Associate unlocked Mi5 with new Mi account and remove old Mi account? - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

I'm going to buy an used Mi5 from my friend but the phone is unlocked with his Mi account and twrp installed.
How can we completely dissociate this phone with his account and associate it with my own Mi account for future works with it (relock/unlock, etc...)?
If anything related to his account I can ask him to do it.
Is deleting the device in i.mi.com works?
Thanks for your attention and sorry for my bad English

Indeed remove the link from the mi.com account via the site.
Also (before that probably) remove the link from the phone itself, so go to developers options and logout on the phone itself.
After these 2 things, you should try to request an account permission for your account, BUT WAIT AT LEAST 24 HOURS BEFORE DOING SO!
Some people have even to wait longer before a phone is getting recognized as removed from other account.

Thanks

P 30 Pro Firmware VOG-AL10

Hello,
I'm currently in China but from Canada, and picked up the P 30 Pro (love it!) while here.
I've been reading I can update the firmware to get Google on swipe left instead of HiBoard.
The model says it's a VOG-AL10 on the settings page. Is it possible to use the VOG-L29 or or other firmware? I don't want to brick my device.
Everything on the phone otherwise works, I just don't like the HiBoard being in Chinese so I would like to get google on that screen instead. Is this possible yet? I do have developer options but i cannot select unlock bootloader.
This is my first Huawai phone so I'm not too clear on how to go about doing this.
I was going to grab the firmware from this site;

I thought Huawei locked the bootloader, no?

sorry you're right, i will edit my post, i do have developer options access but no bootloader option in here
Hi ! Does anyone have any news on if we are able to flash international firmware on vog-al10 ? I'm in the same situation as OP. Bought the phone in China but wanted to use it in Europe and current firmware is not well translated. Also, are we able to do so without unlocking the bootloader ?

Any luck? I'm in same situation as you.
I can't even add credit card to Google Pay as it says device is rooter or modified. Also shows as device not certified under Google play

Nope. I can add credit cards to google pay (I removed all the default apps, and switched to Google services is maybe why?) but i cannot use NFC, I can only pay with play store.

Probably I didn't describe the issue well. I can also add a card but not to be used with NFC at store. So same as you..
I also have P30 Pro VOG-AL10 (512GB, 8GB) and I'd like to crossflash it to L29.
Can I flash it using "normal" procedure (firmware->sd card, run update.app) ?
VOG-AL10 with Google account
Here is the solution: You need a mid range non activated in China Huawei phone logged with your Google personal account turned on. Open the ' PHONE CLONE' in your VOG-AL10 and select 'THIS IS THE NEW PHONE' to transfer all your data and apps stored in the mid range phone to the VOG-AL10. When the process has finished your VOG-AL10 will be a Chinese Huawei cloned phone with all the Google account functions.
Moral of the story - do your research first.
The P30 Pro Chinese versions do not usually have Google Play certification. I don't believe that there is currently a way to change the model ID to VOG-L29 either.

My account is registered without any problem with my email but if you want to start the warranty card you need a chinese / indian phone number. I don't need that because Liaow allready give a warranty. Really not a big deal for me.

what do you mean?
how to register live without a chinese phone number?
To create an account with e-mail only, you should be able to log in to your Vivo account with just e-mail if you use "WeChat, Alipay, Weibo, graph renren" account with other login methods from the official Vivo website in China . I created an account this way. No need for China, Hong Kong or India numbers.
You can use this german manual for creating a acc with a buyed number for just a few cents and also it is for change the launcher permanent to another one.

works bro thanks

Please keep in mind that this website generates a temporary number, which can be a massive pain, on my Vivo Nex S I did a factory reset a few weeks after using this method and when I started setting up the device, it recognise that the phone was already linked to a VIVO account and it asked again to confirm the PIN, the issue here is that the PIN was sent to the number generated from the website above, but because the number used was a temporary one, I was unable to setup my device after the reset, I eventually followed a hacky guide to bypass this, but it was a lot of frustrating hours around this. After this horrible experience, I put it straight to eBay, I'll never buy a Chinese model of Vivo or Oppo phones, both require a chinese number to set them up.

[MI 9T Pro] De-bloated Recorder, Notes, Gallery..

Hello fellow XDAers
Yesterday I received my MI9T Pro and I gotta say I'm pretty happy with it (the most annoying thing is the fingerprint scanner not working most of the times but I will try to add better my fingerprint maybe it will work out)
So I started to de-bloat apps via Fastboot and ADB (for some reason the Xiaomi java tool does not work for me, stays in looking for devices and then just freezes), so I searched a few forums and picked a few services that I thought they were unnecessary (like mi cloud, google apps like duo and facebook and some other mi apps), and now I cannot open the Recorder, Notes and also Gallery...
Message is ''Notes keeps stopping''
Again, I read on the packages list and picked on from there, I am pretty sure I didn't deleted things named like that, so I need to install those apps again but I do not know how to do it ONLY via fastboot.
Please help :crying:

Hey, make sure that before using the (Java) tool you have enabled 'Developer Options', you can do that by going to About Phone and then tapping the build number (Miui Version) a few times, then head to additional settings, developer settings and make sure that you have 'USB Debugging' enabled.

Adding new Google Account w. Googlefier w. EMUI 11 without restarting the whole process?

Hi,
unfortunately I had to change my password for my Google account for various reasons. Since this account was previously set up with the Googlefier on the smartphone, it can no longer be used or the new password can not be entered on it, it is not accepted. So i deleted the account on my phone because of the various error messges from all the apps which are using this account.
I still have a second Google account, which is also already available on the smartphone and which also still works. Nevertheless, I would like to use the other account also, because it is my main account. But when I try to add the main account as a new account on the smartphone, that doesn't work either ("An error occurred, we could not create the account").
Hence my question: googlefier is still installed. Can I use it to subsequently create the second account without having to reset the firmware on a 10.x version? Running 11.0.0.168 currently....
As a workaround i'm using Dual Space already, in which i can access my main google account, but thats not the "real thing"...
thx, jennix
Yes, you can, here is a very simply away:
- Uninstall Google Play Service.
- Install Micro G, then add your new account.
- Uninstall Micro G.
- Install Google Play Service again.
thx, but does uninstalling and reinstalling Google Play Service work without downgrading the firmware?

Yes, you can do it on Settings -> Apps -> Apps. (Just only remove 1 app: Google Play Service)
You don't need to downgrade or restart your phone.
Can anybody confirm if it is working.
No, it doesn't seem to work like i need it. But first, something reassuring: The smartphone will still run afterwards, so nothing will break.
But the real purpose, to bring my main account back to the device, didn't work. I have made several attempts. I uninstalled Google Play Services, installed Micro G, added both accounts (both were then visible under Vanced G account), then uninstalled Micro G, installed Google Play Services, and all that happened was that only my secondary account was available again. I couldn't log in with the main account, e.g. in Play Store or in maps, there were always error messages like "we are having problems with server communication" etc.
In another attempt, I created only the main account in Micro G, and still afterwards only the secondary account was operational in Google Apps.
I did this several times, sometimes also with restarting the phone between the steps, but it's still the case: my secondary account is working, the main account is still not there.
OK, i can live with this, but...

Because you mentioned you changed password for 1st account, so I think that you have to remove it first by going to:
- Settings -> Users and Accounts -> Google.
- Access your 1st account here, then click on the recycle bin icon to remove it.
Then you can do those steps again (Remove Play Server, Install Micro G, add account again, remove Micro G, install Play Service).

Hey @Shymmy, thank you very much. Even if it was a bit hard to follow the video because i'm not able to understand the spanish language i could follow the steps and finally: It works! Even with EMUI 11.x while in the video it's still at 10.x. So now i have again two working google accounts at this phone! Thanks again!
Does Google play Works?
Yes.
But depend on what method do you use for having GMS. I have an old one, all works; with Googlefier I think you can have notification or Google Play (freeze framework or not).

Can't get Google Family Link off of my son's phone

I put Google Family Link with restrictions on my son's phone but now that he will be 18 and his own man, I need to remove those restrictions. I removed him from Family Link via the app on my phone but now I see on his phone there is still a device admin from Family Link and it won't let me remove it. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I've tried removing him via Google Play and my Google account settings but the device admin is still on his phone.

You have misinterpreted the principle of Google Family Link.
It is not the parent, but the adult (according to regulations in the country) child who disables the service himself.
He can't get it off his phone. The Family Link has a device admin setup and will not allow him to remove it.
