Problem = Couldnt verify device
Device = Redmi note 3
Rom = Stable global 7.2.3.0
Mi Account ID = 1555256607
Mi Unlock Version =1.1.0317.1_en
Use miflash to flash dev china and unlock it, after unlocked bootloader use fastboot flash method to combe back whatever rom you want
you can't unlock on Global ROM although the official guide says yes.
I tried it hundreds of times, changing this, changing that, and all failed
Just flash to China Dev ROM to unlock
I just tried 1 times and instant success
I tried with china developer rom 6.4.14 still same problem...

Did you tried to wipe cache from device before procceding to unlock?Did you used multiple accounts on this device?Be sure that you use the same account both device and on browser
I reset the mobile and tried only one account i have..
Have you logged in your miui account in the phone? Because the same thing happened to me, the phone needs to be logged in to your miui account, not only the computer program, but the phone also.
S i logged in and even downloaded one theme..
some people say it got solved by using the Redmi usb cable you got in your box. or using an england VPN.
This is a frustrating issue, I guess lot of people are facing this. I have got the permission few days back but am facing the same issue as OP. I have tried everything mentioned on this forum, MIUI forum and what not. I am currently on China Dev ROM, unfortunately it still does not work. One last thing which might be the actual issue is that even after getting permission from Xiaomi, it takes a few more days to sync this to their servers. I have read many people saying they gave up but when they tried after 5-6 days, it worked. So I am hoping it will work for me too in the next 5-6 days
I am too fed up of unlocking bootloader, i got the permision on starting of april still i cant unlock,.. now i am back global stable rom will try in few days.
On PC try this steps:
1.disable driver signature enforcement permanently
2.disable user account control
3.disable smart screen protection
4.disable any security solution like AV Suite,Firewall,even WIndows inbuilt firewall
5.check if your Windows Management Instrumentation service running
6.right click on MiUNLOCK exe and run as administrator
This is perhaps the most disturbing and irritating thing to have happened to me in my experience of rooting and owing Android smartphones. The process which seems simple is perhaps the most complicated and uncalled for. I have used phones form "Novice manufactures" to Super manufactures like Karbonn, Micromax, Samsung, HTC, Sony, LG, OnePlus. They all have been tricky but yet did the job as promised. Easiest was unlocking my Oneplus2, did it the very day i got my phone. HTC and Sony were tricky and a little complicated but once the process started, they were executed to perfection. I do not understand why Xioami had to screw up this big time. I got the permission but have tried everything possible; however, just not successful. Will wait for a while and get back to unlocking in a weeks time
i did got the permission yesterday tried on global stable rom its not happening will be flashing china stable rom and then moving to developer version via updater app, just wanted to confirm should i follow this guide http://en.miui.com/thread-235865-1-1.html
or is there any other way to go
i have 2 freakin accounts with unlock permissions tried each and every damn step out there on xda and miui forums tried 2 different computers still it says info on the device is different than the current account. god knows what on earth will unlock the bootloader
sorry to revive this old thread, but did you try after 5-6 days and did it actually work to unlock the bootloader with the official way?
This is the most irritating thing with Xiaomi. I've tried every guide and thread on MIUI forums but to no avail. Those idiots at MIUI forums are worthless. They only know to spam forums with "thank you" and "nice" instead of making productive discussion. Many people are facing the same problem with BL unlock and the administrators must be probably aware of the issue. What are they doing for so long? They should have released a new version of mi unlock tool already with the fix or whatever is the issue with their servers, I don't know. I just need to unlock my bootloader officially.
Have you guys checked if "fastboot" command works while in the fastbood mode? Try "fastbood devices" first, does it display the attached device successfully?

I tried a lot to unlock the bootloader of my phone but I am getting the error that says account on device is different from the current.
I have tried everything that I found on the MI Forum:
1. Flashing and trying to unlock through China Dev ROM
2. Going to i.mi.com and invoke find device and then unlock.
3. Relogin on mobile phone and login through Mobile Phone everywhere.
4. See if device is shown on i.mi.com
5. Tried on 3 different computers 2 physical and one VMware
6. Tried after 2-3 weeks
7. Mailed Xiaomi
None of the thing worked for me, I have posted regarding this multiple times on Mi Forum but the mods just send me links of things which I have already tried and when I say that it's not working they stop responding and then when I make a new thread they delete it.
Please help me and please don't ask me to unofficially unlock because if it fails then those idiots at Xiaomi will not fix it.

Have you tried flashing a different ROM? People here: http://en.miui.com/thread-226193-1-1.html had success by doing that. Try flashing the Dev ROM for your phone here: http://en.miui.com/download-301.html . If you try this and it doesn't work out, it's probably best just to unofficially unlock it.
Do you have access to a VPN? I've heard some people have had success logging into a server in Asia somewhere (taiwan, korea, china) and then using miflashunlock tool. I can't say I've had that issue. Do you use phone number to log into i.mi.com or do you use email? I've only ever used email to link my phone and the account, and it's always worked.

I am on Dev ROM
Got the unlock permission yesterday. I followed every method and suggestion that was floating around this forum before coming to write this thread.
I get the Current account is not bound to this device error.
Tried binding, I get the 86012 error.
Some people say wait for a couple of days, while there are people who are waiting for months and still failing to unlock.
Surprisingly there is no official post from Xiaomi if one should wait for a couple of days after getting the unlock permission.
I recently bought this device and I am at a loss here. I tried every possible solution out there. Except I haven't tried flashing a dev rom yet, but there are people who said you do not need a dev rom, just enable OEM unlocking from developer options and USB debugging and it does make sense. If the global ROM has the option for OEM unlocking then why do I need to flash a Dev ROM? Also where is the official post from Xiaomi which suggests that?
There are just people with their experiments and posting what helped them succeed. Is there anyone who has figured it out right? Help me understand what exactly am I missing here guys.
Edit: I also tried unlocking with lower versions of the unlock tool. Stucks at 50%. FlyVPN doesn't connect, and if it does, there's no internet connectivity, the websites won't load, internet won't work.
Hey, you're not alone bud.
Ive got my device unlocked after 15 days, 7 days after getting unlocking permissions.
Actually everyone faces this 50%stuck error with older version of mi unlock tool, with the new one everyone facing the error like 99% stuck or account not bound error.
What you have to do is just wait with the stable rom which your device shipped with, everytime you try to unlock your phone, you'll get failed for a Buncha reasons. The possible reason be like, account isn't bound yet, failed to verify device info, failed to locate device on i.mi.com etc..
So, when I got permissions, what I did was just do not rush to unlock my device, I know MIUI sucks but still, I got on pc after 2 days of permission then tried to unlock bootloader, it was failed with error failed to verify device information-50% stuck error. I too tried binding my mi account with the help of fly VPN but got the same error 86012 - Device not found.
Then, I just stopped trying to unlock my device every now and then, I've hit find my device option, enabled oem unlocking & USB debugging from dev settings, 5 days later, plugged in my device and hit unlock, it was successfully unlocked.
Eh, then you know TWRP+custom ROM'd it.
I suggest you to wait few more days, like 2-3 days, do not try to unlock your device in between, just wait.. 3 days later get on pc, use old unlock tool and try unlocking your phone. That's gonna works.
Again, do not try every now and then, give Xiaomi servers to sync up your device's details, as I read somewhere they update their server so slowly.
#That'sitall
UPDATE : Okay so i finally unlocked the bootloader finally. before the last try, i turned off the password/fingerprint lock and then it unlocked. everyone should try the same thing
I done every possible steps but nothing is happening! the bootloader unlock process always getting stuck at 99% and Account Bound error is coming on the PC and on the phone, "86012:*****" error showing on 'settings-additional settings-dev option-Mi Unlock status'.
I tried with 2 different Mi phone/account.
done with i.mi.com stuffs and find device, tried FlyVPN but there is no server of 'Shanghai"... etc!
Nothing is happeneing! I am a beta tester of MIUI 9 China, and see, i couldn't even unlock the bootloader yet! Wow! What a thing! Its been a week and so, still my bootloader is locked.
No help from Xiaomi.
I need a promising way to unlock. so help me.
See, I have unlocked three RN4 devices, none without the wait.
Had to wait 6-7 days for each one of them. There has been no luck for me in doing anything other than wait for 6-7 days after getting the permission.
But then, maybe something might work out for you.
The steps I tried or know of:
1. Being on the developer ROM is a must. Chances of unlocking bootloader from global stable MIUI are very slim.
2. Use old Mi Unlock tool. A quick google will land you there.
3. Don't change the accounts in the phone. You should be logged in with the account you got permission in.
4. Go to developer options and check "USB Debugging", "OEM Unlock" and one more option something sort of "USB Debugging Security".
5. Try to bind the account. It will yield a response with some code and Chinese text. Ignore it.
6. Use the original cable and use the ports on the back of the CPU.
7. Keep "Find my device" turned on. And log in to your account in your desktop and try locating your phone.
8. Now try unlocking.
I followed all the above steps I could find out from anywhere and I was able to do it.
In your case I do think you are either not in the developer build or you need to use the old Mi tool.

After removing fingerprints and password also - nothing doing. I had applied/received unlock permission from MI on Monday, and today is Wednesday, but it keeps showing "Could not unlock after 31 hours of attempt".. Dont know what that means since from my count, it is more than 42 hours
Hello,
Yesterday I purchased a Redmi Note 5 Indian Unit which is on MIUI 9.5 Global on 7.1.2 Nougat.
I wanted to flash lineage os for the phone as I truly hate MIUI skin. But unlocking a bootloader makes a big problem, when I tried to unlock the bootloader; It tells me to wait for 360 hours, I went through all the threads here, but none helped me, I tried the bypass method with 2 different accounts but that does not work as well, maybe because MI stated that users no longer need permission to unlock. Please help me to unlock my bootloader, I cannot live with a MIUI, and there is no point in using the phone because in 15 days I will have to format the device again after unlocking the bootloader, so please help me. I have Indian Unit of the phone, so if that is what makes the problem, please tell me.
Reply ASAP.
follow the thread NO ERROR 86006 in guides section. u just need a new account and 5 min of spare time.

I tried with two accounts that worked for me 2 weeks before. First account you bind and apply for bootloader unlocking. After that, make sure your device is identified in mi cloud web. Find my device option. And after you got 360 hours wait. Create a new account and login into it in phone. Go back to bootloader and now it will unlock. I hope this method will work now.
Apparently I have bought Redmi 5 plus (MPEG7) which was locked with Mi Account or what. The phone works normally, but I cannot add my Xiaomi Account because it gives me some error I don´t remember now.
Tried to update the firmware manually, didn´t help. So I decided to do factory reset, and then, soon after the set up screen I connecet to wifi, my Xiaomi got locked. It says I need to sign in on account which was previously been there.
The guy who sold me this phone, aware me of this, I should not do factory reset because this will happen, but I thought If there is no Mi Account on this phone I am good to go.
Luckily I found local repair shop who helped me to revive this phone by bypassing Mi Account somehow. I can use it with my Gmail account and I still can´t add my Xiaomi Mi Account.
So here goes my question now, how much I can do about that here. Unlocking bootloader and installing custom recovery would help me here. But the thing is I can´t enter my Mi Account on my phone, so that means no unlocking bootloader for me, at least nothing officially.
So my questions goes. Is there any way to unlock bootloader without having MI Account on the phone?
And before I forgot, if I don´t unlock the bootloader, and the phone stay in the same condition, will my phone lock itself again after I update it to MIUI 11, once when the update is available?
For now it is on the latest MIUI available, 10.2 Stable, OEGMIXM
Thanks in advance

Hello!
I have a problem similar to this. And I've been looking for some answers on that. With the current state of the device, I have how to unlock the bootloader, and then install a custom recovery and rom? So far I have not found any answer that is favorable to me. Other than paying for the service.

As far I have did some further research, unfortunately for us there is no solution to this. Basically the phone is connected with the Mi Cloud servers. As there is no alternative to unlock the bootloader, other than the official way, if in any case we got to sign in our account on the phone, the phone will lock itself eventually.
The only solution is the person who owned the phone have to remove the phone from the Mi Cloud service.
I hope at least we will get MIUI 11 and the update will not lock our device again.
If you want to know more about this, I have created a thread on Mi Community forum, so you can check there, one guy tried to help me about this problem, but no success

Hello!
I am also getting help to solve the problem. But, it has been 25 days that after sending some photos of the device screens nothing happened regarding the unlock. That is, it remains blocked. I tried help from S-Unlock but showed no interest in solving the problem. I need to find another company or someone to unlock the device next to the server. Feel free to help me if you want.
