Guys, I need some help to confirm the only solution I found for my problem, or if I can still try other solutions.
I bought a Mi5s that already came from seller with the global stable rom. I asked the official bootloader unlock to Xiaomi and has received authorization by SMS. But the unlock application stucks at 50% saying that the device being unlocked is different from the one authorized on Mi account. I looked for some solutions like deleting all the devices in the page i.mi.com, leaving only the Mi5s, but I did not have success. Other solution is flash chinese developer rom
Another solution is to flash Chinese developer rom, to confirm unlock of the device on the developer screen and then to use the official tool unlock. But I didn't find any way to flash the developer rom. I've tried using Chinese PC Suite, fastboot mode, MiFlash, and all says that the rom I am trying to flash (Chinese) is different from the rom of the device (global).
The only solution I found is to buy a deep flash cable and flash the developer rom in EDL mode. Or hope to launch the global developer rom for Mi5s, which so far we have no prospect in the short term.
Do you suggest I try some other solution? Thanks in advance.
Try logging into mi cloud with your mi5s using the same account you used to asked the request to unlock.

Already had done it, no success
From http://en.miui.com/thread-482266-1-1.html
Under settings/additional settings/developer options, click Mi unlock status. Click add account and device. Your device will now be automatically added to your Mi account.
Next,enable OEM unlocking and USB debugging under developer options.
Then connect your mobile to the pc or laptop while on fastboot mode. Unlock again. This time, it will be successful!
Same problem. Can't unlock my Mi 5S on Global Stable firmware (V8.0.3.0). And can't flash to China Developer firmware.

Global Stable firmware doesn't have any Mi Unlock status parameter on Developer Settings.

Sorry i was on mobile and understood you badly.
According to this:
http://en.miui.com/thread-202290-1-1.html
You should have that parameter no matter you are at global or not, but if you don't you should flash a developer version, instruction at the same page.
Before you say "i can't flash developer rom", did you tried the updater app to flash it?
Force flash your rom using special cable to enter fastboot to install. I dont know its detail, but the installation called Deep Flash using deep flash cable sold on ebay

I had similar problems and I was also trying to figure out what to do to unlock bootloader on Global stable rom. The amount of people having the same problem where unlocking app stops at 50% is overwhelming ,judging from the comments found on google, but the info what is the actual problem is next to none. Suggested solutions looks to me like voodoo and most if not all probably doesn't have any impact on successful unlocking. As the Xiaomi unlock app is just a wrapper for fastboot executable I've checked what kind of commands are being send to the fastboot when you click unlock here they are.
fastboot getvar product
fastboot getvar soc-id
fastboot getvar soc_id
fastboot getvar board_version
So I've checked if I will actually get any info from bootloader if I send those commands manually, and with no surprise I didn't get any. So this was the problem at least in my case. Some kind of connection problem I'm not sure where exactly the fault is, probably drivers but try to issue those commands manually from command line I can bet you will not get any info from the phone. What to do if that's the case remove and reinstall drivers, this is what has worked for me. Good luck
Had the same problem. Got it solved today. the bad news you need a deep flashing cable, good news you can make it yourself.
Here is the guide:
http ://en.miui.com/thread-310325-1-1.html
http ://en.miui.com/thread-299790-1-1.html
I have unlocked 4 mi phones with no difficulty. Some of them with fake/seller ROM. Once you got permission make sure you have done all things right before preceding to Unlock. Usually it's all about loading the right driver for Xiaomi phone. Using default windows driver is not working. As it's not Microsoft signed driver you have to start windows in insecure mode.
You have to login in your mi account both on PC and on phone with SIM card ind.
Check that phone is verified settings/mi account on your phone.
Best luck
Something is with drivers for your phone. I have the same problem...than i delete drivers and than they automaticly reinstall and evarything works.

Follow the guide that I posted to make the cable(first link), install all the drivers and software needed (second link).
After successfully putting the phone in deep flash mode you need to update Qualcomm drivers (under device manager it must appear as com3 or com10 port after that).
Then use Mi Flash tool to flash Chinese dev rom (http ://bigota.d.miui.com/7.1.20/miui_MI5S_7.1.20_229fa68558_6.0.zip). If the flash fails the first time reboot the computer and try again.
After that sync connect your MI account to the device, enter Dev mode and you will find OEM Unlock option.
Not easy but it works.
Good Luck!

I tried all the possibilities described, that do not need flash developer rom using a deep flash cable. I changed drivers and everything, no success.
In time, I already ordered a deep flash cable here in Brazil. For my part, I thank all fellas who tried to help me but gave up trying anything else. As the title of the topic, my device is currently virtually impossible to unlock in the normal way.

I have same problem to unlock Mi5s before but then realize that you need to update driver on your PC from Keadcom (or samething) into Marshall London Bootloader and it success.
Now my Mi5s uncloked officially.
I just use same Mi account which has permission to unlock my previous device which is Mi5.
No need deep flash cable, just normal cable can do.
Hope this help.

Unfortunately this this did not help. My assumption is that 8.0.3.0. Global stable needs ROM-internal permissions, which are currently missing. (In fastboot mode ADB is able to communicate to the phone, so it is not a driver issue.)

rom booting problem
hello guys i have a xiaomi mi 6. I got it from china and wanted to change to a global rom. I started all the proccess and when I tryied to select the rom i pressed the global stable one and it started downloading and installing the global developer rom. When it finished installing I started the device and when i selected the language the phone started rebooting and didnt stop doing that. then I trying to put an other rom to the phone and it didnt let me because i didnt have usb debugging enabled and i couldnt enable it because the device wasnt able to open further than the lock screen. I tryed unlocking the bootloader but me account wasnt linked with the device any more so it wasnt possible. I somebody help please. I am not able to use my device.

Ah but to change from China to global ROM or the other way requires unlocked boot loader...
Otherwise stuff like this happens.
The boot loader can be relocked again after the process.
Since the boot loader is locked there is less chance to solve the problem as you won't be able to flash twrp or use fastboot to flash firmware to the phone.
Another solution will be needed
That exactly happened to me.
I unbricked my phone with testpoint method.
It's easy procedure but you will have to open up your phone..
I Did it and never opened a phone before, its about open it and link 2 dots with a wire or something, and Then it goes to download mode and allows you to use mi flash and flash mi6. I recommend chinese developer rom (it will allow you to unlock bootloader afterwards)
Watch this russian guy do it, he makes it easy it took hours for me just search "mi6 testpoint" on YouTube
I got it fixed thank you guys

If we unlock bootloader and root would we lose system updates and if relock bootloader would we lose root?
Hello,
I have a Redmi Note 8 pro (China version). I unlocked the bootloader and flashed the Global ROM. Unfortunately, the phone didn't reboot and it is now stuck with message "this ROM can't be installed on this device".
I realized afterwards that many other users had the same problem. Now it is impossible to flash the chinese Rom again (I get the CRCLIST flash error).
I believe my only option now is to re-flash the China stock ROM using the EDL method and an authorized Xiaomi Account. Can anyone help me do that?
If anybody has other suggestions, that would be really helpul.
You may flashed lower version of miui. If you can enter into fastboot mode, flash with latest China miui, then install TWRP, then use TWRP to flash global rom. I used twrp here and it works for my china phone, now im on global rom.
Just my 2 cents:
1. Always flash stock ROM via fastboot. ALWAYS use option "clean all". NEVER use option "clean all and lock"
2. Make sure the ROM's folder path is not containing space characters. Several stupid errors can come from this.
Ex: C:/this_is_the_rom_path
3. Use USB2.0 port from your PC. Better plug the device into USB2.0 rear port.
I couldn't make any of my USB front ports to work. Only the USB2.0 rear port.

Unfortunately I believe that's precisely the mistake I made... Now the bootloader is locked again and I cannot unlock another time because I have no access to the phone. Mi Unlock Tool says "please add your account in developer options > Mi Unlock Status".
What happens next then?

Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, I believe the bootloader is locked again now. I can put the phone in fastboot mode, but I cannot flash anything (not allowed in locked state).
If anyone knows how to flash with EDL method... But of course we would need an authorized account to do that.

I remember mi unlock tool will work in fastboot mode. I recommend you to use mi unlock tool which you used first time to try in fastboot mode. It may say: you need to wait xxx hours, then you have to wait. Or it may unlock directly like first time. Since you unlocked first time, it will be bounded into your Mi account already.
If you have fastboot mode available, do NOT too worried, more likely to you have it back. using SP Flash tool with paid auth account is last step.
Could you fix it?
This Is For those Who Stuck At Android 9 In WW Roms With ZS660KL Model
This Method Will Use Raw Firmware so there is risks if you do something wrong and maybe data loss so always backupBootloader Must Be Unlocked
How To Flash Raw Rom:1-Bootloader Must be Unlocked! (To change fingerprint to ww and relock the bootloader to get OTA) If you are already on WW fingerprint this step aint needed or you want to stay on cn fingerprint just skip)
2-Install adb and fastboot
3-Download and extract the raw version you want i will give some below
4- reboot the phone to fastboot mode and connect it to the pc Use Side Port
5-in the raw firmware folder double click flashall_AFT.cmd This will take sometime and no progress will be shown so all you have to do is to wait till the phone reboot or get black screen if you got black screen just hold vol down and power button for some seconds
6-if your Fingerprint is cn Change it to WW With root explorer you can find posta about this step by step (skip this if you are already on WW Fingerprint)

First of all, I just said it was a stupid thing to say because you don't need to unlock the bootloader and you must use the side USB c port to flash via fastboot. Second: learn to interpret proper English because I didn't offend anyone. End of conversation

You will need to enter an command in fastboot mode but be aware backup every necessary things
If you didn't rooted or touched boot.img just use this command in fastboot and the bootloader will be locked again
fastboot oem asus-csc_lk

What if I rooted?
I just followed all the instructions, I dont think I need my phone to be rooted, I dont want it to be rooted. gpay and some banking apps dont work.
I would like to get back to normal though and locked the boot loader, but keep my android 10 update.
I did all this just to update .

You'll need to flash stock boot img if your rom version (to remove root) before locking bootloader
