Since the phone is Android One, you can expect faster updates directly from Google and more development from the community. If you are among those who don’t like Chinese skinned MIUI, then this phone would be the best phone from Xiaomi.

HOW-TO: Unlock Bootloader on OnePlus 8T

Like all other Android One phone, we expect a lot of Custom ROMs, MODs, and themes from XDA Developers. But in order to take the benefits from the developer community, your first step will be unlocking the bootloader. Xiaomi Mi A2 comes with a locked bootloader due to security purpose. You can not root your device or install a custom recovery like TWRP while your bootloader is locked.

Xiaomi Mi A2

With this guide, you will be able to unlock the bootloader on Xiaomi Mi A2 with some easy steps. Read further, we have download links to the required tool that needed for unlocking the phone using the fastboot method.

Benefits of Unlocking Bootloader

I already mentioned some benefits in the above paragraph, but listing here for a quick view:

  1. Once you unlock the bootloader, you will be able to replace your stock recovery with a custom build recovery.
  2. You can try out some of the coolest ROM out there in the XDA developer.
  3. You can root your phone using Magisk or SuperSU.
  4. Modify your phone in the way you want.
  5. Remove bloatware that comes with the stock ROM.
  6. You can tweak the system and kernel for better performance.
  7. Use Xposed Modules like Amplifier to increase battery life.
  8. And many more features to explore.

Actually, Bootloader Unlocking is the window of a power user. You will get a better option to control your Android smartphone in an advanced way.

But keep in mind, unlocking bootloader for the first time will factory reset your phone. Everything will be erased, including internal storage data. So, for a safe side, please do backup your important data, and copy it to your computer. You can restore them later, once the tutorial is completed. We have a list of Application that may help you to backup:

    Mine won’t get unlocked. It fails at 99%, and tells me to wait several days ( different amount of days every time). I checked OEM unlock and USB debugging. My MI account is synced with my device, I have done the locate device thing, no luck so far.
