just wait 3 days. don't try because you will get similar errors, counting down. like 48 hours to unlock etc.
sadly 3 days rule is there.

Not sure, sometimes it takes ages to unlock bootloader on a Xiaomi phone. You better give it a go once you're free enough.
Try few days later..

it doesnt work, says i need to upgrade the software , so i assume that i must wait 72 hours, but it doesnt counting down, yesterday said 72 hours and today the same

How long is your xiaomi account registered? I've seen a lot of examples on MIUI China BBS. They're both short accounts. Or you've never used a xiaomi phone before, and that's just a wait of 72 hours

Yo, doesn't matter you still have the message or not.
You got the permissions and it's failing to unlock bootloader every time you try, right?
DL fly VPN from Playstore and run the app, choose shanghai server and go to additional settings > ki unlock status > you'll see an option like bound mi account, tap it and ignore if you get any errors.
Next, do no try everyday, just wait few days, like 5-7 days and try unlocking at the 5th day. Use latest unlock tool.
Every mi users who had unlocked their bootloader faced the same issue, heck even 21 days. I got mine unlocked after 10 days lol
So, do what I said and wait few days, you'll surely get your phone unlocked! :good:

Unlocker stuck at 99% while unlocking bootloader on RN4 (Snapdragon)

Got permission to unlock bootloader today. Been trying to unlock my device for the last 15 minutes, again and again I'm getting the message 'Current account is not bound to this device.'
Any solution for this?

try after 8 days, it will definitely unlock
Only took 5 days for me.. Try every day and after few days it will work. Patience will pay off..

You can try everyday.. Or just wait for a few days and then try because trying everyday and getting an error is frustrating!
7 days and counting.
still not unlocked.

Are you using the same mi account which has got the official permission on your phone? BTW i dont think you have to wait. i unlocked mine in seconds after getting the permission.

Yeah I only have one mi account to begin with. I got the permission within 30 mins but unfortunately the unlocker gets stuck at 99%

Hello me guys
After connecting to MIUI account you must wait 72 hours (3 days) to be able to unlock your phone, even if you have unlock permission.

Yes that is only ultimate solution.....
There is a 72 hour period after the binding process. Try again after that, should work fine. ( Mine did.)

Couldn't unlock. After 72 hours of trying to unlock

After 72 hours required by the Xiaomi tool. It is still not possible to unlock the bootloader of my Pocophone F1. I'm with find device enabled, sync enabled, OEM unlock enabled, USB debugging enabled and Mi account connected. If anyone knows how to solve this problem, please tell me.
PS: My ROM is MIUI 10 Global Beta v8.12.7
That's weird. Have you tried unlocking when the 72 hours weren't over yet? Because if you try to it should show the amount of hours remaining. If it never showed that while trying to unlock within the 72h period it might be another problem. Maybe you can run the chinese text trough google translate, with a tool that converts an image to text (don't know of any but they probably exist).

Register your device phone number first from developer options. That might solve it.
In the new version of Mi Unlock says in English that I need to use my device for a few more days to be able to unlock the bootloader. But it does not say exactly how long, slowly I'm trying.

Try rebooting a few times. Add a fingerprint if you haven't already. Sync with Mi Cloud every time after you reboot. These things could add to your "usage score".

You are supposed to use the phone normally after making the request for bootloader unlock. Please also note that you should be logged into your mi account in your phone all the time. If you do that and also do a few syncs as suggested by another member, you are sure to get approved. There is no other way, you have to wait.

I reverted to my old phone after I made the unlock bootloader request and I was not logged in to my Mi account the whole time. I switched on the Poco about 2 weeks later and was able to unlock the bootloader with no problems. The trick for the OP is to not only register your email with your Mi account but also your phone number through settings.
I think that's what he is missing.

I'm pretty sure that's what he is missing. Solid advice.
If the above methods don't work, then just factory reset your device and repeat the steps! I'm sure it'll work
Had the same problem.
Unbounded my account and loged in again on the phone.
Now the tool works and i'm unlocked...
Try toggling off the OEM Unlock setting then toggle it on again.
I'm facing the same problem, I requested for unlock last weekend, tried yesterday to unlock (as well over the 72 hours) & was notified that I need to try again in 1 day. I also tried the various suggestions here, but nothing helped/worked.

If it is asking you to wait for a day? I suggest to wait for a day, bottomline is there is no alternate to it, as far as I saw, go step by step, shall wait and see, should work fine
Best to insert the sim card to poco phone and using it for there days after bootloader unlock applied.

72h

Ok, I got my poco today and wanted to quickly unlock bootloader. But I didnt knew miUnlock have 72h period (hello There , last unlocked my mi5 2,5 years ago). My question: If i had this 72h alert can i still unlock it today with Miflash?
EDIT: Ok i figured out IT doesnt matters because i still can't pass it
No, you can't. You need to wait again for the 72 hours to pass. But you need to add the account anyway and connect the phone once to the Mi Unlock tool so you will get the 72 hours "active".

If you are using the same account as before (when you unlocked the Mi5), it may be possible to skip the wait. Some people have reported so.

Doesn't work anymore. I'm a Miui Device Team member, and the unlock is automatically granted for us, and we still waited 72 hours on POCO.
EDIT: For every other Xiaomi phone that works fine. No need to wait to be able to unlock. If you had already unlocked your phones before, just add the accounts to the new phones and it works without waiting.
