Dear Xiaomi 13 user,

I'm not responsible if anything happens to your device. If you execute these AiO procedures properly then you shouldn't face any problems. Before you proceed please back up all your important data and make sure that your phone battery is charged >80%!

A. Prerequisites:

1. Install ADB and Fastboot tools with drivers on Windows

How to do this please read here: https://xdaforums.com/t/official-to...vers-15-seconds-adb-installer-v1-4-3.2588979/

Restart your computer.

2. Enable "OEM unlocking" and "USB debugging" in your device

a. Enable Developer Options in: Settings/About Phone/MIUI version. Click on MIUI version 7 or 8 times

b. Now go to: Settings/Additional Settings/Developer Options and check "OEM unlocking" and "USB debugging"

4. Connect your Mi Account to your device

Go to: Settings/Additional Settings/Developer Options/Mi Unlock status and check "Add account and device"
