For those that managed to unlock, does it wipe data?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ger_kar:
Change device certification from "non-certified" to "certified".

Anyone who has lost the refit in the Play Store after flashing a BETA-ROM can easily change it.

Download and install the Preferences Manager Version 1.8.3 app on the Play Store. Issue the App Root and search for and open the term "Google Play Store." At the top there is a status bar, where you can swipe right to the term: "finsky.xml". Now scroll down to the term: "device.google-certified" and click on it. There, slide the slider to the right from "false" to "true" and confirm with "Update". That's it, now it is displayed in the Play Store at "Device Certification: Certified".

But twrp does not support encrypted storage as of now.

So you decrypted storage first then root with twrp ?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] gaurav.5125:
Yes, it does a factory reset after unlocking bootloader. So backup your data first, if any. I unlocked yesterday and my data got wiped.

For everyone who have unlocked your bootloader, can you check if your GPS is working fine because I'm unable to play Pokemon GO and also OLA can't predict my location. Google map also can't locate me.

GPS is on high accuracy, location history ON. Location access granted to these apps. Tried rebooting. Still no luck.

Help please!!

Don't know why, but GPS started working just now.

MI unlock tool doesn't detect Poco

MI Unlock tool doesn't recognize my Poco Device

MI unlock tool versions tried "2.3.803.10" and "3.3.525.23", It's showing "not connected to the phone" all the time

Enabled OEM unlock,

Enabled USB debugging,

Logged into MI Unlock tool

Booted to fastboot screen

But the MI unlock tool doesn't detect the device.

I've installed usb-drivers, ADB drivers, Qualcomm drivers.. Tried on 2 different computers.. Still no use.

What might be the issue here? What I'm doing wrong? Please help!

Hi, which version? I used miflash_unlock-en-3.3.827.31, it's my 3rd Xiaomi device and I have to wait 72 hours, actually 56 hours left.

I can confirm Ryzen (1600X) fastboot / unlock issues, strange.

Had to use Windows 10. Now I'm able to connect the device, but still 47 hrs left to unlock.

Not any fastboot issues on Core i5 laptop but on Ryzen it's a different story. I hope Xiaomi's gonna fix it cause I think that's what ruined the Mi A2 I received earlier.

Is it normal that poco f1 has still no custom rom development?

I had lenovo z2 plus. I guess kind of similar case like poco, 800 series soc in 20000 inr but it has ton of development and still holds till date.

Is it me? Or no dev has much interest in f1?

No offense to Devs....
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] anuragm13:
Some questions...

Q1. For how many days your mi account was binded with poco f1 before you went to unlock? (For how many days was your account logged in to poco f1 before you attempted to unlock it?)

Q2. Which MiFlash version did you use?

Q3. Did it wipe data? If yes, please specify which data (app data, all user data including internal storage)

I had no data on the phone to begin with, it was just completely new. Though it didn't reset the phone either.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] raj7749:

So i used the version 3.3.827.31 of mi unlock withinhrs after initial setup, and got 72hrs of wait time. Someone said that v 2.2.406.5 instantly unlocks the bootloader, is it ok if i use the v2 now? Or should i wait?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] anuragm13:
It's strange, hmmm....

So unlocking didn't factory reset your phone

But everywhere else it did. They had to re-setup their devices as it was just unboxed.

When unlocking, did the miunlock tool give any warning that userdata wil be erased?

Before proceeding to unlock was there any lock screen security (password, pin, pattern)? Or you proceeded to unlock with no lock screen security?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] slead1:
I had no lock on the screen in the first place.

It just out of the box and I went on to unlock the bootloader.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] anuragm13:
Ok so after unboxing you set up the phone, added google and mi accounts and without setting a lock screen password you headed to unlock the bootloader, and since there was no screen lock, therefore the miunlock tool may have assumed that there was no sensitive data and hence it did not factory reset the device on unlocking.

And hence we found out a way to unlock the bootloader without suffering any data loss. Yay!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Guides, News, & Discussion] slead1:
I am not sure if that is the case, certainly back all your stuff up before you do attempt an unlock.

If there is a log file in the unlock tool folder then I will check it this afternoon once I am at home, just to see what it says.

Strange hours counting when trying to unlock te Poco

I see you guys getting the Poco unlocked, it's not working for me :confused:

96 hours ago, i made an Mi account. I followed the intructions and waited for a bit more then 72 hours (76 to be exact) an tried to unlock the phone. It didn't work, the message was the same as what i saw 30 minutes ago, only today it says 2 hours (just like 6 hours ago) en yesterday the message was "After 20 hours of trying to unlock the device".

I am getting "slightly" irritated :( :mad:

I've read the instructions on http://en.miui.com/thread-246705-1-1.html, but this morning it was 2 hours and now (6 hours later) it's stil 2 hours.

If you want to unlock bootloader on the F1, you make a request to Xiaomi and then wait for upto 72 hours for your request to be approved.

[Moto G4 Questions & Answers] AlexBMoto:
My phone started behaving very strangely, turning on/off randomly and freezing for long periods. I used twrp to wipe my phone in a desperate attempt to get it working again, but unfortunately it only made my device worse. I tried to flash stock firmware since it started acting up but the device isn't able to connect to my computer as I had usb debugging switched off, the phone is in such a state where I can't get past my sim pin screen as it freezes then turns itself off each time. I wish I had thought really cannot afford another phone just now so I would like to know if it is salvageable or if it's a complete write off.

What is the best launcher to install ?

The two things I want are to be able to hide apps, and to have to swipe up to access app drawer as opposed to having an icon for it.
