Link to a PC program (on mediafire.com after some ad pages) named MIKO TOOL V1.0 to "fix software issues" on different cell phones.
I wouldn't dare to try it myself. :confused:

Its not unlocking bootloader , it will unlock ur mi id you have to be in edl mode
So, if I understand you correctly:

1. you register your phone on MIUI site, you get a user identifier
2. you apply for unlocking bootloader, you get a permission, you unlock bootloader with official miui unlocker
3. you enter recovery and install one of the MIUI ROMs from MIUI website, because you want to use MIUI OS
4. but you don't want your phone to be registered to your MIUI account
5. so you start phone in bootloader, connect it to your PC/notebook etc. and you use Miko tools to remove MIUI account???

I don't get it what is the sense of all of this.
Or is there a "secret identifier number" in your Redmi 4x santoni, regardless what OS you use? :)
And this tool I don't know looks dangerous.

Does anyone want to do a test and write a review of what you can do whit this tool?

:)

This "EDL mode" (stands for Qualcomm Emergency Donwload Mode) confuses me. Could someone explain it in details, or give me a link about it?
It was written, you can use it to unharbrick phone, but EDL mode requires bootlader, so I don't get it how could you use it for unhardbricking.
You can enter into EDL mode on a completly dead phone (no recovery nor bootlader works, or phone doesn't turn on) by connecting hardware test points under the cover of phones while it's connected to PC by USB cable.

You need to unlock bootloader or you need to open back cover and use test points, if you want to know test points just search on YouTube how to test point in redmi 4x

U have to write at the OP, this tool used to remove mi account on UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER
Could someone explain me what does "removing MI account" means in practice?
Does it make difference on a custom ROM or it has meaning only on MIUI Android OS?
(btw... my PERSIST partition shows 0 byte size in TWRP backup... tho it might not be true.)
