New in Redmi Note 4 world - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Hi guys... Today I bought this beast(I knew it is a beast.. . ). I read all thread about unlocking bootloader. But I didn't find any post about sure unlocking. Can anybody forward me the most successful bootloader unlocking procedure thread.
Isn't there any unofficial unlocking process like redmi note 3?
BTW mine is snapdragon, 4gb version.
And another question.. .. Why the hell 4gb version in not included in mobile description in this forum?

Hi, welcome.
Yeah, unlocking is the one heck step every Redmi user wanna get rid of.
There's no unofficial way to unlock bootloader on redmi note, xiaomi locked EDL mode down.
Yeah, that's a good choice.
Cuz, redmi note 4 MTK released first before the snapdragon variant, and these forums created earlier than the release of Snapdragon variant, that's why. Btw, does it matter?

Here you will find all the informations:

After unlocking two Redmi Note 4 and one Redmi 4X on the last month, I can basically suggest to:
1 - register an account on MIUI Forum from PC (IMPORTANT: don't use spaces or numbers or symbols in the username);
2 - fill in as much informations (even fake but convincing) as you can into that account, (there is also another page with other informations that you can reach when changing the password from the MIUI Forum web page from PC);
3 - while filling the informations, there should be some forms that asks for Name and Nickname: write in all that fields the same username you used for registration in step 1;
4 - do some activity in the forum: post a couple of answers to some threads, take part in some surveys, etc.
Then on the phone:
5 - enable Developer options (Settings > About device > tap multiple times on MIUI version);
6 - go to Developer options (Settings > Additional settings > Developer options);
7 - enable OEM unlock and USB debugging;
8 - insert the MIUI account you created before from PC (Settings > MI Account) and enable all optional features it asks for;
9 - return to Developer options > Mi Unlock status > Add account and device;
From PC:
10 - go to http://en.miui.com/unlock/ and follow the indications there to asks for unlock permissions (it could pass many days before having the unlock permissions, but doing as I described above, I received unlock permissions in 2 minutes for one account and in 12 hours for another);
11 - after receiving unlock permissions, download and install Mi Unlock from here;
After the first use of Mi Unlock, it will say to wait another 72 hours before retrying for definitive unlocking (in the account that received the unlock permissions after 12 hours, it said to me to wait only 10 hours, but I don't know why).
After you receive the unlock permissions, you don't have to requests it again for that account, but you have to wait 30 days before unlocking another device, plus the 72 hours from the first request via Mi Unlock.
