I have a Redmi Note 3 (INDIAN VARIANT Kenzo/Snapdragon variant running on Marshmellow 6.0.1 with MIUI Global 10.2) on which I performed an bootloader unlocking procedure via the tool XiaoMiTool V2 from [xda](https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/tool-miunlocktool-unlock-bootloader-t3782444) since the official method kept denying me for some reason I also want to let you know that during the procedure i left the *oem unlocking option disabled* and ran the tool So after the device's bootloader was unlocked (ss attached)enter image description here enter image description here I noticed that the OEM unlocking option was still active (meaning I can flip the button and it will just ask for the pass and warn me and enable the option: again ss attached) enter image description here enter image description here **So my question is is my device properly unlocked? OR Did I mess up with procedure ?** I know i could dial
*#*#7378423#*#*
*(which doesn't work in miui devices)* or using *fastboot method* [mentioned here](https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/73567/how-to-check-if-your-bootloader-is-unlocked)- *but the problem is that my device's usb port is damaged in a way that charging works but MTP or any other option doesn't (Yeah I tried multiple usb cables, brought a brand new from official store and multiple devices)* or is there any app to do that ? **EDIT :** Okay now I tried by adjusting the chord into the port and running
getvar unlocked
(ss attached) enter image description here Now what does this mean ? Is it still locked ? I would really thankful if someone can help
