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...
Alright guys, I was trying to fix my fingerprint (which I ended up doing) by flashing the global dev ROM 7.8.31 via fastboot with the miflash tool but I accidentally locked the bootloader while doing so. My phone came with the bootloader unlocked and now I can no longer unlock the bootloader. in developper options, the OEM unlocking option is enabled but no matter what I do in fastboot, the process simply does not work. I get the remote token verification has failed message. I have tried every freakin guide out there but my phone now refuses to get unlocked. I can't flash anything with miflash tool anymore, it just says failed, even when trying to flash the global dev 7.8.31 ROM. Anyone can help me here? Xiaomi says my device is unsupported for unlocking yet it was unlocked from the start........
What i did was the official unlock guide from xiaomi where you will get the code from them. Sadly you have to wait for 3days to be able to unlock them again.
Well check this thread...

Well I did that but it kept on saying I had too many IP requests of sorts but I used TunnelBear and set my location to Hong Kong and that allowed me to bypass that and the request was passed through. Surprisingly, I got a message 4 hours later that said I was able to unlock it instead of the 2-7 days it took for most people to get theirs
Same happened to me. I re-lock bootloader to install android pay, and bricked my phone.
Have to reboot in EDL mode (after >50 tries) and flash again.
But... Flashed a locked bootloader version, so i have to request for official unlock (phone came unlocked)
Now I have unlocked bootloader, with Magisk and Safety Net module with Android Pay working fine.
PS: i also had the IP problem. Used a Chinese proxy to override restriction.
I tried every possible way to unlock my mi6, but they all failed, including the international version, the Chinese version, I want to use the third-party rom and root, but I can't unlock my device so that I can't brush in recovery, I tried to force brush in recovery, but my mi 6 can't start, so I want to ask if there is any unofficial way to help me solve the problem of unlocking bootload, please don't tell me to use the official tools, because I tried. Who has an unofficial way to help me, thank you
AFAIK there's no unofficial bootloader unlock for the Mi 6 now.
You might get one eventually but it is unlikely since even though the three days waiting sucks it does work...
What was not working on the unlock?
Did you bind the account on your phone and then wait three days (minimum) and then use the unlock tool (latest version)?
If not then try again.
Give us more information and we can help you.

All I have tried, before this, I have a mi5, I think I should know how to unlock, it should not be my problem, unlock tool tips I did not bind, but I was bound state, I tried Kind of version fails, the same problem, my account already has permission, I think there are unofficial mys5 bootload method, I think mi6 may also exist, so I come to ask you a solution? In fact, there is a region in our country can be solved by mail bootload but need to pay, I do not want to pay do not want to mail. So to ask
First. flash the Chinese development rom,
and then unlock

At which point you failed?
1. Failed on 99% unlock tool?
2. Failed to get the system unlock on Developer Options (the error appear as toast and say something like "10008 参数错误 请参考API文档") ?
If it's #2, then you must connect to any VPN server that is located in Mainland China (Beijing/Shanghai).
If it's #1, then you most likely have to wait 72 hours after you receive your unlock permission from your SMS.
I've just unlocked Mi Mix 2 2 weeks ago. The difference I noticed from when I unlocked my Mi6 is that I need to connect to VPN server in China. Half a year ago, I don't need to do that.

Download miflash_unlock tool, put phone in fastboot, install driver. Start the tool, login, click unlock, check time, wait, then unlock.
I tried to go through the official route to unlock my Global Version Note 5, but when I log into my Mi account, there is no option for "Apply for unlocking permissions", it's greyed out and so it's straight to the Mi Unlock tool. Have I missed something?
I was trying to find out if it's straight forward to lock the bootloader if I should so choose, but when I search all I'm finding are results for people with Global ROM's not the Global Version.
I'm new to Xiaomi but I've been messing around with modding phones for 5 or 6 years now...

My OEM Unlock option doesn't get saved after i exit option developers or restart, i guess i have to wait first? also i installed drivers from mi unlock toons and entered fastboot mode but i can't press unlock on the software i for some reason.
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
