Redmi 6 not showing up under "devices" in my account, not able to unlock the bootloader

Hi guys! I am trying to unlock my bootloader from my Redmi 6. I've enabled developer mode, USB debugging and the option to unlock the bootloader. When I enter Fastboot and I try to unlock it with the Unlock tool, I am getting the message that I have to add my device to my account under Developer Options -> Mi Unlock Status. I already tried that a million times. When I press the "Add account and device" (after approving the permissions request of course), the button greys out and after a few minutes it will show the message "Request parameter error".
I also checked the devices under my Mi account, but my phone isn't present in Devices section. I am out of options, who can help?
It's running MIUI Global 11.0.4 and Android 9. Hope someone knows what's going wrong. Thanks!

Poco X3 NFC bricked.... Pls help

So, I bought a Poco X3 NFC already bricked for a low price, and some information I can give you from what I tested is:
- The brick happened in an software update
- Bootloader is locked (tried to flash from mi flash and it gives an error of locked state)
- Can't unlock from ADB
- I don't think USB debug was turned ON when the first owner bricked him
- I have access to fastboot mode
- Don't have access to recovery mode
- The first owner didn't had a Mi account on the cellphone, I was able to login with his cellphone number on unlock tool (I'm trying to unlock bootloader) but it gives me an error "Please add you account in MIUI's settings> Developer options > Mi Unlock Status", but as the phone is bricked, I can't do this as well
Is there something I can do to recover this phone? Pls help me!
From what you've explained, it seems like you're completely locked out the system. For Unlock BL you need to already have ADB+Added Account in Developer Options. Since you cannot access it I doubt you will be able to flash using flash tool. It requires unlocked bootloader.
Your only option now is flash ROM in EDL mode. EDL access is given only to Xiaomi technicians at service centers. So you will have to contact them and explain.
Edl mode on the poco X3 nfc
Edl or emergency download mode . Does anyone know how to enter Edl mode on the poco x3?

redmi go in bootloader. any ideas what to boot into it?

yes:
my desktop (cause im in bootloader mode i'll need to use it) is artix linux with kde. sadly i cant install on it adb/fastboot and other drivers due to lack of systemd and empty repos so will do it probably from a random linux-based bootable usb...
my mobile is (as was in title) - xiaomi redmi go - european version.
what means ? my mobile have encryption after removing system what makes me unable to boot things... for the now i can still boot stock ROM. although i wanted to remove all associations with google in system (all google apps, bugs caused by removal etc...)
any ideas what i should do with it? wanna have it to tomorrow cause we use our mobiles at work and my current mobile got "marked as over outdated" by boss so i cant use
why noone ?
This same things happen with me also but You need a USB cable to connect your phone to PC. You need to download ADB and Fastboot Tools to your PC and Extract it First of all, you need to enable the developer option and activate the USB debugging on Xiaomi Redmi Go. Now activate the OEM unlock status on your Xiaomi Redmi Go DinarGuru.com

this i actually know. i have one heavily modded lg so im not a newbie. its more about "encryption unsuccesful" broked roms leading to non-booting state (bootloop) etc... nothing from xda surely doesnt work, yep
surely nothing from : https://forum.xda-developers.com/m/techyminati.8245761/ works. was trying loads of times always bootloop. recovery posible to load but then tends to not make factory reset and lock in "encryption unusccesful", and thats worst... im in europe but have global version btw...
dead chat ?

Help- Mi Unlock Tool not working properly on PC

Hi guys,
I'm trying to unlock my Poco F3's bootloader. I'm doing good on the phone's part (enabling oem unlocking, usb debugging and connecting account and device), but on the PC side, not so much. When I try to use the Mi Unlock tool on my PC, there's 2 types of errors occurring, which depend on the Mi Unlock Tool version I'm using (I've tried several of them just to try to get them to work). The errors are:
1. After I log in to the Mi Unlock Tool, In Chinese text It says this: (attached screenshot)
I translated It, and the result was "You do not appear to be connected to the Internet Please refresh and try connecting to the network Tap to refresh"
2. The second error I am getting on the other version of the Mi unlock tool which is "Couldn't get Info[-1 Unknown error. Try again later". (Screenshot attached)
For context, I am using ADB setup 1.4.3 with the Mi Unlock tool, on Windows 11. I've tried downloading other Mi Unlock tool versions to see If it fixes the problem, but I get the one of the above 2 errors everytime. I've also tried using the XiaomToolsV2 to download any missing drivers, but nothing has changed. Send help pls.
Did you do this?
Spoiler: MiUnlock
Check that the firewall does not block the application, create a rule if necessary.
Put the Miflash folder at the root of the disk, run as administrator.

thank you for replying, meanwhile while I was waiting I thought of giving it a try my bros pc (its newer and has much better processing capabilities). And magically for some reason it turned out pretty smooth, till the phone not connected page. I even got a popup to use the latest version of the unlock tool which I didn't get on my PC.
Now the problem here is that my PC doesn't recognize it. So to fix that I tried XiaomiToolV2 (so it can help the PC identify my device, as I saw ppl doing it on YouTube). though luckily XiaomiToolV2 managed to identify my device, but the problem I'm stuck at is the USB port. Ah, It got fixed after I reset the Pc after downloading the recommended firmware by XiaomiToolV2.
Just figured It out, the main reason for those errors is due to the filtering on my Wi-Fi my bro set up. It most probably was blocking the Mi Unlock Tool from properly communicating with the Internet. Somehow, my brother always uses a VPN (proton to be specific) on his PC at all times. I don't. So the first time I tried to setup the Unlock Tools on his VPNed PC, It went pretty smoothly than It did on my PC. Then I had tor restart it to install XiaomiToolV2 firmware. After I did that, I was getting the same error I was on my PC. Then I re-connected the VPN (as it was disconnected due to restart) and restarted the Mi Unlock Tool, and voila. magik.
Now the problem I'm stuck at is that I have to wait 166 more hours to be able to unlock It, as I connected my Mi account just 2 hours ago. I wasn't aware that the 168 hours timer starts from when I connect my acc, (my dumass thought the timer starts when you first bootup the phone after purchasing ). So there's that..
I was writing this reply while I was in the process, so the sequence you see in the first 2 paragraphs is me trying random stuff one after another. Sorry for the long post, and thank you for commenting/helping.
For people coming to this thread in the future looking for a solution to the same error ("Couldn't get Info[-1 Unknown error. Try again later") try using a VPN, it should fix the problem.
Alright, you solved the problem.
Xiaomi official tool is Mi Unlock not XiaomiToolV2.
Recommended to use a Usb2 port.
Yeah, thanks. I used the XiaomiToolV2 just so I can get the official tool to recognize my phone which It wasn't doing earlier
