I love the early mi days where unlocking is pretty much straightforward and simple. Now it became so hectic that some need to flash dev roms to get past any error.

This tutorial worked for my Redmi Note 3 a few months back. I had to forcibly unlock the bootloader as the Mi tool kept on failing. The device has been running Nitrogen OS rather smoothly since then.

Realme 1 will get Android P{Confirmed}

Rejoice realme users.Your beloved device will get the Android P update.
The news was made public by geekyranjit in Twitter.He said that the company has confirmed the p update for realme 1 when he enquired about the same.
Update:Now it has been confirmed by the company directly.
Source:https://twitter.com/realmemobiles/status/1002391788957519872?s=19
Im eager to buy Realme 1 but ColorOS is blocking me!
If its gonna Android P , but then also ColorOS would be ColorOS!
Dont know about bootloader unlocking yet, Heard that Oppo phones are not unlockable :crying:
No bro eventually it will be rooted, have patience

If Oppo doesn't Provide the Unlocking Code or Support Fastboot Binaries, then it would only depend on some Tricks or Any Loopholes that would do the same.
Lets take the Eg. Of Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 , it has got bootloader unlocked and within a month Custom Roms have started to come up.
Now lets take the Other Eg. Motorola Droid Turbo (Int. Version of Moto Turbo which i was using in 2015) it doesnt have Unlockable bootloader , but within 1 year developers have successfully Unlocked the Phone!
And another, Droid Turbo 2 (Int. Version Of Moto X Force which im using now) it also had unlockable bootloader , and its going to be 2years but till now People are unsuccessful for getting Root/Unlocking due to the fix in Loophole.
So if Oppo is Not Providing the Unlocking Code or It doesn't Support Unlocking (as far as i know now) its not to be correct to assume it would get rooted/unlocked but can only hope for good.
Realme 1 has mediatek P60 AI chipset. Also Android 8 doesn't support AI feature but Android 9 (Android P) does. ColorOs 5 is supported and powered of AI feature like Battery, Camera, etc. Maybe Company push stock Android. But isn't bad ColorOS.

I think its never gonna happen! Its like Same, Mi rolling out Stock Android 8.0 insted of MIUI 10 or Honor rolling Stock Android 8.1 insted of EMUI!
I didnt used colorOS or any oppo phone before but MIUI,EMUI,UX5.0,Touchwizz... and i didnt keep up with them especially with MIUI and EMUI!
I keep Moto as my primary device (since 2013) due to stock android and simple interface.
ColorOS wouldn't be the deal breaker for the most but for some (like me) its making me think twice before buying

The phone is running on 8.1 Oreo, that means it has project treble support, so there will be no issues in unlocking the bootloader and developing a rom for the Realme 1. Just have a little patience.

Project treble means to have separate Vendor partition , so that GSI can be boot without compiling a seperate rom with a specific vendor tree. But it dosent mean treble=unlocking

Yeah, but it's a little less difficult for the developers to unlock the phone. I think you know that starting with Android 8.x (Oreo), Google separated the Vendor and Manufacturer. That means the OS can be updated without having to touch the vendor implementation. Before project treble, The Vendors have to wait for the Unlock Code from the manufacturer which was very lengthy and delaying process, at least project treble solves this issue.

Only Manufacturers signed images can be flashed with locked bootloader , so if you are planning to boot a LOS GSI you will need a Unlocked bootloader , and by no way you can sign a image as same as manufacturer so jt will fail, as far as unlocking is concerned its in the hand of oppo only bcoz i heard that oppo deleted the fastboot binaries of the phone and to unlock the bootloader ,there must be a loophole or some think which can be exploited otherwise it would suffer the same fate as droid turbo 2. In future what happens i/we dont know but till now its correct to assume that phone is unlockable bcoz oppo is not supporting bootloader unlocking
Here, look at this,
There's an option to allow permissions for unlocking Bootloader, so i think in future maybe Oppo will allow modifications.

This option will be there on all devices even on Droid Turbo 2 , and LG phones which i have used and are not unlockable.
Even CM12.1,13 has that for no reason.
You can turn it on off on off...

Poco F1 Bootloader Unlock discussion

SEE EDIT 2
So Xiaomi has started implementing a new policy whereby you need to wait 1440 hours before unlocking your bootloader. That translates to a massive 2 months. This is just ridiculous.
Many people with Poco F1 have reported this issue. Some people tried a different version of Mi unlock tool and their time was halved to 720 hours(1 month) but even that is ridiculous. I don't recommend this because spamming mi servers may lead to further problems.
How has your experience been with the bootloader unlock process. How many hours is the waiting period? If someone discovers any un official method, do post that as well.
Edit -
If you want to help the community, please post these info on SUCCESSFUL bootloader unlock.
MIUI Version -
Mi Unlock version -
How old your Mi account is -
Wait period -
Edit 2
There was a lot of furore over this issue. A few tech websites published this issue, reddit roasted them over it and Twitter users also kept asking questions from Jai Mani and Manu Kumar Jain.
They listened. You should be able to unlock Poco F1 in 3 days now. But other Xiaomi phones may face upto 2 months waiting time and thats pathetic.
https://twitter.com/jaimani/status/1036913185737998337
This waiting period shaningan by Xiaomi is going to affect Custom ROM/Kernel development. 30/60 days are enough for any developer to move on and same applies for any flashaholic user.
Same problem
I used an old id it was 1440
Then a newnly created one it became 720
I dont know why the **** they are playing with us

Apparently, the phones can only be unlocked using the codes provided by Xiaomi. I remember Sony doing something like this as well.

This should be a warning to users. 360 hours seems like a blessing now. If you get 360 hours, be happy and wait it out. Don't keep trying and get it 'upgraded' to 720 hours or 1440 hours.
The issue has been raised by XDA. Hoping to get an answer from Xiaomi soon.

got 720 hours with the latest mi unlock
the only thing i hate about xiaomi. oh yes and the miui.

If unlock not possible in your case go to lg v30 section and grab the unlock.bin file from bootloader unlock thread and follow the step for lg v30 .may be good luck for u
Couldnt unlock says 720 hours wait
I tried many versions but same wait is showing up, guess we'll have to discover an unofficial method now.

This.
Also, people should just root their old phones and keep their new phone stock. Now you can softbrick your old phone without stressing about it. Imagine bricking your new phone.... with no community support since it's very new.

Does the stuffs in this subforum works for Note 10 Lite? Like recoveries, ROMS... etc

My Mi Note 10 Lite just arrived. Hoping to root it.
IS there a telegram group?

Well for rooting you will need to unlock bootloader. After that you will need to wait for recovery. Someone will make it sooner or later. Once it is launched in India you will start seeing some progress. I just bought myself yesterday. Tried gcam of mi note 10 pro. It worked except slow motion. Since the hardware is same I guess most of the things will work

Yea I started the unlock process of 7 days the moment i got it... still sometime to go... I will use it as my main phone after unlock since unlocking resets everything... while flashing recovery and magisk should still keep my file.
Err why wait for India? Aint no talented people in the rest of the world?

My last device was Redmi note 8 pro. And for the purpose of development Xiaomi gave mobile units to developers in India. And after few days we started seeing recoveries and roms. So imo we should wait till it get released there or maybe someone else talented enough from other than India will do some miracles.

Roms

Hi,

Any idea when we can get them.

Snapdragon can't be rooted past bootloader 2. As far as roms go, there are only stock roms, but somewhere on the forum its mentioned about GSI roms, but VOLTE is broken because its always been a samsung issue and not much work being done. I'm sure there are a few people out there working on personal builds, but nothing released to the public that I've seen. (Aside from Exynos)
