If your Xiaomi smartphone is showing the “This Device Is Locked” message, you may be unable to access the phone after a factory reset or software restoration. This protection is connected to Xiaomi’s account and device-security system and is designed to prevent unauthorized access to a lost device.
For legitimate owners who have purchased a second-hand Xiaomi phone, forgotten their account credentials, or are experiencing a legitimate account-lock problem, getting professional assistance can be much easier than repeatedly trying unreliable methods found online.
What Does “This Device Is Locked” Mean on Xiaomi?
The “This Device Is Locked” screen generally indicates that the Xiaomi device is associated with a Mi/Xiaomi Account and requires account verification before normal setup can continue.
A factory reset does not necessarily remove this protection. In many cases, the device can still request the previously associated account because the security system is designed to remain active after a reset.
Common situations include:
- Forgetting the Xiaomi Account password
- Buying a used Xiaomi phone that remains linked to the previous owner
- Resetting a phone without first removing the Xiaomi Account
- Software or firmware-related problems
- Being unable to complete device activation
- Account-verification problems after a system reset
