Guys pls help, after unlocking my mi max 2 bootloader, I'm not able to turn on oem unlocking again cos it's completely gray, I tried installing TWRP, the command will show that the system recognised my phone in fastboot but when I try flashing TWRP it wouldn't flash, I don't know maybe it's the oem unlocking causing it or there is something I'm not doing right.

Bro, just drag and drop the TWRP in the ADP instead of typing the image name.
Let's see

The Xiaomi thread is a colony in Nairaland. A world on its own. In fact, Nairaland should be renamed Xiaomiland (Osewa would be like ). In this thread, I have observed keenly these 20 types of people.
1.The observers ... Seeing thing but say nothing. Just to read comments is their concern.

2. The Cabal Techs ... The last time someone said cabal, there was fury here. They breath out solutions here.

3. The how much crew ...Always asking how much you bought your device. They have been on this trend for the past 3 months. Uncle, please buy phone.

4. The Testifiers ...Oh... welcome me to the Xiaomi family... Bla bla bla... He is legit

5. The Sellers ... Always quoting and dropping digits. We must sell ooo

6. GSMARENA Believers ... According to the gospel of Redmi note 5 pro... It not the same as Redmi Note 5

7. The CR7 in Aston villa team Crew ... I have a budget of N25000, I need a a Redmi of 5.5 inches screen, 4000mAh battery, 21MP camera, Android 8.1 ...Uncle, na Mi band 3 you dey look for.

8. The ROMers ... Always bragging and excited about how they are porting from Custom OS.

9. The fonters and themers ... Please which font is this? Which theme is that you are using? Just don't screenshot anything for them to see

10. The Confused ... Rooting here, custom recovery here, unlock bootloader... So I can't use Xiaomi unless I do these things?

You said it all

gidieberry:
Home set up...

This is HOME SCREEN RAPE,
IT IS ILLEGAL!!!

Hello everyone,

So my redmi 5 plus through express shipping from noobody came in today via DHL.

I have been on this thread for few months now, reading, following and saving up for my phone. I remember asking the house for a phone that could be gotten in the range of 50-55k, it was really hard to chose redmi 5 plus over redmi s2 because of the camera and the sd card slot. Having read the various reviews because of the bigger screen and other things,i decided not to go for the redmi S2.


My experience was just okay, from the fact that my phone was on "shipping information received" for a whole week (7days exactly) and some other issues sha, the phone finally arrived after 12days and the fact that i now have the phone with me is my only comfort on the experience i had.

I would have wanted to write a whole lot more, infact i typed them but decided to erase them, smiles.

The phone is actually nice, trying to set it up, abit longer than what i am used to (samsung 4.5inch phone) but i am sure i would get used to it as time goes on.

Kindly welcome me officially to the xiaomi family. Below is the redmi 5 plus, global version, black, 3gb/32gb variant.

Good to be here.

I IBAWON officially welcome you. I'm still in search of that Lady who called me

saladel:
O boy you be scam o. So because you change you picture quality to grayscale you dey receive people say you jail break. Don't try it you people! You can't jail break an iPhone, iPhone is the most secured device on this planet for commercial use followed by Google nexus. Apple and Google pay people $10,000 to hack their phones, if they hack it they go and block the loop and come out again with money to say come and hack. Don't believe this guy. He's A SCAM!!!

LOL, Bro you are a learner, it's a different thing to JAILBREAK and a different thing to HACK.
KUDOS TO OP, YOU ARE AN MVP!

daamazing:
mine

LEGIT!

Hello house, I never get my phone oh, but I want to ask, as all what I've been reading here is somehow.

Must you root your xiaomi phone before you enjoy it?
Can one continue to get proper update through OTA without unlocking the bootloader?
Are xiaomi official OTA update not good enough?

Please I need answers. Thanks

No, you don't need to ROOT it before you can enjoy it, but it just makes the experience wider.
With a LOCKED BOOTLOADER you will receive updates till kingdom come and a LOCKED BOOTLOADER even makes your Device extra secure.

EBUBS:
why lazy flasher please

So after rebooting TWRP does not ask you to enter encryption password that doesn't exist

priceaction:
Nice one,I never get updates on my redmi5 plus. I am still on 9.6. is that a redmi 5 plus update screen shot?

It's not like I got an update first. Ok follow this steps
1. Unlock Bootloader
2. Flash TWRP
3. Download MIUI 10 ROM global beta you can find links on XDA
4. Download Lazy flasher
Now backup your data ooo,
Flash the ROM, then flash lazy flasher.
After the ROM is set up you should at least get an update.
But you can't downgrade ROM back to lesser OS ooo.
I hope this screenshot answers your first question,
I don too type hand dey pain me, dem Gptech and co they try

I've been using Airtel 4g for quite some days now, and it quite decent.

lanre316:
Wait. Are you saying MIUI 10 is available for R5P?

Yeske!
Beta Version sha ooo
But I have Neva seen one bug

I used to handle a friend's PIXEL 2 XL then when I flashed Pixel experience ROM and used live wallpapers, he was like, No! This is cheating. But the truth is that after using the ROM for 2 days I got bored and had to flash MIUI back.
The themes Lasan is a no live without option for me.
Mi MIX 2, I'm sighting you oh.
I think MIUI 10 for REDMI 5 plus is coming to stable level gradually.
Have a wonderful weekend my people

WOW, thats one big factory.

donpichie:
Finally! My joy is complete...

Hi, did you flash this through TWRP or it just the APK?
Please I'd need a link.
Thanks

veekid:

Ressurection Remix

Now let's say After Flashing and installing the ROM you then decide to RE flash MIUI, then you received an OTA update how will your device be affected?

Oh! and nice set up you got there.
Patiently waiting for official Linage OS and MIUI 10 for VINCE

Anowax:
Hi guys... Y'all should welcome me to the Xiaomi family. The long wait is over. Omo 3 weeks no be beans. I ordered through Noobody on the 2nd of June. My item got to Onitsha post office on Friday 22nd afternoon from Lagos. Went there only to be told to go to the post office close to my residence because according to them, "your item must get to the closest post office in your address before claiming it" even though they admitted to having my package there and then. So in order words, I should chill and wait until I'm called by my "nearest" post office for my item.

That was how I went through the weekend dreaming of my phone ... Long story short, I was finally called today to come claim my device. They weighed it and said that I was lucky; that I would have paid #500 assuming my package got to a certain weight that I cared less to know. I was just thanking my stars that those people working there aren't members of this group to see the outrageous amounts being bandied here as custom fees. Ended up giving them #200 for r'card and that was it.

My Redmi 5 plus is here with me courtesy of Noobody...

You are highly WELCOME

MasterZee:
Nice! Which of the Xiaomi is this,

Redmi 5 Plus

Once I got this device I was gonna flash Pixel ROM, but I never knew MIUI don cool like this. Oh and the Pixel Live Wallpaper is actually live but makes the home screen lag a bit,but it's something I can live with. Patiently waiting for MIUI 10

Oh! I ordered it on the 5th and they came in today.
Officially back now, at least

And have you ever get to sing about it in any of your music ?only to mistake SOGUNLE as more of a SLUM than AJEGUNLE

pussymoneyweed:
Pls, my parcel got to nigeria yesterday and I try to track it now on ips.nipost.gov.ng, this is what I get.
Unsuccessful item delivery attempt, hope there is no problem?

It means they tried contacting you, but couldn't get through.
CONGRATULATIONS. Your package has landed.
Go to the Post office to claim it.
