If your Xiaomi 14 Pro Titanium (Satellite Edition) is bootlooping, showing “Invalid IMEI”, or has no network, you can recover it by flashing the official Fastboot ROM and restoring the original IMEI using Qualcomm tools.
📱 What Is Stock Firmware?
Stock firmware (Fastboot ROM) is Xiaomi’s official software package for restoring the system. Flashing it helps:
- Fix bootloop, soft-brick, or system crashes
- Remove root, Magisk, or custom ROMs
- Repair corrupted or missing system files
- Restore IMEI and fix mobile network issues
- Improve performance and system integrity

- You see “Invalid IMEI”, or no SIM/no service
- HyperOS is corrupted or behaves erratically
- You want to unroot, remove Magisk, or return to stock
- You need to downgrade firmware safely

- Charge battery to at least 50%
- Backup QCN before flashing if your IMEI is valid
