I want to root my mi5s plus any help?
unlock bootloader first: google - unlock bootloader xiaomi, follow instructions
flash twrp - download from this thread, enter fastboot mode and flash twrp
transfer supersu to phone, boot to twrp recovery, flash supersu. no wiping required.
reboot and phone is rooted.

after i unlock bootloader and entering into fastboot mode, fastboot cannot identify my phone but adb can. anybody have the same problem?
I had this too... my problem was with old drivers conflicting. Got rid of any old ADB/Fastboot drivers from my system. Downloaded Minimal ADB/Fastboot and all worked fine after that.

Put phone is fastboot mode. Connect using usb. Device manager, theres a android fastboot Device. Deinstall after that, disconnect and connect usb again. Let Windows install Driver auto now. Now it works..
