wait 2 3 days more. its normal. thier servers take more time . just try after 2 3 days. it will unlock.
my advice is that you should unlock it officially
regards

its more than a week for me , getting permissions..still I'm not able to unlock the bootloader ! Its like Xiaomi is forcing to stay on MiUi

Be sure you have:
1) added your mi account to accounts on your phone
2) enabled "OEM unlock" in developer settings
3) a miui dev rom

flash dev rom through miflash thn unlock bootloader

Try this if you have not found it yet in other post.
In About menu, unlock the developer mode. by clicking the MIUI version 7 times
Then go to Additional settings > Developer Options > Tap on Mi Unlock Status
Tap the only one button in this menu - to associate you Mi account to the phone.
Back to developer option,
Enable OEM unlocking and USB debugging.
Tested on MIUI 8 Global Developer Rom
Good luck

Unable to unlock bootloader

I had received the bootloader unlock permission for my kenzo on December 12th, but whenever I try to unlock, the notorious "Couldn't verify device" error appears. I've been repeatedly trying to unlock for the past few days, but in vain. I have only one Mi account, which received the unlock permission, and my device and laptop are logged into it. I have tried all of the following tips prescribed in various forums:
1. Tried signing in to i.mi.com and use find device service.
2. Disabled driver signature enforcement in my laptop.
3. Removed pattern/pin and fingerprint.
4. Bind Mi account for unlocking in developer options, but it shows some 86012 error.
5. Flashed MIUI 8 global developer rom 6.12.22 (currently using it).
6. Emailed Xiaomi India service, which advised me to take my phone to service centre!!
7. PM'ed some mods in MIUI forum about the issue.
8. Tried different versions of the MiUnlock app.
9. Tried doing it on different USB ports and different PC.
10. Patiently waited for many days. :crying:
I have all the necessary drivers installed in my laptop, and of course, I have enabled OEM unlocking and usb debugging in developer options.
So, after patiently waiting for 16 days after receiving unlock permission, I am ultimately about to give up on this. Is there anything else I can do to get my device unlocked?? (PLEASE DO NOT SUGGEST UNOFFICIAL METHOD).

To install unofficial rom you dont need to unlock bl anymore, just follow this instruction and you be all set.

Yea...good to know...for some users it gets unlocked without any hassle, even on global stable ROM...it just depends on whether your device details have been refreshed in xiaomi's servers...
Yeh...Global stable Rom can also be unlockable.
It's been 5 days but still no luck

It doesn't matter, just wait for 4-5 days without trying to unlock the phone and try after 4-5 days , your phone will be unlocked..
Older version dont work. Still binding time is too short. Any solution? This process is insane. Wait por 3 days to unlock, xiaomi sucks.

Unlocking bootloader of Redmi note 3 (MTK Version)

Hi
I have a redmi note 3 Hennessy device and i attempted to unlock its bootloader using Mi unlock tool. However it is giving me the "Failed at 50% progress" error. I have permission and everything. Now i was wondering, is it mandatory to be on a MIUI developer ROM in order to successfully unlock the bootloader? Can i do it while i am not global stable rom?

i had the same issue, while you read online that u should do so many stages in order for this to work. all you have to do is wait!
just take yourself 10-11 days just to be safe, (mine was unlocked after 8, but i changes from person to person).
also just checking that u do have OEM unlock enabled in your settings, and ofcourse USB debugging, and that u have clockwork adb drivers on your PC.
hope i helped, let us know if it works after a few days
Thanks for your reply. However, I cant seem to find the option OEM unlock anywhere in settings. Where is it located?

You can find both options USB debugging and OEM-Unlock in developer options.
http://xiaomiadvices.com/miui-7-enable-developer-options-and-usb-debugging-on-xiaomi-android-phones/
If you still face the 50% issue after allowing oem unlocking and ADB interface, try uninstalling usb drivers from Device Manager, that helped me everytime.

Always 99% / 86012 error while unlcoking bootloader - [ UPDATE - UNLOCKED! ]

UPDATE : Okay so i finally unlocked the bootloader finally. before the last try, i turned off the password/fingerprint lock and then it unlocked. everyone should try the same thing
I done every possible steps but nothing is happening! the bootloader unlock process always getting stuck at 99% and Account Bound error is coming on the PC and on the phone, "86012:*****" error showing on 'settings-additional settings-dev option-Mi Unlock status'.
I tried with 2 different Mi phone/account.
done with i.mi.com stuffs and find device, tried FlyVPN but there is no server of 'Shanghai"... etc!
Nothing is happeneing! I am a beta tester of MIUI 9 China, and see, i couldn't even unlock the bootloader yet! Wow! What a thing! Its been a week and so, still my bootloader is locked.
No help from Xiaomi.
I need a promising way to unlock. so help me.
See, I have unlocked three RN4 devices, none without the wait.
Had to wait 6-7 days for each one of them. There has been no luck for me in doing anything other than wait for 6-7 days after getting the permission.
But then, maybe something might work out for you.
The steps I tried or know of:
1. Being on the developer ROM is a must. Chances of unlocking bootloader from global stable MIUI are very slim.
2. Use old Mi Unlock tool. A quick google will land you there.
3. Don't change the accounts in the phone. You should be logged in with the account you got permission in.
4. Go to developer options and check "USB Debugging", "OEM Unlock" and one more option something sort of "USB Debugging Security".
5. Try to bind the account. It will yield a response with some code and Chinese text. Ignore it.
6. Use the original cable and use the ports on the back of the CPU.
7. Keep "Find my device" turned on. And log in to your account in your desktop and try locating your phone.
8. Now try unlocking.
I followed all the above steps I could find out from anywhere and I was able to do it.
In your case I do think you are either not in the developer build or you need to use the old Mi tool.

Why do you say, "and try 3 days later"? Am I to understand that MIUI won't unlock until a min of 72 hours AFTER they approve?

I had the same issue as OP. Solved when I flashed a week after I got the permission.
Idk, maybe they take time to update their servers even after they're given out the permissions.
For me, my Redmi note3 reaches 99% and fails.
I have latest unlocking tool, USB drivers installed, Device binded, permission granted on MI site on Monday, but as of Wednesday I am still unable to do anything.
Suggestions from Aniket Salunkhe and Qoejohn implemented but situation does not change.
I have though not removed fingerprints and cannot remove device unlock code, since company apps are installed on it.
Appreciate any suggestions folks!
If I am correct the mi unlock says current account can't unlock this device at 99℅ ,I was facing this too but it is xiaomi server bug check miui forum you cannot do anything the xiaomi devs are not going to fix it

Is this method mentioned on MIUI forum to unlock bootloader working?

Title EDIT:
Link: http://en.miui.com/thread-345728-1-1.html
My RN3 currently has Global MIUI 9 Global 7.11.23 | Beta ROM installed.
Yeah working, but it's unofficial unlock.

Thank you, Sir. I have tried the official method for the past seven days, but it gets stuck on 99% Account not bound to this device. That's why I searched for other methods.
Also, I am never going to flash MIUI ROM on my device again. Could the unofficial method still be a problem?

As you have official permissions first try to perform these steps & try unlocking :
> Locate device using MI cloud (find device) https://i.mi.com/
> check if the mail , phone are linked to your MI account
> Enable OEM unlocking & bind MI account with your device in developer options
> Download this https://mega.nz/#F!iQVFTB5Z!elmzC8piy8PukrOxiXHDFw connect the device to pc turned on - go to developer options & revoke USB debugging authorizations - now enable USB debugging - open cmd from the folder which you've downloaded - type adb devices ( hit enter button) - if it displays daemon started on port xxxx - you'll get a pop up on mobile ... accept it - disable pattern lock, num lock, etc delete fingerprints - now try unlocking logging in with a mobile number if it fails then email id & finally with mi account number.
Also make sure to wait for a week to unlock officially.
If everything fails you can proceed to unlock unofficially & remove ****UI from your phone.

Okay, Sir. I'd just like to point out the fact that I noticed one thing mentioned on that thread. It is specifically for Kate (Redmi Note 3 Special Edition) while my device is a plain Redmi Note 3 Kenzo with 2GB Ram and Hexa Core SnapDragon.
I think this might be a problem since that .mbn file mentioned on that page belongs to a different variant.
Can you please point me to the correct thread? Or a method that uses .mbn file to unlock bootloader on my device?
