[Q] Can I still unlock my bootloader?

Hiya!
I've posted some stupid posts before, but this one I really need an respond to.
I am trying to unlock the bootloader VIA SonyEricsson's website. But when I enter the number intro the tele app (*#*#7378423#*#*). And Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status : Says "No".
Can I still unlock the bootloader?
And if not, can I do something about it? (Debranding)
And if I can, how do I proceed?
EDIT : My IMEI is 15 digits...?
Regards, SH4RKI3

i've manage to unlock the bootloader using the steps provided on the SE site.
The IMEI is 15 digits BUT you will have to write only the first 14 digits. (delete the last one)

Contact guys like Jinx13, they'll unlock it

Lost my Sony Bootloader Code: Now What?

Registered and got my bootloader code from Sony last night.
I didn't write it down and now I can't access it. I'm told an email has been sent to me to verify my address but I've got no such email.
Can someone please explain my options. I have searched for a site where I can pay for a code but can't find one.
Help would be appreciated, I'm so close but yet so far!

Hi Spinning_Top,
I think you can just go back through the same steps on Sony's website that you took to get the unlock key the first time... and get the unlock key again. Have you tried it again to see if that would work?

is your phone unlockaable.? not all can be unlocked.

I'm having the same problem, seems like the website is broken. The problem arise before you have any chance of saying what device you have.

Did I bricked my phone ?

Hey guys I'm in big trouble
Short story I tried to update to MIUI 12 and ended up with only bootloader working, I followed this guide getdroidtips.com/guide-flash-miui-rom-xiaomi-devices/#How_to_Flash_Xiaomi_Firmware_using_Fastboot to flash the stock rom but I installed Global instead of Chinese (My phone is chinese), when I boot it says that "this miui version cant be installed on this device, looks like my bootloader have been locked again.
I tried flashing the correct rom with mi flash tool but no success
If anyone has any idea of what I need to do please tell me I absolutely dont know what to do :/
Thanks in advance

You should try to unlock the bootloader again.Remember, you can only re-open with the account you first opened.

Thanks for your response!
I tried unlocking it again but it tells me that I need to add my account in the MIUI settings which of course I can't do.
My phone came with an already unlocked bootloader when I bought it because it's a chinese version with global rom.
Do you think the account needed to re unlock the bootloader could be the one the seller used to unlock it the first time ?

possibly opened with the seller's account,if the seller cannot unlock, the only method is EDL,authorized account is required for this and the back cover needs to be removed.

Ok, I'll see with the seller then.
There's something I don't understand with EDL, what step needs an authorized account?
If I open my phone, short-circuit the pin to enter EDL mode then flash the fastboot rom via Mi Flash Tool will I be just asked to login at some point ?

I tried to connect to account_auth.exe and I get the message "This computer is bound to your PC, you can start now". Does this mean that my account is authorized ?
The differents guides explaining how to check if an account is authorized never show this and I'm not getting that red error message so that's weird

you are getting this error because your account is not authorized.xiaomi services have this account if you find a completely informal service maybe they will help or a quality not offical phone service.The repairers who think that they will repair the device can make the device brick.You should be careful and finally,you can take a look at it, maybe it will work.

Thanks for the advice, I'll look into that

Quick update in case someone is going through the same problem and need some help:
I contacted this guy on whatsapp +7 967 777-15-98, cost me 29usd and the guy had to try like 3 times over team viewer until it worked but in the end it did.
So yeah basically for now the only solution seems to be paying random dudes in Ukraine :/
Let's hope Xiaomi change their policy or someone find a bypass to this EDL authorization bullsh*t

Do you recommend this boy ?, I contacted him yesterday but for not wanting to pay 4 extra dollars I decided to go with another one but he doesn't give me an answer

Yeah it's quite expensive but I can confirm it works, he's the only one I can recommend as he's the only one I paid
If you found a cheaper one it might be worth waiting a bit for him to respond, be sure to Google his phone number to be sure it's not a scam tho

Have you tried with a differen MIUI Account?

@Yamin_bableyk
if it is a used one, it may be that it has already been activated. a second time is not possible. Then you have to contact the seller. He must delete it from his xiaomi account.

You mean it's already been unlocked ?
Because it's not, there's no account other than mine in it.

You are using the most recent version which you downloaded from here?
Apply for permissions to unlock Mi devices
en.miui.com
Maybe even try reinstalling the tool! Also make sure not to use any VPN in the background...

have exactly the same issue with my poco F2 Pro right now. tried all different versions of the Mi Unlock Tool. It always just shows this error. Tried on 3 different PCs with different cables. Don't have VPN. Please tell me if you found a solution.
Have not tried a new Mi Account yet.

I fixed it for myself... Don't know which step exactly helped, but I had removed a lot of Xiaomi "bloatware", so what I did was reinstalling all the standard apps with the tool "XiaomiADBFastbootTools" which I had used to remove these apps. Afterwards I flashed the current ROM again with recovery as described here: https://www.bgr.in/how-to/flash-miui-11-recovery-rom-xiaomi-smartphone-android-10-856737/
Then signed out of MI account on the phone, signed in again. Went to developer options and did the request to unlock again. Then it worked right away.
So maybe the problem is that you are missing one of the necessary miui apps on your phone

you can try to use qr code on mi unlock
i had the same error on my f2 pro

hi guys, question does unlocking bootloader will wipe out all the data? and if so. would you recommend a back up software that can literally back up all apps and app data?

I am having same issue. Unknown error 1004. Device Mi 11t pro.

Same here with RN11_SPESN on 13.0.13
And now?

I had the same problem.It is mainly a device or sim verification problem.If you have unknown error 1004 problem you also probably can't sync your phone number with mi cloud.
Solve:"First create a xiomi account using only email address , don't add phone number yet.Then insert a sim card on your phone in slot one whice you will add later.
Log in in that phone using the same account you created using only email address and add account from developer option>>mi unlock status and don't add phone number yet.Then login to your mi account from mi unlock app on your PC.Then they will ask to add a phone number.Add that phone number of slot 1.Then an sms or call with a verification code will be sent on your phone. Verify .And then try to unlock.
It will work 100% insha Allah.

Add phone number from the mi unlock tool app.
Don't add phone number before that.
You have to verify your phone number through mi unlock tool app.
Follow the instructions properly.
