And you created xiaomi account only now when got phone? I think wait is needed for new accounts only. Because i have 7 days wait time and it says do not add new xiaomi account to phone or you will wait again. So this is related to account NOT phone.

So,
I used to have a Redmi Note 4 (mido) unlocked with an mi account.

Recently I get an used Mi9 from a friend, which was not unlocked.

I used the classic way for unlocking, with the Last Version of mi unlock and my old mi account (at least 3 years) and it unlocked my Mi 9 instantly.

I guess I'll have to wait too.

XIaomi is becoming bullsh*t! My account was registered for unlocking 5-6 Years ago. It doesn't allow me to unlock more than 1 devices in a month!

Edit: I'm using Poco X3 now. Previously unlocked Mi8 but it did unlocks instantly without any wait.

yup, it's like that, and that's the way it is. I had one Xiaomi in my life, was happy and said no more Xiaomi because of this, and i adhere to this rule til now. No time to waste.

Bootloader unlocked after only 3 days !

I got my Xiaomi Mi 9T the 8th April and I tried to unlock it : 168 hours left. I came here to find a solution but no one worked so I checked everyday how time left I had and it finally unlocked. I can't tell how, I just used my phone normally. Good luck there !

How long did you "finally unlocked"?

Hi:

My experience, right now:

When unlocking bootloader of a used xiaomi mi mix 2s i have received today, using last version of mi unlock (miflash_unlock-en-5.5.224.24) i get "Please unlock 168 hours later" message when using my eternal xiaomi account.

Seems Xiaomi is limiting the number of devices i can unlock using this account so I've created a new account associated to a new telephone number and i could unlock the bootloader using the same miflash_unlock version.

I suppose the limit is monthly because it was the third xiaomi device i tried to unlock with the xiaomi accout i use always and last one i couldn't until i changed the account.


Hope it can help.

Was worth a try, but okay will wait for 7 dayssss
Device: Redmi note 9 pro
Mi Account: 6 years old

For anyone who's late to this, there is no need to wait for unlocking for redmi note 4. I created new mi account and in less than five minutes unlocked bootloader with latest mi unlock tool.

Hi all!

I got this nice phone yesterday. I made a Mi account about 3 month ago, hoping that when i get the phone i can unlock it immediately. Sadly, MiFlash Unlock said that "You need to wait 360 hours..." etc.

But i found a way that could unlock immediately. :good:


- First of all, you need to download latest MiFlash Unlock. Get it here. (You need to update it in the app itself, just to be sure you have the latest version.)
- Sign in, Install latest drivers, connect Mi account & device etc.
- Go for unlocking, to the point where it says "You need to wait..."



Now the fun part:
I was reading guides and stuff in this forum, where i found a thread about 360 hours of waiting. There was a comment by @arddy1 (Thank you) which solved this issue.

- Download this MiFlash Unlock tool (This is an older version.)
- Sign in, go for unlocking (It'll still wipe everything so make backups)
- Reboot
- Enjoy


It's not 100% working but you can give it a try.


Hope i helped! Happy flashing :good:

great info thanks very much

This is my last Xiaomi phone. Wait to unlock the device that I own and payed money is an overcome. I guess going underground these days is the right choice. Can someone advice good rooted unlocked etc phone to buy? I can root myselft but I DONT WANT TO WAIT 7 DAYS for this. Bullshit, f*ck Xiaomi.

 

[osys]

F*ck this Xiaomi once and forever. They sell device that you don't own, what's the reason to buy? (retorical question)

 

[osys]

Do I own my Android device? And do not!

Devices that was released more than 2 years old is usually granted to be unlocked immediately. No wonder your Mi 8 was unlocked immediately.

For anyone who's late to this, there is no need to wait for unlocking for redmi note 4. I created new mi account and in less than five minutes unlocked bootloader with latest mi unlock tool.

Same. It's released in 2017.

Mi unlock is the only way. You don't like it? Try new Oneplus or Pixel, they grant unlock immediately after you buy them.
