I’ve spent a long time looking for info about trying to circumvent Xiaomi’s locked bootloader on a Redmi tablet.
My son forgot his code and Family Link prevents the tablet from allowing the usual data wipe factory reset. I’ve tried to get support from Xiaomi but all they provide is generic unhelpful guides.
Has anyone found a tool that can override the locked bootloader just to factory wipe it? While it’s not an expensive tablet (£90) it’s fairly new so very annoying from a parent’s point of view.
You can find information in the following forum thread. It’s in Russian so you’ll need a translator, and to download certain files you’ll need an account. However it offers both official and unofficial tools and instructions to bypass certain things to unlock it, might help you.

Thanks. I have already looked at this and tried out some of the links. I couldn’t see a solution - but I’ll take another look. Thank you.
