Hey guys,
first of all, i used the search but couldnt find what im looking for.
I need a unoffical way to unlock the MTK version of the Redmi Note 3 32GB 3GB Ram
Im currently running 8.6.8.11 chinese dev rom. Root is not granted. The security app says due to safety reasons the fastboot is locked.
The phone is for colleague who doesnt speak a word english. So he asked me to install a custom rom.
After a lot of hardbrick situations (he made a update, locked the bootloader again and tried to fix it by himself ) i got the phone back alive. I cant find the old tutorial anymore with the unoffical unlock procedure. Official unlock always tells me i dont fullfill the requirements.
Does anyone of you experts here can help me to unlock the "old fashioned" MTK phone
It totally drives me crazy the last 3 days (nights) ^^

Hi Guys,
I purchased RN3 yesterday. I want to unlock the bootloader so sent the Application to Xiaomi but the process is So long an wait is killing me. So decided to unlock it unofficially . I did ltyle search and found this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/unlock-bootloader-twrp-root-7-2-3-t3359492
Bt the files used here are for MIUI 7 version.
So I have some queries.
1) is it safe to use the .mbn file from this tutorial? Will it work?
2) if it is not can anyone point me to the tutorial to unlock rn3 on miui 8?
Thanks
Hi All,
I don't normally post to ask questions but on this occasion I've spent a few hours already trying to figure out how to unlock the bootloader without requesting it officially (I don't want to have to wait).
I can't find a proper guide anywhere, I've been searching for hours. I see people talking about how awkward it is to get it done but they've actually done it though.
Can someone help an old timer get this Redmi Note 3's bootloader (Mediatek) unlocked?
Much appreciated.
I Found this thread too but it seems it's just for the Kenzo variant.

I'm looking for a way to unlock the Mediatek variant which is what I have.
Hi, I'm pretty new to the android scene, I've looked for a few days if there is a possible way to unlock bootloader on an Xperia M4 Aqua 2306, the issue is my phone has Bootloader unlock allowed = No and didn't actually find if there is an actual way to do this.
Found a few threads talking about how to unlock the bootloader but it seems from some posts that it's not possible to unlock, I was wondering if anyone could help me figure it if there is any possibility to unlock since my phone is quite slow and would love to breath some life to it, any help would be greatly appreciated!

the onli way i was able to root my 2306 was to downgrade with flashtool to lolipop the vertion 26.1.A.1.112 ...the onli one old enough to root with kingroot the onli app i found to root lolipop ....but then none of the tutorial i read got me back to the last update without loosing root and aving to deal with the 100 of preinstalled app .....tryed to let it at lolipop but the phone is now extremly sloooooow
was able to get to recovery but then after looking at all custom rom .....they all need to be install with fastboot and they all stated that you need unlock bootloader so i stop trying the phone is not realy worth it anyway
After doing little digging in , found few things about unlocking bootloader , rooting and flashing some root apps.. but our beloved device seems to be under the shackles of oem. Rooting and installing system apps comes with a price, u cannot update if there is any system updates from oem.
Created this thread hoping that someone can find some way of breaking these shackles. Anyone who knows a way of rooting and installing system apps without breaking system updates from oem, please share your ideas here.. I've been a long time flashaholic and this is what I used to do with my previous phone which is OnePlus one.
Unlock bootloader, root, install few root apps that I like such as viper 4 android. And when there is new ota updates from oem I'll flash stock firmware which will remove root so that I can update the phone with oem ota, after that I'll root again..
This seems to be impossible here.. if someone have some ideas please share..
Ps. If someone feels like this thread is unnecessary pls feel free to do the needful. Thanks.
Found this new nokia flash tool and steps with download links for stock roms.. could someone let me know if this is legit ? I'm pasting the website link here so that people can check that, pls forgive me if it's not allowed

Tried this myself and found that the fastboot for our device doesn't recognise the bootloader unlocking fastboot commands.. also found in few posts that earlier we were able to unlock bootloader in some old firmware and after that it was disabled by hmd.. I didn't want to go to some old firmware to do this, need to find a way to do this from Android 10. will keep trying to find more and update here.. I think we a need to wait till hmd decides to allow is to unlock bootloader.. meanwhile if someone else found something pls so share here.. thanks.

Definitely legit, he is the main developer for our device.
You are correct on the bootloader.
You need to be on earlier Android 9.0 firmware, I think Ver. 331 (not positive) or earlier. To be able to unlock bootloader. If you can figure a way to downgrade, then you can do it.
That is the current roadblock.
Once you have the bootloader unlocked it will stay unlocked.
You can then accept updates and or flash custom ROMs as you wish.
Can't offer a fix, but hope the information helps.
Now we don't need for downgrading to Android 9. XDA Senior @singhnsk has discovered a way to unlock the bootloader while on Android 10. You can reach him for remote unlock method (paid). It takes only around 15 mins.
Edit: Now the devs has released an unlocking method for Nokia 7.2 & 6.2 which is completely free and can be done by yourself!
Check out the thread here for free unlocking guide!

Hi, I'm about to purchase this device. Now that everyones had it for a year, is it worth buying over the xiaomi 9t pro?
Also can I unlock bootloader and get root access on this phone?
Thanks

Considering that NOTHING has happened with this device in terms of accurate development and Raphael now has MANY custom ROM options, I would go with the Xiaomi.
However, this device is far better but I can't see the development taking off any time soon, if ever
Hi all, since I'm searching, I dont find this... Is there already a solution to flash the chinese Rom in global Rom or Europe Rom ?
Thanx a lot !
