You don't need to flash any Dev ROM. Just use older MiUnlock tool. Before trying, update your Mi forum account, log in to mi cloud, update phone's driver and then try. If it still stuck at 50%, then just wait for some more days. It'll unlock normally.
About edl mode problem, I'm having the same problem now. Please inform me if you get any solution.

Make sure you login to the mi cloud + mi account on your phone + mi flash unlock using your mobile phone number that you used to get the unlock code. I had Global Rom and was stuck at 50% but unlocked with Global Dev ROM. Coincidence or not? I don't know, worth a try.. If you're on the Global ROM you can flash Global Dev through the updater app.

yes their database isn't updated i guess.. i think i have to wait few more days!

Help :Bootloader stuck at 50% on Redmi pro

When trying to unlock the bootloader I am stuck at 50% and it fails because it cannot verify the device.
My find device is set to on (some say it needs to be)
i have also tried to flash the dev rom using the flash tool but it runs to completion straight away and the phone remains in fastboot mode and doesn't reboot and so when manually rebooting nothing happens.
This is nearly 2 weeks of work to flash my phone because there is a virus in the Note application whereby advertisement banners appear when connected to the internet and with a malware scan the problem lies with a trojan in the note application meaning I have to flash the phone.
No progress at all in a week and I can seem to get around this 50% bootloader problem, does this mean Xiaomi haven't verified my request ? when logging into the bootloader it says checking permissions and then proceeds to log in, Its been 4 days no since I applied for permission to unlock the bootloader.
Help would be appreciated this is a new phone.

The developer rom flashes instantly like within a second so I am not convinced it has flashed.
usb debugging is on
find device is on
logged onto mi account
but how do you log onto the flash tool ? do you mean log into the bootloader unlock tool ?

Redmi pro rom problem

Hi everyone!
I have bougth a Redmi Pro on Gearbest and it came with Chinese/English Version of MIUI.
After a week of usage, i turned off my xiaomi and when i turned back on, it stucked on a Mi logo. Far as i discovered searching on web, it was a bug that other peopel have reported too.
I took a opportunity of having this bug to fix, to put other rom on the phone. A rom with Portuguese language witch is my mother lang.
I tried to put the new rom via "SP Flash took" with the fastboot mod but without success.
I requested the unlocking on Xiaomi Unlocking site and when they repplyed and i connected the xiaomi to the computer, the program (XiaomiMiFlash) gave me an error message telling ""Couldn´t verify device. Current account is diferent from the account info in the device"
No i can´t do nothing with the phone.
Can you guys have some idea how can i solve this?
Thank you all!
There is a good chance that the phone is already unlocked.
What was the problem with fastboot? Maybe drivers issue?
Have you tried flashing TWRP? If it takes then the phone is unlocked and you can proceed with flashing the xiaomi.eu or globerom.

Tks 4 the support!
About the Fastboot i putted the phone on fastboot mode and i disabled the Driver Signature Enforcement on Windows. I connected the phone to the computer and started to run the SP Flash Tool. After the process was completed it wont gave me any result because the phone still stucked on Mi logo..
I did'n tried the TWRP because in every tutorial tells me that i need to go to the Developer Mode and activate the USB debugging i can not access to that because the phone don't give me more than the Mi logo.
hmm the fastboot method should have worked. Have you tried it on another computer, maybe 32bit windows?
When finished flashing with miflash in fastboot did it say it was ok at the end or did it give you an error? Als tried to reboot a few times after flashing without usb cable in the phone?

Im losing my mind!
I tried again in my father's desktop wich have a 64bit windows 7 (I havent a 32 bit at home. I will try to get one borrowed)
I tried with the SP Flash Tool following a guide from "xiaomitips" and, in this computer, the program dornt even recognize my phone. I push the Download button but that give me no signal.
Is there any other way to do this? Other ways to put the rom in the phone? (Sorry the noob language)

I'm out of ideas at this point.
I had some trouble with fastboot that my phone did restart when in fastboot mode.
Then i had to change the order of plugging in the cable and starting the program but after that all worked.
No idea what next ...
I had this issue with a Redmi 3. I can't remember the exact solution but I believe you have to have the developer ROM installed in order to unlock the bootloader. Maybe if you search for an anterior model such as the Redmi 3 you will find more information on how to load your ROM. I'm sure that it's the same method for most Xiaomi phones. Good luck!
I heard about do a Hard Reset but i dont know how to do that because i cant access to the OS of the xiaomi.
Is there a way to do a hard reset with the xiaomi stucked on Mi logo?
Tks!
Happy 2017 for all!
I tried to put my phone one Recovery Mode but it is blocked. Its like the phone on this video:

Hi
Does your problem with sp flashtools and flashing the ROM be solved ?
Sent from my Redmi Pro
I had this problem, but I'd installed TWRP already. But you shouldn't need USB Debugging on to flash TWRP. If you manage to flash TWRP, flash a new ROM (I recommend xiaomi.eu (I think they have Portuguese)) and wipe the Dalvik cache, /cache, and /data (you probably won't have to wipe /data/media).
Miui themes
Sorry will start new item
Have you tried a different cable, that is why mine wasn't recognized at first.
I'm having the same problem here. The phone rebooted itself when I changed the locale, and hung at the Mi logo. I already had TWRP flashed. I also took the opportunity to install a new ROM; the Global Dev ROM. It installed with no errors and I wiped the Dalvik, cache, etc. Still hangs at the Mi logo, but this time without the little loading dots at the bottom. Any suggestions?
Update: I can bring it back to the original state with the loading dots and "powered by Android" at the bottom with a backup I took before flashing the new rom, but still no progress.
I managed to restore my phone using the video:
Flash Xiaomi Redmi Pro Using SP Flash Tool [Locked Bootloader]
I can't post links since I don't have enough posts here yet, but search for it on Youtube.
Update: It seems like the unlocking permissions on my account have been retroactively rejected, I wonder if that has something to do with it. I also can't seem to find the Global ROM for the Redmi Pro anymore, just the China one. Does anyone have a link for the official Global ROM on the Xiaomi site?
Update 2: Suddenly I have unlock permission again, without reapplying, so that's cool. I installed the Eu HMPro ROM, everything's working well so far.

You could try dowloading the official rom and then download the CHINESE version of mipc suite then enter fastboot and connect the phone
Normally the chinese mi pcsuite automaticly detects the phone is in fastboot mode, you could use google translate to translate it all just choose redmi pro on model selector (the top selection bar)the text there is untranslateable just choose the one that says pro
And then under it chose the one that translate to chinese
After That there's two tick box under it, choose the ROM you downloaded
After that chose the one that translate to install brush package, if it doesn't work choose the download brush package next to it
Thus method worked for me when my phone bricked hope it helps you

Hi friend,
I believe, you already have MI account and permission SMS from Xiaomi. If not, please read how to get bootloader unlock permission from Xiaomi over the net. If you have that permission, please make sure that you are using latest version of MI unlock tool.
Then log in with your MI username and password. Activate developper options in the phone, then USB debugging + OEM unlock in the developper options. Then go to fastboot and connect the phone. Check wheter the phone drivers are properly installed in Windows.
If everything is OK, then hit UNLOCK. If you have all of the above completed, then you should succeed.
If you want to flash another rom in the phone, you can make that without to unlock bootloader with an Xiaomi enginnering cable. Google is your friend

Redmi note 7 bricked with global rom

Hi, I was wondering if there is any solution to recover my phone, what happens is that a few days ago I was flashing my phone with my flash, but I forgot select the option that only flash everything without blocking the bootloader, instead of this, my phone got blocked and won't let me access because it marks "this miui version cannot be installed on this device", my pc detects the fastboot mode but it doesn't let me flash roms, I tried the latest Chinese version but it doesn't work.
My phone came with the bootloader unlocked and the global rom when I bought it.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.
Maybe try this tool : https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7/how-to/tool-xiaomi-pc-tools-t4059275
Just unlock the bootloader again with same Mi account. Then continue using this OS.
The area code of the ROM must same to the bootloader area code, or the phone will refuse to boot when the bootloader in Lock State. Installing and using a ROM with different area code need an unlocked bootloader.
