Just create your own MI account an request for unlock permissions.
Should work without much problems.
You can't, since every mi Phone bind it's imei to previous account on that device.

Then you would never be able to sell the phone to another person, since you had to give your own mi account to that buyer.
Sorry but i can't believe that.
If it is, it is stupid and should be changed.
Try signing out from the previous account
I was able to change from one MiUi account to another by first signing out from one MiUi account. I think on the device it says "un-register device on account" or similar. So you could try installing the previous de-bloated rom and try to unregister the device while booted into the rom, and then install new Rom.

just sign out mi account binded to that phone and sell it, i answered he can't because he bought mi 5 in china so how he found previous owner ?. there is only 2 solutions : 1. use any rom except miui 2. using dongle box to remove mi account that binded to that phone..
I have same problem, what I have to do? how to remove binding?
you can bypass activation state with any xiaomi account bypass support box or dongle.
I recommended MRT Dongle or BST Dongle.
if your device is bootloader unlocked , try flash custom recovery and remove /system/app/finddevice/FindDevice.apk via recovery
-1 . /system/app/finddevice.apk
-2./system/app/Cloud.apk
If I were to buy a used Mi5 and I dont have the mi account that was originally used on the phone, can I unlock the bootloader?
As far as I know, the Mi Unlock tool only checks if the Mi Account you login to is the same as the one currently in use on the phone. It should work.
So if someone factory resets, no account used then I use a new account, all should be good?

Yeah, as long as that user removes the device from their Mi account, as you won't be able to sign in to any other one otherwise.
Yeah, I would make sure that user actually removes the device from their Mi account. Even when I use Miflash and install a new ROM via fastboot, I still get prompted to enter my Mi account password.

excuse mi5 masters, i just bought mi5 (2nd hand) after i want to try unlock bootloader it can not because it is true that the phone is stolen and already in bypas by the seller, is there any way how to clean user account MI before it or how to unlock another bootloader for mi5 that I have bought this can be on tWRP ?? please help his master
AFAIK, only if you know the original owner's Mi account credentials, login with them, log out and only then wipe. At least that's how it went when I lent my girlfriend her Mi Max 2 after using it first for a couple of days before her, or as I did with a friend's Redmi Note 3 Pro. In both cases, I had to remove the link to the previous user's Mi Account by loging in and out with it. Even a full flash + wipe with MiFlash wouldn't do the trick. They just got stuck with my Mi Account (in the Mi Max 2 case) and my friend's account (the Redmi Note 3 case) without doing that. Good luck with that, I wish I could help any better.
then from that I am confused what to do because people who sell it to me already can not be in contact and I am sure that this phone is a stolen phone

dude just do a bit of research...there are several ways
i've found some things
the first is to flash the MIUI 7 firmware, reset and put a new miui account on the phone and then flashing back to miui 8 and using a new account, if you can't flash anything, just buy a DIY flash cable for mi5
just search "bypass mi account" on youtube, there are a lot of videos
Yes master, now my phone is in a state already bypas, which is the problem here i have back and forth from miui7 and 8 but the previous user MI can not be erased, still caught and finally I can not do UBL
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.
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.

Oh someone can read it.
Any idea how or where I can remove that completely?
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...
Mi 9t pro should be on global rom,why is the warning msg in Chinese?

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.

You are lucky, I have to wait 169hrs before I can unlock the bootloader.
