So far nobody was able to get such model unless I missed something. And the whole point of the decoherence exercise is to avoid Born rule as it implies a truly classical subsystem and we are back to where we started.

If you model it as e.g. a quantum system with a state space that describes what you're measuring, coupled to a thermal bath, then it works. What kind of model are you looking for? Real measuring instruments are probably too big to ever model the full quantum state space of all the particles they're made up of, for example. > And the whole point of the decoherence exercise is to avoid Born rule as it implies a truly classical subsystem What do you mean by "truly classical"? The Born rule implies that our experience is the same as if we found ourselves within one of an ensemble of possible classical-like states with a certain probability, but, well, experimentally that's what we do; any interpretation of quantum mechanics needs to be able to recover that reality.
