Can't unlock and can't read error message as its not in English! - Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers

I get a error that is like 621**** and a few other digits and the rest I'm assuming is in Chinese.
History is I added phone to mi account almost a month ago, 10 and a half days ago I tried unlocking and got same error, tried again today and got same error but due to the language barrier I can't understand.
I get the utility from official source and have installed driver it gets to 99% each time.
I'm assuming its asking me to wait longer but I don't know how.
Steps leading up to this, went into dev settings oem and usb settings clicked, find my device enabled add account via data done.
I did notice that up until today when I added account again after it didn't work it didn't show mobile number.

I can't speak Chinese so will put a badly translated message up from online translation, hope someone can help as a futher 14 days have now passed and I still can't unlock it says "the phone has been numbered 629911 by looking for the phone lock, can not unlock it"
No idea what that means

[Solved]FRP Android MM

Hi there,
Here's the thing, After updating to MM my phone started with issues like no working home button, no status bar... etc.
So decided to make a factory reset using fastboot, but when google account verification came up I realized i didn't remember my google account pass, so i touched the "change pass" button and changed it using the phone.
But then, when trying to log in, an android alert came up telling something like,
"You should sign in with an actual phone owner's account"
Could you give a solution for this?
Do i have to wait 24hs as some sites say or the only way to access my phone now is flashing the whole ROM again?
I've got bootloader locked and is obviously not rooted.
Please Help me!!
Regards.

Edit: Seems there's no fu*** option rather than "cool-down" wait. (Not clearly whether is 24 or 72 hours)
Thanks google indeed, not implementing apple kinda things was clearly why i did preferred your devices & s/w instead of theirs.
Edit2: Lock out is of 24 hours right now!

Strangest of situations about Bootloader

So i have been battling to unlock my bootloader since i got the my phone(end of august). I have not been successful at all and i cannot figure at a solution. I have emailed emuifans and [email protected] to send me my bootloader code to no avail(mailed them about a month ago). So i decided to try and connect 14 straight days just in case this works. I downloaded the chinese APK HiApp and logged in 17 days in a row. I am still faceing the 14 days id wall. So i came here in search of help cause if i expected anything from Huawei i would be a goner by now. So:
1)Is this the correct way to get the bootloader code or i was hitting my head to the wall all this time?
2)Is there a Update i could do so i can get to an unlocked bootloader state?
3)Once you unlock the bootloader and you change firmware is there a possibility that it will get locked again through an update(without you explicitly locking it)?
So far my experience tinkering with this huawei hasn't been the greatest while my previous(p6 and U8800) has been phenomenal. I have a Dual sim DL00

Went, logged in,pressed bootloader, filled the phone details AND it still asks me to wait 14 days. If you see the attachment on my first post you will notice its the website and says it needs the id to be logged for more than 14 days.
Ok....for me it happened straight away...I registered via the PC and it was instant. Your other option is to use HCU Client app and pay 4 credits and you will get it straight away.
Mate....if you have no luck, If you send me (PRIVATE MESSAGE) all the info required ( view the image from the link I shared in Original response to fine what info is needed) I can enter the details via my account and send you the unlock code. I have used my account to unlock two different imei codes and I don't think there are any limitations to howmany I can run through my account....some one else may have an opinion on this however?
Any way just an offer, you may feel nervous about sending on your private phone details to total stranger, I would....totally up to you, I certainly would delete and make sure they were never made public ...offer is there.

Im considering using the DC unlocker option since i can get nowhere with huawei but im afraid if the phone will relock if i flash a Huawei rom again. Thus my 3rd question in the original thread.
I used Dc.unlocker with the app from same author. Its a bit less expensive. Once you get the code, its for life. Write it somewhere.to not loose it, or keep the mail receved.

Found Mate 9 can I unlock it?

Hello guys, I'll begin by saying that I'm not english so if i make mistakes u have to forgive me. Yesterday, a friend of mine came to me by saying that he "found" a phone, which actually is a Huawei Mate 9 MHA-L29.
Now, he told me that he tried to return the phone to the police but it didn't have any SIM card in it and they just told him to keep it because they couldn't do anything. I was actually searching a good and cheap phone to buy and he told me that he can sell it to me at a nice price if i manage to unlock it, now the problems start. So when i turn it on, it hasn't any wallpaper and it wants the unlock Pin, which obviously is unknown.
Something like this happened to me a month ago with a P8 Lite which i factory resetted even if it had a pin and everything went fine.
With this phone tho, if i go to eRecovery (both buttons and start button) and press "Download lastest version and recovery" it makes me choose a wifi and then gives me "getting package info failed".
If i try Vol Down and start button, it takes me to the EMUI update i guess (I'm kinda new to these things so please understand my ignorance.) and tells me "System install failed".
Also tried to link it via USB to my PC and tried Recovery from HiSuite but i guess since the device is in "only charge" and i don't have the pin to change that, it doesn't work either.
Do you guys think is it possible to unlock it someway? I would really appreciate your help.
It could be the original owner who had lost the phone had contacted Huawei and had them disable phone, (making it useless).
debugging seems to be not enabled
password isn’t known
pin isn’t known
factory reset without removing pin/password before will not be successful!!!
as i know, this phone is fully useless for you.
BTW: bad for you, but good for all the people which have lost her phone.
If you would have the original box and bill, the HUAWEI service center can help.
Without this, you will get no help!
and at last...
How often do you think, people have "lost" her phone without sim card installed into it? Not often i think!!!
If it has the original software and recovery on it, chances are that FRP lock is still enabled so unfortunately, it's worth nothing. Maybe you guys can post it on some public ad sites and the owner will be found and give a reward.

Unlocking Bootloader

Looking for a little clarity on the bootloader unlocking procedure -- maybe I'm getting old, because I'm a bit lost.
No, not maybe -- I'm definitely getting old...
I've just received my Mi Mix 3 with MIUI Global, updated to 10.2 Stable OTA this afternoon, and my SIM card is inserted and working.
I have a Xiaomi account -- set it up when I got some of their Yeelight light strips a year or so ago -- and I can log in to the account at https://account.xiaomi.com. I've gone through the initial setup on the Mi Mix 3, adding the Mi account on the phone, and it shows I'm successfully logged in. I've enabled developer options, and in the developer options settings I've enabled both USB debugging and OEM unlocking. When I go into Settings -> Developer Options -> Mi Unlock Status, I'm prompted to agree to the necessary permissions for Mi Unlock to access my account, and I agree. The page then shows "This device is locked/The phone is secured" with a blurb about why the device should remain locked, then the steps to take to unlock the device if you understand and accept the risks. The steps it displays are:
1. Insert SIM card -- done
2. Turn off WiFi and use mobile data -- done
3. Tap "Add account" button to associate Mi account with this device -- done, with a success notification
4. Download unlock tool from website -- and here it gets iffy...
I go to http://en.miui.com/unlock, and click the Unlock button, then download the Mi Unlock Tool. I unzip into an empty directory, and run the miflash_unlock.exe as Administrator. In the app, I agree to the disclaimer, and enter my account details, then watch the spinner while the app checks to see if my Mi account has permissions. After a few seconds, I receive the error:
Account application area query failed
This repeats indefinitely if I accept the application's offer to "Try Again".
Does anyone know what this means? Does it mean my request to unlock has been denied? Maybe I'm stuck in the 72 hour waiting period I've heard about (though nothing on my phone, on the website, or in the unlock application indicates anything about a 72 hour wait)? Or is the app unable, for some undisclosed reason, to access my Mi account information? I'm a little stumped, here.
Looks like _maybe_ I've figured it out... Downloaded an older version of the unlock utility (v3.3.525.23). Gets me past the "Account application area query failed" error. Now, when trying to unlock, I'm getting this:
Couldn't unlock
After 71 hours of trying to unlock the device
Which I'm interpreting as meaning I just have to wait the 3 days.

Yes, sounds like you have it working, its just a waiting game now.

mi unlock tool keeps resetting my hours

TLDR; is there a way to bypass the mi unlock tool, cuz it ain't working for me. timer keeps getting reset. and no matter what i do, it keeps happening. also xiaomi support is absolutely useless
so i received my k20 pro about a month or more ago with the intention of putting on a custom rom.
from what i can tell, i've done everything right. i initially had 360 hours to unlock according to the tool. opened it again the next day to make sure the counter was going down. and it was fine.
but then i went back about a week later, and the countdown was at 380!!
did some digging and fiddling seems like perhaps i reset the account on the phone somehow or maybe the update to miui 11 reset it, i dunno, it certainly was NOT intentionally signed out.
so i made sure to do everything proper (which btw might be impossible bcuz all the guides are either broken chinese/english translations, or the ui/menus have changed, links to the english forums go nowhere): removed/re-enabled the mi account on the phone. dev mode. pair the account to the mi unlock status
380 hours.... check the next day.... looks good
that was about 6 days ago. so i went to double check the countdown again today.... back to 380!?!?!?!?
what the hell is going on? something reset again? now i legit cant even find the developer options menu. and the mi account thing. something reset developer mode. just had to go reactivate it
is there anyway to just bypass all this crap and unlock the bootloader, or something i am doing to cause this reset??? do i just have to leave the phone on the fastboot screen for 380 hours or something?
its been weeks with miui and i really want it gone, i dont want to start another 380 countdown to just go back a week later and have it reset
plz help, thanks

that was a post i made on reddit a few weeks ago. i've since had a timer in my calendar, to wait the allotted time. only to see the timer reset TWICE. it's about a total of 4 times that this timer reset has happened to me.
i have contacted xiaomi "support" during all these resets and they all send me some boiler plate message along the lines of:
"I would request you to follow the timer/ waiting period shown in Mi Unlock Tool to unlock successfully, you'll see this sentence "Couldn't unlock the device after XXXX hours" which means "Please unlock after XXX hours." There is some translation issue in Mi Unlock Tool. Also would like to inform you that after you've successfully bound your Mi Account, do not log out the approved Mi account from your phone. Otherwise, the timer will be reset and you gotta spend more time waiting again."
i've literally begged them to put me into contact with someone who can actually help. my last message literally said plz don't respond with a canned answer, and guess what, i got the same canned answer, yay.
