They sure make it a lot difficult to unlock bootloader. This is my first locked bootloader phone and its crazy complicated unlike fastboot oem unlock).

Anyway I received the sms and got difficulty binding the phone to my account. After using a tool to change phone to Global Dev, when I thought everything is done....now comes the 72 hours wait.

Just to check, is it a set timer like literally 72 hours or like roughly 2-3 days can unlock?
Yes timer based at 72hours.
I bind my mi5x, now left 30hrs+ lmao

Collected Liao. The size very nice. Can check till you happy there, and make sure you check for defects. I noticed a minor cosmetic defect on mine and they just changed a set straight. Can use *#*#64663#*#* to do some basic diagnostic test. Other than basic things like camera, flash, speaker, etc, can check smaller things like gyro, accelerometer, led light, light sensor, proximity sensor. NFC if you have another Android phone with NFC to do android beam. Chances of it not working I think quite low la. But better safe than later have to go back again. :s13: Good luck guys!

Not sure why for my Redmi Note 4, I can just use the unlock tool and it will unlock immediately, but last time for Mi 5, I need to wait for certain period of time like what you mentioned. Maybe flagship they make it more difficult? :s8:

Read in miui forum, older version of unlock tool has loophole can unlock immediately. Only newer version unlock tool that fixed the loophole support mi 6.

Don't know why they go through so much pain for their cheap phones.

If it's like iPhones, then I can understand, since its several times more expensive than theirs.

The logic given in their official forum, for in case thieves unlock the bootloader and what not, hence the 72 hours; I find it ridiculous.

*Sigh*

Anyone here running custom roms? Looks like its quite different back when I was running Omnirom/Paranoid on Samsung.

Haha. You got a lot of patience. Nomally buy phone I want fast and furious one. Don't want wait. Lol.

For the first unit I checked there is a minor defect at the SIM tray opening. Like a small ding. If you ask me again, I think they return to supplier easier. Haha. Cause if want to resell again they have to paste back all the sticker and film swee swee. Time consuming.

Thank you ! Just ordered also will self collect on Saturday

Haha. Those singlish ones are like once in a while nia. 😂

Will wait for your Singlish review. :D:s13:

I also want to collect fast but now overseas only be back on Saturday. Despite I paid them they still ask me to call again on Friday to confirm the stock, wtf I thought I paid already? What kind of rule is that?

I think you can access the diagnostic test by pressing either miui or kernel version (one is diagnostic, another is developers option, forgot which is which) multiple times.
