Can someone please make a guide on how to unlock the bootloader and install the global ROM on the chinese version?
Just read it. It's simple.

For flashing, there's also guide about fastboot flashing on en.miui.com download section.

I'm having some problems unlocking. If I go to the site above and click on "Unlock Now" it takes me to a Chinese site which I can't navigate.
If I use the miflash_unlock.exe I get part of the way through and it says:
Can't unlock. Your account isn't associated with a phone number
I've googled it and some advice is to go to your account, but once again I'm redirected to a Chinese site.
Has anyone got round this?
Thanks
Steve

I translated the Chinese text using Google and it said my details failed validation. The next button was to change my password which I did. I entered my email address and clicked, but never received the password change email.
Looks like the whole process has gone south....

Hi all,
Hope this will not steal the thread:
If I get Global device - can I freely unlock then lock the bootlader?
Huge thanks

You certainly have an option to change language on site to English, search at bottom.
Yes I tried that, but it came up with a script error for any language. It seems to be working now though. I had to log into my account and add a recovery phone number. Then turn off wifi and enable mobile data and go into developer options/mi unlock status, add account, receive a text and eventually was asked to wait for 360 days while they harvest my data lol.
I requested an unlock from motorola and they emailed it the next day!
Just 15 days to go....
Thanks

China or Global is the same, unlocking bootloader will have waiting time.
Locking it is easy, but unlocking it again also still need waiting time.

Can a Global DEV version be installed, by fastboot or internal update, over a Global EEA on a locked bootloader?

I don't know, and that's too risky to try. Unlocking bootloader of Xiaomi devices is so easy, just be patient for waiting time.

Can I assume that I would get L1 widevine support with the global rom?
Hello. If you got a china version and you unlock bootloader to install glogal rom, you cant lock again the bootloader. If you do you will get a brick.
Global version is not affected by this. You can unlock and lock it again has you pleased.
Widevine support is supported by hardware not software. As far as i know Mi9 as L1 support.

I wanted to unlock my bootloader. For this you need to generate the unlock key.
However, when I go to https://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/unlock/index it just says "Page not found". No matter what browser I use.
Is anyone else seeing this?

Exactly. You can see the link in the cached site on Google. I think they took it down. Hopefully just for maintenance.
I was going for an unlock on different Huawei model and can confirm the site is NOT WORKING.
Wow.
I tried emailing them directly through the adress posted on the EMUI website. I got a quick response:
Code:
Address not found
Your message wasn't delivered to [email protected] because the address couldn't be found, or is unable to receive mail.
The response from the remote server was:
550 5.1.1 Error: invalid recipients is found from 209.85.128.176
That's disappointing.

Well,if you have a Mate 10,you can still unlock it ,but you have to pay 4 euro.Look for DC-Unlocker.
I went onto Twitter and @huaweiUK requested the unlock bootloader code for me.
Thank you! I have a Mate 10 pro. Do you know if it works with that model? Do I Need to use DC unlocker or DC phoenix for that? I already frp unlocked my fathers phone (also Mate 10 pro) using DC phoenix. He bricked it due to no data decrypting TWRP beeing available back then and Messing around in /System. BTW, thank you very much for your hard work offering the decrypting TWRP!
I am afraid that the already low development for this phone won't increase much if they block official unlocking now
Edit: Unfortunately they don't seem to support Mate 10 pro for unlocking:

Yes it does.I never asked Huawey for my code,and i have a Mate 10 Pro.DC Phoenix is not needed,just DC_Unlocker orHCU Client.Use HCU Client and request BL Code,then you could use that tool to unlock or directly fastboot with:

But why? It's our phone and we're free to do whatever we want abour it. Is it because they gather data from their stock ROMS and flashing LOS based roms will defer that? Lol
This thread is dedicated for the any and all discussion related to bootloader unlock process and experience on Redmi 6 Pro
Where did you buy the phone from(country!)? Were you able to unlock in the first attempt? If not, what is your waiting time as shown by Mi unlock?
Edit
There is a poll attached too. You won't be able to view it in Tapatalk or Xda app. Use chrome or other browser. Vote only if you have tried to unlock the bootloader and not otherwise, so that we get a clear picture of bootloader unlock times.
Too much wait. I couldn't unlock it yet but I'm waiting cause I need to install Xiaomi.eu ROM
720 hours waiting for unlocking bootloader......?
does it have antirollback?
tried it with 3 of mi miui accounts, first one 720 hors second one same, and 3rd one was instantly so i could unlock it at the same days as it arrived

I am tired of unlocking booloader of redmi pro 6. First it showed 720 hrs then after 15 days it showing again 720 hrs with same account. I have created 3 acc. But all showing same.
Can anybody share old xiaomi accont pls that would be a great help for people like me.
I requested it some days ago, I hope I could get it unlock as soon as the 643 hours end because it seems that Xiaomi doesn't want bootloader unlocking.

That is why I am selly my Moto z droid Verizon because I can't unlock the bootloader and if Xiaomi continue with it then their selling is going to fall down.

Hi Gals & Guys,
I have tried to google, but did not find a solution. Maybe I am just missing something.
My MI8 ist the Global Version and I am ofered to download the Stable or the Developer ROM (https://en.miui.com/download-346.html)
But when I download the Dev ROM, it won't install, it says "Wrong Version".
I am on stable 10.0.3.0 at the moment and I am trying to do it the Updater way, just as suggested by the instruction on the rom page.
What am I doing wrong?
Greetz

Download this version:
http://bigota.d.miui.com/8.9.7/miui_MI8Global_8.9.7_fb7963a71d_8.1.zip
Copy to your phone and install, after that, you will get OTA to the latest developer MIUI 10 Global 8.11.8 Beta version
Thanks! Now I know why it did not work. I had that download but then canceled the update after decrypting, that rendered the file useless. I just had to download it again and put it on the phone again....

Hello i need some help i got this device one week ago
I want to unlock bootloader and root my device
I found an app on Google play that promises to unlock the bootloader is it spam? Have someone tried it?
Don't use this application. I recommand you to unlock bootloader by getting code from ministryofsolutions. Just check on Google. I got code 5minutes later on his telegram channel and you can use it many times as you want even you lock bootloader again. It only cost 30$.

Ministryofsolutions is the best one because you can unlock and unlock again with same code.
There is funky service also but be careful, because you will not able to re unlock bootloader anymore.

Hi,
Does anyone know which service still works to unlock the bootloader?
I got a P20 Pro and I wanted to install LOS, but for this I need an unlocked bootloader. ministryofsolutions seems to not provide them anymore and on global-unlocking-solutions. regarding this the people are waiting since weeks for the codes. This looks not very promising.
Any ideas? Or do I have to sell the phone? Would be a pity, because the P20 Pro seems to be a flagship which can use the potential of the camera even with LOS.
It looks like global-unlocking-solutions doubled the rates. Ridiculous.
Hey guys.
Just wanted to tell you that the codes are available again.
Ministry of solutions only supports the Chinese models.
Funky Huawei should support all.
I had placed an order over a month ago so I'll send a support ticket to see if there are any news.
Update: On funky Huawei, it says that you can buy it but when you're on the according page, it says that it currently isn't available.
Update 2:
The funky Huawei said that I'll get a code or a refund within 14 days.
I had placed an order on 11 January.
Update 3:
Funky Huawei is down. Ministry of solutions is in "testing". Global unlocking solutions promises to deliver but only accepts credit card payments.
I don't remember the site, but one of the other thread had a link to another site that provided working unlock codes.
Just read through a few thread. I think it was here.

I've never tried it before but you should need the code only once.
Keep it somewhere safe anyway, just in case.
You can use it multiple (if it's even necessary).

That's very unfortunate.
I was told that I will either get the code or a refund within 14 days.
But if I remember correctly, that was said from the beginning.
All models are supported but there's no guarantee that you'll get the code for every single device.
Oh man... Is FH seriously only going to unlock Chinese phones now? The unlock codes shouldn't be tied to any location, I wonder why they would do that?

1) Like I've already said above, they provide codes for every region.
2) Even if it's just for the chinese models like with "ministry of solutions", it's because of Huawei themselves.
