I am using a Redmi Note 15 Pro+ 5G Global model (Fluorite) not the Chinese version I had its bootloader unlocked through a paid service when I first bought the phone.


The first time I repaired the IMEI, the process was completed successfully with dft pro . And phone boot normally I'm using kernel su on that time and before repairing, I also created a complete backup of the EFS partition and the original IMEI using dft pro . After the repair was successful, I'm using my phone normally but after some time I restored the original IMEI using my DFT Pro, backup and it was restored without any issues and phone work normally.


Now, after some time, I am trying to repair the IMEI again using DFT Pro, but I am facing a problem. The phone no longer boots properly—it keeps restarting on the MI logo (bootloop). I also try flashing eng firmware but nothing could work issue remain same phone not boot also with eng firmware after repairing IMEI

And I do a temporary fix ?


I have done some research myself and found that the issue seems to be related to the root solution being used. APatch is one of the root solutions that patches the boot image. If I perform the IMEI repair with APatch, the repair completes successfully and the phone boots normally. However, root does not work properly with APatch specialy modules and hiding features not working .


The first time I repaired the IMEI, I used KernelSU, and everything worked correctly. But now the phone does not boot with KernelSU, nor does it boot with any other root solution. Only APatch allows the phone to boot, but root functionality is broken.
If anyone face the same issue and found any solution please let me know thanks

I don't think this is a repair algorithm error because, a few days later, I worked on another device of the exact same model that my friend had purchased brand new. I repaired its IMEI using the same method, and it also had KernelSU installed. I used DFT Pro with the exact same procedure, and the IMEI repair was successful. That phone is still working perfectly.I think the real issue is that once you repair the IMEI on a brand-new phone for the first time, DFT Pro doesn't allow you to repair it again. This appears to be a software glitch Even if you back up the original EFS and later restore it, it still won't let you repair the IMEI a second time. This seems to be a bug in DFT Pro. In my case I already restore original efs after repair so second time it is not possible to repair using dft pro i really don't know what is going on what is main issue let's hope for the best
