And when i locked it then the phone got stuck on the recovery mode saying "this miui version can't be installed on this device" but it already came with this MIUI i did not change nothing i just wanted to lock the bootloader. Now i am bricked and i can't do nothing, i have tried to wipe all data, but did not help...

Thank you very much for help. I have read both but unfortunately i can not UNLOCK my bootloader… when i was trying to unlock the bootloader through MI UNLOCK, it says "Current account is not bound to this device". Otherwise if this was succesful and i could unlock it, then it would be easy i believe.

Since you locked the boot loader, you'd have to flash (with fastboot) using the same flavor of miui which was installed. (example: chinese or eu variation), otherwise you won't be able to boot.

Yes, that i understood… There was EU variation with unlocked bootloader, which i do not know why, but okay…
But now i can not unlock it, it says, when i try to unlock it though fastboot with mi unlock, it says "Current acount is not bound to this device, ADD your acount and device in MIUI"s setting > developer options> mi unlock status.. but obviously i can not do it since i can not turn on my phone, its stuck on recovery mode.

I can help you
First of all you need chinese mi assistant
Second you need try three versions of roms(eeu , china , global) but im pretty sure that your phone is chinese version that bought from gray market and they unlock bootloader to install global rom
After you download these tell me, i guide you
Be sure download recovery rom (not fastboot)
It has .zip extension not tgz

If you know how to sideload the rom then everything is become okay dont worry
After successful debrick you must bound you mi account to your phone and wait for bl unlock then reflash with mi flash tool and global rom
AND DONT LOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER AGAIN
Yes, unfortunately i do not know how to sidload the rom... But when i have Chinese rom downloaded then what do i do with that? I connect the phone through mi assistant and there it can be flashed?
I had the same thing happen. You need to force a firmware flash ?
I had someone on xda recommend an excellent recovery tool.
It's called 'miflashpro'. It can be hard to find the English version. I did eventually but actually unbricked my Mi9 with the Italian version.
99% chance your cell can be fixed this way
bricked too
I'm having the same problem here, after wipe in twrp mode my phone restart and i'm blocked on bootloader screen.

I did the same thing with a Mi CC9 relocked the bootloader by mistake thinking it was like any other android phone. Did you have a Xiaomi account associated with the phone and signed into after enabling oem unlock in developer options.
If tha'ts the case you can use https://en.miui.com/unlock/ tool from where but it checks your phone number to see whether its associated with mi unlock.
Otherwise you will have to use EDL method which involves disassembling back of phone and shorting out two pins to initialize EDL data transfer but you need a EDL associated account this (belief xiaomi has revoked everyone access to these)
Hello all members.I had same problem and I open this phone with suport from youtube .I try clean some connector and worming cpu and motherboard. After change the battery with new. When close the phone they suprised me and working good.After 10 hours again close and bricked.

I hope some other find which connector have problem in this phone and pm me. Now my MI 9 working good but I keep bickerful ...
Few days ago I bought Redmi K20 Pro from China. There was by default Chinese Stable ROM on my device. So I wanted to flash Global Stable ROM & replace Chinese Stable ROM. I got the permission to unlock my bootloader through mi flash unlock tool.
So I unlocked the bootloader on PC. Then I tried to flash Global Stable Fastboot ROM using mi flash tool. While I was flashing, mistakenly I chose "clean all & locked" on mi flash tool.
After flashing, my phone got stuck on recovery mode & it shows "This MIUI version can't be installed on this device". While I am trying to unlock my bootloader again using mi flash unlock tool then it says: You should wait 30 days to unlock another device.
Anyone can give me a proper solution how to get rid of it? I am stuck with it since yesterday.
Your help will be very much appreciated.

1. Thread is in the wrong section
2. You can only unlock one device per month.
3. You are lucky if you didn't brick your device.:laugh:

Try after 7 days from today or at max you'll have to wait for 30 days before you can unlock. Use an another phone for the time being.

The limit is unlocking once per calender month.
On the 1st of the month the time will therefore reset to the normal 7 days, so you'll save a week at least. Still not good, but better than nothing.
If you cannot wait, you could open up the phone and put the phone into EDL mode and unlock and flash it. Look here for info about this option

Problem is fixed!
Thanks to all of you guys. I was able to flash the Chinese stable ROM through test point/edl method with the help of a technician. Its BL is still locked & I am running the latest Chinese Stable ROM.

Did the technician open the back panel to perform the EDL or just straight away flash?

He opened the back panel.
Only China official rom can relock
Other version such as EU/INDIA/GLOBAL,after unlock BL you can't relock again, I have see this information in other post.

I think this is the best way to solve your problem,but still have to wait for applying BL unlock,after that you can start the second flashing.
Hey man I have the same problem. Except I cannot wait to unlock the bootloader because there is no account associated with my phone right now.
So I wanted to ask you to point me in the right direction. I can do the testpoint connection myself in order to go to edl mode.
What I want to know is if I can flash using just MiFlash tool or I need some other mi account or software?
Thank you!
Hello. I flashed Global ROM over European ROM. my phone bricked, system and recovery is destroyed, I have only access to fastboot. I tried to unlock it and mi unlocker tool says I need to wait about 120 hours. My question is, will it unlock after that period time even when the phone is not in use and turned off? Because I don't want to open the back and pay for EDL flashing. Thanks.

As far as I know it should unlock OK. I personally haven't done this, but there are accounts on these forums of others who successfully unlocked the phone after the wait period in the same circumstances as you. If you were going to have problems you wouldn't have got as far as getting the wait period.

Your bootloader locked itself when flashing? Or you ticked to lock bootloader?

I flashed it via XiaoMiTool v2. It was OTA Package. And now when I successfully booted into Global ROM, I can't flash back EU ROM like Global before. I had all the time locked bootloader.
Hey guys, this is my first xiaomi device and i would like to know, after unlocking the bootloader, do i still get OTA updates from xiaomi like normal, and if i do, can i update like normal without any complications. I am on Mi 11 Global, due for unlock in 48 hours
Of course!

That's a relief.
If i may, a related question:
When unlocking the bootloader with the unlock tool, will the phone be factory reset? Apps and settings gone?
I ask because I don't want to waste a whole week setting my new phone up just for it to be erased when the unlock is finally available next Wednesday.

Yes, everything gets wiped. However, you need to be using the phone in order to unlock it after the 7 day period. If not you'll get an error saying you need to use the phone more, and then you'll have to wait longer.

Ok, thanks for the clarification. That's annoying but I guess I can use the phone for certain basic things while I wait.

I have the same situation, did you get the updates automatically?
My friend flashed Indonesian fastboot Rom in indian RN10 Pro Max and locked the Bootloader, now he is trying to add acount and device to unlock it again but if fails everytime.
An error shows "Couldn't add. Device basic data verification failed"
Please see the attached screenshot.
Do you have any clue how to solve the issue?
you were should use only format data not all & relock.
There is three .bat orders:
one with erasing user data.
one with keep user data.
one with format and relock.
In your case you have to unlock it again.
Can't unlock, can't add account and device. Always shows the error mentioned in the post.
I had to abandon my previous xiaomi phone just for this reason. Accidentally locked the bootloader and couldn't unlock it ever. "The find device storage corrupted, your device is unsafe now".
Couldn't add miui account.

You did the same? I mean flashed another region's rom and locked bootloader?
My friend told me that he did the same in his Redmi Note 8 and then re-unlocked and flashed stock regions's rom, it was fine for redmi 8 so he did this in RN10 Pro too.

I actually did worse. I was on non-miui Rom then flashed the Fastboot without unticking the lock option. Guess what though the sensors of my MI5 is all okay nothing works due to wrong persist file.

Could you please share how to flash? since bootloader is locked cant flash anything.
Maybe you did not get my point, we are stuck in another region's ROM with locked bootloader.
Try find Xiaomi repair support center and tell them to help you flash official Indian ROM for you.
You can boot into the system, and the device said it's locked and secure, so it's not hard brick. Should be fine for them to help out, if the warranty is covered under the policy.
Be prepared for data loss, so you need to backup what you want to keep.
Don't tell them you flash a wrong region ROM. Just say the phone seems a bit strange, so want them to help clean flash and update official latest ROM.
