Just got my Redmi note 3 pro today and I am wondering if there any other method to unlock the bootloader of it instead of using Xiaomi official way?
Any idea how much time it will take them to approve it?
I want to root and install custom ROM on it.
Thanks for your answers!
Nowadays the process is pretty fast, like within a week fast.
Just apply for permission and wait for it.
If they don't reply you within the week, just email them and they'll get back to you.
Also, you can search for unlocking guides here on XDA. Personally tho, I think that waiting for the official unlock is worth it for the convenience later on.

I have just had a massive headache with rooting my LeTV x600, apparently there are different batches... blah blah, it wouldn't root.
I am returning it, and looking at the Xiaomi redmi note 3 32gb version. Do Xaiomi phones have difficulties in being rooted or are they simple and problem free?
I don't care about custom roms etc, I just need that bloatware off! my letv phone wouldn't even last a days battery because of bloatware.
Depending on how you get it shipped you may need to flash an official copy of MIUI, but my phone installed TWRP quite easily and rooted without any issues.
I think you can simply install the dev Rom and you have root ☺

Just installed an official Developer rom via updater
~ Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Prime ~
Thanks guys, I've went ahead with the order (through Banggood). I've seen some videos and guides on other Xiaomi devices too and seems straight forward... I don't have the technical knowledge or time as I used to when I had my HTC HD2, I need idiot proof help these days lol
Just flash this TWRP in recovery mode

I've had problems using stock recovery to root. I used Fastboot to flash, and others have used (but I haven't) WinDroid.
With a lack of technical knowledge, you'll probably want to try WinDroid first, as it is basically a skin of Fasboot that makes it more user-friendly.
one of those devices that can be rooted very easy
Hi
im looking for a decent ROM for this device, didnt find anywhere
help please...
Don't think there is any at this point as the bootloader is locked and it's brand new out.
I believe like most redmi phones a global rom will become available. Hopefully when that comes more roms will follow.
Hello,
I have received of this particular Redmi Note 3 Pro Prime Special Edition (3GB Ram one).
It comes with MIUI Global 7.3 Stable 7.3.7.0 (MHRMIDE).
Now I see there are so many different guides and version and I would like to confirm before proceeding.
Essentially I want to unlock the bootloader and install custom roms (CM).
What is the best way to proceed?
Install Developer Edition (miui_HMNote3ProtwGlobal_6.9.29_f35a25dd3f_6.0) downloaded from http://en.miui.com/a-232.html ?
I am planning to do it via Updater application from the phone.
Have made a request via website for unlocking the bootloader. Anything else I need to do?
Thanks
Almost everything same with kenzo (RMN3 Snapdragon).

make sure you are signed into both i.mi.com and your phone using the exact same credentials.
I've unlocked mine probably a dozen times now, with some rom's locking and me reflashing over and over again. No issues, never got stuck at 50%. I've only ever used my email account to link to Mi account, never my phone number.
Hi all, I purchased the redmi 3 when it first came out for the gf. Still going strong, great phone for her.
When I got it it didn't have a global ROM, so I unlocked the boat loader officially and then installed the xiaomi 'global' ROM as an interim
Time has passed and I never got round to switching her to official, which of course is now a new android version ahead.
What's the most painless way of switching her?
If I was to put the official one as a zip file on the phone, could I update using the updater app? Would it lose all her apps and settings?
Any advice / first hand experience welcome. thanks
Hello,
For now i own a Xiaomi 9t pro, i love notchless and dropless phones, I am interrested by the Flip, but do you think Asus will let them unlock bootloader, and do cutom Roms ?
I always use Roms like Resurrection Remix or other cool ones.
I never brought a phone what can't be unlocked
Thanks
Yep you can unlock easy with an app :
Unlock App, Firmware and Kernel
