Official Unlock not working - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

Hi. So I have REDMI NOTE 3 SD. I got permission to unlock officially. However the Mi unlock tool is giving error of could not verify device.
I'm on Global Stable rom 7.2.3.
I'm not able to go to China Stable ot Dev rom through updater app. It gives error that could not verify package.
Please help as to how to unlock the bootloader officially even though I have permission.

Welcome to the club. You are not the only one with this issue. Give it some time (maybe a week or two) and try again.

Flash China Stable through Mi Flash then use Updater app to update to China Developer from China stable. Then unlock.
You can't flash China Developer from Global stable using Updater app.

I remember RN3 giving me problems when I tried to go from Global Stable to China Dev as well. Global Stable to Global Dev worked perfectly though.

I managed to unlock by going from global stable to global dev.

you cant go from Global stable to China dev, first you have to flash china stable through flash tool than
download and install china dev rom zip via updater app. it'll work..

Update your stock ROM...had the same issue..the update helped with solving my problem (50℅ couldn't verify device error)

pls post here with your details.

Had the unlock stuck at 50% too - worked after going to Dev version. I'm on Global but I think China Dev will also work.

Flash Global Stable ROM using edl mode.
Sent from my kenzo using XDA-Developers mobile app
I had 7.1.99.99 on mine, which is also a vendor ROM. Managed to install Global Stable 7.2.1.8, then got an OTA update to 7.2.3.0, but I can't switch to Global Dev, nor to China Stable or China Dev.
I also unlocked the bootloader when I installed 7.1.8.0, but now it seems to be locked again. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

You cant flash China Dev/Stable because they are different from global stable...you could flash from global stable to global dev and vice versa...but make sure take backup and then factory reset and then flash the rom..Do at your own risk you can dload from http://en.miui.com/download-301.html make sure dload correct version
I don't see why I wouldn't be able. Still, I can't flash the global dev version, either. Why would that be?
How do I flash using edl mode?
I installed adb and turned on USB debugging.
I ran the adb reboot edl and my phone reset and a driver was installed. I feel like I am on the right track, but I don't know what the next step is.

How to flash Global Developer ROM in Indian RED MI Note 3?

dear all.
I have Indian Redmi Note 3 ( Snapdragon version, 3 gb 32GB), I am on stock MIUI Global StableVersion 7.2.5.0(LHOMIDA) . I want to flash Global Developer ROM on this .
I have a few queries
Q.1- Can I directly flash global developer ROM through Updater App without any boot loader unlocked issue or should I unlock the boot loader first?
Q.2 How can I flash Chinese ROM? The reason behind this is that Chinese version supports CDMA data facility which is missing in my global stable version at present I am using TATA cdma SIM in SIM slot 1, wherein voice call and sms works without any problem but data is not working probably because MEID is missing in global ROM ,so i guess that Chinese ROM will solve this issue. )
kindly help
warm regards
ankjain
With regards to your first query..You should go with the official way of unlocking bootloader thought it takes time ..some people who did the unofficial unlocking method ended up bricking their phones..I unlocked it officially then flashed twrp and flashed global dev rom
@vish9180- thanks mate. Is it necessary to unlock it?
Happy to help..It is...I didn't want to run the risk of bricking it like the other guys...so I went the official route...took me 4 days ..since I'm some what active on miui forum..participate in miui forum and they'll clear your unlock request faster.

In New Zealand country code not listed on unlock site.

Hi I'm wanting to unlock my Kenzo but unfortunately New Zealand is not listed on the Miui unlock site around this? I really want to install an aosp ROM.
Thanks

It's been so long since I unlocked my kenzo, but I don't remember it asking me for a region. I'm in NZ too.
From memory, I followed this page:
xiaomitips.com/download/mi-flash-unlock-tool
I set my phone number to the full +642xxxxxxxxxx.
The main difficulty for me was that even though I got permission, I had to flash the global development ROM version, as the global stable ROM got the 50% verification problem.

Hi thanks for your reply, on the unlock site it does not list nz and it needs to send an sms verification code.
i have a friend in aussie who let me use there number, i have been given acceptance to unlock but not i get stuck at 50% cannot verify device, what steps do i need to take to get past this error?
To fix 50 % stuck or verification problem. First flash global beta or dev rom via miflash tool in edl mode than umlock with mi flash tool. Or wait for 4 - 5 days after unlock code acceptance if u tried to unlock on reinstalled stable rom

It takes a week or two until it lets you unlock after getting permission. Also you need to be on developer ROM AFAIK to unlock.
There are several guides on unofficial unlocking, you should give it a try in case you are impatient.

Correct, you have to have the development ROM, and wait a week after getting approval.
Apparently it takes that long to get to their servers.
If you try to use the updater app on MIUI to flash a developer ROM when you have the global ROM, it will tell you that it can't verify the update.
Most people will tell you to use edl mode to flash developer ROM, which will work.
I solved this on my phone ; I managed to use the inbuilt updater to successfully flash global developer 6.8.18, and from there unlock.
No other version would flash.
Thank you for all your replies. I have sorted it moe based on your tips.

Mido can't update MIUI

I have Mido SD 32/3GB on MIUI 8.2.10.0.0.
When I check for updates in Updater app it gives me no update,and on MI site download page for Redmi Note 4X global there are 8.5.4.0 version. I have manualy downloaded 8.5.4.0 update and put it in internal and external memory and tryed "choose update package" option.Nothing,MIUI says "can't verify update.current version is illegal,only allowed to flash stable version".I have tried MIUI 9 7.8.24...same thing. The fone is all stock.But the bootloader is factory unlocked.
Anybody has solution??? Thanks.

Hey man, you have a Fake/tampered Rom
Take a look at this:
http://en.miui.com/thread-392159-1-1.html
For stable rom , needed about 3 decimal points. Not more than that
You need to use MIFLASH tool to flash the original rom. Make sure to unlock bootloader first (i think its already unlock thou).
Flashing guide:
http://en.miui.com/thread-565784-1-1.html
Thanks,I was thinking about using MIFLASH.
Yes, bootloader is (factory ??? ) unlocked.I buy it like that.
(why would seler temper with ROM? my Mido is chinese 2016101 and I live in Serbia/East Europe.couldn,t they just flash Global rom.I buy from them Redmi 4a for my wife,and it was OK.Updated fine to latest ROM.)
Didn't know about 3 decimal rom rule.

Xiaomi have no official retail stores yet (except at India thou) so they let those f*ck up resellers to buy their phones and do whatever they want to sell it.
If the reseller bought those phones directly from China with chinese miui rom , tendency it will modified to english with playstore installed.
Sorry for that lol ,
Now try miflash if it works :fingers-crossed:
MIFLASH did the trick. I'm now on 8.5.4.0.

To flash an official ROM (stable or developer, chinese or global) over an unofficial one, you need an unlock bootloader and follow this guide.
If you are using an unofficial ROM, like those fake MIUI ROMs (bad) or Xiaomi.eu ROMs (better than official), you have already an unlocked bootloader.

The only way I know is testpoint.
There is now global beta version. I flashed from global stable to global beta through system update and now I successfully bind phone, no more 86006 error. Just need to wait 15 days to unlock it.
You can find the rom link on miui forum of Redmi 5 Plus

Sorry to hear that, I think I saw some posts in MIUI forum saying that xiaomi indonesia dont let their users unlock bootloader, not sure whether its true or not.
Maybe u can try test point method but check tutorials on youtube or miui forum before doing that
