Xiaomi decided to commit suicide and bricked all of its gray import smartphones with HyperOS 3 update.
If by any chance you have a Chinese phone with global firmware (or just suspiciously affordable Xiaomi and POCO), do not update your phone. And disable automatic updates.
The phone now checks the real region and the one the device was aiming for. And locks it into an infinite loop if they don't match. Some users were able to fix the issue by quickly manually rebooting the phone over and over at least 7 times. Then it rolls back to the old system.
