I request for Unlock, after 30 mins got SMS that I'm eligible for unlocking my device.
I tried on the Mi Unlock tool, got stuck at 50%, got the "Couldn't verify device" error.
Downloaded Mi5 Global Developer ROM tried to flash, got "Couldn't Verify Update" error
Downloaded Mi5 China Developer ROM and tried to flash with Mi Flash tool, got "error:FAILED(remote:device is locked, cannot erase)"
PS: My developer options doesn't have OEM UNLOCK option.

Please Help me.
You need to flash the china developer ROM in the edl mode. To get into edl:
Boot into fastboot and connect the phone to your PC. Then (assumimg you have adb and fastboot with drivers set up) type "fastboot oem edl" in the fastboot prompt. If you are in edl, the screen will be completely black and in the device manager, you should see Ports/ Qualcomm HS-USB QDloader 9008 (or something similar) . If you see it, click refresh in MiFlash and flash the china dev ROM. Then unlock your bootloader.
You can use the Global Beta version (developer version).
I also used that one and had the same problem.
Just wait another day and try again.
There seems to be some syncing between the different Mi sites (mic.om/miui.com/etc) and it not always is as quick as we want to.
Have already read about some people that had to wait a week for this.
For me it worked today, after i got the same error yesterday as you have.
Just try tomorrow and the day after that etc.

I tried getting into edl mode to flash China dev rom, but after entering the "fast boot OEM edl" command I get an error msg saying the phone needs to be unlocked before using edl

You flashed the developer rom via system update or fastboot?
Can you please give me the link to the file, because I'm facing "couldn't verify update" error always

I had the same issue, couldn't Verify Device beyond 50%, but after reading the instructions given at MIUI website, problem solved.
Firstly, install a developer ROM. Then you'll have to boot it up normally, and login to Mi Cloud, using the same user ID that Xiaomi has given the permission to unlock device.
You'll then be able to use the Mi Unlock app to unlock, using the same user ID to login.
Guys, my mi8 was unlocked while buying this. It was on miui9. I updated to miui10 via updater app. Today i've installed TWRP & rooted it. and formatted the data>flash disable dm verity to stop the encryption. Everything was ok but when i went to the settings i see the device is again locked. So i tried to unlock it but Mitool says "device already unlocked, no need to repeat unlock" and not letting me to unlock. Again i see the device is still encrypted. What can i do now to get everything okay? Because now i have a device with locked bootloader and TWRP installed. please help me

Boot into fastboot mode, connect to your computer, then use command fastboot oem device-info on your computer.
Device unlocked: (does it show locked or unlocked here)
Hi all,
I have searched for a solution to this but haven't come across anyone witht the same issue.
I bought a Mi 9 from China which came with the Global rom loaded. I found out that I couldn't use Google Pay unless I rooted with Magisk.
So I went through the process of trying to flash Magisk through fast boot (didn't work - boot loop to recovery) then with TWRP (didn't work - boot to TWRP and freeze).
I then used Miflash to flash the latest global stable version. Unfortunately I didn't notice it was defaulted to "clean all and lock" when I flashed. When the device restarted, it loaded into recovery and was no longer unlocked. The message is "This MIUI version can't be installed on this device". But I can't flash again, because its locked.
I downloaded the MiUnlock app and after running it get the message "Current account is not bound to this device" with instructions to change settings in developer options. But I can't access the developer options because the MIUI isn't loading.
So, yeah. I think I'm in trouble. Any suggestions?
If your device was global version i would say flash fastboot ROM with Mi flash tool or using script flash_all.bat. Then bound your account to your device, then try to unlock recovery. But i red that in some cases Chines version is not so simple, so search, how to flash fastboot ROM on Chines device and if there is some problems with this.
You will need adb and fastboot installed on your pc.
Upd. Man it's all over the internet, just search "This miui version can't be installed on this device". There is a fix with opening the device and so on... but if i was you i would try to contact the seller of the device and ask him to use his account to unlock recovery. My be using teamviewer or similar software.
you bought in china with global rom and it was unlocked already ? because if you tried twrp then the device must be unlocked (bootloader)
then it was a China Version with unlocked bootloader and global rom. you used then the miflash and locked the bootloader again and flashed the global rom...
so you bricked your device....
if found this in an other forum:
"Dear customers, our service provides services in a remote format, if you are from another country .
If you need Mi Authorized EDL Account or you need my services for the restoration of the brick phones and the account is deleted, mi, if you forgot , contact me on my contacts : WhatsApp +7967 777 15 98"

Thanks! I searched as suggested and am trying a fix from the MIUI forum "[FIX] unbrick your BL LOCKED phone without xiaomi id authorization!!!". If that doesn' work I'll go with the team viewer option. Cheers!

Read carefully and report
1. Try to hold down the buttons vol down and power, see if : fastboot devices sees it. If so XiaoMi Tool will restore it. If not do the same try recovery vol up + power. Do adb devices and see if anything shows up. Worst case you'll have to open the phone up and connect the EDL pins together and it will flash anything. I use minimal ADB and Fastboot phone plugged via USB cable into the computer and run those commands.
2. Fully bricks their device here is the unbrick factory method
https://c.mi.com/thread-1479882-1-0.html
that's connecting EDL pins with the phone case removed for a phone that doesn't boot at all
3. https://youtu.be/8mW0JzKow7E
here's the exact EDL test point required on Mi9
if you can't boot or recognize the device at all via fastboot or ADB. If this doesn't work nothing will...
But it will work, that's what the factory does. Obviously the last resort.
any success?
I tried to root my realme x2 pro using magisk. i patched boot.img and flashed via fastboot ( i was on latest update from realme ui2.0
RMX1931EX _11 _ F.12).
after booting into system all the google service crashed all service stopped and there were no google account on phone play store stopped working.
so i decided to re flash my device from begening and i wiped data from realme stock recovery and boot into fastboot and flashed system,vendor,boot,dtbo,vbmeta images and i reboot my phone.
From that moment my device is looping into bootloader.
I cant boot on any custom recovery, because it loops back into bootloader
If i flash stock recovery and boot into recovery, full white screen appears and my device stuck there.
In bootloader it says device state unlocked and secure boot yes. is this secure boot thing is creating this problem? or the latest patch of my system. I found that i cant flash custom recovery on realme ui 2.0 after bricking my phone.
REALME FLASH TOOL "CANNOT FIND CENTRAL DIRECTORY" ERROR

Nah bruh still nothing i visited service centre twice and they said it's motherboard issue you need to change the whole motherboard which costs approx 4000 INR.
Who would do that it's just a software problem and also i found out that if device bootloader is locked then there is only 1 tool which can make it work again that is MSM TOOL and for that we need to do that outside in shop or somewhere, you can't flash at home as it needs user id & password and that we don't have, they charge like 800 to 900 INR.
I also tried the crack version of this tool but it doesn't detect the phone and doesn't work.

You can visit Realme Service Centre and ask them to flash the software they'll charge you around 177 to 200 INR and your phone will be flashed.
Hi.
I've purchased china xiaomi 12 pro with india rom installed and unlocked bootloader and tried to flash global rom and lock bootloader.
once I turned on my device this massage was appeared: "this miui version can't be installed on this device".
then I tried to unlock bootloader in order to flash china rom but the mi unlock showed a massage for entering an account in "developer options > Mi Unlock Status".
since then phone stuck at fastboot and wont turn of. even when i force it to turn off it restarts in fastboot mode!
how can I unlock bootloader without access to developer options or flash stock rom?
problem has been solved by a auth account owner.
