When we have a new mobile we hope that everything works perfectly and that it has no problems, although however it is not always as we dream. One of the first steps that we recommend doing on Xiaomi phones is to create a Mi account with which we will be able to take advantage of many of its functions, among which we find that of making a backup to the Xiaomi cloud.
These options are not essential but they will make life much easier for us, making it a very important option if we are also going to use the brand’s home automation products. Among the problems that may appear are server errors or account activation problems that can cause us to start mobile with a bad start.
Steps to create the Mi account on the Xiaomi mobile
The process is not complicated at all but we have to follow it step by step to locate where our error or problem is. What we will do is enter Settings> Search for the My Account option and inside we will have the possibility of creating a new account. So far the process should not have failed, errors come later.
- Then the option to add our email will appear.
- At the top we will see the region that we must configure with our country.
- Later we enter the password and enter the security code.
- The next thing will be to access the email and activate it.
This is where the problems that can come from two parts begin to arrive and we are going to try to solve them.
I do not receive the confirmation email from Xiaomi
In case we do not receive any email with which to activate the account we have just created, it may be a server failure, something very common in Xiaomi. Searching in the purchase forums we find infinite drops of Xiaomi servers that affect products, services and also when creating a new account. In this case we have the option of letting it pass later, a time that can take several days or resort to changing the region.
To change the region when creating an account on Xiaomi, we must not only change it on the screen that appears when we register, we also have to go to Settings> Additional settings> Region. From here we will choose India, a server that does not usually fail so much, but in case it repeats we can try China, where server repairs take less time. Do not forget that in the registration you also have to make the change and then the confirmation email will arrive in another language, although you only have to click on the activation button.
My account does not work on mobile
Although we receive the configuration email and we can activate it, there is a Xiaomi error that can confuse us because we cannot log in for the first time on a new mobile . To solve this we only have to access a computer or mobile with a desktop version to the official Xiaomi website . In case the problem continues or the confirmation code is not sent, we can also register from the same website.
After having accessed the computer for the first time, we just have to repeat the process on the mobile to now be able to log in without any problem.
