Hello. I know it is little bit late but for me this is something new. So finally I have Xiaomi Mi Mix. So I want to install Lineage OS and I read need to unlock bootloader. So I don't know should I need to use Mi Unlock app to unlock bootloader or just enable OEM unlock and I can flash custom twrp? For the moment I enable this feature in developer options.

I know this may be a stupid question but I'm looking to unlock the bootloader of my mi 8 global variant because I want to try a few different custom ROMs but I don't know if I will be able to relock the bootloader if I want to go back to the original Xiaomi firmware?
Any help will be appreciated
I heard flash back will brick the phone
Unlock china version and re-lock with global/xiaomi.eu/custom bricks the phone.
Yeah you should be fine to relock if it's a global device.
But I think you'll also have to wait another 360h or more to unlock it again
Global Version can relock!
Global Rom bricked the Device if you Relock it!
Must i wait if i would lock a relocked Global Version? Or can I use the Mi Account instead?
Dear All as we know for Unlocking bootloader taking to much time is there any way to unlock quickly or Chinese ROM to global Rom without Unlocking
Please let me know to unlock bootloader unofficially in MI 5. I have tried many methods suggested in the web but have not been successfull.
can i install eu xiaomi roms without unlockbootloader and if unlocked can lock it again
You can't install eu ROM (custom ROM) without unlocking bootloader. And if you use any other ROM then the initial one meant for your phone don't relock bootloader. Or also you will brick your phone.
