Guide to Unlocking the HyperOS Bootloader

Xiaomi’s new HyperOS is great, but some people are having trouble unlocking their bootloader. Here’s a simple guide:

Why Errors Happen:

Some users see error messages like “Couldn’t add, apply in the community” or “Couldn’t add Account.” Xiaomi has fixed these problems, so it should be easier now!

What You Need:

  • – Xiaomi Account: You need an account that has been active for at least 30 days. If you just made one, you have to wait 30 days.
  • – Internet: A good internet connection is important.
  • – SIM Card: Your phone needs a SIM card.
  • – Computer: You need a computer with the Mi Unlock tool installed.

Unlocking Your Phone: Step-by-Step

1. Install Xiaomi Community: Get the latest version of the Xiaomi Community app (5.3.31 or newer). If you can’t find it in the Play Store, download it here: [download link].

2. Set Your Region: Open the Xiaomi Community app, go to your profile (“Me”), and select Settings > Change region. Choose “Global.”

3. Find the “Unlock Bootloader” Option: Go back to your profile and look for “Unlock bootloader.” It may take a few seconds to show up. If it doesn’t, close the app and try again.

4. Apply for Unlocking: Tap “Apply for unlocking.” If it says permission is granted until a certain date, you’re good! If it says the quota is reached, try again later (around 7:00 PM often works).

Why the Wait?

The waiting time is to keep your phone safe from being unlocked without your consent.
