Hi everyone, i have already unlocked the bootloader by unofficial method.(its snapdragon version) but today got permissions from xiaomi to unlock it.
So, i want to unlock it by official method. How can i do it???because it is already unlocked
flash the MIUI ROM and it will again lock the bootloader. Then you can go with official unlock
Is it not necessary to replace emmc files in image folder?

I got my kenzo yesterday and was surprised because it's already unlocked. My problem now is how to flash TWRP, since there is 2 methods which involves a bootloader unlocked via the official/unofficial method. I don't want to install official MIUI because it will re-lock the BL, plus what I want is a AOSP/CM based custom ROM. Please help!
**I got this Note 3 from an online retailer. They said their supplier is the one who unlocked the device. The retailer doesn't know if it is unlocked officially or by the unofficial method.
Hey guys, i just bought my phone today and i want to unlock the BL, root and install twrp before i start installing my stuffs. I'm running the stable 8.1.1.0 miui . Could you guys please help me out? TIA
You need to apply for official unlock here http://en.miui.com/unlock/ After you get permission you can use unlocker tool to unlock bootloader. Than you can flash TWRP recovery and and Supersu.zip via TWRP. Unlock permission can take some time 2 to 3 days to 1 week. There is also unofficial unlock but i suggest you to go for official unlock. Please refer to the link given below.

Can u elaborate bro? What do mean by directly?
Just sign in with same account you have unlocked previously
Use mi flash to unlock, it will take 10 to 15 seconds to unlock your bootloader
Sovled: officilly unlocked again with new mi account
Can I check if it is bootloader unlocked officially or unofficialy way?
First of all: apply for BL unlock, and wait for your permission to be accepted, after that I suggest flashing the latest Dev version of MIUI in MiFlashwith the option of clean & re-lock, and finally unlocking officially
Hello!
I recently bought the 8" M5 without realising the hoops I'd have to jump through to unlock the bootloader.
After getting lucky and being able to downgrade to FW163 I have successfully unlocked the bootloader and I've been running a treble rom. Yesterday I wanted to try out an OpenKirin rom, so I flashed the stock EMUI 8 firmware in order to then flash the OpenKirin rom.
After flashing stock I realised my bootloader was relocked - not a big issue as I still had the unlock code and I was still on FW163.
My question is - if I upgrade to EMUI 9 ota will this relock my bootloader the same as manually flashing 163 did, and if so, will I still be able to unlock on higher FW versions since I already have the unlock code? As far as I'm aware the issue we were faced with was actually obtaining the unlock code after official support ended, so in theory now that I have the code I should be able to unlock on any firmware, right?
Thanks!

Theoritically said, yes, because the xloader have those kind of hexes that stay the same even after updating the firmware and the xloader and as additional info, I'm now on Omnirom for EMUI 9 vendor from Openkirin team and I can download the EMUI from eRecovery without getting my bootloader locked
