I've had the phone since March and love it, but when it updated to 8.5.1.0 it lost Root. Since then I have been unable to unlock the bootloader. Xiaomi support has been no help. I have even tried creating a new Mi account and logging of of the phone and then back in with the new account, but no luck. Mi Unlock still will not do it's job.
I get messages that the device is not eligable, the phone and account are not couples and others.
I do have to say that, other than this I do love the device. But, Again, I would like to root it again and have the option of running other ROM or flashing a new one from MIUI forum.
Hi,
I am on MIUI 10 8.7.5, I was trying to unlock redmi note 5 pro bootloader, but I failed. I tried all possible ways but it shows "try after 360hrs", I also used 2 account technique but it was not successful. If any one knows the possible way to unlock bootloader, please share.
Can I unofficially unlock bootloader? Is there any other ways to unlock?
You should search with Google or look at other threads here on XDA before posting this. You have to wait 360 hours.
I had the same problem. You will have to wait 360 hrs. There is currently no workaround to this. Avoid trying to use the 2 account method as users have reported the 360 hr timer being reset as soon as accounts are switched.
It's been now 2 month I try to unlock my fu*** Redmi and I can't.
I create an account wait 360h, some days passed and Miflash says unlock in 220h, good but after that time no, impossible to unlock the phone.
Create another account wait 360h and I can't unlock, say this account can't be unlock or Chinese language or this phone are already unlock but not of course.
Try 3times another account do all good in rules, still this days 420h. And I can't unlock it. WHY!? WHY I CAN'T UNLOCK THIS PHONE.
Tell me please a solution even if I need to payed I don't care, I'm I point I'm made. I own a Xiaomi MI A1, seriously if I don't own this phone I would be in rage right now.
Why it doesn't work? Must I write to Xiaomi, look for payed unlock method. 4 account it's a joke....
HELP ME MY FRIEND PLZ
first of all if you have registered your account on phone and you use the same account for mi flash unlock it states wait 360h = 15 days.
just wait the 15 days and when you try again it will say please wait like 86h after the 15 days. reason you are getting 360 hours is because you are hammering xiaomi with your account and you get locked, meaning your phone imei number is locked and everytime you try with new account you are just making it worse for yourself.
so register your phone with the account you wish to use, go to developer settings on phone and register your same account for unlock.
start mi flash unlock, use same account and try to unlock, you will get please wait 360h message and simply wait 15 days untill your account has been unlocked.
you are spamming and hamering the servers with same phone and with different accounts meaning you are temporarily banned.
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

Well I got my Mi 10T Pro 5G two hours ago. I set myself a reminder next friday at 6pm to install xiaomi.eu Rom as usual when I'm using Xiaomi. In the meantime I'm not really using it as everything will be wiped when unlocking. Even this waiting time is super annoying and I still don't get the reason why but It's worth waiting. Be patient!
It's because sellers would install their ****ty full of malware ROMs and then sell it. That's why it's asking you for a SIM in order to unlock
