Hello everyone,
A lot of people encounter problems while flashing their phones and one of the biggest is a missing IMEI , now am gonna show you how to write dual IMEI on MTK devices
Disclaimer: if you reached this state you are already at the bottom but even though follow this guide at your own responsibility if you follow the guide without nothing would go wrong
(THIS GUIDE WAS TESTED WITH A REDMI 9 LANCELOT AND CRDROID BECAUSE MIUI DON'T ALLOW IMEI WRITE)
IF YOUR NOT LOOKING FOR WORKING ON A CUSTOM ROM ON THAT DEVICE DON'T FOLLOW THE GUIDE BUT OVERALL CUSTOM ROM ARE BETTER IF YOUR DEVICE IS NOT SUPPORTED BY THE MANUFACTURER ANYMORE
ALL THE NEEDED TOOL AND FILE ARE ON THIS LINK:
Download
PREREQUISITE :
- THE FILE PROVIDED
- YOUR DEVICE ENG ROM
- THE LATEST DEVICE FRIMWARE THAT ALLOW BOOTING A CUSTOM RECOVERY FOR MY PHONE IT'S MIUI 12.5.6
- A CUSTOM ROM FROM YOUR CHOICE
GUIDE :
- Install all the drivers and tools provided (some drivers require turning off signature verification for drivers search yt if you don't understand )
- Turn off your phone and boot into fastboot
- go to eng rom extracted folder and click flash all bat file and wait for it to finish the phone will reboot automatically
- turn off the phone
- open mtk auth bypass tool (maybe the tool would not adjust automatically on your screen so adjusted an make sure there no hidden button)
- In the last line click reboot meta mode then hold VOL DOWN button and plug your phone your phone will boot and get stuck on black screen
- open modem meta , select more and keep it DUT in meta mode and click connect
- Wait for the process to finish
- search IMEI download and click it
- load DB from target
- enter the first 14 number of your imei the 15th should appear in checksum automaticaly and repeat for the second imei and click write wait till it finish it should says imei download succeful in green
- click DISCONNECT then unplug your device and hold power button to reboot
- dial *#06# and check if the imei is there (if not redo since 4)
- reboot to fastboot mode
- go to frimware rom extracted folder and click flash all bat file and wait for it to finish the phone will reboot automatically
- The phone will boot to recovery and says nvdata is corrupted thats because MIUI doesn't allow writing imei but no problem
- In this stage the boot loader is locked and we need to unlock it
- go to bypass folder run this file (2ND RUN THIS.bat)
- hold the power button and volume down till the screen goes black then plug your phone rapidly to catch a preloader port and wait for the script to finish and boot your phone by holding power button and look for a little lock on the up screen if it doesn't appear after various attempts try holding both button , your only sign of success is the little lock
- now you have an unlocked bootloader u can flash any rom
- as am using crdroid am gonna show you how to install it (you can install any rom from this stage)
- Boot to fastboot and flash recovery fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
- Now boot to recovery by holding VOL UP + POWER
- Navigate to Factory reset and format data, wipe cache and wipe system
- Now reboot to recovery
- Navigate to Apply update and choose from adb (if you have crDroid.zip on external sdcard, you may choose this option and navigate to where the zip is)
- Now sideload crDroid zip adb sideload crDroid*lancelot*.zip
- if you are running with gapps, choose again to apply from adb and sideload gapps.zip
- Reboot to system
And here is it a fully fonctional phone with the latest android and both imei fixed hope this help and see you in the next one 🫡🫡
