      Can you still unlock the bootloader on Xiaomis? It was always a pain, but I’ve read they have completely locked them down now?

        From what I hear you can either 1. Register with Xiaomi and try to unlock it once a month. 2. Slip a service center worker with special access like 100RMB or buy a pre-unlocked one on taobao. 3. Ask said worker to downgrade firmware, then, before they relock it, snatch phone and run out of the store.

        Lol. Which do I use in Vietnam? Serbia? If I’m in Canada and Trump threatens to invade, should I switch to the pixel for a week?
