Forgot MI Account password and SIM card expired - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

I wanted to install a different rom on my phone because the stock one got very laggy after time, so I went ahead and tried to flash MIUI 9 then it asked me for the account password which I couldn't get, then tried to flash MIUI v7.2.3.0 which doesn't prompt you to login to miui account, it worked but it didin't have internet and my sim didin't work for some reason? in "about phone" it said "out of service"
What do I do now? I want to use my phone but can't because it's asking me to login to MIUI account :\

do you remember in your pc your mi account password?
sure you use a password of the other mail account or game account or similar try to remember.
if you search in XDA other user post the way to unlock this... but i dont like to share this unofficially method.

I have never used the mi account, I only used it 1 time to register in 2016 then never again, I have tried many passwords but it doesn't work, also it has no email attached.
What is the way? Please share

but it has one thing that is certainly attached to it, your phone number.

Unofficialy unlock bootloader and then install a custom rom.

Can't use MIUI due to mi account

I'm not able to use MIUI anymore because of the inability to enter my mi account's password.
So a month ago, I created a new mi account by using my phone number cuz i was not able to unlock my bootloader officially. I then did a factory reset but now whenever i start my phone, it asks for Mi account verification password... So even when i enter the password, it shows incorrect password and i cant get past this part so I'm stuck at this startup screen and cant use my phone at all. I even tried resetting my account password but it says "You've exceeded the number of verification attempts allowed within 24 hours." even after waiting for 24 hours before another attempt. It still shows the same error after a month. I think the reason is not verifying the new number after creating mi account.
I would like to add that I've tried contacting Xiaomi customer service quite a few times but they were of no use so I flashed an early MIUI firmware and i was able to access my phone but it was showing no IMEI number so I unofficially unlocked my bootloader and installed CM13. I'm now on LOS14.1 but wanna switch back to MIUI cuz of camera quality. So is there any way that I can use MIUI ever again?
Please help
Try this. Take out your SIM card and don't enable WiFi at the setup screen. It should bypass the account login page.

I tried that as well but it seems that this mi account thing registers itself with the IMEI number so no matter what I do, it asks for the password in the startup.

I really don't know how Xiaomi expect you to login through their system without any SIM/data or WiFi connection.

Thanks. I'll give it a try. Don't have Wi-Fi right now so I'll have to wait for few days I guess.
One question though: After flashing with the oldest firmware, I lose IMEI so do I need to update through Wi-Fi and then create a new mi account?

I had that one, too. You need to set your nickname for MIUI forum. Just log in to your account on the forum (http://en.miui.com/forum.php). You will be asked to choose the name. After you do so. Try to ask for unlock again. It should work now.
Actually i was logging in using my old account created before i purchased my device (created using email address) and account crated in my device was using my mobile no. Due to which i was unable to apply but now successfully applied using device account. Thank you for help
I get the same thing. with redirect to chinese page. since i'm using chrome browser, so i use chrome translate feature, so I the two different messages were translated. it keeps switching between the two pages, but managed to see the translated messages. They're currently upgrading system thus request of application is being put on hold/blocked.

haha. found out solution. you need to login with your account to MIUI forum app (search in Play Store) and login with your newly created account, you will need to create a nickname. Please ensure you get to a page in the forum app that says you've earned 4 experiences for your first login. then try again applying for unlocking permission.

3 devices per account maximum. Maybe you exeded your limit.
Well, I didnt know that about 3 devices limit per 1 account. I've unlocked 3 devices till now so that is the issue. THank you!
1st download miunlock tool,then extract and run it..,sign in .
2nd when it is shown that you r device is not supported by mi unlock,click go..and click mi unlock,and sign in there too
3rd the page will redirect to some page,that will ask you for a username,if you choose suitable username,the, sad emoji will not appear again,then you will be redirected to miui forum, which is in chineese,u have to manulayy make it in english,by clicking at top left corner,englisg forum,and then when english forum comes,click sign in and you r all set,
finally when you click go from mi unlock tool,and then miui unlock from official page...you will be redirected to your requet intended page......chilll bro

I saw this thread was brought back from the dead, and I just saw this post. Are you serious???
I thought it was 1 unlock for 1 device per month... and even that's pushing it. It's hard enough to get an unlock as it is and they just went and made it 5 times harder with this nonsense. The Note 4 may be my first and last Xiaomi phone...

Apply for unlock
So i saw a lot of videos of people applying to unlock the bootloarder of thier Xiaomi phones by going to the unlock page click the blue unlock button and then they get redirected to put their account with phone number so they can receive one SMS from xiaomi when the unlock approval is done, i have a Xiaomi Redmi 5 plus from Mexico and when i try to go to this so called page to put my phone number and apply for unlocking i always go redirected to download the Mi Unlock Tool first.... i cant find any page now to put my number and wait for Xiaomi to send me that so called SMS.
My question is if i download the Unlock Tool and connect the phone in fastboot to try to unlock it just as the web page is telling me right now, am i going to have the phone plugged in until the process of unlocking finishes, the whole 15 days? (I know it sounds stupid but i am new to this)

First, applied for bootloader unlock successfully?
OK, now wait for their approval, ok.
Approved?
Then, DL MI_Unlock tool, try to unlock your device by signing in your mi account, you might get error or some hours of time to unlock your device, that means, you've to wait until few days to unlock, until then you just enjoy MIUI ??

Can't sign in mi account

After installing new rom (EU, Stock) i'm not able to sign in my account due to device security info (It says couldn't check device security info) And my device is totally locked.
Last day it was normal.
have you checked your internet connection, and give more info regarding it
Same Here! After flashing another MIUI Rom it won't let me log in into my mi account for the same reason.
But I have also noticed that I am not able to log in into my account from my computer via the browser. Mi Cloud should be accessible via https:// i.mi. com. But - surprise, surprise - it fails also due to a connection error (http 408?).
So I guess, we just have to wait for a fix on Xiaomi's side? Can anybody confirm my observations?

I can tell you more. I can't not quit account on old Redmi Note 4 due to network error, can't login on new Redmi Note 4X just by "Authentication error", and even get both them locked after reset the first one. And now I wait for resolution of their problems to get both devices unlocked.
I even wrote support, they told me "we have this issue and working on it". Recommended me try to login after few hours.
i have waited for 16 hours and the problem is still there. Sad!

I have the same problem now, do we happen to have a solution for this now?
my account.xiaomi.com error was Couldn't sign in (undefined). Had to provide different email address (domain).
incredibly could not sign after many tries:
- success but email never arrived via VPN IP to normal email accounts
- "Couldn't create account, try again later" from Tor IP
- "Couldn't sign in (undefined)" with email from domain they can't recognize (domain is not .com etc)
- "Couldn't sign up(undefined)" when using temporary email from their known list
- success with a fake gmail account (standalone, not "connected") via VPN IP
but then again, can't login Mi Home.. this company sucks.

maybe we have to use redmi website 1st, and then get the account verification and then we log, and get username / account number from mi account , and then applicate-that username number and password to log-in..
i hope you succeed as i am...

U can skip it by forgot password
1. You need to have a TWRP
2. Using the same rom/fastboot rom, search for the persist.img
3. Copy persist.img to root of the device
4. Boot into recovery (TWRP)
5. On Advanced Terminal type this
simg2img /sdcard/persist.img /sdcard/persist_EXT4.img
then type this
dd if=/sdcard/persist_EXT4.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist
Reboot

How do I get pass login after unlocking the device?

https://i.imgur.com/cbo5EyG.jpg
Just unlocked the device and the device restarted but i'm confused what to do on this screen?
First option seems to require a phone number, but i don't have a xiaomi phone and im not sure i assigned my phone number to the mi account.
not sure what the wifi option does... it gives me a qr code but it doesn't seem to do anything from my note 9, besides change wifi?
Any help would be super, thanks!
nvm: first option was asking for your miui password...
Asks for your account.. doesnt have to br phone number, xiaomi accounts can also use email.. in my case it asked only password i think.
u just need enter your password without internet. Pass! :good:

You say''and formated my phone without loging out" at that moment you were logged in, so you have the password.

On xiaomi cloud login
