I received the unlock permission 3 days ago. As instructed, I have bound my MI account with the device under developer options. Still the unlocking abruptly stops at 99% stating "Current account is not bound the device". This is frustrating :crying:. Now I have no idea what to do to resolve this problem . For reference I have attached a screen shot showing I successfully bound my Mi account to the device. Also there is no other device in my account. Any help will be appreciated except "Wait for XX days / weeks" .

Mi customer support representatives have no idea what a bootloader is and what unlocking a bootloader means. I called them twice, everytime they thought I'm stupid enough to locked out of Mi account and lost access to my phone. At the third time I asked for their senior representative. After a long explanation he somewhat understood and informed me that they are not supposed to give any information regarding unlocking bootloader as instructed by their higher authorities. Still I pressed him for solution, finally he told me to go to service centre and pay applicable charges to unlock the bootloader. At this point I lost my patience and I asked him "First my device is under warranty. Secondly if the fault is not from my side then why hell should I pay? If Mi wants us to pay money for unlocked bootloader then it should have clearly mentioned in the official website. Why all these fiasco? Why harass customers for no reason?". They replied to that by disconnecting the call .

change to developer rom version 7.2.16 using updater app. now when you are on developer rom you would get an ota for latest version, update to latest developer version and then try. It worked for me.
I was facing the same issue for weeks too. I was getting the 86016 error repeatedly. Finally, someone suggested this: https://www.technobuzz.net/redmi-note-3-unlock-bootloader-couldnt-verify-device/. Method 1 worked for me at the first try. Please don't waste your time by changing your ROM without trying this. You can thank me later! 8)

ok guys, I just unlocked my bootloader on mido (Redmi Note 4x/ 4 Snapdragon). What i did was use an older version of Mi Unlock tool. This is the version: miflash_unlock-en-2.2.406.5_2
Go to this thread to get the above version of miflash tool: http://en.miui.com/thread-204866-1-1.html
Use this version and simply connect your device in fastboot boot mode, login using your MI account (with unlock permissions of course) and then click on unlock once it recognizes your phone.
This did the trick for me today. I already had unlock permissions on my MI account but I was getting the infamous 86012 error when associating my device with my MI account.
With this version of the unlock tool, I was able to unlock my bootloader without binding the device with my account.
Good luck unlocking your phone!

I didn't even have to do that. Just followed the instructions from Method 1, and it worked. There was no need to flash a developer ROM or an older MiFlash Tool...
Mi spport is a joke
Watch this Mi forum thread and read the original post for more details and see how ****ty their support is : Mi forum thread
Did u tried to unbind your phone from the account, delete account and then make a new one?
I am not able to get unlock permission. Its been a month. What to do?
You probably already have, did you bind your phone with your account in developer options? If so just run unlocking tool.
[UPDATE] Successfully unlocked bootloader today
I was able to unlock my bootloader in the morning today. After a week long heated arguments with Xiaomi customer support finally I'm feeling happy to be free.

Some days ago I flashed latest Global Stable on my Kate just for cleanup and I faced the same problem, but the funniest part: even with that error at 99%, MiUnlock opened my bootloader.
Boot in fastboot, connect the phone to your pc and check your bootloader status.

Because when u flashed using miflash it did not relock your bootloader and that's why it's still unlocked it happened to me 3 times so this legitimate.

No, MiFlash blocked my bootloader, I made sure the program did it, I wanted to close my bootloader, after the flashing process I checked it and it was blocked (from fastboot "device unlocked : false".
My Unlock behaves strangely sometimes with Kate devices, in some spanish group, another person commented the same, 99% > error > but bootloader unlocked.

There is no other reason than your internet connection.
U need working internet connection to verify your device while unlock.

Hope you got permission from Xiaomi to unlock your account/phone. Then the problem next is just need to map the account for unlocking from phone.
For this follow the instructions below..
Go to Developer settings -> Enable OEM unlocking and also go to Unlock status -> then 'Add my account' for unlocking. (You should see toast message that account is added)
The next painful part is you have to wait 72 hours after adding account. Then try unlock tool (Ver.2) to unlock it.
Hope it helps!

- OEM Unlocking
- USB Debugging
- I have permission to unlock in my account
- Find Device and Sync are activated
After reading a lot of posts here and in the MIUI forum during the past 4 days, l have already tried the following suggestions:
- 5 different versions of MI Unlock tool 1.0, 1.1, 2.2, 2.3, 3.3 (latest)
- Global ROM Stable and Dev (v9.8.5.0 and 8.4.26)

- Logging in and out with account, turning on and off Sync
- VPN with Chinese Server
- Logging with my phone number in the phone and in the Unlock Tool, also with account ID, also tried with email
- Disabling Driver Signature Enforcement in Windows

A week after I got the permission, XIAOMI Global and Malaysian support told me that you can unlock right after getting the permission, that waiting is not necessary at all.
Problem is that my error is not the same as other users that had to wait to fix it. The MI Unlock tool says I need to bind my account to the device, and when I try to do so from DEVELOPER OPTIONS I get the error "Couldn't verify, wait one minute or two and try again"

I did try that but never waited for long time to log in again... there is one thing that might be related or not... MI Cloud can not find my device in the map, the option is turned on in the phone, sync works fine, google maps and GPS also.. but MI Cloud can't find my device for some reason despite saying it is online...
So the trick here is that you do not unlock the bootloader that way.
Head over to the official Miui site to apply for unlock permission:
http://en.miui.com/unlock/
Sign in with your Miui account, needs some extra stuff like reason why u want to unlock bootloader fill everything up,eventually they will send to your phone number a message telling you that you have the permission. Go to their site again and they will redirect you to download the mi unlock tool. Follow the steps given and done!(pray to god everything will go right cause i unlocked mine in about 10 attempts cause of dumb errors)

Kalimera! Thanks for stopping by but your suggestion is the first thing I did after taking the phone from the box... you can read in my post "I have unlock permission in my account"
Oh didnt notice sorry. If you already have the permission why do you need to bind your account?Fyi that settings did not work for me neither nor for my friends so i didnt even give it a try. I just installed the mi flash tool to my windows 10 and thats it if i recall

Ok thats very weird because i was not asked such step from the tool. I honestly didnt even bother to try again and bind my account via that setting. Idk man good luck, you know how chinese people think;thats right we dont know thats why they are weird sometimes.

did you have to try for weeks before you could unlock the bootloader or was it easy for you?
I actually received the message in about 6 hrs, and then immediately unlocked the bootloader. No bind or similar stuff was asked. Hmm in your miui account you have provided all of the info you were asked?

Yeah all info provided (email, phone, same nickname as in the forum, etc etc).
I got the unlocking permission in less than an hour but I got the error from the very first time I tried unlocking...
I found other people with the same problem in the forum but no solution more than waiting for an uncertain length of time
Xiaomi made it very painful to unlock a bootloader and MIUI is full of bloatware, flashy animations and useless features, **** ROM in my opinion. I think I will get rid of the phone and move to another brand. I don't feel like buying their products anymore
I absolutely agree with you, while the hardware is more than vfm i didnt like their MIUI os from the beginning thats why i instanlty changed it. Idk maybe try reinstalling the mi flash tool thingy or downloading an older version of it, that could help. It might help if you rollback in an older miui aswell? Like MIUI 8 or maybe try getting a developer rom and try again and tell me if that worked.

4 accounts, I think the problem is with XIAOMI servers, the info doesn't update quick enough and the MI Unlock tool doesn't see enough info to determine that the phone you are trying to unlock is actually yours. That would explain why you have to wait for some time until it works but the official support says you can unlock right away after you get the authorization to unlock. Super stupid from Xiaomi's side, to create a server dependent unlocking process and to have slow servers that make everything difficult
Hmm maybe you can ask sime help from the shop you brought it from? Since you didnt unlock bootloader, the guarantee is still valid

Thank you both.
However I have already been able to unlock the bootloader, :laugh: install twrp and the new 8.11.7 keeping the bootloader unlocked and twrp as it should be, all using same PC and my Mi Account, how I did:
1- Ask the SIM card and authorized account Mi of a friend
2-Factory restore from my F1, I introduced the sim card from the friend, and started the F1 with my friend's account (without the factory restore did not work)
3 - I opened Miunlock on my PC, with my friend's account, and tried to unlock the bootloader, did not allow saying that I had to spend 72 hours after the last bootloader I made, but I was happy because it no longer gave the unknown error -1
4 - I returned the SIM to my friend, and put my SIM, having finished the session of the friend's account and log mine, reboot
5 - I opened the Mi unlocker, I loaded my account, and voilá!! unlocked the bootloader normally.....them twrp, and then flash 8.11.7.zip over twrp
I conclude that when we flash to 8.11.2 by Miflash, and the bootloader has blocked, the Mi unlock was confused and with some error,loging my frind account free of issues, the error has been corrected, so i can re-use my account normally, and unlock bootloader.

Thank you both.
However I have already been able to unlock the bootloader, :laugh: install twrp and the new 8.11.7 keeping the bootloader unlocked and twrp as it should be, all using same PC and my Mi Account, how I did:
1- Ask the SIM card and authorized account Mi of a friend
2-Factory restore from my F1, I introduced the sim card from the friend, and started the F1 with my friend's account (without the factory restore did not work)
3 - I opened Miunlock on my PC, with my friend's account, and tried to unlock the bootloader, did not allow saying that I had to spend 72 hours after the last bootloader I made, but I was happy because it no longer gave the unknown error -1
4 - I returned the SIM to my friend, and put my SIM, having finished the session of the friend's account and log mine, reboot

Thankyou for your reply brother but it didn't work for me new account showing me to wait 72 hours so, i should probably wait.
Wait 72 hour is ok. My friend already unlocked by using that way.
The exact same situation i have been stuck at!!
XDA truly be the abode of Android.
I wasn't hoping to find this issue with anyone else as such until this moment!
I have been awfully stuck at this 8.11.2 build with a locked bootloader without even being able to update to the later versions!
The mistake was that i carelessly moved on to flash even without noticing the default was set to lock the bootloader.
Things i tried:-
-trying the conventional method to unlock which, as mentioned by my friend above, ended up with an unknown error-1 screen after all the way up to 99%.
- deleted my mi amount and made a new one with the same sim... Even added the account to device and used as new.
When i tried to associate the device with this account i recreated, a message pops up saying " can't add any more accounts to this sim".
- As tragic it may seem, i settled for a user experience with the stock mi bloatware... Until i realised if the "sim" is the problem, why shouldn't i try a new sim.
- Grabbed my mom's sim card, went on to create an mi account linked to that sim, apparently found out that i had already created one for her but never used to root her device ( redmi 1s).
-I slipped the sim card into my phone, added her account, and even associated the device to that account of hers.
-Eagerly fired up the unlock tool, smashed the unlock button impatiently, to find out a message that asked me to wait for 72 hours until the next try.
- now i am at my 42 hours remaining Mark, and not even sure if it will work.
So what do u ppl think? Is it worth the wait ( like ot or not i have to) ? Or am i better off grabbing a different sim card which doesn't have an mi account.!?!? And will i be asked to wait regardless of whether a sim had or didn't have an mi account before.
Strange! I have locked the bootloader a couple of times by mistake. And I didn't have to wait to unlock it again. As soon as logged into MiUnlock tool using the same account, it unlocked the bootloader within a couple of seconds.

so did you login to your device using password or the phone number? and even in the unlock tool, what did you login using?

fired up the mi unlock tool,
i had already added the account to the device and associated with it.
Tried a few minutes ago, to unlock the device.
Unlocked!!!
No resets no nothing, just had the new account running for weeks now.
Thank you ppl...thank you.
Back to rom frenzyyy!
create new mi acount, add, sync, use mi unlock tool and wait for 72 hours.
I think the people who had problems, were the people who lock the cell with the beta rom, not with stable rom...

I don't know whether the method you are adopting will work but with your sim it will not work since the request was given when the other sim was in. You will need your son's sim at the time of unlock.
Hello,
Suddenly, just 1 month after the end of warranty my Xiaomi Mi Play stopped working showing "The system has been destoryed" message on recovery. I have read some articles and I have found that this could be fixed by flashing the ROM, but my problem is that bootloader is locked and I kept in this way for security purposes.
I know I can use the target app (https://c.mi.com/thread-2262302-1-0.html) to unlock it, but it also need some steps at android level (per attached image), which I don't have access anymore.
So my question is: add my account for unlock the unlocking permission is something which is at phone or at account level?
I mean, if it's something at the phone level there is no way to fix, but if it's at account level, I may fix the issue by using another Xiaomi device.
Can someone please clarify to me, or may I have any hints please?
Regards,

Mhhh.... it seems something related on phone:
https://c.mi.com/thread-1857937-1-1.html
So, probably phone is bricked and there is no way to recover except than support center.
Hello,
I ran into the same issue a couple of months ago. I was EU rom using mi flash and accidentally selected the 'clean and lock' option. There are a few ways you could try to fix your phone:
1. If you have a mi account that is registered to the phone, you could login to mi unlock using that account and try unlocking the bootloader and then flash using mi flash.
2. If you don't have a registered mi account then your options are pretty limited. You could try a go to a service center but like me there might not a one in your region. The only other option edl test point. There are many people, mostly russian or indian, who have an authorized mi account and are selling their services. A quick youtube search and you'll find many options. They remotely connect to your computer and use their authorized account to unlock your bootloader and flash the factory rom. They usually charge anything from 25 to 30 usd.
There is a way you could apply for authorization from mi but judging from the many forums it is vary rare to get a reply let alone get authorized.
Unfortunately there is no other way to Unbrick your device until now.

Hello,
Thank you for your reply.
My Mi account was registered on the phone, but once I login to "mi unlock" and try to unlock, I got the error attached.
I am suspecting some operations on the phone were required in advance.
I mean, I have never applied for my Mi account to being able to unlock or something, is there a specific page where to do now (e.g. on a differenr Xiaomi phone, online, etc.)?

Hello,
I have checked on other forums but it doesn't seem that Mi Play has an edl test point.
Or I couldn't find the correct information...
Hello everyone,
I want to unlock bootloader of an old xiaomi redmi note 4 but i am having few problems.
⇒In the mi unlock status while using mobile data and clicking "Add account and devices" i am getting Error code 20091 in MIUI v11.0.2.0
So i downgrade the rom to MIUI Global 8.5.8.0 (NCFMIED) and now it's showing couldn't verify wait a minute or two .
(note: In the unlocking process i have also enabled OEM unlocking and USB debugging)
Although I know that it is crucial to bind the account with the device for unlocking process but I used the MI Unlock Tool to see what it shows.
⇒I used MI Unlock Tool version 6.5.406.31 And updated my driver but the unlocking process failed and showing me this—

I have searched about it in google but there is very little information about it and none are helpful.
Also I have post this problem on MI Forum but so far no answers.
Can someone please give a solution to this problem.

How did you downgrade with a locked bootloader?
Does the account number match yours?

1) By connecting edl testpoint and using MiFlash I have downgraded my rom.

So you have a special account otherwise it is the account of the one who uses the EDL mode which is necessary to unlock the bootloader.

Normally to flash in EDL mode with Miflash, the account must have a special authorization that only Xiaomi repair centers or some developers have.

I have watched a youtube video about this process and there he didn't mention anything about having special authorization for EDL mode flash for this device.
So what does it mean that only someone from Xiaomi repair center can unlock bootloader for this device?

So you found or stole a xiaomi with the bootloader locked, you flash it in EDL mode and voila?
One example among many others.

Thanks for answering my questions so far.
This phone is not originally mine. My big brother broke his phone and one of his friend gave this phone to him and now that he has bought a new phone he no longer need this phone and gave it to me and when I got the device it was fully functional but I hate MIUI so I decided to use custom rom on it. That's why I was looking for a way to unlock the bootloader.
It is possible that my brother friend got the phone from someone shady who stole it or found it and the original owner locked it.

Yes when I got the phone it was fully functional running on MIUI v11.0.2.0 and when I tried to unlock the bootloader with official methods I was getting errors so I tried to solve this problem by watching youtube tutorials but none of them work except for one video where he showed this error problem can only be solved by downgrading the rom and to downgrade I need to connect EDL testpoint for this device. But after downgrading the rom to MIUI Global 8.5.8.0 (NCFMIED) another problem occurs now it's showing couldn't verify wait a minute or two.
This is the youtube video but it's in Hindi language.
If you click on the link I recommend you to skip to 17 second's

You must sign in,preferably with your email address or the flash code.
But if your account does not correspond to the one indicated in the first post means that the owner has not deleted this phone from his account (which is done in the event of a sale) and without his identifiers the unlocking is impossible.
