Hi all.
I recently bought a Redmi Note 3 (Snapdragon, Kenzo variant) which has MIUI 8 Global Stable out of the box.
I was wondering if there's any way for me to use the unofficial bootloader unlock method in order to open up modification options for the device? I ask, as the tutorials I have read have all been for MIUI 7, and don't really want to attempt a downgrade if there's a high possibility of bricking the device.
Here's a screenshot of my "About phone" page, if it helps:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated!
Apply for permission to unlock bootloader at mi.com/unlock
After getting permission
Install Developer rom via EDL mode
Then login to with your mi ID I.mi.com and see if your Devce is online
Then download mi flash unlocker
Login with the same mi account of your phone
And click unlock
Hola your phone is unlocked

Thanks for that, but I specifically asked about the unofficial method. I'm aware that several users have experienced problems using the official method, you see.
I would always recommend doing the official first.
I only registered using email address and have unlocked several times (about 10) with zero issues as some ROM's lock the bootloader.
If doing it officially doesn't work, then I'd say you could look into the unofficial. May as well give official a try.

I had the same problem and this worked for me:
If you're using Global rom, make sure OEM unlock is enabled in developer settings (it is enabled by default in Dev rom).
If that doesn't work wait for 5 - 8 days (yup, sorry) to make sure the account verification is synced. Xiaomi's unlocking process is still buggy.
Or just unlock using unofficial method.

Hello all
I am looking to root my Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro to get some more functionality out of Tasker.
Problem is, I don't know which of all the available root procedures to choose as there are so many different ones for different devices I am confused
I know my device has 3GB RAM.
Yesterday I received an OTA update to what I beleive is the latest official ROM as seen here (Qualcomm Global Stable ROM).
It's the MIUI Global 7.5.3.0 Stable.
Here's what the "About phone" says:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Which method should I choose to root my phone?
Not really interested in changing the rom in itself, it's just the root I'm interested in.
Any help?
Thanks in advance
Have you unlocked the bootloader yet?
If you want to do it officially? You will need to update to developer rom. Plus request unlock privileges for it.
Look for threads on rooting, if you want to take OTA's in the future, make sure to make backups before rooting.
It is mainly just flashing supersu with TWRP and depending on how you unlocked, also flashing a modified boot.
Thank you for the quick reply.
No, I haven't unlocked the bootloader.
So, if I change to the developer rom, is this already pre-rooted? Did I understand this correctly?
Developer rom is not pre-rooted, you need it to unlock the bootloader.
Then you can flash TWRP and use it to root.
Good Wiki on reddit that will explain it.
That's excellent info, thank you very much.
I'll get on with reading now...

For me, it was 22+ days before I could unlock the bootloader officially. Their servers are crappy and slow to update the unlock request. Have patience and keep trying once everyday until you succeed. Do follow the steps mentioned here:

Hi everyone.
1 - After my xiaomi redmi 3 Note Pro was in bootloop I flashed it with MIUI Global 8.1/ Stable 8.1.1.0
2 - At the first boot, when I had to sign in to my Mi Account, the phone started saying "Checking Find device status...", without letting me even try to sign in.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3 - So i tried to flash the phone again but it doesn't work now: with every image version and every MiFlash version I try in MiFlash says [error:"Flash tz error"]. I've seen that this probably happens because my bootloader is still locked.
4 - So I tried to unlock it with the standard procedure with MiFlashUnlock, and after all the procedure I received the message, but when I try to unlock it says: "Couldn't verify device, current account is different from the account info on the device". So I've seen that this is because I can't login into my account in the phone (see section 2).
5 - I noticed that I'm able to access the apps and the settings of the phone even if I'm in the mi account login screen (see section 2) holding the center button and going to google now and searching for settings or app names. I tried from the settings to reset the phone but it doesn't allow me since I'm not logged, I also tried to update the phone with the update app, but it doesn't let me.
Pls help
i got the same problem, anyone can help to solve this?
Hello friends, I am somewhat lost with my xiaomi redmi note 3 pro (kenzo) and I need your help and advice.
The cell phone came with android 5.1 (a version that does not resieve any update modified by a Chinese store) and had an error when trying to unlock the bootloader, showed that it was unlocked, with MI Flash Unlock which was a lie.
With MI FLASH I put a ROM MIUI Developers (I do not know about the time, because the official site is in repair)
My version now of Miui is installed on my cell phone

Now when I try to unlock this image appears to me, I was waiting for it, there is no problem in waiting 3 days.
So far this is all very well.
This Monday I can unlock and I am a little happier but the questions are:
1) _ What tutorial do you recommend to install TWPR with OPEN Bootloader that allows me to install ROMs 8.x OREO?
2) _What do you recommend before starting and what stable ROM to install?
3) _flash SuperSU is the way to get root with the simplest open bootloader? Or what method suits me?
I ask because many tutorials are from 2016 and I do not think it is fully compatible with this 2018 and I do not want to leave the cell phone brick.
Sorry if I violated some protocol years ago that I do not post anything and I am somewhat lost android world.
Sorry bad english, and tanks.
