Bricked (maybe) and Frp Locked - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I have a redmi note 4x (Snapdragon Version).
Earlier this week, I have flashed the stock firmware of it through fastboot to return from a custom rom to the stock one. But after flashing - wifi, gps, bluetooth was not working. Then I flashed several more times. But after all these nothing happened. And the device remained the same (bluetooth, gps, wifi was not working).
Then I started using it like that as I couldn't find any solution at that point. Then my younger brother wanted that device and I wanna shift to a new one. Then I gave it to him.
My brother is just 11. He opened a new google account in the phone, and removed all others (mine ones). Then 2 days later, he forgot the device passcode, and reset the device through revovery option.
Next, after resetting the phone, it was asking for the previous google account. And unfortunately my brother forgot the password of that google account. (the account had no recovery option).
Finally, we are stuck. Can't bypass the frp because, wifi is not working. (it's bypass works through the wifi setup page in the setting up process) When the device comes to the wifi setup page, it goes blank, the only thing then i can do is to skip it and enable mobile data to continue.
....................Now, can't unlock the frp and can't recover it to enable the wifi gps bluetooth option...............
So, please help me.
Advance thanks.

Cant access device after Android 9

Hi ! Today i bought my Pocophone F1 and updated it to MIUI 10. Created MI account, entered my google account and downloaded Android 9 update. After the installation of the update i no longer can pass the first settings screen. There is a Confirm your password section where the keyboard is only numerical and cant enter any of my passwords cause they all contain letters. I cannot install another ROM because my bootloader is locked and cannot unlock it from this state. I can access all of my accounts from computer, just dont know what is this only numerical password ... Would be glad if anyone can help !
Hi, I have exactly the same problem and conditions. Today I got the smartphone, registered on the page, updated with:

(MIUI10/choose lang/chose your region/connect to network/terms and c./checking for updates/copy apps&data(skiped)/checking info/confirm your passsword)
Wipe data did not help.

Its seems is somehow google account related. Managed to flash the same ROM (cause its the only one i can flash with locked bootloader) with XiaomiADB and MI account dissapeared, but only Google one left. It let you go without wifi connection to the end but just when you press the last button to go to the homepage it says you cannot because there is a google profile here and Couldnt been able to bypass it cause all the techniques dont work here, like for example the talkback gesture and SSID copy stuff. Tried even to remove my device from my google profile, but with no luck for the moment ...

I suspect more likely a numeric password, which would have to be connected to Xiaomi-account.(it's google)
When I turn off the wi-fi I get a message that the phone is assigned to a Xiaomi-account with the number xyz (account number is not this asked password) which can not be checked.
Ive send the device back to the seller. Actualy i contacted Xiaomi global support, but the bad news is they cannot understand the problem i have with the device, despite the description i gave them. I wrote them if the seller cannot fix it and decline to send a new device to give them IMEI and Mi account to unlock the bootloader since i cannot access the device. I doubt instaling official rom void warranty. We will see tomorrow.
Have someone any idea?
To try to remedy to this you might want to follow these steps. Do it in quick succession.
1. Press Power Button and Vol Down simultaneously to force shut down the device.
2. When the screen switches off quickly press Power Button and Vol Up, this will give you access to Recovery Mode
3. From there, you need to wipe your data (factory reset)
Here you use volume buttons to navigate and power button to select.
I don't know of any other way for your situation.

i had a similar problem after unlocking the bootloader, i had to log in to my mi account which gave me a normal keyboard but to then go online i had to enter my wifi password which gave me no keyboard at all.
i used a usb keyboard with an otg adapter to circumvent the issue, worked fine but shame on xiaomi for such a bad software...

Questio regarding Mi Account and unlocking bootloader on 5 plus

Apparently I have bought Redmi 5 plus (MPEG7) which was locked with Mi Account or what. The phone works normally, but I cannot add my Xiaomi Account because it gives me some error I don´t remember now.
Tried to update the firmware manually, didn´t help. So I decided to do factory reset, and then, soon after the set up screen I connecet to wifi, my Xiaomi got locked. It says I need to sign in on account which was previously been there.
The guy who sold me this phone, aware me of this, I should not do factory reset because this will happen, but I thought If there is no Mi Account on this phone I am good to go.
Luckily I found local repair shop who helped me to revive this phone by bypassing Mi Account somehow. I can use it with my Gmail account and I still can´t add my Xiaomi Mi Account.
So here goes my question now, how much I can do about that here. Unlocking bootloader and installing custom recovery would help me here. But the thing is I can´t enter my Mi Account on my phone, so that means no unlocking bootloader for me, at least nothing officially.
So my questions goes. Is there any way to unlock bootloader without having MI Account on the phone?
And before I forgot, if I don´t unlock the bootloader, and the phone stay in the same condition, will my phone lock itself again after I update it to MIUI 11, once when the update is available?
For now it is on the latest MIUI available, 10.2 Stable, OEGMIXM
Thanks in advance

Hello!
I have a problem similar to this. And I've been looking for some answers on that. With the current state of the device, I have how to unlock the bootloader, and then install a custom recovery and rom? So far I have not found any answer that is favorable to me. Other than paying for the service.

As far I have did some further research, unfortunately for us there is no solution to this. Basically the phone is connected with the Mi Cloud servers. As there is no alternative to unlock the bootloader, other than the official way, if in any case we got to sign in our account on the phone, the phone will lock itself eventually.
The only solution is the person who owned the phone have to remove the phone from the Mi Cloud service.
I hope at least we will get MIUI 11 and the update will not lock our device again.
If you want to know more about this, I have created a thread on Mi Community forum, so you can check there, one guy tried to help me about this problem, but no success

Hello!
I am also getting help to solve the problem. But, it has been 25 days that after sending some photos of the device screens nothing happened regarding the unlock. That is, it remains blocked. I tried help from S-Unlock but showed no interest in solving the problem. I need to find another company or someone to unlock the device next to the server. Feel free to help me if you want.

Working but unusable Redmi 3

Dear community,
you are my last resort to help me in this situation...
I have Redmi 3 which I last used 2 years ago. In that time It was associated with my Mi account. Today this account doesn't exist anymore - don't ask me why, I don't know.
I factory resetted it. Now, when it starts, it asks me for Mi credentials and doesn't let me access other phone options (settings, apps, etc.) I enter my old credentials, but of course it doesn't recognize them (account does not exist / username-password is invalid). This leaves me with unusable phone.
I tried many things:
- wrote to Xiaomi support, but they refuse to help me. They redirect me to local support or to my seller (which doesn't exist anymore).
- I flashed with brand new clean MIUI rom. I can use phone normally until I put it online. It instantly locks the phone and asks for Mi credentials.
- tried installing other OS (such as Lineage), but can't do that, because I need TWRP. To install TWRP, I need to unlock bootloader. Unfortunately I didn't unlock bootloader when I could do (2 years ago). If I try to unlock it now, my username doesn't get recognized.
-- I tried creating new Mi account to associate to my Redmi 3. Association requires internet connection which instantly locks the phone.
-- I also tried installing TWRP as it shown in this youtube video: watch?v=quNAkht1Lwc [can't publish link, I'm new user] Procedure puts my phone in looped boot process.
- I tried flashing this custom Xiaomi EU ROM but can't even flash it (instructions are at xiaomifirmware site guides-and-tips/twrp-custom-rom-locked-bootloader-redmi-3s/ [can't publish link - I'm new user])
I probably tried some other options, but can't remember them now and I'm literally exhausted!
So, in brief:
- my phone has locked bootloader
- Mi account associated with phone doesn't exist
What else can I try? Let me know if you need additional info.
Sorry for the late reply.
Have you tried to boot into fastboot mode and
- fastboot oem unlock, to unlock bootloader?
If you can unlock bootloader, try flashing a recovery. That will give you more space of maneuver.

Question Unlock bootloader, no access to Developer Options

Hi all,
I've been struggling for days now to find out how to unlock bootloader on RedMi Note 10 Pro.
A friend of mine has forgotten his screen lock pattern.
I've done a device reset wiping away all datas.
While reconfiguring it I keep hanged on Android FRP protection: although I am using the same google account I keep having the "something went wrong" error message.
What I wanted to do, then, is reflash MIUI Standard ROM, but can't succeed as bootloader isn't unlocked and no developer options have been turned on on device.
Can someone please point me to the solution?
Best regards,
DD
Update.
Phone is REDMI NOTE 10 PRO - M2101K6G - Maybe I posted it in the wrong section...
I've managed to update ROM to MIUI 14 using XiaoMiTool V2.
Unfortunately I didn't got rid of Android FRP.
I've got access to the google account used on the phone before resetting it (password, phone number, recovery email).
But if I use the account during phone configuration, android asks for the account previously used on the phone... which is exactly the one I used!
Actually I'm locked out of my own phone!
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards,
DD

i need help unlocking my device after it has had mi account lock bypass

hi. a while ago (5 years ago) xiaomi note 5 pro was gifted to me when I was living in volos (Greece), now I live in athens and found my old device which was stored in storage boxes, I charged it and it works! i wanted to install a custom rom on it as I hate miui and when I factory reset my phone it locked up, I worry as I try countless passwords and none work, and the phone number linked to the locked xiaomi account is a very old one which I changed about 3 years ago and don't even remember anymore, after trying to get a receipt from KOTSOVOLOS (tech shop where the phone was bought) they said they couldn't find any receipts for such phone. without it xiaomi wouldn't unlock my phone no matter what. so I took it to a shop to bypass the lock and they did. it now works but they told me to never factory reset it as the lock will come back.
they bypassed the lock by corrupting the lock partition, and disableing 5 services (found out myself after digging into the phone by my computer)
now, I wanted to unlock its bootloader to flash a custom rom. but when I try to add an account (from the mi unlock status section in settings) on the device (with sim) it tells me error 20091, and trying to do it straight from mi flash won't work either, as mi flash detects that the device is still locked up and won't proceed. after calling the repair shop, they told me because of the bypass they couldn't unlock its bootloader.
but I don't want to give up right now.
can anyone please help me? any suggestions appreciated, and I will answer all questions you all might have (if any).
thank you!
