Hi All,
I bought a Xperia tablet z in China without knowing that devices in China do not come with any google services apps and thus I cannot login to google account and use gmail app etc.
I tried installing the Google Service Framework.apk directly and it says "no connection to server".Then I did some research online and I found that I should install Google Service Framework.apk by going into recovery mode.
However, after an hour of attempts on booting the device into recovery mode by holding on the Vol+ and Power button, there's no response.
Am I doing something wrong with booting into recovery? Should I unlock bootloader (which I have no idea what this is and how to do it)?
I also saw other posts with guides to CWM-Based Recovery, CM, unlock bootloader etc. I am new to an Android tablet and have no idea what those are. What should I do in order to get google service apps running?
Many thanks!!
Looks like there is no recovery for locked bootloader for now for XTZ. You have to unlock your bootloader (warranty loose etc) to flash Gapp package with google app in it via recovery.
Read before making your decision about what the pro and cons unlocking BL.
I don't know if there's another way for installing these apps, wait others answer maybe...
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 already try many time also fail when it 50%
i also already login mi id on the i.mi.com and find my phone is online~
how to solve it??

gt good developer rom for me? i using note3 snapdragon
same problem here, i tried to sync with mi cloud but still it failed. using latest dev rom 6.12.8.
Be patient and try everyday. It takes time for your details to be updated on their servers. You can also contact their customer support team and ask them for help.
I also faced some problem for many days. At last I deleted my old account and apply with new account and unlocked in seconds. You my try it. After unlocking you may switch to old account.
But first install dev from.
Hello. I have a problem. I have Xiaomi Mi8, which was sent back on a warranty, because it just didn't powered on one day. It was sent from PL to China, they sent it back after a month and from this time I had some issues. The phone came back with unlocked bootloader. I couldn't use Google Pay to use contactless payment, couldn't install Netflix for example, and other general problems caused by unlocked bootloader appeared.
Today I wanted to change that, so I entered fastboot mode, connected phone to PC, and entered "fastboot oem lock". It said OKAY, finished, but then phone was stuck in a bootloop.
In recovery, it says that "This MIUI version can't be installed on this device". Wiping data doesn't help.
I wanted to re-flash it with Global ROM, but Mi Flash says "Error: FAILED (remote: Erase is not allowed in Lock State)"
I wanted to unlock it using Mi-Unlock but this fails also. It ends with "Current account is not bound to this device. Add your account and device in MIUI's Settings Developer options Mi Unlock status" message.
I cannot enter settings because phone will not boot up. I read about authenticating with account_auth.exe on c mi com/thread-2173190-1-0.html (remove spaces, sorry but I cannot post links yet). I logged in, but then instead of "Unauthorized Xiaomi account" I have "Request failed" message and I cannot click "Apply Bind".
I'm running out of ideas. Phone will not boot, it can't be flashed, what else can I do other than replacing main board? Please help.
I had the same problem with Redmi Note 7 pro I have changed from china version to India version but I had some security issues with some app as the Bootloader was open since I flashed India version I did as you did from cmd I loced the Bootloader so the MIUI was blocked and phone was bricked I had to use boxes software then go back to china version again then setup new mi account with new E mail and different SIM then I was able to flash new global indian version of MIUI 12.5 but unfortunately I lost my IMEI 1 but lucklly had saved my Data on Google account ,so you should use boxes software to use your phone again!
