But I have seen persons who flashed santosh's cm13 n 14

Please guys help

I unlocked bootloader unofficially and tried to do this. I was stuck in bootloop. So my suggestion is to do it officially. They will give permission to unlock bootloader in just 2 days. I also got permission in just 2 days. In application just write the genuine reason.

Unlock Bootloader Request Problem

I wanna request permission to unlock bootloader via en.mi.com/unlock, but its always error like this after login my mi account.
do you have any solution ?
Thank You
there's no one can help me ?
Unlock your bootloader unofficially. It's a lot quicker. Plus, there's more chances of locking your bootloader again after flashing a custom ROM. don't find it necessary for permission to something that might get locked again.
Take a look at this tutorial for unlocking bootloader unofficially: https://youtu.be/CxVM7yrHTSE
Make sure you give exact credentials as in your MIUI account.
If your issue persist, raise a help request in MIUI forum regarding your account issue.
Else try signing with different account and check

GLOBAL STABLE 7.1.8.0 Rom Works perfectly. Its best to use this rom when unlocking your bootloader unofficially. Which rom are you currently on?

I tried to do it on 7.1.8, worked to unlock but I got strange bug, battery appeared as -2% and it didn't let me boot into recovery. So I locked the bootloader again just in case and started again but I used the latest stable rom, replaced the file and flashed. Then I flashed TWRP and I'm now running a custom ROM without problems and with an unlocked bootloader. Thank you for your help

I've never been angrier at a company than I am at Xiaomi

I live in Syria and all we have limited options for phones so I was very excited to learn that a xiaomi dealer started selling a couple of models one of them being the Redmi Note 3 specially with my 4 years old Nexus 5 battery almost dying so I payed 200$ to buy this phone which is A LOT of money here only because I noticed how much Roms and Mods it has and now after about 10 days of buying it I still get the error when trying to unlock the boot loader at 50% "Current account is different from the account info on the device" even after trying all the tutorials I found about turning gps and find my phone and locating the phone on the map and using the developer Rom still the same result.
I really really need root and having the phone without even the ability to root makes it unusable but selling the phone will lose me most of the price since the brand is unknown in my country so I have to sell for much less than what I bought for
I'm writing this just to ask the xda people is there ANY way at all to save me from selling the phone because I like it but I just can't be without root I'm willing to pay money just please any solution
if there's nothing I'll just sell and probably never buy a Xiaomi product again in my life I know Xiaomi doesn't care but I just had to say it because I'm so angry
You don't need root to have the opportunity to install custom roms all you need is unlocked bootloader. I guess you tried unlock bootloader by official method and it doesn't work for you, so try unofficial method: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/method-miui-8-unlock-bootloader-twrp-t3529458 (with youtube video step by step)
انت اشتريتو من البحصة؟
You need to wait 15 days more.

Salam brother, im sorry for whats going on in syria...
You should unlock it unofficially, because i have been doing it too.
Have you flashed the developer rom from the updater app? (from the phone itself)
You first need to have this rom on the device in order to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe all your phone's data.
@mshtob You have to wait 7 days more after getting unlock permissions. Unofficial version have some flaws,do read more about it. I recommend you to go back locked bootloader after 1month then try unlocking official way. Also when unlocked unofficially, do cross check before flashing firmware as some firmwares lock device. It will create more problems for u.
Regards
Stop getting mad like an underage kid my friend, you just need to unlock your bootloader officially being in a official ROM and it works without problems because I didt it a lot of times in different versions with the official method.
If you don't like Xiaomi don't buy their phones. Also 200 dollars isn't a lot, you will pay a lot of stuff in your life. Phones are a need, not a toy to install custom roms. If you like to test ROMs and stuff I encourage you to test with your Nexus 5 or get another Nexus/Motorola.
I also have a Nexus 5 btw.
After unlock unofficially you have to delete EMMC appsboot. bin in firmware update folder in any miui rom with the help of RAR App from play store, which relock your phone. And use this patched twrp

You don't need to unlock your bootloader in order to flash any custom ROM. Just follow the instructions on the following thread, and you will be able to run all Kenzo custom Roms and kernels.

[Q] Flashing Pixel ROM Redmi note 3

I am very keen to know about flashing ROMs
I am using Redmi note 3 SD 3G. I want to flash the pixel ROM for my device and I have the following doubts
1) Do I need to unlock my bootloader or without unlocking my bootloader I can directly flash TWRP?
2) If yes, then do I need a beta version of MIUI for unlocking my bootloader cause I have been trying since a very long time but it is stuck at 50%(I tried all the solutions).
Thanks a lot in advance
1. U have to unlock ur bootloader for flashing custom recovery .
2. it should be unlocked on any version but dev versions have more chance of unlocking than stable ones (especially china rom,s have high probability )
3 U can try unofficial bootloader unlocking but do it on ur own risk as it can hard brick ur device .

Wait for a few days or couple of weeks, that helped in my case. Update and try syncing your Mi account on your phone.
Follow the instructions here
http://en.miui.com/unlock/
If nothing works, follow this guide, just flash any ROM of your choice with TWRP.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/kate-guide-install-lineage-os-locked-t3546154
And if you want the Pixel experience, install PureNexus ROM, it is better.
Just flash lineageos with stock gapps. And then flash my universal pixelmod. It will give you full pixel experience. Nav bar not included yet. Will include it in future.

Unlocked bootloader is must and should if you wanna install custom recovery / rom.
There are guides about unlocking bootloader, check again and apply for permissions.
Nope, rooting, flashing custom recovery and unlocking bootloader doesn't void warranty on mi devices.

Thank you so much. I applied it yesterday night. and fortunately got permission today unlike other users I did not waited long period to get that. But I've a problem now. The flashing tool doesn't Unlock the boot loader. It Verify the device and failed at unlocking. (Error at 99%) It says Current Account is not bound to this device in the "settings> Developer Options> Mi unlock states "
I've tried various forum to unlock it. But nothing works. Tried to click "Add account to device" in developer options. It shows me an error 86012 (and some chinese text) What do I do now????

Wait 5-7 days, that's the only way to go. Don't try everyday. Try after few days.

How do I get the MM Fastboot rom? and how do i install it? Can someone walk me through? TIA

Don't answer if u don't know anything about question...
Fastboot rom is same rom as recovery rom or update. It is said fastboot rom because it can be flashed via fastboot / edl method.
@2000ftt since u r already on mm rom then u can continue to unlock bootloader unofficially but in case please already download fastboot rom so that if in emergency u can flash that easily through pc on ur mi phone.
Also unofficial unlock have some drawbacks please be sure to know them all.. I am too researching on unofficial unlock as my device is not getting unlocked. I hate miui rom.

Sorry bro, I apologize if u feel disrespected, my intention were pure.
I got my bootloader relocked, by this fastboot rom and now it is unable to unlock so I have researched thoroughly on all sites. May be it was anger towards miui that harsh words came out.
Also please advice, should I unlock unofficially..??
Regards
