What do you mean active bootloader? Did you mean locked bootloader? How did you manage bricking device with locked bootloader anyway?

Im trapped in the start loop, and i want to try active bootloader to flash the phone. I think its a soft brick that could be fixed installing a new ROM. I already tried by EDL mode but is necessary a authorized Mi Account to do this :/

Using the special cable to flash successfully with miflash but stuck on mi logo

I've got a mi 5s plus with a locked bootloader and i read that you can use the special cable and the qualcomm mode to flash a rom with miflash.
I've tried the global stable and china stable with both saying success in miflash. but when i go to start the phone it doesnt start on the first press. then on the second its stuck on the mi logo.
i think im able to get to fastboot/recovery mode but as my bootloader is locked i dont think that matters.
How are people flashing with miflash with a locked bootloader. I've tried so many times with the same outcome.
any help would be appreciated.
Anyone? The phone just seems stuck in EDL mode...... ive successfully flashed it over 15 times now but it wont start up.

I'm not aware of any special cables, the first thing is to unlock your bootloader, you can use this process (http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/how-to/unlocking-xiaomi-mi-5-bootloader-t3336243)
After that you can install any rom

Thanks I suppose this is the way I might have to do it. Is there a way to lock the bootloader after flashing so that Android Pay and my work apps still work?

Do you want to relock the bootloader or you want to let it unlocked?
I would keep it unlocked and skip the black screen if possible...
I'd like to keep it unlocked since I need root, is it possible to remove it somehow?

I don't think that this is possible to do, even changing the splash logo you can't do that. You could try to relock the bootloader but I never tried doing that on a custom ROM, only on the stock one. I don't remember if after relocking the bootloader with the bootloader status as relocked the initial boot menu is shown. Anyway you could try. I suggest the mauronofrio's tool if you're on Windows. If you are on Linux you have to use the adb and fastboot commands

I assume [re]locking your BL on custom ROM will cause hard-brick. I need root so can't lock BL

I never tried it but at the end maybe yes. I don't think hard brick but it depends on what you exactly mean with hard brick (all the people think the hardbrick as something different lol)

I tried this and yes it cause hard brick to my zuk z2 plus. But i somehow make my exit from hard brick.
I used to have a ZTE Axon 7 that used pretty-much the exact same warning screen as the ZUK Z2. For certain ROMs on the device you had to flash a different bootloader, as provided by developers on XDA. I remember in one of the flashable bootloaders, the developer was able to remove the warning screen somehow. So I think it is possible to do this on the ZUK as well. It just needs someone to look into it.

Yeah just a thing, you can now relock bootloader on z2, on specific Roms. I made a guide for it and it works 100%

That sounds great. Although I just went and read your guide and I noticed it says the 5-second bootloader warning will still be there. Is there no way of getting rid of the warning completely even with a locked bootloader?

Unlocked bootloader message

Hello,
is there a way to disable or change the unlocked bootloader message while starting the phone?

You could search online for a solution. Personally, I kind of like it.

This is integral to the bootloader itself and is specified by Android Boot Flow. Removing this involves modifying the bootloader which can result in a bricked device. I strongly advise not doing so.
