I could easily unlock my bl 4 or 5 times with my old mi account. After flashed MiUi 10 Global beta fastboot rom, i can't unlock the bootloader because the counter showing 360 hours? Why? What is the reason of resetting?
So th flashing not only locked your phone, but reserved your unlock timer?

You should have selected clean all only. Xiaomi's servers are up but I think it's still on adjustment mode.

I locked it but did it many times. I could unlock with my old account easily till yesterday. Do you think its a server problem?
they say you could unlock 1 time only per month on an account. If so, you it totally reset. Its in the forum announced. Better read faqs and announcement.
In theory: - Once a device has been unlocked once already, you should be able to unlock/lock multiple times with the same account.
Limitation: - You can only unlock a new device once per month.
Re-unlocking the bootloader
Once a phone's been unlocked, it can be locked and re-unlocked using the same account countless of times, anytime, on any official or custom ROM. The preparations mentioned above are only required for the first unlock.

I locked/unlocked my phone a lot until flashed the global beta 10. Im sure the counter reset caused by that fastboot rom.

Yes but I doing that all the time becuse there was no problem with the unlocking until the miui 10 fastboot...
My old account reseted to 360 hours. I hate this policy. There is no logic in it.

You should have selected CLEAN ALL only on miflash tool. Only fix is to unlock bootloader again. If it doesnt work then flash china rom thru edl. You can try to flash china fastboot rom with locked bootloader w/ mi assistant. Check my thread.

Sorry by dead state i mean not working. mobile goes to Fastboot, or mobile's own recovery but i cant boot OS (miui 10) which i flashed) and i cant flash anyother rom because of "Flash xbl error" since bootloader is locked.

Hey there Xda members !
I've been trying to unlock my Whyred since past few weeks, i don't know what I've done wrong but here's what I've done :
1. Opened Mi unlock page to request for bootloader Unlock permission (but there isn't any such thing)
2.it automatically showed Mi unlock tool and I've downloaded it on my computer
3. Installed Mi usb drivers
4. Ran Mi unlock tool and connected my device in fastboot mode ( I've already binded my mi account)
5. Mi unlock tool detected my device and i pressed on unlock anyway
6.and it loaded up to 99% and asked me to try after 360 hrs
7. After about 16 days i reopened mi unlock tool and pressed unlock
8. It loaded up to 99% and said "Unkown error"
Can somebody suggest me a solution.
Please devs.

Please remove this thread, the problem got solved.
And the solution was?
I've done a factory reset and then again logged in when Mi account and again requested for unlock bootloader and a miracle it unlocked the bootloader. It took me about 40 days to unlock it.
I have recently unlocked my A70's bootloader. Now when I restart my phone, your phone's bootloader is unlocked. This type of screen appears on display for 5 seconds. How to get rid of this?

Bootloader will not get unlocked from settings. You need to use adb shell to unlock any android phone. Unless your phone came with an unlocked bootloader.

That's not the case with Samsung phones. Turning on OEM Unlocking in Developer settings actually unlocks the bootloader

I don't know what you mean. By turning on OEM Unlocking option in Samsung phones you can flash custom ROMS etc.
Option is avaliable straight from developer options no need for adb commands

Hello, I tried following the tutorial that seems to work for everyone
(
) LINK to tutorial.
But my basic problem is that when i try to flash twrp it says " only official binaries can be flashed"
It happened after i enabled OEM unlocking and the phone restarted then i went to download mode before allowing it to restart, thats where it gave me that issue., I want to root my phone.
I am sharing current state of my phone. If somebody can guide me i would be thankful.

your bootloader state is prenormal, still locked. Unlock it and you should be good. There are some files you can flash it keep the prenormal at bay once you get it removed

the prevailing theory is that you have to leave the phone on for 168 hours, after a fresh install, enable dev options, then uncheck the box. The FRP lock will re-enable it self even if you have the OEM unlock toggle switched to off. Reflash your stock firmware in Odin, set the phone up for as much as youd need in 168 hours worth of usage, then do the oem unlock. Then immediately boot to DL mode and flash twrp

there is also another zip file to flash when dealing with the oem unlock to make sure it doesnt lock again. ill have to look for it, but i came across it originally in the Galaxy A8 forum. You might also have to wait 168 hours and then try the toggle again. This 168 hour thing can be a real bugger.

No, the thing is that my OEM UNLOCK is toggled On, which means my bootloader is unlocked.
That should mean that my rmm state should not be prenormal,
But its not like that.
Despite flashing new rom and having oem unlock already toggled on which means unlocking the bootloader,
I am still unable to flash twrp.
What else can i do? Any solution ?

i know the toggle is on, but that doesnt ensure that your bootloader is unlocked. If your rmm state is anything other than prenormal, then its definitely not unlocked.
rmm prenormal has been a bane of the samsung xda corner of the internet for a while now, read this
im betting its the 168 hour issue. dont reboot your phone for 168 hours and toggle it off then back on

only issue that could cause, if it was even going to cause an issue, is reset the time since previous reboot, in which case all that would happen is having to wait 168 hours again if that doesnt work

Hi to all, I just got the F3. I have bad time unlocking the bootloader and need advice.
Sim card with data is inserted.
Mi account is logged to the device
Find device and location are enabled
OEM unlock, USB debugging are enabled and I have applied for bootloader unlock.
Edit: at the end I managed to begin the unlock process saying I would try after 357 hours! 15 days! What is that;

In general 168 hours but sometimes depending on the country and the phone the wait is more or less higher.
I had the case with a new redmi note 7 where the unlocking was done in 36 hours while my poco or my 11t pro took 168 hours, why I don't know.
