No Bro... I unlocked mine when I was still on MIUI 8 Global Stable. Just follow the steps meticulously.

First and foremost, we all should understand what it means to unlock your phone's Bootloader.
You lose your phone's warranty. Also, you will lose the "Find Device" feature on your device. Yes, you read right...
So if you can be able to deal with the loss of those 'two', then you can go ahead to unlock your device.

PROCEDURE 1

By now you must have a MI account, if you don't, create one and login on your device.

Activate "locate service", set your region in additional settings and sync it one time in mi cloud.

Login your account on MI forum . YOUR ACCOUNT USERNAME IN YOUR PHONE MUST MATCH THE ONE IN THE MI FORUM.

Grab your PC.

Download and install any VPN on your PC (I always use OPERA or FLYVPN).

Change your location to any (In my case, I used SHANGHAI).

Now go to HERE

Tap UNLOCK NOW.

Apply by giving reasons you need to unlock your phone's Bootloader.

Again, YOUR ACCOUNT USERNAME IN YOUR PHONE MUST MATCH THE ONE IN THE MI FORUM.
Tap on APPLY NOW.

After that, a confirmation SMS with a verification code will be sent to the phone number used in registering your MI account which you must've also typed on the application page.

After typing in the verification code sent to you from Xiaomi via SMS on the application page, you'll get a notification stating that your application was successfully submitted.

Next, you'll have to wait for another confirmation SMS stating that you've been granted PERMISSION to Unlock your phone's Bootloader.

For some, it took less than 5mins. Some 3-5days. But once you get the PERMISSION, you'll have to wait for at least 5days for Xiaomi to update their database before you get to Unlock your device using the MiFlash Unlock Tool.

PROCEDURE 2

By now, you must have received the SMS confirmation from Xiaomi granting to unlock the bootloader.

Enable Developer options. To do so, Go to Settings > About phone, and then tap ‘Build number’ 7 – 8 times for Developers options to appear.

Under Settings → Additional Settings→ Developer option and bind your approved Mi account under Mi Unlock Status.

Also enable OEM UNLOCKING and USB DEBUGGING.

Log into the Mi account which has acquired unlocking permission on your device.

Download the MiFlash Unlock Tool on your PC. (I downloaded Miflash_Unlock-En-2.2.406.5

Now reboot your device in bootloader mode.

Turn off your device, press the Power button and Volume Down (-) button at the same time to enter into bootloader mode.

On your PC with a steady strong network, Open Mi Flash Unlock tool.
Login with the same Mi account you used in your Xiaomi device.

Connect the device with the PC using the USB cable.

Now press the “Unlock” button. It will take 10-15 seconds for the process to complete.

Now you have successfully unlocked your Bootloader.

NOTE:
Do not proceed in a hurry. Read each step carefully.

Copy the rom into the internal memory of your device in a folder you should name downloaded_rom, then go to the updater app, tap the 3 dots on the top right of your screen, choose update package, then scroll down to the folder, 'downloaded_rom ', and tap on the rom. Update will begin automatically, don't stop it till it's completed, takes around 15 mins. Ensure you switch on data during the process.
you are simply the best, thanks so much bro, na airtel night plan go suffer am, make me self enjoy split screen

Actually I did not read the post but I think the girl has no right to beat up her boyfriend in public. Maybe they should report the matter to their village elders but if the neighbour refuse to pay his rent they should just kill the landlord and forget about the missing car. Cc
chai huh
