stock firmware boot logo.
Recovery error E:Failed to mount /efs (Invalid argument) or dm-verity verification failed...
Device cannot boot into Factory binary or Stock Rom​
Actions that could cause this problem -
Flashing a non-signed efs.img by odin
Corrupt flash of efs partition.​
Note - Must have efs backup for device to work (very important)
Any error that cause bootloop would show in recovery required if
Files Required
Latest Odin (recommend 3.13)
Working Stock firmware and Combination file (same binary as bootloader)
PC
Winrar or 7zip etc
Solution for efs failed bootloop-
Extract Stock firmware AP file (rename .md5 to .tar)
Rename dqmdbg.img to efs.img (or smallest image must be smaller than 8000 KB). Extract Dqmdbg.img.lz4 so it’s just “Dqmdbg.img” and then rename it to efs.img and put that one in a tar. Other option is downloading a file that’s already made this way if your bootloader is binary 4, Saves you trouble of extracting / renaming: http://www.mediafire.com/file/589wucja9rk2v8f/efs.tar/file (if you download this file just move onto number 3)
Add file new efs.img into tar archive.
Flash tar as AP file in odin + download mode
Reboot download mode
Flash Combination with odin + nand erase option on Edit: suggest you to flash stock rom first and oem unlock, don't need to wait for 7 days if imei is 0000 skip combination step
Device Should boot into Factory binary
Use IME to restore imei using *#06# (or imei 0000 in stock rom) Edit: This step is not required if efs backup is restored successful
Your device should have dm-verify failed in recovery due to drk error
Continue drk bypass for dm verify error below to continue
Solution for dm-verify error (also known as drk bypass - but temporary read note)-
Extract Stock firmware AP file
Make a copy of boot.img and delete recovery.img
Note - if files is boot.img.lz4 format change name to recovery.img.lz4
Rename boot.img copy to recovery.img
Add all the files (including other files extracted) to tar.
Flash Modded AP file with BL, CP, CSC (nand erase not required)
The phone will boot into stock firmware
Note- cannot reboot, will stuck at dm-verify error again and need to flash modded AP again.
Wait 7 days to oem unlock phone or use 7 day bypass by changing dates (not always work, keep trying, don’t reboot, worked for Samsunguser932 Edit: Imei must be 0000)
Edit: oem unlock will fix drk - if not you must follow next step
Once oem unlock flash TWRP and restore efs backup Edit: if you haven't fixed imei fix now by *#06# with combination file
Flash stock firmware once again by odin (stock, not modded)
Done - phone is back to normal
If you cannot be bothered doing by yourself you can pay https://www.facebook.com/gsm.xraxxx/ to do this.
(after he used plexihub to fix phone, i believe he is using similar method. It doesn’t seem fair to post this guide as i’ll be damaging his income but it seemed also unfair to keep this as a secret. If you want to donate to me please donate to him and his team instead at https://spacial-file.com/ or paypal [email protected] Thx)

Share it with those in need.
edit: not all images were able to upload
update: to skip 7 day oem unlock imei must be 0000
The best method for bypassing oem unlock for 7 days.
Requirements - clean phone with stock firmware, samsung account logged in, imei 0000
Go to setting and check for manual update. This will fail/stuck and oem unlock would appear in development settings

Try the above guide. This guide isn't just designed for the note 8.

You do not need an efs.img to repair efs failed to mount. It is only required for the functionality of the phone (sim). This guide would work without an efs.img, it is recommended to install a custom rom after the guide. Even though this guide can allow you phone to work, but due to drk/dm-verify errors, it is currently impossible to restore the phone to the original state.
Note - you'll need to find someone that is kind enough to share a copy/backup of their efs.img g955F. Most people think it is illegal to share as the efs.img contain imei, but with cpid devices, the imei would be overridden by your current device. Most importantly you need to change the serial number in the SVC (or else you will have the same serial number as the person sharing.
plz my problem is oem lock on, frp on and drk error. i have combination file and stock can your guide work for me?

This would only work if you're still on binary 3. Follow the steps for DM verity fix with 7.1.1 firmware. Flash stock 7.1.1 with replaced boot.img using Odin and fix frp using adb (guides online to enable adb). Wait for 7 day OEM unlock (no method to skip do not restart). Flash twrp and use twrp to flash custom ROM or DM verify fix.
Note - this method would fix function ability of the phone only if efs is not corrupted. (If you had paid someone to fix efs, this would not work). Finally the phone will become Knox 1 and normal update functions might not work. Practically makes the phone unable to resell as a working phone.
Hello. My efs partition was erased by a z3x box. Or an octopus, I do not know. I followed your instructions. The IME combination is empty. I install a modified firmware, it works but I can not enter the Samsung account (crashing), I can not check the system updates (infinite device registration). Should I wait 7 days before the OEM unlock? Will it work?
@Alarg read post 2 to skip 7 days. Infinite device registration should make OEM unlock show with samsung account logged in. OEM unlock must be first done before installing modified firmware (suggest kernel). You must have backup of efs, a backup from another phone will not work.

I can't log in Samsung account (processing failure). Imei unknown, s/n 0000000000 This method does not work for me.
@Alarg Which firmware ver are you using?
Have you tried nand flash combination file and then flash firmware (before boot, hold download mode buttons so the phone won't boot to factory mode). I do not see a reason why Samsung account would not work, try another ver maybe the version you downloaded is corrupted.

Note -
dm verify cannot be completely fixed, it can only be bypassed (in the system by flashing no dm verify).
You will need to wait for 7 days for oem unlock (there is no method to skip oem unlock)
Warranty will be voided (KNOX 1) - don't think there is a method to avoid tripping knox.
Suggest installing a custom rom after oem unlock (many reports that no dm verify on latest oreo does not work without root)

EFS partition is not touched when flashing roms (they actually do but in a safe way), only retards like I would try to mod efs partition.
Hi guys, will it work in my case? https://ibb.co/mJRcHK
Device is SM-N950N FRP ON and OEM ON.
What kind of solution should I follow?
@Anvar2005 - This looks like a drk verify error. Which binary are you on? frp bypass only works with binary 3. You will not find anything for frp unlock on this forum. Same steps for drk verify but use nougat.

I would like to thank TeamWin for their amazing work!
I saw that the newer Samsung MediaTek phones were not getting any sort of love, so I bought one myself to kick start the development.
I have already made TWRP for M32 & A41 and thought why not add support for a sister device.
KEEP IN MIND THIS IS A BETA BUILD, expect bugs!
TWRP is the obvious choice as it is reliable and trustworthy with frequent updates and patches.
INSTALLATION:
Odin Method (Windows):
Step 0: Unlock Device Bootloader by toggling the OEM Unlock option in Developer Options. Device will reboot to Odin mode and will prompt you to long press volume up, device will then unlock bootloader and perform a complete factory reset so make sure to backup any data.
Step 1: Download the unofficial TWRP image from the link attached below.
Step 2: Put the device in Odin download mode by holding VolumeUp+VolumeDown and inserting USB cable after the device is completely shut down.
Step 3: Select the downloaded recovery.tar in AP slot and vbmeta_disabled_R.tar in USERDATA slot, connect the device to PC, go to options and untick "Auto-Reboot"
Step 4: Click START and the Device will get flashed, Odin will say SUCESS!.

First time you boot into TWRP, don't forget to backup your EFS, Secondary EFS and NVRAM! Go into Backup and select "EFS,", "Secondary EFS" and "NVRAM" and backup to preferably MicroSDcard and copy it to your PC in case you need it if IMEI corrupts.

i tried with both odin and heimdall
First off, the twrp itself boots. But I couldn't find "System" or "Super" in erase section. I am not sure how useful it will be if I can't erase that before flashing another image.

This error is not from TWRP itself. He just didn't unmount the partitions first. That's all. I didn't get the error when I dismounted first. Without dismounting, I see 16 unable to unlock errors.
Update: Another setback, TWRP can't flash super images. Only way would have been to use fastboot which is botched by uncle sam. Any other way to flash gsi images to this?

Actually, The errors persists even after I unmount the partitions before flashing.
The errors are there whether I mount or unmount the partitions(at least for my device), but the correct procedure is unmounting before flashing.

Beats me.
[edit: /system partition is by default always unmounted before flashing a zip]
I should have heeded the warning. I didn't backup EFS, Secondary EFS and NVRAM.
Now , there is no IMEI and cant use the sim.
Is there any solution to this?
Thank you in advance.

I am fighting myself real hard not to reply with akhils avatar, but efs (for sure) and nvram (can't say for sure) is included in the stock, flash stock, probably gonna be alright.

There're these packages.... DynaPatch is less known and probably not so much polished and then there's the ChonDoe_Flasher, they can be used to flash gsi and then there was a linux thingy which is used to pack system.img into super.img with vendor.img and others so that twrp can flash it directly.

I would like to thank TeamWin for their amazing work!
I saw that the newer Samsung MediaTek phones were not getting any sort of love, so I bought one myself to kick start the development.
I have already made TWRP for M32 & A41 and thought why not add support for a sister device.
KEEP IN MIND THIS IS A BETA BUILD, expect bugs!
TWRP is the obvious choice as it is reliable and trustworthy with frequent updates and patches.
INSTALLATION:
Odin Method (Windows):
Step 0: Unlock Device Bootloader by toggling the OEM Unlock option in Developer Options. Device will reboot to Odin mode and will prompt you to long press volume up, device will then unlock bootloader and perform a complete factory reset so make sure to backup any data.
Step 1: Download the unofficial TWRP image from the link attached below.
Step 2: Put the device in Odin download mode by holding VolumeUp+VolumeDown and inserting USB cable after the device is completely shut down.
Step 3: Select the downloaded recovery.tar in AP slot and vbmeta_disabled_R.tar in USERDATA slot, connect the device to PC, go to options and untick "Auto-Reboot"
Step 4: Click START and the Device will get flashed, Odin will say SUCESS!.
Step 5. Exit Download mode by holding VolumeDown+PowerButton and then immediately boot
into Recovery mode by pressing VolumeUp+PowerButton.
Step 6: Congratulations, you have installed TWRP latest for your F22 4G, to access the system now, you need to perform some additional steps.
Step 7: Open up TWRP terminal and then type in "multidisabler" and then perform a full factory reset again by going into "Wipe" -> Format Data -> type "yes"

Just ignore those errors.
Hello there! Is there any files that I could directly use to flash twrp? I already am root through magisk and didn't find the supported module/device of twrp which I downloaded from play store. Still no support for F22. So how do I install it? Without any desktop or pc. directly through my rooted phone? Thanks!
I haven't tried it yet, but in theory, shouldn't it work with android S & T if the appropriate vbmeta is flashed?
There is a new binary update, u5. Downgrading won't be possible and this device has only this twrp for it, to my knowledge.

It's a system partition.
Backup using SP Flash Tool V6 (from Mi Flash Pro Tool) by using Read Back and using mtkmeta utility for bypassing authentication file.
Install Microsoft visual C++ 2015 - 2022 Redistributable for SP Flash tool V6 to work.. RESTART PC AFTERWARDS
Install the libusb-win32.....driver and install the filter after setup by using your phone in BROM ( when power off, press and hold volume up and down together and connect USB to PC, Then you will see your phone detected on Filter installer wizard and select it and click install quickly as possible (within 3 seconds). other wise the phone is going to disconnect and boot back.
You also need to download the firmware and load the scatter file in to the SP Flash tool and Bypass authentication using MTKMETA Utility and go to read back to back up these Partitions in Img or bin format. USE Youtube for this purpose.
no sry to complicate

It's ok
These are the partition of Poco M4 Pro 4G after losing IMEI and restoring it using DFT Pro. I formatted the phone afterwards and the IMEI was not permanent and it showed NVDATA corrupted and was not able to boot. These was the partition before getting the error. I did restore the partition and it showed the same error. Hope someone find it useful.... Use MI Flash Pro > SP flash tool V6 to restore.
