I can't access to the system to activate the option for developers mode, so do you have any solution to fix it?

[imehequere]

I basically had to do all the research to root my last phone. Thanks for the informative video, you have done all the heavy lifting. You make it seem so easy. I will be glad if you could do a bullet point of the steps.
Looking forward to more videos about custom Roms for Poco F3. Furthermore, i am thinking of getting this Phone.

I get error please add account in MIUI settings in Mi Unlock tool no matter what version I use. I already added my account too many times but it won't detect it. Will creating new account with same phone number help remove this problem

How come with Xiaomi you have to have this special Windows tool thing and waiting for 5 days ceremony? With Pixel phones, you can just go ahead and unlock right?

If I unlock my mi like you done on my Poco f3. Would it allow me to downgrade from Android 12 to 11.

i coud not receive a text message for verification code.tried swapping a phone number still no luck, any fix for this?

[Rizwaan]

For me the unlock tool says I need to pair/register my miui account (it tells me to go to dev options and unlock account)😊 but even when I do this it still says the same thing. Any idea why it does this?

Do I need to sign out of my Google account before I unlock?

[moony]

with in that 168 hours, you can not use your phone?

[fritzymon]

is it okay to use phone while waiting 140 hours?

[paintingtutorialsddprodu]

The process is so frustrating and stupid! I have never had a wifi at home. I have 5g network and I do not need it. I have no other device to make a hotspot. For that I am unable to unlock my own device. sometimes when I encouter some stupid stuff such as poor updates quality which usually worsen the device battery I doubt that I have made a good choice to buy poco f3, some midrange samsung device might render the life much easier
