My friend has a stock unrooted neo v . He accidentally changed the screen unlock password and forgot ..... How to reset the password ?
How to start recovery menu in stock Rom ??
try again and again. after a fixed attemptes may be 10 or 15 it'll show option for forgotten password. you'll have to enter your email id (gmail) to reset it.

and there is no recovery in stock
I have tried this but after few attempts a 30 sec waiting time comes then again the same thing ... no option for Google account
okay. try this.... u need to make 20 wrong attempts in a row... (i.e. also wait for 30+30+30 secs in between).. after that the only way to unlock would be to signin to ur google account... may works.
Keep trying until u get the dialog which asks u to choose between '30s wait' or 'unlock with security question'..then choose next..then u'll have the option of choosing google account details..select and then click next
if u chose try again 30secs later..then select forgot pattern..and then google acount detail..select and next..

So the issue is that my device is requesting a Screen Lock Password as I pressed by mistake the lawmo lock 1234 option on the SIM unlock helper application, can someone help me with the leads on how to unlock it??
Pretty sure the only option is to reset at that point.

What do you mean by at the point, I have tried to flash the ROM, Factory Reset, Wiped the whole system using TWRP, but still same issue persists and it will keep asking me for the Lock Screen password!
is it lockscreen or sim lock?

If sim lock...how many tries left
??
Sincerest apologies as I did not do enough research before attempting to answer before.
2 things to try:
1) Default password is supposedly 1688. I have no way to verify this but saw it mentioned in a couple of threads.
if that doesn't work...
2) use file manager in TWRP to remove omadm and lockscreen apps.

I also noticed this bug on 6.9.9, not after reboot but after restoring the TWRP backup which was taken a day before.. unfortunately there is no "Forgot Password" option, what i did is deleted the "gatekeeper.pattern.key", in your case you have to delete the "gatekeeper.password.key", you can delete both, nothing will happen, u have to set you passwords again, thats it. :highfive:
You can acess it, with TWRP's file manager in the following path...data>system (make sure your system is Mounted)
And Please dont forget to hit Thanks
will try

google aroma file manager, download the zip, and flash it in stock recovery... and you can do that from there,
or you can just unlock your bootloader unofficialy, req for locking permission, and again unlock it via official method, everything is just same.
and please hit the thanx, incase you have forgotten in previous post

I had that one, too. You need to set your nickname for MIUI forum. Just log in to your account on the forum (http://en.miui.com/forum.php). You will be asked to choose the name. After you do so. Try to ask for unlock again. It should work now.
Actually i was logging in using my old account created before i purchased my device (created using email address) and account crated in my device was using my mobile no. Due to which i was unable to apply but now successfully applied using device account. Thank you for help
I get the same thing. with redirect to chinese page. since i'm using chrome browser, so i use chrome translate feature, so I the two different messages were translated. it keeps switching between the two pages, but managed to see the translated messages. They're currently upgrading system thus request of application is being put on hold/blocked.

haha. found out solution. you need to login with your account to MIUI forum app (search in Play Store) and login with your newly created account, you will need to create a nickname. Please ensure you get to a page in the forum app that says you've earned 4 experiences for your first login. then try again applying for unlocking permission.

3 devices per account maximum. Maybe you exeded your limit.
Well, I didnt know that about 3 devices limit per 1 account. I've unlocked 3 devices till now so that is the issue. THank you!
1st download miunlock tool,then extract and run it..,sign in .
2nd when it is shown that you r device is not supported by mi unlock,click go..and click mi unlock,and sign in there too
3rd the page will redirect to some page,that will ask you for a username,if you choose suitable username,the, sad emoji will not appear again,then you will be redirected to miui forum, which is in chineese,u have to manulayy make it in english,by clicking at top left corner,englisg forum,and then when english forum comes,click sign in and you r all set,
finally when you click go from mi unlock tool,and then miui unlock from official page...you will be redirected to your requet intended page......chilll bro

I saw this thread was brought back from the dead, and I just saw this post. Are you serious???
I thought it was 1 unlock for 1 device per month... and even that's pushing it. It's hard enough to get an unlock as it is and they just went and made it 5 times harder with this nonsense. The Note 4 may be my first and last Xiaomi phone...

Maybe something changed in the meantime,i don't know.
Apply for unlock
So i saw a lot of videos of people applying to unlock the bootloarder of thier Xiaomi phones by going to the unlock page click the blue unlock button and then they get redirected to put their account with phone number so they can receive one SMS from xiaomi when the unlock approval is done, i have a Xiaomi Redmi 5 plus from Mexico and when i try to go to this so called page to put my phone number and apply for unlocking i always go redirected to download the Mi Unlock Tool first.... i cant find any page now to put my number and wait for Xiaomi to send me that so called SMS.
My question is if i download the Unlock Tool and connect the phone in fastboot to try to unlock it just as the web page is telling me right now, am i going to have the phone plugged in until the process of unlocking finishes, the whole 15 days? (I know it sounds stupid but i am new to this)

First, applied for bootloader unlock successfully?
OK, now wait for their approval, ok.
Approved?
Then, DL MI_Unlock tool, try to unlock your device by signing in your mi account, you might get error or some hours of time to unlock your device, that means, you've to wait until few days to unlock, until then you just enjoy MIUI ??
hey guys,
when I place request for unlocking the bootloader, i get he text message but when i try to enter the code. It would say ip exceeded (message is in chinese ).I only tried once, and it says that and it still says that if i wait 24 hours. I tried using chinese proxy, but they fail to load the page. any other website loads perfectly, just this one doesn't. So, am I out of luck?
http://www.miui.com/unlock/done.html， can help you？

The last second in the upper right
did u try from pc
Hi,
Today, I took the following procedure to prepare my phone for sale:
1.) Using EMMA flash latest "stock' version
2.) Booting it up brought standard android welcome screen, asking for it to be set up
3.) In flashtool, I re-locked the bootloader
4.) On reboot, there is no "Xperia" boot screen anymore, but only a "powered by android". After a short period, I it asking me for a password to boot android (looks like the device encryption password prompt).
However, I have never set a password and I do not known how to continue from here.
Since the bootloader is locked now, I cannot flash with EMMA again.
Does anyone have any ideas how to boot into android again?
Try re-unlocking the bootloader
Did you restored the DRM-keys ?
