I got permission through sms in 3 days..
but I tried everyday unlock process, and I can confirm that after 7 days ( today) , i got 100% success in unlocking bootloader.
Got permission after 2 days, unlocked the same day. It didn't work with global stable, so I switched to global developer, and that worked instantly.
7 days, unlocked officially .
I was on the verge of unlocking by unofficial method ....
I kindda installed the MIFlash software and the drivers that come along with it (Now my windows 8 shows a Test Mode message on the bottom right ) and it unlocked successfully...officially..
So, I can't say whether it was the time per say OR the installation of Drivers that unlocked my device. However, i would really suggest installing MiFlash to get the Xiaomi drivers if the software is stuck at 50% error...Cheers!
Got permission in 3 days , Unlocked after a week.
Permission sms in 2 days , unlocked right away succesfully.
3 days till the message arrived, but I applied on wrong account, so it took me some time to take the account back and unlock.

My case less than ten days without any confirmation sms, and I went to unlock officially with success.

Hi people, I had applied long ago for this. Confirmation sms came just the next day, but process always stuck at 50% progress (A/C logged in to device is different than A/C in MiUnlock Tool, it says.)
I have tried, as advised by many, in Global Stable, Global Dev and even tried China Dev today. (Still nothing.) Please suggest how to unlock, as the official unlock never worked for me as well.

Maybe you should login your verified account into your device before entering fastboot for unlocking.

I never received an e-mail or sms. Three or four days after I applied for permissions I just open the Mi Unlock program and I had permissions.

Tell them the truth, your western user (I assume) and you want to root and maybe install custom roms.

Right. I'd like to mod the phone. Really, I don't like a phone being stock. There're lots of thing rooted phone could do. Sometimes it's good to change the appearance of a phone.
I should just try it.

This is my old acc, i've already unlocked 3s with this account, now i'm trying to unlock note 4, but it shows this error.
Try making new account. When did you unlock thr bootloader of redmi 3?
First, turn that option on.
Second, use an older version of the unlocker, it works without waiting.
The account of the design you logged in HAVE TO BE the same you'll login on the unlock tool + you need the permission for it.

tried​ but it stuck at 50% on old version.
Make a new account
Fix this error by simple steps
Got to developer options, then:
1 > Enable "usb debugging"
2 > Enable "usb debugging (security settings)"
3 > Enable oem unlocking
4 > Then try unlocking tool. Cheers! Hopes this helps.
Make a new account try unlocking and wait for 7 days then again try to unlock. Vollla you have unlocked ur RN4
Use older version of unlock tool.

Voila ....I got success

Hi,
I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x and it has a boot loop issue. When I turn on the phone, "Mi" logo appears and after a minute it reboots. I decided to flash its official stock ROM. After some search, the phone should be unlocked in order to flash the stock ROM. I downloaded Mi Unlock Tool, I signed in and I got " current account is not bound to this device" error. Since I've got no access to the device and therefore cannot add an account, I cannot unlock the phone to flash the stock ROM. Is there a solution for this problem or has my phone got bricked?
Thanks in advance.
Any ideas? Please help.
Have you tried flashing MIUI through Fastboot?

Yes but no luck. In order to flash, I believe that the phone must be unlocked. As I mentioned, I cannot unlock the phone.

Unlock bootloader using unofficial methods, I don't know if it works but worth giving a try.

Unofficial methods such as?
you have to bind your mi-account email first and then in developers settings (if im not wrong) you have to sign in your email again to get access on mi unlock tool

I cannot access to the phone because as soon as the Mi logo shows my phone reboots. Thus I can neither bind my mi account nor access to developer settings on my phone.

Hi,
Has anyone tried to unlock the bootloader on their new phone? If so, what was the wait time you were given by Xiaomi? Am curious as recent Xiaomi phones have vastly increased waiting times for unlocking but as this phone is a global model and supposedly developer friendly I am hoping to not have to wait weeks when I receive mine.
Also, as an oem unlock does a full reset, is there any good method for performing a nandroid style backup of all apps and associated settings so if I do have to wait, I don't need to set everything up twice?
https://en.miui.com/unlock/
not able to apply, after login it just says ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS :/
were u able to apply ?
edit : installed mi unlock on pc then tried, says 1440 hours wtf

AFAIK there is no way to take a nandroid backup without rooting your device. Now if you could root your phone without unlocking the bootloader that might just do.
However there are few exceptions like HELIUM you can try.

Xiaomi changed the bootloader unlock policy. Now, you can unlock the bootloader after 3 days. I just unlocked mine which was showing 720hours.

Has the oem unlock switch actually stuck in the correct position, it's a stupid switch that reverts itself, when you leave the screen you gotta click it a few times, sorry if you knew that already
hello .... I have a sister redmi note 4 who has a bootloop ... on the screen with the MI logo it keeps restarting .... it goes to fastboot but not to recovery ... the bootloader is locked and I still can't unlock it because what I looked so unlocked in the system by logging into my MI account ... but I can't get to the system ... I tried my flash but it says that it did something for 4 seconds and nothing still the same .... I tried to put it into download mode - by connecting contacts on the board and miflash download ROM to the phone but bootloop still continues
do you have any ideas?
the phone was so stupid that it kept restarting but always after several restarts it started but now even after two days of restart it didn't start ...
thanks sorry for my english
I had a stroke reading this.
Unlocked bootloader is the basic requirement of flashing. If you don't have it, then sorry you're out of options.
Your only option is to flash stock ROM through test-point method. DO IT ON YOUR OWN RISK.
You can find Xiaomi stock ROMs of your device here (MTK) or here (MIDO).
Of course you can always just send your device to a repair center and change it there.
Goodluck.
test point method is lint two pins od board and run mobile to download mode? I try it ... flashing was succesfull but mobile ist still bootloop

You need to flash stock ROM not any other ROM.
As in the same ROM you had before any issue. Because your bootloader is locked it will refuse to run any boot image that isn't registered in it.
If you have a backup maybe you can flash it through download mode.
I try ROMs from your link and not working...always bootloop I try a lot of ROMs - global, china, stable, weekly and not working....flash is succesfull around 190seconds.... but still bootloop

I Can't help you there mate.
Maybe there is a way to get system info from bricked phone. Maybe through a hex editor or something. That way you know exact version of the ROM you had.
So instead of that maybe you can unlock your bootloader, just request from Xiaomi unlock code with your XIaomi account and unlock it. It usually takes 30-60 days for the request to go through.
Where I find old way to unlock bootloader? because in new unlocker I unlock phone butt I must log in to my account in system... thanks
