I've been stuck on this activation screen and it won't activate. Is there a way to bypass this screen? I've tried literally everything I could find online, but can't bypass it. Factory reset doesn't work and just boots up to this screen same with dialing numbers no effect. I have developer mode enabled with USB Debugging on and fastboot doesn't connect to device tried everything with the drivers and multiple computers with fresh install of windows/linux. Drivers from adb/fastbook program doesn't work, LG official drivers don't work, and PDAnet drivers don't work. Only thing that works is adb which can recognize the device and only fastboot doesn't recoginze device. I don't even know if the bootloader can be unlocked because it's locked on this phone. I actually have SuperSU on the device, but I can't access it to root the device the only thing I can access is settings. Virgin Mobile DDR LG Tribute 2 LS665 5.1.1 Lollipop

Is it because it's locked to a Google account? What screen does it get hung up on? Is it connected to the internet?

I had my phone unlocked and working with a custom ROM in the past, but after some problems I gave up and just relocked it and went back to stock. Now I'm trying to unlock it again and I'm running into some problems. I'm unable to get the identifier token to use with htcdev because whenever I go into the bootloader my phone is not recognized by adb. fastboot oem get_identifier_token leaves me with a waiting for device message, and adb devices returns an empty list. If I turn the phone on normally the device shows up then. To the best of my knowledge, I have all the necessary drivers. I have tried multiple USB slots, multiple computers (including the one I originally did the unlock on, when it worked fine), and have searched all around the internet and various forums for an answer. I've tried manually updating the USB drivers through device manager, but that did nothing. I have HTC sync installed as well. When I plug the USB cable in I sometimes get a device cannot be identified/has malfunctioned message. Device manager also shows a yellow warning triangle on my phone when in the bootloader. I'm on windows 8 currently, but I've tried it on a windows 7 pc as well with the same results.
tldr: adb doesn't recognize my phone while in bootloader, so I can't unlock it.
Thanks in advance for any help, I've tried everything I can think of.
okay so, i just got this phone. did all updates, enabled bootloader unlocking and made my mi account, downloaded the mi unlock tool and everything.
heres where the problem comes in.
everytime i try the button combination to get into fastboot, it works. but then when i connect my phone to my computer, the fastboot splash screen turns black with little text at the top saying "press any button to shutdown" or something like that. it just wont stay on the fastboot screen, its like its exiting fastboot mode on its own.
why does it do this, and what can i do to fix it?
note: i have downloaded all drivers and software to get this to work, and nothing seems to be coming to light.
please help me, i am very confused.
update: actually, it seems to be fine before i open the mi unlock tool. it seems that when mi unlock tool is not open, it stays in fastboot mode, but as soon as i open mi unlock tool, it just kicks me out of fastboot mode, and goes to a black screen with something at the top saying the exact same thing i mentioned earlier.
Turn on the phone go into developer settings and enable usb debugging, im pretty sure that's it

i already have enabled usb debugging. but for some reason, it won't just stay in fastboot mode.
was thinking about calling xiaomi and seeing what they have to say. because i cant find anything on this matter, so its probably just something im doing wrong. though it may be my version of windows. i have Windows 8.1. so maybe thats the deal?
this is stressful lol
If I'm not mistaken, you should only connect the phone in fastboot mode when the program asks, not before you open it

i know, i did that too. but the problem still persists... ill try some other time.
thanks for helping though
First off this is much better place to ask questions. When phone is running and you connect to pc can you access storage?
If not check drivers, try different usb cable, and try different usb ports.
If yes then can you access the phone via adb?
If not it is a pc issue probably drivers.
If so leave phone booted and connected then open unlock software. Once software is up and running go to terminal/command prompt and type "adb reboot bootloader" without quotes.
I don't think it is windows version but with Microsoft anything is possible. I still use windows 7 for all this stuff.
Had the same problem on my Desktop with Ryzen, i tried it on my laptop with Intel Celeron and it worked from the first try without any drivers installed. If you have AMD that might be the cause
Hello.
My personal experience says:
1 Install Drivers on the PC/Laptop.
2 Activate DEVELOPER OPTIONS
3 Accept O E M Unlock
4 Allow usb debugging
5 Shut down Wi-Fi and use only DATA in order to connect - verify the device to the Mi account you have. When connected, press "understood" or ""accept"" (however it pops up).
6 Connect the phone to the PC/Laptop
7 After being connected, shut down the phone and put it in FASTBOOT. Make sure your PC ""reads"" your phone. Do it through command line/power shell, and make sure it shows up as alphanumeric in command line (i hope you know what to type - e.g fastboot devices)
8 Download and use the mi unlock tool (preferable Versions 2.....). Connect through this tool to your Mi account
9 Ask for permission to unlock // unlock your phone if days-hrs have passed. Ignore any pop-up message/warning and go on.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTES:
A. The phone must be recognized from the PC as ADB INTERFACE (in device manager) both in normal and Fastboot modes. Any other case is waste of time.......
B. Use a good cable and have the mobile charged!
C. In case you have another (older) device connected to your account, disconnect-delete it or else you will end up stuck with a ""cannot unlock message""
D. The process will not work if your PC runs some Win 10 versions as well as if built with RHYZEN PROCESSOR. Prefer PCs running win 7 or 8.
E. You must have DATA connection available or else you will not be able to connect-verify the phone to/through your Mi account !!! it is a new (dual function) fail - safe procedure from xiaomi!!!
F. Make sure you have the correct drivers installed to avoid a brick - bootloop etc
Hope it helps!
Gathered from my own experience!
To summarize: The xiaomi imposes too much rodeo and much time spent of the user to just "try" to unlock a simple bootloader, better to change of apparatus and to be happy with the practicality. lol
Hi,
I have an E5823 from a friend (sounds dodgy but is for real).
*. Phone is from Sweden and boots up with a 3 logo
*. I cannot enter recovery no matter what combinations of power and volume buttons i use
*. None of the codes (like *#*#7378423#*#* or *#06#) work
*. i don't know if the bootloader is locked or unlocked and cant find out.
Can anyone suggest any steps please?
have you tried using adb and fastboot from a pc?
I am trying but i cant get adb devices to recognise the phone. All drivers are installed. I suspect USB debugging is not switched on
However I cant into settings to turn on USB debugging mode. The phone is locked. I've bumped into the android FRP i think. My friend tried various accounts to unlock. No luck. I was his last resort to get the phone up and running again (i know this sounds suspect but it's for real)

Hi. Did you ever get this resolved? I am facing the same problem with my brothers phone. I can't get into recovery with any key combo and I can't get in to settings because it's locked and he forgets his PIN.
No. But i found a few YouTube videos that show you how to get around FRP
Hello, today my phone suddenly started to hang and i rebooted it (ROG Phone 1). After the reboot, i got the "Encryption unsuccessful" screen.
Is there any chance to bypass this screen, or save any data that is left on this phone?
The Bootloader is unlocked, but there is no TWRP. My Laptop says it cannot recognize the phone when plugging in the USB cable. Fastboot works fine but it looks like adb does not work. ANY CLUE would be HIGHLY appreciated!

It seems that you will have to perform a factory reset. Have you backed up your data to Google Drive?

Fastboot deals with phone's bootloader, whereas ADB deals with phone's Android OS. Two completely different things
ADB will only work if USB Debugging got enabled in phone's Developer options.
So i guess there is no way to recover the phone in any way....
Except of course full wipe and rip
It all happens because I wanted to install android 14 with the tool called android flash tool, what happens is that the bootloader was blocked, and I did not activate the OEM unlock option, in the process of android flash tool I put my phone in fastboot mode and start the process of installing android 14, the tool unlocked the bootloader and I started the process, I downloaded the entire image, but there came a point where at the time of installing it the device rebooted and did not turn on again, I investigated on xda and it must be because the above mentioned did not enable the oem unlock option, now what happens is that when i connect the device to the computer and do the combination to enter fastboot mode or just press the power button, the computer makes a sound, as if it It will detect it, but that's all it does, it doesn't detect it, can it be revived or should I buy another phone?
Maybe make sure you got the right driver installed? My pixel used to do the same **** when I tried to plug it in the computer. Go into device manager and look in the portable device section. Or the universal bus section. If it's making a noise it's detecting it in some way just not the way you want. I had to uninstall one of my USB drivers completely to get it to work. Did you have USB debugging enabled or a screen lock?

It only detects it in the device manager as "Usb Serial Device (COM3)" and that is if you keep the power button pressed, but I just let go and it no longer detects it
Something is not right here.
There is NO tool that will automatically unlock the bootloader if OEM unlocking is disabled

Exactly. I guess Google Service Center is the only way to go.
