Question Mi 11x automatically reset

[amjath]

Hi guys,

I am using mi11x Indian version running miui 12.0.4 global rom (stock) unlocked boot loader. It was unlocked few days ago. Today all of a sudden my phone was factory reset automatically in my pocket wiping everything.

Can I know by any means why it happened?

Thanks for response in advance.

I have set up the device to my organization account. They would have done this by remote reset?

Will a hardware issue triggers it?

Is there a possibility that phone tries to unlock inside pocket and reset automatically in MIUI?

It's a possibility, depending on the policy of your organization, I have setup mine into 15 tries and the phone will reset and wipe-out everything.

That sounds to be valid. Does it happen on the lockscreen itself?

If you have setup the screen to wake up, it could wake up in your pocket then by moving around you could be registering screen touches and log in attempts.
