as forum owner I can confirm the guides work, the files are all valid. If anyone has bricked their phone, well... No comment! there is no reason at all the Redmi Note 3 should brick.
TWRP works flawlessly... You are of course limited to unlocking 2 times per 30 days per Mi account login.
Process is simple... Make sure you are on Stable ROM 7.0.22 firstly then download the DEVELOPER ROM from miui.com which is currently 5.12.24
Flash using update the dev ROM first then visit the unlock download at http://bigota.d.miui.com/miflashunlock/MiFlashUnlock_latest.zip?0.5836578952148557 or http://obigota.d.miui.com/miflashunlock/MiFlashUnlock_latest.zip?0.5836578952148557
Run the tool and select the button on the left, assuming of course you flashed the official DEV ROM first. Then make sure the phone is signed into the Mi account and also the Windows APP is also signed into the same account. Press the button on the next screen and the bootloader will be unlocked within 20 seconds.
From there you can re-enter FASTBOOT mode and flash the TWRP in this thread. The multi language ROM link will be made public on our forums soon for all to download. Ask ingbrzy for the link if you need
Cheers,

I proceed according with instructions. If I reboot in recovery mode appear a phone icon and I cannot do nothing ! This Phone ICON show if the cable is plug in or not.
What can be the problem? My phone is Redmi Note 3 MTK version. Current MIUI version: 8.6.7.7. Beta
Thank you!

You must to install TWRP again. After this install do not reboot the phone normally! First boot must be with Power=VolUp.Hello,
I've followed the tutorial.
I've successfully unlocked my device.
I've flashed TWRP also successfully.
But when I turn on the device with the power button + VolUP I get the black screen with the device and a white cable plugged to it(can't post the link cause i'm new here).
What should I do? I would like to install SuperSU and also the latest eu 7.5 stable rom afterwards.
I'm currently with the latest global developer rom : 6.8.4 (MIUI8).
Thanks for your help.
Hi, just try a reboot of your PC. Maybe your Phone too if this happens.I signed with my main Xiaomi account (with 5 verified Xiaomi devices) but the tool says after 50% that it can't verify the device (red X sign).

Granted access to unlock does not mean you have unlocked bootloader... You must do the procedure to unlock bootloader, and after you Can flash twrp. Your rom 6.8.18 Is china developer, so you can unlock with it without problems,Hello. My Redmi Note 3 MTK is already granted access to unlock. Can I then skip step 1 in Guide and go directly to Flash TWRP Recovery? I currently don't have Developer ROM, but MIUI 8 6.8.18| Beta which has a lot of chinese in it, so I am looking for a ROM where I can use normal keyboard etc.
