This is a known problem. Just search on Google and you will find hundreds of people with this same issue.

I experienced it too, and it was very frustrating. But ultimately I managed to unlock my phone.

First of all make sure you are on the same account as the one with which you are signing in on unlocker app and that your SIM card shows 'activated' in your phone's Settings>MI Account>Devices. Then try these:

Login on i.mi.com using your phone number and not email or account ID. Do the same on your phone.

Try using different USB cables.

Try locating your device using i.mi.com

Turn on the GPS in your phone before trying to unlock bootloader.

Complete all your details in MI forum. Also make sure your account security status is at 100% at mi.com

Turn off your antivirus protection.

Install MI PC suite.

Try to increase your reputation on MI forums :p

I tried all these things and got my phone unlocked. Maybe you will succeed too. But there are no guarantees, sometimes it just seems like random luck. So keep trying. ;)

In my case, it worked immediately after I flashed the global developer ROM. Anyway, I read everything about this problem and it seems that it is better to wait and try it from time to time, than changing too many things.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] zeyaan:
Considering the struggle i had unlocking the bootloader officially (not wanting to take the risk of Bricked device)

And reading all the available guides and tips around various forums on Google, this includes mi community, mi forum, mi india forum, xiaomi eu, XDA adn various other sites.

i finally figured out the easiest way based on my own research and success i got.

Its safest and easiest method but require patience.

Prerequisites.

*Working and stable internet (phone and Computer)

*Mi Suite (for correct Drivers)

*Mi Account with complete details (Name, phone number and Synced)

*Mi Unlock Tool

*Same sim card on phone as on the Account

*Same Account that got the permission to unlock.

*Find phone feature turned on

*MI Account synced with Mi servers.

*Global Developer Rom installed

*Mi official USB cable (same that came with in the Box)

*Patience

Steps

1. Apply for the unlock permission.(i got mine approved in 2 days)

2. Connect your phone in normal mode to computer and sync it on the computer.

3. Open your browser and log on to MI cloud.

4. Connect to the Mi account on the browser.

5. Now enable Developer option on the phone.

6. Remove all the security features like fingerprint, pattern, pin or anything that that you have to secure your device.

7. Enable USB Debugging, OEM unlock and "Skip Screenlock" (this you will find just above USB debugging)

8. Log in to MI unlock tool and sign in with the same account as on the phone.(The account should have permission to unlock)

9. Connect you phone on Fastboot mode (Volume down+Power)

10. When the phone is detected in the unlock tool hit unlock. (process might fail with the same error "Could not verify the device or the account is different on device")

11. Retry without disconnecting the device. (Mine got unlocked in the 2nd straight attempt using these steps.)

Note: Try to unlock the device as soon as you get the permission. You will fail but try every day once you will succeed in a weeks time.

I got my permission the 3rd day from the day of applying and i have been trying every day. I finally succeeded on the 7th day.

I hope this guide helps most of the people stuck with locked bootloader.

Force Mi Server to register you account with your phone

Just want to help anyone out there with my findings regarding unlocking bootloader the OFFICIAL way for Redmi Note 3 Special Edition (Kate). For people who got stuck at 50% With the message "

"Couldn't verify device,

Current account is different from the account info on the device"

In quick summary, follow instruction from others who might have more details unlocking instruction. what I did additional is step 4.1to 4.5 which get me over the 50% immediately.

More detail procedure

I have MIUI version 8 Global Developer rom (latest) bought from Aliexpress and arrive few days ago.

1. You must get create an MIUI account and apply for an unlock – see MiUnlock

2. Once you follow the instruction in step 1, you will eventually receive the sms your account is granted to unlock (I waited an hour but might varies)

3. In your phone, Setting > MI Account. login using the MIUI account you in step 1 and 2.

This is the critical part

4.2. Go to Setting > Additional Settings > Developer options

4.3. Enable OEM unlocking

4.4. Mi Unlock status tap the button Add account and device – I am guessing this will force Mi server to register you account with this device. So your phone must be online to conduct this step.

4.5. Enable USB Debugging

6. Fastboot you phone Turn off your phone, then holding Volume down and power button at the same time till you see the rabbit.

i dont pass step 4.4 ;/ can't add phone, any ideas ? ive made all other steps correct
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] daz417:
I got this same issue, however, by trying different ideas, i think i might have got a solution here. though i don't know exactly why it worked

Please let me know if that works for you guys.

1. run the mi unlock tool as admin.

2. login with your credentials

3. click unlock, and check if the device is getting unlocked , if yes very well you are lucky,

IF NO

4. keep the app in that state,showing coudnt verify device. dont do anything with the app, dont close it as well. also do not disconnect your phone.

5. go to the folder of mi unlock tool, while holding shift right click, select ''open command window here''

6. cmd will open, and in cmd type ''fastboot devices'' to check if the system has detected your phone.

if the system detects your phone in fastboot mode, you will get your device serial no. there.

7. now enter ''fastboot oem device-info''

8. you will get your device bootloader info

if,it shows

device tampered: false

device unlocked: false

device critical unlocked: false

charger screen enabled: false

thats fine, just to be sure that bootloader is locked ,enter ''fastboot oem lock''

no matter what results you get that should be fine as we are changing nothing. normally it should say OKAY..

if the device info shows as

device tampered: false

device unlocked: true

device critical unlocked: true

charger screen enabled: true [here's how i found the solution for my device]

enter ''fastboot oem disable-charger-screen" [to disable charger screen]

enter '' fastboot oem lock'' [here to ensure that bootloader is locked]

it should say OKAY as a result

9. disconnect the phone, hold voldown + power button till it restarts to fastboot mode again

10. connect the phone to your computer and go back to the mi unlock tool {already running+showing coudnt verify}

Now click on Try Again . This should unlock the bootloader as it did in my case.

Please let me know if that worked.

I'm looking for an outdoor wireless IP camera to mount near my front door. All of the models that I've seen have a huge bunch of non-detachable cables hanging out of the back, which would require drilling a hole of some 2.5-3cm diameter in the wall. Does anyone know of a camera which has a more slimline cabling arrangement, so that only a small hole would need to be created to feed the power cable to the inside of the house?

It´s always green.

Please help and keep moving forward.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Deano1889:
Anyone else noticed and scratches/cracks on the screen?

The damage seems to have appeared from nowhere and there has not been any drops, impact or contact with sharp objects which leads me to believe that my unit may have a slight defect in the screen that causes easy scratching and cracking? The crack is only about 4mm in length and if you run your finger across the scratch there’s a definite crack as your fingernail runs over it.

I’m almost certain that the screen, especially one that’s Gorilla glass should not show signs of damage as mine has with little to no stress.

I’ve emailed HTC on 26th May and yet to get a response.

:(

My HTC 10 dropped from about 15cm and my display is scratched and broken on bottom side!!!

But gorilla glass 3 shouldn't be resistant???

I come from Samsung note 4 dropped few times and display never scratched neither broken!!!

Is it sure HTC 10 uses gorilla glass??
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] last_nooby:
Question: is it possible HTC fraud us not using gorilla glass? How to check it?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] richii0207:
Glass is glass, and will always crack. Consider yourself lucky that the note didn't crack. Perhaps the falls were different because if you drop a phone face down, the chances of cracking the screen are greater than dropping the phone on its back or side.

How much could cost substitute it? They didn't tell me by phone. Approx I mean.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] xperia x root:
Whats wrong with gg3? I mean its nearly the same resistant but its a bit thicker(0,7 mm to 0,4mm). And this is a clear advantage. Take a grab on a lg g5. The glass is so thin and flexi that u can easily bend it by touching it, until its hits the lcd.

Contacting HTC

Have you had any luck with contacting HTC? I've noticed the same on my HTC 10. My three year old HTC M7 hasn't got a visible scratch on it's screen but my new HTC 10 has a couple of bad ones and I haven't dropped it or done anything out of the ordinary.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Deano1889:
Yes I got the below back:

Hi,

Thank you for contacting HTC. We are committed to delivering a great customer experience. We apologize for any inconvenience you have experienced and at the same time, appreciate your patience as we work quickly to address your concern.

I understand that you want to have a working phone without any scratches or crack on the screen. Let me shed some light unto your issue.

You may need to send your device for repair so that we can fix the damages on the screen. Let me set your expectation though that there is a possible quotation if out of warranty damages will be diagnosed on it by our repair facility. Please be advised as well that we are unable to book a repair ticket via email due to security reasons. We highly recommend that you will contact our support hotline at ‎0845 890 0079 (Outside the UK dial +44 203 684 5000‎) so that we can properly process a repair ticket for you.

I hope this information is helpful. If you need further assistance, please feel free to reply to this email.

Again, thank you very much for choosing HTC! We truly appreciate your continued business.

Sincerely,

Christine​

I then replied with the below and heard nothing back:

Hi Christine,

Many thanks for your email.

I have to be honest and say I’m somewhat disappointed that you cannot

guarantee me a screen repair, I believe this is a service that is offered

to your American customers in addition to a free gift of a USB type C

cable? Why isn’t this something that is mirrored on the UK?

I would imagine that the cost of a replacement screen + fitting would be

around the £80 mark and unfortunately not something I can commit to seeing

as I have just paid £512 for the brand new HTC10.

Is there anything you can do to help? Even as a good will gesture for

being such a committed customer?​

So yeah a pretty null shrug off from HTC and I’ve had to resort to using a Spigen screen protector
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] M3thodbombz:
I just dropped mine yesterday. Unfortunately... Went to grab it off the counter and knock it onto the ceramic tile ????

I have a tempered glass screen protector on my phone and nothing happened. Just some minor scuffs on the top of the phone above that grey plastic liner, and a small gouge on the bottom left where the chamfer and flat edge meet which I buffed and filed down so you can barely notice it. Other than that, my screen didn't take a single knick and it even bounced off of the face. I thought screen was going to be cracked for sure. Phone still looks ALMOST brand new besides the minor scuffs you see on the top portion in the back if the light hits it just right.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] LibertyMonger:
Looks to me that they are giving you instructions on how to get it fixed. It is routine practice to warn you that if they find something wrong with it other than you describe that it may not be covered. It should surely be covered but only with Uh Oh protection. One time use. Warranty never guarantees the screen.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] Deano1889:
I'm in the UK. HTC don't offer any kind of Uh Oh protection as they do for those in the US.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] wiQbold:

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] sebas9313:
Mine also cracked badly. Did you hear back from HTC about the potential replacement cost? I tried getting a quote before sending my phone but they are not allowed to :(
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] aer0zer0:
So i asked over the chat, (mine is currently in for screen repair), and they said around 190.00 USD. I'm more concerned with the wait at this point. they have had my phone (in their possession) for over a week and a half, and its still in repair, with no change in the tracking. I have chatted with HTC a couple of times, and i dont really get an answer.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] ivicask:
There is definetely something wrong with this glass, my HTC 10 also has entire spider Web of micro scractches when u view under sun, and today I noticed thicker one, and when u move finger over it you can hear the sound of scratching.

I got my m9 and M8 here, and their screens are near perfect even after those years! I never put keys or anything with phone, also I never dropped my 10, so much disappointed right now..
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] petenice:
I'm new here but I'm posting because of my issues with the HTC 10 screen. I've had may phone for about 2 months and I haven't dropped it or bashed it and I have a single crack on the left hand side running from the top to about 1/3 down the phone.

I contacted HTC several times and they're refusing to repair the screen under warranty - general costs seems to be around £120 to repair.

My suspicion is there's definitely something wrong with the glass - had an HTC One M8 before and I dropped it plenty of times - with no case - and it didn't crack.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] DeadPotato:
Same here, looks like the screen is too prone to scratches for some reason. I used my HTC One M9 for a year and a half without scratches and this have some bad ones after 4 months. In my country at least you have the chance of paying by the repair and use your device until they have the parts ready. Next time I'll use a TGSP + Rhino Shield since day 1
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] ashy.kamal95:
I have the exact same issue. I just got the phone 4 days back :/
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] afuller42:
That has obviously been dropped or something dropped onto it. Not the same issue as these guys are posting
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] ashy.kamal95:
That is the thing. I DID NOT DROP IT OR DROPPED ANYTHING ON IT. If such a thing happened, the tempered glass over it should have cracked too but it didn't. Hell I've never even placed the phone facing down. So it's kinda weird :/
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] afuller42:
Looks like something hit the edge of the speaker causing the cracking which the tgsp is not protecting as to why it didn't crack also

Just what it looks like happened in the photo.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] ashy.kamal95:
Yeah it looks like that but nothing hit the phone at all, trust me. I just left it on the table, went to the washroom and came back to find it like this :/
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] spjetrovic:
May I ask if you have uh/oh protection from HTC?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] petenice:
Nope - uh/oh protection is only available in the US - I'm in the UK. If I want to get this fixed I'm going to have to pay for it even though I didn't do anything to damage the screen.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] richii0207:
Changes in temperature can cause screens to crack. But in HTC's defense, if they were to fix your screen without any cost, what will stop everyone with a cracked screen saying it happened without dropping it and any dents were not associated with the cracked screen?

Glass doesn't crack by itself by just sitting there. It either was hit without you knowing, compressed in pocket, or the change in temperature. Not saying your lying but there is an underlying cause.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] petenice:
I've had a phone for two months which wasn't dropped or bashed so I don't expect the screen to crack. I had an HTC One M8 for two years which I dropped plenty of times and it didn't crack the screen. I think it's justified to feel annoyed about it - believe what you like.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] dugateau:
Not even a day of use ... fragile when hot ... I confirm

Had my HTC10 at lunch hour and by 2AM the screen was broken.

Doing what you say ? ... simply using the device for updates, app installs, configuration and normal screen active stuff. I like to start fresh when I get a new phone. So I spent a lot of time non-stop on it.

I was using wifi and the signal cut a few times for no reason, less than a second so nothing to worry about. So I am not sure if the wifi signal loss is an indication of any heat related issues.

I realized that the phone was hotter than my other ones G3, Note4 but I expected as much from an all aluminium phone. (next time get plastic)

I was sitting at my desk phone in hand, and I decided to plug the power in. The USB Type-C port is a bit tight but maybe that is normal. As soon as I plugged it in the screen cracked at 45 degrees going from the middle of the phone on the left side to the lower corner on the right side.

I am in the process of getting support from Bell on getting it sent to HTC ... but I doubt they will change it for free.

This will teach me not to mess with all metal phones.
