error I'm assuming this isn't normal lol. I've tried using the "test", "main", and "1.01" versions of the tool here with the same results.

Canny1913 commented 2 years ago

Nah it is normal. Since it works the same way as the official MiUnlock does.

Wait, so am I missing something then? The next step says "if the code succeeds it will give you a really long string which is the unlock token, put this into a file with a hex editor, name it 'token'."

Canny1913 commented 2 years ago

No you aren't missing anything. When the specified time ends it already unlocks the device for you. Those instructions are for unlocking the device manually if autounlocking doesn't work for some reason.

Ah, okay. I was under the impression that this was code to sneakily get the unlock token while Xiaomi was making you wait to unlock the bootloader. So this repository is for the people who are having problems with the client that Xiaomi provides for consumers then. I got it now. Dang, guess I'll be waiting 9 more days then haha.

Yeah and this is especially for non-Windows users since MiUnlock only works for Windows.

That's true! Very cool tool in that case. Keep up the good work :)
