if the bootloader is unlocked you can install a recovery (OrangeFox or twrp) and flash a custom rom
if the bootloader is locked you have only EDL method

You can try to login at i.mi.com with that account number and set "forgotten password"
If you didn't change email or phone number it is possible to recover it

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..

Note 5A (the device is locked with mi account) (bootloader locked)

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?

Locked without Mi account "This MIUI version can't be installed on your device"

Locked without Mi account "This MIUI version can't be installed on your device"
I accidentally left "clean all and lock" option on Mi Flash while downloading EU rom to my China Redmi Note 8 Pro. When I try to unlock it with Mi Unlock Tool it says add account to your device. But I can't add it because when I turn on the phone it says "This MIUI version can't be installed on your device". Can I fix it somehow by my own?

I think there is no other way except auth account
still no fix
Just found new problems, Just remember this one : who ever success flashing rom redmi note 8 pro and unlock device, don't ever try to sign in or entering mi account in settings, it will automatically lock your device again!! And before you connect any connection go to settings and turn off find my device, after that you'll be free to use the phone without mi account, don't worry you can sign in for Google account.

Question Mi account won't bind on poco f3

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.

Have you tried with a differen MIUI Account?
@Yamin_bableyk
if it is a used one, it may be that it has already been activated. a second time is not possible. Then you have to contact the seller. He must delete it from his xiaomi account.

You mean it's already been unlocked ?
Because it's not, there's no account other than mine in it.

You are using the most recent version which you downloaded from here?
Apply for permissions to unlock Mi devices
en.miui.com
Maybe even try reinstalling the tool! Also make sure not to use any VPN in the background...
have exactly the same issue with my poco F2 Pro right now. tried all different versions of the Mi Unlock Tool. It always just shows this error. Tried on 3 different PCs with different cables. Don't have VPN. Please tell me if you found a solution.
Have not tried a new Mi Account yet.
I fixed it for myself... Don't know which step exactly helped, but I had removed a lot of Xiaomi "bloatware", so what I did was reinstalling all the standard apps with the tool "XiaomiADBFastbootTools" which I had used to remove these apps. Afterwards I flashed the current ROM again with recovery as described here: https://www.bgr.in/how-to/flash-miui-11-recovery-rom-xiaomi-smartphone-android-10-856737/
Then signed out of MI account on the phone, signed in again. Went to developer options and did the request to unlock again. Then it worked right away.
So maybe the problem is that you are missing one of the necessary miui apps on your phone
you can try to use qr code on mi unlock
i had the same error on my f2 pro
hi guys, question does unlocking bootloader will wipe out all the data? and if so. would you recommend a back up software that can literally back up all apps and app data?
I am having same issue. Unknown error 1004. Device Mi 11t pro.

Same here with RN11_SPESN on 13.0.13
And now?
I had the same problem.It is mainly a device or sim verification problem.If you have unknown error 1004 problem you also probably can't sync your phone number with mi cloud.
Solve:"First create a xiomi account using only email address , don't add phone number yet.Then insert a sim card on your phone in slot one whice you will add later.
Log in in that phone using the same account you created using only email address and add account from developer option>>mi unlock status and don't add phone number yet.Then login to your mi account from mi unlock app on your PC.Then they will ask to add a phone number.Add that phone number of slot 1.Then an sms or call with a verification code will be sent on your phone. Verify .And then try to unlock.
It will work 100% insha Allah.

Add phone number from the mi unlock tool app.
Don't add phone number before that.
You have to verify your phone number through mi unlock tool app.
Follow the instructions properly.
