There are so many custom ROMs available in the market for users to try. Downloading the files is easy but the problem occurs when we want to install them. To install these ROMs first we need to unlock the bootloader. In some brands like Google Pixel and OnePlus, this part is easy compared to Xiaomi. Back in time to unlock the bootloader in Xiaomi Phones, we were given a proper reason for doing this but now things are changed a little.

Through this article, we would like to guide you through the whole process of unlocking the bootloader.

  • Make sure your device is in proper condition either hardware, software, or body.
  • Install Mi USB drivers and platform tools on your PC.
  • Use an Official MIUI ROM and have a Xiaomi account.
  • Use mobile data using a sim card.
