Hey guys I just bought in China used Mi5,
Seller told me that i can't log in Mi account, so now I can't update my MIUI rom,
Miui version is 7.2.12.0 can someone tell me how to remove binding from old account and install clean Global Stable rom?
Download the version you want (i suggest the Global Developer version) and put it in the Download_rom map of the phone.
Then start the Update software, choose from menu for installing downloaded rom and choose the downloaded version.
After that, you can register online an own (new) MI account.
If the phone is still bootloader locked you can ask for unlock permissions on your new account.
If already unlocked, just connect you new MI account with the phone.
Last step can be done from the developer version in the developer menu.

I am not sure if i understand correctly, but the bootloader will not get locked just from the upgrade.
It can get locked by a full new install via the MI flash software (if you want that).
You can simply logout from the current Mi account, so the phone is not mapped to that old account.
Make a new Mi account if you don't have it, and login on the phone with that account.
If the phone is bootloader locked, wait 24 hours after login and then request unlock permissions.
But yours was already unlocked i thought.

Ok, then start by logging out the MI account.
You will not need a password for that, just go to settings and find the MI account and logout.

No I can't because now I have installed rom without Mi services, If I install global rom with Mi services my phone will be locked

If you have a MIUI without Mi account in the settings, then i think you have a custom rom and not the original China or Global rom.
If you follow my steps, then you will not lock the bootloader.
Download the Global Developer or the China Developer version and put in on the phone in the Download_rom directory.
Start the Update App.
Push on the 3 dots (menu) button on the top right.
Choose for 'Other rom' or something like that.
Choose the downloaded full version rom and choose install.
That will give you a developer version with the Mi account option and it will not lock your phone.
I think your device is bypassed Mi account lock for temporary .
device can lock after firmware update or factory data reset , please be careful
Redmi 3s
bootloader is unlocked in my device. i frequently shift between miui and stock rom. Once when i came back to miui rom from stock, everything came up, but i got a screen saying "mi account is locked" and it wants me to verify the account. So when i entered the password of the mi account, it says "cant verify, cant connect to internet". The thing is im not able to bypass that screen, without bypassing i cant use the phone nor cant enter any app.
Im using global developer rom.
Please help me.
Hello Everyone, i'm sure you know this message... I jast can't pass it, drives me crazy! (This device was reset to continue, sign in with a Google account previously synced on this device)
The story:
I just bought a used Mi5, installed CM13 + GAps, and this message appeared when i tried to start the phone for first time (initial setup).
So, the previous owner didn't remove his google account, to use the phone, i first has to login with his account. OK.
(NOTE:he tried to login to google devices / security page, and remove the phone from there, he couldn't
What i did:
I called the previous owner, and asked for his password.
He provided me, but since he was using his G-passwords other places as well, changed it to a temporary, and gave that to me.
Tried to login with HIS Google Account, then the message changed: "sorry, due to the reason, that the password changed recently, you can't login to this device" ...OUCH
OK... I thought, i put MIui 8 Global back, and try it from there.
Installed Stock firmware Mi8 started with the initial setup, logged into google with the previous owner account, WORKED!
Went to settings, removed the previous owner account,
reboot,
Did a factory reset.
Started MI again, added my google account,
reboot.
Install CM13 + Gaps.
THE MESSAGE IS STILL THERE (This device was reset to continue, sign in with a Google account previously synced on this device), can't login to the phone.
So after installing CM13 google still dedects the phone with as it's connected to the previous owner. I'm really clueless here.
IS there any solution for this? HELP ME PLEASE (screaming out loud)
Installed Stock firmware Mi8 started with the initial setup, logged into google with the previous owner account, WORKED!
Went to settings, removed the previous owner account,
reboot,
I think before doing factory reset, you should login to your own google acc.
If you will use cm13, wipe everything and flash rom and reboot, wait for home screen to show up and then flash gapps... The point is flash the gapps after first boot.

I'm not sure about that, i mean, the posts are usually saying, that remove the account, then do the factory reset, but it may worth a shot, if it works, i will report back here.
I really don't know why i didn't think of that

Hello guys, I need help.
I'm trying to help a friend, he updated his phone to the latest rom, and lost WiFi and Bluetooth connection, so he asked me for help, but so far I didn't help much.
1. First I asked for unlock permission and then unlock bootloader
2. Flashed a custom recovery, wipe data and flash a new custom rom. Still no WiFi or Bluetooth and phone start to take long time to boot, like 7 or 8 hours
3. Flashed an official rom with miflash and that's when I made a mistake, I didn't choose flash only, and "flash and BL lock" was the choice by default. WiFi and Bluetooth still not working and BL is locked...
And now I can't sign in on Mi account, keeps saying "checking password...", don't know why and that way, when try to unlock bootloader it says that phone isn't bide to my Mi account...
Phone is connected with data, and can navigate with browser, so it's not internet connection.
Is there any way I can sign in to Mi account or other way to unlock bootloader?
Thank you

Just boot to MIUI and then go to the settings menu.
Open the Phone settings (About phone i believe) and then tap 7 or 8 times on the MIUI Build number.
It will start counting down and then tell you that you are a developer.
Go back to main settings, then More setttings ( i think it was) and open the developer options.
In there is an option to connect a MI account to that phone.
Connect the phone to the same MI account that has been used to unlock BL the first time.
I can be wrong about the exact names of the settings, because it is already some time ago for me, but in basic this should do it.
Thank you for your reply, but I already tried that, it leads to the same account signing in place, which is still a no go...

Well, in my case the problem was that the phone's wi-fi was broken, I think it was the motherboard, and it seems that you can only log in when connected to a wi-fi network. Through data you can't log in, at least that's what I was told by Xiaomi support

Hi a while ago i unlocked my boot loader and after a long time not using the phone i locked the boot loader,,im trying to unlocvk again using same account andit keeps saying account not authorised. even though im using same account.??
i also logged into mi website to post there and as soon a click post it says banned from posting??
is there anything right about xiaomi that just works??
How do i get over this hurdle of unlocking boot loader again?
Regards
I guess You have to apply again for unlock with MiFlash_Unlock tool and wait 168 hours. If this account is bugged you can try a new account. As far as i know this is the only method to unlock bootloader on xiaomi phones.
so i deleted account and recreated new account with same number now it says please add your account to miui settings > developer settings >mi unlock status...which i have done and it says successfully added but every time i go to unlock keeps saying the same above thing to add to your account....
Are you using latest version Mi Unlock ?
Try uninstall/reinstall Mi unlock tool.

Yes I have tried that. Still no go. What happened was I locked boot loader which then gave me destroyed system error. I got someone to reinstall latest Chinese rom. Phone is all working now but this is the issue I am having. Keeps saying add account to device as mentioned above.

That's a strange issue. I've never had problems unlocking the bootloader of my Xiaomi phones.
Try remove your Mi account (in settings) , reboot , then log in again . Then add back the account in developer setting.
And try run as administrator option , when opening Mi unlock app.

once you added the new account dont add it anymore because you are resetting the 168 hours timer. i think you just have to wait 7 days and try to unlock with the mi unlock tool

Tried that too and reinstalled the rom from scratch. Still same issue. I have a feeling it’s my old number and email associated to that account that might be causing the issue as it’s been used before to unlock boot loader? but tomorrow new email new number. Let’s see. Will update.
Regards.
If you have deleted the old account before creating a new one it should not cause a problem. But yeah delete all accounts connected to this phone number and make a new account with a different email. Good luck buddy! Tell us what happened after that
so made new account with gmail and new number and followed these steps and downloaded unlock tool from here and it all worked finally, now it says wait 168 hours
downloaded unlock tool from https://en.miui.com/unlock/download_en.html
and updated it,
followed these instructions and used us as region when creating account but used uk number
one thing i did was make an account via email first on the website and set region to us, once account was created i logged in at the website and added recovery number through there, then logged in to xiaomi account oh phone and it showed up.
Make a Mi account through Google and set the region to US - it's important to set the region to US... EU gave me the rebind error
Add the Mi account to your phone (settings -> Mi Account)
Set the recovery phone on your Mi account and verify the phone number.
Make sure you have OEM Unlocking and USB Debugging enabled
Go to Mi Unlock status -> add account (make sure you're on data)
In your PC download the latest Mi Unlock Tool (click on the gear icon and check for updates + download if there are any)
In the same gear menu check for USB Drivers and install them
Log into the same Mi account in the Unlock tool
Enter Fastboot on your phone
Unlock (it may prompt you to wait 168 hours, but after that you should be able to unlock)
patiently awaiting now

Well I was this close to selling the thing if this last step didn’t work. But now will install eu rom as that’s what I had before and it worked good.
Only reason I changed to iPhone was it worked better with my Audi as the direction part on google maps on android auto took up quite a fair bit of the screen which was annoying.
Still does but worked out how to change it from the right side of the screen to the left which is a tad better I guess.

Hi Guys
a little update
as I am waiting for the days to countdown to unlock bootloader, I decided to go to work on the current miui14 Chinese rom, I deleted all the installed Chinese apps all the bloatware completely, activated google play services, installed play store, installed all my current apps, duplicated this phone and the home screen layout exactly to my iPhone set up, logged into my cards and banking apps without any issues, installed vanced YouTube and premium Spotify and as well as a couple no longer available apps.. set everything to English, deleted baidu and mifly keyboard installed google keyboard, and its exactly like how I would have it as if the boot loader was unlocked with a eu.rom.
now if I can get all this without unlocking bootloader all through a Chinese rom, why would i want to go through the headache of unlocking the bootloader to install a eu rom which is based on this very Chinese rom I believe?
can anyone suggest any reasons as to why anyone would go through the bootloader headache, unless I forgot something that i do that i haven't done via this route that might pop to mind later.

I didnt like the Chinese rom because:
1)the search engine (when you swipe up on home screen) is chinese and u cant change it.
2)"Ok Google" voice command was not working (or was buggy) if i remember correctly.
3) There were some other things that were coming up in chinese but i dont remember exactly what.
4) Many apps were not working in the background and i was not receiving notifications even when i locked those apps, put them on "no restriction" and enabled "auto start".
5) I saw many good bonus features that the EliteRom has (gets updates every 1 or 2 weeks, based on xiaomi.eu weekly) and decided to try it. So far i really like it!
But if you are okay with the Chinese ROM, u can stick with it
Hello guys. I maybe have the same problem.

Make sure you use the app provided in link in my original post as after using a new email and new number I downloaded the unlock app from that link as the one I was using before had a different layout and kept giving that darn issue.
