Can't activate device after unlock - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

Just unlocked my Poco. Since an account is associated with it, I need to unlock it. To unlock it I need to be connected to Internet. When I select my wifi network there is no keyboard to type a password. I have no service on Poco and recovery number was set to this phone number so I can't remove the device from Xiaomi account.
Any ideas?
Edit: Ok so I typed wifi pass in activate device input and copied it to wifi pass input. It connected, but to activate account I need mobile data. I have SIM card inside but no service. I have set a pin on SIM card maybe thats why?
I had same issue during associating phone with an account. I couldn't log in from my phone to mi account. Had to disable wifi and enable mobile data. Pretty autistic.

Ran into exactly same problem ?.
Put sim in another phone, enter pin, and receive unlock code for two step verification. Request unlock code on poco f1 over wifi.
I solved wifi problem by setting up open wifi network.

Yeah, drove to a friend who has phone with nano SIM card (my old one has micro) and managed to activate with his SIM card. I think I had no service because I had pin set up on SIM card while he didn't have pin set up.
Anyway problem solved

Forgot simcard pin

Hi
I have an old sim card i'm not using since a long time ago.. and "#!!, i forgot the pin... Now i want to use for some tests...but no pin.
Since i'm new in these "bootloader" and "so on" things, can anybody help me how to get rid of the sim card pin ?
thanks!
Use the PUK code
Use the PUK code delivered with your SIM to reset the PIN for the SIM. It has nothing to do with the bootloader.
If you've also lost the paper with the PUK code on it then try calling the Service Provider from whom the SIM came.
If the Service Provider can't help you then you're on your own.
Regards,
Mark
yeah
IF i had the PUK . . .
Vodafone online will provide puk, just log on to internet.

[Q] Save "Pin" of SIM card in Galaxy S II

Hi,
I have a prepaid sim card. When ever i start my phone, i have to enter the pin of the sim card.
In Nokia I was able to save this PIN in one of the phone settings and thus it enabled me to restart my phone and use it without me entering the PIN.
Is there any setting like in Galaxy S II? Searched couldn't find it.
My phone is unbranded just in case
thanks
you can disable the PIN in security settings. No idea if that works the way you want it to but give it a try:
go to Settings -> Location and Security -> Sim Lock (translated roughfly, maybe it says something similar) -> untick "Lock SIM Card"

[Q] Help needed before unlocking SIM!

I bought an Atrix that was sparingly used for two weeks locked to AT&T. I will be using it in India and have just ordered for an unlock code from cellunlock.
I want help to ensure I don't make the same mistakes some people have that might cause the Wi-Fi issue.
A motoblur account has already been created by the previous owner and i get the screen "Sim card is removed or changed , log into Motoblur to unlock".
I only have emergency call, set up APN, set up wi-fi and IMEI number as my options.
The wi-fi is connected at home to my router but I cant seem to access any browser -- everything leads me only to one screen which is the motoblur account screen as mentioned above.
I hence created a new Motoblur account on Motorola but I cannot log in -- " Username or Password incorrect"
(i) How do I use the new Motoblur account I created ? Should I ask the previous owner for his Motoblur username and password and then unlock it after receiving the unlock code from cellunlock ? (Read about IMEI# being tied to Motoblur)
(ii) Do I unlock it first after putting in my new sim and unlock code from cellunlock and then hard-reset the phone to enable my Motoblur account?
I want to be doubly sure to ensure I dont make any mistakes. The phone is with me in India and any pointers would be greatly appreciated
Update: Successfully unlocked using cellunlock code but still face problem of "Sim Card is changed or removed"
The indian Carrier Airtel is shown on the right top corner and the phone shows I'm connected to my homes netgear wi-fi but I can't access any browser.
I tired Hard resetting it as mentioned in one thread but it got stuck after choosing the Android Recovery selection -- A yellow triangle and Android logo appeared but nothing happened after Tapping the bottom-right corner of the screen.
Do i contact the original user of the phone for his motoblur Id?
Please help me guys.

[Q] SIM PIN

Hello All,
I recently rooted my ATT SGS2 and now it doesnt allow me to set a pin for the sim.
"Lock SIM card" under "Set up SIM card lock" is diabled and when I try to check it, it asks me a pin and when I enter some pin it says its a wrong pin. It only has 4 or 5 attempts and now I have only one attempt left. What is happening here. Any ideas?
I am unable to post link.
I just picked up my S2 last week and just started exploring this very thing. I thought it would be good to lock my SIM but, when I clicked on to use a pin and then change pin, it asks me for the old pin which I don't have. It went from 5 attempts left to one, even though I only entered one pin thinking I was setting it up. Now I'm afraid to touch it and I can't deselect the "Lock SIM Card" checkmark without entering a pin. I'm so confused. I've searched in XDA about it, but can't find anything.
Any gurus out there that might be able to help a twit that was smart enough to leave BB and come to Android?

Most likely its all 0's zeros.. that's what all my cell phones uses by default.
so if you purchased the phone brand new never used then 99% all zero's
Well, doing a little more searching and a -lot- more reading, I discovered that the 8 digit code is under your cell phone account at your carrier's site. I went to ATT, found the PUK code (eight digits). That's the pin. You enter that first, then you can change the pin to whatever you like. I opted to leave it alone.
