Can you guys use the app to speed up the research for us that want root, even if you dont plan on rooting ? Thanks
The app has only 11 requests so far. I think there might be more Axons out there
request submitted.
Ditto, last week

Looks like its gonna take a while for us, IF it happens.
Anyone on 5.1.1, not just us. I'm in no hurry anyway.
Still scouring the web for a root method with no luck. Guessing it will come from China via the Axon Lux. Keep searching on Baidu
Only 18 requests submitted on king root. I don't think this will be our solution.
Any updates on a working root method?
I would like to put in a request for root on the Axon Pro.
I'd like root request for the standard (A1) Axon, please.
Anybody that wants to request please download KingRoot and install. After opening the app you will automatically request i believe we are at 163 request but we need a lot more

It shows as only 119 requests on mine! Do you have the A1P? It had about 88 when I put in a request
Yes I have also have the Axon Pro A1P... I guess I was mistaken it is less then I had thought.
Good grief is this one not selling to well worldwide? Also the 3 devices are dramatically different across the board with the A1, A2015 and A2016.

That is sad.. .. The is actually not bad!!! If we had root and a custom roms this phone would be at the top of everyones list!!!
Sent from my A1P using Tapatalk
So I spoke with both ZTE and KingRoot. I got the usually bs from ZTE avoiding answering any questions I had. KingRoot on the other hand has been very helpful and it seems they are genuinely trying to find root for Axon pro A1P. They told me the next version they release should do the trick, but we will have to wait and see
Everyone needs to download KingRoot from playstore and let it cycle through your device at the end it will say that root was unsuccessful and it will ask you to submit a request to KingRoot team, the more submissions the more they will hear us. its one click and your voice will be heard! We need everyone to pitch in here!!! If anyone here knows any members of KingRoot please let them know we need their help this device is dying fast and that is really unfortunate with such potential. ZTE Sucks this will be the last phone I buy from them they are planing to release the ZTE Axon Pro 2 and all other variants the Elite 2 and the Lux 2, If anyone feels the same as me let it be known on ZTE's Twitter and Facebook Googe+ everywhere they are corresponding. They are dead to me anyways, I will never buy another ZTE device after how they show that they plan to operate. They don't care about what the customer wants and they wont even reason with us. I myself, personally told them I would give up my warranty if I could unlock my bootloader they would be liable for nothing they don't listen to what the customer wants and in business that is what will either make them or break them. Look at them manufacturers that are doing well from China - OnePlus and Oppo both will give the customer what they want and they are doing very well for themselves. I will stick with Open Source manufacturers who have proven to be open with me as a customer such as OnePlus, Oppo, Nexus, HTC, even LG, Sony and Samsung at least then we have the option to to use our devices how we want to and not how they limit us. ZTE has lost its way into the fold!!!
So we need to do all we can do to get the device we are stuck with out of this situation, if anyone can help in any way, please do what you can let ZTE know on every social media site they have!!! The voice of this community can be powerful it has worked before hopefully enough people can make it work once again.
Everyone is aware of bootloader locked phones,but what makes xiaomi stand out? yes! the strange strategies and principles,worlds most mysterious procedure of unlocking a bootloader in xiaomi phones.
They have made an issue intentionally to make users puzzled.
proof:-
1.After successful approval for unlock from xiaomi's official website,the user needs to unlock their bootloader using mi flash unlock tool,but the unlock tool gets stuck at 50% or 99% if you try to unlock on the same day,both of the errors have no solution officially.
2.when you reach xiaomi forums for help,the moderators will suggest you to wait for 8-10 days and then try,they said it purely depends on luck,if it doesn't work after 8 days,you need to wait again for 8-10 days.so now this is the only solution they have and that too depends on luck! great!
3.unlock tool keeps on displaying the same error instead of displaying any message to wait,this blocks the user to unlock bootloader further by displaying unlock limit reached message! wow! well played!
4.Now the thing comes that left me shocked:-
http://en.miui.com/thread-673415-1-1.html
have a look at this very interesting conversation.
you will be surprised by the reaction of a xiaomi moderator to the very popular bootloader unlock issue,he talks very rudely and tells to leave Xiaomi instead of helping and explaining the issue. he said-"if you are a modder then you are at wrong place".
Results:-
1.many users lost their hopes and sold their devices.
2.some of them continued without unlocking.
3.some users waited for days,weeks and even months.
so they got what they needed!
you get what you paid for!
so i shared my terrible experience with Xiaomi and analysed it,if you guys have any thoughts and analysis about their strategy then please share below in comments!
thanks for reading!
sorry for my English.
You're a power user. Can the Xiaomi Mi Max 3 keep up? Rate this thread to express how "healthy" the development scene is for the Xiaomi Mi Max 3. A higher rating indicates available root methods, kernels, and custom ROMs.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
To answer all your questions here in MM3 forum go and check MM1 or 2 forums. Poor delivery of promised updates from Xiaomi and delayed or no sources released is a real good way to help the development...
Xiaomi should learn from other OEMs how they treat there uses. Hell 15 days to unlock bootloaders and you are talking about development.

Even I had used the same account to unlock my MM2 the one I used for my MM1 it took 7 days. The height was when I requested to unlock my friends phone using my mi account. I need to purchase a VPN which aupported Chinese server because I kept getting errors. After 3 days it took the request to unlock and the I received the message to wait for 2 weeks. Please check MIUI form unless they have changed the process in the last 2-3 months its 15 days.
You might be comfortable using MIUi but not everyone shares the same option. Also the OP is talking about custom rom development.

No bro. Don't be sorry. Why should we users argue for something Xiaomi is doing. It's all cool. Just wanted the users to know how Xiaomi treats there users. If you posting anything like this there forum there mods just ban you for like a month or permanently. So no free speech there. I was banned there for a month because I said the truth. So hope you understand.
Off course

Yeah..we know..but it took long time for mi max 2 to developed (because xiaomi)..
Just hope they dont mess this time..
Really interested in the max 3 hardware wise, but I'm using mix 2s now which came out around the same time as oneplus 6 and mix 2s has almost no scene while 1+ already have tons of custom roms.
And I can't stand MIUI, so resorted GSI rom, thanks to treble, which can't take advantage of the dual lens cam.
So..
Hey guys!
I'm sure there is a lot of posts like this one but I couldn't find the right one so if someone finds it please share
So my problem is that my dad bought a Huawei p30 pro (Vog-l29) and little did he know about the google account.. I did a factory reset and now I'm stuck.. Any ideas how to fix it?
I'm far from pro in doing stuff like this but I'm familiar with a lot of ways so if some one with more experience could just point me in the right direction with names of programs and files I would be very thankful! I've read a lot of ways to do it but then they mention that it won't unlock it.. I have a USB cable for it and a Windows computer, do I need something else?
Would really appreciate some help!
Thanks in advance!
Ask your father his password and 'voilà'.. You'll be good to go!

Funny one! The Google account belong to the seller.. Didn't think that was hard to get, so yeah asking my dad won't help.
Please can I get some helpful answers..
LoL you're welcome (^_-)
Usually, looking for frp bypass means a lot things...
If not, just try 'frp' on the search bar, there's subjects about.
And, of course, you could also go to an official repair center : they'll unlock it for you.
Good day

Yeah I get that, it might be hard to believe randoms here but in this case the phone isn't stolen.
I've already tried to search around but I don't get everything I read about it, like I said I'm far from pro in this area.
Would really appreciate some help to fix this..
Hi. I guess the easiest way is to flash the factory image to the phone.
Look here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...orial-vog-l29-flash-firmware-153-usb-t3928793
When I flash new firmware my Google account is gone and I have to enter my information to start the phone with my account.
Its not that hard to flash the firmware. Follow The guide.

You must have online emails and ebay or whichever site you used logs from the sale/purchase, phone number of the seller had to come from somewhere
How did you pay for it? Bank transfer/Paypal, both have paper trails/logs of the seller
Find it hard to believe you have 0 proof of purchase and 0 methods of contacting the seller

It was a seller on a facebook-page. He had written the price and a phone number so my dad called him and they spoke about it. The wrote 2-3 messages and that's it. Not much. Paid in cash as well.

Go back to the FB page and look him up
Next time don't buy dodge phones (likely stolen) from random FB people, there's usually a reason why FRP is locked

I know, my dad didn't know about this, he thought it was like the old days when people still were honest..
Probably doesn't matter anyway, even if you did get back into it, if it is stolen it will soon be IMEI blacklisted and be useless as a phone in your country
Thread cleaned up a bit.
First of all, xda does allow threads regarding FRP bypass as long as it's clearly not for illegal purposes.
Second, if you think it IS for illegal purposes, report it! Don't reply as if you are a Moderator of this site or flame the member. This could land you in hot water.
I'll quote some of the rules here since it's MY job to do so:
2. Member conduct.
2.3 Flaming / Lack of respect: XDA is about sharing and this does not involve virtual yelling (flaming) or rudeness. Flaming or posting with a lack of respect is unacceptable. Treat new members in the manner in which you would like to have been treated when you were a new member. When dealing with any member, provide them with guidance, advice and instructions when you can, showing them respect and courtesy. Never post in a demanding, argumentative, disrespectful or self-righteous manner.
2.5 All members are expected to read and adhere to the XDA rules.
10. Help others if you can.
If you see posts from others where you can help out, please do so. This place exists because people are helping each other, and even if you are relatively new to the matter, there's probably quite a few people with less experience than you, who could benefit from what you've learned. Don't be shy.

I think this is where the confusion is coming from, there seems to be different rules per device forum

Having been Samsung for years I've had it drummed into my head that 'any' talk of FRP bypassing is against XDA rules

Thanks but that post is actually incorrect. I assure you we do allow them unless it's clearly breaking the law. It all stems from the introduction of FRP when devices were being sold without the Google account being properly removed. Many users found themselves in this exact situation. They purchased a device that had been simply factory reset. Which was enough before the introduction of FRP but now when they set up their newly purchased device, they are asked for the previous owner's password.
Therefore xda has allowed these threads as well as the actual methods of bypass to be posted. There are legitimate uses.

Bypass the huawei p30 lite frp. MAR-LX1M.
Has anyone found anything ?
Guys hope all of you doing good.. Be careful and check before buying used mobiles.
My wife she bought MI 9T PRO through facebook marketplace which they sold very low price. She used that mobile for few days then the device went into bootloop. Then i did factory reset which went into locked screen and ask for unlock code. Only im able to connect with Wifi which is no use. The seller didn't provide any MI Acccount details or any mobile number which associated with MI Account. We asked his help but he told that last year he bought from some other person who's unreachable as of now.
Note: Its not stolen or lost mobile. We paid for that thats why struggling to fix it. Its our mistake that we are careless when buying used mobile. Lesson learned
I did my best to fix it by myself. Here is Error list and its going to be big challenge for me to bring back the device to life.
RAPHEAL GLOBAL VERSION 12.0.4.0
RECOVERY VERSION 3.0
I GUESS MAJOR ISSUE IS FIND DEVICE ON
1. MI FLASH TOOL
Cannot flash "Find Device On" and "Use Authorized Account".
2. BOOTLOADER LOCKED
Error: Cannot receive token to unlock bootloader. (Fastboot working). So i cannot flash TWRP to do complete wipe
3. MI UNLOCK TOOL - Fail at 99% because i try using different account to unlock (I dont have current MI account details)
4. QFIL (QUELCOMM FLASH TOOL) - EDL MODE
I used TEST POINTS to go into EDL MODE and try to flash old version, new version so many times. Only 2 minutes QFIL flash results "DOWNLOAD COMPLETED". After i turn on the device still its lock protected.
5. MAGIC BOX TOOL WITHOUT DONGLE- EDL MODE
Simply Its not working for me and throw errors. Please help me if you know how to use it properly for Mi 9t pro.
6. I.MI.COM
I submit application there but i didnt get any response until now. I dont know that MI CLOUD will help to or not because we are third owner.
7. UNLOCK SERVICES ONLINE
I read some topics about the same kind of issues they recommend to use kind of russian forums which i dont know exact site and im scared to be a victim again.
8. BYPASS TOOLS
More tools on internet i tried but nothing seems to be working. Always i get error and failed. "Hello packet issues in Mi unlock bypass tools".
9. NO AUTH FIREHOSE PATCH FILES
i found some firehose no auth files which doesnt help me to resolve the issues.
10. DOWNGRADE OR UPGRADE VERSIONS
I dont have idea that which tool i have to use for complete flash.
11. ADB
ADB Not working on fastboot. Im not sure adb enabled or disabled.
12. I dont have any FLASH TOOL BOX or DONGLES to try any other advanced methods.
Guys help me and guide me. Im struggling almost one week to fix this issue. Now covid19 pandemic so i cannot bring it to the service centers which may be expensive.
Sorry for my grammar mistakes, typo errors. I hope you guys understand the issues. Hoping for the best.
you need to email Xiaomi global, if they don't accept, email them again until they do, most likely your seller sold you a stolen device, btw don't waste your time trying to fix it yourself, I highly doubt it will work.
and also accept the fact that your 9t pro may never be functional again...
here is an example of what you could email them

Hello brother. Thank you for your reply. I thought nobody will respond my thread because long time i didnt get any reply. As you said i sent email before one week but service.global refused to unlock my mobile. They told me to submit application at i.mi.com which i tried before 15 days. I didnt get response from i.mi.com.
Yesterday i contact them again. They told me to contact any service centers with purchase receipt. Also they gave another email ID which is xiaomi service in my county. I dont know that they want to help or not. Im confused and xiaomi customer service not good enough to give appropriate solution. I dont know whats next
You need an authorised account to flash in EDL mode. The average Joe cannot use Qualcomm tools on this phone. There are people who will remotely connect to your PC and perform the MIUI flash for you, using their own authorised account. They will charge around USD $20, but sometimes as high as $40.
@Robbo.5000 . Thank you for your information brother. It has active find device status thats why i cannot flash with an authorized account. I believe it will relock again and our 40$ which we spend will be useless. Please let me know if its not true. Please Share with me if you know any solution for lost mode xiaomi device.

Find cops if you are saying you got scammed.
Even if you are the victim, Xiaomi has no responsibility to help for illegal acts. You need legal force to make Xiaomi unlock it for you.
Xiaomi will help if you have purchase receipt.

Yes, i complain already local police station. but the seller already deleted his fb account. They said he used fake credentials and nowadays more scam online. They told me to send mail to xiaomi and inform this issue so they will contact the owner and come back to you. But the reality nothing happened. Xiaomi said they cannot help regarding this issue. Seller sent the item through cash on delivery motorcycle rider delivery service. The rider service just pickup the item at any location and deliver to the destination. The seller was wearing a face mask so the rider couldn't be able to look at his face. I followup and go through the formalities and i spend my time and effort on that. Finally everybody advise me and they told me to be careful next time. Thats why im here to ask for help. If i cant fix it then i leave the device on my shelf until i find solution. I spent money on that so im hoping for the best to happen. Its ok if the owner contact me ill return the device if its really lost.
Wow, let me tell you.
Blackhawk isnt trying to disrespect you or anything, yes he is a long time member of XDA so what.
He is rightfully able to be suspicious as people do it a lot here.
XDA cannot instruct you to unlock a locked phone if it is done by illegal means.
You can just take it to the centre and get it unlocked by xiaomi by providing proof of ownership
If you have the original box or you should just take it to xiaomi repair centre and explain to them.
Blackhawk is a pretty nice xda member and pretty much my only friend on here lmao.
He is giving you more respect then you deserve right now for outlashing at him because he is rightfully suspicious.
Your circumstances are very suspicious.
We have every right not to help you or to help you. He came here on his own to try help you and you are acting like this?

Pls read my post and know first that i have box or ownership. I told clearly in my post that we bought used mobile online and we received like this. When i open the parcel i dont get charger or any other box along with the item. Everybody bringing the free advice and im thankful for that. I defend with the previous comment because he try to accuse me that my firsr thread is all about stolen mobile. He also mentioned that return it to the owner it seems all of u trying to accuse me. Thats why i request all of u that if u have solution just post in my thread so i will go through that. Don't put me down or make me feel guilty for what happened to us. I understand what you coming to say and thank you for that.
Also I favout Xiaomi MIUI account protection as that only initaties if factory reset was done by going to the recovery menu and resetting.
It would not ask if it was reset normally.
So it means that someone had reset the phone without unlocking it normally and going to settings, I doubt the person who sold the phone even knew who had it. It is stolen definitely, if that seller bought it the person who sold it to them would have done the reset the right way.
This post is just all wrong and you won't be able to fix it.
Don't post threads on here asking people for help in potentially illegal and implicating others in your problem there.
I cannot even express how bad it would be if you got caught and they found that someone helped you unlock a stolen phone?
Don't you know when you were trying to unlock it the original owner could track the IMEI with the police?
The IMEI cannot be changed on your phone since the bootloader is locked.
If you are legitimately saying the truth then you don't need to worry, but if you have stolen it then it is only a matter of time before the police knock on your door.
AND FINALLY
XDA Developers forums do not endorse any type of potentially illegal activity and will take strict actions against people who are part of it.
XDA Rule No.1

Okay fine, but all that's is to inform the police to track if it is stolen.
Maybe you'll get your money when they find the culprit who scammed you.
We cannot help you unlock a phone that is protected by factory data protection, it is there for a reason and we cannot violate the rule that it was placed there for.
And the fact that it could implicate us in legal stuff is something we don't need during these times

Wow, let me tell you.
Blackhawk isnt trying to disrespect you or anything, yes he is a long time member of XDA so what.
He is rightfully able to be suspicious as people do it a lot here.
XDA cannot instruct you to unlock a locked phone if it is done by illegal means.
You can just take it to the centre and get it unlocked by xiaomi by providing proof of ownership

Please read his first comment. He said return it to the owner so it will work. I know It happened in our life that we were scammed by seller. Its our fault that we didnt meet the person and we didnt check the item before make payment. For that no need to put me down for asking help. Its ok if there is no solution. We accept that is loss and we learnt to be careful from that.

just talk to the cyberpolice?
They'll even find and return your money.
Unless you cant.
The local police wont do anything, i advise you to call the cyberpolice.
They can find him even if he deletes his ‘credentials’
