cant unlock bootloader - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Hey there,
so my problem is, that I just cant unlock my bootloader anymore.
I dont know what to do.
The phone just shows the xiamoi logo for one second and then black screen.
Only fastboot mode does work.
Cmd says remote: oem unlock is not allowed. YES I know that I havent activated developer settings but I cant, because I wiped the system and cant do anything. And how to flash stock rom, when I havent got bootloader permissions.
Qfil and so on doestn work either.
Please respond asap.

heya
only you need to change the partition, ONLY WORK IF YOU DONT ERASE THE 2 SYSTEM PARTITIONS (system_a and system_b), to make that you need to follow instructions:
1.- open CMD in platform tools
2.- in CMD type Fastboot getvar current-slot
3(1).-if the CMD say current-slot:_a you need to type Fastboot set_active b
3(2).-if the CMD say current-slot:_b you need to type Fastboot set_active a
4.- reboot the phone typing fastboot reboot, and Ready!!!

Did you try Mi unlock?
http://en.miui.com/unlock/
You must create a mi account and need to use a chinese proxy to validate registration

I solved it myself. As mentioned I had no OS installed so there was no way to activate developer settings. I couldtn enter edl mode via fastboot so I used testpoint to solve my problem. I then flashed it via Miflash and the phone works now fine :good:

Just go on youtube and search for testpoint xiamoi mi a1, I did the same and it worked for me.
Good luck

If you can access Fastboot. THIS WILL ERASE ALL OF YOUR DATA
1. Enter Fastboot Mode > Make sure drivers are installed correctly
2. Enter "fastboot oem edl" > > Ignore Error > Your phone notification led should now blink.
3. Use MiFlash to flash the fastboot ROM.

Is there a way you could be more specific on what you do please? I don't understand what do you have to do after the testpoint, how do you use miflash to reflash the rom? Please

When your phone is in testmode you are able to flash stock firmware via Miflash. Download the stock firmware in the internet just google it.
You have to install Miflash. Open it connect phone in fastboot (testpoint). Then select the downloaded firmware in Miflash and flash it.
There are many videos on youtube how to flash with miflash.

Stuck in Bootloop

US996 Unlocked, stock rom. I was in XDA Forums and saw there were app updates, one being Play Store. I updated. When I tried to get into Play Store, the message "this version of play store is incompatible with your device, go to settings and disable app update (or something like that). I tried but the app was not listed in settings. I tried to reboot and now the phone bootloops. All I can get is the warning that the software cannot be checked for corruption and then a quick display of the LG logo, then screen off, and then LG logo again and then warning screen, etc. If I try to reboot into recovery I get the Factory data reset screens and I answer both "yes" and the phone goes into adb mode.. From adb mode I can fastboot reboot, which puts me back into the above loop, or fastboot bootloader, which merely returns me to the adb screen. What can I do now?
Maybe try relocking the bootloader. I am pretty sure (someone correct me if I am wrong) that that pop-up of the "cannot check for corruption" usually only shows when the bootloader is unlocked.

Try entering
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
into Fastboot on your computer to see if it says it is unlocked when in fastboot mode.

I get "FAILED (remote: unknown command)"
Do you have fastboot installed on your computer? (Something you would have had to have intentionally installed) If not google Minimal Fastboot /ADB and install it, enter the supposed ADB screen you are talking about and see if it makes contact with your phone.

I have the fastboot on the PC that I used to unlock the bootloader.. I enter fastboot on the PC via the administrative command prompt. With the phone in the fastboot mode, I type "fastboot devices" on the PC and get a proper response (LGUS996ab**** fastboot). If I enter ""fastboot reboot" I get the bootloop. If I enter "fastboot bootloader" I wind up in Fastboot Mode on the phone again. I was hoping there was a "fastboot recovery" command but there doesn't seem to be. I don't know what to do next. I am not all that familiar with what can be done from fastboot. My only experience with it was when I unlocked the phone. I am desperate!
Okay, so if you do not have TWRP installed on your phone, then I don't know if you can save your data. You can try to
Code:
fastboot erase cache
and see if it helps, or if not and just reset the device fastboot oem lock I think. Maybe ask around in the unlocking help threads or perhaps someone with more knowledge will chime in. If none of this works, then there are some instructions on how to get your phone back to stock in the News and Guides section.
EDIT: Maybe try the power+volume down. It may work? I have tried it and never got it to successfully work. But you can try it.

Thanks for your help. I DO have TWRP installed and have used it often for backups. But now the only way I know to TRY to get to it is by the power/vol down until LG logo, then release/repress power button sequence but this just gets me into fastboot mode. II have some recent backups saved on my micro SD card - is there any way to flash one of them through fastboot if I load one onto the PC?
Yeah. My bad. Okay, so how I get into TWRP is through the EasyRecowvery.
Go ahead and download it from Git-Hub (1.3b3).
Now extract it and run the cmd program. Enter 5. which is extras and stuff and then enter 5 again in the sub menu which will let you boot into recovery. When you are in recovery, and plugged into your computer, you should be able to either flash or drag and drop like a flash drive on the the phone. Hope that helps a little bit.

Since you are only rebooting into recovery and not flashing anything it might. If not, it will just fail and not harm anything. Last thing to try is the
Code:
adb reboot recovery
which is the only thing I can think of and I think you already tried it. Otherwise you will need to just go stock.

Fine i ll type down steps in max detail for you.
Go to developer options, enable usb debugging and oem unlock.
download platform-tools by google. (adb)
Extract it. Say at C:\
Now install drivers for your phone
open cmd and navigate to the folder where you extracted platform tools. Follow the code.
Enable usb debugging from developer options
[/LIST]
Code:
cd C:\platform-tools
adb devices
a device and some number should show up with an online status
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
again, a device and number should show
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot reboot
if it says success,bootloader is unlocked.
download a recovery.img specific to your phone. rename it to say twrp.img and place it in the same folder as platform tools.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot twrp.img
the recovery will boot. this is a temporary boot and will wipe off on a reboot. You can also flash the recovery using fastboot flash command.

Z17S (NX595J) Unlock Bootloader & TWRP

Hi, I'm new to this phone. Just got it 1 week ago. I tried to find any related information on the bootloader unlock and custom recovery, but it is very limited. I think maybe this phone is not well known. I would appreciate if someone can provide me the way to unlock bootloader, flash TWRP and roots. I can't live without magisk and viper4android. Thanks.
Here ya go,
1. Download and install minimal fastboot adb
2.Download TWRP rename it Recovery and move it to minimal fastboot adb folder
3. Unlock bootloader, in fastboot enter the following code : fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX595J
4. then also in fastboot: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
5. you may need to format data in TWRP to get it to boot up !
Enjoy your new life !
thanks

Hi, I've tried numerous timed and it always won't pick up the command of unlocking bootloader. It always stay in the fastboot menu. I've toggled the 'OEM Unlock' function in the developer setting, as well as the USB debugging. Any idea why the device won't pick up that command?
Is it changing to unlock after you enter the command?
If so flash twrp then boot into recovery ...

I'm having the problem. Unlock is not sticking to unlock. The unlock works and the flash works but as soon as you try and reboot into recovery it hangs at a blank screen no twrp. Console says waiting for device and stuck. next time I go into bootloader it says locked. The count is 3 for unlock count is there a limit? 7-6-18 Nubia Z17 NX591J WIn 10.

I don't understand? Appears not locked? It is locked. Now I remember when I flashed my Star N997 the developer said that there is a unlock bit that has to be turned on in the process of unlocking. I think this may be the case here since it unlocks until a reboot. I am deep concerned that after a unlock count of 3 the phone will not boot anymore. Do you know anything about these things? Another thought is does the USB C need different drivers and should it be plugged into a USB 3.0 outlet?
TWRP will flash only when it's unlocked so even if it's saying it's locked go by what you can do with TWRP

pls. let me know...
I'm having problems unlocking the bootloader. Has anyone got the proper TWRP for this phone? I can't find it. The one I have says FAILED (remote: Requested download size is more than max allowed). Thanks
hello links no longer works. Someone could give me back the TWRP and minimalb fastboot adb
For anyone's information, TWRP will not boot in recovery while the phone is being charged. Unplug first. You will just get a black screen.

Can you use fastboot (volume down+power)? If you don't have Android SDK, then install Minimal ADB and Fastboot, open cmd in that directory and type "fastboot device" (or "fastboot devices"?) while phone is connected via USB in fastboot mode. If it displays your phone's serial number, then you can use fastboot. If it doesn't show you anything, then I think wiping your phone in recovery or performing a clean flash through Mi Flash is the only way. However, if you can use fastboot, then the next step would be booting into TWRP... but we'll get to that once you confirm if it's working or not.

Hi,
i have checked by typing command---fastboot reboot and my phone reboots and hangs at android one screen so that means i can use fastboot but strangely didnt see in fastboot devices but i found output for fastboot oem device-info where device unlocked shows false and other status.
If this is enough for using fastboot to boot into TWRP?

Actually bad news is that to boot into TWRP you need to unlock your bootloader first (fastboot oem unlock), but to do that I think you need to have enabled "OEM unlocking" in developer settings (though strangely I am unlocked, but for me this option is disabled). Try unlocking anyway. If it doesn't work, then I would follow this guide to clean flash official firmware with Mi Flash Tool. Be warned, you will lose all your data if you manage to unlock your device.

Hi,
Is that mean i will still loose all data even if i unlock bootloader?
And i am unable to unlock bootloader by command. So only option i have now to do factoryreset/wipe data?
So after factory reset again i need to flash the ROM ? Because if again i need to flash ROM, i understand the prerequisite is Bootloader unlock which will create issue again.
Please suggest.

No, if you wipe your phone through recovery you won't need to flash anything. It just deletes all your stuff without touching the system.

I'm in the same boat. Unable to access developer options as phone won't boot and its stuck at the android one logo.
Fastboot oem unlock gives error Flashing Unlock is not allowed.
Is there anyway around this?
I'm still stuck with my Mi A2. I didn't enable OEM unlock or USB debugging and now i'm stuck on android one logo with only option is to boot into fast-boot mode. All commands and tools i try I get error stating unlock is not allowed in Lock State.
I bit the bullet and ordered an EDL cable so we'll see if i get anywhere with that. I've read that newer Xiaomi devices wont work with EDL cable and only option is to use the test point method....not sure how accurate that is but guess i'll find out whenever the cable gets here.

You can try fastboot oem edl
To put the phone in EDL mode without specific cable
However why not wipe data from the recovery?
Just use fastboot reboot recovery

Thanks for the suggestions. I know when I ran fastboot oem edl previously I get message stating device already locked.
If i do fastboot reboot recovery i got an error ..i believe not allowed but will have to check later tonight.

If you see a triangle, you are in recovery mode
You need to press a button combination to see options, Search on Google for that

[UPDATED] Mi A1 Not detected in fastboot.

Trying to unlock my Stock Mi A1.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
: Phone reboots in fastboot mode/bootloader.
Code:
fastboot reboot
: Waiting for any device.
Code:
Fastboot devices
: Returns blank
I have installed Xiaomi adb drivers
I have installed quallcom drivers.
still nothing happens.
allow bootloader oem unlock option is enabled in dev settings.
What am I doing wrong?
Update: after some fiddling, I noticed that in Windows update there was an update to android drivers in other updates section. Did that and phone showed up in the fastboot. But its still hit and miss. Sometimes it shows up. Sometimes it drops connection and I have to disconnect the cable and reconnect to get it back. But overall its working out.

The bove link does not answer my question in any way. My issue was phone not showing up at all in fastboot. The above mentioned link is a general guide to unlocking. Not troubleshooting.
Anyways I got the issue solved by doing a driver update using Windows update.
I understood you wanted to unlock the bootloader.
to enter fastboot mode power+volume down button.
.\adb reboot fastboot
.\fastboot reboot recovery
