Just to keep anyone informed as i were probably one of the first here with a US account.

36 hours to go and i´m positive that it´ll work.

New RMN10Pro5G. Immediately after receiving it i tried to unlock with my original mi account (GER-Region) and directly got the rebind error.

Created a new mi account using an existing google account and choosed US region during the registration. Added a password, to be able to login in the unlock tool.

Switched my German mobile number from the old to the new mi account.

Registered in the developer options for the mi unlock status.

Started the official miflash_unlock-en-6.5.406.31.

And was able to see the normal 168h waiting time. Which is 36 hours to go from now. So when i see if it works or not i´ll let you know.

I did the same thing on Tuesday, hoping this will work, so I can unlock my poco f3 as well on Tuesday, but I didn't use a Google account. I just made a new mi account with region set to US. Before when I tried on my eu account it instantly said rebind error, but after using us account it shows the remaining time so I'm hoping this will work

Even the FAQ in page on mi unlock does not exist or is under moderation https://c.mi.com/thread-2262302-1-0.html

Something is going on for sure

This is so stupid that Xiaomi doesn't say anything.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] 1695:
It has been for quite some times.

Half of mi.com links are dead (...) so let's not jump to conclusions. Even the "Bug & Feedback" link in Mi Flash Tool has been giving a 502 bad request for month... The list of bugs you can spot on one of c.mi.com page doesn't fit a 10mb notepad file ^^. You can't judge Xiaomi by its dead links (if people did so, no one would ever have bought Xiaomi's product :p).

As said previously, UK service replied to an XDA user that the problem already had been reported and that they would communicate when they have information. There is a similar report from French service.

I know that's no guarantee and it *could* be a generic ****ty answer, but at least it's fact and not speculation. Let's keep looking for a way to bypass that bug, while we wait for some news ;).

What great news, guys! When I test with my device I will give you feedback.

My question is, if the countdown never came out for me, will I be able to unlock it directly without waiting? Would be great.

Thanks to all your efforts and hopefully some of the reports is what made Xiaomi fix the tool.

funziona di nuovo l'hai sbloccato? posso comunque cambiare il mio account? nel senso che da 3 giorni ho un nuovo account in fase di conto alla rovescia perché non riuscivo a sbloccarlo con il mio vecchio account già sbloccato. se cambio con quello vecchio mi fa raddoppiare il tempo? Chiedo se avere un account già sbloccato mi fa ripartire da zero grazie

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] stadotek:
it's working again have you unlocked it? can I change my account anyway? in the sense that for 3 days I have a new account in the countdown phase because I could not unlock it with my old account already unlocked. if I change with the old one, does it make me double the time? I ask if having an account already unlocked makes me start from scratch thanks

Just tried on the original Eu account where it gave me the error and unlocked it for me !!
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] stadotek:
hai fatto un cambio di account per questo?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] stadotek:
did you make an account change for this?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] notoriginal10:
I never had the countdown timer (always rebind error) but now I'll have to wait 77 hours.

The server possibly registered the right time, but didn't do anything beyond that.

If you use another account, you probably start at 168 hours again.

--

On another note, I couldn't ever login with my US account. It always got stuck at the loading circle after confirming the verification code.

So i went back to my German account and it showed me 77 hours waiting time. That is after using a second account. It seems it never reset the timer, because I could never click unlock on the second account.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] mikemanpl:
Yes, it seems that it is working. Interestingly I got 122h to wait, which is strange but it covers, more or less, when I first tried unlock but gave me a rebind error, so it seems that mi registered the attempt and started counting since that time.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] stadotek:
I am using a new account due to the US account created rebind issue. but now that you tell me that the problem is solved can I change with my old account already after 168 hours have passed? without having reset problems?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] notoriginal10:
See my reply above. I highly recommend using the last account you tried.

In my case, my second (US) account never logged in correctly, so I had nothing to lose adding my old account back. It showed me the correct time for my first (German) account.

Summary:

- use the last account you saw a countdown timer with

- if you used another (US) account and couldn't login, use the first account again to avoid resetting

- using a new account now, you will probably have to wait 168 hours

I was able to unlock my bootloader immediately this morning.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] stadotek:
quindi anche se ho un vecchio account già sbloccato non posso fare la modifica? anche riportando il telefono alle condizioni di fabbrica posso evitare il reset? Pensavo che avere un account già sbloccato mi impedisse di reimpostare.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] stadotek:
so even if i have an old account already unlocked i can't make the change? even restoring the phone to factory conditions can I avoid the reset? I thought that having an account already unlocked prevented me from resetting.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] soul18reaver:
the timer resets if you log off your mi account on your phone, so just use the one that you already have logged on the phone - it will be the fastest

even if I reconnect an already verified account and let the hours go by? ok then I'll wait that sucks. why didn't I wait for the solution with my old account instead of creating a new one? noooooo
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] Giany:
No it is the original account on which I tried the unlock for the first time and on which it gave me the famous error

I managed to unlock my device after moving my SIM card from the first to the second slot. Unlocked with EU account.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] notoriginal10:
Like I said twice above, use the account you last saw a countdown with.

If you haven't logged in with your second account, or you haven't clicked unlock with it, maybe you can use the first account and maybe you don't have to wait the entire 168 hours.

(I switched between two accounts a few times now, it does not start from 168hours again)

ok then wait till wednesday... ;(

Hello Thomas,

I have the Xiaomi Pad 5.

My EU account is at least 2 years old.

I tried to unlock the device two weeks ago, after waiting the time (168h).

Yesterday I change to a new USA account, but Today I change again to my old EU account.

I haven't had to wait for anything.

Thank you.

I've unlocked my bootloader before, so I didn't have to wait the 168 hours again. My device is the Poco X3 Pro.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] avathar:
I went back to my EU account. And now i have 111h to wait. I had 168h on US account. It seems that 111h is 168h minus 57h which is most likely my first try on EU account which ended with "rebind error"
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] vinylmeister:
Didn´t change my account, and, wondering, successfully unlocked now
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] notoriginal10:
You may have misunderstood why you need this account.

You only need it for unlocking once. After that, you can use any account you want and you can add/remove any acount you want.

No waiting, no unlocking after first unlock after 168 hours.

The Mi account is like your Google/Facebook/Instagram account, it is never added in developer options.

You only use developer options to verify you want to use your Mi account to unlock.

After that, you can freely remove it and use your EU account.

Your bootloader is unlocked and your phone does not care which account you use afterwards.

Unlocking deletes everything on your phone, including your accounts.

So if you boot it after unlocking, it asks you to add any account.

The Mi account is only for MIUI functions like "Find my Device" or Mi Cloud.

Most of us only use it one time to unlock the bootloader and never use or add it again.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] stadotek:
maybe we understood each other badly. due to the rebind problem I created a new US account, although I already have an old account where I have already spent 168 hours. I created a new account to unlock with mi unlock. I am asked to let the 168 hours pass. today they solved the problem so my question is: can I cancel the United States account from the ongoing unlocking procedure (168 hours) and link my old account so as not to wait all the hours? I remember my old account after 168 hours already. only this I want to understand so as not to reset the hours or even double the time by switching accounts

Finally I was able to unlock Mi 11 Pro. EU account from Bulgaria.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] notoriginal10:
Yes, we misunderstood each other.

But as I said, you just wait with your US account, unlock your phone with it, then you can use your EU account for Mi services, if you want.

When you unlock your bootloader with your US account, it will be deleted from your phone with all your data.

You can always switch your account, but don't do it now or your timer will reset.

Just wait, unlock, then use any account you want. It makes no difference after unlocking and you don't need any account anymore, unless you lock your bootloader and need to unlock again, I think.

No Problems anymore with Unlocking my F3.

EU-Region (German Account+Number)

Version: 6.5.406.31

Waiting time was over last Sunday. I did not rebind it to a new (US) Account etc.

Sometimes waiting for them to solve the Error works.

OT:

Interesting discussions with the new EU Chat Law etc.

But do not forget guys that is not yet the law and has to pass first and takes (as always) a lot of time to implement EU-wide. I do not think the European market is that important to Xiaomi that they would immediately or at all bow down to every stupid new EU Law...as most companies didn't, especially not immediately. Always a long process this stuff...that's why it so boring and annoying...called politics and laws....lol. :LOL:

hmm strange for me the error from yesterday still comes.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] notoriginal10:
Maybe you haven't added your phone number and device to your Mi account. Check if your number and device show up in your Mi account management. Then go to Mi Unlock Status in developer options and authorize both.

If you never had a countdown, you could try registering a new account with your phone number on your phone, then go to Mi Unlock Status and authorize your phone and SIM combo.

Oh, and also enable "OEM Unlock" in developer options as well, if you haven't already.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] noxxio:
Yes all is correct nothing changed :D

The same error come in the developeroptions too if i try to attach.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] etillxd:
The tool now also tells me that i have to wait 20 hours, which makes sense considering i first tried unlocking it last saturday, also it didn't tell me to reconnect my mi account in the dev. settings this time.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] etillxd:
Also, i tried switching to an US account twice (which didn't solve the issue) and logged out and back in an again from my mi account on my phone multiple times, but it doesn't look like the timer from my original account has been reset.

Just for your informations:

I had the rebind error on my eu account after first unlock try.

Created a us account successfully and switched my phone number to it. Currently had 17 hours left.

Since i like living risky i changed back to my eu account. Since there were some time left and i thought it may be worth a try to spare some of the time.

So linked my phone number again to my eu account. Logged out from the us one on the phone, back into the eu one. Went to the developer options and clicked on mi unlock status and tried to unlock it again.

Bammm down to 6 hours now.

So if you got the rebind error and switched to an us account, don´t worry and switch back to your old one, even if the unlock tool says it will get back to 168h when logging out, it doesn´t.

Hello everyone,

Just wanted to say that it weren't working for me the last weekend but since many people experienced the same issue I have just waited without changing anything about my account. Now, it is working! I suppose they had fixed their servers.

Unlocking finally worked.

I had waited for a week, but I started the timer before the issue was there.

Then when I wanted to unlock it, it gave me the rebind error issue.

So I made a new US account linked it as well to my phone and started timer on that one as well

But now I just switched back to the EU account linked it again in mi unlock status and could unlock it instantly finally.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] ninorastaman:
I confirm that in my case the countdown currently displayed coincides with the day I tried to unlock it for the first (and only) time. So I have to wait until Monday to do it. I always used an EU region account, so I don't dare to change it for less than three days of waiting. 🤞🤞

In my case last friday I tried with spanish account and got rebind error. On sunday I crated a new US account and got 168h waiting time.

Today I switched back to my spanish account and got no waiting time.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] no111one:
Okay, let's just claim Xiaomi as usual has poor software QC and this time made the unlock servers buggy as hell, making them unusable.

From what I saw, there is also a global MIUI user here, not only EEA MIUI users.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] treves1:
with my us account, my contdown to date was about 126 hours.

I wanted to try what would happen if I tried the unlock with my European account again today, result, no "rebind" but I got a new 168 hour counter.

So I reconnected with my old us account, and I (fortunately) got a 126 hour counter again.

Now I stay like this, I don't want to do any more tests, I'll wait.

I was curious and I did these tests.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers] noxxio:
Now that I've got the error that I'm not authorized for the unlock (with my EU Account), I'll wait until sunday, because that's when the waiting time for the US account expires, and if this also fails, the N9P will be passed on to the family and I'm switching to a G Pixel6.
