          Yeah, that's very different. Xiaomi devices are a bit of a pain to unlock: they require a specific tool that only runs on Windows, there is a waiting time, and you need to register with your phone number, as far as I know.

          Also owns an Op1, a BQ E4.5 and an Xperia X, as well as a BQ tablet and a Pinetab2. Please, someone... make it stop.

              That is good information for those interested in getting a Xiaomi device. Thanks! :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone:

                @moem it would be nice if there would be a disclaimer on the ubports site for the xiaomi poco x3 nfc

                      @hannescam That is a general Xiaomi thing, and I don't think it's UBports' job to warn for that.

                          I don't know for sure... after all I've never even held a Xiaomi in my hands. But I don't see a reason why not. I think people generally do that.

                              and i i wonder if it would be possible to unlock it without waiting
