Hello, Can I borrow your Mi Account for unbrick my device ?
Because my account still unauthorized. I've been waiting for a week but still unauthorized ?
The permission for unbricking only works once on one device!
So sharing account won't work, because anyone who got permission, has already used it.
Accounts who sought permission have been granted, see thread below.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...tutorial-unbrick-redmi-note-5-whyred-t3816260
Unbrick? you are unable to reflash using Mi Flash tool? It works even over locked bootloader
___
Ignor me, didnt know about the anti rollback thing

Hi,all and thanks to read this help request.
I bought a Xiaomi Mi Max 3Gb and 32Gb internal memory from Gearbest, after a few days the device arrived.
And when i turned it on,surprise surprise... the Mi Max arrived with a Miui Account in it.
I 'm able to see the pictures,calls,messages,and is miui account on the smartphone, i don't think that the phone was used,it doesn't any evidence of use,or any thing else.
It apears that they tested the device,and forget to log out and remove the Mi Max from that Account.
I tryed a factory reset,but it ask's me for a password that i don't have, of course.
I talked to Gearbest, that they are taking to long to decide what to do, but even if they say, that i have to sent it back the shipping cost will be high to sent it from Europe to China.
I haven't check yet if the bootloader is unlocked, by adb commands, but i wasn't able to enter in to recovery (pwr+up) it just shows a image of a phone asking to plug it to usb.
And (pwr+down) goes into Fastboot, i have been reading in xda foruns,miui,and in a Spanish fóruns about this and a solution to it.
I know that is difficult to erase the Account, is hard to remove the decide from the Account,and that even that one solution could be downgrade the miui version,enter with a new Account and after upgrade it to miui 8, i have to say that the Max is a Chinese version with multilanguage.
Other solution is if bootloader is unlocked, try to flash twrp, and place a CM13 rom and most probably will not have problem with the miui account.
But how to do it??
And can i in edl mode flash a developer rom even with the bootloader locked, and remove everything so the Chinese guy Account release the Max?
Can someone point me in the right Direction,and if possible to we're i can found a tutorial?
Thanks you
hey buddy u should post ur questions in the q&a forum
anyways

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.
i tried to flash rom with mi flash but it wont help anyway. from miui 7 installed to miui 8 and just turn it on i get message that is associated with existing account and asking for password, **** i paid for it 300 dollars after one month i can only throw it in trash box..also i was tried to send photos( proofs that its my phone it isnt stolen or something) to xiaomi suport but they wont help.S o sad.

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.
http://en.miui.com/thread-402363-1-1.html
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.
also u gave me fastboot rom for mi max prime,its same like main mi max 128gb?

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..
Hi all,
I am having very peculiar issues for which I need your help. I want to unlock boot loader of my phone. When i bought the device i was on 9.2.7 and updated to 9.5.6.0 (OEIMIFA).
The issues I am facing are :-
1) 86006 error for binding.
2) Tried to sync my phone with mi cloud and find device (as an alternate solution) but the website is not able to find my device. I have given all the permissions to all the mi apps but even then the my phone is not "connected" - it just shows "just a sec" on the website. Surprisingly sync works and has backed up my contacts and sms.
After going through all the mi forum and the xda forums, i think its update which has screwed up with the mi cloud or I have missed something in between.
Please let me know if something can be done as I am fed up with the camera focus issues in 9.5.6.0.
I have searched all threads and forums and no one had similar issues, even then if there exists other thread then mods please merge it with that one.
Thanks,
VK

Bro, just try unlocking your bootloader directly though mi unlock tool without binding account or anything, it will get unlocked as happened for various users.
Also dont forget to enable oem unlocking and usb debugging settings in developers section.

Thank you for your reply bro, I have already tried it and it does not work for me. In the MI unlock tool it gives error message and instructs to bind the account.

Did you tried to unlock with an older Mi Unlock Tool version ?
Try with this version https://www27.zippyshare.com/v/XbiIkf2j/file.html and see if it works

Hey guys I'm in big trouble
Short story I tried to update to MIUI 12 and ended up with only bootloader working, I followed this guide getdroidtips.com/guide-flash-miui-rom-xiaomi-devices/#How_to_Flash_Xiaomi_Firmware_using_Fastboot to flash the stock rom but I installed Global instead of Chinese (My phone is chinese), when I boot it says that "this miui version cant be installed on this device, looks like my bootloader have been locked again.
I tried flashing the correct rom with mi flash tool but no success
If anyone has any idea of what I need to do please tell me I absolutely dont know what to do :/
Thanks in advance
You should try to unlock the bootloader again.Remember, you can only re-open with the account you first opened.

Thanks for your response!
I tried unlocking it again but it tells me that I need to add my account in the MIUI settings which of course I can't do.
My phone came with an already unlocked bootloader when I bought it because it's a chinese version with global rom.
Do you think the account needed to re unlock the bootloader could be the one the seller used to unlock it the first time ?

possibly opened with the seller's account,if the seller cannot unlock, the only method is EDL,authorized account is required for this and the back cover needs to be removed.

Ok, I'll see with the seller then.
There's something I don't understand with EDL, what step needs an authorized account?
If I open my phone, short-circuit the pin to enter EDL mode then flash the fastboot rom via Mi Flash Tool will I be just asked to login at some point ?
I tried to connect to account_auth.exe and I get the message "This computer is bound to your PC, you can start now". Does this mean that my account is authorized ?
The differents guides explaining how to check if an account is authorized never show this and I'm not getting that red error message so that's weird

you are getting this error because your account is not authorized.xiaomi services have this account if you find a completely informal service maybe they will help or a quality not offical phone service.The repairers who think that they will repair the device can make the device brick.You should be careful and finally,you can take a look at it, maybe it will work.

Thanks for the advice, I'll look into that
Quick update in case someone is going through the same problem and need some help:
I contacted this guy on whatsapp +7 967 777-15-98, cost me 29usd and the guy had to try like 3 times over team viewer until it worked but in the end it did.
So yeah basically for now the only solution seems to be paying random dudes in Ukraine :/
Let's hope Xiaomi change their policy or someone find a bypass to this EDL authorization bullsh*t

Do you recommend this boy ?, I contacted him yesterday but for not wanting to pay 4 extra dollars I decided to go with another one but he doesn't give me an answer

Yeah it's quite expensive but I can confirm it works, he's the only one I can recommend as he's the only one I paid
If you found a cheaper one it might be worth waiting a bit for him to respond, be sure to Google his phone number to be sure it's not a scam tho
As the title said I can't seem to bind it to the phone. I want to unlock the bootloader. Resetting doesn't work, logging in on another account doesn't work. Then resetting again does not work. I'm at the end of my knowledge and was hoping for some help here.

Did u follow the correct procedure to prepare ur phone for unlocking ur bootloader? Like is described in here: https://c.mi.com/thread-1635834-1-1.html
Same happened with me. You have to logout from your mi account and re login. This solved my problem.

Just reset my Mi account password yesterday in preparation for bootloader unlocking.
I've not unlocked any Xiaomi device (my Mi Pad 4 came unlocked) with my Mi account, although I have used the account on my Mi Pad 4 for almost 3 years now.
