I bought the phone in China as well. I found the phone is unlock already. I try to relock it because of using Android Pay. The unlock status will change to "lock" after running "fastboot oem lock". But, after rebooting the phone and run fastboot again, the status of the phone will reverted back to unlock status, ie. unlock status = True.
Anyone know what's wrong?
I know the Galaxy S7 has a 'hardware unlock', so when you unlock it you can never relock it. I'm wondering whether that's the case here aswell.

Hi, recently I switched from Nexus 5 to Lenovo P2 but the phone I got has bloatware from T-Mobile and they don't seem to hurry with releasing Nougat to my phone
I noticed that in dev setting there's an option to OEM unlock the device, does it unlock the bootloader or just permits me to unlock it manually?
If so, after unlocking all I'll need to do will be just to flash TWRP and that's it?

This option only allows you to unlock it, it doesn't actually unlocks the bootloader
I asked a bootloader unlocking from my device. If after the 14 days period I don't unlock it with fastboot, do you think my warranty is still valid ?
I am thinking oft buying this Phone but rooting is very important to me. What I have found out so far is that you have to unlock your bootloader to install TWRP. Your warranty will officially be void.
Now my question: has sb send his phone to repair in Germany? Does Lenovo really check their database for your phone? And what about this 14 days wait?
Thanks in advance
Hi! I'm not so sure if I'm the right page or if we even have a right page. I'm currently using a "xiaomi redmi note 5 ai" with bootloader locked.
I was trying to unlock the bootloader using the trick where you have to have 2 mi accounts to use but something weird happened.
When I was trying to unlock my phone after doing the trick it said "Device Unlocked. No need to repeat unlock" but I checked the status of my phone in the developer option menu and it says device is still locked and secure.
Now everytime I check the phone unlock it's just the same result. Is there anyway to fix this? Or am I stuck? :crying:
Hoping for the former rather than the latter. :crying:

FACTORY RESET
Or
Install the stock fastboot rom through mi flash and select full wipe and lock.
Hope it helps.
I bought Redmi Note 5 AI today which Boot Loader status was unlocked in the "developer option" previously and installed Global Stable 9.5.13 previously.
now when I tried to flash TWRP through cmd, it says "flashing is not allowed in lock state"
then when I checked OEM status through cmd, it shows :
Verity mode: true
Device Unlocked: false
Device Critical unlocked: false
What happen when you unlock again by MiUnlocker?
That is fake unlock. Still trying to figure it out that problem. Even flashing couple of time didn't solve it.

Yes. I forget to mention that. It says "this account is not bound to this device" when I connected with mi unlock tools. For additional information, I used the same MI account for both mobile and mi unlock tools. I also synced successfully and activated find my device on mi web before I connected to the PC.

Fake unlock ??? what is that.? The phone was in Chinese stable rom. Then the seller changed it's rom to global by himself. I don't know anything else. But did you face the same problem like me ?
You need to do:
- Add your device to OEM unlock if need
- Activate Mi Message through Setting - System app - Message

Yes, one of my friend's whyred got fake unlock. It is still locked, but you can't unlock it because the status is unlocked. You must entering EDL mode and flash it. But you need permission from Xiaomi to do it. I don't know if they still open for new permissions.
Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 BRICKED "the system has been destroyed" and I don't know what to do!
Ok so.. I recently got a Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 about 3 weeks ago from a boyfriend that lives in EU area, and I live in the US. <- context. So this Mi Mix 2 (used to) run MIUI 8 Stable, but the bootloader was unlocked so I couldn't receive OTA updates (boyfriend didn't unlock the bootloader so he's clueless). I went to the XDA Discord and was told that I can easily Lock the Bootloader by simply running a command in ADB "powershell" (after installing the 'ADB in 15 seconds') I did so. Well! It was a success and locked the loader...BUT completely bricked my phone to where now it only says "the system has been destroyed", and since the bootloader is locked, I can't flash with MiFlash now.... I've ran just about every version of MiFlash out there, tried MIUI versions from 8 all the way to 10, using Global ROM, China ROM, and EU ROM. Absolutely nothing seems to work... I even tried using MiFlash Unlock and MiSuite PC to try and fix it that way (and yes I did volume UP and power button and tried doing that stuff). But ALAS! nothing works.... is there ANYTHING AT ALL that I haven't tried, I NEED help if anyone knows ANYTHING... I've been trying for 4 hours and this is my absolute breaking point. So I'm asking here if anyone knows.
-> if you do have a solution and want to help in depth (I'm clueless to all this), please message my discord @ WaifuShork#1337 PLEASE...
Really REALLY need help with this...
Here you can find a solution. Next time, use Xiaomi official app to unlock your device.

Hello,
I got my F3 global for a week and a half now, but I am not able to unlock the Bootloader. I enabled OEM unlock just after the phone arrived. I am using Mi unlocking Tool Version 5, but it doesn't show a waiting time any more, just chinese letters, which I don't understand at all. Could somebody help me please?
