Just sign out and sign in again with your Mi account in the phone.

Wait... What!? How is it possible you are on global rom with indian K20 pro and locked bootloader?

do one thing, login to mi account, then backup to MI CLOUD.. after a while MI servers will detect your MI ACCOUNT, then try logging out of MI ACCOUNT, then ADD MI ACCOUNT, check if sync is ON, and check BACKUP in MI CLOUD.
then try..

Tried, still the same.

I guess there's some issue with MiUI 11... The count down was running when I was in MiUI 10, but when I checked the countdown yesterday (after updating to MiUI 11), I'm facing the same issue..

I am facing the same error. After adding the account in MI Unlock Status in the Developer options, enabling OEM Unlock, waiting for 7 days, I am getting an error in the mi unlock tool, "Couldn't unlock. Please add your account in MIUI's Settings>Developer options>Mi Unlock Status.".
I have even formatted the phone using the official recovery, but to no help.
Would really appreciate if someone could shine some light on this issue.
Thanks

Yes, I have the same issue.
Seems the problem is from Xiaomi's end or the problem is MIUI
I was on MIUI 11 when requested for unlocking, it said 168 hours and now this problem. "Couldn't unlock. Please add your account in MIUI's Settings>Developer options>Mi Unlock Status.".
Will downgrading to MIUI 10 solves this problem?

I'm thinking of downgrading once I found the fastboot rom.

Same thing happened to me
I bricked my k20 so I flashed a fastboot ROM, but selected the flash and lock option by mistake. The fastboot ROM was 10.3.3 and the unlock didn't work. I got the same error you did. I even updated to 10.3.5 and still the same error. So there is no point in downgrading. As multiple people have the same from past few days it must be Xiaomi's fault. We just have to Hope they fix the issue soon.

Did you try from a different laptop? Perhaps it's a USB driver problem?
I had exactly the same issue and it was solved by signing in again on my Mi account in my phone.
Is USB debugging activated in developper options? What is your OS?

Same here.tried two days but no change

Just one small question; will unlocking the BL
erase all (user)data on the phone? Mi unlock
tool gives a warning that all will be erased.

I am too facing same issue. No luck so far. Waiting for unlock since week. Tried everything still getting same error.

Same issue here - Tried unlocking with multiple accounts and with multiple version of the unlock tool.
Seems the issue is either with MIUI 11 or with Xiaomi Servers which are unable to identify the bound account to the device.
I suspect it is more to do with backend services because when I initially tried to unlock on MIUI 11, the unlock tool gave me a wait time of 168 hours and now this error.

I believe to flash back to China Rom which version is less than 9.5.17 or should I say the ROM without rollback enabled is prohibited by Xiaomi unless you have the EDL Authorization access in your account. I'm not sure how to get this EDL authorization. People are saying that if you have this EDL authorization you may flash to any rom. If I'm wrong, please do correct me.
Sorry to say, but I see hundreds of reports the last days about bricked phones.
Mostly about the Xiaomi redmi note 5 pro and the Xiaomi Mi 8.
Xiaomi doesn't want to give authorization for edl. so sorry to say but you can trow your phone in the trash bin.
Nothing will solve your problem due Xiaomi policy, u can't repair your phone it useless.
Xiaomi official statement is buy our products in your region.
You should have flashed a Xiaomi.eu rom. They are completely translated, without any China stuff and aren't as aggressive when it comes to flashing things alongside the kernel and system ( for example, you get to keep TWRP even after the flash, unlike pure stock ).
A lot of people mentioned an EDL account but you have to wait for a decent amount of time to get approval from Xiaomi. Don't throw your phone away like the guy above said. xD

I tried and it did not work:crying:

is there anyway to unlock bootloader without permission on miui 10?

One of my friend has redmi note 3 kenzo
It would be very helpful if someone has a trick to unlock bootloader without permission.
I think there is no need of permission for old devices for unlocking bootloader.
One of my friend has Redmi note 4X and was able to unlocked without asking for permission.
even this worked for his Redmi 3S but with 72hours of waiting time.
Just logged in into Mi unlock tool with same account as in device and your friend should be able to unlock bootloader (maybe not right away but with several hours of waiting time)
Problem isn't that
Problem is :- He is not able to add his mi account from developer option for oem unlocking.
An error occur always.

Yes, right. Log in in Mi unlock tools on PC with the same account as in the phone and then connect phone in fastboot mode but first make sure oem unlock is enable and usb debugging is turned on. ignore the account log in in phone.
just give it try.

Log out of mi account in your phone, log in again, associate that account with your device then try unlocking the bootloader. Worked for me that way.

Don't be confused. Older devices are unlockable without even applying(i am saying this on my experience) i have unlocked two of my friends Redmi 3S and Redmi note 4X without even applying to xiaomi.
never devices needs to have permission to unlock and it takes time and request can get rejected if the it does not meet their conditions.
if you have old device such as more than a year or more.
Just download and install Mi flash tools and you are good to unlock but it still shows error of 50% or stuck at 99% so you'll have to unlock after remaining hours which will show on mi unlock tools.
I just used this method to unlock my Mi Max 2, Miui 10

Its most likely server error from xiaomi as it happens many times and almost everyone faced it whoever tried to unlock i guess.
Please try again later and if possible try and connect to different WiFi network before adding account.
Also you can just give it a try by enabling USB debugging, oem unlock turned on from developers options and then just turn off your device and boot into fastboot mode and try unlocking it, regardless of adding mi account.
You should also try some different versions of mi unlock tools(preferably older version).
As i have mentioned it worked without even adding account and it took 3 days to unlock as it was getting stuck at 50% or 99% and was asking to wait for 72 hours and later it unlocked in first try so this should work for you too.
There is unofficial way to unlock bootloader please search on XDA/YouTube or some other websites.

Can you like tell me the full procedure that i have to do to unlock it.
Mi unlock tool just says you have to add account in mi unlock status.
Thanks for the help if this works it will help me out a lot.

See. This is why you should flash WITHOUT locking BL in MiFlash, if something goes wrong u can do it again but if you have locked BL, then you probably need to use EDL

Cannot unlock bootloader - chinese error message

Hi,
I've bought the Mi 9T Pro on Amazon.
So far, everything works fine besides the fact that I get an error message in chinese while using the Mi flash unlocker to unlock the bootloader.
Mi account logged in. Since I don't have a nano-sim yet for my main number I've used my spare card to activate it.
Anyone fluent in chinese what might be missing here?

The message says that the device has been locked via the MI find my device service. Is the number your account? If so, you will have to unlock your device first via find my device.

Edit: the number is not my primary under which I've registered my other Mi devices. But I've used it once to unlock my dad's Mi Mix 3, which is also registered with my Mi account.

If the displayed account is your account, you should be able to just head to i.mi.com and unblock your own device. If it's someone else's account number, that means someone has marked it stolen or otherwise locked.
Alright, after cutting my sim I continued. After updating the MiUi Flasher I get now errors in English.
New error: "Current account is not bound to this device. Enable it under dev options -> Mi Unlock status."
I did exactly that - I inserted the sim, went to this options, and ticked link to account. fter that I got a message "linked successfully". In fastboot mode in the flasher I get the same exact error again. The phone does not seem to be recognized by the Mi account and is thus not listed in the Mi cloud.
Any ideas what went wrong and how to fix it?

Log in to the Mi Flash Tool using the phone number of the SIM that's in the phone and was used to register the phone for unlocking (when you go to developer settings, unlock status)
This normally happens because the phone number wasn't registered on your Mi account before starting the unlock process.
That was the error, ty very much. I did always login with my email. After the phone number it did show a timer.
PS: a whole week now? No idea why they prolong it each time...

Might have been due to an older version of the Mi flash tool. After I updated it, it was in english. Maybe the older version did not have support for the global Mi 9T and thought I have a chinese K20 Pro.

Waiting 168 hours to unlock bootloader for more than a month

So I bound the Mi account I use on my 9T Pro when I bought it in October (came from redmi 4x) and in November I tried to unlock the bootloader from the common method using Mi unlock, but it said I had to wait 168 hours, I waited like 15 days (I was occupied by work and forgot about the bootloader thing) then, 15-16 days after tried to unlock the bootloader again and got the same "wait 168 hours"; I waited another week+1 day and tried to unlock it again and the same 168 hours message appeared. Today, another week+1 day passed and tried to unlock again and the same message showed up again.
Tl;Dr :
I've been trying to unlock the bootloader for like 2 months and every time I try to unlock it it shows "wait 168 hours".
Any way to fix this or unlock the bootloader without mi unlock?
when you say you tried to unlock the bootloader, what did you actually do?
Also during the wait time was the phone on? Was the SIM card in? were you using it while you waited?
After waiting a week what are you doing?
You should not do anything on the phone, other than put it into fastboot.
Then connect to the PC and use the Mi Unlock Tool as normal.
Doing things like changing the Mi account linked to the phone, binding the phone again in the Mi Unlock Status screen, etc. will reset the timer.
I am facing same issue on my mi note 10!!
Do you able to unlock your Device then??
From my experience you can use your phone normally while you wait , make sure you use an Intel based pc and make sure you install and update the drivers from mi unlock tool and mi flash tool .
It happened to me once because i didn't have the drivers correctly installed , and log in to both devices , also oem unlock on in dev options just in case.
Just go to developer mode and check mi unlock status and follow what has been said. And dont just login mi account in your phone but also sync your account with your phone
I have followed all rules
1)I didn't sign out my mi account from the device during waiting time!!
2)used my phone normally with sim card
3) i installed drivers from mi unlock tools
4)oem &usb debugging is on
5)i tried with 3 accounts but same issue occuring!

You should have already added the Mi account at the start of the process. Redoing this again at the end is why the counter is getting reset.
After 7 days you only need to put the phone in fastboot mode, connect to the PC and run the unlock tool.

No brother listen, suppose i added mi account in mi unlock status ...then maintaining all rules(find device on,sync on) i have entered to fastboot mode and starts the unlock process by mi unlock tools then i got 168 hours timer
Ok fine then after 7 days don't i need to again add account to mi unlock status??? I talked about this!! I didn't logout mi account from my device within the 7 days!
If you talk about that after 7 days i just need to go at fastboot mode and unlock through the mi unlock tools then my question is how my device will recognize?? It won't show any error like add your device in mi unlock status?????
Check this note i found it miui website
Note:
1. Follow the timer/ waiting period shown in Mi Unlock Tool to unlock successfully.
2. After you've successfully bound your Mi Account, do not factory reset/ log out the approved Mi account from your phone. Otherwise, the timer will be reset and you gotta spend more time waiting again.

At the start you go to the Mi Unlock Status in the developer options and press the button to link and validate (bind) the phone with your Mi account(needs to be done over cellular data). This only needs to be done once. If you do this step again it resets the 7 day timer.
After 7 days you just need to use the Mi Unlock Tool, logging in to it with the account you already linked to the phone 7 days earlier.

I got it !!
That's the issue!! Okay i will try after next 7 days
So the summary is like
Unlocking process has two parts
1st part
We need to apply and get 7 days waiting
In this step we need to add mi account through mi unlock status (developer option)
2nd part
After 7 days just directly booted to fastboot and starts unlocking procedure by mi unlock tools!!
But are you sure about that???

Brother, you shouldn't add the mi account in MI unlock status more than once. Just add it the first time only. If you add it again, the waiting timer resets.

At the start you go to the Mi Unlock Status in the developer options and press the button to link and validate (bind) the phone with your Mi account(needs to be done over cellular data). This only needs to be done once. If you do this step again it resets the 7 day timer.
After 7 days you just need to use the Mi Unlock Tool, logging in to it with the account you already linked to the phone 7 days earlier.

okay...... i wish to do that cz after i updated to android 11 this june...the wifi speed on my phone has decreased drastically...... nd it was a normal update ..... not something i forced....i've resetted my phone almost 10 tmes now but nothing worked......all the other devices connected to my router work at the max bandwidth except for this one. So i plan on fastbooting my phone with the previous android 10 version which was on my device before android 11...... does anybody think that it might fix the issue?
After binding the phone to your Mi account, using the Mi Unlock Status, put the phone into fastboot and connect to the PC.
Login to the Mi Unlock Tool on the PC and try to unlock the phone. If your lucky it might unlock straight away. If not it will tell you how long you need to wait. (Used to be 7 days)
If you need to wait, disconnect the phone and continue to use it as normal.
Once the wait period has expired, put the phone into fastboot and connect to the PC.
Login to the Mi Unlock Tool and try the unlock process again. This time it should work.
Do not do the Mi Unlock Status process again. It restarts the timer.

One more thing to know, if you haven't got that far.
There used to be a bug with the Mi Unlock Status process and I don't know if it's fixed.
If your Mi account never had your phone number linked to it, the Mi Unlock Status process would create a new account, using your phone number from the SIM card and with the password of your original Mi account, instead of updating the original Mi account with the phone number.
When using the Mi Unlock Tool, logging in with your email or Mi ID, if it says the phone isn't linked to your account, use your phone number to login to the tool instead.

I have never used this bypass method but when a reset from the phone while connected, the activation of the phone does not appear, it only appears in the event of a flash of another version of rom.

This is only possible if the phone has been removed from the other account.
