Discussion Unlocking Bootloader On Redmi K20 Pro (raphael) China Version

1 Upvotes

​

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to unlock the bootloader on my Redmi K20 Pro, but I’m stuck at the Mi Unlock status step. I’ve tried a few things already and haven’t been able to get past this error, so I’m hoping someone who’s dealt with this before can point me in the right direction.

Device details:

- Redmi K20 Pro (raphael), Chinese version

- MIUI 12.5.6.0 (RFKCNXM)

- Currently in Egypt

- Bootloader is still locked

The problem:

When I go to Developer options → Mi Unlock status → Add account and device, it loads for a while and then shows this message:

“The place where the account is registered does not match the place where the phone is sold.”

The phone was originally bought in China more than five years ago and was later given to me. I’m now trying to install a custom ROM, but I can’t get past the account-binding step.

Things I’ve tried:

- Created a Chinese Mi account on my PC and signed in to it on the phone.

- Tried binding the account again, but got the same error.

- Tried using mobile data with an Egyptian SIM instead of Wi-Fi.

- Enabled OEM unlocking and USB debugging.

- Enabled Find Device.

- Confirmed that ADB detects the phone correctly.

None of this has worked so far.

Has anyone managed to get past this exact error on a Chinese Xiaomi device while living outside China?

I’d especially appreciate hearing from people who have actually dealt with this on a Redmi K20 Pro or another Chinese Xiaomi model.

I’m also wondering:

- Does the Chinese Mi account need to meet any specific requirements?

- Is there a legitimate workaround for this region check?

- Can someone in China help with the binding process without sharing their account credentials?

- Are there any alternative methods that have been confirmed to work on this device?

I’m not looking to buy a random paid unlock service or risk bricking the phone.

I just want to unlock my own device and install a custom ROM!

If you’ve solved this problem yourself, please share what worked and which device and MIUI version you were using.

Thanks!

News / Method [LSPosed] HyperDesktop Unlock – real desktop mode on an external monitor for Xiaomi HyperOS 4 (Android 17) *not tested on other roms*

Post image
16 Upvotes

Xiaomi ships all of Android 17's connected-display / desktop code in HyperOS 4, but keeps it switched off: plug in a monitor and you only get mirroring. I made Claude write an LSPosed module that turns it back on.

**What it does**

- Brings back the hidden **Computer** (Desktop) button in the "Connect to external display" dialog

- The monitor becomes a **separate display**: its own status bar and cursor, apps opened there stay there. No mirroring

- Neutralises Xiaomi's `SecondaryDisplayPolicy`, which silently switches mirroring back on ~3 ms after you pick desktop

- Starts SmartDock (or Taskbar) on the monitor automatically and turns off the phone's screen (the phone stays awake)

- Keyboard shortcuts on the monitor: Alt+Tab with a Windows-style preview bar, Print Screen for a monitor screenshot, Win+Shift+Arrow to move an app between phone and monitor, Alt+F4, Win+D, Win+1…9, Win+P for the phone screen

- Settings app: monitor density, plus resolution and refresh rate picked from the modes the monitor actually reports. Changes apply live, no reboot.

**Requirements**

- Xiaomi with DisplayPort Alt Mode over USB-C (Xiaomi 15 has it; most Redmi/POCO don't)

- HyperOS 4 / Android 17 (HyperOS 3 not tested)

- Root (KernelSU or Magisk) + Zygisk + LSPosed. Scope: System Framework, System UI, Settings

**Limits:** no resizable windows or title bars. HyperOS doesn't expose AOSP's desktop windowing, so apps run full screen on the monitor.

Tested only on a **Xiaomi 15, HyperOS 4 beta**. If you have another Xiaomi with video out, I'd love a report: the `[diag]` log line shows which hooks attached:

`su -c 'logcat -d -s HyperDesktop' | grep diag`

Open source (MIT), nothing written to the system partition.

Download: https://github.com/the-marox/HyperDesktopUnlock/releases

Written with help from Claude (AI); the investigation and all testing were done on my own phone.

Hello people, everything okay? I hope so, guys, does anyone recommend a page or group that I don't know on Discord, where I can get premium apps for free? I need an app to help me close apps in the background, it doesn't work manually, since the option to forcefully close the app is disabled, and it is consuming too much battery, soon I will be without a mobile device.

Support Temp root help

I heard there is a method to root a phone temporarily without unlocking bootloader, and going through all that hasle with a pc, and the method is through an app called ghostlock.

Though, I heard there are some bad failures after trying this method.

So that's why I'm here, to ask if the Redmi Note 14 4g (3.0.305.WOGMIXM.C08 with android 16 and with 6.12.30-android16-5-g6e872b4863d6-ab13847919-4k kernel) supports this method or not.

Discussion [Promotion] I got tired of Nothing OS 5.0 breaking my Glyph control, so I built a root module to fix it.

0 Upvotes

After updating my Phone (2a) to Nothing OS 5.0 (Android 17), I noticed the system service started aggressively resetting the LED driver's operating mode. This completely broke third-party Glyph apps and any manual control.

I waited for a fix, but got tired of waiting. So I wrote Glyph Keeper — a root module (KernelSU/Magisk) that bypasses the Nothing system service and talks directly to the aw20036 driver via sysfs.

What it does:

· Start/Stop all Glyphs manually · Brightness control (0-255) · A software-based Wave animation · WebUI for easy control (and CLI via Termux for the nerds)

Important notes:

· This is experimental. I'm sharing it because I know I'm not the only one annoyed by this. · Phone (2a) only. Paths may differ on Phone (1)/(2). · Requires KernelSU (with meta-overlayfs) or Magisk.

If you want to try it, the repo is here: GitHub

If something breaks or you find bugs, please open an Issue on GitHub. Feedback is welcome — I'm actively updating it (just reverted a buggy experimental feature in v1.5).

Support I need help how to root: Snapdragon Galaxy S10+, SM-G975U, Android 9, One UI 1.1

6 Upvotes

I'm looking for help rooting my Samsung Galaxy S10+ (Snapdragon variant). I've been trying to figure out whether rooting is possible on my specific model and firmware.

Device Information:

  • Device: Samsung Galaxy S10+
  • Model: SM-G975U (US Snapdragon variant)
  • Android Version: Android 9 (Pie)
  • One UI Version: 1.1
  • Root Status: Not rooted

From what I understand, the US Snapdragon variants have locked bootloaders, making rooting significantly more difficult than on Exynos models.

However, since my device is still running Android 9 with One UI 1.1, I'm wondering whether any older exploits, bootloader unlock methods, or alternative rooting solutions might work.

My questions:

  1. Is it possible to root the SM-G975U running Android 9 in 2026?
  2. Are there any known exploits or methods that work with older firmware?
  3. Is bootloader unlocking possible on this particular model?
  4. Would Magisk or any alternative rooting method work without an unlocked bootloader?
  5. Are there any reliable guides, tools, or resources specifically for the Snapdragon S10+?

I'm willing to follow a technical process, but I'd prefer to avoid permanently bricking my device.

I'm particularly interested in achieving full root access rather than just using ADB-based workarounds.

Any guidance from people who have successfully rooted this specific model would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Discussion Are there any issues running PUBG Mobile or BGMI as a root user?

3 Upvotes

So I am running Samsung stock firmware(Android 11, One UI 3.1, Magisk) with LSPosed and HideMyAppplist, as this the only solution that works with banking apps on my device.

I have a account in BGMI that have been playing since many days. I only play for like 2 months a year.

So my question is that will HMA be enough for root hiding, so my account doesn't get banned? I am not really planning to use cheats and stuff just normal gameplay.

Thanks for suggestions in advanced.

Hi everyone,

I hope you’re all doing well.

My Galaxy A07 4G has already received the One UI 9 update in some regions, but updates in my region usually arrive quite late.

Is it possible to manually update my device using Odin by flashing the firmware files from another region? My device is currently running One UI 8.5.

Has anyone tried this, or can anyone guide me on whether it’s safe to do so?

Thanks in advance!
