Hello, I have a Redmi 10 5G. While trying to restore the original system, I accidentally deleted the `seccfg.img` file and didn't make a backup. Now, even after flashing the system using SP Flash Tool, the screen remains black and the phone is stuck in a BROM loop. Is there any way to save it? Please.

Erasing seccfg shouldn't cause the phone to get stuck in BROM (dead boot).

Could you shed some light on this part?

What could be the cause of it getting stuck in that boot loop after I deleted that file? The issue started when the phone updated from MIUI 13 to HyperOS 1 and an "nvdata" error appeared. I tried flashing the original ROM but ran into a bootloader error; following some instructions I found, I deleted the `seccfg` file using the command `python mtk.py e seccfg`. Since then, the screen has gone black and it's stuck in a boot loop. From what I've gathered, I need the `seccfg` file from another Redmi 10 5G or a device on the same "Light" platform.

It's probably RPMB. What tools do you have besides MTKClient?
