  42. I have Poco X3 NFC with 12.0.3 Global firmware. The bootloader is locked. Can I use Mi Flash (2020.3.14.0) to upgrade to 12.0.4 Global firmware even if bootloader is locked? If yes, do I select “clean all” only or “clean all and lock”? I want to use MiFlash so the phone can be cleaned/wiped entirely like brand new. System Updater and Factory Reset doesn’t clean entirely. Thanks.

  44. Hello! My device name is mi 5. it’s a global version. My phone was restarting itself. So, I factory reset my phone & after that the set up screen appeared, But after setting up the language & region, I can’t move on. The phone switched off by itself than again restarts. Thus I got stucked on the set up. I than went to the recovery mode & wiped the data, than selected reboot option. After rebooting the same set up appeared & again it restarts by itself. Can you tell what’s the problem of my phone ? & what’s the solution off this problem ? Note that the bootloader is looked. Is there any way to unlock the bootloader & fastboot stock rom ? Or can I fastboot stock rom without unloacking Bootloader ? Is there any other solution ? I don’t want my data back. I just wanna use my phone to work again. Please give me the possible solution’s for this.
