hi guys
I have gotten a phone off ebay and it seems that it has a mi account configured.
I have booted in to recovery and did a reset but now at the wizard screen it gets a popup to enter that mi account password which I do not have.
any way I can just flash it and erase everything?
already tried to use the mi unlocker but it tells me some other account is connected

I've bought a redmi note 3 (MTK) used (with box), and this mobile phone has been registered by the seller and today is associated to his mi account.
I've made a full factory reset, and at fist boot the miui identify that the phone is already associated to a mi account, and, obviously I haven't credential to login and it's not possible to change the account in this phase.
Is there any way to remove this association or to disable the account verification? Or does exists any fastboot flashable roms that doesn't have account verification?
The mobile phone has the bootloader locked and so doesn't have twrp.
I'm not able to contact the old proprietary of the phone and ask him to remove the phone from his account.
Thank you all
This problem is annoing me
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?
Hello guys, this is my first post so please forgive me if I'm gonna ask a dumb question.
My situation is I switched from OTA beta ROM to the MIUI 10 stable ROM after it resets my phone the first screen that pops up was "This device is locked" / "This device is associated with an existing MI Account. For security reasons, you need to enter the password to verify the device".
Heres what I did.
1. I open the wifi settings to sign in to my wifi connection
2. I click to the "Activate this device" button. Then it put me where I should put the password. Note: there's no tab or box for the username or MI Account ID.
3. I entered the password of my MI Account. Note: I save it on my computers sticky note so I'm sure I entered the right one.
After those 3 steps, the system says "Couldn't verify MI account ID. Invalid username or password.". So at first I was puzzled so tried to do it 3 times and I turned off the hide password function to make sure that im entering the right password. But after many times of trying, I still can't log in. Then I tried going to "Forget Password".
Heres what happened.
1. It asks me the email address that I used for my MI Account.
2. After I submitted it, it says that they will send an Account Verification Code to my email. Note: I did change the password for my MI Account before this incident so I'm sure that I'm using the same email address on my MI Account.
3. Then I went to my email account but I didn't receive any email after checking everything i.e "Spam and etc.".
4. I thought I did a mistake so I tried it again(Sending the verification code to my Email) but I still received nothing to the point that I've used all my attempts and I can't do it again for 24hrs.
So I tried to log in my MI Account on my desktop because I always save the passwords on the browser to check if I can log in or I cant. So when after trying it says the same thing that the password is incorrect. So I went on my browsers setting and went to "Password" and there I found the saved "Password for my MI Account". So when I turned off the hide password function it shows me that the password I entered on my phone is the same password saved on my computer's browser for my MI Account. So I tried to click the password on my computer's browser hoping that it will direct me to my mi account webpage, But after clicking it, it sends me to an empty page with this "{"result":"error","reason":"expires_in参数不能为空","code":10016,"description":"缺失必选参数"}" .
I really don't know what to do. I tried doing the hard reset option. I wiped my data and then Reboot my device. But even after doing all that it always sends to the "This device is locked".
Im really out of ideas this is my only phone so I was really a bit frustrated and stressed out for not being able to use it. So id like to ask for your guy's help. I hope you can help me with my problem. Even if not I still want to thank you all for spending time to read my post.

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