hi,
I have just bought New Xiaomi Mi Max Prime. I wanted to root but I went through a lot of trouble.
1) I can't root without TWRP
2) I can't install TWRP without unlocking bootloader
3)I can't unlock bootloader without contacting Xiaomi !
note that I don't want to change the ROM or do anything. I just want to simply root my device so I can use some features and Titanium backup to restore my apps from my Samsung Note 4.
can anyone kindly help me with an easy working way of rooting this device because I spent almost a full day looking for an answer trying every possible solution on the web but without luck !
phone version is Global 8.2.3.0
You should unlock your phone first after getting permissions from xiaomi. Apply to unlock and it shouldn't take a long time to approve it
Go to > http://en.miui.com/unlock/
Wait for 2 SMS Codes
Than you need the Unlock Tool BUT you must wait 72 Hours before you can unlock your Mi Max...
I have the same **** here > Unlock Tool says > 53 Hours to wait...
Hello, I am trying to unlock the bootloader of xiaomi redmi 5a without needing the permission of xiaomi I already have the permission but I am not able to unlock the bootloader is mandanod wait 360 hours and when it passes the 360 hours has to wait again and from there it repeats
well man im afraid that this is our new issue with xiaomi phones, they said me to wait 360 hours to unlock it...it sucks alot...hope someone do something to allow us to unlock it faster
I recently purchased a Redmi Note 5 , Global Version, I recently unlocked the bootloader, but wasn't for sure what guide method to use to flash twrp and root... I tried the one click root I found here on the forums, but it doesn't detect my device, even with usb debugging etc... So was thinking maybe b/c it was global and not china? Any help appreciated, thanks.
Install it normally via fastboot. For root, flash magisk. No need to complicate things with tools.
Download twrp from here - dl.twrp.me/whyred

Mine said 360 hours so 15 days but there are ways to bypass that
What are they? I tried different accounts but was faced with the same message.. 15 days.

There's another guide where you sign in with second miui account on phone than sign in with second account on mi flash tool. But I can't create 2nd xiaomi account cause i only have 1 phone number. Xiaomi uses phone number to create account
Hello everybody. Last month I bought Redmi 6 Pro. Then, I wanted to unlock bootloader it to install MIUI10 as it had MIUI8. After procedures, I had to wait for 360 hours to unlock the bootloader. I waited 15 days and then unlocked my phone. After unlocking the bootloader the phone rebooted and while booting I saw Unlocked in the screen. Then I wanted to install official MIUI10 form this link: http://en.miui.com/download-349.html#545. I tried to install using the local update method. However, after an unsuccessful install, my phone shows Mi-Recovery screen with 3 menus:
1. Reboot
2. Wipe Data
3. Connect MiAssisstant
Reboot just reboots to this menu. Wipe data did not help. MiAssisstant didn't recognize this phone as it says it does not support this phone. I tried then flash using MiFlash and it gave an error "Erase boot error", which my research revealed that it is related to bootloader being locked. I used adb in fastboot mode and it shows bootloder being locked. I do not know how this happened as I am 100% sure I unlocked it. Then I tried to unlock again and says I have to wait 30 days.
Is there any faster solution? Why do I have to wait 30 days as I already waited 15 days for unlocking?
My phone is connected to my account.
My MI ID is 1892506370.
Please help me.
Some may suggest EDL but I want my phone's bootloader to unlock, which in turn may solve my problem.
Forgive me if thi post is in the wrong category. I am new.
P.S. I tried all the suggested solution available on the net and none worked.
You have to wait 30 days because you recently unlocked your device, once you unlock a device there has to be a gap of 30 days before unlocking another device (or even same device again)
I had same issue on my redmi 3s prime as i unlocked my bootloader of redmi 6 pro & while flashing miui to redmi 3s prime i accidentally locked bootloader, it showed me 30 days wait, so what i did, i created a new account from scratch & then logged on my redmi 3s prime with that account so i had to wait 72 hours only for binding process & then i unlocked my bootloader
But as your device is dead, i will suggest you either move to care centre they can repair your device through edl method or else wait for 30 days
Mine locked after flashing miuipro. Miflash said I have to wait 30 days because you can unlock 1 device on 1 account once in month. But I used redmi 6 pro toolkit to unlock it. Somehow it bypassed this and unlocked right away.

Aren't you ashamed of putting a trojan in it? SHAME ON YOU!!!!
Are you crazy? What kind of anti-virus are you using? I took this toolkit from xiaomi.eu forum. It worked for me like a charm. I haven't been messing around in it.

Try this one.
So you're crazy. What is this? Any toolkit can be consider by anti-virus as a threat. Mine showed nothing. Anyways, do what you want. This toolkit helped me unlock my phone right away. Believe it or not and wait 1 month.
check once again bro.
Even chrome failed to download it and says Virus detected.
I've downloaded it to phone. Maybe someone did something to it lately. Anyways it worked for 2 months ago.
Wonderful !
Though Windows/chrome shows it as malware/virus.
I managed to download it on the phone and transferred it to PC.
It works like charm.
I unlocked my bootloader.
Download it, before it stops working/someone deletes it.
Thanks for providing the link
See?! Told ya

Hey, friend. Let me ask you a question.
If I unlock the bootloader using the toolkit, and flash India Rom (on chinese phone), can I have problems in future (to install OTA updates etc..) ?
Or is it better to wait 15 days and unlock with the official miflashtool ?
Unlocked bootloader is unlocked bootloader. There's no difference. The toolkit uses miflash unlock anyways. So it's pretty official way. I've used it to unlock second time the same phone in one day. U can't do it officially on one account because you have to wait 30 days. Toolkit bypassed this waiting time period somehow. I don't know what will happen if you're unlocking for the first time. Maybe you will have to wait 15 days like official way. You have to try and let us know. Flashing roms after unlocking is the same.
hello guys,i unlocked my redmi 6 pro but cannot change to global rom,in miflash it says "missmatching device" help me pls
Redmi 6 Pro Toolkit really works to unlock the bootloader for the second time without having to wait 30 days. !!!
Hai..
I have same problem too.. my phone was bricked after miui 10 updated ,then i bring to the store, and they installed china dev rom for my redmi 6 pro, but i wanna bring back my miui global rom.
Now i'd already try with redmi 6 pro toolkit , and i got same message for the ubl.. must wait until 360 days.. any another suggestion..?
this tool unlocked bootloader instantly
This tool unlocked bootloader instantly without wait and unbricked my device. Thank you!
even after using this toolkit and following the instructions im gettin 360 hr wait time...
This tool won't help you skip waiting period if you unlocking your device for the first time. It will help skip 1 month waiting when you want to unlock using same account for the second time. That was in my case.
the archives is either unknown or damage

already download the file..but when decompressing showed that message. what's problem?
I'm trying to unlock my Xiaomi note 8t's bootloader to install a custom rom. I have tried on many different platforms with many different unlocking tools including the official Xiaomi MiUnlocker. I seem to always fail at 99% as it keeps telling me to connect my account in developer options. I have done many times, which is making 0 difference. I have read many threads saying it only works on miui 10 or you have to wait 48 hrs after linking. I have waited a week and nothing has changed and cant find a way to downgrade to miui 10. If I have left any information out please forgive me as I am new to this sort of stuff.
