Question regarding Xiaomi devices - General Questions and Answers

I have a question. If, for example, someone buys a used xiaomi that was previously unlocked but does not know about it, and wanting to unlock the bootloader logs into his account to the phone, do you need the account of the previous owner?

You'll need it if he didn't remove the phone from his account, which would be annoying.
Otherwise you will use your account having linked the phone.

So all you have to do in the smartphone settings is log out of your xiaomi account?

F.A.Q
Q. What if my IMEI is bad or blacklisted?
A. There are a few times of blacklist... T-Mobile seems to block INTERNAL only if non payment. Others will block if non payment or lost/stolen.
This does not effect SIM unlock, I can do it regardless.... However, you WILL NOT GET NETWORK SIGNAL IF BLOCKED
Check here for T-mobile https://www.t-mobile.com/verifyIMEI.aspx and also here for all models http://imei24.com/blacklist_check/
If you are not sure ask first!
Q. Can you change/repair my IMEI?
A. HELL NO. This is not only against XDA Rules but it is illegal in most countries, including mine.
Q. Is this really free?
A. Yes, although I do hope for a donation for my time and effort
Q. When are you available?
A. See below.
Q. Can we get on with it all ready?
A. Yes!

Enable USB debugging
https://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-phone/general/guide-enable-usb-debugging-setup-t2859697
Revoke USB authorization (if applicable)
Developer Settings > Revoke USB authorization
GSM Only
Phone dialer > *#0808# > USB = AP
Phone dialer > *#0808# > USB SETTINGS = DM + ACM/MODMEM + ADB (note, will say ACM or MODEM)
If and only IF the above doesn’t work then try:
Developer Settings > USB Configuration > RNDIS (USB Ethernet)
SPRINT Only
Phone dialer > ##3424# >Qualcomm USB settings > DM + ADB + Modem
If the above asks for MSL or doesn’t work then try:
Developer Settings > USB Configuration > RNDIS (USB Ethernet) then we can get MSL to enable the above if you need MSL
For those that don't know... the 5th to last digit in the firmware is the BOOTLOADER (BL) version. YOU CAN'T GO BACK!!
i.e G920TUVU5EQC2 the BL version is 5 so you can't flash anything less than BL version 5

DO NOT SEND COM PORT. THIS IS USELESS TO ME ALONE
If needed click 'UNLOCK' on the phone's driver so it can be accessed (i.e Samsung_Android OR Gadget_Serial OR MSMxxxx)
Right click on your phone's driver in flexihub(i.e Samsung_Android OR Gadget_Serial OR MSMxxxx) and click send invite.
Type in [email protected] and click OK.
I will connect to the device and proceed from there.
Please watch phone for USB Authorization prompt.
Check the box then press OK.
I will disconnect and reconnect as required (using FlexiHub).
Watch phone Screen for SU (ROOT) prompt and press GRANT.
All you need to do is watch the phone for USB Authorization and ROOT grant.
Please follow the instructions I send via Google Hangouts

Maybe you were just rude. That guy is awesome and he unlocked it for me fast and totally free. Donation is optional but if you think he doesnt deserve any money for what he is doing thats your point of view ,im sure as hell going to donate to him because in Bosnia that service costs about 25 euros.

There is no unlocking box out there that does all devices. Their all specific to certain brands and models.
Either way getting Z3X is a no brainer it's the best one out there for Samsung LG, then you have for more expensive ones for subscription like Sigmabox and Volcanobox etc.

Hello.
The linked Russian thread was closed.
Where can we get an authorized account for free?
Good news!
To everyone with a bricked device, I emailed the global service department and asked them to authorize my account for my bricked Redmi note 5 pro and they replied back saying to wait a bit because it's done by server and my account will be authorized. I will try tonight when I get home to see if it works.
Here is the link, use the one at the bottom where it says global

They reply the same message to everyone. So...
I've got answer from them on 21th August and still nothing. Imagine that server's capabilities, it can't handle bunch of numbers.
Xiaomi is really getting worse day by day.. ?? they should have fix this issue asap but instead they are just sitting and laughing on us and doing nothing... ??Pathetic .. ? I also want to authorize my Mi Account.. any solution.. ?
I also need to have my account authorized. I sent a couple of pm to mods in miui forum but no response so far.
Maybe Xiaomi won't disable the authorization barrier ever, they are greedy and wanna sell new devices...

The phone was link to a previous account you can't do anything legally correct now. If you have unlocked bootloader you can use a custom rom or use ramdon programm to pass the security part but they aren't for free.

[Help] Poco X3 Bootloader Unlock (Indian Variant)

Hello,
I’ve an issue unlocking the POCO X3 Bootloader. Please help if you can.
Below are the device details:
• Model – Xiaomi POCO X3
• MIUI Version – 12.0.2
• Android Version – 10
Below are the things I have done:
• Setup Mi account with my SIM Card option
• Turned on all Sync options available – Notes, Contacts etc
• ‘Find my Device’ is also working
• Mi account is successfully added to the device from Mi Unlock Status page
• OEM Unlocking & USB Debugging, USB Debugging (Security settings), Install via USB.. these options are enabled in Developer settings
• After this on connecting the app to Mi unlock tool, I’m able to sign into the Mi tool, after clicking on unlock, it goes to 99% and then throws this error.. couldn't unlock please add your account in miui settings
• I have also tried factory reset, and I have also tried making another Mi account with another SIM card.. the situation is still the same.
Please advise!
Under developer options there is a section where you need to add you Mi account details. Have you done that?
There isn't an Indian variant for POCO 3 NFC yours is Poco X3, it's another phone.... Sorry

Are you sure you did it? It is 2 options below the OEM unlock option in Developer section. You have to use mobile data only and you have to receive an ”your account is bond to your device” (or something like this) message.

I was waiting for someone to create a thread. I am also facing the same issue while following all the steps and it saying "Added successfully. Mi Account is associated with this device now.".
Mi Unlock Tool throws an error at 99% and complaints the device isn't bound to my Mi Account.
Also, one more interesting thing I have observed is that instead of a device name in Mi Cloud like "Redmi 5", it shows "M2007 J20CI" which is not Poco X3 ?
I have tweeted ( twitter.com/vasanthdevelop/status/1318798136987430913 ) to Poco about allowing us to unlock the bootloader and releasing the kernel sources.
i am also having the same issue device is added sucessfully to mi account over mobile data but mi ulock tool gets stuck at 99% saying bind your mi account to device.

Poco X3 NFC aka surya model number is M2007J20CG. On the other hand the Indiana varient aka karna model number is correctly M2007J20CI. On my international model it also displays my model number instead of device name in MI Cloud so that is not the issue I think.
Try use mi unlock tool mod version or old version.
There is a bug with trying to unlock Karna (indian version)'s bootloader.
A fix is apparently coming, I'd suggest you join the poco x3 official group on Telegram, and you should be able to get updates.

I tried joining a Poco X3 Telegram group where they just made fun that I couldn't unlock the bootloader ? is there another group? Could you give me the link to join the group? ?
This is now resolved I believe
Yes karna bootloader bug seems to be fixed
My karna got instant unlock 2 days back (probably because I tried to bind account almost a month back)

I also still can't unlock it. Did you unlock? I'm on latest 12.0.5.0 and have same error. Is Xiaomi/Poco aware of that problem? Did they respond somehow to it? Somone mentioned any reason? They promised launch day kernel source realase (another story) but what is the use of it bootloader is locked? Pathetic
We should spam this people to make themb do something with that

If you bought the device from your friend just ask him for his Google credentials, and you can easily pass FRP. Afterwards, delete the Google account of your friend and set your own one.
