Hello,
I want to buy a Xiaomi mi 10 ulra with global rom installed by tradingshenzen on it.
I guess they unlocked bootloader to do it.
My question is : if the bootloader has been locked again by them after installing the global rom.
Can i unlock it again ? Do i need to do the Xiaomi process again or just easy way ?
Thanks for help

Hello everyone!
I bought a mi 4c from gearbest which came with a custom\unofficial possibly full bloatware rom, because of this i decided to install the last version of miui for mi 4c from xiaomi.eu! To do this i had to unlock my bootloader, yes my bootloader was looked because before i thought about xiaomi.eu rom, i had installed the lastest stable chinese rom by using the rom updater which i think that it looked the bootloader when i did this. I don't know if the bootloader was looked or not while i had that custom rom on the phone because i did not check it.
So my bootloader was looked and i wanted to install TWR to install the xiaomi.eu rom because of the international support and because of google services and play store which i had tried to install in the chinese stable rom but i had failed miserably to do so! So i want to install TWR but i did not want to wait for the sms with the code to unlock my phone because i had read people complaining that the code takes a long time to arrive and etc! So to solve my problem i used this unofficial way to unlock my bootloader -> http://en.miui.com/thread-247961-1-1.html <- which worked and i got my bootloader unlock, installed TWR and the lasted xiaomi.eu rom for mi 4c
/\ I regret using the unofficial method to unlock my phone, because two days later o got the sms with the code Haste is the enemy of perfection!
But now i want to go back to stable chinese rom because my phone is overheating and throttling a lot and also the GPS works really bad which it did not on the chinese rom!
Now for the doubts:
1 - If i use Fastboot + Miflash to flash the last stable chinese rom, is there the risk of bricking my phone? Because of the way i had unlocked my bootloader i mean?
2 - Is there way to lock the bootloader again, so i can unlock it the right way? I mean using mi unlock and the code that i've received? It will make any difference using the official way in relation to the unofficial way, it will be worth it i mean?
1. only risk is you have a power blackout
2. you can, fastboot oem lock
Hi! Please I really need your experience
I will receive my new Mi 4c with the Bootloader Unlocked from the re seller , Rooted and with Multi language ROM.
Do I have to unlock the bootloader with the official method (which means flashing Cina Dev ROM -to re lock the bootloader- and go on with the Xiaomi's code procedure..) or it is possible to get all things done as soon I get my device by choosing an unofficial weekly miui.eu international ROM and install it normally from the Updater app but also be able to update it every week via Updater without issues?
My problem with flashing is that I don't have my laptop and the one I have now runs win xp.

1. i suppose no, it will only brick if you have TWRP recovery flashed to recovery partition. My workaround is to never flash TWRP in the first place, but boot to TWRP from Fastboot every time i want to flash something. definitely a hassle but should be guaranteed to work. Never tried though, i am fine with CM ROM and unlocked bootloader.
2. If i read correctly, the latest dev ROM will lock the bootloader back. So if you want to unlock, you must flash the old MIUI version as suggested in the unofficial unlock method again.

you can unlock via unofficial method. Win XP should be able to flash it. CMIIW though
Thanks but it's not necessary anymore ..I've changed the Mi4c with Mi4.
Hi, I am planning to buy a realme 5 pro device. I love playing around with the custom roms and stuff. I want to know :
Is it easy to unlock the bootloader of the R5Pro ?
If i wanted to flash the stock rom, is it possible to do that?
And how about the OTA Updates and stuff after flashing the Stock rom?
How about relocking the bootloader?
I used a poco f1 before. It is so easy to flash the stock rom and relock or unlock the bootloader on the redmi devices. Please compare with if needed.

Please go ahead and buy it if you are tight budget
Xiaomi devices have more development then realme.
But real me too can be unlocked easily and flashed with custom ROM.
There are very good developers for this device too
Yes you can Unlock and relock bootloader in realme 5 pro. There are official methods to do these process.
There are lot of custom rom available and also you can flash stock rom even after flashing custom rom. You just have to flash OZIP file downloaded from realme website in TWRP and for software updates you can do the same process.
Am wondering if this phone has already been re-branded and if it is ok to follow the guides to unlock bl and install TWRP

Install stock fastboot rom in miflash tool, it has lock bootloader option. Search for Munchy x3 pro back to stock fastboot on YouTube for a very detailed tutorial.

I have two questions.
First of all, after relocking the bootloader, would it require go through the 7 days countdown to unlock it again should I want to?
Secondly, would the process of relocking require wiping the phone?
Im not sure about the 7 days,but locking and unlocking bootloader deletes all data
Hey guys!
I unlocked the bootloader and flashed the global rom into a chinese xiaomi 12. It's possible to lock the bootloader with the global rom?
Don't do it, this will hard brick your device.
