I had similar experience with a Redmi 5 Plus. If you're willing to open the phone up. You can short the two pins using tweezers. Then use Xiaomi MiFlash to flash the China ROM. Once done, you can now bound the account and wait 360 hours.

Otherwise return it and get your money back.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kucingbaik2:
but add account on binding options , i didnt

mi account status just unlocked
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kucingbaik2:
i dont have any options

just

current account is not bound to this devices

add your account and device in miui setting---developer options---mi unlock status

BUT

in my devices MI Unlock status is UNLOCKED, so i didnt add account to binding
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] Flynhx:
So, you can still use your phone then, no hard brick whatsoever.. Well you didn't answer my question, what miui version you are using? Cause i assume that may be a bug from a tampered rom that's why your seeing Unlocked in your Dev Options and in reality it is still locked. If you can bind your account, bind it then try to unlock it officially via Mi Unlock tool using PC, see if you will get the 360hr waiting time.

But until now there's still no courage to do it....
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] abusalza:
Try flashing with fastboot rom and choose clean all and lock. Otherwise you can try with edl mode

Try the Global 9.5.17 ROM. It is still safe.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kucingbaik2:
are you was tried ??
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] finsx:
I am in 9.5.17 now, it has anti v3, but 9.5.19 has anti v4 already, so don't upgrade to 9.5.19. You can see this article https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-5-pro/how-to/warning-update-to-recent-miui-builds-t3814895 about ARP.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] flint88:
Hi, i also have the same issue as yours.

I believe you purchase the phone in Indonesia as i did. i have tried this method -> en.miui.com/thread-2109262-1-1.html but the issue is still there.

hopefully someone will find the solution for this.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kucingbaik2:
yes...iam so confosed...:crying::crying:

i hope this get resolved soon

are you from indonesian...?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] finsx:
I am from Indonesia too. I bought the device from Batam. The first time i got it, the ROM is Global Stable 9.5.6 (i think it is). So, i upgraded it to 9.5.17 by downloading the full ROM and flashed it by updater, it succeed with nothing wrong happened. I was so lucky i didn't upgrade it to 9.5.19 as it has anti v4.

Have you tried to unlock using Mi Flash tool with present condition? What was the error message? I read this topic from the beginning and you haven't mention the result.

---------- Post added at 01:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:39 PM ----------

Or may be you can try to flash the ROM with built in updater app. Any possible solution is worth to try right? The worst case, you just take your phone to service center, may be they can help you with it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] flint88:
Hi, i have tried using miflash tool and error occur in 99% said that i need to bind my account in developer option.

The thing is that miui status is unlocked in the developer option, so there is no option to bind mi account. Thats why it is called fake ubl.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] kucingbaik2:
yes this problem , since 1 week ago i buy this phone

and now wait i hope get resolved soon
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] flint88:

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] nuainks:
Yes I've tried with the testpoint method. Flashing process by EDL with rom china clean and lock option (to restore first to lock position first). still the status in the developer option is still unlock bootloader position that should have lock position.

btw, in miflash there is a choice of flash clean_lock_crc, maybe someone knows the function of that option.

and I'am sorry if my bad english...thanks

So do I and so sad....:crying:
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] whitefox9000:
:fingers-crossed:We still need best solution for this.

Because I don't think this problem can be fixed with "usual" way like MiFlash or QPST.

I got it too, China version MEE7S Redmi Note 5 4/64.

I already flashing my whyred 9 times(7 times with MiFlash (2 times clean and lock, 2 times clean lock crc, 2 times clean without lock, 1 times save userdata), 2 times with QPST), but still, the bootloader unlock still fake (in developer settings it shows Unlocked, but on fastboot it shows Locked).

IMO if clean and lock, lock command will not working because fastboot knowns the bootloader still locked. That's why "clean and lock" will not relock the bootloader at all.

Even from QPST, it still same.

--

EDIT

Finally I found a way to make it normal locked status.

I found on here (big thanks to lian.lawliet @ kaskus)

You need to do test point twice to proceed this thing.

Prepare 2 Fastboot ROM : 1st : Global Stable, 2nd : China Dev / China Stable; and loader (attached).

Caution : if you want to go for Anti 4 ROM (9.5.22.0 / 8.7.9 and above) or your anti status is 4 (check on fastboot then type fastboot getvar anti), you need to use Anti 4 ROM on 2nd ROM and need to replace rawprogram0.xml with attached file here.

1. Extract all ROM

2. Extract loader and replace the file on 1st ROM (Global Stable) located in *your 1st ROM folder*/images

3. Still in *your 1st ROM folder*/images , edit your rawprogram0.xml , search "persist". then look at " filename="" ", fill "persist.img" so it will looks like " filename="persist.img" " , or you can replace rawprogram0.xml with attached file here.

4. Test point your whyred, flash 1st ROM until stuck on recovery and show caution "This MIUI version can't installed on this device"

5. Turn off your whyred, test point your whyred again, flash 2nd ROM.

6. Congratulations, your whyred normal AF. You can bind your device after flashing 2nd ROM and waiting for some times to unlock your bootloader.

Ok, thanks for your information, please kindly update us once you have tried with miflash 2018
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] whitefox9000:
Of course you need to fill the persist.img

Anyway if you can't flash, download anti 4 fastboot ROM and edit the rawprogram0.xml only without replacing loader, fill the "persist.img"
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] flint88:
Hi, just want to make sure, have you tried by yourself to fix fake ubl in anti 4 ROM?

I contacted lian.lawliet @ kaskus yesterday about fixing fake ubl in anti 4 ROM and he said he have not found solution for anti 4 ROM
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] whitefox9000:
not yet, because my whyred is on anti 3 when I fix it.

IMO, when fixing my whyred using lian.lawliet method, I using my own way to fix fake UBL : I'm using 9.5.13.0 Global Stable on 1st ROM, then I'm not replacing my loader with lian.lawliet 's loader, and just fill "persist.img" in rawprogram0.xml , and it works (stuck on recovery).

Maybe you can try to only fill "persist.img" and you MUST USE anti 4 ROM to avoid hard brick (because flashing anti 3 ROM on anti 4 whyred can brick your whyred itself).

of course he not found solution for anti 4 yet because he not have anti 4 device until this moment.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] tatun:
if you in 9.5.19 just replace rawprogram0 no need replace loader again,so you must have an authorized account MI

Please make sure you have authorized mi account or borrow from someone

note : looks like 1 xiaomi account can only flash once in 1 day, error "request failed" will occur if you flash more than once in a day

7. after flash, your phone will stuck in recovery mode, congrats! your phone back to locked state

8. choose "connect with mi assistant" in the recovery mode

9. Download and install xiaomitool -> http://www.xiaomitool.com/

How to report bug to Asus team using bug report app

I can't find the app in app drawer but in app installed I can see bug report application

I am thinking that we all should report camera2api disabled.... enable it via FOTA

I simply don't want to do that unlock and relock stuff just becoz if any OTA messes with that then I have to do it all over

Previously I was a Redmi note 3 user and I use to install hell lot of ROMs just to find good performance and stability...but on this PRO M1 I am totally satisfied with what it gives.... I am not a camera but but I would love to have a more simple camera ui which gcams provide...what you guys say will this work out??

Or will Asus ever give a FOTA with camera2api enabled

I am on stock ROM v311
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] abubin:
If you are not a camera guy then the UI should not bother you much cause gcams does not make use of the dual camera function of the phone. It uses software to achieve the bokeh effects. As for the picture quality, both cams are almost the same now. Asus has improved their camera taking quality since the last 2 update.

---------- Post added at 07:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:30 AM ----------

This is the same thought that bothers me. I have been requesting Asus to enable camera2api before the last two updates, through the Online Chat facility in the Service Centre app. Still now, I am requesting them and I have a hope that they'll enable it in the future. In my opinion, if a wider audience requests the same to them through that app, they'll surely enable it...
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] compnird:
Recently bought a used Nexus 7 LTE for my son to use after he broke his tablet. Trying to get Lineage OS on it but I cannot see it via USB on anything...

Windows 8 - Doesn't see the device at all, nothing listed in Device Manager. Device is charging off USB cable.

Tried 5 known good cables. Same cable on same computer with different devices works.

Ubuntu - Nothing shows in lsusb - Same as above, tried many cables and all charge the device but nothing will connect.

Device has USB Debugging enabled, I've also tried it disabled.

MTP is enabled, also tried the PTP with same results.

I have tried the official Google drivers as well as older drivers found within these forums.

Not even a generic or invalid device shows in Device Manager on Windows.

Used Android Studio to install Google Drivers, still nothing.

I've tried factory reset and wipe cache partitions. Never shows up.

I am assuming at this point the device has a bad USB port. I am hoping perhaps I missed something and someone knows what that is. I've culled the forums and a LOT of these had similar issues but mostly driver related. I cannot even see it to try different drivers. Some were cable but I've tried many cables that work in other devices.

Are there any other ways to connect to the device to do the OEM unlock and install TWRP and Lineage?

Device is bone stock with Android 5.1 (BUILD LMY470) - Connects to WiFi and LTE network just fine.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] compnird:
Fixed

RESOLVED:

Installed a Root app (KingRoot) and rooted device.

Installed official TWRP app, downloaded and installed TWRP bootloader

Downloaded latest Nightly of Lineage OS, used Astro File manager to move to root

Rebooted into TWRP, Wiped System/Data/Cache/Dalvik

Installed Lineage OS ROM.

Rebooted.

Profit.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] k23m:
It is an interesting workaround but the main issue is not resolved. It looks like a hardware fault, there are 3 possibilities:

1 broken data contacts of the USB port

2 unsoldered data lines between the USB port and the PCB

3 disconnected USB data lines between the daughterboard and motherboard

Most likely is #2 but the easiest is #3 which can be fixed by re-seating of the wide, silver cable interconnecting the PCBs. All you have to do:

- disconnect the battery

- unlock the cable's connectors

- pull out and push it back in

- relock

- reconnect the battery

Good luck.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] B3.mach:
Hi all,

Apologies in advance for using this post but I have a similar issue with my device. I accidentally ejected the device while I was transferring some data to my computer instead of a memory stick. Usually the computer should say operation is invalid since the device is in use however without any prompts it ejected the device.

So now when I plug my Nexus into my laptop via USB the device is recognised for a second and disconnects and then reconnects and carries on this pattern. I've tried a number of different methods that I researched online including:

Deleting the drivers and reinstalling them

Changing USB power settings

None of the above and fixed the issue of being unable to connect to my computer via USB. Has anyone come across this problem before and if so can you recommend a potential fix?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] k23m:
Hi, while it appears that your PC is responsible for the issue, please check the N7 on another PC or with a OTG drive. When you're sure your N7 and USB cable are OK, we can fix the PC but what OS is on it? If it is Windows then do the following:

- disconnect N7

- run "regedit.exe"

- delete these keys

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\USB\Vid_18d1&Pid_4ee1

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\USB\Vid_18d1&Pid_4ee2​

- reboot PC

- reboot N7

- connect N7

OK?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] B3.mach:
Hi k23m,

Thank you the reply. I can confirm one of the first things I tried was connecting the device to a different laptop - where it connected properly. Both laptops are using Windows 10 and I've tried different USB cables to confirm that the wire isn't at fault either - so know my original laptop has the issue.

So I've attempted your the instructions you mentioned and the first thing I noticed was when I was in the Registry Editor there was no 4ee1 and just 4ee2. I attempted to delete the registry files for 4ee2 and came across the error messaged that states, 'Cannot delete VID_18D1&PID_4EE2: Error while deleting key.'. I had a look on the internet to see if there was a solution to deleting the files and it mentioned to modify the permissions as well as using a few programs to delete them. However after attempting these instructions still luck in deleting them.

Any further suggestions?

Thanks
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] k23m:
Please get https://github.com/jschicht/RunAsTI and extract it, then...

- right-click RunAsTI64.exe and run it as admin

- in the newly created command window type and run "regedit"

- delete the VID_18D1&PID_4EE2 key

- search the entire registry for ALL "VID_18D1&PID_4EE1" keys and delete them (if found any)

- reboot PC!

Also, can you confirm that a different device connects properly to the faulty PC using the MTP protocol? If not, then deleting 4EE1/4EE2 will not help and the issue will have to be further explored.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] B3.mach:
Hi k23m,

Once more thank you for the instructions. I can confirm my mobile connects to my laptop fine through a MTP protocol connection with no issues. I've downloaded the files as deleted the keys and values as mentioned but still no success.

Thanks
