I tried again and again, but I could not unlock the bootloader in my device. Does anyone have a way that could work?
More details would be better.
Check here that everything is correct.

This method takes a long time, is there another?
This is the official method.
There are tools for Media Teck devices (do a search) that avoid the 'waiting time' (at your own risk).

Has any one bypassed 360hrs time for unlocking bootloader? I am on miui 9.5.17.0.
the bypass has been patched by xiaomi. Correct me if I'm wrong: there's no alternative, so just wait it out
as far i can see, few people can unlock with the old method, so its patched
Hi, I just received my Mi A2 Lite and I have some specific questions before I start trying risky stuff:
1- I read that to flash with MiFlash, I need an authorized account. Is this for specific situations or the MiFlash tool is completely unusable without autorization?
2- I also heard that some Xiaomi devices have anti-rollback protection that cannot be desactivated even with an unlocked bootloader. Is this also the case with our device or since it's with android one, the anti-rollback can be desactivated with unlocking the bootloader? So for example when the pie update is released, would it be possible to go back to Oreo?
3- Last and less important question: if I flash a treble ROM, will I brick my phone if I relock the bootloader?
Thank you in advance!
1. No. You can also use fastboot to flash.
2. As far as I know (and I may be wrong) - there is no rollback protection for Xiaomi Android One devices.
3. I haven't tried that - I assume you mean relocking the bootloader while the Treble ROM is installed? I'd assume you would be fine as you could just run fastboot to unlock again but you can try that out.
I used MiFlash with my A2 Lite to flash stock firmware and I don't have any Xiaomi account. I rollbacked from September (OTA) to July (FULL fastboot rom) and updated again to September via OTA without any problems.
Thank you for your answers
So I assume MiFlash always works for this device? It would be very usefull to have this extra option in case a hard brick happens and the fastboot is not accessible
Isn't MiFlash just a GUI for fastboot?

No, MiFlash controls the EDL. The EDL (Emergency Download Mode) is a Qualcomm feature that has a lower level and has more permissions and higher privileges. And if the device is hard bricked and can't boot on nor recovery Noé fastboot, there's a hardware way to boot into EDL (see here : https://www.google.dz/amp/s/www.magnetforensics.com/blog/qualcomm-phone-edl-mode/amp/ ). So that has nothing to do with fastboot and is more efficient in the case of a brick (as long as there's no problem with Xiaomi authentication
Edit : It also seems that the EDL isn't on the internal storage so even if we manage to completely mess up with the partitions, the EDL cannot be currupted (https://alephsecurity.com/2018/01/22/qualcomm-edl-1/)
Sorry for the double post

Will this work with Mi 11x? Has anyone tried it?
No. Because mi unlock tool is now changed.

How about using the same version that he uses in the guide?
Old tool works only on older devices. Newer ones are patched and the workaround doesn't work except a few new tools that work only on Mediatek exploits
I see. Thanks!
Hi all. I'm thinking about purchasing a oneplus 9 pro, via tmobile. I know traditionally speaking you have to pay off your phone to network unlock, and then request an unlock token from oneplus to be able to root the device. I havent snooped around the forums here much for this device. Is there currently a way to root the phone without having to do all the pre-req crap normally required. Is there a way to unlock bootloader like there was with oneplus 7T via MSM tool or similar? I don't perticularly care about SIM unlock, just bootloader. Thanks!
Hi, you have to sim unlock inorder to bootloader unlock
Here's a lot of info for starters:

OnePlus phones are easy to root as compared to a few other brands. And since there is a flash tool available for OnePlus phones, you can take risks for rooting your phone. You can use the flash tool to fix your phone in case of any issue. Rooting is not an easy task, but Magisk app makes it easier if you follow the correct steps. But you cannot directly root your phone by default. So first we will share how to unlock bootloader of OnePlus 9 (Pro).

If all you want to do is root/ROM your phone, then you don't need to "unlock your phone". You just need to "unlock your bootloader" which is something different and not hard.
My phone is still SIM-locked but I have rooted it and installed Havoc OS ROM.
To unlock the bootloader, this app should do the trick.

So when I run the unlock bootloader option it just says waiting for device.
What am I missing?
Thank you
Did you reboot your phone to bootloader?
I believe I'm missing the appropriate drivers on my PC. Got stuck on 'waiting for device' ..
Surely there's a way to unlock the bootloader of an Asus ROG phone 6 without the unlock tool?
Does anyone know how? And is it as simple as other OEM unlocks
It's possible but not simple.
ASUS remove the OEM unlock commands from all their roms to force using the official unlock app. The one they have decided to no longer offer.
What needs to be done is someone patching a ROM to enable those and re-pack it as a RAW or EDL that can be force flashed on to a locked device. After that the device can simply be unlocked with the standard commands. It requires some development work that nobody has looked into yet. It was done for ROG 2.
