I'm in no way able to test it, the file says realme 6 pro. But OP said it works for regular realme 6 too. Here's the link for R6 folks

You give a link to apk for realme 6 pro. This does not work on realme 6.
apk is installed, but the test fails.
Check your unlock before writing

Check this screenshot of my realme 6 it might be your model no. Mine is Asian model

A lot, i used to underclock my cpu to 75% (less heat and power use, still very much capable for gaming) but nowadays i used it only for debloating and adblocking with energized.
Is there any way to maintain OTA after unlocking the bootloader?
Any update on this? The provided indepth test apk doesnt work for me. Im in EU.
nobody cares about eu model.. i am looking for weeks to unluck my bootloader.. always get ****ty answers like just take the realme 6 pro WORKS. NOT!
i dont know why realme devices that are newer get those options and realme 6 dont. if you ask me realme 6 should be on the first place instead of the pro version
How we could reach official realme devs for quicker releasing a unlocked bootloader?

So, if I understand you correctly:
1. you register your phone on MIUI site, you get a user identifier
2. you apply for unlocking bootloader, you get a permission, you unlock bootloader with official miui unlocker
3. you enter recovery and install one of the MIUI ROMs from MIUI website, because you want to use MIUI OS
4. but you don't want your phone to be registered to your MIUI account
5. so you start phone in bootloader, connect it to your PC/notebook etc. and you use Miko tools to remove MIUI account???
I don't get it what is the sense of all of this.
Or is there a "secret identifier number" in your Redmi 4x santoni, regardless what OS you use?
And this tool I don't know looks dangerous.
Does anyone want to do a test and write a review of what you can do whit this tool?

This "EDL mode" (stands for Qualcomm Emergency Donwload Mode) confuses me. Could someone explain it in details, or give me a link about it?
It was written, you can use it to unharbrick phone, but EDL mode requires bootlader, so I don't get it how could you use it for unhardbricking.
You can enter into EDL mode on a completly dead phone (no recovery nor bootlader works, or phone doesn't turn on) by connecting hardware test points under the cover of phones while it's connected to PC by USB cable.

It is a special flasher itself If you meant that it's more universal than MI Flash Tool, then the answer is yes.
But once you have to dismantle your phone to play with test points, it's already too complicated, should do only if phone doesn't turn on or no bootloader.
is it works on miui 10?

Read the above links again. Unfortunately they're all in English, so you may need to use Google translate to understand them fully.
You will need to open the phone to set it in EDL mode.
You will need to contact someone in Russia that has an authorised service account and pay him about €20
He will then need you to allow him to control your PC by remote desktop to flash your phone and unlock the bootloader.
All the information is in the above posts, including the contact details for the Russian guy. There have been a few people that have done this, so this works and the Russian guy is reliable.
There is no physical reason that this cannot be done by the Italian service centre. Maybe you could try to ask them again if they can take pity on you and help.

You're not supposed to relock the bootloader with anything other than the original software, even different regions of MIUI for example. Otherwise the device bricks itself.
This unlocking method was researched by myself, so I bought two machines to study it.
I know that many Chinese can unlock the Bootloader, but they are unwilling to announce it.
They charge high unlock fees to unlock for users in need. This is shameful,I don't like selfish Chinese people.
so I plan to publish it directly.
Let all users have the right to choose whether to unlock, I hope you like it.
How to use it?
Both BlaskShark 3/3Pro and 3S can use this file to unlock the Bootloader.
No need to pay high fees to unlock.
Enter the edl mode method 1: when the phone is off, press and hold the volume up and down keys at the same time,
insert the USB cable to connect to the computer to enter the edl mode.
Entering edl mode Method 2: Turn on usb debugging on the phone, and run adb.exe reboot edl in cmd to enter edl mode.
and use the miflash tools to flash unlockfiles.
Then enter fastboot mode, run UnlockBL.bat to unlock your phone.
Enjoy it!

Unlocking the Bootloader through this method may cause the fingerprint to be lost,
and it needs to be recalibrated before it can be used.
Fingerprint calibration tutorial
Enter *#*#466349#*#* on the dial keypad
Will jump to the fingerprint calibration interface,
Then click 售后校准, you will be prompted to Put the FLASH FLA then click START.
Click Start first, and then immediately press your thumb on the fingerprint module, keeping the phone from moving.
Wait for this step to be complete, then it will prompt Put the black FLAT
You can use black things, or wrap your thumb in black clothes, and then press and hold the fingerprint module.
Then wait for the calibration to complete
The fingerprint module must be completely covered during the calibration process, otherwise the unlock rate will decrease
After success, restart the phone to re-enter the fingerprint and use the fingerprint to unlock.
Thanks for sharing

I didn't realize everyone needs their hand held. It's called hacking for a reason. This bl unlock couldn't be easier.
So Im VERY new to this. Does this give me the global rom? Also do I need to backup my phone before? The phone is great but the issues with push notifications for certain apps on the Chinese Rom is just a pain in the butt.
Also Im on the bs3 12gb ram 128gb storage is there any different steps I need to take?

Cant afford to pay to do it for a while so hoping it shows up online so i can do it myself.
UPDATE AS OF 16 OF MAY 2023
This project isn't working right now, but I am still working on it.
However due the complicated nature of the projects and the fact that I have little free time means this project will probably still take time to get to functional state.
If anyone has any idea please contact me, any hell is welcome!
______________________________________________________
Hi!
So I decided I wanted to flash custom software into my phone, but it's bootloader was locked so I figure a way to unlock it!
I am going to leave 2 methods:
1. It's the most risky but has more chance of working. The idea is to flash the whole firmware again to the phone, but from an unlocked model.
This is posible using the EDL mode and Sahara protocol.
The EDL mode is an emergency mode which allows user to flash firmware in case fastboot and ADB fails. It's also available in all Qualcomm devices.
It is also completly independent from the rest of the phone, and it's the first bootloader we have. If everything is ok it triggers the second bootloader(fastboot) which then boots the system(See the diagram if you want).
As we want to reflash the firmware keep in mind this could brick your phone and I won't take any resposability if it happen
Materials:
-QPST
-Qualcomm Driver
-Working USB Cable
-Fastboot and ADB set up and working
-knoledge on using ADB
Procedure:
1. Download and install Qualcomm drivers
2. Download and install QPST
4.Downlaod the MBN file
3. Reboot
4. Connect the phone to the PC, then open cmd and run "adb reboot edl".
If you are on fastboot mode, then try "fastboot oem edl", "fastboot reboot-edl", "fastboot reboot edl". One of this should work
5. Go to C:\Program Files\Qualcomm\QPST\bin\
6.Open QPST Config(it's a blue phone, see picture)
7. Click on "Start clients" and then "Software download". A new window should open
8. Now we need to select the phone image using the browser button
9. Click on start to flash ⚡️
Please be aware the method wasn't tested, so this could brick your phone.
If you decide to try it, and have questions or ru into problems during the process, please let me know.
Also remember to take a backup of your data, as it is goig to be lost. ℹ
____________________________________________________________________________
As for the second method, I tried it and it didn't work for me, but is completly safe so you may want to give it a try.
1. Enrrol on the android 12 beta program, AND MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR DATA
2. Install the update
3. Now exit from the beta program
4. Now you should have an update, it's a rollback to the stable version of android 12. After you installed the update the phone will restart and factory reset.
5. Do the setup as normal
In the end you may have unlocked the bootloader, to check just go to developer options and check if it is enabled or not.
Can we get a video of how to do this?

MOD Edit: Same problem, can't solve it.
Looks like this is a common issue, I will look the documentation of QPST and see if I see the cause of the problem. Thank you guys for helping up this project
So I found that that version of QPST is outdated(it's the 2.7 build 140 and the latest version is 2.7 build 460). I am leaving a zip with it here.
Try and see if this time around we manage to unlock the bootloader
MOD EDIT:
This is the latest version

#mcl, I have the same problem as you have, I live in Portugal and bought a used Pixel 4 but apparently it's origin is the US, Verizon. From your original post I take it that you didn't try this method yourself and hope others will try? Or were you successful?

My guess is: if your pixel's " OEM unlocking " is greyed out it will not be possible to unlock. Although I didn't try the EDL route I'm quit sure that at some point you will get a message "bootloader is locked"

Hey I am quite busy recently so I haven't really had time to look more on the thread, though I believe there will always be a way, it may be hard to find but no OS is perfect, and Android is no exception. As it turns out, even if this method worked, when it connect to the internet there will be a high chance that using the IMEI of the phone it will "remember" it's a locked model and won't allow you to flash new firmware.
However I am working on a new method, which is also safer, though I have still work to do, so when It is ready I am going to publish another guide.
Good luck all untill them
Hi mcl, my problem is: I do like to change OS and I did so on my previous HTC M7 and M10. And these 2 phones still function with PixelExperience 10 or 11.
But at best I'm a simple layman with a lot of enthusiasm.
Anyway, I will keep an eye on this thread and hopefully you will find time to make this new method work!
By the way, I see that we are "neighbors", I live in Portugal.

Hahah yeah we are definitely neighbors.
Well I do want to become a software engineer though right now I am just a busy enthusiastic.
I also really enjoy custom OS, when I had my Galaxy S9 I used to have custom ROMs.
Hope I manage to find a new solution as soon as posible for all if you guys!!!

We are not doing physical atack, so that is not a problem for us.
Also, I don't believe the pixel 4 XL is perfect, for sure there are errors and security vulnerabilities. We just need to find them.

Doesn't work on GDPR model rmx3311.
It's not working...
For global is not possible to unlock the bootloader. In my opinion we can submit "Please add" in report bug to release this feature for RMX3311(Global). I already did it, lets more people did this, they may be take action, or just support my report.

If they didn't released the APK till now (it's been one year from launch) i really doubt that they will in the future. The European variants, allot of them, are spelled by carriers and the carriers do not want customers to be able to change their modified firmwares.
Dear Anderson,
Greetings from realme.
In response to your concern, wem are sorry to inform you that we do not recommend you to unlock the device because there is a risk of data security and some device apps may not function properly, and also it may void the warranty.
