[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] marstonpear:
Hi, I am writing this guide because many people followed other guides in the forum and lost their data. This is the proper way of unlocking the bootloader without losing your data.

0 - Read the whole guide before proceeding and proceed at your own risk!

1 - Make sure you have adb and fastboot installed on your device,

For Windows follow this guide (I suggest installing it system-wide, so that you can execute commands from every directory on your PC): https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2588979

For MacOS and Linux : https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/

2 - After the required tools are installed go to Settings -> About Phone on your phone and keep tapping on build number until a toast notification tells you that the developer settings are enabled.

3 - Go to Settings -> System -> Developer Settings and enable OEM unlocking option.

4 - Turn off the phone and when it's fully off, hold power + vol down button to boot into fastboot mode. When you've done this step successfully, you will see a blue FASTBOOT text on the screen with a bunny scrambling the internals of Android.

5 - Connect your phone to your PC and open a CLI/terminal/PowerShell window and type this but do NOT hit enter :

fastboot oem unlock

when you are ready to execute the command, start pressing only vol down button and then hit enter, HOLD vol down until the phone boots into fastboot mode again. This basically tricks the phone to boot into Fastboot mode instead of erase mode. To make sure the phone doesn't boot into erase mode on the next boot you need to do the following:

6 - While in fastboot mode type this into the CLI/terminal/PowerShell window but do NOT hit enter :

fastboot reboot

when you are ready to execute the command, start pressing only vol down button and then hit enter, HOLD vol down until the phone boots into fastboot mode again.

7 - Now you are ready to boot into your system. Either boot by holding power button or typing

fastboot reboot

into the terminal and hitting enter.

By rebooting twice, you make sure the phone doesn't boot into erase mode. If you flash the stock ROM beforehand and setup your device (login to Play Store), your device will still be Play Store certified by this method. But if you unlock the bootloader and the phone erases its storage, you won't be able to download apps like Netflix, because your device will not be certified by Play Store, this is because the Play Store checks for unlocked bootloaders. But by making it check the certification while it's locked and then unlocking the bootloader, you can make this issue go away. Feel free to ask for more proper guides for dummies, if you need. I have bricked my device many times and learnt by trial and error, so I'd be happy to make you avoid those same mistakes. Cheers.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Os_Herdz:
No need double reboot
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] marstonpear:
It is not necessary, but a preventative measure. I've had instances where I hadn't rebooted twice and the phone booted into erase mode. This is a guide for people who want to make sure they won't lose data.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] RFD80M-75679:
Another tip:

If you're with stock everything and don't want to loose data, do not boot into recovery mode (power + vol+) as it sometimes try to wipe data without any confirmation. Did happened here once, back in March 2019, but thankfully my pictures and most data are stored in MicroSD card.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] marstonpear:
Can confirm, if your bootloader is unlocked and you don't have TWRP installed, booting into recovery mode will wipe the device.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] softgadget:
When I type fastboot oem unlock and press enter, a screen shows on the device to select unlock or do not unlock. Then what?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] RFD80M-75679:
It shouldn't ask you to unlock phone or not in fastboot mode, as what I did unlocked mine for months ago. It should return you to fastboot mode in a flash (a fraction of seconds) and manually restart your phone by holding up power button until you'll see unlocked warning and AndroidOne logo.

If it is, try to select "unlock", but your data may wipe afterwards.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] softgadget:
I am running Android 10 latest update on my Mi A2 and my phone shows a screen to select Unlock or Not to Unlock options. It is in fastboot mode. What is the problem?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] RFD80M-75679:
You have another device. This is for Mi A2 Lite, not Mi A2. And on top of that, it works for Android Pie. I don't know for stock Android 10 since we (Mi A2 Lite users) don't have it yet (as of my writing).
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] softgadget:
Oh. OK then.thank you
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] popadic022:
I downgrade to oreo and now when power om phone show message that is bootloader unlocked, so can lock again bootloader to remove that message without lost data or must live with that? If can do that, how? I forgot to say after flash oreo bootloader was locked, but i must unlock again to fix sim cards.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] marstonpear:
You can unlock with the same method. But I believe you will flash a zip from TWRP to fix SIM cards and that will break your phone if you lock the bootloader. So after fixing the SIM cards, you need to leave the phone unlocked, otherwise phone will be bricked. If you want to get rid of the ugly splash screen, you can flash a custom splash you can find in the forum.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] gusbalaa:
So after unlocked the devices, it's recommended to install TWRP to avoid this right ?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] RFD80M-75679:
You can leave it as is, but don't ever boot into recovery if you value your data from Internal Storage or if haven't backed up data to MicroSD.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] gusbalaa:
I think I'm gonna install TWRP for safety, my data is already on MicroSD.

EDIT : Is possible to install TWRP & Root without losing data / need to flash Decrypt ?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] marstonpear:
You don't need to decrypt. You can install TWRP and flash Magisk through TWRP.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] gusbalaa:
Thanks, already done it.

Flashed TWRP & Magisk without losing any data.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] -fluffy-:
will this metode also work on mi10
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] marstonpear:
I'm not sure but probably not. Because Mi 10 is a MIUI device and this is an Android One. Still you gotta try to make sure, but the risk is all yours. Cheers.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] konan82:

Hi, i have been unlock bootloader!

But now, i want know if i can update via OTA or not.

And i am having trouble to keep TWRP.. i can install in fastboot, but when i go to use again, appears the factory setings.

Sorry about the questions, and sorry about my poour English.. i'm Brazillian.

Tks
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] marstonpear:
With unlocked bootloader you can update via OTA.

If you install TWRP, you will not be able to update via OTA.

If you want to install TWRP, you need to boot TWRP with this command :

fastboot boot twrp.img

then you need to install TWRP installer ZIP in the TWRP.
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Gabriel_Ricardo:
Ok, thank u so much! :)
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] Eyebrain123:
Hey marstonpear, thanks a lot for putting up a guide like this so others can benefit from your previous experiences and trial and errors learnings.

I'd like to flash my Xiaomi A2 Lite with the latest Android 8 Oreo version but I am not sure how I am going to do that. I don't want to lose Play Store Apps like Netflix. I don't really need rooted phone although it would be an extra nice. Do you think it's possible i can roll-back to the last stable stock Oreo?
[Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion] marstonpear:
It is possible, download the Oreo ROM you want to use and download MiFlash (20160401) from here : https://www.xiaomiflash.com/download/

You're downloading that particular version because it is able to EDL flash on your phone. Install the MiFlash you've downloaded and open it, then back up your data on your phone and then put it into fastboot mode. Connect it to your PC and use this code to take the phone into EDL mode ( you need to have bootloader unlocked ) :

fastboot oem edl

After you hit enter, you will see the screen turn off and notification LED blinking, this is normal. This means the phone is in EDL mode. Open the MiFlash you've installed (likely in C:\Program Files\Xiaomi\MiPhone) and browse to the Oreo ROM location and connect the phone. Choose "Flash All" and start flashing.

After the EDL flash is complete the phone will not reboot. It will stay in EDL mode. You need to disconnect the phone from PC and hold vol. down + power button to boot the phone into FASTBOOT instead of regular boot. You need to hold it for about 10-15 seconds and you NEED to boot into fastboot. If the phone starts booting normally, interrupt it by holding power button + vol. down to reboot into fastboot. After you are in fastboot mode, you need to lock the bootloader with this command :

fastboot oem lock

After you've run the code, let it erase the storage and boot normally.

Now here's the tricky part. After the phone boots into the OS, you need to skip through the setup so that the phone does not start installing the updates. Do NOT connect the phone to the Wi-Fi yet. Just skip through the setup as fast as you can and enable developer settings, then go into developer settings and disable "Automatic System Updates". You can half swipe the update notification later and disable notifications from system updates altogether. As long as you don't tap Install in the updates section, the phone will not install the update.

After you've done this, you need to go ahead and connect to Wi-Fi and setup your Google account. After your Google account is setup and your device is certified in Play Store (you can check by going to Settings in Play Store), you are ready to unlock the bootloader using this guide and do whatever modification you want. Remember, you need to see "Device is certified" in Play Store. This usually happens when Play Store and Play Store libraries are updated automatically. Try closing and opening the Store a few times to see Device is certified there. Play Store will check for an unlocked bootloader and your device's bootloader will be locked when it checks for the first time, so it will certify your device. But after your device is certified, you can do whatever you want to do with it. PM me if you have further questions. Cheers.

So, the one thing left not working is the camera? Any hope of fixing that?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] bigcletus:
Thanks for releasing this. Can't wait to give it a try. Curious about the zram vs no zram. What is that? Also, what is dtb? Thanks again.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Triodexe:
Hi

For the Camera bug i still try to get this fixed.

[MENTION=833525]bigcletus[/MENTION]

Rom with Zram have 510MB Compressed RamSwap that you can increase with Kernel Managers like the StockRoms

Rom without Zram didnt have this :)

The Dtb is needed for the correct Charging Amps and Voltage Regulation so if you notice after flash the Rom that Quickcharge isnt working flash the Dtb again with Fastboot. :)

Greats Triodexe
[Shield Tablet Android Development] bigcletus:
I tried to install ROM (no Zram), but got stuck on Nvidia logo bootloop. Came from LOS 14.1 ROM, wiped everything mentioned except internal storage.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Triodexe:
Hi

Did u use the Latest Twrp 3.3.1 to flash the Rom ?

For the Bootloop i dont know yet why it happens sometimes have the same problems again after a few restarts device stucks at Nvidia Logo but after manualy Poweroff/On its boots most af the time .

Guess there is a problem with one of the Governours/Shedulers i added or the Exfat Kernel Support.

But curios is the same stuff works in the Aosp4.6 Roms.

Could be that the Old Nvidia Vendor Blobs arent so good for Oreo based Roms but the newer ones from Shield Tv have no Hardware Accleration yet

But Dmesg didnt help me for this when i boot into recovery device always boots

You could try flash another Kernel the K1 Nougat from bleeblob or Bitos Kernel Version 10 should work better

So i reflashed the nozram over my Rom again and got no bootloop only wiped cache and dalvik

Could you look Into your Internal storage if there is some stuft left Form the Old Rom Apps and Magisk

Stores the Data there.

Greats Triodexe
[Shield Tablet Android Development] bigcletus:
I am using TWRP 3.2.3. I have flashed LOS 14.1 and 15.1 with this version of TWRP but maybe this rom needs the newer version?

I will try again when I have more time and I'll wipe the internal storage as well. Thanks.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Darkside281:
Install and boots OK. I can't get Netflix to work.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Triodexe:
Hi yep Netflix is a beast cause it didnt accept the Widewine Version we got

Solution i used is Downloaded Netflix over ApkPure and use the Netflix Magisk OemCrypto patch.

Only in SD Quality then but for me its ok :)

Maybe with other Widewine Files we got Netflix in HD

Greats Triodexe
[Shield Tablet Android Development] xconwayx:
First off, thank you!

Will we need to flash this DTB with QC2.0 after every update or a one time deal?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Triodexe:
Hi

No normaly the Dtb is inside the Kernel you only need to reflash it when Qc2.0 not working you can see it when dmesg kernel and look at the Bq2419-st8 message if it shows Qc2.0 Charger.

Or easier use ampere App when your charge mA goes around 2500 then QC works.

Qc2.0 charge takes then around 45 Minutes from 15% to 90% the last percents from 90-100% charges a liitle bit slower i wouldnt stress our Batterys to much :)

Greats Triodexe
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Kf_Umbra:
So flashing the dtb file using fastboot caused my Shield K1 to lock up completely, recovery and system were both bootlooping.

I was able to fix this by flashing the dtb located in this XDA thread with fastboot and wiping data, system, and cache, again using fastboot, afterwards. I was then able to boot into TWRP 3.3.1 normally and flash the ROM without the new dtb and it worked fine.

Maybe this new dtb needs more testing? Or maybe my shield is weird. Anyway just posting this here in case anyone else has this problem.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] bigcletus:
I was able to get the rom to boot after updating TWRP to the latest version. Haven't had much time to check it out yet. I tried to get the Nvidia Games app to run a game but it force closes when selecting a game. Has this worked for anyone else?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Triodexe:
Hi

Never had this problem with the dtb can you post your Bootloader Version

Needed for this rom and Dtb are the Latest bootloader=4.00.2016.04-8b2413b7

Greats Triodexe
[Shield Tablet Android Development] bigcletus:
Well, I thought i solved the booting problem with updating TRWP but it started to only boot 1 out of three times. Now it stopped booting completely so I restored my backup of LOS 14.1. How can I check the bootloader version?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Triodexe:
Hi

Nvidia Games didnt work for me too i can open it and register but when i start to stream a game it crashes

With the newer Vendor Files it works but then the HW Accleration is broken.

Try to get this fixed together with the no working Camera but this crappy Logs in Logcat from Nvidia didnt show the reason why it crashes.

Only for the Camera i know that it happens after Jpeg creation that it crashes

Greats Triodexe
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Kf_Umbra:
My bootloader is version 4.00.2016.04-8b2413b7, the latest one. I'm not sure why the dtb caused this to happen either. I even flashed NVIDIA's last recovery image before flashing this ROM, so I can't see where anything could go wrong.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Triodexe:
I tryed the Dtb again flashed with Fastboot and no bootloop dont know why it didnt work for you.

Did Quickcharge works when you only flash the Rom ?

Greats Triodexe
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Triodexe:
Hi

To see Bootloaderversion boot into bootloader with volume down and Power On.

You have the Shield K1 without Lte or the normal Shield with Lte ?
