Mi Unlock (windows) for Mi A3 Error: Couldn't unlock. Request parameter error
Hello, even I am facing the Same issue please asssist.
Thank you.
Same here: Redmi Note 5 Pro and the last global stable Miui 11 Rom.
I have enabled in dev options oem unlock, USB-Debugging and bind my phone to Mi Account (unlock status).
I saw the popup, that the phone is bind to my account.
Mi Cloud find my Phone.
The Phone is connected with USB 2.0 Port.
I have try the newest and older versions of the Mi unlock tool as admin.
Every time the same at 99%: Couldn't unlock => Request parameter error
In the Device Manager (Win10) I find Android Phone and ABD Bootloader Interface.
I think it looks good.
I have attached the mi unlock tool log file.
Where is the solution and sorry for my bad english.
It is not my native language.
Thank you for comments :good:
I had the same problem when I used my second phone as usb tethering network connection, but I fixed by using it as wifi hotspot. The adb thingie was not "locked" or if you have other devices connected via usb, it get the error, I believe.
Try downgrading mitools and miui
Today I could unlock the device by the first try, with my brothers pc (old amd apu/win7).
Thanks and have a Happy New Year!
If someone is still wondering, just connect your phone in fastboot and open Minimal ADB and Fastboot. type this "fastboot flashing unlock" and hit enter. This did the job for me.

very late reply but you should google how to open fastboot in your phone, then connect it to your pc and download platform tools, open cmd cd into the directory w that exe connect your phone and type the commands above
I solved this issue by simply rebooting my Poco F3 and then booting back into fastboot and clicking unlock

I bought a refurbished Razer phone one from the official razer eBay page, and it's stuck on download mode. I haven't tried flashing anything, I haven't even ever been to the home screen. What can I do to fix this?
Get the Google USB Driver and make sure your Razer phone is installed with these drivers
https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb
Get Android SDK Platform Tools for latest ADB and fastboot tool
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
Open command prompt to that folder and run these commands
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
fastboot set_active a
from what i've gathered from other threads with similar problems, that's the jist of it...
It says "Waiting for any device" the problem is that it's not recognized by the computer.
Thank you ! Same problem. This is halp! after first run, works. Question, can I block it now? and how please... fastboot flashashing lock ?
Now I can block back? fastboot flashashing lock ?

Hello. Same problem. ( I bought a refurbished Razer phone one from the official razer eBay page, and it's stuck on download mode. I haven't tried flashing anything). It helped me. Now I can block back? fastboot flashashing lock ? Please, sorry my english...

"Find the driver here:
https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/latest_usb_driver_windows.zip
unzip the files/folder to a location you will remember
Follow the instructions below, point the windows driver update to the .inf file in that folder then driver will install. Make sure you have the latest Android platform tools, the link is also in the PDF below.

open a command prompt from within the Android sdk folder while the phone is still in download mode (phone stays and reboots to download mode through each process below making the process fairly easy)
type: fastboot devices
your phone should show up once drivers are installed correctly
type: fastboot flashing unlock
use the phone vol + - and power to select yes
phone should stay in download mode
type: fastboot flashing unlock_critical
use vol + - and power to select yes
phone should stay in download mode
Download the firmware image below or if you want to try the following command type: fastboot set_active a && fastboot reboot
to see if the phone boots, not sure if all the phones have Android installed. One poster below seems to and also seems to have his bootloader unlocked. This won't be the case for everyone. If phone does not boot continue downloading the firmware to install it

unzip all the files and put them in the android sdk folder, from the same command prompt if you're on Windows
type: flash_all.bat
For Mac type: flash_all.sh
Will take a few minutes but firmware will install. These instructions are for RFD members that do not either 1) want the hassle of RMA or 2) take a chance at voiding the warranty (any phone flashing via adb is frowned upon by Razer)"

Repeat the unlock commands using lock instead of unlock but in reverse order so:
fastboot flashing lock_critical
fastboot flashing lock
again you must place the phone in download mode (powered off...hold volume down key down...plug in) between each command and follow the onscreen instructions.

What you are trying to do? Just switch from Chinese to Global? or your device is bricked now?
What did happen after that you flashed the Chinese recovery ROM?
What modes do you have available?
Did you unlock bootloader previously?

Fastboot flashing commands won't work if you have bootloader locked.
Did you unlock bootloader previously and probably get locked again?
Did you enable all the proper options on Developer section, i.e. USB debugging and check if device is recogniced on adb commands?
What do you get with "fastboot getvar all"?

And you said you enabled USB debuging?!? you didn't. First enable it under development tools.
MAKE SURE YOUR USING RIGHT ADB/FASTBOOT TOOLS AND DRIVERS.
After 'adb reboot bootloader' use 'fastboot devices'. You can change usb cable and if you still get errors try using usb hub.
If all above fails than try it on WIN7 PC.

I think you are not properly booted to the proper state while you're trying certain commands. Just to be clear; adb works while your device is power on and fastboot commands will work only while your device is in fastboot mode not while on adb mode. A way to be sure that you are doing properly is enabling USB debugging first but while connected device with PC, a prompt will appear from device screen and then tap on "always allow", then you have to type "adb devices" and follow step by step, if device is recognized you can go to the next step with "adb reboot bootloader" then in fastboot you have to see the bunny otherwise is not properly in fastboot mode, then you can follow with "fastboot devices" and so on, keep in mind that any command will work until device is properly recognized.

Just trying to determine what your words exactly mean when you say "after in fastboot mode it doesn't boot in adb mode." ... without entering in more technical insights adb works when device is on, no sense to boot to fastboot to try to boot to adb after that (?)
If you can boot to fastboot what you have to try firstly is unlock bootloader or be sure that is already unlocked using
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
if your device is or get unlocked then you can try to flash or just boot to a custom recovery but if you can't determine until now if your device is really unlocked then you couldn't go further.
The hardware method to enter to fastboot is from a device off; pressing both pwr and vol down buttons but if the bunny is not displayed probably you didn't really get fastboot mode.

Do yo use WIN10? Find PC with Win7... and install adb/fastboot app and drivers. Than try..
Is your system working now?
Just unlock your bootloader and install OrangeFox recovery than you can flash whatever you need.
Problem solved.

TWRP can't bypass encryption, when you have no access to read data (0mb) then you have to format it, to avoid that is always recommended use OrangeFox, just for future reference, if you understand that you can flash OrangeFox through TWRP for better experience.
Also you can use this tool to help you to automate some stuff https://github.com/Szaki/XiaomiADBFastbootTools
Bricked with a locked bootloader - "This MIUI version can't be installed on this device"
I can get to "adb sideload" and fastboot, but the bootloader is locked
Can I unlock the bootloader with EDL? Can I access EDL with an EDL-cable? Or do I need to open the phone and short the EDL pins?
Can I recover the phone from a Linux computer? Or do I need Windoze?
Is it even possible to un-screw this phone?
Any help appreciated.

1- Checking if this problem is still a problem with custom ROMs; it is, and thus I believe it to be a hardware fault.
2- Done testing, re-install stock stock ROM, lock bootloader via adb; bricked phone.

ok, you can run edl mode but its no good for you, its already locked by xiaomi, ( go ing to fastboot mode and give commands something like this " fastboot boot edl")
* do you see padlock lock sign when you go to fastboot mode
* try to flash vbmeta in fastboot mode
* try again to flash correct version miui fastboot rom with mi flashing tool with out selecting lock bootloader
I can get to fastboot by holding power+vol-down. There's no lock icon.
On Ubuntu, I don't think fastboot is compiled to support rebooting into edl. I tried editing the source, and I'm not sure if I did it right, but the binary I built did not boot the phone into edl.
Using these commands:
Code:
fastboot flash vbmeta /tmp/platform-tools/vbmeta.img
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta /tmp/platform-tools/vbmeta.img
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta /tmp/platform-tools/vbmeta.img
They all give the same result:
Code:
target reported max download size of 804274176 bytes
sending 'vbmeta' (4 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.006s]
writing 'vbmeta'...
FAILED (remote: Flashing is not allowed in Lock State)

Did you found a way to fix the phone or unlock bootloader?
You have 2 ways to get out of this situation.
1. Try to unlock the bootloader with the Mi account you used last time.
2. If couldn't unlock, then switch to EDL mode. Use a no auth programmer to flash the correct variant fastboot ROM and the device should boots up. Then add account again and wait for 168 hours for unlocking.
Since we've got no auth programmer for Sm6125 we could use EDL mode freely.
Hi there @go vegan , have you already fix your phone again? because i also got the same situation on my redmi 6. or is there anybody who can help? thanks
Hi all add me to the list with a k20pro.
The device was unlocked at the start, i got MIUI 12.5 global and flashed with miflashtool.
but wipe and lock was active.
now the phone comes up to the recovery menu and says the miui version is not for this device.
When I try to flash to another version, miflashtool says the device is locked,
when I try to unlock while using the account the device is registered in, miunlock says go to settings >developer options> mi unlock status.
Gave it to a repair shop for 1.5 months and nothing. I live in Iran so no authorized service centers here.
I have access to fast boot mode and recovery.
I tried xiaomitoll V2 which had a specific question asking if my device would show This MIUI version can't be installed on this device in phone is bricked option. It goes to get china official Rom but then errors.
I'm a noob here so any help would be great, tnx.
I have encountered the same problem a few hours ago with my beloved Redmi K20 Pro. My heart became gloomy thinking that I have no way left other than having to take to an authorized service centre where they will rip off the back cover. But then I stumbled upon this simple solution that took me a minute or two. This is how I solved it:
Entered the fastboot mode
Connected the phone to my laptop using the USB cable
Opened the official Mi Unlock Tool and logged in with my Mi account, and
Clicked on the beautiful UNLOCK button!
Boom! The phone is back to its vibrant life! I'm just happy again!

The solution to the problem is simple.
into fast boot mode,
Run unlock again!! Obviously it's locked. When unlocking is executed,
the same screen may appear again. Please do a reboot. You will definitely see the MIUI installation screen.
Device: Redmi note 7S
I found a solution and it worked for me:
1.Download the bat file and execute in your windows pc : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1NqPotx06yRuhPsOdEAdS4JNsk7qWWchF/view
2. After that use the MI unlocker tool to unlock the device.
3, Use mi flasher to flash the Rom.
After the hours of research in the internet i found the solution.

What do you mean by "execute in your windows pc"? Sorry for asking
I am trying to flash the LineageOS on my Redmi Note 5 Pro (whyred). Initially, I used Windows 10 for the Xiaomi Unlock Tool. However, the Xiaomi Unlock Tool did not detect my device. So, I used this tool https://www.xiaomitool.com/V2/ to unlock my bootloader and it unlocked instantly. Now, I am using Ubuntu 21.04 (I am more comfortable using the command line here) (with android-tools-adb and android-tools-fastboot packages installed) to try to flash TWRP first.
When I connect my device, adb devices can recognise it. Then I use adb reboot bootloader to enter into fastboot. Now, fastboot devices can recognise it too. The screen of the phone shows the fastboot icon.
But, the problem comes here. I use fastboot flash recovery twrp.img and I get this error
FAILED (Write to device failed (No such device))
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now, when I use fastboot devices again. I don't see my device. Another change I see is press any key to shutdown written on the top left corner of the screen of my phone.
USB debugging, USB debugging security, OEM debugging are all enabled. Bootloader is unlocked (as I see in the settings). The phone is updated to latest MIUI version supported officially. And I used the same laptop and method to flash TWRP in a Redmi 3S (land) some time back.
(Posted the same question on android.stackexchange.com also) (https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/238996/redmi-note-5-pro-unable-to-flash-twrp)
Something else I experienced is that after randomly trying to get this right again and again, the command fastboot flash recovery twrp.img did not terminate or fail and got stuck.
So, this was a duplicate. I used the 5th method here and it worked for me. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/everything-about-anti-roll-back-whyred.3816219/
