[Q] Unlocking bootloader official way

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.
Just got my RN3 SD last week and I'll share what I encountered

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

Tester

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

Redmi 3 - Bricked

Hello guys,
I've just installed TWRP to my unlocked Xiaomi Redmi 3 and when I got into TWRP recovery, before reboot I selected installing SuperSU too, but my Redmi stucked at MI logo. I'am trying to flash it through fastbooth method but Minimal ADB and Fastboot programme can't see my device.. I have TWRP so I can't choose download in recovery. I don't know what else to do.. Tried everything.. Please help

Try flashing this with twrp first before flashing anything, its gonna disable the dm-verity, also if you're using cm I think flashing the latest SuperSU will brick your phone, but if miui then its probably because of the dm-verity, just flash this first and see if it works

[HELP] Redmi Note 3 (kenzo) not booting up, only recovery. !

so i was on epic miui 7.1.20 and i was triying to flash latest epic miui 7.2.16 (( https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/epic-rom-miui-8-7-1-12-beta-redmi-note-t3536480 )) using jamflux twrp which is the one they use on that thread. and was getting error 7 every time i tried flashing epic rom. so i flashed AOSIP that i had on my sd card and that installed just fine and booted no problem.
i tried to flash epic rom again but using this recovery (( https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/development/recovery-twrp-3-0-2-0-t3446909 )) and still getting error 7. so i downloaded latest nitrogenOS and twrp says it installed succesfull but when i hit reboot system it reboots stragiht into recovery. doesnt even show the MI logo on startup. so now the phone is just sitting in recovery no matter how many times i wipe and re install roms. when i reboot into system, it wont boot, even when i select power off it goes straight to recovery.
there has to be a solution and i dont thing my phone is bricked since i can access twrp.
any help ? thanks.

Try flashing zcx TWRP using fastboot
flash zxc twrp usinbg the option of flashing image files within your current twrp and
flash zxc twrp using existing twrp and reboot to new twrp and then wipe data,cacahe,system and dalvik cache and see to it that system is mounted to have effects.
flash new epic rom and should resolve your problem.
regards
Dharmesh
Zcx is best for rn3

Why do you need to go back to Lollipop? Even in Oreo nowadays many banking/financial apps etc. don't work anymore.

That should be fine. What was the last thing that you flashed before this started? That is where you need to start looking.
I just normally update miui and it done via stock miui recovery

It seems that the updater has borked something, but I am not sure how the stock MIUI recovery could bork things in this way. You would normally recover from such a situation by flashing a fastboot MIUI ROM, but it seems that you don't have this option because of the state of your bootloader.
You might well have to do some rather drastic stuff.
I also try to open fastboot mode in another redmi note 4 (mido) with same miui version here same issues is shown

I never had such a problem with that MIUI version. But then I never did any OTA updates with the MIUI updater + MIUI recovery, so I don't know.
I don't remember what kind of things you can do with stock recovery - but you might want to flash another MIUI ROM with it if you can do such a thing with stock recovery. If not, then you are truly stuck, unless you are willing to take some rather drastic (and risky) action (eg, if you can somehow enter EDL mode - or you could try flashing a custom recovery img using an app like flashify, and if that works, then you can flash another firmware zip or another ROM).

bootloop after flash with miflash

Hello
I have a bootlopped Redmi 5 and can't get it to work.
I disassembled the back cover and merged the test points and flashed it with the MiFlash tool.
Clearly, I flashed the latest full firmware version (fastboot version)... but it keeps staying in bootloop.
It gets to the "Just one second [safe mode]" screen and reboots....
What should I do?
Thanks
fixed using this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...on-to-fix-all-kinds-of-sensor-issues.3906424/
