Cannot unlock bootloader on Redmi note 3 (Сouldn't verify device) - Redmi Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The steps I followed:-
Step 1. Download the Mi Unlock app to PC, and sign in with your Mi Account;
Step 2. Shut down your phone manually, and hold Volume down key and Power button to enter Fastboot mode;
Step 3. Connect your phone to PC using USB cable and click "Unlock"
Unlocking process stops at 50% and shows "Сouldn't verify device. Current account is different from the account info on the device".
P.S I didn't send any unlock request to xiaomi but my mi account is eligible for unlocking (as per Mi unlock tool).
I'm a diamond member.
Using redmi note 3 snapdragon variant(India)
Also signed in to i.mi.com and verified the device.

You need to have the latest Chinese Developer ROM installed to unlock (at least that is what I found).

Well I tried various rom's, linking my mi account each time with the device and even doing things like making sure 'Find my device' showed I was outside China etc. I did try various unlock tools, But once the developer ROM came out it worked straight away with the MiUnlock 017.1 version.
Note: I had applied and received the SMS from Xiaomi to say I could unlock my bootloader.

Isnt working for me

If in phone settings ---> Mi Account your device shown as activated and linked to your mobile number then it's really strange.
As an option I suggest to try newer version of this tool. 1.1.0317.1.

For me switching to 6.3.31 china dev rom finally helped.
Account activation -> finding device on i.mi.com -> applying to Xiaomi for unlock -> waiting about 2 weeks -> switching to china dev rom -> successful unlock.

for me nothing is helping, tried everything :'(

Me too

They do not want us to unlock the bootloader...
They say, "due to security reasons" our customer should get unlock sms, need to use account on unlock tool, use same account on device , try various roms ( including chinese ! ) , blah blah blah...
They want to lock with their OS, monitor customers and make customers into part of their product. Yeah, literally Xiaomi is selling/will sell us.
Thank you Xiaomi.

I successfully unlocked it officially in one go .

I had the same issue with my RN3. Re-checked everything again and found a silly mistake. Before booting into fastboot mode, enable 'Allow OEM Unlocking' from developer options. Then retry the same method by Mi Unlock Tool.
Hit Thanks if I Helped You!!!

It could be that your phone number doesn't match with your Mi ID. I would suggest you to login into your Mi account using your *phone number* and check whether you have the permission to unlock the bootloader on that ID (associated with your phone number) after login. As for unlock tool, it should be able to unlock bootloader on China Stable/Dev as long as it is original MIUI ROM.

If you're getting error at 50%
1. Factory reset the phone
2. Don't set up the Wireless network and Mi Account on first boot
3. After initial setup turn on Developer options, then turn on USB debugging and OEM unlocking
4. Reboot the phone
5. Set up the wireless network
6. Go to Developer options > Mi Unlock status and click on Add account and device then set up Mi Account using account Id (accept every pop-up)
7. Reboot into fastboot and try to unlock your phone

You have to reboot to fastboot mode, there are two ways:
First enable developer setting tapping 7 time on build number in phone's information. Open developer setting and enable USB debug.
Download fastboot driver, you can find it on Google.
Then:
1) Open CMD from fastboot folder and type
fastboot reboot bootloader
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Or turn off your phone, then press power button + volume down
2)Wait for the phone to reboot into fastboot mode
3)Type in CMD
fastboot oem unlock "your code"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4)Then you unlocked your phone and you can reboot typing:
fastboot reboot

for anyone having trouble unlocking bootloader for g7-L01 ive tried on two different g7-L01 and worked perfect
ive also included twrp and stock recovery too for flashing via fastboot
download these files
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/agrehokgvf3b5/unlock_bootloader
make sure usb debugging is selected by tapping on build until developer option comes available then select developer menu and turn on usb debugging
now first you need to make sure your on lollipop for serial number to show properly (doesn't show on KitKat for some reason )
now lets get started open new folder I have put on here and select huaweiproductIDGenerator
under product model select HUAWEI Y300-0100
make sure to copy product model on to notepad as you will need this
type on on phone *#06# for iemi and input it under Product IEMI/MEID:
now copy and paste product id to notepad as you will need this for later
on your phone go to settings/about phone then status and make a record of your serial number on notepad too
now go to this website and make sure you login if not then sign up http://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/hwdownload/download
now go to download then bootloader unlock it will take you to another page agree and continue
(IMPORTANT) under product model will be this HUAWEI Y300-0100
then serial number then iemi now finally input the new product id you took note of earlier and fill in verification code and then select commit.
you should now see your bootloader unlock code at the bottom.
Turn off phone then holding vol down and power until you get fastboot screen then connect to PC by USB.
Once connected open cmd and type fastboot devices to see if your device shows
Now type. fastboot oem unlock (yourunlockcode) then press enter.
By now your g7 should reset and wipe everything as it does when unlocking bootloader.

Guide: How to bootloader unlock your Honor 7 (official and unofficial methods)

All Honor devices currently shipped with a locked bootloader. As long as manufacturers provide a way to unlock, then we're down with that - it helps keep your device secure and means that if you lose it, it's harder for people to steal your data (the process of unlocking the bootloader wipes the phone).
There are two ways to unlock your Honor phones bootloader, which will then allow you to install things like custom recoveries, custom kernels / ROMs etc. The first is using the official Honor method, which is free, and the second is using a third party, which costs €4 Euros, but may be the quickest option if the official method isn't working for you.
The official method
In order to unlock your Honor device using the official method, complete the following steps:
Visit https://www.emui.com/en/plugin.php?id=unlock&mod=detail and either create a new account or login with an existing Huawei account.
In the form displayed after logging in, enter:
Your phone model (PLK-L01 for the Honor 7)
Your phone serial number (this can be found in Settings -> About -> Status)
Your phone IMEI1 (this can be found in Settings -> About -> Status)
Your phone product ID (to find this, open the dialler and enter *#*#1357946#*#*)
The captcha code
Press the 'Submit' button.
At this point you will either be provided with a code, or you will receive an error such as 'The Huawei ID used to apply for the unlock code has not been used on the device for more than 14 days.' If you get the error, you will need to use the unofficial method below.
Open a command window on your PC / Mac, which needs to have 'adb' and 'fastboot' installed from the Android SDK.
Enable USB debugging by tapping the build number in Settings -> About 5 times, then going back and selecting the option from the Development menu.
Enable OEM unlock in the Development menu.
Connect your phone to the PC and approve the security prompt on the device screen.
In the command window on your PC / Mac, enter 'adb reboot bootloader' to enter fastboot mode'.
In the command window on your PC / Mac, enter 'fastboot oem unlock [insertnumberhere]', of course using the number provided by the Huawei site.
YOUR PHONE WILL WIPE ITSELF AT THIS POINT!
That's it! You're done!

The unofficial method
In order to unlock your Honor device using the unofficial method, if for example you receive the '14 day' error from the Huwei site, complete the following steps:
On a Windows PC, download and install DC-unlocker from https://www.dc-unlocker.com/.
On your phone, enter Manufacturer Mode - open the dialler and enter *#*#2846579#*#*. In the app that then opens, select Project Menu -> Background settings -> USB ports settings -> Manufacturer Mode.
Download the Huawei driver pack from https://files.dc-unlocker.com/share.html?v=share/88D4A98C154D4E19AF9D4A1EF09BA620.
Install the Huawei driver pack by extracting the file you just downloaded (using WinRAR or similar) and running 'DriverSetup'
After installing the driver pack, connect your phone to the PC. In Device Manager, after the automated driver install, you should have no 'Unknown Devices'.
Launch the previously downloaded DC-unlocker application.
From the drop down lists, select 'Huawei Phones' and 'Auto Detect Model'.
Press the magnifying glass icon - the app will then search for your phone.
You should see an image like the one below showing your phone is found. At this point, press the 'Buy Credits' option to set up your DC-Unlocker account and purchase the 4 credits required for code retrieval (this will cost €4). You can also do this directly from the DC-Unlocker website.
After your credit purchase is complete, click the 'Server' section and enter your new DC-unlocker login details. Press 'Check Login' to validate the details (if the server is busy, this may take multiple attempts).
Click the 'Unlocking' section, and click 'Read Bootloader Code'. Do NOT click 'Unlock'. Again, if the server is busy, this may take multiple attempts. The white area of the app will now display the bootloader code. Screen grab this just in case!
Open a command window on your PC, which needs to have 'adb' and 'fastboot' installed from the Android SDK.
Enable USB debugging by tapping the build number in Settings -> About 5 times, then going back and selecting the option from the Development menu.
Enable OEM unlock in the Development menu.
Connect your phone to the PC and approve the security prompt on the device screen.
In the command window on your PC / Mac, enter 'adb reboot bootloader' to enter fastboot mode'.
In the command window on your PC / Mac, enter 'fastboot oem unlock [insertnumberhere]', of course using the number provided by the DC-Unlocker process.
YOUR PHONE WILL WIPE ITSELF AT THIS POINT!
That's it! You're done!
Did anyone succefuly try the 2nd method with a PLK-AL10 (64 GB) version?
I think it should work. Let us know if you try!

Unofficial method works for 16GB! But be very careful to click on the right button when you retrieve the Unlock Code from the DC Unlocker software.
I spent an additional 4 euros just to get it right the second time. You need the bootloader code unlock, not the unlock codes.
After that proceed to this link to root the phone. Works even when you have the latest B180 EMU rom too!

same with me..haha
Correct me if I'm wrong, but as I read it on the official Huawei site, they will drop the warranty if I ask them for the unlock code. So my question is, if I unlock my device using the second method, will Huawei know that? DC Unlocker get the code from Huawei? And can I relock the bootloader to get OTAs and unlock it again using the code that DC gives me?

YES, they will be able to see that! And no, if you relock your device it is relocked and not locked! You will have a notification about that if you are in fastboot mode! Maybe that HUAWEI deny there warranty but you should have 2 years EU warranty anyway. And last but not least: no risk, no fun!
Probleme to unlock

Click the 'Unlocking' section, and click 'Read Bootloader Code'. Do NOT click 'Unlock'. Again, if the server is busy, this may take multiple attempts. The white area of the app will now display the bootloader code. Screen grab this just in case!
Open a command window on your PC, which needs to have 'adb' and 'fastboot' installed from the Android SDK.
Enable USB debugging by tapping the build number in Settings -> About 5 times, then going back and selecting the option from the Development menu.
Enable OEM unlock in the Development menu.
Connect your phone to the PC and approve the security prompt on the device screen.
In the command window on your PC / Mac, enter 'adb reboot bootloader' to enter fastboot mode'.
In the command window on your PC / Mac, enter 'fastboot oem unlock [insertnumberhere]', of course using the number provided by the DC-Unlocker process.
YOUR PHONE WILL WIPE ITSELF AT THIS POINT!
That's it! You're done!

3. FAQ
I cannot start recovery after installing TWRP
>> ( @X04D ) Use "Power + Volume Up" to get into TWRP Recovery.
>> ( @Kikito94 ) Try to restart into recovery without USB cable connected
>> ( @spotting ) In my case both tips did not help. I've tried this image:
>>> USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK <<<
I've also re uploaded the version of HRT-Team from Huawei Club:
http://workupload.com/file/mAWV8Uq
I cannot use SuperSU / install Busybox
>> ( @spotting ) you have to "Trust" SuperSU. Open your settings, go to permissions manager, find SuperSU and activate the option Trust this app
After Unlocking the bootloader, i see a new screen at startup: Your phone is not safe ... Can i disable this screen?
>> ( @spotting ) no
After Unlocking the Bootloader, i am not able to login into my Huawei ID. For Example i am not able to download a new Design.
>> (@ ???) Huawei is offering their services to a specific location. After a you have unlocked your bootloader, the device has made a fullwipe. After a wipe, you have to reconnect with your Huawei ID >> from your registered location <<
Install ""VPN1Click" from playstore. Go to "airplane mode". activate Wireless Lan. Start VPN1click and connect to your registered location. (for example Hongkong!). Login to your Huawei Account ... disable VPN, disable airplane mode ... everything is working now.

Once DCUnlockr supports the Honor 8 (which it may already) you'll be able to unlock with that (unless Huawei sends you the unlock code but a lot of users never got an email) Then simply fastboot flash the TWRP made for your Honor 8 (it's Multilanguage) and then do a data wipe (format data, type in yes), then reboot recovery and flash SuperSU 2.76. Then you'll be rooted. I'll modify the boot.img if you guys want so it doesn't force encryption so when you go back to stock you won't have to wipe your internal storage every time.

I do not think it actually support it...I'm charging up at the moment. But indeed, honor has not gotten back to me regarding unlocking my bootloader. Have it on charger now will be trying out DCUnlockr support here in a moment.
Update:
I stand corrected, seems it was made compatible with DCUnlockr 8/18
Thanks everyone, that's kinda of exciting, I can't wait see what the future holds for this phone, thanks all of you guys for your time and efforts.
I cannot, for the life of me, activate my Club Huawei account to move beyond the first step. The account is created as it shows to currently exist when attempting to register, but logging in does not work, nor does attempting to activate the account from the automatic email after registering. Not a good start for this accustomed Nexus user.

Try using the Chinese version of the same website with Google translate.
I have had success doing this, for some reason, Huawei's US portal is disabled.
I will get my Honor8 tomorrow.
I am not able to find download-links for TWRP and Supersu
Has somebody downloaded yet and would upload them here, please?
So I can try root shortly and give a reply, if it will work.
Thanks.

We currently do not have a TWRP compatible with our device. I am going to take a look at that more so over the weekend after some homework (my work schedule is currently jacked up and driving me bonko).
If I make any progress I will PM you with instructions
Hi everyone, seen that this topic talk about root, etc...
Can we expect there will be a multitool for this 8 too ?
It will be great for debranding

Flashed it and it's working so far! Just doing a backup to verify.
I tried to flash both TWRP via fastboot to my H8-FRD-AL10.
Data transfer is working fine, but always when I reboot my phone I have still stock recovery.
Since I unlocked yesterday bootloaders appears always a new information screen, my device is unlocked and can't be trusted.
Here i have to choose, what I want:
1. Press Power to continue
2. Press Vol-Up for 3 seconds to enter erecovey and restore my device
Any ideas?

There is nothing wrong with your account,
the KEY FACTOR of successful bootloader unlocking is to have the device MIUI version match your device MIUI version on Xiaomi server
If the MIUI version on your device and Xiaomi server are not the same it WILL NOT WORK
Since Xiaomi servers are not (and probably will not be) updated with the correct details of your device, you have 2 options:
1. Your device MIUI version is shown under your avatar on MIUI forum, your are lucky - flash that same version and follow the steps above with the right ROM file
2. Your device MIUI version is not shown under your avatar on MIUI forum - flash DEV ROMs in ascending order, from low to high, untill you'll have a match
Xiaomi doesn't really wants you to unlock the bootloader, it is why they make it so difficult
they have deleted my thread and I know of at least 4 devices who got unlocked with the method above
don't waste your time on MIUI forum so called "toturials", thier whole purpes is to give you a false understanding the fault is on your side and eventually to make you give up
all they say is to wait, wait and more wait - I have waited for 2 months
Good luck!
I'm quite surprised this thread have so many views but so few comments

On every update, I download the full update package, replace the emmc file in image folder and BINGO!
For reference, and modded / unlocked emmc file:

Or even simpler, use this archive:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862693621
How to use: install mi flash if not already installed (included)
Boot to fastboot (power&Vol-), plug the phone on the PC, run the file edl.cmd from the folder fastboot_edl, the phone will boot in edl mode.
Now flash the image with MiFlash.
It will install patched bootloader and latest TWRP ZCX, and that's much quicker than flashing a full rom (take only 10 seconds versus 200 seconds when flashing a full MIUI ROM).

How to unlock Huawei P10 Lite (Android 8 EMUI 8) bootloader?

Hi there,
I am openning a new thread about this subject, because all the other threads are seem to be outdated.
I have tried below approaches:
Installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot to PC. Tried to install TWRP, but had an error because the phone is locked.
Installed KingoRoot to PC and phone. Tried to root from PC, but had an error possibly about the phone is locked.
]Installed DC Unlocker to PC and phone, paid for 4 credits. Tried to connect from PC, but unable to connect to the phone because the phone is using Android 8.
E-mailed Huawei and asked them to send me unlock code. No luck.
I have found a thread where if the phone uses Android 5.0, the owner of the thread says unlock code can be fetched from the internal files of the phone by running sudo codes from adb shell. However, had no luck downgrading the phone to Android 5.0, possibly about the phone is locked.
I appreciate if anyone can make an up-to-date suggestion.
Thank you anyways.
As far i know, there is no way to do it free. I never tested but there are sites providing paid unlock codes.
Part of them are using bug before security patches (maybe DC Unlocker too? And it's why it's not working).
The sites promise to unlock even after patches, so you can always try it. There is probably no other option, but i don't know if it works.
You can't downgrade android and do anything with phone, because phone is locked as it says - so verdict is easy - you are stuck.

Thank you for the response @Donio3d.
I have downloaded official stock rom with Android 7.0 EMUI 5.0 and will try to install it via Huawei recovery (volume+, volume-, power buttons). If I could successfully install this ROM, I am expecting DC Unlocker to work because it is clearly saying on the app that it is only working with OS below Android 8.0.
Huawei recovery shouldn't let you downgrade EMUI, but try it and post results

If it has found the working port and said, for example, "COM 7" that means the connection is successfull. Because of Android 8, some features of DC Unlocker is not working. You can try to get Bootloader code as soon as you get the application port.

Reading bootloader code...
Bootloader code : MY_CODE_REDACTED
===================================================================
As you can see, I tried detecting my phone a couple of times. And only when "Phone not found !" wasn't shown anymore then I proceeded to read the bootloader unlock code.
My suggestion is to disable HiSuite from opening upon phone connection and to close it completely so that it doesn't switch the "Manufacture mode" back to "HiSuite mode".

Wait, so what did you do? Unlocked from android 8 or downgraded in some way?
When i tried to do that, the DC Unlocked doesn't recognize my phone.

I have unlocked from Android 8.0. I followed the steps above several times and somehow managed to unlock the phone.

I'm stuck on detecting the COM port. Phone is recognized as always, then after turning on Manufacturer it shows in Windows explorer as "CD Drive" and in device manager as "WAS-LX1" tripple times and one time HDB Interface on "other devices" sections. Any ideas? Phone is recognized by minimal adb, but still not by DC Unlocker. I also tried reinstalling Google ADB drivers and allowing debugging in charging mode.
Build: WAS-LX1 8.0.0.390(C432)

Do you have the latest HiSuite installed? You might want to reinstall it, the included drivers were the only ones I needed.
1 install latest hisuite
2 open developer options and enable oem unlock and usb debugging
3 open dial pad and enter this code*#*#2846579*#*# and in background settings >usb port settings enable manufacturer mode but dont go back just stick to this menu and connect to pc and open dc unlocker and it should detect your phone.
i unlocked mine with this method with same 370 version.
I'm impressed, because it actually worked... I just needed to reinstall HiSuite and buy 4 credits for 4€.
Hi
Sorry for a basic question, i am very new to all this
1) What does this method do? Does it provide you a code to unlock bootloader or do you have to already have a code from somewhere else to use this?
I have a noob question, after aplying this procedure, is there a way to unlock the device to make it work with other carriers than tho one it's blocked in?

I think you can use the option in DC that says "Read Unlock Codes" not "Read bootloader Code".
When unlocking mine, I clicked there and it gave me some unlock codes (Lost my 4€...).
Asked to DC and they said that the codes are for unlock the network of the phone.
Cheers!
