Hello all... has anyone managed to unlock kate device with official method? i am trying and gets stuck at 50%....
if yes how?
Few days ago search something about 50% bug and it`s seems that till today nobody unlock Kate with official way. Yet here is probably only unofficial method http://en.miui.com/thread-345728-1-1.html Or you can wait till Xiaomi remove this bug.

Hello, I unlocked my kate version the official way. First I unlocked it using unofficial method, but I got the permission to unlock the bootloader. I flashed the "Global Developer" fastboot rom using MIFlash, which locked my bootloader. Then, I rebooted my device into fastboot mode and unlocked it using the MiFlash Unlock tool.

- Bootloader status (before unlocked officially)
Device unlocked: true
Device critical unlocked: false
- Permission received to unlock the bootloader via text
- Flashed the global developer fastboot rom via MiFlash
Do not forget to back up data. It will be a clean install.
Miflash(version: 2016.08.30.0)
Fastboot rom, "Global Developer"(kate_global_images_7.1.5_20170105.0000.00_6.0_global)
- Device bootloader locked again.
- Unlocked the device with the MiFlash unlock tool.
MiFlashUnlock(version: 1.1111.1)
Open the unlock tool and put the phone into fastboot mode(Volume down and power key together).
Connect your device via USB cable and wait for the tool to detect your phone.
Press the unlock option in the tool.
Press reboot when the tool says.
Check the bootloader status under: Settings>> Additional settings>> Developer options>> Lock status.
That's it. This is how I unlocked the bootloader. I hope it will work for you.

Did you setup Mi account on the device after ROM flashed or just restarted to Fastboot after cleanboot?

Yes, I did setup MI account(the one on which I requested the permission) and synced it once before booting the device into the fastboot mode. Make sure to enable OEM unlock and USB debugging before fastboot.

did u also associate the xiaomi id with the phone under Mi unlock status in dev options?
It is another step which is failing on my device. It says it can't verify the device and ask me to retry after 1 or 2 minutes, forever.

I did not. Just logged in the MI account while setting up the rom on first boot.
I just tried official way to unlock my kate with global developer rom last night and I was very happy that it worked on first attempt.

For the sake of this question I have a locked bootloader on a wt19i. The phone is rooted. (It's my friend's phone but I'm voicing a theory). It can't enter fastboot mode and the bootloader unlock status is: not allowed.
Armed with the IMEI number,
If I did a TA backup via Octopus Suite 1.0.3,
Then, (following methods seen in this thread: http://goo.gl/QNKxS Third post down.) to force the phone into fastboot, start a firmware (re)install in PC Companion. During that process the phone will enter fastboot mode. If I stop the process there [in Windows Task Manger], then the phone will get stuck booting only into fastboot mode (until I finish putting firmware .tft back on it).
THEN I use SE Bootloader Unlocking v1.6 {Found here: http://goo.gl/JxDmY }. I give it my IMEI, it gets an unlock code and I connect the phone - in fastboot - and select "Unlock BL" to unlock the bootloader.
Then restore TA, followed by a restore of firmware.
Would this unlock the bootloader or brick the phone?
Corrections and answers welcome.

I checked the thread you were referring to,
the process they are doing there is to access flash mode...
fastboot is completely different, can only be accessed if bootloader is unlocked.
based also on the bootloader unlock status: not allowed, this means phone is network locked, unlocking of bootloader would not work thru available methods in xda.
you would to pay in order to remove the network lock and then unlock bootloader
Would this unlock the bootloader or brick the phone?

This would not unlock the bootloader,
Brick the phone, not sure, but it would probably wont, good thing you have a backup.
You can always do a flashing of stock firmware thru flashtool or wotanserver.

You can't unlock if it says

If it says

then you can unlock, look in my signature for a guide.

your bootloader is unlocked.
You can check the state if you boot phone up, open dialer, type *#*#7378423#*#* -> Service Info -> Configuration
Please tell us what it says there, then we can help you

The problem is you tried to use that tool and the moment you have typed your IMEI and pressed get unlock code, you lost your warranty. So you have no warranty anymore!!
Now you will have to desimlock and after that you can just hope fasboot is enabled.
Install flashtool, open the installation folder > drivers and install all drivers for all devices. Install the android sdk (please better look in my signature to see how to set up android sdk and flashtool and replace the usb drivers). Then try to enter fastboot mode like explained in the threads
for some reason i can t unlock bootloader my redmi 3 pro via xiaomis unlock tool, it stucks at %50 all the time, i need to root it, for that i have to unlock bootloader, how can i do it ?
I'm afraid this isn't possible. If there was a way to unlock quickly, anybody would hardly use MiUnlick yet.
1. Download latest fastboot China dev ROM
2.install latest MiFlash tool
3. Reboot the phone to fastboit mode
4. Flash the extracted ROM
5. Boot and setup Xiaomi account
6 reboot to fastboot mode again
7.Run MiUnlock
You need to have unlock right on your account approved odcourse

The frp can be blocked again from the developer's settings, settings> developer options> Enable OEM unlock.
For the boot manager, you must go to the adb command window and, with the device in fastboot mode, you must enter one of these two commands (if one does not work, try the other):
fastboot oem lock
or
fastboot oem relock
That should block the FRP and the boot loader again
How to :
1. Enter fastboot mode
2. Run these code:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
What will happen:
1. Bootloader will be locked, if you rooted or flashed twrp, renmenber to flash official firmware before relocking.
2. widevine level will be restored to L1.
3. All data will lost after relocking.
4. DRM key? I don't think we need it now and IDK if it loses either.

Could please upload the screenshot of the page configuration from the menu service?
Also, I advice you to hide your IMEI for security reasons

You need to use Xperia Companion to repair firmware.

I read many times and I still don't understand how to "run the code fastboot oem lock". I'm trying to reset and relock bootloader on phone after Sailfish
When unlocking the bootloader, you entered:
fastboot oem unlock (+ code from Sony)
when locking the bootloader, just type:
fastboot oem lock
Everything works, I have done tp several times.

You can't lock the bootloader with a custom rom.
Try https://spflashtool.com/

Hi, I tried it but nothing happened. I think that I have Snapdragon chipset and spflashtool is working only on MTK.
