I need to update that after flashing to global rom from China dev rom via edl, the bl locked back.

So I unlocked again in global rom and it works.

Some more I got unlocked permission approved just minutes again applied for it.

After flashing TWRP and SUPERSU and reboot, I think my phone is bricked with mi logo for more than 5 minutes...

But I can enter into fastboot... What Should I do now?

EDL back to global. Then, use this method:

It's more user-friendly...

Correct. In fastboot, use MiFlash to flash Global ROM but ensure "Clean_All" option is selected. This is also known as EDL but it wont lock bootloader.

Flashing now.

Any idea why I got this issue whereas I successful unlocked BL using official way and I cant boot only after flashing SUPERSU.

My guess u did NOT select "KEEP READ ONLY" when u see TWRP 1st page. Ensure to select "KEEP READ ONLY" so that Stock Recovery is untouched.

Got.

Should I try again? biggrin.gif or using the simply method you quoted?

When I done the MUIU setup and enter into it, the Mi account has detected my account and asking for password (with Unlock serial XXXXX)...

If I use other Mi account to sign in this device, any impact on the BL status?

I never bother to login to Mi Account anymore AFTER successfully unlocked bootloader...

I thought it tied to the account.

If so, one Mi account can unlock how many times?

I think when I was on China Dev ROM to Global ROM I should not use EDL to flash.

Should use MiFlash so maintain the bootloader as unlock?

Otherwise why the BL is locked after flash to Global ROM.... and luckily I can unlock again without having stuck at 50% issue.

One Mi account can unlock many xiaomi devices. I have 2 Mi Accounts. If one is occupied/waiting for approval, I use the other to do unlock bootloader once SMS received. But cannot interchange devices between these 2 accounts.

I have updated my post. You are correct to get the idea of EDL will re-lock bootloader. Always use MiFlash  (with Clean_All mode) so that bootloader remains unlocked. In MiFlash, there is also "Clean_All and Lock" mode. This is also known as EDL... the EDL that everyone is talking about.

Conclusions:
MiFlash + Clean_All = Bootloader remains unlocked (fastboot)
MiFlash + Clean_All and Lock = EDL (but in fastboot)
MiFlash + Save User Data = sort of OTA update (offline via fastboot)

So, as long as ur device can boot up to fastboot recovery, it's cureable from softbricked/bootloop.

FYI:

Many thanks for your guides.

Let me resummarize using another way:-

EDL mode + MiFlash + Clean_All = Bootloader locked (even Clean_All is used as when I was in China Dev ROM and flash to Global Stable ROM using EDL mode, I used Clean_All (Follow this guide http://en.miui.com/thread-278599-1-1.html and delete flash_all_lock.sh and flash_all_lock.bat)

Fastboot mode + MiFlash + Clean_All = Bootloader remains unlocked.

Once it is in Global Stable ROM with unlocked bootloader, I used this tutorial to perform ROOT:

http://xiaomitips.com/guide/how-to-root-re...te-break-issue/

because my phone can't get booted if I flashed to TWRP then SUPERSU.

Then I used Google Play Store to update SUPERSU into latest version.

It would be good if someone can put a detailed guide on how to root by using TWRP + SUPERSU with detailed steps + the version of TWRP and SUPERSU files should be used (inclusive of source of files)


It is very useful for newbie like me to perform unlock BL + ROOTED.

How to get the device to register in my Mi Account?

Is it the bold portion in this method?

QUOTE
- just flash china dev rom. (not sure if global dev got same settings)
- login same Mi ID
- turn on developer options by tapping multiple times on miui version
- additional settings - developer options - scroll until you see mi unlock status, tap it and add to authorize unlock status (or whatever the button)..then you'll see success or done status.
- Now boot into fastboot, and your phone should be unlocked successfully now.


When I was in Global stable ROM, there is no Mi unlock status in developer option. I signed up my Mi account into the device and unlock again and fortunately it was success without stuck at 50%.


Can one Mi account that has been granted to unlock be used in many devices (same model or different models) to unlock BL and then sign out the Mi account after unlocked?

Yup, very tight budget in these bad times. What to do. But anyway Redmi Note 3 with SnapDragon 650 chipset is sufficient for a smooth experience already, and with that big lovely battery too. No complaints from me at RM399. biggrin.gif

I was thinking to buy yesterday and thought so long. Finally, decide to keep this money for Mi5 discount time... ahahhahah

Haha. I've used Mi Max before with the same processor and the interface is really smooth, heck even smoother than previous flagships from Samsung I've used before. So no worries with the Redmi Note 3 for my usage too. I'm sure Mi5 is good if you use it a lot for gaming and intensive apps. biggrin.gif
Haha. More like, I can get multiple Redmi Note 3 units already as well.  laugh.gif
