Ive requested unlock and got granted. Downloaded Mi Unlock but looks like it cant find it cause the unlock option stays greyed out. The Mi Suite cant connect to it either.
With adb minimal i can connect to it and request and oem device info.
Installed many versions of drivers but never working. Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Mi flash and minimal adb can see the device, unlock cant.
Account synced, device find on, usg debug on, same phone number, code validated.. I dont get it
........
Please, I need some help!
i have the exact same problem... no solutions so far but only got it yesterday so i hope i will figure it out. Have you figured it out? I want to try on another laptop / version of windows so thats my bet.
Had the same issue.....used another laptop and it worked. Both Laptops with W10 .....

When trying to unlock the bootloader I am stuck at 50% and it fails because it cannot verify the device.
My find device is set to on (some say it needs to be)
i have also tried to flash the dev rom using the flash tool but it runs to completion straight away and the phone remains in fastboot mode and doesn't reboot and so when manually rebooting nothing happens.
This is nearly 2 weeks of work to flash my phone because there is a virus in the Note application whereby advertisement banners appear when connected to the internet and with a malware scan the problem lies with a trojan in the note application meaning I have to flash the phone.
No progress at all in a week and I can seem to get around this 50% bootloader problem, does this mean Xiaomi haven't verified my request ? when logging into the bootloader it says checking permissions and then proceeds to log in, Its been 4 days no since I applied for permission to unlock the bootloader.
Help would be appreciated this is a new phone.
make sure you are on developer China rom , not stable
make sure you have checked usb debuging
make sure you are logged on mi account on device and on miflash

The developer rom flashes instantly like within a second so I am not convinced it has flashed.
usb debugging is on
find device is on
logged onto mi account
but how do you log onto the flash tool ? do you mean log into the bootloader unlock tool ?

are you saying log into the mi account in the flash tool ? is that possible ?
Your adb drivers are not properly installed. If you are you flashing this with windows 10, do it on windows 7 of you have a chance, i had same issue.
I am having no success with this
hi, i have tried every possible ways to unlock the bootloader,which i found on web, but still i am unable to unlock it.. :crying: i have unlock permission, MiFlashUnlock isn't working after 50%.. found on web that i have to flash china developer rom first then it will work, but MiFlash isn't working, whenever i click the 'flash' button within 2s it shows flash done but nothing happens to the device.. download mode/edl mode also not working, whenever i enter this mode the phone automatically rebooting.. please guide me what to do.. trying different methods from last 4-5days, it feels really frustrating now, but i want to unlock the bootloader.. please help me with a proper guide.. thank you
You don't need to flash any Dev ROM. Just use older MiUnlock tool. Before trying, update your Mi forum account, log in to mi cloud, update phone's driver and then try. If it still stuck at 50%, then just wait for some more days. It'll unlock normally.
About edl mode problem, I'm having the same problem now. Please inform me if you get any solution.
Make sure you login to the mi cloud + mi account on your phone + mi flash unlock using your mobile phone number that you used to get the unlock code. I had Global Rom and was stuck at 50% but unlocked with Global Dev ROM. Coincidence or not? I don't know, worth a try.. If you're on the Global ROM you can flash Global Dev through the updater app.
yes their database isn't updated i guess.. i think i have to wait few more days!
Hello this is my first post. I have searched the threads and internet for answers but I have not been able to find a solution.
I have been customizing my phones since the days of baked black bean on my galaxy S1, but I am no expert at this stuff. Until about a week ago, I was happily running RR on the OPO (great ROM) but it has gotten a bit slow so I figured it was time to get a OP5.
When I boot into fastboot, my device is recognized with the command fastboot devices. My phone showed the following:
fastboot mode
product_name - QC_Refernce_Phone
VARIANT - MSM UFS
BOOTLOADER VERSION -
BASEBAND VERSION -
SERIAL NUMBER - c7ccda2
SECURE BOOT - yes
DEVICE STATE - locked
When I ran fastboot oem unlock, CMD prompt shows FAILED, however, the option to unlock the bootloader shows up on the OP5. I go through the process and wipe data. My phone now shows that it is unlocked, and I go into developer options to get advanced reboot/USB debugging/verify OEM unlock is still enabled. When I go back to fastboot, I am unable to flash TWRP. I have now seen a number of errors, usually:
FAILED (remote: Requested download size is more than max allowed) or target did not report max download size, or command write failed (no error). I have tried installing 4 different versions of ADB/fastboot from different sources, and I have tried TWRP cheeseburger 46, 58, and 62. I have also tried two different USB ports and 4 different USB drivers.
Does anyone know what could cause these issues or how to get TWRP installed? Any help would be much appreciated. I really want to get rooted and get substratum running.
hmm
did you type fastboot devices to check that u got connection ? do you have another pc to try ? another usb port
edit: also try disable developer option and aplly it again with oem unlock tapp
EDIT2: if you cant still get it work you can try
Advanced settings -> Backup & reset -> Reset all settings and after that unlock bootloader
I was able to solve this by using a friend's laptop and installing the drivers and abd. Worked like a charm and I was able to flash magisk for root.
For anyone else having this issue, try another pc if you can. I'm guessing this was either an issue with adb on my machine or a problem with the device drivers.
bro do u find solutions for this
I found an actual fix for this problem. Basically I had to download Large Address Allocation Tool (LAA) which you can find online. I would link to it but I do not have the website handy.
I found this solution after soft bricking my phone by installing Oreo (I don't suggest using VPN to pretend you are in Canada. Just run the beta or wait for the US release).
Essentially, you just need to run this tool on your adb.exe. From what I understand, the issue is just that adb is not using enough RAM. I think you'll need to be running Windows 7 64bit with at least 4GB RAM. I hope this info can help someone else!

Hi friend,
I believe, you already have MI account and permission SMS from Xiaomi. If not, please read how to get bootloader unlock permission from Xiaomi over the net. If you have that permission, please make sure that you are using latest version of MI unlock tool.
Then log in with your MI username and password. Activate developper options in the phone, then USB debugging + OEM unlock in the developper options. Then go to fastboot and connect the phone. Check wheter the phone drivers are properly installed in Windows.
If everything is OK, then hit UNLOCK. If you have all of the above completed, then you should succeed.
If you want to flash another rom in the phone, you can make that without to unlock bootloader with an Xiaomi enginnering cable. Google is your friend

Hi, thks for help.. I dont have that "OEM unlock" option, dont know why...
This is what I get: "Current account is not bound to this device"
I've been trying for almost two weeks to unlock the bootloader on my Redmi Note 7 (Model M1901F7H) because I want to flash the official Global ROM (it has a carrier modified ROM) But Mi unlock REFUSES to recognize the phone when it's connected in fastboot mode.
I've searched the web for a solution and tried a dozen things, including following every single step on this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7/how-to/one-redmi-note-7-unlock-bootloader-t3890751
But I haven't been able to solve the Issue. The device is recognized by all the computers I've been using while plugged in file transfer mode, but none of them recognize the device while it's in fastboot.
Some of the things I've already done include:
Trying 3 different PCs (both AMD and intel)
Disabled signature driver enforcement
Trying USB 2.0 ports
Installing old versions of Mi Unlock
Installing Xiaomi Usb Drivers
Installing 15 seconds ADB drivers
Intalling Mi unlock directly to C://
Enabled OEM unlocking and USB debugging on the device
Linked my Mi Account to the device
Restarting the device and computer multiple times
Re installing drivers over and over again
I know this is the first and supposedly easiest step of the whole process, but I'm stuck and close to giving up (but I really don´t want to).
Can anybody please help me out?
Same here
connect it through a USB hub, it worked for me

A usb 2.0 hub did the trick for me, using a usb 3.0 only laptop. It did not work with my usual usb3 hub.

Hello,
sorry to hear that I'll try to help you but I'll need a screenshot shot of your device manager page (assuming you are using a windows PC). Make sure that you connect your phone in fastboot mode before taking the screenshot.
Maybe it's helpfull to install a VPN, in my case flexvpn from playstore, before starting unlock- process...
I solve with an old PC...but I wait for 270h to unlock...
thank you all for your comments, I don't know exactly what happened but Mi unlock recognized the device and asked me to wait for 33 hours to finish the unlocking process.

I don't know how but today Mi unlock recognized the device and asked me to wait 33 hours before unlocking.
This is my first time flashing a device and I'm feeling a bit nervous, if it's not much to ask, could you help me out with some questions? I would be very, very grateful
Can I wait 48 hours before attempting to unlock the bootloader again just to be sure? or it has to be exactly 33 hours?
I plan to flash the global RN7 rom found on en.miui.com/a-234.html to my device (Model M1901F7H), is this the correct one?
How can I lock the bootloader again after flashing this rom? I don't want to keep it unlocked
Do I need a custom recovery? I'd like to keep the stock one if possible
Is there a way to backup my current ROM? In case I need to issue a warranty claim

These stuffs seems quite tough and tense at first but its quite easy and safe if you understand what you are doing...and yes I'll answer them one by one
1)The wait period shown by the unlocker is the minimum time you would have to wait to unlock your bootloader so any time after that wait period is fine(But is a chance that even after the wait period the unlocker would give you some error if that happens PM me or quote me)
2)The device code name for Redmi note 7 is lavender so just flash the rom made for lavender I'll give the link to download the stable rom https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...files/xiaomi.eu/MIUI-STABLE-RELEASES/MIUIv10/
From the above link download the latest version for HMnote7 ,in my opinion European is better than the original one but best rom so far is mokee.
3)You can lock your bootloader using fastboot commands or by flashing the device with miui using Flash tools...but that is not necessary open bootloader is better
4)Yes you need a custom recovery and after flashing the rom from your link the custom recovery will be replaced by the one given in the rom(Don't flash that one! Use the one i gave you if you still want miui but if you like stock then go for mokee)
5)No need to backup it is available online and it can be flashed using flash tools also doing these things and keeping the bootloader unlocked won't void your warranty so there is nothing to loose warranty will be give as per your purchase invoice date! Also if you backup that rom using a custom recovery then it can be use as failsafe if you get into a bootloop or something..but that rom is not mandatory any roms bqckup would do just fine
If you still have doubts I'll be happy to clarify ?

Thank you very much for taking the time to answer all of my questions! You've been very helpful.
I've been thinking about what you wrote but I think I wanna install the official global ROM via Mi Flash. If I select the "clear all and lock" do I risk bricking my device? That's my main concern.
I didn't mention it earlier, but the only reason I want to unlock the Bootloader is so I can flash the official global Rom, (my carrier takes ages to update the rom they install, and it's also full of bloatware) this is my main phone (less than a month old), and while I understand that keeping the bootloader open and using custom ROMS could enhance my user experience, for the time being I want to keep things simple and safe. Maybe in the near future I'll start tinkering with custom rom and recoveries.
Thank you everyone for your suggestions! I don't know exactly what did the trick, but I was able to unlock the bootloader and flash a global ROM. I've encountered some issues with it but that's another topic.
Once again, thank you all!

I have finally understood the problem. What you need to do is not install the ADB Drivers separately, but you need to check for the unknown Android device that is shown under the USB devices when you connect the device (via USB port).
You have to update that driver with the ADB Drivers.
That will only solve the problem of the fastboot detection

Can you give detailed instructions on how to "update that driver with the ADB Drivers"? After installing the 15 secs ADB drivers and Xiaomi drivers, my Note 7 is still being recognized as an "Android" device with the yellow caution sign.
