To unlock the bootloader, you need to create a Mi account and apply for the bootloader unlock permission. To do this:
Unlocking the bootloader will wipe all your data (factory reset). It voids the warranty (though you can relock it later), and makes your device more vulnerable if not careful. Proceed at your own risk. This guide is for the Redmi Note 10 Pro (Global/India) – model numbers M2101K6I (India) and M2101K6G (Global).
Unlocking the bootloader on a Redmi Note 10 Pro Max requires enabling developer options, binding a Mi Account via mobile data, and using the Mi Unlock Tool on a PC, a process that erases all user data. Recent policies require 30-day account activity and, for HyperOS, a 14-day permission window, often with a 168-hour wait time. For more details, visit Xiaomi Community
