My Redmi Note 5A Prime came with unlocked bootloader with a fake rom. so I flashed official developer fastboot rom. After that my IMEI broke and bootloader locked. Unable to open diag mode. Unable to add MI Account on the phone. I search the internet but sadly couldn't find anything. what I have found needs unlocked bootloader. Can anyone please help me to unlock the bootloader?
You have to apply here: http://en.miui.com/unlock/ in order to unlock your bootloader (can take a bit to get verified)
In addition add the phone number you apply with to your mi clound & login to your mi account on your phone.
Download the software for windows --> login --> connect your phone via fastboot --> hit unlock.
If it still does not work, please go ahead and flash the latest china developer rom on your phone and try everything again.
Good luck and please tell me if it worked
you can unlock unofficial bootloader with edl mode:

Thanks a lot for this solution ada12, it looks promissing.
I suppose that what they mean on your link by "REBOOT YOUR PHONE TO EDL MODE ( Testpoint )" is that i need to unmount the phone like in this video, right?
I havn't tried the hardware method yet, and when I try to use myflash with what is in RNote5_unlock.zip it says it cannot find the file flash_all.bat. So I tried different things:
- used the bach scripts contained in ugglite_global_images_8.4.12_20180412.0000.00_7.1_global but it fails saying cannot find the file tz.mbn... for sure it's not there
- added what was in the zip to the folder ugglite_global_images_8.4.12_20180412.0000.00_7.1_global but then i get the same error that i have been getting for the past several hours "Flash tz error" in mi flash...
What am I doing wrong?
Today, when I try to access the thread on the miui forum i get this error message :/

I had the same problem - the phone came with a 'fake' global rom installed and it was impossible to bind the phone and account. The way I got around it was to flash the latest Chinese stable rom (it isn't possible to flash the global rom while the bootloader is locked) onto the phone and then I was able to bind the phone and account. Once I got to this stage I was then able to request unlock permission which now takes 360 hours (15 days). Once the 15 days have elapsed the bootloader can be unlocked and you are then free to install the latest global rom.
To fix IMEI problem:
1.) Reboot to fastboot mode
2.) Run command: fastboot erase modemst1
3.) Run command: fastboot erase modemst2
4.) IMEI fixed!
For bootloader unlock,if you cant add Mi account to your phone,it is problem,becouse you have to submit phone to unlock request (via developer mode).
Try this: Go to Developer settings,check "Allow OEM unlock" option and then try add MiAccount via next option "Mi unlock status"

I agree with everything here, good job. Just want to add something to "unlock bootloader": if you recieve some error "it can't be added", download a VPN with the location in china. There is one app (at least) where you can create an fake account (e.g. 10 minute mail) and have 1 day of premium. Point it onto china and try to add your mi account again, that should do the trick.
Good luck and have fun ^^ ask if you have some problems!

The answer is: NANOMACHINES, SON!
Just kidding, you have to point onto the root folder, if the system can't find the "flash.bat" you might be one folder too deep. If you get an error message during flashing then you might have a problem in terms of compatibility.
I still don't know yet, what the NSF means by mentioning the computer system with the "blue face for an interface" as an solution to xiaomis bootloader incompatibility issue. It seems suspicious, that some valuable forum posts have gone missing... wondering what the NSF is up to.

Hi there. I was following a guide on how to unlock the bootloader for the xiaomi redmi note 3 pro and it failed on the last step as i entered fastboot oem-unlock go
now when i rebooted the phone, it started up a new setup process and in the end it says my phone is locked to another mi account and that i cannot access it without the password. according to the miui forums there is a way to bypass this, but when i start extracting the .tgz file, i dont get the same files as listed and when i try to flash it again using miflash, it says files missing and i cannot proceed.
How do i get this issue fixed up so that i can get my phone back to at least function without all headache? I have flashed and unlocked a nexus device before but it never gave me such issues. Thanks in advance
(unfortunately it seems that i cannot post outside links as its a new account)
i managed to unbrick my phone, but going through the unlock process, after i enter fastboot oem unlock-go it would give me the result of Failed: token verification failed. how should i proceed

Hi there,
as the thread title suggests, my phone is linked to a non-existing Mi account.
As my (100% correct) password didnt work, the Xiaomi support told me to try and delete the Mi account, which was linked to the phone. Bad idea!
And now, as the shop shipped out the device with an unofficially unlocked bootloader, my bootloader has been relocked and I can only flash ROMs via fastboot. But this seems not to work in terms of deleting the MI account from the phone. No matter what ROM I flashed, there still is the login screen with the prompt to enter the password for the non-existing account.
I have tried many guides on how to remove the Mi account from the phone, but no luck this far.
Can anyone please provide a solution?
Thanks in advance!

Oops, sorry, forgot about the two different models for a minute.
I'm on Snapdragon (kenzo) and the phone was ordered as new (but with some inofficial store ROM).
I tried a lot of different ROMs and yes, I could flash them in spite of the locked bootloader,
but no luck still with the account login screen...
After deleting MI account, flash any ROM stable/developer ROM without SIM card inserted in EDL mode and try again. That login to MI only comes in first boot if SIM card was inserted, without SIM card atleast I don't get that login screen. Then create MI ACCOUNT in mobile itself on Wi-Fi, not with SIM inserted. Hope this helps a bit

Well then you can flash any AOSP ROM via TWRP (I recommend ZCX TWRP recovery).Go for lineage os or slim7 both are quite good Roms.
For the non existent account issue login through a computer and then try forgot password and other things see if u can succeed.

Sorry, but due to the locked bootloader, I couldn't manage to flash TWRP so far. But after I had another look at the respective forums, I understand that there is a new possibility to flash recovery with a locked bootloader. I will try this tomorrow evening and report back.

Ok report back via private message i am keen to listen the outcome.
Okay, I have tried to flash TWRP over the locked bootloader by replacing the recovery.img in the developer ROM.
The MiFlash process was successful,but when I tried to enter recovery by pressing power and volume up, I always ended up with the picture of an USB-cable and a PC. So it seems like there was no recovery installed.
So, I couldn't flash any other ROMs unfortunately...
Anybody has any suggestions how to get lineage or any other ROM on my Note 3?

I had the same problem and took me 2 days to find a good solution and here it is... There is a software called RBSoft Mobile Tool (used v1.4 for RMN3). It's commercial but you can find it online if that's not a problem
adb shell
su
setprop sys.usb.config diag,adb
...and it will show you the port you have to use and just press Remove Mi account. It takes couple of seconds. Reboot, and whoila
Good luck
Edit: This has to be done in EDL mode but it's noted in application. Phone has to be rooted, too

I have managed to open the bootloader, but no success yet with flashing TWRP - MiFlash shows a success, but when I try to enter recovery by the button combination, the phone does simply nothing (sometimes it will boot normally when I release the keys).
Rebooting to recovery via ADB doesn't work for the fact, that the phone is only recognized in fastboot mode. This may either come from the fact, that I can't get into the phone in order to activate USB debugging or from my driver chaos, since I have installed every Xiaomi driver in existance, I guess
I'll try different versions of TWRP over the weekend and let you know how this works out...
what is your current rom?

Hey I think you are doing something wrong.
After following steps of unlocking bootloader, did you reboot in fastboot mode and then run following code in command prompt?
fastboot oem unlock-go
Try above code (this will be the final nail in the coffin for unlocking bootloader)
After this you follow below link to install recovery
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/zcx-twrp-install-twrp-flash-supersu-t3462448
I installed recovery by this thread, excellent one, no hassles

Of course I was doing something wrong...
But no luck with the "fastboot oem unlock-go" either.
It shows that the oem unlock is not allowed...
Is there any kind of workaround for that?
Dear all,
I bought Mi Pad 4 and it was running well, and I want to update the ROM. The device is comes with Locked bootloader.
I unlocked my Mi Pad 4 using MI Unlock. And when I try to relock it using "fastboot oem lock" command, it become suddenly comes with black screen with written: "The system has been destroyed. Press power button to shutdown".
So I entered the fastboot mode and try some command/solutions:
- My device status is locked:
E:\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>fastboot oem device-info
...
(bootloader) Verity mode: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: true
OKAY [ 0.006s]
finished. total time: 0.006s
- I can't unlock it using Mi Unlock:
- Flashing using MiFlashalso not allowed since it is still locked:
- I tried to unlock using fastboot, also failed:
E:\adb>fastboot oem unlock
...
FAILED (remote: Token Verify Failed, Reboot the device
)
finished. total time: 0.003s
- The faastboot screen in my mi pad is only for around 10 Second. After that it goes to "The System has been Destroyed" stage...
Any help is appreciated, because I cant use it anymore...
Why did you even want to close the BL again?!? I dont understand anyone who does that.
And AFAIK you can flash an original Image from Xiaomi even with locked BL. But I have never done it and the guide shows a working phone..
http://en.miui.com/thread-835254-1-1.html
You need the Mi-Flash Tool. And these damn Indian people with their fake titles on youtube.. The title is english and the freaking video is hindi or whatever.. SO ANNOYING!!!
Hi, the tutorial you gave is for 'normal' xiaomi phone, where it boot normally (even its BL is locked).
In my case, I cant load the BL (It said: Destroyed). The only thing I can do is restart to fastboot state, and after 20 seconds it goes again to Destroyed state.
Ok, so I have read some other threads and what seems the "only" solution is to unlock the bootloader again.. But the other people had no problem running "oem unlock".. And you get an error, what is kinda strange.
What happens in MiUnlock? Error?
Hi, I think the main problem is current status is "The System has been Destroyed", therefore it cannot load the BL.
Meanwhile, the BL is in Locked status. So it need to be un-locked first, so I can load the new ROM.
MIUnlock is error, it said: "Current account is not bound to this device", which is strange, because previously I unlocked using it before.
I assume MIUnlock said this because the status of "System destroyed"...
Never lock if there is not 100% Xiaomi official rom inside, and better use MiFlash with "clean all and lock" option for locking.
Thanks for your suggestion. Will do that after I fix this problem..
I think you have a bricked device.. Some devices have this "test-pins", where you can enable some debug-bridge and there you could flash it (mi5 or redmi5 was that in that thread). I dont know if the Pad4 has such Pins and you would have to open the whole device.. (its not something you can access from the outside).
But I dont know if the Pad has these test-pins, just because another Xiaomi device had it..
Noted on that, but too risky for me to open the case..
Any other solution would be really appreciated.

On some devices you have to login your Mi Account with MiFlash when flashing in EDL mode and account needs special permissions.

Yup, and I cant do that since cannot load the BL, because it's "Destroyed" right now..

The only solution was already posted several times -> open device, find test-pins, use them and flash ROM. And yet, you still ignore it everytime. THERE is no other solution for bricked devices.
And: NEVER close the bootloader again on NON official ROMs.
2 ways to try out...
1st run
"fastboot flashing unlock"
2nd
"fastboot oem reboot EDL"
Or this link if the command doesn't work
https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum....e-how-to-reboot-to-edl-fastboot-t3394292/amp/
go to service centre they will be able to restore the device using edl i hope
I tried also all solutions, but nothing helped. EDL, fastboot, etc.
If there is a way to unlock the BL again I can go on. Otherwise there will be no chance for me to get it running.
Has anyone got a solution how I can unlock the BL again? Or flash with locked BL?
Thanks!

Looks like it is straightforward to remove the back cover. Perhaps you can find the EDL test points on the motherboard?

Hello I have a redmi note 4x completely briked..the phone has the bootloader blocked, when I turn it on it restarts and never gets to load the system, I have already flash by testpoint many rom, Miui developer, Global Stable and still in the same, The phone in fastboot mode and Revory (the original of the phone) does not restart, and during the flash by testpoint it is also maintained and never disconnected, I say this because I have read some cases that this happens. At the beginning of the problem he always came to show the three points that he is loading MIUI but there is a reboot, this is not anymore the case, now it never comes, sometimes it stays on when I leave it for a long time restarting but stuck only on the logo MI .... someone knows how to solve this problem, I can not send it to any technical service or anything in my country that does not exist ... greetings
I'm no expert, but I would go online and unlock the bootloader. Then follow this: http://c.mi.com/thread-334-1-0.html There might be other ways, but this one will work, even if getting Xiaomi to unlock the bootloader takes time.
Unlock bootloader, it takes 3 days for Xiaomi to approve it. Install twrp recovery, wipe everything and install some aosp rom.

I can not do that the phone don't loader the OS..
Not sure but I think you should install adb and fastboot on pc and then Connect your phone then try "fastboot devices" and if it shows you some device, it means that your device is plugged in properly then try "fastboot oem unlocking" command this would unlock your bootloader, well the big problem is that all these commands are with respect to the Linux pc, there are something similar to do with windows and worse thing is that xiaomi have different method for unlocking the bootloader as shown in other post

Thanks for your answer, but for unlock the bootloader of a Xiaomi Phone you need first apply and ask permissions with a mi account , after that use a sofware name Mi Unlock with the account login on the phone and on the MI Unlock software. Is the only way in Xiaomi's Phone. The big problen here is I can't get into the Android System I can't put my account in the phone for unlock the bootloader.

Have you tried any fastboot rom to unbrick your device, I have read your post where you have mentioned about flashing some ROMs but have not seen fastboot rom
you may use wipedata option in recovery mode, if you done have already backed up your data or you can sacrifise the data on phone,it will load the original recovery rom,than upgrade rom.....

Hello I have a redmi note 4x completely briked..the phone has the bootloader blocked, when I turn it on it restarts and never gets to load the system, I have already flash by testpoint many rom, Miui developer, Global Stable and still in the same, The phone in fastboot mode and Revory (the original of the phone) does not restart, and during the flash by testpoint it is also maintained and never disconnected, I say this because I have read some cases that this happens. At the beginning of the problem he always came to show the three points that he is loading MIUI but there is a reboot, this is not anymore the case, now it never comes, sometimes it stays on when I leave it for a long time restarting but stuck only on the logo MI .... someone knows how to solve this problem, I can not send it to any technical service or anything in my country that does not exist ... greetings

I guess u should give a shot . Gud luck

Maybe because"Make sure your device can connect to the internet using mobile data."
https://new.c.mi.com/global/post/101245
there are other tools for Media Tek device.

As far as using mobile data, MI account already recognized my device & successfully passed the "Add account and device"
During unlocking, I made sure to open a hotspot from the phone # which is registered with the MI account.
*edit: it's a Wifi only Pad.. so.. though I do have a choice of Wifi or hotspot during the unlocking process
I have also tried the exact unlocking method from technobuzz link you have provided. Thank you for sharing.

I was ecstatic!!! when i first saw the pic
I've got this.. pic with an unlock. Does it mean bootloader is unlocked?
if i choose the second option and enter WiFi information, then choose the first option, it boots as though factory reset has been done (goes through the initial setup) BUT all the data is there. and status shows it's STILL LOCKED.
Now the 2nd time, i let the locked icon stay and boot into fastboot and try installing TWRP, it failed :-(
this is the error i get:
fastboot flash recovery twrp1.img
Sending 'recovery' (33812 KB) OKAY [ 0.842s]
Writing 'recovery' FAILED (remote: 'No support by lock control')
fastboot: error: Command failed
What now?
Thank you for any/all the help i can get

upon connecting the cable to the device (in a fastboot mode) the Unlock tool does NOT see it as being attached eventhough the bootloader drivers are there and shows that device is connected. when i type "fastboot devices" my device shows up as well
*the global Mi Unlock tool takes me to the account info (where i can change password/email/other details
i've tried various versions of MI Unlock tool.. (including batch unlock ones) all give the same result. Just like to add.. i have successfully unlocked Mi Note 7 using the Mi Unlock tool (at the time I didnt have to wait eventhough there was supposedly a 7 day wait)

Have you enabled USB debugging?
Are you using a usb 2 port?
Is the Mi pad usb port 2 or 3?
The Mi Unlock folder must be at the root of the hard drive.
Try running Mi Unlock as administrator.
EDIT:
ANOTHER TOOL
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tool-rom2box-all-in-one-frp-flashing-unlocking-tool.4477349/
Im so happy, NOSS8! Thank you ever so much!
moving the folder to C:\ must have done the trick AND running it as admin.
there's a 120hr wait then what recovery do i install when there are no officially supported ROMs either

Glad it worked but if there is no recovery or rom for this model, why unlock the bootloader?
You can install a stock Global or other rom but without locking the bootloader and rooting to have a certified play store.
