You can follow this video [youtube]o7ddct87qSw[/youtube]

When you login to miflashtool, it says checking if the account has unlocking permissions. If your account does have unlocking permissions, you should be able to proceed further as shown in the video and an error will be shown at 99% telling you the number of hours you have to wait before unlocking, if it does not move past the checking if account has unlocking permissions or shows some error at that step, then you need to apply for unlocking permissions. Remember, the mi account you use for logging in to these services should be the same as the one on your device.

Hi,

if I unlock and root redmi note 7 pro, will become "global" and receive the normal update like the normal 7 in global version ?

Thank u
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sanarise:
Thanks for the detailed guide covering everything needed to unlock the bootloader and flash on twrp!

Is there any estimate on when the 'flashing a custom firmware' part of this guide will be added?

I'm very new to all of this, and would really appreciate having a guide for that too.

Especially considering I accidentally managed to softbrick my phone when I tried to restore a backup through twrp to solve a bootloop issue I had. (I have fixed it, at least)

---

No, unlocking the phone just allows you to flash other roms onto your phone.

If you want to get the Global version of MIUI on your phone, you will need to download the rom for it, and flash it onto your phone.

You can get the latest global rom for the RN7P (violet) here:

https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-7-pro/how-to/miui-10-official-stable-updates-v10-2-7-t3913181

This should let you get global updates from the official updater on your phone, but I'm not 100% sure.

My facebook app keeps crashing whenever i play a live video or try to share something. This is happening since today morning. I've a rooted phone with Magisk, Edxposed & only two modules - Xposed edge & XprivacyLua. XprivacyLua is what I installed latest (yesterday) but I didn't restrict fb app in any way. But now that I've disabled the module, cleared fb app data, uninstalled & reinstalled fb app, it still crashes. Please help.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gannjunior:
Thank you for your answer mate. How can I be sure your hypothesis is correct? (it sounds correct for me)

Any chance to find someone could give some further informations?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sanarise:
Even if you did flash on the MIUI rom linked and it didn't update for some reason, nothing negative would come from trying.

I'm pretty sure when I did it, I did receive an update through it, but I can't quite remember as I was only really doing that to recover from a soft brick so I could try to flash on a custom rom instead.

I was trying to unlock my Redmi note 7 pro. It asked 360 Hours , before 3 days, Today I was just trying to check the process is working or not before 1 day It was less than 360 Hours. Today I just tried to unlock my phone and it just unlocked!!!

So those people are waiting to unlock for 360 hours.Just try your Luck
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Sanarise:
I'd be careful about constantly trying your luck with unlocking the phone though.

I came across a few places when looking for a way around the timer, including xiaomi's own forums, saying that repeated attempts to unlock your phone can actually decrease the chances of it getting unlocked instead.

is it possible to relock the bootloader after flashing a custom rom? I want my bootloader locked incase it gets stolen ,i dont want to make it easier for the thief to reflash another rom
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] lightdarkx:
Guys can u help me. My note 7 pro is detected by adb and fastboot(using adb reboot and fastboot reboot) but miflash is unable to recognize it. Installed the drivers given but no luck.

Edit:- After searching for similar issues, found out that this can happen due to some weird bug in Windows 10.

Solution:- No generic solution, but can try win 7 in virtual machine( worked for me) or other pc ( preferably win 7)

Hmmm I got a message, saying that I should wait 648 hours in order to unlock it .. that's 27 days. I've had the phone for around a month now, but I didn't have time to set it up until now .. but it has been on for at least 20 days. What is this wait period based on??
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Naveenthemi:
It isn't based on anything in particular, just a measure by Xiaomi to put you off from unlocking the device, also it probably won't take that long mine said 360 hours but I was able to unlock on the 7th day
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] surfistche:

how to unroot?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] surfistche:
Ok, so I ran in the the following issue. The PC I use to check the remaining time until I am able to unlock the devices stopped recognizing my device.

I used the following method to install the drivers initially.

After the last update, when I tried to check my unlock status the PC didn't seem to recognize my device. When I checked, driver was missing from Device Manager. I did uninstall what ever was installed, but when I tried to install the driver anew, manually, as in the article above, it said that windows can not find drivers in the folder for my device. I am running Win7 Pro.

This issue occurred after the latest MIUI update.

When the phone is on and connected, I need to select "File Transfer" from the menu, in order for the phone to appear as ADB Device. As soon as I go into Fastboot mode, it won't detect it as a bootloader device.

Any help on solving this issue?

Can someone help?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Naveenthemi:
Technically speaking some service centres don't accept it rooted and some do, but you can always unroot and they won't know the difference..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] gautamajay52:
Before rooting, i have to unlock the bootloader.

And i think this unlocking bootloader will void my warranty.

If i wnt to revert back to original, can i lock my bootloader again that they can't know?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Naveenthemi:
Yes you can lock your bootloader again too! But don't lock it on. A Custom ROM, only lock again if you are using MIUI

No, you can't change ROMS until you unlock so you have to stay on the current ROM. No, such region changes are not required.

Great to hear! By the way who is Peter? Peter who? And did you face any other issues that you had which by now are fixed? Any reboot issue or with touch-screen? Are there any common problems that are not fixed yet? If there are then would be great to know.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Naveenthemi:
Petercxy is the developer who made a custom version of TWRP, which allowed the system to decrypt with your password instead of formatting it (u had to format on the official one). Here's the link (https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-7-pro/development/unofficial-twrp-3-3-1-proper-t3933531).

Rooting or unlocking your bootloader won't affect the screen or cause any issues, such problems only happen when you mess around and make dangerous critical changes (like flashing incompatible ROMS and such). If you use Magisk to root you can pass the SafetyNet and use MagiskHide to hide your root from Google Playstore otherwise some banking apps and apps like Netflix won't work.

Hey guys, new to Rn7pro..

So, once I get it unlocked, then flash latest TWRP, then boot into it and root the device. OK.

If I wanna flash available custom Rom, then need to format inorder to get rid of encryption issues, right??

OK, can someone link me what is latest working TWRP. Thanks!

First take a backup of all your data, then wipe all the partitions (literally all), then connect the device to a PC and flash MIUI through the MiFlash tool (before flashing select the clear_and_lock option in the bottom right)..

This should give you MIUI back and lock the bootloader too.
