Hi,
Has anyone tried to unlock the bootloader on their new phone? If so, what was the wait time you were given by Xiaomi? Am curious as recent Xiaomi phones have vastly increased waiting times for unlocking but as this phone is a global model and supposedly developer friendly I am hoping to not have to wait weeks when I receive mine.
Also, as an oem unlock does a full reset, is there any good method for performing a nandroid style backup of all apps and associated settings so if I do have to wait, I don't need to set everything up twice?

not able to apply, after login it just says ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS :/
were u able to apply ?
edit : installed mi unlock on pc then tried, says 1440 hours wtf

AFAIK there is no way to take a nandroid backup without rooting your device. Now if you could root your phone without unlocking the bootloader that might just do.
However there are few exceptions like HELIUM you can try.

WTF, I would be dead by than. I got 30 days.
I used a very old Mi ID, should I create a new account and try or will it mess up the time limit more?

Xiaomi changed the bootloader unlock policy. Now, you can unlock the bootloader after 3 days. I just unlocked mine which was showing 720hours.

Has the oem unlock switch actually stuck in the correct position, it's a stupid switch that reverts itself, when you leave the screen you gotta click it a few times, sorry if you knew that already

so im doing it the unoffical way, after using this guide for unlocking https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/unlock-bootloader-twrp-root-7-2-3-t3359492.
im stuck in a point where it says cant unlock bootloader because OEM is locked, i tried it 2 times while checking it is on in my developer settings.
the device now is soft-brick(i know how to get it out of it), and idea how to unlock the bootloader?
ty, and sry for my english i tend to be confusing sometimes.
EDIT:::: GO TO COMMENT 6, Solution for me was just waiting a couple of days(using legit method)

I have the same problem, I have tried countless times, but it would still show the same error, even though in the past I have performed this method countless times with 100% success rate, but now, idk why this error shows up.. I have a feeling that reinstalling the windows and then following the procedure again might solve the issue, but I dont wanna go through all that deleting and reinstalling stuff.
No need ro reinstalling windows.
Just install adb drivers and confirm u are using same sim card number in slot 1...which is used for login into mi account in phone and pc.

i have all adb drivers installed and working(downloaded the clockwork ones so they are legit working), tried putting in the sim in slot 1 same issue.
it seems like a lot of people are having issues with that bootlocker, it's a shame i was happy to buy this device and now i regret every moment
EDIT:
today it worked, basiclly the solution is to wait, shame they dont mention it themself, no need to insert the sim
Help plz, after 99% , it shows following error(see screen shot).

This is my old acc, i've already unlocked 3s with this account, now i'm trying to unlock note 4, but it shows this error.
Try making new account. When did you unlock thr bootloader of redmi 3?
First, turn that option on.
Second, use an older version of the unlocker, it works without waiting.
The account of the design you logged in HAVE TO BE the same you'll login on the unlock tool + you need the permission for it.

Make a new account
Fix this error by simple steps
Got to developer options, then:
1 > Enable "usb debugging"
2 > Enable "usb debugging (security settings)"
3 > Enable oem unlocking
4 > Then try unlocking tool. Cheers! Hopes this helps.
Make a new account try unlocking and wait for 7 days then again try to unlock. Vollla you have unlocked ur RN4
Use older version of unlock tool.

Voila ....I got success

I've been unlocking my kenzo since day 1 with no hassles. Recently I decided to flash a fastboot rom so solve my proximity sensor problem (which it didn't, ofc). Then I tried to unlock the bootloader to roll back to my previous twrp backup but after trying to unlock, it sticks at 99 percent showing a description in Chinese. Thanks to the recent advancees in technology(!) I could translate it to English.
It says "The phone is not used in the specified time, unable to unlock"
I just ask for permission in the developer options while OEM unlocking switch is on, and after that I reboot into fastboot mode right away to unlock the device. What the heck am I supposed to do?

After 72 hours required by the Xiaomi tool. It is still not possible to unlock the bootloader of my Pocophone F1. I'm with find device enabled, sync enabled, OEM unlock enabled, USB debugging enabled and Mi account connected. If anyone knows how to solve this problem, please tell me.
PS: My ROM is MIUI 10 Global Beta v8.12.7
That's weird. Have you tried unlocking when the 72 hours weren't over yet? Because if you try to it should show the amount of hours remaining. If it never showed that while trying to unlock within the 72h period it might be another problem. Maybe you can run the chinese text trough google translate, with a tool that converts an image to text (don't know of any but they probably exist).

Register your device phone number first from developer options. That might solve it.
In the new version of Mi Unlock says in English that I need to use my device for a few more days to be able to unlock the bootloader. But it does not say exactly how long, slowly I'm trying.

Try rebooting a few times. Add a fingerprint if you haven't already. Sync with Mi Cloud every time after you reboot. These things could add to your "usage score".

You are supposed to use the phone normally after making the request for bootloader unlock. Please also note that you should be logged into your mi account in your phone all the time. If you do that and also do a few syncs as suggested by another member, you are sure to get approved. There is no other way, you have to wait.

I reverted to my old phone after I made the unlock bootloader request and I was not logged in to my Mi account the whole time. I switched on the Poco about 2 weeks later and was able to unlock the bootloader with no problems. The trick for the OP is to not only register your email with your Mi account but also your phone number through settings.
I think that's what he is missing.

If the above methods don't work, then just factory reset your device and repeat the steps! I'm sure it'll work
Had the same problem.
Unbounded my account and loged in again on the phone.
Now the tool works and i'm unlocked...
Try toggling off the OEM Unlock setting then toggle it on again.
I'm facing the same problem, I requested for unlock last weekend, tried yesterday to unlock (as well over the 72 hours) & was notified that I need to try again in 1 day. I also tried the various suggestions here, but nothing helped/worked.

If it is asking you to wait for a day? I suggest to wait for a day, bottomline is there is no alternate to it, as far as I saw, go step by step, shall wait and see, should work fine
Best to insert the sim card to poco phone and using it for there days after bootloader unlock applied.

Hello everyone.
Following is the list of events:
1. Got the China K20 Pro with China Rom.
2. Unlocked the bootloader the normal way.
3. Flashed Indian Rom but accidentally left "Clean and lock" checked.
4. Phone was not booting because it said "This version of MIUI cant be used etc".
5. Tried to recover with MIAssist .
6. Now phone says "System has been destroyed" .
Now when I try to unlock it again it Mi Unlock tool says ""Wait 30 days"
I just want to ask the community.
QUESTION : Will I be able to unlock this phone again after 30 days using the same account I used the first time?
DID MY ACCOUNT REMAIN BINDED TO THE PHONE AFTER THE UNLOCK?
I want to unlock it and flash it with Mi Flash tool.

In theory you should be OK to unlock the phone, otherwise at this point, you would get that error now and not see the wait 30 days to unlock message.
However those people that have done the same as you and posted on here have used the test point method to boot into EDL mode and then flash via an authorised account. I'm not aware that anyway has had the patience to wait the 30 days to see if they can unlock.

I have exactly the same experience with your device last 2 months ago. I just got lucky because it was last days of the month 29th day. Tried to unlock again the on the 1st day of the the next month and unlocking bootloader was successful.
You can still unlock it using the same mi account.
Flashed again indian ROM thru fastboot but just choose clean all.

YES!
1. It was already binded with the mi account the first time i flashed it and experience bricked. No option to boot the system.

That message is just because you can only unlock one phone a month with a standard MIUI account.
Because you've already unlocked a phone this month you'll see that message for any phone you try and unlock before 1st November

For your case yes.
As mentioned above also by other senior member.
If you flashed it and bricked it this October then By November try to unlock it again and hopefully unlocking will be successfull. Then flash again with your preferred rom.

For me also this is happened two days before you need to wait for 30 days or you need to EDL testpoint method. I fixed by EDL testpoint method there is one Russian guy with authorized MI account he did it for $15.

Actually after the bootloader unlock I never signed in with any Mi account. What I mean to say is that after that one time I never messed with the Mi account at all.
And I realllllllyyy dont want to disassemble my new phone . So im gonna take the chance
Ok.. so this is what happened to me some days ago..
•Use old miUnlock tool(to bypass 30days timer)
• Use "MiFlash tool pro" to flash firmware. (you don't need to go in EDL mode because it flashes from fastboot mode.)
Keep in mind do not select 'Clean and lock again' xD
