I forgot to mention that after this tutorial "android-help. de/forum/xiaomi-mi5.2683/loesung-xiaomi-mi5-starting-no longer-bricked. 808091. html" I have a connection to my smartphone. But the tool doesn't recognize Rom.
Update:
The Flashtool could now successfully flash the Rome to the Xiaomi. However, the phone still won't start. The only thing that the red LED lights up when you plug it in or try to turn it on.
Anybody else have a tip?
Update:
The Phone is running. Thank you
Just tried to unlock my phone and getting this. Scary, some says they had to wait 7days..!! How to shorten this?
If you got the message aproving your device unlock then you only need to wait 72hrs to unlock it, if not, then you can wait up to 10 days for that aproval
Which approval are you talking about...? I didn't get anything.
I received the acceptance SMS in 7 minutes, tried to unlock and got 72 hours have to wait.
Tried to unlock after 20 hours, 50 hours, and then 71 hours (it is accurate that it told me to wait 1 hour when I tried after 71 hours LoL)
Now i checked it says 50hours. So it should be ok even without that SMS whjch i never got..? From which number does it comes by the way?
Please, how did you check that you have to wait another 50 hours? Six days waiting for SMS and nothing ...
This is absolutely unnecessary of xiaomi....
Just tried unlock procedure again.
Did you use an unlocking service to network unlock your phone?
If so, it means that the unlocking process for your phone needs 72 hours to generate the unlock (be it an unlock code or an unlock confirmation).
This happens usually with certain networks, the waiting time to unlock a device can last from a few minutes to a few days
If you ask unlock permission, you'll receive a SMS with confirm.
When you connect your phone to the unlock tool that you can download from Xiaomi, it will countdown 72hours indeed.
Just relax, and wait
You can try MIUI in the meanwhile, besides the bloat/security crap it's quite a good rom!
Phone unlocked; no problem. But what a disapointment over the Redmi 3S so far..! The notification LED will only flash white. Redwolf recovery does not support encryption. May sound funny bug huge issues for me!
The waiting period was 12-13 days, whether it was normal, I duly sent the request,no SMS, thx.....What do I do?

Don't be lazy anymore. That's a Google search away, people can only help you one first time.
I'd give oreo roms some wait. You can try Nitrogen OS, it has been actively developed. I'm sticking to Resurrection Remix Nougat 5.8.5 for now.
Also, check out Clarity kernel. There are amazing features it can bring.
I already waited over one month still "current account cannot unlock device" due to 86023 hardware Id 异常.

Got myself a Moto G5S meanwhile and I won't use my Redmi 4X until unlocked, somebody logged in at paypal - it's been a 32 digit pass - from america since I bound it to playstore at this device.
As title suggests I want to know if I can use the same Mi account to unlock bootloader of Mi Max 2 as I used to unlock my redmi 3s last month. Plz reply...
I'm using the same Mi account In two devices.
I didn't need to ask for a permission again when i was unlocking my new Mi Max 2. Previously i had Redmi Note 4. Also, my sister bought the same Mi Max 2, and i used my account to unlock her bootloader. Later just deleted my account, and she created a new one for her. You can try it, you don't have anything to loose.

Thanks for brief reply. Tried to unlock mi max 2 last night with the same account in miUnlock tool and it asked me to wait for 72 hours. Hope I'll get it unlocked without any error.. *Finger crossed*
Yeah, you can unlock a device every 30 days if I remember correctly.
Bootloader successfully unlocked.
my situation is a bit different. I registered a mi account, bound the phone number for my Mi Mix to that account, applied for unlocking permission, waited 3 days then flashed the global rom to replace the China rom. No problem until I dropped and broke my Mi Mix. I have now purchased another new Mi Mix which has the China rom and I want to flash to global rom again. This new / replacement phone has the same phone number / sim card as the first phone. Do I sign in to my mi account on the new phone and apply for unlocking permission? Or should I set up a brand new mi account for the new phone. On the miui forums people are telling me I can unlock the new phone with my existing account but I would have to wait 30 days to unlock. Others on the miui forums are telling me to register a new account so I only have to wait 3 days. Any suggestions?

I'm a part of Miui Device Team and I'm curious who told you such a thing as waiting "30 days"? Maximum what could happen would be 360 hours, which is 15 days. Also, the waiting time for the permission is removed, so technically, you would now wait maybe a day or a two, maybe not even that. Don't create a new account unless you need to. Try applying for unlocking with the old account and see what happens.

Hi @craigrB , The unlock permission is binded with your MI account and can be used with any Xiaomi Devices that has a locked bootloader, Unfortunatly you will have to wait 30 days in order to unlock it using the same MI account.

And yes, I don't even know that flashing a stable ROM will reset the 30days count down, I just did it this morning, on my 20 day

From the 2nd device forward, we have to wait 30 days for each. After unlock my redmi note 5 pro, i have to wait 30 days more for unlocking my Max 2
absolutely no wait time/ or less even, if account is not changed to a new one. Problem occurs mostly if device wasnt bond to mi account at least 72 hours before the try, and that mistake sure has been giving many headaches. Now i have got myself in the crazy situation that a friend broke his device screen, has bought another, but some data wasnt sinchronized with cloud, and needs them. would be all fine and easy if it was bind to a mi account, usb debugging is off, bootloader locked, oem unlock state close, I tried all known methods, no success. Maybe there is a workaround, but .... sure not an easy way, if there is. ADB commands - all out of discussion, fastboot with locked bootloader does not allow booting to twrp either. sideloading update still work in EDL mode, so i guess that could be the only way with an "update.zip" which patches all above mentioned settings to enabled, if posssible, i dont know how to create one . Device is Redmi note 9 Pro .
Not sure if this is the right forum, so i apologize ahead for the nuisance (first time here)
My question is: i have 2 devices connected to my Mi Account. If I unlock the other device, would it affect the other one? Or not for as long as I don't enable its oem unlock? Thank you.
hello
currently i'm in the wait for the bootloader of my mi 11 to unlock. I did all the process and i'm waiting for the 168 hours to end.
I wonder if i can know how many hours are left and if it's a yes then how.
thank you
No you can't, it's basicaly the same hours of the same day... the next week. So the better advise was to check the clock when you have click for the "Unlock" on Mi Unlock.
If you have a doubt, just be sure to do not want unlock before the remaining time, so flash the same day next week near midnight and you will be sure.

update: i just checked how many hours left and it worked and showed me the remaining hours!
just connect your mi account in the mi unlock tool and then put your phone in fastboot mode and connect it to the pc then the mi unlock tool will detect you phone and press unlock and it will show you how many hours left

When you entering miunlock before plugging phone in
Unlocking bootloader is more simple on any other brand. i think that was my last xiaomi. trying to unlock bootloader for 3 weeks now. Every single time showing: wait for 168 hours.

Really ? :
- Samsung = You lose Knox forever even if you restore / unroot your device
- Huawei = Unlock Bootloader is not permit from 4 years now...
Xiaomi = Just use Mi Unlock with his Xiaomi account logged, asking for unlock and wait 169 hours...

Xiaomi is not responsible for that... You must wait 169 hours like all people want unlock their Redmi/Xiomi devices.
If you have errors, errors are located between you, your phone and your computer.
This is my 4th time to wait 168 hours. Everytime I waited 8 days just to be sure. Always coming error, followed by wait 168 hours.
Hello,
I recently bought a Mi 11 but it came with the Chinese version of MIUI and I'd like to change it.
I missed a step in unlocking it and now the Mi Unlock app tells me to wait 168 hours (7 days):
"Please unlock 168 hours later. And do not add your account in MIUI again, otherwise you will wait from scratch."
I'd like to know if there's a way to shorten or remove this countdown because it's too long.
And if yes, how?
And if there's a way of installing the EEA version of MIUI with all the Google apps without waiting for that much, I'll take it!
(Note that I'm ready to factory reset my phone.)
Nah..
If there was a way, why would all other us 'idiots' wait 7 days
There is unofficial way to unlock bootloader on 888 Snapdragon phones, but could hard brick it... Not preffered
