Not able to reset Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 (HELP!) - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

I'm not able to reset my Redmi Note 3, I tried erasing through settings>additional settings>erase data but my phone reboots and goes back to home screen...I also tried volume up + power button and the Mi logo shows for 5 - 10 seconds and the screen boots again and goes back to home screen.. What is the meaning of this? I've been trying to reset my phone for 1-2 years now and can't reset it and I also can't get any information on this online.. I've been having numerous issues with my phone which is why I want to reset it to default.. Someone Help Me!

Redmi Note 3 Pro SE (Kate) - can not bind device to account

I flashed my phone with kate_global_images_7.5.19_20170519.0000.00_6.0_global in order to unlock the bootloader via mi unlock. The phone has successfully connected to mi cloud and can be located on the i.mi.com website. If I go into developer options and tap on the button to bind the phone to my account for unlocking it just keeps telling me to try again in another couple of minutes. This seems to be a really common problem and I haven't been able to find a solution. Any ideas? Thanks.
Same here. Been waiting for 5 days now after getting permission. Still fails to bind. This whole official unlock way is a total POS. It even says after you are granted permission you can unlock right away but that's not true at all. I also have SE and dev rom btw.
maybe try to flash miui 8 via fastboot..
i used fastboot rom miui 8 , miflash (not xiaomiflash) ver 2016, and unlock ver 1.1..

MIUI 8 what? The dev rom 7.x is MIUI 8. Do you mean dev or stable? I was on MIUI 8 stable before but it didn't help.
my issues, evrytime i flashed miui rom, my imei isn't showing up (i need to official unlock to flash lastest los)
i tried some rom dev 7.x.x.x , but i cant login mi account via wifi.
then, i flashed this rom with miflash 2016 (mine is kenzo)
http://en.miui.com/thread-439892-1-1.html
and it works, i can unlock my phone without imei..

I think the "can not bind" problem is specific to Kate. The IMEI problem with your Kenzo phone is probably a separate issue.

Thanks for the reply but I need to have the latest dev ROM to allow LineageOS to flash - it checks for the most recent firmware.

Yes i know.first you use the older version miui to unlock the bootloader.after that just reflash to latest dev rom.make sure you checked CLEAN ALL.it will not lock your bootloader.

After flash,try to wipe data and cache in recovery.then reboot your device.if after 5 min still looping,try to force reboot.

I thought of that but I couldn't get the phone to boot into recovery - Power and Vol+ opened a screen with a picture of the phone with a cable being plugged into it rather than recovery

Doesn't work - complains that the deivice isn't bound to the account
There is no point trying anything. Nothing works. I have a 3 month long email chain with xiaomi support, which ended by them saying I should contact the direct seller. Basically they washed their hands. I ended up sending my device to a guy, who has a xiaomi service licence, and he managed to unlock it officially with his code.
If you cannot bind your account and device for two weeks with multiple tries, you should just give up on the "mainstream" unlock procedure. It will never work, and the only thing that comes out of it is slowly bulding rage.
It's not worth it.

Sounds like good advice. My Note 4 has arrived now so I think I'll just flash the stock MIUI ROM & ebay it.

Decrypt phone prompt window

Hello all,
on Sunday I flashed LineageOS on my RN4.
Been using it till yesterday but I wanted to switch back to MIUI.
So I downloaded a Global developer recovery rom and wanted to flash it via TWRP.
I rebooted to recovery and immediately there was a prompt to type the password to decrypt the phone. Why is that?
Luckily, the password was my lockscreen PIN so I made it to get in recovery, but, why is that so and how to get rid of it?
And after that, I mean after I flashed MIUI, I rebooted to System and before my phone even booted, I had the same prompt window to type a password to decrypt the phone.
Any help here? I searched already and people said that I have to format my phone (including Data) and after that hopefully the prompt window won't be there anymore.
But I dont wanna format the whole phone, if there is any other solution.
thanks!

There's no solution unless you do a format via either twrp or using fastboot command.

Format via TWRP means format everything? I mean, Advanced Wipe -> and here check everything and format or?
You mean format everything via fastboot? If so, do I keep TWRP installed? And if so, which command is that?
Thanks!

Nah, if you've TWRP installed then no need for fastboot.
Steps to decrypt :-
*Boot to TWRP
*choose wipe
*Tap format data [you'll find this in the bottom right]
*type 'yes' to continue
*???!?
*Decrypted!
I repeat do not choose advanced wipe or whatever, choose FORMAT!

Don't panic sir, everyone in here who've had Decrypted their device had lost their files too. You should've made a backup before performing the action.

No problem
By the way, when you add pattern or password or any kinda screen locks, choose "No thanks" When its prompts to enter pin/password everytime you boot.
That's it.

But, if I format data as you have said, do I keep the TWRP or I have to flash it again via fastboot?

No need to fastboot again, if you format data, you'll only lose your data not the TWRP.

Hi guys hope you are safe.......
So i have been trying to flash a custom recovery to my mido.Since MIUI replaces the custom one with stock recovery after booting we have to boot to recovery from fastboot(right?).But the sad thing is my power button is not working.So is there any other way to boot to recovery from fastboot other than fastboot boot recovery.img.
I've learnt that fastboot boot doesnt work for new MIUI(tried it).So..Have i got any hope or will i have to wait until the lockdown is over to get my power button fixed.
Thanks

Hello Sir,
I am using Redmi Note 4 (nikel) MiUi 10.2, Android ver 6.0, Bootloader unlocked and install twrp. Yesterday, I am trying to upgrade from recovery method. In this case, before install firmware I was backup Boot, System, and Data. After backup I was wipe Dalvik/ART cache, System, Data, Cache, Cust. Than I was installed firmware and successfully upgrade. Than rebooted deviec. But my device looped in boot.
Because I was wiped cust partition without backup. If any one using same device redmi note 4 nikel and installed twrp please backup this cust patition and upload to restore. I cant flash from fastboot because I can't use PC. So this is only way to recovery. Can anyone help me please.

Go to Stock Mi Recovery by holding volume up and power for a few seconds. Then wipe data and reboot. The only disadvantage is it will erase all your data.
