The first we need to know is how to enter diag mode, in miui seems to be *#*#717717#*#*. I'm on cm12.1 and that doesn't work.
I think our phone only support band 40,
My be our device hardware is incompatible for band 20.
but if somebody finds a way to unlock then it would be great.
How about this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2871269

Dear Sir/Madam,
Thank you for your support and attention towards XiaoMi.
Please kindly note that we haven't released European version phones on http://www.mi.com/en/store​ yet,
and the phones released in other markets/countries might have network compability issues if you use them in Europe.
Please do noted that we can't change the phone's network through any software update,
as it's controlled by the hardware on motherboard, kindly understand that it's fixed.
Sorry again for the inconvenience brought to you, but you can pay attention to the future release of phones in European market.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

Mi Mix 3 Global Edition - How to Unlock the Bootloader?

Hello everyone. What are steps required to unlock the bootloader on the Mi Mix 3 Global Edition? Or is there any sites selling the phone with the bootloader already unlocked? UK here - thanks.

Same process as Chinese I would assume. Go to mi unlock website, follow steps, and download software, wait 72 hours and unlock.
Wouldn't advise on buying one with unlocked bootloader

What are the benefits of flashing a CC9 Pro to Mi Note 10 (global rom)?

Sorry if this is a silly question but can someone list out why someone would want to unlock their BL , and flash a mi note 10 rom?
I ordered a CC9 Pro that is supposed to come with all official google support (according to the seller). i DO need to have:
-Google pay
-Google playstore
-Gcam
Can I stay with the original CC9 pro firmware? I don't want to tinker too much since i've read some horrible stories of a bricked phone here...

I don't think you can use Google Pay on an unlocked phone. Something to do with security.

thanks . thats exactly why i do NOT want to unlock the bootloader. But I"m trying to figure out what i'm missing if I stay on CC9 pro firmware

I'm not sure going to Mi Note 10 firmware will bring any benefits.
CC9 firmware has call recording built into the dialer, you'll lose that feature if you switch to Mi Note 10 firmware. I think you'd lose more than you'd gain.
What features do you want to gain?
Sent from my Mi Note 10 using Tapatalk
Thanks, as long as I can use the 3 i mentioned, I"m fine with CC9 pro then..
I really dont know what features i COULD gain with a mi note 10 actually. is there a place to read up the differences?

Mi Note 10 comes with stock camera app, not GCam. I don't know if it's different to the CC9 camera app, but I doubt it's noticeably different to most people.
Mi Note 10 has Google dialler as oppose to CC9 which has MUIU dialer. MUIU dialer has extra features like call recording built in.
Mi Note 10 has Google Pay and it works as fine, I've used it myself.
I'm not completely sure if the CC9 works with Google pay or not, you could maybe try this out on your phone? Though I'm pretty sure that a phone with unlocked bootloader wouldn't work with Google Pay.

You can't use gpay on an unlocked phone with stock ROM. You would have to install TWRP and flash xiaomi.eu. It's a modded MIUI ROM with pre-installed Google Services + working Google Pay.

[Help] Poco X3 Bootloader Unlock (Indian Variant)

Hello,
I’ve an issue unlocking the POCO X3 Bootloader. Please help if you can.
Below are the device details:
• Model – Xiaomi POCO X3
• MIUI Version – 12.0.2
• Android Version – 10
Below are the things I have done:
• Setup Mi account with my SIM Card option
• Turned on all Sync options available – Notes, Contacts etc
• ‘Find my Device’ is also working
• Mi account is successfully added to the device from Mi Unlock Status page
• OEM Unlocking & USB Debugging, USB Debugging (Security settings), Install via USB.. these options are enabled in Developer settings
• After this on connecting the app to Mi unlock tool, I’m able to sign into the Mi tool, after clicking on unlock, it goes to 99% and then throws this error.. couldn't unlock please add your account in miui settings
• I have also tried factory reset, and I have also tried making another Mi account with another SIM card.. the situation is still the same.
Please advise!
Under developer options there is a section where you need to add you Mi account details. Have you done that?
There isn't an Indian variant for POCO 3 NFC yours is Poco X3, it's another phone.... Sorry

Are you sure you did it? It is 2 options below the OEM unlock option in Developer section. You have to use mobile data only and you have to receive an ”your account is bond to your device” (or something like this) message.

Welcome to the club. Have been facing the same issue since date of purchase (2weeks now). And you are not alone , almost everyone I know with Indian variant has the same issue. Waiting for poco to fix this. I've tweeted them about it, I suggest you do the same

I was waiting for someone to create a thread. I am also facing the same issue while following all the steps and it saying "Added successfully. Mi Account is associated with this device now.".
Mi Unlock Tool throws an error at 99% and complaints the device isn't bound to my Mi Account.
Also, one more interesting thing I have observed is that instead of a device name in Mi Cloud like "Redmi 5", it shows "M2007 J20CI" which is not Poco X3 ?
I have tweeted ( twitter.com/vasanthdevelop/status/1318798136987430913 ) to Poco about allowing us to unlock the bootloader and releasing the kernel sources.
i am also having the same issue device is added sucessfully to mi account over mobile data but mi ulock tool gets stuck at 99% saying bind your mi account to device.

Poco X3 NFC aka surya model number is M2007J20CG. On the other hand the Indiana varient aka karna model number is correctly M2007J20CI. On my international model it also displays my model number instead of device name in MI Cloud so that is not the issue I think.
Try use mi unlock tool mod version or old version.
There is a bug with trying to unlock Karna (indian version)'s bootloader.
A fix is apparently coming, I'd suggest you join the poco x3 official group on Telegram, and you should be able to get updates.

I tried joining a Poco X3 Telegram group where they just made fun that I couldn't unlock the bootloader ? is there another group? Could you give me the link to join the group? ?
This is now resolved I believe
Yes karna bootloader bug seems to be fixed
My karna got instant unlock 2 days back (probably because I tried to bind account almost a month back)

? Congratulations! I was wondering, even if I unlocked my bootloader now. We don't have many ?* stable (daily-driver) custom ROMs that work with Karna.
Still getting this error on Indian variant purchased last month. Any suggestions guys?

I also still can't unlock it. Did you unlock? I'm on latest 12.0.5.0 and have same error. Is Xiaomi/Poco aware of that problem? Did they respond somehow to it? Somone mentioned any reason? They promised launch day kernel source realase (another story) but what is the use of it bootloader is locked? Pathetic
We should spam this people to make themb do something with that

Xiaomi support

Hello,
can anybody tell me how long xiaomi will support our devices? I don't know if unlock bootloader and go to custom, or wait a bit longer.
