Simple question, is it possible to unlock bootloader and root after the newest update? I'm asking because coming from other devices there were some problems with such things as system locks on root and stuff.
Yeah u can unlock bootloader and root on any miui version,even latest bow or after 6 months

I'm curious about how to unlock bootloader using official way on rn3p in case I've already unlocked it the unofficial way. I'm waiting for xiaomi to allow me to unlock my bootloader for 3 weeks now and nothing...so i want to unlock it using unofficial way, but I'm curious is it possible to unlock it officially after that?

I have done it the official way.
1. You get the SMS saying you can unlock.
2. Download the miunlock app.
3. Start the program and follow the instructions.
4. If you get stuck at 50% while unlocking try with China stable ROM.
Not everyone is successful in unlocking on global stable.
I couldn't and had to flash China ROM.
If you still have problems wait 2 days and then it should work.
No idea why but for most it works this way when all else fails.
It's easy enough just annoying that the process is not automated with getting the approval etc.

Got my SMS and did unlock, phone said unlocked but it is not, will not let me try again, says words to the effect that it does not need unlocking already done, what a stupid idea this was from xiaomi
I succesfully unlocked my bootloader lastweek via the unoffical way. I flashed a Xiaomi.eu Multi rom with my own language. I removed the emmc file.
Today I received a SMS from Xiaomi that my unlock request has been approved. Now I want to use the offical way to unlock the bootloader, does anyone know if I need to relock the bootloader?

Just reflash China/Global stable rom via miflash. It will relocked automatically. Then proceed to unlocking using China Developer ROM.

Are you sure about this? Won't flashing stock ROM on an unofficially unlocked bootloader brick the device? Or the brick happens only if you flash MIUI ROMs through TWRP?

Brick only happens when you flash miui rom with twrp.
If you flash it using miflash with proper procedure, it will work as I have tested and done it before.

Lets say I unlock it the official way,and later I flash Miui using miflash does it lock bootloader again or no( which would be very weird to me if it does). It's all to confusing, I'm android user 4 years now but first time Xiaomi user and this is all weird to me. Thanks

I'm not sure about that. But i think it won't relocked back as you need to use some fastboot commands to relock the bootloader again. I might be wrong though.
But i suggest you to flash miui rom using the newly modified twrp(which will not require you to modify/flash boot.img) If AND ONLY If you unlock your bootloader OFFICIALLY.
Hello everyone
i want to flash the new beta version with updater app on my phone and i'm in global stabel 8.0.1.0. Did i need to unlock my bootloader ? because in miui forum didn't mentioned that i really need to do it.
no, i went from suspicious shop rom to global dev beta without bootloader unlock.

Hey, I've had my RN3P for awhile now, the wait was so long for official unlock and it didn't work for me so I unlocked unofficial. Now i'm wondering what the difference is between official and unofficial unlocked BL.
I've noticed that my bootloader seems to lock when I flash a firmware, which means I have the flash a fastboot rom to get the phone working again. Is this normal?
Also, I'm planning on updating my TWRP since I think I have a really old version, is there something I should think about before updating TWRP? Can the BL lock if I update? Also should I flash the strix CM twrp?
I looked at this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/guide-redmi-note-3-available-twrps-t3406708
and found the different TWRP versions here, which one do you recommend? The safe v2 or mabe zcx?
I think unofficially the bootloader can relock itself during MIUI updates/installs.
Anyone else that knows something for certain?
My mom is a woman!

About 1.5 yrs ago officially. I have unlocked 2,3 times after that. Currently there is a issue " current account cannot unlock this device" & no one have solution, everybody are waiting for fix. So I am thinking about unofficial unlock.

Try on linux OS. Some say u have better chance to unlock on linux os.
They failed on windows but linux very fast. No wait is required.
If u have linux installed then good.

Well you updated for nothing.
Now you have to temporarily downgrade back to early Oreo. After bootloader unlock, then you can update back to Pie.
Root Sticky everyone should read:
ROOT YOUR V30!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v30/how-to/root-v30-t3927154
Free advice: NEVER upgrade until you know root requisites. In this case you can still do the TEMPORARY downgrade back to Oreo for bootloader unlock with WTF exploit. But what if you couldn't?
You should check before updating to new OS, not after.

Same TWRP for Pie as for Oreo. V30 TWRP dev says it's stable and we're sticking with it.
See WTF instructions for bootloader unlock and root.
Read the Root Sticky, linked above. It has link for WTF bootloader unlock.
What variant do you have? Full Pie KDZ has been released for several variants, but others still waiting.
