Xiaomi devices are popular for custom development, allowing users to install custom ROMs and recovery tools. However, these processes come with risks, such as causing the device to malfunction. If you can access Fastboot Mode, you can fix the device using specific commands. But if Fastboot isn’t available, you can still recover your Xiaomi device using a special tool.
MediaTek devices have a Download Mode, which is used to fix unresponsive devices. The SP Flash Tool is used for this, but recent security measures mean only authorized service centres can perform repairs. Fortunately, an exploit now allows anyone to bypass these restrictions and fix their device.
