Hi Guys,
Redmi note 3.
I had unlocked bootloader for redmi note 3, but after that when i tried to flash back the fastboot rom <kenzo_global_images_V8.1.6.0.MHOMIDI_20170122.0000.00_6.0_global> from mi.com for my phone, it is showing me that "This device is locked, activate the device" after complete bootup.
Even Mi account for which it is asking password is not mine one.
Currently my phone bootloader is gain in locked state, and even i am not able to unlock bootloader now.
Bootloader locked by unofficial method.
Please provide some help.
You have to flash using EDL mode with miflash.
Edit:
Try this method:https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/guide-reboot-to-edl-mode-fastboot-test-t3398718

You have to flash via EDL mode. For locked bootloader, you can't flash roms via fastboot.

Honestly say byebye to miui
Any other method? To avoid data loss and bypass lock
Hey everyone! In the past, I have tried to unlock my Redmi Note 3's Bootloader via the official method (yes I have permission), and also fastboot oem unlock command. Nothing seems to work, and I am going to follow some tutorials to get ZCX TWRP on my phone. Provided it works, I need to know some things:
1. Will those tutorials (they all do same thing; flash ZCX TWRP via Mi Flash EDL) unlock bootloader?
2. If not, will I be able to flash custom ROMs like AEX 5.7 via recovery?
3. Can ZCX TWRP be replaced by official TWRP?
Help with getting rid of MIUI (and my locked bootloader) would be appreciated.
Cheers!
Same thing happened to me... I accidentally locked my bootloader while flashing with MI flash. And now mi unlock tool saying "this account couldn't be used to unlock bl" (I too have unlocking permissions ??)
Now I'm stuck with stock miui rom??

I have this same error! Anyway, I'm now on official TWRP 3.2.2-0... Need to know whether it's safe to allow modification of System, and whether I can flash stuff.
Yes you can, almost 90℅ of redmi note 3 users have unlocked unofficially , just dont flash miui rom with twrp

How u know 90% are unofficial unlocked ?
Update: It works
I decided to try for myself, and successfully flashed AEX 5.7. Gapps is giving me some problems but that's probably because I installed the stock zip. Micro will probably be more stable while retaining face unlock feature. Thanks to everyone who helped, and the awesome community.
Because of error current account cannot unlock this device

Get a custom recovery to wipe all partitions out. There might be an easy way out but you'd want to prefer a clean flash after this. And did you use EDL before unlocking?

hmm without unlocked bootloader I can't flash a custom recovery and there is no option to flash a custom recovery using another method(so I used EDL method),
and no I didn't use EDL before unlocking,
I used EDL because I there was no way to flash ROM on my phone!
THANKS, BRO!
SOMEONE RESPONDED!:good:

That is quite a bad state that you have gotten yourself into. If you can reboot into bootloader, you can wipe every partition and flash a fastboot image of MIUI ROM to get it back to work. Remember to be specific about IMG files as they can make/break your system. You have a soft brick now but selecting a wrong IMG file can result a hard brick.
Any Updates ?
My old RN4 is locked & I forgot password.
I don't have access to my MI account.
So any idea how to unlock it ?
Have you installed custom recovery?
No, stock rom only
you can try xiaomi flash tool to flash the fastboot rom
