Hi. Yesterday evening I decided to debloat the Mi 11 Lite phone using the ADB console. Unfortunately, I did not notice that the phone was logged in to the xiaomi account and probably because of that I cannot unlock the phone now (I deleted the Mi Account and Mi Cloud apps, among others). I now have a black screen with a padlock and a choices:
- activate the device
- wifi settings
and below is some unlock code that I do not know where to enter.
After selecting "activate the device" I have to enter the password to the xiaomi account. Unfortunately, after entering the password, the phone locks up again after a second, even though the password is correct. I logged into my xiaomi account via www on my computer and removed the device from the list (there was only one to choose from) but that didn't help either.
I wanted to reinstall deleted apps via adb, but can't - adb can't see the device, probably developer options have been disabled.
Windows also does not see the device, I cannot download photos, etc. So the device is visible, but after entering the phone icon it is empty.
What can I do? The phone wipe is really the last resort
There are two ways to unlock account lock
One way
Operate directly on this phone
1. Click "wifi settings" to connect a wifi or insert a SIM card
2. Click "activate the device" and enter the password of your Xiaomi account
3. Click the Activate button
Another way
Operate on the Xiaomi cloud service website
1. Log in to your Xiaomi account on this website
2. Click "Find My Device"
3. Tap your locked device
4. Click the "three dots" on the top right
5. Click "Turn off Find Device"
6. Click "wifi settings" to connect a wifi or insert a SIM card
7. If the device still appears locked, try restarting the device
Hi.
Thank you for time in helping me.
The first solution doesn't work for me. As I mentioned filling the correct password unlocks the phone only for one second. Second solution doesn't work either. I see location of the phone on the map, but there is no "turn off find my device" option. Instead there is "turn on" option
UPDATE!
Although there was "turn on option" in find my device section, I clicked it and phone location has been turned off! And then instantly the phone was unlocked! Thank you very much.
what if I forgot my password and I can't connect to MI cloud and the above screen is still on the home screen?
how, in that case, to activate the phone regardless of the fact that I don't have to save the account?

I was able to use my second phone, where I also had Mi Accounts enabled, to change my forgotten password .
To authenticate, Xiaomi sent me the code by SMS to my previously registered phone number:
Bootloop Fastboot (stock) / Phone locked for security reason (Xiaomi.eu)
Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE (Lisa) Stock 12.5.8 EEA Bootloader unlocked, Orange Fox recovery and Magisk Canary 25.2 I was running the same set-up for a couple of months, by only updating when newer Magisk was released or some module. I never had any...
forum.xda-developers.com
You could probably also try to login via PC, and there should be a usual option like I forgot my password, that Xiaomi send you a link to your previously registered mail address, with a token to authenticate and for changing your password
thanks for the reply

Hey guys.
Here is the story ... I received my Redmi 3 Pro device back from the Xiaomi because it was sent there due to faulty camera. When I turned on the device it said This device is locked and there is a little button Activate this device. After that the screen shows that the device may be associated with existing Mi Account, which is my account. When I enter the password and tap on Activate I get an error saying Couldn't verify Mi Account ID. Can't connect to network.
How the hell can I connect to network if I even can't get past this screen.
Does anybody have an idea? I bought the device months ago and couldn't use it even for a day because it took them almost three months to replace the camera.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Try to use a sim card with mobile data and no pin. It should automatically connect to the internet and allow you to activate your phone.

Thanks ... worked like a charm
In my case it happened after disabling some stock Mi apps on an officially unlocked phone. Trying to connect would fail because the required dependencies were not available. The easy solution was to reboot into the twrp recovery and delete the file /data/system/users/0/package-restrictions.xml — the file gets recreated after boot with the default stock package restrictions.
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:
miui_POCOF1Global_8.11.29_14c6931f61_9.0.zip.
(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.
I've been desperate for hours. Please 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.
Hi I've the same solution there is the solution
Download on your pc the fastboot rom
http://en.miui.com/thread-3943816-1-1.html

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...
I updated Poco F1 with MIUI 10.1 over standard OTA update. After the update, it asked for my encryption password. When I enter it, it said password was correct, but data was corrupted, so I needed to reset the device (It only had reset button). I tapped the reset button.
After the reset, I was asked Mi Account password because the device was associated with a Mi Account. Fine. I connected with WiFi and logged in with Mi Account successfully.
Now, the setup began. During the setup process, it is asking for a numeric pin. The title of the screen says "Re-enter your password". What should I enter here? The keyboard that opens is a number pad, so I can't enter other characters. My previous device password was not fully numeric. My Mi account password is also not numeric. My Google account password is also not numeric. What should I enter here?
Please help out me. I have single phone and I am stuck
If your password was a pattern and not a pin, then just imagine the numeric pad numbers as dots of the patterns lock screen then press the numbers on this numeric pad accordingly to draw your pattern using these numbers.

During the setup process, it will asked for Google account, skip it, then will asked you to activate mi account if you had previously login to miui.

Thank you for reply. Before asking Google account it is asking MI account login and I logged in successfully with MI account credentials. After MI login then asking google account, I skipped this steps the asking re-enter password pin.

You sir, just saved my life.
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:
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.
I'm having the same problem, did you get a solution?
And I'm having the same problem with my brand new Redmi Note 8 Pro. I think I've changed my password almost 10 times but still, the problem persists.
After setting a super easy passwrod like "J12345678" my problem solved! xiomi really sucks!
