Recently i Bought a mi5 but it is installed xiaomi.eu stable version. But i want to get back in official. Even i do not know if my device bootloader is locked or unlocked. What to do?
connect your phone in fastboot mode(VOL DOWN & POWER) and type
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
you should get
Code:
C:\>fastboot oem device-info
...
(bootloader) Device tampered: false
(bootloader) Device unlocked: true
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: true
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
(bootloader) Display panel:
OKAY [ 0.059s]
finished. total time: 0.060s
if "Device unlocked: true", then download what ever rom you want and install it
else unlock it..
Adb is required? Where to get for mi5 bro?

I messed up trying to root my phone but i found a way to fix by flashing to a newer firmware and the phone worked!
I tried to root again but this time i didnt enable developer option/usb debugging and now im stuck at bootloader screen
i cant enter recovery mode and i cant start the device.
im getting Slot _a is unbootable error message
i tried fastboot set_active _b but still getting same error..
fastboot flashing unlock doesnt work anymore because i dont have usb debugging ON
fastboot oem unlock -- getting this message
...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.004s
fastboot oem device-info ----------- (bootloader) Device unlocked: false

edit: im on version 1908,25 Global
EDIT: solved by this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/rog-phone-2/how-to/guide-convert-cn-to-ww-rom-26-08-t3961042 THANK YOU SO MUCH
Hello guys.
So, I recently bought a new phone and thought "let's try rooting my old one" and tried it on my G7+. I ended up not liking out it turned out (Netflix DRM, Vanced didn't work properly, etc).
So I reflashed the stock ROM and put the comand fastboot oem lock.
The thing is, after I boot the device again, all the messages still appear, like Your device has loaded a different operating system" and below that "ID: " (blank) and I also get "Verity mode is set to disable".
The thing is, every tutorial I come across to relock the bootloader(regular G7, G7 Power, G6, etc), says that when you enter the command "fastboot oem lock" two times, the message that you should only flash signed images, does not appear. I instantly get the state flashing_locked, and I can't continue flashing the stock firmware like every other tutorial shows.
In short, once you enter the command "fastboot oem lock", it's locked for good, and you can't do anything unless you unlock it again, starting the whole process again.
The problem is, even with the bootloader locked again, my device still shows as "insecure", Netflix is nowhere to be found on the app store, and the state of my device is not certified.
I wouldn't have unlocked If I knew it was going to be this difficult to get it back. Selling it now would be next to impossible.
Here are some examples of the errors I'm getting:

Does anyone know how to fix this?
Did you ever get this sorted ? I have the same problem on my G7 Plus. I unlocked, then loaded Lineagos, but then decided to go back to stock, I used LMSA to rescue the phone, but still got the warning and boot time "Your phone has loaded a different OS" and I can't use GPay. I tried the fastboot OEM lock (worked) and fastboot flashing lock, but I still get the warning and I can't use GPay.
I think in my case the LMSA rescue didn't work because I was originally on Android 9 and the rescue took me straing to Android 10

You can try downloading each versions from your region (RETUS, RETEU, etc) and retry the relock process until you find the correction version.

my bootloader was locked. how can i flash it again and using my phone?
i have used fastboot erase command for boot and recovery
After having problems restoring my Lineage OS (TWRP Restore), I found a guide that recommended to do a "fastboot flashing lock" and "fastboot flashing unlock" to delete the data partition. In a fit of mental derangement I did exactly did that. Well, at least the the first part. Stupid move - really. Now I'm stuck with a locked bootloader. I can't unlock it via fastboot commands:
c:\fastboot flashing unlock
FAILED (remote: 'Token Verify Failed, Reboot the device
')
fastboot: error: Command failed
Same results for "fastboot oem unlock".
Fyi:
c:\fastboot oem device-info
(bootloader) Verity mode: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
The Mi Unlock tool gives me a charming "Please add your account in MIUI's Settings > Developer options > Mi Unlock status." Which isn't possible because I had Lineage OS running and I can only get into Fastboot now. If I try to boot regularly the phone says "The system has been destroyed".
Well, I almost accepted that I have to dismantle the phone to get into EDL mode, but then I discovered hints that I might need some kind of authorization to update the phone via EDL mode. And a lot of shady offers to do exactly that ...
Did I brick my phone for good, or is there any hope to fix it?
Thanks a lot!
Hi, did you solved it?
If not, try to ut the phone in fastboot mode, then download exactly stock firmware (global, india, china,...etc) version for this phone, then flash it via Miflash.
