Need Help-Unlocking Bootloader Official Way

hey freinds.......i have jst got my new kenzo (sd).........i have applied for unlocking permisions and got approval also......................but whenever i try to unlock my phone using unlock tool it shows id mismatch and gets stuck at 50%..............................:crying:
im on stock miui 7.5 global stable rom (lollipop)...............du i need to flash any file/ dev rom/ chinese rom before unlocking...............................
this method worked for me when i was on V8.0.6.0.LHOMIDG MIUI8.
1- you need to switch from global stable to global developer rom, download the latest global developer rom on android lollipop(5.1).
unfortunately xda won't let me include links,so google this : miui_HMNote3ProGlobal_6.8.18_d0da79d09e_5.1.zip
2- after downloading the rom,rename the file name to Update.zip then copy to internal storage(in downloaded_rom folder).
3- open updater app, select choose update package, go to downloaded_rom folder and select Update.zip. It will verify your rom and install it.
4- download the latest global developer rom from en miui , repeat the steps 2 and 3.
5- sign in to your mi account on your device(enable find device),also on i.mi.com(to check your device). enable developer options,OEM unlocking and USB debugging.
6- download the latest version of MIFlashUnlock tool and log into your account
7- turn off your device and go to fastboot (press and hold volume - and power button at the same time), connect your device to your PC, click unlock(on MIFlashUnlock tool), after your bootloader successfully unlocked, click on reboot.
It is simple

I don't think so, If you're already on dev - you need to perform the steps 5 to 7. If it didn't work,try to log into your account with your phone number(for account on your phone,i.mi.com and MIFlashUnlock tool) - also check your mi account info, the country you choose should be the same as you phone number, don't choose another country!

I understood that from your first reply,no,you don't need to downgrade.It's recommended to do this unlocking process on the latest rom. just follow my last comment,specially logging from your phone number not your email into your account...also perform factory reset just to be 100% sure.
for comprehensive information about the unlocking process,check the forum on en miui and look for the following threads :

This error(on updater app) happens if you're trying to switch from global stable(lollipop) to global developer(marshmallow),follow the instructions. Download the latest global developer on LOLLIPOP and try. After you successfully switched to global developer then download the latest global developer(marshmallow).

Official method is worst. Its not like Motorola who gives unlock code within a min.
Try unofficial above method
Do we still need to flash modified Boot.img for first time flashing TWRP ?

Yes you need to flash a ROM. Whether it is official miui 8 or beta miui 8 or any custom ROM. Cm13 and RR v5.8.0 7.1-N is better.
Now if you need your ROM back with twrp and root access. Just install miui 8 official ROM through twrp and don't try to change the recovery its the safe twrp I provided with. And its important for unofficially unlocked bootloaders like you.
Since it is official miui 8 so it will block your bootloader but to prevent this just install universal boot image patcher after installing this ROM.
You can find it on net and after that reboot and install. Now to get root access download and install SuperSU zip from net via twrp and reboot.

Oh no. This problem still continues.
I think you have to flash global kenzo 7.0 ROM through mi flash program on PC and then proceed to edl and flashing twrp.
I will be posting the instructions. Today only.
But I have unlocked it without this method
+1 , I get waiting for device also - because cannot see adb devices Drivers are installed
and when i try flashing a developer rom through miphone tool , im always getting errors

I've reached that stage, what should I answer to the questions about :
1. Restore original boot.img
2. Restore original recovery.img
I'm guessing a "NO" would be safer since they were modified and we're restoring anyway...ok did that.
ok, all good, although I did have to reboot my W7 computer to disable digital signing to install the Qualcomm drivers.
Thanks again, will be useful to upgrade to N on May 17th !

Quick question, do you see any problem in flashing the recovery.img from your 5_K53_S123_170216_ROW_STOCK.rar ? I've just found out that you could easily remove the password locks by booting into TWRP and that's making me a bit nervous. Thanks !

No difference and no matters. Old firmware was an ota working test for me.
According to net sniffing with latest rom, system updater apk can succesfully checks server and running.
There seems no problem.

[TUTO] Complete tutorial to root MI9 without TWRP (Keeps intact encryption of the MI9

This simple and effective procedure was first proposed by "Serbinhio" in beta version. I am only improving it slightly and adding my own additional procedure for updating a previously rooted system. I allow myself to redo a new post because the original one was not complete and there are no more answers to our requests.
I remind that this way makes it possible to change nothing to the recovery and thus to keep the original encrypted DATA partition. This brings a cleaner ROM than flashing TWRP but also easier and faster.
Note : As usual, you are solely responsible for attempting to root your smartphone. I am in no way responsible for a possible brick of your MI9.
Note : This tutorial is for Global version, i don't know if it work in Chinese version with same result.
Note : For a successful flashing, read the whole procedure before starting.
Note : A solution has been found for Chinese versions. See at the end of this post
Let's go there
The files to download:
Magisk manager: Link Here
Depending of you actual system :
- Full ROM 10.2.17 Link Here
- original Boot.img from 10.2.17 : Link 10.2.17.0
- Full ROM 10.2.22 Link Here
- You can use the download folder with all boot rom (actually up to 10.2.28) by Tramix32 : Link here
- Full ROM 10.2.30 Link Here
The procedure :
Install ADB into the PC (Search into xda how to do that)
Pass the MI 9 in developer mode
Enable USB Debugging
(Of course the MI9 must have the bootloader unlocked)
Download the current ROM of your MI9 (10.2.17 to 10.2.28)
Create a folder on the PC and unzip the rom in it
Connect the MI9 to the PC with the USB cable
In the folder where you put the ROM, copy the file named BOOT.IMG and transfer it to the root of the MI9
Install Magisk Manager in the MI9
Into Magisk manager, go to setting and choose the channel « Beta »
Into Magisk manager, go to « Install magisk » and choose « patch boot image »
In the next window Go to the root of the MI9 and point to boot.img. Validate.
In The PC, navigate to the MI9 in the folder « Download » and Copy the file « magisk_patched.img » into the folder « ADB » of the PC.
Delete the file into the MI9, we do not need it anymore
On the pc, open a CMD window. With command line, go to the adb folder (ex: cd /adb)
Type « Adb devices »
You must have in response the ID of the mi9 that appears. If this is not the case, validate the debugging mode on your MI9 screen by ticking the box "Always allow for this device"
Type « adb reboot bootloader »
(Mi9 restart in fastboot mode)
Type « fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img »
After the flash, type « fastboot reboot » or press the on / off button for several seconds to restart
Wait the Mi9 to reboot and .. rooted !
Now Here is the tutorial to update an MI9 rooted by this method :
First, download the full ROM of the update concerned. For exemple, the 10.2.22 ROM is here or download the new boot.img of the new version of rom in the tramix32 directory.
Inthe MI9, Launch the update program and validate. The Mi9 reboot and an error is displayed announcing that the update has failed. The Mi9 reboot.
Restart the update utility. This time, utility launches a full update that will be done normally and without error.
Once the update is complete, go to the PC. In the folder where you put the ROM, copy the file named BOOT.IMG and transfer it to the root of the MI9
Into Magisk manager, go to setting and choose the channel « Beta »
Into Magisk manager, go to « Install magisk » and choose « patch boot image »
In the next window Go to the root of the MI9 and point to boot.img. Validate.
In The PC, navigate to the MI9 in the folder « Download » and Copy the file « magisk_patched.img » into the folder « ADB » of the PC.
On the pc, open a CMD window. With command line, go to the adb folder (ex: cd /adb)
Type « Adb devices »
Type « adb reboot bootloader »
(Mi9 restart in fastboot mode)
Type « fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img »
After the flash, type « fastboot reboot » or press the on / off button for several seconds to restart
Wait the Mi9 to reboot and .. Update is rooted !
Enjoy !
--------------------------------
FOR CHINESES VERSIONS (edited the 2019-05-30)
--------------------------------
To avoid having a message request to install a Zip after installing Magisk, cutesniper22 found this solution:
1. install clean global rom as normal,
2. flash magisk boot img as previously mentioned on this post
3. U will be asked for click on "requires additional setup". Please ignore the pop-up & close magisk manager.
4. Install a root browser with root access. Look this file and edit it : /system/vendor/etc/fstab.qcom
5. look this string "fileencryption=ice" and remove & save it.
6. Reboot. (U will stuck again into recovery once u reboot, dont worry...)
7. Perform full wipe at mi recovery.
8. Reboot & Done. Start your setup & app installation as usual. Your phone & magisk is ready.
(a click on the thanks button is always a pleasure, so do not hesitate!)
NOTE : THIS TUTORIAL IS FOR GLOBAL VERSION AND LINK IS FOR GLOBAL ONLY.
IF YOU HAVE CHINESEA VERSION, PLEASE FOUND FULL CHINESE ROM BEFORE TO DO ANYTHING.
I don't know if Chinese rom have same results. Do it at your own risk.
Works perfectly !
The Magisk link is broken.

I will be able to unlock the bootloader tonight. Do we have to use the beta channel as you tell in your post or is the stable channel enough? Thanks!
NO, put on beta channel.. It's more sure.
This method works perfectly, but there is one little issue, offline charging stops working. Plugging the wall adapter makes the screen turn on, but it gets stuck at the "Mi" logo. It's not a huge issue, but it's a little annoying.
So I am a little unclear - this method keeps the device encrypted and allows custom ROMs? Or just stock? As the beta TWRP removes encryption. Thanks.
Can someone upload boot.img from 10.2.17.0? My internet is so sloow

Great.....you should try gsi on your device....
Sounds good and regards to the developer, But I recommend that to wait until the TWRP be tested well and release the first update vesion .
for me I will keep waiting for the official TWRP, no need to rush there is no any custom rom
Well it works for me. I use the redmi 9 nfc 3/32 lancelot.

I guess you can test it yourself. Quite easy to fix things if it doesn't boot the TWRP. You'll simply flash the original recovery.img from the current MIUI full ROM installed on your phone to erase the TWRP without even erasing userdata. My bootloader is currently locked so can't test it now. About bricks, as you know this is an MTK so you have to be extremely careful.
The advantage with TWRP is you can mod the system so long as you enable write access to that partition. Flashing Magisk modules also works better via the recovery.
Last thing, I think the only way you can get root on MIUI is through the patched boot method. Flashing the Magisk installer zip in TWRP just doesn't do.

It means the flashing program in the zip. You can just flash the img file via fastboot command. I tried, it works.
Copy the .img file to your fastboot folder & flash .
Almost brick my device.....
Today I installed this in my redmi 9....
I was surprised when I see that my device is is boot into this recovery....
I am very happy but my happiness gone after a few minutes.....
When I boot into system I cannot boot into recovery.....
So I format all user data and chach....
But same thing happen To me....
I flash this recovery again with fastboot mode.. then I can boot into recovery...
I think it could be happen because my phone is encrypted... So I force dencrypted my device....
When I want to boot into system. I fail to boot no system and no recovery...
I think it is over but luckily I able to boot into fastboot mood ..then I flash boot and recovery....
I realise that there is no need to flash this recovery... Because you can root your phone without recovery....
If you try to flash GSI ROM... It will not happen because it does not support GSI ROM
There is no option to erase system and vendor separately.....
So who want to flash GSI via this recovery, I suggest you do not flash it because we do not need it this time....
I am not sure it may be happen only with me. Feel free to share your experience...

This recovry is only to flash magisk for now. Flashing ROMs not supported yet. Don't try to flash rom with this.
That's mean this recovery is not helpful.....

In order to get that lucky we will need source code. Without source code nothing can be done properly.
