Hello. I bought a Redmi Note from China through Aliexpress. It is a WCDMA version. I have few issues.
1. SIM card doesnt get detected. I can see all my contacts but the network doesnt show up. It says "Emergency calls only"
2. The MIUI version on my phone is MIUI-JHECNBA12.0. Where as if i check the latest MIUI download in the xiaomi website, it is JHDCNBE23.0. I tried to download this ROM and flash and even after flash it can see old version only(JHECNBA12.0). What surprises me is that the ROM version JHECNBA12.0 is TD version's first released ROM.
3. When i checked if the Redmi note is original or fake by entering IMEI no and serial no, i can that the date of purchase and place of purchase is displayed. But below it there is a note which says as " As described receiving information does not match with your personal information, please confirm whether the official channels of the purchase."

Can you all please help me to sort these issues. Should i keep the phone or you recommend to return it.
 
Goto setting, about and it will shown:

stay away from aliexpress, it's just like Amazon store but too many faked and incorrect advertising. If you want to claim for money back and good luck.
-More than half of Xiaomi products online are faked. Xiaomi failed to certified which stores sell genuine product. Most of Xiaomi stores not shipping offshore, we are now buy at our own risk.

if you can boot to recovery, then downloaded the 23 romantic and flashed it through recovery, else you had to fellow this: http://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/sp-flash-tool-guide-unbrick-your-device.24488/page-3#post-214492

You can follow the procedure as below. I hope it works for you.

1. Fist of all Root your Redmi Note. Find rooting instructions here
2. Then install the custom Recovery (TWRP) on your note. Get it here. (download and save it in sd card)
3. Use Mobiluncle Tools to flash the recovery image from Sd card. Link for mobile recovery tools : here
(the instructions on using mobile uncle tools can be viewed here :
4. Download the latest ROM from the xiaomi official site and save it to SD card. Then reboot to custom recovery using mobile uncle tools and install this ROM via custom recovery (TWRP).
Be sure to backup any personal data from the internal memory and factory reset before install, after install then wipe cache and dalvik then reboot.
(You can search Google for getting instructions on using TWRP)
I am not responsible for any damage caused to you. So, please do solely at your own your risk!!!
