Redmi Note 3 Pro Bootloader Unlock -Unofficial or Official method?
I just got this phone, and while it's great I'd like to get CM 13 installed. If you have the Redmi, you know that it's a bit of a pain to get the boot loader unlocked.
There are two ways, official and unofficial.
The official way, you're waiting about 1 to 2 weeks after applying to get the boot loader unlocked. I have applied, but obviously I am eager to get CM 13 installed.
Now there is an unofficial way to get the boot loader unlocked, but the chances of inadvertently bricking your phone are significantly increased by loading a modified boot loader.
Just wondering if anybody has used the unofficial method to unlock this phone, and do you think that maybe I'm being paranoid by wanting to wait for the official unlock process?
I have a few other questions for those who might know, a user called Umang or something like that posted a modified CM13 which fixes a lot of the bugs with the Redmi, however I guess he stepped on a few toes when he did so and his posts have been deleted, but I was able to snag a copy. Just wondering if anybody has tried his ROM at all?
I know that a few RFD users have went ahead and flashed to CM13, just wondering about your thoughts on the boot loader unlocking methods
Thanks in advance
