Hi all:
I came to this forum in search for help with mi xiaomi redmi 3 pro.
I bought this phone a few weeks ago, and so far i'm really very happy with it, but unfortunately the rom installed has not my language completely, some parts are in PT/BR and aome in english.
So I would like to install the EU rom that has the full portuguese package included.I have already taken the first steps.Asked to xiaomi permission to unlock bootloader, which was already granted, but this step is my firs problem.I follwoed all the instructions connected the phone in FASTBOOT mode to the PC but whenever it reaches the 50% I get a message saying: "couldn't verify device-not connected to MI phone.try again"
Someone told that this is because I don't have the CHINA DEV installed, and this is my 2nd problem.I have downloaded the last china developer to my phone, I go to config-update-choose update package then I select the downloaded version, but then again I get the message error : can't verify update !!!
And this is it, i'm really blocked !! what to do ?? do I have to root my phone using something like KingoRoot and lose my warranty ??
PLease help me.
Modified bootloader
Try this modified bootloader and then flash xiaomi.eu ROM
sSo if I understood it right I have to do this:
Installation :
1. Unrooted device
- download file ido-TWRP-3.0.2.0-miflash.zip
- extract and flash using miflash in download mode
this will also install official TWRP 3.0.2.0 to the device
and next step I have to instal the xiaomi.eu rom. right ??
Ok after reading a lot I found that to do that I need a PC with a 64 bit windows (mine is 32 )
Besides that for any strange reason I can't onstall the drivers !!!

hello i have redmi note 3 pro with snapdragon, i have recive today the message for unlock the bootloader..i connect the phone on my pc with fastboot but stack on 50% and say current account is different from the account info on the device , how to fix this? please HELLPPP ME. same think now this moment, i try to update to latest firmware from mi pc suite ( from phone stucks on 0%) and at 50% stuck with another program...
Same problem.
I realize this sounds unhelpful, but just stop trying for 2 days, repeated attempts make the server to think that you're a bot or something. I left mine alone for 2 days and on the third day, it unlocked. In fact, I unlocked it just about half an hour ago.
Installing the beta developer ROM solved this problem for me.

I don't think it should be a problem there, steps are simple:
- First, install a dev MIUI ROM 6.x.x (if possible, chinese one, which comes in both chinese and english) through MiFlash
- Boot the phone in this dev ROM and make sure you login your MiAccount, the same one you used to ask for unlocking bootloader permissions
- Make sure you have both ADB and OEM unlock activated on Developer Options
- Once you make sure you have that account logged in, just follow the steps in the MiUnlocker program (fastboot, connect, etc)
It should do the trick, if you still have some kind of problem, do the typical tricks, try to use another cable, connect through a 2.0 USB port....

Same problem with global stable ROM and flash to Global dev ROM solve the problem for me
I had this today i was on global beta. What i did was turn my phone on goto to mi account and ensure my device was activated on find my device. Logged into mi unlock tool with my phone number eg +447509##### and opened windows firewall to the unlock program. Took 10+ attempts then worked. I think the key to my problem was my phone had to receive the validation sms for my miui account before proceeding
Hey guys,
I got my RN3 a month ago and since last 2 weeks i am trying to unlock the bootloader using the official method.
I had asked MI for permission and I got it within 3 days. Now since 2 week I am trying to unlock the bootloader but I keep getting the error on MIUnlock "Couldn't verify Device".
I am using the latest MIUnlock version.
I have searched extensively for a solution to the problem but unfortunately all the work arounds are not working for me.
I have tried it on the stock ROM that the phone came with.
The latest stable global ROM from MI V7.3.7.0. MIUI7
The beta global ROM from MI MIUI8
Same error everywhere. The process stops at 50%.
I am skeptical to try the unofficial method since it could brick my phone. But may go through with it if there is no other option.
Basically I want to root the phone and flash a CM13 ROM.
Please help me out
Thanks
Mine had said the same error failed at 50% - mine shipped with miui V7.3.6.0 (some vendor firmware I guess), here is what I did to fix it.
I have the redmi note 3 pro so this will apply only for the kenzo (snapdragon version)- I am not familiar with the mediatek one.
1. Install Xiao Mi Flash (beta) , then boot the phone into fast boot mode (from power off state - hold vol down + power until you see it say fast boot.), in Mi Flash at the bottom select clean all
2. extract the kenzo "fast boot" firmware
http://en.miui.com/a-234.html (find the firmware in the list)
IE:
Redmi Note 3 Qualcomm Latest Global Stable Version Fastboot
(kenzo_global_images_V7.3.7.0.LHOMIDD_20160523.0000.23_5.1_global)
3. Select the extracted firmware folder in the Mi Flash program, hook the phone up and you should see it in the list, then click flash to flash it.. (this will erase all data)
after it finishes let it boot up it might take 10-15 minutes, then you can try to unlock it again, at this point it should pass now verification and unlock officially. - after success let it reboot again and it might take another 10-15 minutes to finish up.
(this is because it clears the phone data so it has to re-optimize all the apps).
do at own risk it worked for me but due to all the various methods the vendors use to flash this phone who knows if it will work for everyone...

hello,
i am not able to use miflash(beta) due to some qualcomm driver error because i am on 32 bit system. Instead i am using miflash 2015 10.28.0 which have 3 options like flash all, flash all except storage ,flash all except data and storage.which one to choose?
look at the image i have attached for your reference
first I suggest installing the Mi PC Suite (just to get the correct drivers installed), then try XiaoMiFlash again
http://en.miui.com/thread-92720-1-1.html
here is the Xiao Mi Flash I used.
http://en.miui.com/thread-281979-1-1.html
MiFlashSetup-Beta.zip (29.53 MB, Downloads: 96818)
I had to link my phone first before the Unlock tool would work. So login into you Mi Account on the phone first.
I had the same problem because i hadnt installed the miui dev rom yet..
the only solution is flashing DEV ROM
it worked for me
Hi guys,
yesterday I received my Note 3 Pro Kenzo (SD) from Gearbest.
There was an old MIUI-version installed that wasn't really localized to German (maybe a shop-ROM), so I decided to install an up-to-date version of MIUI.
I downloaded the "Redmi Note 3 Qualcomm Latest Global Stable Version Fastboot File Download" from here, which seems to be V8.0.1.0.LHOMIDG (MIUI8), put my phone in fastboot mode (in EDL-mode it didn't work, MiFlash didn't find my phone) and installed the ROM with MiFlash. Everything is working now, localization is perfect and the phone runs smooth.
The only strange thing is, that I haven't been able to unlock the bootloader officially yet, wether with the "old" ROM-version nor with the latest Global Stable MIUI8.
On MIUI7 the unlock-tool said, I don't need an unlock(?), on MIUI8 it says my phone is not permitted (or something similiar), even if I have the confirmation-SMS from Xiaomi (that was on August 19th) and I'm logged in into my Mi-account on the phone and in the unlock-tool.
Am I doing something wrong? Here it's said that it should be possible to unlock using the offical way with my new ROM.
Or do I have to be on another ROM to unlock my bootloader?
Background is that I want to try out different ROMs, so I need to install TWRP first - and I absolutely need root-access!
Can I flash TWRP over adb without unlocking?
Any help from you is really much appreciated.
Thanks a lot and best regards
Mischa
You need unlocked bootloader to flash TWRP to the device
Did you follow the steps here?
http://en.miui.com/thread-280561-1-1.html
Thanks for the link, this looks really useful!
Is it right that I can stay on my Global Stable (Fastboot) ROM? Or do I have to flash the Global Beta Recovery ROM?
Guys, I need some help!
My phone is only found from MiFlash when it's in Fastboot-mode. When I put it in EDL-mode MiFlash can't find it.
EDIT: BTW, I just found this in my MiFlash-log:
Code:
[23:16:02]:install driver C:\Program Files (x86)\MiFlash\Source\ThirdParty\Google\Driver\android_winusb.inf to ,result False,GetLastWin32Error Unknown error (0xe000024b)
What does it mean? My phone is found with "adb devices" and the adb-drivers seems to be okay
The "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008"-driver is installed and shown in the device manager when I executed "adb reboot edl".
My phone seems to be in EDL-mode with black screen and blinking red LED.
Right now I'm running Global Stable (Fastboot) V8.0.1.0.
I had to install this ROM also when I was in Fastboot-mode, cause only then MiFlash found my phone (same problem), not in EDL-mode.
Do you have any idea what went wrong?
Worst thing is that I can't flash any ROM using this way anymore, cause MiFlash now says "phone is locked" when I try to flash anything in fastboot mode. Also recovery ROMs are not usable with updater-app (maybe because my bootloader is still locked).
So, seems like I'm caught: I can't unlock my bootloader, I can't flash any other ROM, I can't root and can't install TWRP - I'm stuck on Global Stable V8.0.1.0
I really appreciate any help from you!
Best regards and thanks a lot

EDIT: SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It finally worked
What I did? I used MiFlash V2016.04.01 (instead of the lastest version from August 30th), which I got from here: http://xiaomitips.com/download-in-progress/?dlm-dp-dl=1474 (I hope it's allowed to post links here, otherwise PM me for downloading it from my Google Drive).
After I installed it, it re-installed the Qualcomm-drivers - and with this version I was finally able to see my phone in EDL-mode.
I also found out that only with this version you could set the advanced settings in MiFlash, cause in the newest version this option is not available anymore.
BTW, after every attemp to unlock the bootloader officially failed, I now unlocked it successfully using the unofficial way.
Best regards
Mischa
Please kindly refer to the thread and read the details steps and instructions because it seems like everyone is trying to hit the unlock procedure without knowing that the stable(global) version of the ROM is not apt for the official or any unofficial unlock procedure !
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE DISABLED DRIVER SIGNATURE VERIFICATION IN YOUR SYSTEM.
Unlocking Bootloader Procedure:
1. Download zip file (recovery file) of OFFICIAL MIUI China developer ROM for your device :
http://bigota.d.miui.com/6.12.8/miui_HM3SGlobal_6.12.8_b00ffce744_6.0.zip
Please don't get confused with the link as it's indeed a Developer ROM by 'global' in between the link and not the Global stable ROM, you can check it yourself.
Other ROM would not work. Then put it into phone storage. Go to Updater app, press the three dot on upper right corner, and select 'Choose update package'. Choose the zip file you just put in phone storage. The update will wipe all user data, please make backup beforehand.
2. Log into the Mi account which has acquired unlocking permission on your device. Make sure it's the same with the account you sent your request. It's recommended to connect to the Internet for Mi account to sync
3. Turn off your device, press the Power button and Volume - button at the same time to enter bootloader mode
4. Log into the unlocking tool on PC with the same Mi account. Connect the device with the PC using USB cable
5. Press 'Unlock'. The unlocking process will complete in about 10 seconds
For those who already bricked your devices you may using Mi PC SUITE to reflash your device.You are advised to download it to install necessary files (ADB and so on) .
Hi... as far as i know.. you need to be on the same rom from which you have applied for bootloader unlock..
i bought new redmi 3s last week.. and same day applied for unlock... and when going through different threads.. lot of people saying that we need to be in developer rom or Chinese rom to unlock boot loader..so i downloaded global developer and installed it..
with in 2 days i got confirmation from xiaomi that i have permission for unlock.. to my bad.. every time i tried to unlock boot loader its stuck at 50% with current device information is different error..
so finally decided to downgrade to the same version from which i applied for unlocking.. so tried Deep flash cable method to put phone in qualcom loader to bypass bootloader... and installed same global stable version.. after successfully installing stable version tried unlocking.. and voila... bootloader unlocked with in 10 Seconds...without any hitch...
So if you want to unlock bootloader... wait for atleast 7 days after you get confirmation message from xiaomi...

Yes, glad someone else noticed it too. Yes I had trouble for a lot of days with developer ROM after getting permission a week back but no luck.
PS: Disabling Driver Signature Verification is paramount in this process.
Hello I need help with my Note 5. Downloaded latest global rom and mi flash tool.. entered edl mode with test point and i got a proplem saying "Only nop and sig tag can be recevied before authentication.".... now i assume i need authorized mi account to flash the rom but i dont have one and i see no way of getting one. I am currently on fake rom on a global version of the phone (the one with dual camera xiaomi note 5)
What i want right now is to flash any rom that can request for bootloader unlocking since in this fake rom that is disabled and my loader is locked..
any help?

Use EDL mode if your device bricked and it works only with designated rom, china to china and global to global because in this case your bootloader is locked. And before proceeding flashing thru EDL, you have to prepare eveything properly, such as disabling driver signature enforcement and installing correct driver (QD Loader 900D)
So, have you prepared and done all those things properly? 2 days ago I just flashed my device thru EDL due to failure flashing and now my baby is waking up
