So for months now I am owning an POCO F7 Ultra24122RKC7G usually the first thing i do is rooting the shit out of it, but since the last time i rooted a phone is a very long time ago (my previous was the poco f3 which died because of a spicy Pillow in the end) I just learned after I got this one that Xiaomi changed the process to a fuckin raffle of some sort… (See this dam screenshot)

So I forgot about it till today, where google just suddenly started its gemini shit and reminded me “you still got bloatware here!”

So my question is: is there any way To unlock it without this fucked up waiting times which never seems to work even if I got only Exactly at that given time Xiaomi tells us?

    Geez this sucks…

    I told myself that thr next phone I buy will either be a fairphone or a dumbphonr… I dont need an expensive phone but unfortunately I need android apps for banking :/
