when flashing in Mi Flash you should have used Flash all and Lock
Try it again and it should be fine

I just bought Redmi Note 3 SD. I am running the latest global stable build based on LP. I wanted to move to Global Beta Builds. I tried to flash the recovery zip using updater app. But it always showed "couldn't verify update package".
So i searched a bit. And think it requires bootloader to be unlocked first. But I have some doubts :
1) After unlocking bootloader can I flash global beta recovery rom zip using updater app ? Or fastboot is the only method even after unlocking bootloader ?
2) If I am stuck at 50% during the unlocking process, will the phone wont boot not anymore ? Or I can boot it just like it was before ?
3) Does data gets wiped during bootloader unlocking ?
Thanx in advance...

1. Any rom that supports flashing through recovery can be flashed through the recovery.
2. If you are stuck at 50% while unlocking your phones boot loader, don't worry. Your phone will boot and work just fine.
3. Nothing will be wiped after unlocking your phones boot loader, everything stays the way it is.
I hope I answered your questions

And you don't need an unlocked bootloader to flash the beta global MM ROM. You can use miflash and flash the phone in edl mode. If you take a backup in MIUI first, you can restore all your apps and data too. If you're even braver, you can replace the stock recovery image in the ROM with ZXCTWRP at the same time so you can flash SuperSU, Xposed, etc. all with a locked bootloader.
Download an older dev build like 6.8.18 which should work through the updater app, then you can go to 6.9.29 after that.

I don't know. I'm perfectly happy on the MM beta and have no desire to go back to LP.
Good luck.
Just got my RN3 SD last week and I'll share what I encountered

No, you don't need unlocked bootloader to flash latest Global beta. What you need to do is boot to EDL mode and flash Global Beta through MiFlash tool.
TIP Make sure fist that your device is properly recognized by your PC through correct drivers. Usually the MiFlash drivers are sufficient but I had problems with the MTP driver so I had to search the internet for this

I don't think so since your error seem to depend on the updater app, and not the bootloader
TIP If you do decide to unlock bootloader, try to unlock in your current ROM first before flashing Global Beta. In my case, I applied for permission on Day1, Got my permission on Day 3, Failed to unlock until Day 5 where I EDL flashed Global beta and I was able to unlock by then. I think I could have unlocked faster if I EDL flashed Global Beta earlier

It will still boot. You just need to hold the power button long enough (you're in fastboot when unlocking)

No. Data gets wiped when you flash something in fastboot/EDL or when you wipe it in custom recovery
Other Info
ROM that came with the Phone is official MIUI 7.2.3
Global beta I flashed is 6.9.22
After unlocking bootloader, I flashed ZCX TWRP
After Flashing ZCX TWRP, I flashed xiaomi.eu ROM 6.9.29 and got bootloop. To fix this I had to flash LazyFlasher.zip after xiaomi.eu ROM and then did a factory reset via TWRP

Tester

Yeah but i didn't wanted to move into this miflash stuff right now. I had bad experience with my last phone mi3 when i flashed it using miflash. So i want to just move to Global beta MM build using stock recovery..

I also got the permission 1 week back. But i read that it takes usually 1 to 2 weeks to get the data updated in their databases. And i don't want to go to EDL and MiFlash stuff yet. I had bad experience with Mi3 when i used MiFlash

u have misconfiguration in emmcappsboot.mbn. or corrupted *.mbn,either reflash with recovery or or unlock your phone again.I think u have not selected the same firmware which is given in procedure to unlock unofficially but take the same aboot
u should contact some devs who bring miui update zip for unofficially unlocked phones.hit thanks if I helped.
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
I have purchased redmi note 5 chinees version from a unauthorized shop. when i checked my miui version it says global stable 9.5.13.0.0 . and also showing bootloader unlocked . but i didn't get any update .later i found out that was a custom rom. so i try to flash with mi flash tool but the flash didn't take because the bootloader is still locked which i found from fastboot command but the phone showing bootloader unlocked. then i flash 9.6.4.0 global with EDL Mode .this time the flash done but
when turned on my device after flashing it still showing the previous mi version and nothing has changed
when i flash chinees rom 9.6.4.0(china stable) on it again the version showing the same 9.5.13.0.0 stable
the version remains the same after booting the device.
can anyone tell me whats the problem??/
and whats the solution of it plz???

Hi!
Facts are:
1. Your rom is fake.
2. You have to unlock your bootloader to flash stock or custom rom.

No, but you can lock it back like nothing ever happened, even if you let the bootloader unlocked you will not lose the warranty
simply go authorised mi service centre and asked him to software upgrade.and they will update your miui version 10.06.thnk you. i was already experienced same type of problem in past.:good:
otherwise you don't update your miui unless you unlocked your bootloader

Try downloading the file and use the system updater and select the downloaded file.
Normally it is compatible to stable stock rom update. However, you are downgrading the android version from 9 to 8.1 .. it may not allow you done. If allows, then it might wipe data and internal too.
Thanks

download the 10.0.6.0 fastboot rom flash it via Mi Flash Tool
Unlock your phone
Flash 10.0.6 with miflash tool( fastboot mode )
After flash with flash tool your phone will be locked again
so is there only one version of 10.0.6.0 ?! i am a previous samsung user and they used to release different official roms according to region and phone
I have received the 10.0.6.0 on my locked bootloader. Indian version here if that makes any difference ?
bootloader unlock, miflash will not work.

Since you already unlocked the bootloader, so no problem for flashing flash boot ROM into the phone, backup your phone into external SD card.
