Once again stuck at 50% unable to verify device (current account is different from account info on the device). TBH unlocking bootloader in Xaiomi devices sucks. in previous devices like redmi 3s/pime the only fix to overcome this 50% stuck issue was to flash a fastboot Chinese developer rom but in case of Redmi note 4 you won't even get a Chinese fastboot rom for SD variant and it sucks

[Discontinued] Unofficial Bootloader Unlock Method for Hydrogen[32GB]

hello,
first of all i recommend the advanced users to try this method first to see if they succeeds or not if they then, cheers for the new unofficial bootloader unlocking method. here i will provide steps to do:-
Things you need:
- fastboot rom MiUi 8 8.2 will work
-the modified bootloader file
-helpful quick answers
ok so here we begin
PREREQUISITE
-adb and fastboot setup already on your pc
-usb debugging and oem unlocking must be enabled(from developer options)
-mi flash tool ~>Get older version from here (use 20160401)
-driver signature off
step 1
Enable USB debugging and connect device to pc,
now open fastboot and adb folder and there open cmd and type
Code:
adb devices
step 2
you can recognize the device connected to pc
now reboot device to edl mode
Code:
boot to edl by button combination or fastboot command
you can see your phone is in edl(emergancy download mode)
step 3
extract the fastboot file, and goto extracted_folder/images
there you can find a file named emmc_appsboot.mbn
replace with the downloaded emmc file(from begining of post)
step 4
open mi flash tool and connect phone via usb and click on refresh you can seee a COM port with a number on display,
now browse and load the fastboot rom.
step 5
(in this step i'll be specific as same as redmi note 3 bootloader unlocking method is)
click on advanced and there
and choose these
Browse to flash_all.bat in Fastboot rom folder at First option ,
Third option to prog_emmc_firehose_8976_ddr.mbn ,
then last two options browse to rawprogram0.xml and patch0.xml
step 6
after selecting files in advanced ,go back and click on refresh
step 7
now flash the fastboot file as soon flashing completes remove cable and keep holding fastoot combination keys
now you are booted into fastboot
step 8
the fun part(i guess)
goto adb and fastboot folder and open cmd there'
and type
Code:
fastboot devices
to check if device detected or not
now type
Code:
fastboot oem unlock-go
now it should show
Code:
...
OKAY FINISHED
like this
step 9
now if you succeeded step 8 completely
i'd suggest you to check if bootloader is unlocked or not
type
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
if that shows as
Code:
<bootloader> Device Unlocked:true
then Congratulations.. you successfully unlocked bootloader without permission from xiaomi
now for the people who are trying do please inform if this method worked or not
(will be helpful to me for re edit post with ease steps)
credits to my whatsapp friend who given me required files lol :highfive:
AGAIN please do reply, if this method works or not if worked then cheers :victory:

This is the second time I see this Note 3 unlocking stuff posted here...
Since when adb reboot edl works for MI Max? I'll tell you... since never...
Have you tried this procedure yourself? I bet you haven't...
So don't post something so risky without confirming it working personally, please...
I will strongly advice everyone even considering this!!!

Btw, i wanted to ask has anyone tested this method yet, ?

The method is much too dangerous to test, the modified bootloader file depends on android version and may brick your phone - read more in RN3 thread.
You should not have even posted such a method without personally testing it - we, as in users, are not guinea pigs.

Actually Mi flash tool has the option for advanced .. if you had the older version .. till now i havent updated to latest version yet, also if you may read above post i told that i currently dont have my max now, and i aint gonna get it in next 1 or 2 years, my brother took it and now he is at his hostel...
I ll link the old miflash tool, and the dangereous thing is only one soft brick(stuck at logo) and bootloop, I have experienced some that bootloaders doesnt vary device by device...
So probability is to get a stuck on logo or get a bootloop its simple that you just load the original fastboot firmware and flash, that reverts back to normal state, for now,
I'm just trying to help, if people dont like it then I will defineatly leave.

I didnt took all things from rn3 bl unlocking page, i just took method of flashing. And the bootloader file thats taken from officially unlocked bootloade, and i just told if previous post i dont hav max right now, so i wish if someone tried this and if he succeeds.. then its very good news for all locked bl users..
But i think none is not even trying

Definititely some procedures must be changed and adapted to mi max. Experimented developers has portion of truth but some users can`t get answer to unlock devices and me personally if my bootloader was locked don`t want have a device wich can`t be real owner.
Opennig file emmc... remember that an old trick from kitkat to unlock with sucess my old xperia z. some looks be based on the principle to replace original values in the clusters just for zeros. I uploaded two orginal and unlocker emmc files to consider this but of course I can`t confirm cause my bootloader is unlocked.

Some ideas aloud.
There are differences between locked and the official unlocked bootloader (please, see in the hex-editor the end of both files). It's a right idea for replace the locked bootloader (emmc_aboot) to official unlocked emmc_appsboot. The official unlocked emmc_appsboot we can get by dump of the partition in official unlocked device and this binary file will be have the .img extension (uncompressed binary file).
For checking we should check two binary files in the hex-editor: emmc_appsboot.mbn from ROM for fastboot flash and modified bootloader file from author. But files with .mbn extension should be uncompressed.
Sorry, but I don't know as uncompress the .mbn file.

Yeah i checked in hex, i guess its the some kinda lock codes with it so they got removed(i m noob in hex ' )
As far as .. result will be known by practically

Maybe developers can make something similar to safestrap, it was a great project based on bootstrap (now abandoned) that works with a modified recovery that allows install almost any rom on bootloader unlocked (and unlockable cause company never want to unlock it at least till the time I used) on my old galaxy note 3 at&t. This app created a second slot and more directly to install roms.

I thought someone will try it

This is far too risky to try

[MI A2/MI 6X] How to flash without edl Authentication and get latest pie beta cn

Salve! As you may know, Xiaomi enabled ARB (Anti-Roll Back) for Mi 6X starting with MIUI 10. It means that if you try to downgrade from MIUI 10 to MIUI 9, your device will enter in a brick EDL state and the only way to recover it is to send it to Xiaomi or flash it using MiFlash and an Authorized Account. Now if you are like me and have a locked bootloader in a converted a2 to 6x wayne then the only way is testpoint and even if your device has an unlocked bootloader doing fastboot oem edl is very unlikely to work
Now, as I read here on XDA, there are some people who managed to brick their device by triggering the ARB when they converted the Mi A2 to Mi 6X to test MIUI. So if you flashed MIUI 10 and didn't deleted firmware-update from the .zip file, you triggered the ARB. If you tried to flash MIUI 9 or stock Mi A2 ROM, you managed to brick your device and it stays in an EDL state (Qualcomm 9008). You SIMPLY CANNOT rollback to Android One yet until they introduce ARB to that device too but you can revive your device very easy with test point but no need for Mi Authorized Account. Sorry it has to be this way but this is the only way took me about 8 times to try and finally someone showed me this file which helped
https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1wAqlpmxMdZpibzPBuyBEwOY9ggcifAdd - This has everything include including the xiaomiflash no patched files are required as they have already been modified to bypass edl authentication i would also turn your wifi off whilst flashing this as thats what worked for me..weird eh?
Credits go to Sunchai - Admin of Mi Max Thailand for creating this amazing bypass

https://ibb.co/fYYmq0P
https://ibb.co/rd81JfK
These are screenshots of everything working so yeah , also if you are a2 user converted when you install the pie beta via the older beta version enhance lowlight photo automatically is fixed

Today i flashed global rom in my redmi note 7(lavender) cn. But i made a mistake. I select clean all and lock. When i tried to boot it shows 'this miui version cannot be installed in this device'. But I removed mi account from my phone. That's why i can't unlock the bootloader. Then i opened the backpart and tried to do edl flash with mi flash tool. But it showed ' cannot receive hello packet'. Then i tried to flash with Q_loader. But it fails. Now what can i do. Please help

Lol
I hv the greatest solution for this shi..t
Just go to fast boot mode by pressing volume down and power.
And
Open mi bootloader unlock tool in pc
And simply unlock ur bootloader normally
This will unlock ur bootloader again
And do whatever uh want
Flash rom again but this tym select only clean all
Device will boot normally
Thats it
This trick worked for meh..

I don't have any mi account in my device. How can I unlock the bootloader?

Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5G - Phone currently stuck in Mi-Recovery loop

Hi everyone,
I've been trying to prep my phone in readiness to flash a custom rom and got this far:
Ensured latest firmware is installed
Unlock bootloader
ADB and Fastboot prep
Flash and boot twrp-3.5.2-andromeda.img
Full backup taken in TWRP
However, whist trying to use ADB sideload to move the amaneded vbmeta.img file onto my phone it glitched out. Now my phone will go into Fastboot (when pressing 'volume down' button and 'power' button), or if I don't intervene the Mi-Recovery 3.0 screen.
When in Fastboot the command "adb device" on my PC in command prompt no longer works:
Before:
List of devices attached
7586a90b device
After:
List of devices attached
So I can't flash anything to it via ADB.
If I choose reboot in Mi-Recovery 3.0 the phone restarts and I just get stuck in a loop.
Can anyone provide some advice on what I can do next to try and recover my device, please?
Cheers,
fitzy-boy

Hi sorry to bother you but its years since i have been on here and not even sure if im posting in the right place so let me apologise just in case, i have a similar problem my phone glitched Mi Mix 3 5g, and i had to do a factory reset then came the moment when it asked to activate this device with password could not remember password went into Mi Account and changed password no luck tried this 3 times with no luck, then someone told me to delete the Mi account and start again which i did and to be honest this has massively complicated the issue, i got in touch with Xiaomi and told them what had happened sent them imei number proof of purchase, and photos of activation screen , and to be honest its like talking to a brick wall all they keep telling me is change the password on the Mi account done it numerous times to no avail ,but my new account is not associated with this phone its the deleted account that is associated with this i would be most grateful for any advice as this phone is in immaculate condition thanks in advance....
