I have to unlock my bootloader of redmi note 3 i got permission from xiaomi but when i used mi unlock tool to unlock bootloader but it is showing verific
ation error
It's a common error you might face. The solution is to enable oem unlock in developer options and USB debugging and go to i.mi.com and login in with your account to make sure that the device is shown online. Then go to fastboot and try unlocking. If it doesn't work, wait for some 3 days and try again.
Mine worked after 3 days.
this method worked for me (kenzo) when i was on V8.0.6.0.LHOMIDG MIUI8.
1- you need to switch from global stable to global developer rom, download the latest global developer rom on android lollipop(5.1).
unfortunately xda won't let me include links,so google this : miui_HMNote3ProGlobal_6.8.18_d0da79d09e_5.1.zip
2- after downloading the rom,rename the file name to Update.zip then copy to internal storage(in downloaded_rom folder).
3- open updater app, select choose update package, go to downloaded_rom folder and select Update.zip. It will verify your rom and install it.
4- download the latest global developer rom from en miui , repeat the steps 2 and 3.
5- sign in to your mi account on your device(enable find device),also on i.mi.com(to check your device). enable developer options, then enable OEM unlocking and USB debugging.
also check your status in developer options>unlock bootloader(I forgot the exact name of this section)
6- download the latest version of MIFlashUnlock tool and log into your account
7- turn off your device and go to fastboot (press and hold volume - and power button at the same time), connect your device to your PC, click unlock(on MIFlashUnlock tool), after your bootloader successfully unlocked, click on reboot.
also there is no need to wait after receiving your permission, it worked for me after a few hours of searching for solutions and if I knew this method in the first place, I don't think there would be a problem right after receiving my permission to unlock the bootloader.

Entering method 4
I have downloaded latest developer rom,
moved it to phone's internal memory,
But when I tried to update with updater app, it throws an error that I am permitted to update to other stable update only.
For other methods, I am getting error at 50% "Couldn't verify device - Current account is different from the account info on the device". The phone is also not booting to EDL mode. It's just booting to android instead.

But as you have said on your other thread the method in the link follows fastboot mode which is for unlocked Bootloader only. My phone's Bootloader is still locked. And I am unable to enter EDL mode also. Phone reboots to android when I try to enter download mode.

Without edl mode with locked bootloader it is not possible to flash. So there are various methods to open edl mode. Search on google you will get it.

good job!
excellent guide
big thx !
do you turn off drivers signature enforcement in your pc
@m4mohit , maybe you should add, that logging into miui accound and activate device track can help at unlocking also. in fact this was how it finally worked for me. despite the other prerequisites
im using windows 7 32bit so there is no driver signature check i guess
New method for unlock OEM UNLOCK in developer options
1. You must connect to it internet when you want first time booting (if you skip it flash again Stock Rom)
2. You must keep internet connection during all-time that you want unlocking OEM (important step) don't turn off until unlocking OEM
3. Go to Data & Time settings and turn off automatic date & time and set date 8 days ago
4. Comes to software update and turn off auto update and tap to download updates manually
5. After this go to about phone >> software info >> build number taps a few times
6. Comes to developer options in setting you can see there is no OEM
7. Now turn off developer options
8. Now reboot phone
9. After reboot turn on again developer options
10. You can see OEM unlocked now
11. If it not turns on try again from step 3
i think this method is outdated. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/a7-2017-w-binary-9-rmm-state-unlock.4057831/#post-82049513 this is my next try.

try to update and see if it there
important point. after confirming the desire to unlock and clear data, the bootloader really(!) unlocks only after the initial settings and when you see the gray immutable "OEM unlock" switch in the developer menu.
If you didn't see this item the first time, you need to enable the Internet and update the security policies, and at the same time disable them immediately.
This is the only reason for the appearance of the red inscription "only official ..." and this is the way to switching "rmm state" from prenormal to cheking.

I think you are booting your phone into bootloader mode.
You do not have to boot your phone into bootloader mode, instead you have to boot in Odin mode. For that, switch off your SAMSUNG phone. Afterwards, press both volume buttons and insert the data cable into your phone simultaneously. (Note: your device should be of samsung otherwise the Odin application will not recognize your device. Your data cable should be connected to pc to enter Odin mode). Then a blue coloured screen will appear. You have click the volume up button once and you will enter Odin mode.
Thanks!

B.S! Done that like 10 times now, no OEM option still.. I have all the passwords and everything, still can't get it rooted ...
Hello i was needing the stock firmware to my s21 SM-A215U A215USQS6BUL1 TMK im actually try to downgrade it for android 11 to android 10 and if possible put TWRP on it if anyone could help me out i would really appreciate it thank you
Mi Unlock status stuck, keeps saying "Connect to network and try again" while net is
I'm trying to activate Mi unlock status on my old redmi3 so I can unlock the bootloader using their tool, but every time I press the button it 1st says "Preparing to add account and device.." then near instantly " Connect to network and try again" (and if I try with no net then the 1st message doesn't show). The phone is tied to the Mi account, I know for sure since now every time I reinstall the ROMs it tells me is tied and I need to enter the Mi account password, its only Mi unlock status the doesn't and keeps the Mi unlocker from unlocking my bootloader.
Backstory:
So I have a redmi3 (ido) with android 5.1.1 bought in 2016, finally decided to try and update my phone from the ****ty vendor ROM (MIUI 6.9...smt) that had the updater bugged (the app couldn't also connect to net to check) and Mi unlock status missing, flashed MIUI 9.6.2.0 from the official site using their tool which fixed the updater (but now I can't downgrade) and now has Mi unlock but as I said it doesn't work.
What I tried so far:
-Log off Mi account and log in through the Mi unlock status (also tried using phone number as id)
-Change location to China or Indonesia then try again (tried both)
-Make sure the phone is the only device tied to the Mi account
-Enable "Find device" then use it to locate the phone (it was very accurate)
-try while having only Wi-fi or while having only mobile data on (tried both)
Here is some more info of the phone:
MIUI version: MIUI Global | Stable 9.6.2.0(LAIMIFD) (can also flash 9.6.1.0)
Android version: 5.1.1 LMY47V
Android security patch level: 2017-01-01
Baseband version: FAAANUZM-1.56482.1.63385.1_V013
Kernel version: 3.10.49.perf-g13b30f1
It also lets me enter in fastboot and EDL mode.

Buddy I'm the one you talked with on the Mi community forum so you already helped me : D
Only reason these are still up is that I couldn't find a delete button here : )) . Appreciate trying to help others in our similar situation tho
I am facing the same issue. The version of the ROM is exactly the same as the InowHateXiaomi's.
However, the method above doesn't seem to work. The XiaoMiTool V2 doesn't download the Chinese ROM.
I tried whatnot but cannot add the device to my account so that I can unlock it.
have tried this method..it tries to download the ROM but failed. dunno what wrong with my devices anymore.
Have you tried to
- install adb and fastboot;
- enter fastboot mode and fastboot oem unlock to unlock bootloader first?
it is not working, toker error or something...

even did accident the phone reset to factory defaults by fastboot lock and then window appeared to enter xiaomi account pass , thx god i had backups in google etc.

Same here, where to report this problem?
change Your region to asia close to china or china, and then register once again using vpn set as You were in asia - then it should be ok, no waiting for old phones, I noticed they are blocking central EU or even west but asia is treated differently
i use this method but still dont solve anything, its say missing coockies or anything
