Hello, Friends from Xiaomi .eu

So long story short, I was trying to fix my Redmi Note 8's charging issue (slow charging and charges only when booted to OS). Then I decided to install a new rom from twrp (current was MIUI China, trying to install Xiaomi .eu) hoping that it might solve the issue but dumb me accidentally wiped the "system" partition during the wiping proccess. Now I am greeted with "The system has been destroyed" message". Cannot boot to twrp anymore. I really regretted doing that.

P.S. tried fastboot, doesn't work, ask for more

Anyone, please help. All suggestions are welcome.

@Alan098765 , Thanks for replying friend

Bro I don't know why but my pc doesn't detect the Redmi Note 8 in fastboot. Tried MiFlash, still not detecting.
Tested my friend's Xiaomi Phone and behold, it is recognized. ???

Here's a pic

Maybe you haven't installed any drivers that's why your computer can't detect your phone. Download and install adb and fastboot drivers, then download mi flash, and download the fastboot rom for your device (either global or china rom will do as long as it's a .tgz file).
 
Also Mi Flash won't detect your phone if it is still on the "The system has been destroyed" screen. Try to boot into fastboot mode.
