Unlock OEM is not allow (in setting). And I can't unlock bootloader

I dot no my friend but, ota today ? New ota ?
Or it this your first boot on new tablet?
Anyway good luck, wait for pro advice , maybe with PC/cable.

No, I have not solved the problem. The tablet is not loaded, and I can't flast it.
My advice: Allow OEM unlocking the bootloader in the Setting

sad...

I need to find an OTA update on flash recovery. But I can not find it ((

are you using the new unlock command.?
you may also want to update the sdk or whatever adb/fastboot package you use.

you were saying that pixel c would not unlock and i was asking if you are using the new unlock command. the pixel c uses the nexus 6p unlock
command. not the old one.
it is no longer "fastboot oem unlock"
it is now for pixel c "fastboot flashing unlock"
you need to update your fastboot/adb package you use in case the one you are using does not recognize the new commands.

Unfortunately this does not work (

Maybe you need to install ADB USB driver manually.
Once fastboot is working .. fastboot flashing unlock

generally that message is shown when the allow oem unlock switch in developer options is not set on.

yes...
but I can not set it in Setting, because my device is not bott

well, if you still have the device then one possibility is to post your issue to this group,
https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!forum/chromium-os-discuss
to see if there is a flag in the vbnv that can be set with fwtool. [similar to fastboot issue] to get it to boot.

How to unlock the device?

HI there,
I get same problem, not possible to active Debug & Dev on android setting, because the tablet dosnt load to android !
I tried with Nexus Root Toolkit no success also

Virtually impossible to unlock bootloader

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.

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.)

i can't boot my phone and i need your help!

i really need your help, please help....
i rooted my phone...
(i rooted it with magisk) buy a while after i wanted to revert the phone, and to use the stock operation system without root
i used TWRP to wipe anything (besides internal storage, where the oxygen os was), and OEM unlocked my device (using command prompt)... after that, i wanted to install the software using the OnePlus recovery, but than i noticed that i have forgotten to enable USB debugging and OEM Unlocking (this was the mistake, because now i dont think i can do anything with the computer... when i want to install the operation system using the command prompt (fastboot flash system) i cant...
(erasing 'system'... FAILED (remote: Erase is not allowed in Lock State)) ans when i want to unlock the OEM the same thing happens, an error shows up ()
i attempted to enter the recovey... but there is another error: your device is corrupt. it can't be trusted and will not boot
visit this link on another device: g.co/Abh)
i have no clue what to do, i dont have a cellphone right now and i have no hope... it is a new one, but it 20 days ago and im so upset...please help!!a

Is your phones bootloader is unlocked or what??

locked
it is locked (i mean i can do nothing becuse USB Debugging and OEM unlocked are not ticked in the settings)

Don't worry too much, the newer snapdragon devices such as the op5t are ubrickable. Try to search something like "unbrick a hard bricked phone with snapdragon soc"

TNX... i managed to solve it, it was bricked

Unknown error unlocking bootloader!

Hi folks,
I have waited more than 788 hours to unlock my Note 5 Pro bootloader. When I have connected connected the device in fastboot, mi unlock tool has not recognised my device. I had to reinstall adb drivers and reboot the device multiple times. Now it is recognised and started the process of unlocking the bootloader. The tool is struck at 99% and after few minutes it says "-1 unknown error unlocking the bootloader"
Using the same account, sim and device. Please help.
Thanks
Update:
Unlocked the bootloader successfully. Issue was with the fastboot drivers.

I have unlocked the bootloader successfully. The issue is with the fastboot drivers. Try rebooting in fastboot mode and connect to computer. Under device manager check if your device is recognised as adb interface or bootloader interface. If it's adb interface then you are good to go. Else click update driver and select the 2nd option to update from computer. Again choose the second option to choose from a list and in the list select adb and click next and proceed. Now your device should be recognised as adb interface. Now try unlocking.
