hi all I gave the mi mix2 to a friend who put his own account thenhe gaveit back to me , I formatted the phone but rightly requires me his account that does not remember there is a method that i could use to bypass it? I have already seen on youtube but nada ? would you give me some advice?
if your friend cannot recover his password i'd say your best option is to try flashing an aosp rom, assuming the phone is already rooted and unlocked

No way to bypass. It's a good security for your data in case your phone gets stolen. The only way is for you reset your mi password via your PC at https://i.mi.com/#homenew
or just full flash a rom clean via miflash. You will lose the content of the phone of course.
and I don't recommend people to share a method to bypass security if they are any due to security reason.

Have you tried retrieving your password from the Mi acc website? Which method did you use to flash? Use this method http://en.miui.com/thread-364323-1-1.html
It should work tho even with a locked bootloader. It worked on mine when I screw up my device.
You can download the FASTBOOT rom for Helium here to flash.

i cant change it cause email for pasword recovery isnt typed, only one way to change password is receive message to tel.number witch didnt exist any more..i will try this method.

It should tho if you flash clean all and lock. It'll be just like out of the box. If it's not possible still since you somehow do not remember the email, just flash to CM13 ROM via TWRP once you have flashed TWRP via mi flash and use non-MIUI ROMs.
flash any stock rom doesnt work...u need a rom with oem unlock..or just stick a usb to ur phone after flash and try access developer options..cant say more..
I've had the phone since March and love it, but when it updated to 8.5.1.0 it lost Root. Since then I have been unable to unlock the bootloader. Xiaomi support has been no help. I have even tried creating a new Mi account and logging of of the phone and then back in with the new account, but no luck. Mi Unlock still will not do it's job.
I get messages that the device is not eligable, the phone and account are not couples and others.
I do have to say that, other than this I do love the device. But, Again, I would like to root it again and have the option of running other ROM or flashing a new one from MIUI forum.
Hello there,
I've searched through all the googles and i can't seem to be able to unlock my mi 5S
Bought a half dead phone, glitchy screen and bad battery. Purchased new parts and had them installed.
Phone came with unlocked BL and lineage OS, but i f-ed it up by flashing a miui rom that locked the BL.
Then I found out the phone was actually bound to an existing MI account, so I cannot unlock it with the official tool.
Phone is in edl mode, i tried searching for an unlocked emmc_appsboot.mbn but no luck.
Can anyone please advise how to unofficialy unlock the bootloader?
I'm about to sell it for parts as I've been trying to fix it for the past week ... :crying:
Not sure if there is a way, because that way could also be used for a stolen device...
My suggestion is that you contact your seller and ask him for his Xiaomi account or that he deletes the phone from his account.
Weird thing though, the phone does not get locked if you just flash an official ROM. You specifically have to choose "flash + lock" in the official flashing application to have it locked again.

I've been emailing with xiaomi support, gave them all the details. Maybe I can convince them to remove the account.
Before flashing i was checking online on how to do it with miflash tool but i missed the radio buttons and default was clean and lock ..
After a few documents submitted through [email protected] they have removed the unknown mi account.
To conclude, I have not found any way of unlocking the bootloader except for the official way.
Also, be careful when flashing with miflash, don't lock your phone by mistake.
Ah great that it worked!
I got a note 5a with the bootloader locked and mi account locked, i tried to hard reset but now he ask me for the mi account wich i don't have, tried to flash with miflash but i need bootloader unlocked wich i don't have too, tried to unlock the bootloader but he told me that i need to add the oem unlock to the mi account, but i can't do that either because i am stuck in the boot menu in the first place.
Alrerady tried the MiAccountUnlock-Tool method, in the program was fine but oncve it boots again he ask me for the mi account
There still hope for me?

Same here. wondering is any way to fix it..
Hello, i have this issue. I have trouble with my phone. It doesn't recognize any simcard anymore. I installed a new sim-tray no solution. I want to try to downgrade the MIUI system or flash a custom ROM to try if this helps, but the bootlocker is locked. I tried to unlock, have a Xiaomi account but can't unlock it. I have to add phone via devlopper tools-->mi unlockstatus but this only works with mobile data and not with wifi. The phone is listed in my Xiaomi account. Is there an other way to unlock the bootloader ??? Or anyone knows a solution ?

You always need mobile data to unlock bootloader in Mi phones.
hey,
if the phone is listed in your xiaomi account it may just work.
you can always try it, grab that miunlock tool and login with your phone number+pass, boot the phone into the android/mibuny page and see if the tools lets you proceed without doing the devtools part.
