I flashed MIUI global stable rom on my rn4 snapdragon using twrp and bootloader was relocked. it is normal? It is safe to flash any rom with locked bl using twrp? can i unlock bl with mi unlock without xiaomi permission if unlocked officially first time?
system twrp and fastboot works normally and now i have custom rom restored from nandroid backup
Are you sure your bootloader got relocked?? Please check it through fastboot oem device-info command.

what do you mean about bootloader getting re locked? global builds only remove the custom recovery and dont lock the bootloader i guess.

I'm currently stuck waiting for xiaomi to properly add my device to their unlocking server, hopefully enabling me to unlock my bootloader. (I'm stuck at 50% during the unlock process)
My phone came with the factory installed China ROM. I then installed over this with the Global Stable fastboot ROM via EDL. Would it be possible to pre-root this fastboot image and flash via edl, enabling root with the bootloader still locked?
I am only wanting to root my device once unlocked, so thought this may be possible?
no dm verity in boot img in locked bootloader will refuse to boot your device.simply it will brick your device and end with a heavy paperweight and nothing

I am waiting not going to chance it.
Hi, I have a little problem with my Redmi 3 Pro's bootloader.
When I'm checking status via fastboot command (fastboot oem device-info) it shows it's blocked, but when I'm flashing roms I haven't got bootloop.
Is there other way to check status of bootloader?
What ROMs are you flashing? Some ROMs just don't need unlocked BL.

I can update MIUI Polska via update app but I'm thinking about flash Anik's CM and I'm not sure about my status of bootloader
Hi, frendz pls help me
I have unlocked my bootloader unofficial way without permission from xiaomi, with emmc_appsboot.mbn file replacing in fastboot ROM, now my question is, if i mistakenly flash official xiaomi fastboot ROM without removing emmc_apsboot.mbn file from ROM folder what will happen, will my redmi note 3 brick by this.
Flashing fastboot rom won't brick but flashing miui recovery roms without removing emmc_apsboot.mbn will brick your phone.

Thanks bro, but if my bootloader is unlocked by unofficial way and I flash fastboot ROM in fastboot mode, so will my device still unlocked?

No it will get locked.
Hi!
What happens if you don't have permission to unlock bootloader and you still try to do it using fastboot oem unlock on Xiaomi Phones?
I have already got the permission and I've rooted my phone, so I didn't really try it because I was simply afraid. Has anybody tested that?
Also, if I relock my bootloader again using fastboot oem lock, will I be able to unlock it using fastboot oem unlock or will I have to use MI tool?
Aaaand the last question - I haven't installed custom rom or TWRP - I booted TWRP using fastboot boot xxx.img, then installed SuperSU package. Is it dangerous to lock bootloader with phone rooted? Recovery is still stock, so ....
I already unlocked my device once and flashed a custom rom but due to issues in custom rom, I reverted back to stock MIUI and relocked the bootloader with
"fastboot OEM lock"
Now i can't find any methods to unlock the bootloader again and it shows error "token missing" in ̶m̶i̶ ̶f̶l̶a̶s̶h̶ mi unlock tool when I try to unlock bootloader again.

You must use Mi Unlock not Miflash.
