Hey, have you been able to fix it? I'm having the same problem on a Redmi 1s, bought (new) one and a half years ago! It's really strange, it asks me for a different (unknown) account to activate it.

NOPE only . I can only use it just to make calls . No data usage at all. Just get locked out if I do connect to Wi-Fi or use data. Weird thing is I didn't even register for aa mijo account with the phone.

Well, I have some good news. The phone became fully operative after flashing a non Miui rom (I've installed CyanogenMod 12.1)

I had the same problem, you can let an sms be sent to you with your password. If it isn't your correct phone number you can change the phone number of an account. Or you simply delete micloud.apk.
