If u want to unlock by officia method then u ll have to wait till xiaomi servers are updated with ur info. U may have have to wait for 7-14 days after receiving unlock permissions. The time may vary. I myself got permission to unlock on 11th june and successful unlocked on 30th. U can try to contact xiaomi on miui forum... Or else unofficial method is available on xda by rajdip.

Miui unlock bootloader

I had the same problem but after I flashed global developer ROM, it was done in seconds.

Make sure that oem unlocking and debugging is ON under developer options. Check if your phone is registered in your MI account. I think your sim card has to be inserted too.

Good luck
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Sumit Samanta:
Tried this too.. still same issue..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] zmajdk:
I don't know if installing xiaomi unified driver will do any difference but when I plug phone while in fastboot, windows shows xiaomi android interface. I installed this driver as unsigned and windows has to be in insecure mode. But again before you boot phone in fastboot, open mi account on your phone and check if phone is verified, must not be unknown.

I have Mi Max to and I unlocked it without any special driver or ROM and on 1st try but with Redmi note 3 SD took me several days.

Insert your SIM card in your phone, flash a MIUI official dev ROM, and try again.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Sumit Samanta:
Already tried
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] droident:
Here's some troubleshooting steps for anyone having this issue:

- Go to https://i.mi.com/ and locate your device

- Turn OFF fingerprint and screenlock security

- Ensure the phone is listed as "Marshall London Bootloader Interface" under Device Manager when in Fastboot mode (phone off, VOL DOWN + POWER). If not, install the driver manually from C:\Program Files\Xiaomi\MiPhone using Device Manager. You will need Mi Suite for this.

- If the above fails, try a different USB port and set the driver manually again

- If it's still not working, remove the account from your phone (but don't delete the backup) and log in using the same credentials on both Mi Unlock and Mi Account. Locate the phone again.

This can ONLY be done on the CN developer ROM. Despite what the xiaomi forums guide says the global ROM will not unlock on kenzo (Qualcomm Redmi Note 3 Pro). You should unrar and flash the CN DEV fastboot update files using MiFlash with "flash all" selected before any of the above will work. You will need to be in EDL mode and USB debugging should be on so "adb reboot edl" via Command Line will work.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] 1manshow:
Facing same issue, tried all of the methods posted here, except flashing another ROM. I'm on Global stable latest. Though my request got approved on 13th, so I guess I might have to still wait a bit more and try later after 2-3 days. Let's see how it goes. Waiting badly to root the device and transfer all my data from Yureka to this phone. Never faced such lengthy and tough procedure for simple bootloader unlock, missing my yureka which was so easy to unlock!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Navi44:
Seems most yureka users are shifting to rn3 ;)

Good luck bro, and see if it gets unlocked with miui8. For me it worked
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] 1manshow:
But with Miui 8 there are some bugs like video recording and other stuffs. I don't want to flash any other ROM unless it's MM stable ROM from Miui itself. Though don't want to mess bootloader service by unlocking officially too.

Can you please let me know the exact steps you followed after getting unlocking permission message from Xiaomi? Apart from changing ROM, I've done almost everything, but I've got permission only on 13th Morning 5 AM IST, and read that many users needed to keep trying for a week to get unlock done successfully past 50%. I'm willing to wait, though if you are sure that changing ROM would resolve this, I can try backup and make a jump. Thanks for your help.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Navi44:
U shouldn't try then.

BTW miui8 based on mm has video recording bug. Others don't have it.

For me switching to miui8 worked in unlocking boot loader.

Since u don't wanna risk anything, just keep trying for a week or more
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] 1manshow:
Thanks a lot mate. Can you please link me the exact ROM here which you flashed to get it unlocked? I'll try with the same ROM after few days if I can't get it to work directly with current Miui 7 stable ROM.

Could anyone help me find a reputable third party software that can flash a locked bootloader? I've been waiting about two weeks now and the official forums have been no help. I tried every trick I could find (removed all security, turned on everything on my phone to sync it to the website i.mi.com so I could find my phone with GPS, etc.) and when none of that worked I even tried to use the Mi PC Suite to recover. Then flash recovery. Then I just straight downloaded the latest Mi ROM to my phone to install it with the Updater in Tools and none of it worked. I'd rather not mess with the official apps that aren't working for me or wait any longer for the official unlock tool. Any help is appreciated as I'm quite new to all of this.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] gimche:
This waiting thing makes no sense to me. This is 21st century, servers get updated instantly. IMHO, it's more about the rom you have atm of trying to unlock.

After reciveving permission, I couldn't unlock with global stable, but global developer worked like charm. If that fails, try china developer.

Does your battery died at certain percentage without warning? Like 25% or so? ... Well this might help :)

Do you remember at what percentage your battery dies without warning? okay. add 10% to it . And remember it.

1) First charge your devices NON-STOP overnight (Atleast 6 hours)

2) Now, drain your battery until the percentage that you remember on the question above.

3) Run my script and follow the instructions when you run the script

4) After done, just drain your battery until 0% (when android automatically shutdown your phone)

5) Then, Charge your devices NON-STOP overnight (Atleast 6 hours)

CAUTION : When the battery is charging . Please dont turn on the device or play with the device !

Done. your battery/Fuel gauge is now calibrated. if the battery/Fuel gauge still not calibrated re-run the steps from 1

Remember! this is still WIP . because this needs more testing! . and because there are no documents or anything about battery calibration on our device..

And last. Please DO NOT do battery pull as it might reset the calibration. please remember this while im trying to search the fix to make the calibration stick :)

[Galaxy Note 4 General] Vybramo:
Root metod ? Without root? more info? :D
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Deleted member 6476447:
2nd recommendation,

1. Charge battery to 100% whether you are at any battery level

eg. If you are at 50% then charge it to full, if you're at 1% then charge to full too

2. After it reaches 100% (green led) , unplug the charger

3. Reboot

4. Battery calibrated
[Galaxy Note 4 General] white7561:
yup :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] white7561:
nah. it wouldnt worked. the fuel gauge isnt gonna calibrated using that method. and our phones have the baseline for percentage so default it know what percentage is your device at. but some of us have this prob. that the fuel gauge believe that the battery is at ex 25% while its actually 0% resulting the internal battery circuit cutoff and the phone just die. thats why we use this method to "tell" the fuel gauge the 100% and 0% limit.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] white7561:
this need root :)

actually i dont have any more info because this is based on "trying" and logics. and because other samsung devices fuel gauge reset not working on our phone
[Galaxy Note 4 General] white7561:
Agree :)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] ph03n!x:
This is the same as doing *#0228# and hitting Quick Start, and that does not need root.

I'm an occasional user of all those rooting methods. Here I'm fairly stuck at the Iovyroot step.

I was able to unlock bootload, to flashboot the thing, to even revert to 5.1.1, but then, at the Iovyroot step, I can no long see where to open the cmd. Even when I enter adb devices or android devices, nothing is shown. Although I changed the path in the variables.

I'm getting frustrated big time with the lack of user friendly infos on those tutos. Half of the stuff I had to search for third party tutos to understand how I should go to the next step. Please, help someone who doesn't have his translator on.

EDIT: Well, in the end I couldn't do the backup part, but I just did the rooting and the phone seems all good. Powerful and versatile tool in my pocket, I'm pretty satisfied. Thank you for the tuto, be more user friendly though next time. Some people come here with little knowledge, they need to find their way properly.

Why so many steps when all you have to do is unlock the bootloader, flash twrp and that's it? I rooted on lollipop so I'm confused where it git so complicated.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] greenkabbage:
The tutorial covers backing up the TA partition that holds the Sony DRM stuff that's used by the camera (and maybe some other stuff).

This is "just in case" the DRM work around stops working, or if something in the future requires the actual TA partition to have the data there.

If you don't care about anything that is affected by the DRM stuff and don't care that not having a backup could prove to be detrimental in the future, you do only need the few steps of 1) unlock bootloader, 2) flash twrp, 3) flash supersu.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] ISO_Metric:

If this rooting turortial is too difficult try this: http://xdaforums.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294

With this app, you can fully debloat your phone on a completely stock firmware, locked bootloader etc. Because its your phone is not rooted though, you cannot get Xposed framework or CM13, or other advanced stuff - but for those of us who wanted root just to clean up our devices - this method is definitly the best!

i tried like 10 times, and always same i cannot download until done,

are you or member in here know where i can download firmware 32.0.A.6.200_R2B (E5803) for unlock and rooting my phone?

thankyou very much

nb: sorry for my bad english.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] firdyRAY:
Hi, you should download the AU Telstra. That's the only working one for that firmware. You can check the firmware of AU Telstra to double confirm if it's the right firmware.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] :
You canr restore TA by running these commands in a windows cmd window:

Enable developer mode, connect USB in ADB mode

adb push "root/iovyroot" "/data/local/tmp/iovyroot"

adb push "root/restore.sh" "/data/local/tmp/restore.sh"

adb push TA-02042016.img "/data/local/tmp/TA.img"

open shell

chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/iovyroot

chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/restore.sh

/data/local/tmp/iovyroot /data/local/tmp/restore.sh

If you want root, there is really no need to restore TA. After restoring your TA, you will loose root and your bootloader will be locked.
[Xperia Z5 Compact General] mhaha:
I believe what you actually want to do is retain your DRM and keep DRM related functions working while rooted, which is possible without restoring TA. The method for that is detailed in this post.

I've done the downgrade to LL, used the exploit to get the TA partition imaged, and have upgraded back to the current build, but not unlocked the bootloader/fixed the kernel/rooted-xposed.

When I unlock with Flashtool it says "Rooting status: Unknown" and I still can't do anything in fastboot.

I feel like there's something wrong with the fastboot partition. If the phone is in fastboot for too long, it starts flickering and vignetting when I get back into the system. Is there a way to reflash the bootloader with a fresh fastboot?
