Hello.
I just got my phone. I've imported the phone from China, so it's running Chinese ROM.
ROM is: MIUI V7.2,2.20.LHOCNDA
Now there is no Play Store.. I had Nexuses, OnePlus, M8, S6 edge.. And many other Android phones. I've rooted all of them. I am familiar with ADB, I know how to unlock bootloader on Nexus, OnePlus..
I've read trough the Redmi Note 3 PRO forum, and I see there can be problems with unofficial unlock. So I just applied for the official Unlock...
So can I flash the Global ROM with locked bootloader? If yes, how?
Can I root the Global ROM after the flash? If yes, how?
Can I unlock the bootloader on Global ROM?
What is the difference with Global ROM and dev. ROM?
Is there any reliable unlock method besides the official one? I am getting confused reading all of the way's to do it.
Any answerer will be appreciated :good:

Ok. Thanks!
So should flash China ROM and wait for unlock?

if you want Play Store and multi lang you need global rom, but again be carefull with flashing
i don't recommend unlocking but for that you need dev rom otherwise you will get this error "Couldn't verify device at 50%"
As title really, can't really find a definitive answer.
It was a UK Tesco handset but unlocked to all, and still running the standard Moto stock firmware.
Any help would be appreciated.

I need to unlock bootloader and root for that though don't I? I don't want to root as I use banking apps/Sky Go and I will lose those.

You can unlock bootloader, install TWRP and install 6.0 stock rom without rooting.

Thanks for the help man! I'll try this now.
Hi, I need to fix a bricked RN3 Pro for a friend. I don't want to unlock the bootloader. Are there are good ROMs other than the official Xiaomi ones that can be flashed to it? Preferably without the Chinese apps. I started looking through the ROM forum but everything seems to need unlocked bootloader.
The only roms that can be flashed to it on a locked bootloader are the official roms.
Actually I found one here: http://choimobile.vn/threads/locked...bal-xiaomi-redmi-note-3-pro-17-06-2016.67100/
It's SpaceX. The website is in Vietnamese. Does anyone have any experience with it?
Why don't u want to unlock the bootloader on official way? It's easy.. and every thing is flashable after that

It's not my phone, I just want to unbrick it and give it back as soon as I can, so I don't have time to wait for the unlock code.
Also my friend is not the type who cares about custom ROMs, he just wants it to work with no bloatware.

Flash Miui 8 Global stable 8.0.1.0 rom via EDL mode.
Does the miunlock tool not work for black shark 3pro???
as I know, it doesnt, so the only way is using unofficial ways
So xiaomi has officially stopped unlocking bootloader's? Why would anyone bother with them?

no, xiaomi never officially allowed bootloader unlocking on black shark phones
(Mi, Redmi, Poco are all able to use the mi unlock tool)

Which global rom have you got?
I can say I used the guy with the telegram number here on xda and it worked. Took 20 minutes tops, bootloader unlocked on the Chinese model and now have global installed, everything works. Everyone may not want to pay $80 but I did and don't regret it at all.

I have no idea. I have twrp and a unlocked bootloader so if not I can always flash them.
But that said. Everything works and I'm on the latest that I can find online.
So all is good.
Have to say it made a huge difference over the Chinese rom

Stable magisk will work?
Has anyone tried this to convert their ROM and did it work?
So I tried this and it worked, changed Chinese rom to Global Rom, without having to do copy all the code like in the other convert thread.
I moved from UI3 chinese rom to UI2 global, then just had to certify the device to get access to google play!
can one please make a video orpictures about it?!?!?!?
i don't get into that TWRP

Which magisk you are using alpha or stable?

I've tried both versions. but I don't quite understand how it all works... (Sorry google translater)
I used magisk alpha through twrp.
I can't do a video sorry, all I wanted to do was let everyone know that it works and seems to be a lot easier(for me anyway) than the other way of trying to get a global ROM working.
I think I'm too stupid for that
can write me a step-by-step guide ?
its literally a step by step guide in the first post.
you'll need the files from the links provided!
unfortunately it doesn't work for me, no idea what I'm doing wrong
Bootloader unlock isn't required?
My bootloader was unlocked, yes

Hi, I just have a few questions
1. You used the EU Rom from this thread right? And if so are you receiving OTA updates? According to a different thread on this topic, people are having to use the IN Rom in order to still receive OTA Updates.
2. Are apps like Google Pay working, and other functions of the phone like NFC and 5G working?
1. I used the EU ROM, which is .a09 I was on the ui3 Chinese ROM.
After flashing the ROM I have done an ota update and am now on a.17
2. I'm not sure about Google play as I've rooted the phone and this version of magisk doesn't have hide, so doesn't work
Everything else that wasn't working on Chinese ROM ui3 is working.
Vowifi, volte, NFC, Android auto 5g(no switching problem) all now work
I was considering getting a new phone before this, as so many features were annoying me or missing on the Chinese ROM.

Hopefully, my final question,
I can't seem to find a way to unlock my bootloader on ui3, may I ask how you unlocked your bootloader?
The only solution I can find at the moment is to downgrade to android 11 ui2 CN Rom .A24 and then unlock the bootloader through that way since the deep testing app for unlocking the bootloader will not install on ui3 for me.
Thanks in advance!
(ps. I don't have the app already installed, I have checked 5 times already.)
You might need to downgrade back to UI 2 as I unlocked my bootloader using deep test before updating to UI3. (Yeah I looked at that after I had gone to UI3 and it said it was already installed, but couldn't find it or search for it either)
Hi again, what am I ment to do from here? This is after doing the fourth step. @unparalleled82

Depends if you want to root it or not. If not then just reboot and should be on the version you've installed

Well, something has gone wrong. when rebooting it only seems to go to the realme UI recovery I didn't want root so I could use Google Pay. I am not sure what do do now. Should I wipe data, and try to redo the whole thing? (edit: if you are a newcomer and see this message, be sure to look at page 2 (spoiler: it worked!))
