    Lister, 08 Nov 2023Why are people unlocking bootloaders on their Xiaomi phones... moreEg. you can't downgrade, reinstall (same version) or even upgrade your official (let alone custom) OS/ROM without unlocking bootloader!
    First they've disabled it in fastboot mode (with MiFlash tool), then in recovery mode, then in OS mode (update section), and now you're left with either stupid OTA update or really hard (almost impossible) way to unlock bootloader (and that's gonna get even worse)!

      anyways Xiaomi's future will be a thing of the past. with this being too strict and been destructing their phone with firmware updates for years including sub-brands: poco and realme! they deserved to vanished! besides huawei recent success of their own processor is a huge leap to be a big thing of next year (new OS). can't wait with huawei with Nokia like hardware!

          Anonymous, 09 Nov 2023how did you fry the motherboardCarefully place the motherboard into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry them in batches if necessary. Fry the motherboard until they are golden brown and crispy, which usually takes about 4-6 minutes, depending on the thickness of the slices.
          Drain and Season:

          Once the motherboard are crispy and golden, use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. While the motherboard are still hot, season them with salt, black pepper powder, and paprika or chili powder if you like it spicy. Toss the potatoes gently to evenly coat them with the seasoning.

Samsung and other brands increasingly use poor chips in midrange phones. Motorola for example uses poor SD695 in G84, same with Sony Xperia 10V. For same price Poco F5 could be had.
