So for months now I am owning an POCO F7 Ultra24122RKC7G usually the first thing i do is rooting the shit out of it, but since the last time i rooted a phone is a very long time ago (my previous was the poco f3 which died because of a spicy Pillow in the end) I just learned after I got this one that Xiaomi changed the process to a fuckin raffle of some sort… (See this dam screenshot)

So I forgot about it till today, where google just suddenly started its gemini shit and reminded me “you still got bloatware here!”

So my question is: is there any way To unlock it without this fucked up waiting times which never seems to work even if I got only Exactly at that given time Xiaomi tells us?

      That guide seems broadly correct, based on my experience unlocking an Indian MiUI device. But the exact steps and script vary slightly based on region (EU / India / China) and OS (MiUI vs HyperOS, with HyperOS being much harder to unlock). Guides might have bad English because most are written by Indians and Russians. You’ll have to put up with that. You can find help forums on Telegram, but avoid the scam ones (lots of ad-like posts from a single account, with no replies from other members).
