[REDMI 4X] Help me to factory reset my phone

Hello guys !
Just got a REDMI 4X phone.
I blocked my phone with a schema and i don't remember the schema code...
So, i would like to reset my phone to factory (and find a way to remove schema code) !
I did not have register to Mi account, so i cannot do it with Mi Cloud.
I did not have enable USB Debugging before lock him..
When i go in recory mode, he ask me to plug in Mi PC Suite. but Mi PC Suite do not find the phone...
Please, how can i unlock my phone ?
Thanks

No one ?

Do you have Google device manager installed? It should be able to reset device too. If you do, just head for the https://www.google.com/android/find?u=0 and click Reset device.
Do you have bootloader unlocked? I presume you don't, but ask anyway.
Do you have the USB drivers installed? With the phone connected, right click This computer, click Manage and then Device manager. All categories should be collapsed, no yellow triangles with exclamation marks or red cicles with X-es. If there is, or simply to rule out the driver error, download http://adbdriver.com, open it and click Install. Then try again.

Did you solve the problem mate ?

Dude your only option is to flash the stock rom through fastboot via official miflash tool, assuming you do have device drivers installed.

Nope, the easiest method is to remotely factory reset the phone. You can do it from a browser . But the locked phone should have active internet connection and must be logged in google account.
Since most people connect their Google account to their phone and the redmi 4x can be connected to the data services even in locked condition makes it the easier option.
I had to do it and it worked like a charm, the phone will ask for google acc password once it resets.

Yeah there is that also.

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.

Try unlocking without adding account. It worked for me. It should work for you too.

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.

sorry but I don't get it... if you login to Mi account that means you are getting permission from Xiaomi isn't not?

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.

I am exactly facing the same problem please help
Dear friends i done all this
Sinin sin out
New mi account
And other stuffs
But none of them worked
I have redmi 6A

Thanks for the help if this works it will help me out a lot.

Hi, I have xiaomi 9 pro, I unlocked it successfully after getting the permision, tried to flash it following all the instructions, and at the end it showed error "Not catch checkpoint (\$fastboot -s *lock)" and the phone does not turn on anymore... so it is locked and I cannot ask for another permission... any suggestions how to fix that?

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

I wasn't able to solve any problem with the EDL point yet. Sorry to say that. Therefore, as Marcelsky said, don't lock your phone by flashing. Pay attention to the button in the Mi Flash. Otherwise may the phone stuck in the bootloop, or will not start and ..

Maybe try updating android drivers on your PC, I also had an error and updating fixed it.

Please check wether your Sim is activated with MI servers.

I already unlocked my Pro Max on Sunday

Okay nevermind got It,everything activated, dunno what's the problem for real, getting so confused.

Reinsert the sim in different slot and try

I generally connect the cable to my phone first and then connect cable to PC. Looks strange but sometimes works wonders.

Nothing, seems like a server IMEI or id problem...Not really know what It does mean though

I have the same problem. With the latest mi unlock-en-5.5.224.24 my phone is not recognized. Under barrel boat I can see my phone and also have it displayed. But not in the unlock app. I did everything according to the instructions:
1) Mi account linked (settings / mi account)
2) developer options
-oem unlock
- automatic system updates
- usb debugging
- install via usb
- time limit for adb
3) Mi account unlock
- Wlan off / sim on
- klik unlock account connected
4) Staten Mi Unlock app
- sign up for an account
- get sms
- confirm
5) switch off the device
- fastboot mode on
- first cable into the phone then to the laptop
- original cable used
Mi unlock app does not recognize the phone. Tried all drivers. The XiaomiMiToolV2 recognizes the phone. However, when I tried, my waiting time was set back to 168 hours. Should I now just wait 7 days and then try again with the tool ?! Why does he not recognize the phone in fast boat mode? It is displayed in the Windows device manager. in the shell i can find it under fastboot. USB Android driver from google or xiaomi made no difference. Anyone have an idea?
1000 thanks in advance

How can i do this? any links 0rstep by step please!

Start at mi unlock official site , you will get the prompted from there on the steps required

Could be that you are not making a proper connection between phone and PC, it needs to show up and install properly. I had the same problem on my rather elderly desktop, tried again on my laptop using a USB 3 cable, it worked.

Use my guide for 10 Ultra just for the unlock process. Here's a link to it from my mega page

bro if you get any solution kindly ping me ASAP

I faced this exact same issue yesterday.
Here's the solution:
Download this version instead: http://miuirom.xiaomi.com/rom/u1106245679/5.5.224.55/miflash_unlock-en-5.5.224.55.zip (this is official but the link is not available on the Mi Unlock website)
Unzip.
(Optional) Run driver_install_64.exe (if 64-bit) or driver_install.exe (if 32-bit) your PC doesn't have the proper drivers.
Run miflash_unlock.exe as Administrator.
Login. (It will not take you to your account view like the old version)
Connect your phone in Fastboot mode and click Unlock.

Did you run it as Administrator?
In that case, I suggest you uninstall the drivers by finding them in Device Manager and resinstall from driver_install_64.exe
