my mi 11 is bricked

[yogevm15]

I've tried to flash android 12 beta and accidentally locked my device,
now my device is locked and there is no rom or recovery, I can only access fastboot.
When I try to unlock it, says "please add your account in miui settings" but I can't do that because I have no rom.
what can I do?

is it not possible to flash stable rom with mi flash again?

Sounds like an EDL flash may be your best option.

No, because my bootloader is locked.

can you explain this?

An EDL flash is flashing a ROM at a lower level than recovery or fastboot and does not matter about unlocked bootloaders as it uses an authorised account access that only an EDL guy can use. They can flash any stock ROM variant but you need to download it first and then the EDL guy will use team viewer to access the phone through the PC. He may well require a certain version of miflash too but he will explain it. It does cost but when I used him it was £23 to reflash my 11 Ultra, so it may be different cost depending who you use. I use this guy through telegram, https://t.me/unbrickRUFacebook. But there are others about, see 11 ultra bricked threads! Hope you can get it back working again.

U can flash official Fastboot ROMs with locked bootloader.
