Hello.
I just got my phone. I've imported the phone from China, so it's running Chinese ROM.
ROM is: MIUI V7.2,2.20.LHOCNDA
Now there is no Play Store.. I had Nexuses, OnePlus, M8, S6 edge.. And many other Android phones. I've rooted all of them. I am familiar with ADB, I know how to unlock bootloader on Nexus, OnePlus..
I've read trough the Redmi Note 3 PRO forum, and I see there can be problems with unofficial unlock. So I just applied for the official Unlock...
So can I flash the Global ROM with locked bootloader? If yes, how?
Can I root the Global ROM after the flash? If yes, how?
Can I unlock the bootloader on Global ROM?
What is the difference with Global ROM and dev. ROM?
Is there any reliable unlock method besides the official one? I am getting confused reading all of the way's to do it.
Any answerer will be appreciated :good:

if you want Play Store and multi lang you need global rom, but again be carefull with flashing
i don't recommend unlocking but for that you need dev rom otherwise you will get this error "Couldn't verify device at 50%"

Hello, the unofficial method to unlock the bootloader given over at http://forum.miui.co.in/forum/mi-de...5165-redmi-note-3-snapdragon-unlock-the-beast is not working for me, no matter how many fastbboot ROMs I flash with Mi Flash Tool, or upgrade / downgrade using stock RECOVERY ZIP files.
Everytime same error, at fastbbot oem unlock-go it says "Invalid unlock token" or something like that.
.
I have already received confirmation sms for Official unlock, but that method not working, it is stuck at 50% and says "Please verify that same mi account should be logged in to device" or something like that.
.
Are these known issues already? And if yes, any other workarounds???
.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks a lot !!!
It is a common known issue. I unlocked by first bricking my phone by flashing MIUI rom when unofficially unlocked, then my phone unlocked using the miflash unlock tool. Alternatively you could flash the global dev or china dev rom in order to unlock

I tried that, tried the global dev as well as global stable.
So which one should I go for now, china dev or stable?
And any other way to unlock??

So flash China Dev then unlock officially?
Also, won't it really result in exchange of modem partitions instead of Indian modem that I currently have?

First you have to switch to miui rom and relock your bootloader . Then pray that you don't get stuck at 50 % .
I got the permission to unlock bootloader two weeks ago but stuck at 50% .
I flashed every rom be it global stable or Dev , china stable and dev and that too every previous version of MIUI (Wasted so much of data) but to no avail .
Finally I unlocked the bootloader unofficially .
Xiaomi is ****ing lazy to update our account on there server....
So doesn't matter what rom you install you have to wait atleast a week to unlock

Hey bro a little update . I unlocked the bootloader unofficial way and it was over a week after I got the confirmation SMS . So wanted to go back to MIUI with locked bootloader state for official unlocking .
Flashed the fastboot rom through MiFLash and I was back to MIUI with locked bootloader state and then unlocked it officially .
Hope it helps .

Yep did it with two devices after a week of confirmation sms . No trying in between so lets say after you have flashed global give it a go if it doesn't happen then do not try in between and try after straight 7 days .

Just about to try it now, got permission 3 days after applying for unlocking.
Hi, I need to fix a bricked RN3 Pro for a friend. I don't want to unlock the bootloader. Are there are good ROMs other than the official Xiaomi ones that can be flashed to it? Preferably without the Chinese apps. I started looking through the ROM forum but everything seems to need unlocked bootloader.
The only roms that can be flashed to it on a locked bootloader are the official roms.
Actually I found one here: http://choimobile.vn/threads/locked...bal-xiaomi-redmi-note-3-pro-17-06-2016.67100/
It's SpaceX. The website is in Vietnamese. Does anyone have any experience with it?
Why don't u want to unlock the bootloader on official way? It's easy.. and every thing is flashable after that

It's not my phone, I just want to unbrick it and give it back as soon as I can, so I don't have time to wait for the unlock code.
Also my friend is not the type who cares about custom ROMs, he just wants it to work with no bloatware.

This guide explains how to flash stock MIUI roms. You have a few options for root. You could flash a global or China beta/dev ROM which have an in built root which can be enabled. You could unlock your bootloader and install TWRP then install superSU. Or you could just try an app like KingRoot if you trust it enough.

I've done it with the China dev/beta rom and that is what's recommended. It may be possible on the new global dev but I'm not sure and so can only recommend the China dev/beta. Once unlocked you'll stay unlocked so you can flash whatever you want straight away after. Just make sure to backup/sync any data first as everything will get wiped when using the SP flash tool.

It was a simple and normal question. I don't bully you or anyone else here. It's better if i ask you before you brick your phone or something. But anyway, it's your phone and your choice.
Global dev rom works, I unlocked mine early this week. You will need to fill in the form for permission from Xiaomi hxxp://en.miui.com/unlock and wait for an activation code for your Mi account before you start. You'll also need that account on your phone. It absolutely will not work on Global Stable, trust me, I tried!
The Global Dev rom doesn't have root enabled, so you'll also have to install TWRP (from cofface) there is a good guide in this forum somewhere, then flash SuperSu from there. (the official version works just fine)

Thanks for confirming, I unlocked using the china dev rom and enabled the built-in root. I could then use flashfire to install cofface's TWRP recovery and did a wipe in TWRP to start afresh without root.

Bootloader can even be unlocked on Global stable now. Just did it successfully on 8.1.2.0. Next TWRP can be flashed via fastboot and last SuperSU in TWRP. All done.

No reason why it should not work on 8.1.3.0. Just look for the bootloader check in developer settings. If it's there and you can link your account you should be good to go. Always worth a try...
Latest Supersu is always available on Chainfire's website download.chainfire.eu. Flash via TWRP. It's not specific to A ROM or device.
