Good Miuiers Day,
When talking about high-level modding you know that the Xda forum is always among the first forums to look for (obviously after the MiTiKotec blog).
A well-known international forum user has found a system of operations that allows unlocking my 4c bootloader without making the tedious release request procedure for mom Xiaomi.
MiTiKotec's staff has translated and optimized the guide making it accessible to the Italian community, but let's see how to do it:
Required Files:
- ADB installed and working (Trust me they will always serve you in your modder life)
- One Xiaomi MI4c
- MiFlash: http://bigota.d.miui.com/tools/MiPhone20151028.exe (via http://en.miui.com/a-234.html) - Install it on your pc
- Rom Mi4c libra_images_6.1.7_20151221.0000.11_5.1_cn_b09dac7 0a0.tgz - unplug it until the "images" card will be visible!
- [Optional] Mi4c Fastboot Image: miui_MI4c_6.1.21_d1d054460d_5.1.zip
- [Optional] Last TWRP available: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-4…p-3-0-t3315059
- [Optional] Last release of CM 12.1 (if you want to try the CM obviously): http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-4…evice-t3291631
Procedure:
- Restart the phone in fastboot mode (Power + Volume minus) until you see the famous bunny working and the word "FASTBOOT"
fastboot xiaomi - Open a command window in the adb folder and type on the dos window: “fastboot oem edl” (this will bring your phone emergency recovery state) -> the device will show you a blank screen.
- Open MiFlash and flash the rom 6.1.7 (Browse -> select the "images" folder of the 6.1.7 package and start the flash)
- Restart when 6.1.7 is fully installed.
- Restart in fastboot mode (Power + Vol less)
- Open the command window as above and type: "fastboot oem unlock" -> at this point you should have unlocked the bootloader.
- Now my advice is to install TWRP by writing on the command window: “fastboot flash recovery .img ”and, if you want, flash CM 12.1 directly from the new recovery.
You've finished, as the procedure is not so complicated, I would call it a little bored but it allows to get unlock without having to go crazy on the Chinese or English forum.
