I have requested a bootloader unlock and gotten a SMS from Xiaomi.

The interesting thing is that I checked and it says that the Bootloader is unlocked, both in the menu options and via "fastboot oem device-info".

But I didn't use the MiUnlocker tool.

Am I good to go or should I run the MiUnlocker?

your mi forum name,, have you checked my guide?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aj.GaLaxY aCE:
use mi unlocker tool, if it says bootloader unlocked. You can do whatever you want.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] Aj.GaLaxY aCE:
it doesnt matter, thats an un-necessary step.

Even i kept getting the error 8602 with soem chinese. Read the guide and you will be ok.

Hey guys i have a question. my device is xiaomi redimi note 4 64/4 gb snapdragon

So the problem is, when i set OEM unlocking (allow the bootloader to be unlocked) in developer options to "on" it doesnt stay turned on.

When i exit dev options and enter back in its set to off

im running dev global miui9 beta 7.8.31

im getting stuck after verifying in mi unlock tool. it goes to 100% and then just stops..

now i have to wait 44hrs, also my request got approved by en.miui.com and i followed all steps on the tutorials

Thanks :*

---------- Post added at 02:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:08 AM ----------

alright ive managed to enable oem unlocking by tapping on it and entering my pattern

but im still getting stuck at "unlocking" in mi unlock tool, do i really have to wait for 44 hours?

and will i really work after 44 hours or am i making another mistake somwehere else?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] laida9396:
Maybe it depends on luck when you want to unlock. Some users must wait for 72 hours, some again must wait for 7 days, if you can unlock it in one try then maybe you're the luckiest person in the world.

after unlock & maybe root is one still able to update MIUI OTA or do I need to download zip and install manually through updater? Will unlock and root remain or get lost?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] GabrielScott:
OTA might fail after been rooted , also same as updater app.

So downloading the OTA update zip manually is necessary and dirty flash it through twrp.

If its official MIUI ROM, flashing the new update will ERASE twrp and root. And yes it will remain unlocked.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] edwardenglish:
thanks for your reply

I applied for unlock, followed the guide from OP and connected my phone with runnning Mi Unlock. After I signed in Mi unluck states "Your Device isn't supported by Mi Unlock". Does this mean I just have to wait or is there a general problem?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] GabrielScott:
You have to fill in the application form first.

http://en.miui.com/unlock/

Have you already did this?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] edwardenglish:
Yes, I filled out the form entering reason for unluck and all stuff, then I received a SMS with a token and I entered it on the website, then a chinese pop-up appeared I couldn't read it nor was I able to copy it to a translator. But I figured this would be OK.

I bound my device in settings multiple times (to the same account).

EDIT

Just tried it another, possible 5th time, and now there was no pop-up BUT the site stated that my application was successfully received. Guess the pop-up should've get me thinking, because it didnt seem right.

EDIT2

Now it seems to have worked I received a second SMS yesterday to confirm the quest for unlock.

Later that day i tried to unlock but it was stuck at 99% saying I should try again in 25hours.

O_O
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] watafak:
I have succesfully unlocked it today. Waited for 8 days, didn't get any SMS, so I decided to try and wuolia!

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] nischait:
Good news after trying a few days and it's got unlocked.

I don't check unlocking in past 5 days

Today I enable OEM unlocking but it disabled by itself on miui 7.9.7 . So I enable usb debugging (security settings) and usb debugging both and switch off mobile . After that bootloader unlocked successfuly.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] baxtex:
One word of warning. It's not possible to input numbers in the name field when requesting the code. I had numbers in my forum name so I wrote it inside the message instead. When I am to confirm my phone number on the unlocking page, I constantly get a message in chinese that says 您所在的IP申请次数超标, translated to The number of IP requests you have exceeded. This happens everytime I try to request. I even tried turning my vpn on and using different ip's, still the same problem!

How much more i have to wait to unlock my device. I got the permission on 7th of sep n still i cant unlock. Its always on 99% that is your device is not bound. Help needed:highfive:
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] krasCGQ:
Wait for at least a week after you bind your account in Mi Unlock status. Ignore 86012 error if it ever appears.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] vivek638:
In my case there is no any error only stuck at 99%.

As u said i will wait 4 days more hope it get unlock after that

Do anyone have a tutorial/guide for how to install the developer rom?

Um I have that sceen aswell. Does it mean my bootloader is unlocked? All I did was logging in with my xiaomi account that hasn't yet been "accepted".

I ran the fastboot command to see if it was unlocked: https://imgur.com/a/e8l2x

Is it unlocked? It came with global rom so maybe that's why? Can I flash TWRP now?

Seems like it worked. Installing TWRP and Lineage OS working just fine! :D
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] nischait:
For installing developer rom first you have to enable usb debugging and then allow phone attachment with pc.

Note: Internet connection is required before proceeding .

Make sure your pc have power backup( UPS or Inverter)

Now begin

Download & install Xmt (www.xiaomitool.com)

Run the tool

Connect phone in power on condition

Wait for process done by tool

Your device restarts several times during process

Don't stop the tool and don't disconnect phone.

After whole process you got your device connected in tool

Select

Go forward

Now you will see many roms as per your device.

Select required rom

Download & install ( This tool works on locked and unlocked both bootloaders)

First time your device take time to start up.

Done

Enjoy:good:

Next your bootloader is unlocked as per your attached picture.

Before installing twrp do some research then go further

Also flash lazy flasher using twrp before booting otherwise you will be stuck.

Good luck

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Guides, News, & Discussion] vumanizer:
It appears that I need a reason to request bootloader unlock. If I don't have a "good" reason Xiaomi will reject my request? What would be their motivation for regulating such requests and what would you think would be a "good" reason to give them for unlocking?

Also I just got the phone ( SD Global ) and have never tried the MIUI rom before. I would like to try some other Roms to see if I can get the camera to work a little better ( I've got an omnivision sensor ). What are the pros and cons of unlocking the bootloader? Are there security issues if I do? Can I revert back to the original MIUI if I decide to?

I had an htc Evo 3d and now that was a pain. Had to brick it then use special software to recover it. You should be happy that you don't have to go through that. Heck you should be doing head stands that you can even unlock the device. There are so many devices that are not able to do it.
