Sometimes, a message with an authorization code is sent to your email or phone number. This indicates that you can restore the “brick” yourself. The “Mi Authorized EDL Account” box may also pop up. In our case, the program reported that the computer is bound to the account, so you can safely reflash. After a few seconds, we see an answer on the screen, asking if the account is authorized.

An inscription pops up, notifying you that the check for the current computer is about to begin.

At the bottom, click on the big green “Login” button. The tied-up email address or phone number will also work.

Enter the login (Mi ID) and password from the account.

The application may start in an incomprehensible language, so switch to English on the upper right side.

A window appears in which you need to log in to your Mi account.

The system will ask for permission to open the program.

If you don’t want to get a non-working locked device – be sure to authorize it!Īre you updating officially “by air”? Then you don’t need to manipulate your account at all. This has become especially relevant lately when the company has increased the bootloader unlocking time and introduced an anti-blocking system.
