Let me tell you. Go to " https://i.mi.com/ " first and log in with your mi account and see if it can find your phone. I was facing the same issue of getting stuck at 50% while unlocking and I tried this yesterday. From the site, a sms was sent to the registered phone number to verify device. After verification, I tried unlocking officially and it got unlocked!

Recommend dev rom/ beta rom and yes you can use your permission months back

I've unlocked the phone but of no use. Can't switch Rom, fast boot and recovery reboot are same as locked. Horrible. What's the use of unlocking with permission and so on?

What is the exact and complete error message when you attempt the unlocking process?
If you put your phone into flashboot mode and use ADB, do you get anything from the command "Fastboot devices"?
If you're getting "Account is different from the one on the device" then it's an account issue and can be solved on the i.mi website by making sure you only have one phone assigned to your account.

Y'all can check my post. Also follow the thread and you might get unlocked.

[HELP] Phone reboot every 5-10 seconds (Kenzo)

I encountered this problem about 2 weeks ago
I have flash every ROM (Official, MIUI based custom ROM, and AOSP) including in fastboot mode
and only CM12.1, CM13 and RR survived from random reboot
I won't use both CM13 and RR because its RIL
Now i used CM12, but I have super fast draining battery
My phone will die, even in standby, because Android OS and System used battery more than SOT
When I checked it, the CPU always stay awake and won't enter deep sleep, so my phone always went heating even in standby (screen turned off)
The only problem I would fix is the random reboot issue when I used MIUI and other Custom ROM I had mention above
This is driving me crazy. Does it hardware problem or something?
If not, how to fix fast draining battery from CM12.1?
Sorry for my bad english

If it's down to some ROMs being a WIP then perhaps the best option is to go back to stock?

Hi, i'm having the same issue as yours, have you try to send for repair? Xiaomi centre at my place refuse to repair it as mine from china set, any luck at your place?
Edit- mine was unlocked officially, don't think it related to this issue as it was working without any problem previously,the last thing i did before this happened was making a call in lte before it turned off suddenly, then heat up a lot and keep on rebooting,

I'm on aosp when this happened, maybe it is hardware related,
Will try to send it to repair shop nearby and hope they can do something about it, it's only a month and now it's completely unusable, maybe just a bad lemon unit

Goldway store, aliexpress...I am still in the protection period so i think it won't be difficult to obtaining a refund...But still i prefer to fix it...
I think is a hardware problem though...i think it has something to do with the energy or temperature managment or circuitry...

Should be hardware problem and there's nothing we could do i guess, there's a few people affected already.. problem with this model and we're the first.. so sad. Luckily my nexus 5 still going strong despite the screen shattered, even can see the circuit inside, showed the difference between brands quality.
Did someone with this problem can Instal CM13 ROM with fingerprint compatible?
because mine always stuck in Mi Logo and then can't enter TWRP until it re-unlocked and back to MIUI with Mi flash to able flash TWRP)
If not flash fastboot MIUI, the TWRP can't be installed even the phone have unlocked
WTH is going on with my phone

Try flashing global stable through MiFlash and tick the option flash all or equivalent.

Thanks Ivanlai,
What Exactly do you mean by your answer?
did you had this Problem on your Xiaomi Device?
had you manage succesfuly solving it?
my device is new and i dont want to do something that will harm the Warrenty.
I haven't had this situation exactly, but the reason I said to tick flash all is because I have bricked and bootlooped my device before.
By ticking the flash all option, it reduces the risk of some remnants of the previous ROM causing conflict.
Also, I tried several different global stable ROMs before I successfully unbricked my device.
As for warranty, I remember someone mentioning that a xiaomi customer service operator emailed them saying that rooting and flashing custom ROM would not void the warranty, but I would email them again on this issue just to make sure.

Thanks Ivanlai,
very strange what happening to my device.
reboots stopped (have no idea of what reason : recharge again from 5% battery, get into test mode (push 3 button for 10 sec': vol+, vol-, power).
but now other issue showed up : very lots of screen glitches, can use the phone like this, like some bad soldering inside.
first time i got into test mode, there were also screen glitches,
but now, whenever i get into test mode, downloading mode or the 3rd mode (with phone and cable picture), there is not glitchs at all,.
but after phone is starting - lots of screen glitches !!
i am lost
I also bought my Redmi 4 Prime from goldway store, do you know what is their return policy like?

Please help me, I deleted something from twrp now WiFi and bluetooth doesnt work!

I was trying to flash a new Oreo rom a while ago, then when i wiped the files that needed to be checked, i accidentally included cust and persist. When the rom was installed, it said that bluetooth isn't working with an X mark on the side(You know, those "this app is not working" popup) Then the phone restarted unexpectedly. I thought it was part of the process but when it booted, it restarted again. It was happening again and again, i was scared like heck.
I also tried opening/toggling wifi and bluetooth, when i opened/toggled wifi, it didnt work. Same goes for bluetooth.
Somebody please help me, i'm new to these options in twrp, i thought deleting/wiping cust and persist would really clean the system but i think i ended up breaking it. Please help me

Redmi 5 Plus stopped working after latest update

Hi
I received an update on my Redme 5 Plus las night. After installing it my phone has stopped working. I did see a message that was something like 'This update cannot be installed on this device', and prompted me to Reboot. Since then I am stuck on Reboot. I have tried factory resetting using the 'Wipe data' option as well. I also installed MI PC Suite, connected the phone to the PC and played around, nothing happens. Clicking on R.Flash says that the device is up to date.
I am now desperate, somebody please help. I have looking up on forums etc, but haven't been able to figure it out yet. The phone is only a month old, was quite happy so far.
Thanks

I never used mi pc suite, if you have your bootloader unlocked download fastboot rom and flash it through miflash tool. Also you can install a custom recovery like TWRP in fastboot mode and try any of the custom roms

Fake Rom on a MiPad 4 from AliExpress

I recently bought a MiPad 4 from AliExpress and it keeps stopping me from flashing my rom with TWRP. The Bootloader seems to be enabled out of the box, but I cant get it to recognize after the fastboot screen. Anyone have a solution to this? I've seen a few people post that they had the issue and they solved it when some other users posted the link to the same MIUI forum thread but the link to that seems to be dead. So I currently have no leads to how to clear the fake ROM.
The developer setting for "Mi Unlock status" is missing and I also tapping the MIUI Version doesnt bring up settings like the stock rom should.
Seems to be sandboxed for some reason, when i get into fast boot it just goes to a black screen that says "press any key to shut down". And when i flash it with MiFlash, it errors, and I just end up rebooting the MiPad 4.
did you find any fix? I'm facing the same problem

It's not sandbox, it just doesn't work with Win 10 or usb 3.0. In my case I have to use my old win 7 laptop to unlock.

Poco F1 MIUI 12 find device stopped unexpectedly boot loop

Just few days after installing miui 12, got this problem. The phone is stuck on a boot loop. If I pattern unlock the phone, I get a toast saying "find device stopped unexpectedly". Unfortunately, I don't have a backup. :crying:
Is there any way to save my phone? or may be get a backup?
I too experienced the same bug, i went to the official service centre to fix the issue. They reflashed the os but the same issue kept arising again and again after a day or two, the service center guys had no clue what's going on. At last I decided to unlock the bootloader and flash a custom rom. Now am using RR without any issue.

yeah, I am also in the same track but I am unable to make MiFlash Unlock tool to recognize my phone in fastboot mode. Adb does recognize, Mi PC Suite recognizes it but says phone software has to be updated. (Using latest MIUI 12).
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Use an Intel pc. Amd has issues with mi flash unlock too l. Run as admin. Turn off all anti virus/ firewall applications.
Having the exact same issue on my POCO F1, recently updated to MIUI 12. It was working pretty well up until 10 mins ago.
Battery went under 5% and the device went into ultra power saving mode, then restarted. Now every time I unlock the pattern, the toast pops up "Find my device..." and it goes into bootloop.
Now there isn't even a pop up, device immediately goes into bootloop.
bro, i just now facing this.. can you help me out
Well, MIUI 12 is not going good in poco F1.
If anyone who has not updated to MIUI 12, don't update the phone. Currently there are many bugs in the update
Long story short -
Some are unable to boot up the phone, some stuck in bootloop, some unable to use their passwords, some unable to set up new password, Second space not working, etc etc ...
I also updated to MIUI 12 and was unaware of the bugs.
But the device booted up and password (both fingerprint and face unlock) was working fine but I was unable to change it. Second space was working too. So I was happy that there is not much issue.
But then come the buggy part.
I started playing COD m after update and battery drained like hell 100 to 30 in 1.5 hour. I was shocked by this.
After charging I started to play again but this time (with battery issue) screen freezing happened and then happened at regular intervals. So the gaming experience on MIUI 12 was ruined.
Then I just find MIUI 9 for it and flashed it. (Ya, factory reset in this process too ?) But it is working fine now. Got fast charging module and custom thermal for gaming and it worked.
Currently no issue at all.
But I am still finding a custom kernel for poco F1 to overclock cpu and GPU (not able to find any till now).
Nearly every kernel is ment for MIUI 11 and 10 only. So I am digging deep for now to find a kernel for MIUI 9.
At last just one message - Don't update untill mi release a stable and bug free MIUI 12 version.
If MIUI 12 is working fine on your poco F1, either you are lucky or you have not encountered a bug till yet.
Without data loss, is this method come back to normal as before for poco f1 mobile?

If you don't want to loose your data, try flashing the rom using mi flash tool. But nothing can guarantee data security. You should back up your data regularly, waiting for a mishap or trusting on a single electronic device is just foolish, do make multiple copies of important data, if you want it to be secure.
I also have this problem. Updated my POCO F1 to miui 12 and it is in bootloop all the time. The bootloader is locked but I cannot unlock it now with no access to the device. How can I flash again a lower version?
If I don't mind losing the data how can I go back to previous version?
No brother, I encountered the same issues you mentioned. I stuck with MIUI logo loop after that I did a hard reset to mobile phone working condition.
