    Yeah, it needs an xiaomi account with unlocking privileges (I have one from 2018, so this step was already done) and a Windows partition with the xiaomi bootloader unlocker (the official one, updated to the last version), then putting a SIM card into the phone, putting the same account on the phone, going to the bootloader unlocker, checking all the boxes and then just waiting for the time it says on the unlocker to unlock the phone, with the SIM card and not changing the account on the phone.

    I just added a Windows 10 IoT LTSC partition to do that :/, then deleted it afterwards.

      Did you have to try many times before getting it done? I always kept being replied I have to try again because the credits for that day had ended :(

        Credits? I didn’t need any credits, I used this, from the official website. I just checked on the fastboot screen (using this program) once in a while for getting the time to unlock the bootloader.

        Can you explain a little more?
