Hi all, my Redmi Note 5 has just arrived but I discovered I have to wait 360 hours to unlock the bootloader. Is there any method to avoid the waiting time? I have to travel in one week and I can't erase all my data after that. If anyone knows a method or can borrow me his Mi Account with privileges I would be very grateful. Many thanks.

Dear Friends,
I have an opportunity to buy a LG V10 (replacing my Note 4) with an option to return within 30 days. My questions are:
1. If I Unlock Bootloader, Root, and TWRP it, (not sure if it will be on LP or MM), is there a way to completely return the phone to the way I received it, in case I want to return it? If so, can someone point me to the directions?
2. Is it worth replacing the Note 4? If so, why do you think?
3. Bonus question: Anyone try the T-Mobile SIM Unlock from Ebay for this phone ranging from $10 to $17... Does it work? Can anyone confirm?
Thank you for your help in advance! Lookin forward to some responses! ?
I had the note 4, and traded it in for the V10. Honestly I miss having the note 4, and wish I had kept it.
Thanks for the response Bildo, can you comment further on why that was the case?
Any input on my restore question?
*Bump* any help guys?
Just purchased one but not eligible to unlock yet. So I need to find alternative way.......thanks guys!!
I've used https://www.unlockscope.com/ to unlock two ATT note 8's. I've also tried samsungsimunlock.com but those guys are a scam. They have you download some bogus malware to "permanently unlock" your phone. The first one was fast and worked with no hassle. I'm still waiting on the latter to give me back my "100% money back guarantee."
Hey guys and girls.
Does anyone have experience with Funkyhuawei with a phone that Huawei didn't give the bootloader unlock code to?
Preferably a Mate 20 Pro of course.
I'm thinking about giving it a try but I would obviously have no TWRP and no Magisk.

I got my phone from funkyhuawei, 8gb 256 gig model. They say they cant provide the boot loader unlock code as it is locked from Huawei. At this moment in time it is not possible to unlock it.
I used FunkyHuawei for updates for my P20 Pro with a locked bootloader since OTA updates never seemed to arrive and the service works well. Since they only have build 122 currently for the International Mate 20 Pro which I am already on I haven't tried it with the Mate 20 Pro yet.
Bootloader unlocking codes and rebranding aren't going to be offered for this phone and the rooted Mate 20 Pro phones they were selling apparently lose root the first time you update the OS so that was a complete waste of money.
I'm happy with the update part of their service but they don't respond to emails--ever. The best way to get FunkyHuawei updates is via Twitter.
I ordered an accessories bundle from them for the Mate 20 Pro but haven't received anything so far including anything to indicate that my order was ever received, processed or shipped (it's been a week) so the jury is still out on their store. The order was paid for with PayPal so I know they did get my money.
It seems like FunkyHuawei might be a one man operation.
I didn't know that they do sell physical products like a pre rooted device.
However, I did get a very minimalistic reply to my support request.
Since I don't know the service and the price of the root service for one phone is quite high, I don't want to risk spending money for nothing.
I got the redmi note 9 pro and downloaded the unlock tool from mi. I was told wait 168 hours, so i screwed up and tried to do another Gmail i had, so that set me back another 168 I guess? One week later I try to unlock tells me cant unlock wait 168 hours, yes I am binding my account to with a sim and this last time I even left the sim in the whole week.
This phone was bought for development purposes and its useless to me with a locked bootloader. I contacted support considering it had been a week and they told me I was able to unlock it, i try and it doesn't work. 5hey tell me follow directions and if it still does it then its the phone send it back. Everything I try to unlock it sends me back 168 hours, does anyone have any ideas or is there a way around this tool wait bs I'm thinking just send phone back and forget redmi if they have these kinds of issues.
Any help is appreciated

You must use the phone more often within the 168 hours period
Actually, according to redmi customer service
I have to be connected to a network for 15 days continues to bind the account and unlock is what they told me.
I live in the mountains and when I come home I lose signal unless I stand in the exact right place in my house. So my solution was to send the pho e back and get a refund. I am not impressed enough by this phone to deal with the games they want to play to unlock a bootloader . I have better phones to work with. Thank you for your reply though.
New xiaomi rules are so bad. Even I'm not able to unlock the bootloader.
