bootloader unlock process is pure CRAP!!

[taotechad]

I had hopes for this POS phone but may dump it on Swappa. Locked bootloader! Might as well bought a Samsung!!

I got permission to unlock, bound phone via China server. Been 5 days, " unlock" button on unlock tool still is greyed out! Loaded all provided drivers etc. Should have stayed with my Nexus 6p however crappy battery life. Anyone have any suggestions on the bootloader? Thanks in advance

Install Google Fastboot drivers and install them using device manager.

Tried and no go. Did you use VPN on computer as well when using unlock tool?

No. Unlock button stays grey when device isnt detected.

Is this possibly a Miui 9 issue because I've tried just about every driver available?this is really annoying

Woohoo the things we do for root! Finally after 2 days of failing to unlock, I finally decided to reinstall Windows in boot camp. Worked like a charm. All rooted and working gcam mod. Thanks for your help. Not sure why had problems with the drivers but oh well.

How did you finally unlock the bootloader ? With xiaomi unlock tool or with fastboot command ?

Via the unlock tool.

 

[lapocompris]

Via the unlock tool.

Yes, because after the first try, there was a message saying to wait 72 hours and unlock again.
