Nerdy FYI

You don’t have to understand how the stuff behind the tool works. However, you may find it interesting once you knew and how this tool is made possible.

The developer who shares this tool learned the mechanism of MIUI bootloader unlocking process. He explained that the original Mi Flash Unlock tool (for Windows) acts as a bridge between Xioami server, fastboot, and you with your Mi Account credentials. The actual part that conducts the unlocking task is actually fastboot.

The Mi Flash Unlock tool needs to fetch your device information. Next, it sends the information to the Xiaomi server with the account login token. Once received, the server checks whether all requirements are fulfilled. The requirements include whether the account has been authorized, whether the account associated (Mi Account binding) with the device in the Developer Settings and so on.

Once the server feels all the requirements are satisfied, it will reply back with the unlock key for your device instance. This instance key always changes everytime you reboot the phone.

The Mi Flash Unlock tool will then send the key to the device with a custom build of fastboot. Here’s then the magic happens: If the key is correct, the device bootloader will be unlocked. Otherwise, it will reboot.

All such nerdy stuff has encouraged Fransisco to create such a tool. He realizes that if he can replicate the mechanism, there is a possibility to do the mechanism on a Unix-based computer.
