I just bought Redmi Note 3 SD. I am running the latest global stable build based on LP. I wanted to move to Global Beta Builds. I tried to flash the recovery zip using updater app. But it always showed "couldn't verify update package".
So i searched a bit. And think it requires bootloader to be unlocked first. But I have some doubts :
1) After unlocking bootloader can I flash global beta recovery rom zip using updater app ? Or fastboot is the only method even after unlocking bootloader ?
2) If I am stuck at 50% during the unlocking process, will the phone wont boot not anymore ? Or I can boot it just like it was before ?
3) Does data gets wiped during bootloader unlocking ?
Thanx in advance...

1. Any rom that supports flashing through recovery can be flashed through the recovery.
2. If you are stuck at 50% while unlocking your phones boot loader, don't worry. Your phone will boot and work just fine.
3. Nothing will be wiped after unlocking your phones boot loader, everything stays the way it is.
I hope I answered your questions

And you don't need an unlocked bootloader to flash the beta global MM ROM. You can use miflash and flash the phone in edl mode. If you take a backup in MIUI first, you can restore all your apps and data too. If you're even braver, you can replace the stock recovery image in the ROM with ZXCTWRP at the same time so you can flash SuperSU, Xposed, etc. all with a locked bootloader.
Download an older dev build like 6.8.18 which should work through the updater app, then you can go to 6.9.29 after that.

I don't know. I'm perfectly happy on the MM beta and have no desire to go back to LP.
Good luck.

No, you don't need unlocked bootloader to flash latest Global beta. What you need to do is boot to EDL mode and flash Global Beta through MiFlash tool.
TIP Make sure fist that your device is properly recognized by your PC through correct drivers. Usually the MiFlash drivers are sufficient but I had problems with the MTP driver so I had to search the internet for this

I don't think so since your error seem to depend on the updater app, and not the bootloader
TIP If you do decide to unlock bootloader, try to unlock in your current ROM first before flashing Global Beta. In my case, I applied for permission on Day1, Got my permission on Day 3, Failed to unlock until Day 5 where I EDL flashed Global beta and I was able to unlock by then. I think I could have unlocked faster if I EDL flashed Global Beta earlier

It will still boot. You just need to hold the power button long enough (you're in fastboot when unlocking)

No. Data gets wiped when you flash something in fastboot/EDL or when you wipe it in custom recovery
Other Info
ROM that came with the Phone is official MIUI 7.2.3
Global beta I flashed is 6.9.22
After unlocking bootloader, I flashed ZCX TWRP
After Flashing ZCX TWRP, I flashed xiaomi.eu ROM 6.9.29 and got bootloop. To fix this I had to flash LazyFlasher.zip after xiaomi.eu ROM and then did a factory reset via TWRP

Yeah but i didn't wanted to move into this miflash stuff right now. I had bad experience with my last phone mi3 when i flashed it using miflash. So i want to just move to Global beta MM build using stock recovery..

I also got the permission 1 week back. But i read that it takes usually 1 to 2 weeks to get the data updated in their databases. And i don't want to go to EDL and MiFlash stuff yet. I had bad experience with Mi3 when i used MiFlash

Hi guys, I need Your urgent help I am on a Nought based ROM Citrus CAf 7.1.1 on my Xiaomi RedmiNote 3 snapdragon Now I want to go back to MIUI 8 I had a nandroid backup but whenever I get to recover it it gets struck on mi logo. I am able to flash other Roms without a struck . I am thinking to flash full MIUI global stable ROM but I m afraid that I will get a loop again. And if a flash full stable ROM my bootloader will get locked and twrp recovery gone and thus I will not be able to flash anything if my phone gets struck on mi logo then how will I be able to unlock my devices bootloader?
So guys what should I do ??
Should I stop thinking of going back to MIUI 8
Or is there a way
Thanks in advance
You can go back to MIUI Rom by flashing MIUI stock Rom via EDL Mode using MI Flash tool. And if your bootloader gets locked you can unlock it again using unlocker tool (only if you have unlocked bootloader officially). I've flashed many customs rom and revert back to MIUI by same process. Hope this will help you.

But that isn't problem I know I can flash MIUI stock via EDL but what if my Phone gets struck on mi logo
Because I have a nandroid backup and it was working fine before but now whenever I restore it I get struck on mi logo therefore I'm worried if it will get struck again

You won't be stuck in MI logo if you flash Rom Via EDL mode.
I was on nitrogen N rom. Then I wiped the data, cache etc and flashed latest firmware and then flashed the Viper os and gapps. Then booted the phone to os. But it just blinks the mi logo. Even when I try to go to recovery, only mi logo blinks.
Phone is not even charging.
Only Fastboot mode wrks. But that too phone is not detecting in laptop on windows 10.
Kindly help me.
Your phone has been soft bricked and there is nothing to panic about this happens while flashing the roms as sometimes the flashing process is not done successfully or executed successfully ..So the solution for this is to flash the fastboot rom using the mi flash tool and to flash the this rom you need to open fastboot mode and then the edl mode..in this edl mode the phone will be detected by the mi flash tool and the flashing would be done ..
Refer this link for the process

Probably because you had an unofficially unlocked bootloader and because you flashed lastest firmware it is locked now. If i am right about your problem then the following is the easiest way out.

No.. Unlocked the bootloader officially. When I flashed the firmware, it might have relocked the bootloader again. And also cudnt open recovery. Either way, it just blinks the MI logo and power off.
When I tried to unlock the bootloader again officially, it stucks at 50%.
Dono wat to do exactly now.
P. S. Tried that method in that thread link you gave. It shown as success in the flash tool. Den tried to flash TWRP in fastboot, it shown as failed.

Yes, you can flash stock firmware in edl mode when bootloader is locked. And you need to unlock bootloader If you need twrp to install custom rom.

This way always works for me. Did you tried flashing twrp again? Maybe you can try once more. Or you might have done something wrong. Bdw can you tell me what exactly it showed when you tried flashing twrp??

I can tell you how to check if a particular firmware will lock it. Download the zip and check if it has emmc.appsboot.mbn file. If it is there then your bl will get locked.
To flash the firmware without getting locked, you need to remove that file from the zip. You can do that with any zip app. Just select it and delete, and flash the zip?.
PS: All the above is only if you have unlocked unofficially. Else any firmware will do. Just be sure to get the latest one.

Get a custom recovery to wipe all partitions out. There might be an easy way out but you'd want to prefer a clean flash after this. And did you use EDL before unlocking?

hmm without unlocked bootloader I can't flash a custom recovery and there is no option to flash a custom recovery using another method(so I used EDL method),

I used EDL because I there was no way to flash ROM on my phone!

That is quite a bad state that you have gotten yourself into. If you can reboot into bootloader, you can wipe every partition and flash a fastboot image of MIUI ROM to get it back to work. Remember to be specific about IMG files as they can make/break your system. You have a soft brick now but selecting a wrong IMG file can result a hard brick.
Any Updates ?
My poco f1 has its bootloader unlocked, i tried to flash the updated ota updates via mi flash, but except the 9.6.22 (Oreo 8.1) version, none of the roms is letting me boot, some of the versions lets me go to the recovery but when i choose boot to system, it'll go back to fastboot, other versions like the latest 12 version wont let me even boot to the recovery, after booting to the 9.6.22 version, i tried applying the ota updates from settings, which updated the phone to 10.0.4 version, the phone booted after that correctly as well, but after the phone downloads and installs the v11 update, it again goes to fastboot with no way to access the recovery, i tried booting to twrp as well, which just shows me a black screen and nothing else. Does anyone know any solution to this issue? TIA
