Redmi Note 10 5G — Unable to get past Device Identification thing

[Frankiscophil]

I'm really hoping someone can lend a hand and help me with this. I've seen other Redmi Note 10 5G phones work without issues when using MTKClient but mine just refuses to. My guess is it has to do with it saying "no preloader given" as that seems to be an issue unique to me. So far, after a few hours of internet browsing and sleuthing, I haven't found any other device using this software that had the same preloader issues.

Here's what comes up every time I attempt to have my device recognized or when I try to flash files to it.

Again, I really hope someone can come in and tell me what might be wrong so I can unbrick my phone. Thank you in advanced.

Tested on Redmi 10 5G and I cannot confirm that there is any issue with mt6833. As stated, use proper preloader in brom mode using --preloader.

Hmm possible that it is a problem with my Oppo A79 5G then... I don't think it should be any different from the device you are using....
