worth giving it a shot. follow the instructions in here :
http://en.miui.com/thread-246705-1-1.html

once you get the approval sms, activate developer options and bind your mi account before downloading the unlock tool.
binding require you to downloap a vpn app and activate a china server beforehand. if you dont vpn to china server, you'll kena error 10008.

but i have a hunch that you may encounter error 8XXXX which means the rom doesnt allow binding so u can only testpoint a china rom and repeat.

yup..

i read his post..

and he managed to request to unlock using the unofficial rom..where most people failed with 86006 error..then unlock BL..then update..

will it brick also?

Try first with PlexVPN connecting to China Shanghai server, see if you kena the same error or not.

If error, you may need to flash to a newer ***China*** ROM which won't brick your phone, then request bootloader unlock from there.

Must be Redmi 5 Plus or Redmi Note 5A Prime. The rumoured Redmi Note 5 is still hidden behind the stage. How come there is a Redmi Note 5 Plus ? Even Mi Note series doesn't even reach 4 yet .

Eh, I read somewhere Xiaomi will not launch any smartphone at MWC 2018. Talk about sudden change of thought ... 😅

If I came across that article again, I will post the link here.

Edit:
Ok, found. Not exactly the article I had read. But relatable .
https://www.google.com/amp/s/m.gadgetsnow.c...ow/62821578.cms

Link is safe. No virus. Guaranteed.

Point is, the phone is already not sealed upon receiving. The box is already opened. I can assume DirectD had flashed with the unofficial ROM. Which upon update to latest MIUI, it was not able to proceed.

Still can be return for refund within 7 days. just see if any sifu here have any solution.

so urs originally comes with unofficial rom?

not 9.2.3.0 as my post above???or is this the unofficial one?

[attachmentid=9575643]

miui 9.2.3.0 is the problematic global rom that was pulled down after being released for just a few days.

by that time plenty of reseller sudah download and force flash (testpoint method) that rom into their units already, and sell it as "global rom" units.

many who bought that phone can use, but since 9.2.6.0 was released there was an update prompt on these units. unsuspecting people terus update and that caused their phone to brick.

since you have these units, either you dont update forever (turn off auto update too) or you open back cover, testpoint flash a china rom (stable or developer both oso can) and then request unlock bootloader. after kautim unlock then you can flash the new 9.2.6.0 global rom.

I had exactly the same issue with my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 many years ago, and I didn't notice since when, the problem just gone, maybe after a few phone software updates? So I guess, this could be software issue, maybe 90% likely to be a software issue. biggrin.gif
