Hello Guys !
I've buy MI 8, this is an amazing phone ! Is very beautiful.... I want to unlock bootloader but i must wait 360 hour !
Also i use the phone in english (I'm french) and i've installed Playstore.
I've unlock many xiaomi but still 72 hours. It's possible to unlock more fast ? I've read if we buy an premium account (i.mi.com) it's possible ?
Thank's for you help and answering, sorry for my poor english.
Best regards
Don't fall for any tricks which are available online. Nothing changes 360 hours wait time. I had one account in which it had 84 hours left, I did that 2 accounts trick now both my account has 360 hours waiting time lol

I try lot of things i found on google but xiaomi fix them... I still waiting but if someone have any solution to accelerate. Yes i'm impatient but i still wait 3 week to receive the phone, and i must again wait 2 week :crying:
um, there's a way. You need to crack up your phone and connect two dots on your board ,this will enable emergency download mode(9008 mode). Exact locations vary with your model.
Then you use one special engineering cable (you can make one with ordinary usb cable) to connect your phone to your computer.
Then press volume up and down and power at same time ,your phone will enter emergency download mode and now you can flash anything you want.
This is the way they use to repair bricked phones.

In China,you can unlock your mi 8 at once by using the old version of the bl unlock tools (an account with unlock permission is also required)

I think is fixed this "bug"
You think I can run an unlock procedure on a 4A redmi and then use the account on MI8? (so I won't have to reach the 15 days maybe less)
No, you have to week 15 days.
I have permissions on my account, i have unlocked my Redmi note 3 a few years ago, am i supposed to have to wait the 15 days? Wasn't it like 74h?
i tried to unlock my phone yesterday with my really old xiaomi account - but it showed me 360h of waiting time.
today i changed the account to one of my friends - he unlocked is mi6 couple month ago with a waiting time of 72h
but i got the same result -> 360h of waiting time.
maybe it was because i tried it before and should have used the other account directly..
many people unlocked the phone directly with an account which they used to unlock an other, not to old, xiaomi phone so you can give it a try.
my timer was resettet to 360h again Oo
How can I check how much time has passed? or do I have to try it after 15 days?
that would be pretty stupid if I try it a day before and then the time is reset

Just try to unlock it through the unlocker software, it will say the time left at 99%.

ah this works, thanks
Once 360 hours have passed, will the Bootloader unlock without problems, or can it give me an error and start the timer again?
The only things you can do is to wait...
My id also need 360h to unlock. But I changed to my bro's account and unlock immediately

This method is called EDL or deep cable mode, but in order to do it you need an special account code and Xiaomi doesn't offer them anymore.

I just got the unlock to enter in my treo 750..but it looks like someone has tried to enter the wrong code 15 times...
how long must i wait before it will let me enter the code?
its been over 24 hours...
your phone is indefinitely blocked.
please wait for the new release of my SIM unlocker and you'll be able to unlock it.
will that be anytime soon?
or will it be a while?
Olipro,
Is the newest release of your SIM Unlocker able to overcome this indefinite blocked state yet?
Any other options?
Thanks,

FINALLY after 7 days without the phone going to sleep or turning off
it allows me to enter the code......
it actually had to sit 7 days
Wow this took 7 days to unlock. I tried using the unlock program and it was at 2 days and the program put it to 12 days so I just went to ebay to buy the code. So now I have to wait 7 days. Ahhhhhhh

Thanks for you work.
Ha finally!!! Mine was timed out for 36 tries (thanks to some of the unlock programs on here) and I had waited for days for it reset but nothing. I tried the other unlockers too but didn't have much luck. I even tried calling AT&T for a code and they said no go unless you the phone is under service with them for 90 days. So I finally bit the bullet and paid for the software unlock that is done over the internet and finally got it unlocked even with the timeout still on. Yeah.
I'm in the same boat, the phone is in timeout, I have the code from ATT but can't enter it. Would you please share what service you used to get it unlocked online even with the timeout.
Had same issue
When My blackstone wsa in timeout I found that the timer only countts down when the phone is on (screen and all) so to make the timeout pass quickly set your phone to never turn off (without sim in) then leave it on charge. May take several days of being left always on but the phone will eventually timeout and let you enter another code.
timeout
please tell me a solution for HTC HD2
How long do I have to wait for the timeout?
Timeout for HD2
The timeout on my HD2 is now after 7 wrong tries around 35min ....
i think it increases abaout 5 min every try. Just let your device allways on in that time.
bye the way has anyone managed to get a working unlock code for a 3 Austria locked HD2

i've insert wrong code for 19 times and now is 4h that i'm waiting...
..i'm still waiting :-(((
is it normal????
today i've waited 25h... nothing jet :-((
Yes you read it right I want to know how I can brick my phone or make it stop working completely. Now let me explain the reason why. I had installed an app called "Launcher Pro". Later I uninstalled it and that is when all hell broke lose. Basically when ever I would swipe my screen to unlock the phone, I would get constant error messages that would reappear the moment I would close them, and to make matters worse it would lock out the rest of the screen so I can not click any thing else (just like in windows vista and windows 7 when a UAC message pops up). This is further complicated by the fact that I have a Bell Canada Samsung Galaxy Phone, which does not have the 3 button recovery ability but that is not the end of my problems. I got this phone at a store called Best Buy and got their warranty. Now one of the things that voids the warranty is unlocking the phone, guess what?? My phone is unlocked. So since my phone is not dead, it boots up, the lock screen loads up, the top bar shows u the battery life and the fact it is getting service and can receive calls (but which I can not answer since when it comes to that screen, the screen freezes up with the error messages). So if I take the phone to Best Buy, they are going to pop in a different sim other then bell and when they see that it works, will hand me back my phone and void my warranty. So I need to have the phone in such a condition that they can not check that and yes there can be no physical or water damage either. How do I accomplish this?
Is it rooted ? Did u happen to enable usb debugging ?
If so a mere "adb reboot recovery" followed by a wipe data would solve ur issues
Ya it is rooted, but usb debugging is not activated and I can not activate it the normal way through the settings screen, if you would know a way to do it some other way, that would be great. Just to let every one reading this know, I do not want to change my phone if I can help it, if there is a way for me to fix this with out bricking the phone and getting a new one, I will be more then happy to keep my current phone. Thanks

Have you tried booting into safe mode. Usually booting into safe mode will disable any 3rd party apps from loading. This might give you the chance to uninstall LauncherPro or even enable USB debugging. The method to get into safe mode for the Bell Vibrant seems tricky though:
Menu + Home + Power On right when you see the Samsung logo (specifically: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8583886&postcount=17) probably hold the keys. I know in the other Android phones (HTC Ion) you have to hold Menu from beginning til it boots.

Why dont you just re-lock your phone?
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA App
Why unlocking it with code would void the warranty? if you flash, yes, maybe. but you enter the unlock code... isn't the official way? Don't bother how i got the code, I bought it, it's mine, i can unlock it. period. i dont understand how they would consider to void the warranty because you unlock with code. btw, Bell does give unlock code for 75$. so, my phone is not eligible for warranty?

Guys c'mon.. At least read his post. He can't gain access to the phone at all right now. How do you expect him to relock?
Honestly with no adb you can't do much if u dont have 3button working
Try all those 3button tricks posted for those who can't get to recovery/download mode.
One if i recall is :
Turn off phone
Press n hold Home + Vol Down (or Vol up, up 2 u) + power
Keep holding, your phone will restart once, then twice, then let go off power button.
Its worth a shot
I work at best buy. They will not stick another sim card into the phone. Is it within the 30 day return policy? If its within 30 days go return it and show them the phone dont work and they will exchange it for you.. If its not within the 30 days they will most likely have to send the phone out to Samsung.
What i would do :
1. Take the phone back to the store.
2. Tell them the thing dont work...they wont know if its unlocked or rooted.
3. Ask them to exchange it under the manufactures warranty (if its not within the 30 days) and hopefully they will exchange it and not have to send it out to samsung.
WIN.
PM me if anything.
Asked the rep at best buy (by the way this is best buy Canada), and he said warranty is void if unlocked.
like eduard said, just take it do them. don't even ask or mention unlocking coz that will make them think that you have unlocked it.
take it there, say it doesn't work. done. don't ask, don't tell.
lol thats why you dont tell him you unlocked it! wow man.
its not about you telling them that u unlocked it, their procedure is to insert a different sim into the phone before sending it out for repair and/or exchange. And that is when I will be caught. So aside from giving best buy the phone, does any one else have any other ideas?
Did you try this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=813580
I also have a Bell SGS. I got it from Wireless Wave and fortunately I have 3b recovery. You've tried both (up+home+power) as well as (down+home+power) right? You let go as soon as you see the boot screen that says i9000.
Drop it in the water?

Water damage is not covered by warranty.
From what i read, i can't imagine this is a hardware problem (though i could be wrong), so probably the worst that can be is that your phone needs a reflash. How much would that cost in CA if you can't talk it into a warrantee case?
Ya its not a hardware issue, its a software one. Let me give u more information. The phone boots and goes to the lock screen. Shows the correct time and date and shows on the top that it was connected to my phone service but the moment I swipe the screen to unlock, I get repeating messages, one of them reads "The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. please try again." and the other reads "The application TwLauncher (process com.sec.android.app.twlauncher) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again". Both messages have a "force close" button on the bottom that takes the message away just for it to reappear a second later.
Also from what I have been reading in the forums, if I can only get my phone into usb debugging mode in any other way then the typical MENU > Settings > Applications > Development > USB debugging, it would solve all my problems. If any one knows how to do that, please share your knowledge.
There is a post on here for making a USB dongle that powers the phone straight into download mode.
You need a USB plug and a resistor.
You can then re flash.

Here's what you can do:
When you've started the phone (and the error messages come up) you connect your device to your PC with the USB cable.
At that point you'll see a new menu on the background (behind the error messages) for the selection of your connection (Samsung Kies, Mass Storage, etc...)
Click away the error messages very quickly and press the button Samsung Kies (you may have to try several times before you can do this but it's possible)
Then you open Samsung Kies and you use the procedure that is mentioned in the post below to reflash your device with a test firmware:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=766589
Make sure to read through that tread to know what codes you have to use in the registry. You should be able to flash your device in Kies with a (test/official) firmware this way.
In the end you my not even have to return it at all...
I went through the process of requesting Unlock and got a text message the same day saying my phone is approved. But every time I connect to Mi Unlock in fast boot, my phone isn't recognized and I'm unable to get any action from the unlock button when clicked. Any solutions or thoughts?
My phone is recognized my my PC as a storage device when connected, so I think it's not a driver issue. I did read around XDA about a 3 day wait period, however I've already received my approval. Do I still have to wait?

72h wait period is indicated by that tool: "Mi account is not active on this device long enough, you need to wait additional XX hours" kind of message.
That points to Mi account (same one you have requested unlock with) needs to be added to the phone (72h timer starts ticking the moment you have added mi account to the phone)
If your phone is not recognized at all it is completely different story.
Things to check in developer options (if you do not have it enabled yet tap few times on about phone -> MIUI version):
- OEM unlock
- USB debug - not sure about that but all guides for any phone I have checked tend to mention this one as well.
I'm not new to rooting and all. With that said, I'm not pretty good at this too. So all I wanted to know is that is there some kind of workaround to the 7 day wait. Like some modded version or anything like that.
Thanks in advance.
No, it does not exist. you have to wait 7 days.

Oh okay. So I have to keep my mobile connected to it for all that time? Or should I do "Add Account" in my mobile developer settings and wait 7 days to connect my mobile to my laptop?
exactly. add your MI account in the developer settings and OEM Unlock.
Then download MIUNLOCK, connect to the MI account and try the unlock. Then the timer starts.
Well, ik this sounds a bit dumb but i didn't quite get it.
The timer starts when:
I add my account in the developer settings
Or
I connect my phone to my lap and click on "unlock".
Also if its the second one. Do i have to keep my phone connected for 7 days and i can't use it?
The timer starts when you confirm that you want to unlock.
Afaik: You can disconnect it, you can use it, you can turn it off, you can take the SIM out. On the 7th day you need to turn it on again with SIM inside. Be careful not to start the 7 day timer again when the 7 days are over.
And how can I possibly "restart the timer".
Thanks for the reply!
No, there's no other way to skip the 7 days. Unless you try to unlock phone that ia older than 2 years, I believe, MiUnlock will automatically unlock it (need further confirmation, happens to some people)
I believe you can accidentally "restart" the countdown if you swap your sim with different sim that is used to request the unlock, or stay offline/airplane for too long (3-5 days). Safe bet is, keep your phone on, don't swap the sim, and stay connected to internet as best as you could until you have successfully unlocked it.
Ohh okay. I finally get it.
Thanks for the help guys! I really appreciate it.
Use it for few mins every other day. Connect to wifi, take picture, play soke game etc.

If you use your phone as always and as long you do nothing more with account settings or OEM unlock, you are OK.
The timer restart if you try the unlockprocedure again from start.

When starting with unlock you need to enable some settings in developer options.
After this you start the unlocktool, after a short time (99%) you see the wait time of 168 hours.
Everytime if you start the unlocktool after this, you see that waiting time will be lower.
But...........
If you change some of the before enabled settings in developer options, that clock starts again for 168 hours, because he thinks that this is the start of a new unlock attempt.
My advice: Stay away from settings for that week.
If you use your phone as always, nothing happens with resetting the wait clock.
If you start the unlocktool after 168 hours, everything runs as expected (100%) and you bootloader will be unlocked and all data will be erased. So make a backup before.

Hi there! Like it allways happends, the battery was pure and exactly at that moment, the upgrade started to installing and the phone turned of. At that moment my son (3 y.o.) was watching cartoons on the phone, so when he give the phone back, we thaught, that nothing bad happened. But when the phone was charged, we got bootloop
It`s my wife`s phone and she didn't want to create or link existing xiaomi account to this redmi note 10 pro. Bootloader is locked, so I can't upload any recovery there.
Is there any chance to download all the media (photo/video) from this smartphone? The haulf life of my son is filmed there
Or maybe there is some method to flash ROM with 100% guarantee no erasing data (user's files)?
I will be very much appreciated for all the advices!
. as I wanna see the solution as well
