Actually i was using linux for years but had to switch to windows for research analysis software purpose. In that i used to have adb to remove google and other bloatware applications. Though its not permanent atleast they don't run either. Right In the windows too i have installed the adb. If so like you are saying that we can unlock bootloader without xiaomi then it really great thing. But i hope I don't brick my phone in the process, though its old phone i still use to avoid overuse of my current phone.

    I wanted to unlock bootloader in my redmi note 7 pro so that i can boot lineage os. But to unlock it i need to use miui account and xiaomi unlock tool application in pc. So in that process my device should be recognized by the application while its in fastboot but the application doesn't detect it. Yet the laptop detected my phone but not the application did not. That's the problem here. Got it? Just like the xy problem.

    Hi guys, I'm actually facing a little trouble around here, im trying unlock the bootloader of my redmi note 7 pro. But the latest xiaomi unlock tool doesn't recognize it, is there something to do with port. Im using windows for this, the laptop detects the mobile but the xiaomi application won't. Any suggestion or have anyone faced similar issue with any other xiaomi device.

     

    I don't know what running up in the minds of Xiaomi but their decision is killing me. Ever Since their New Mobile & Hyper OS showcase many have tried to migrate to use it, may be too many bootloader unlock request during the time was reason made them think that it would affect the sale of their latest mobile (u know the user experience before even releasing the phone worldwide...) May be that is the reason why they shutdown I guess... Just my Personal opinion.

    But their decision is simply stopping me from moving to Lineage OS. But I suspect they may bring the service back after couple of months after their phone release.
