How to sign out of Gmail on Android?

This issue deserves special attention, since the application does not provide a traditional exit from mail.

An alternative solution would be to disable synchronization. To do this you need:

  • Open the Gmail application.
  • Click on the three horizontal stripes in the upper left corner.
  • In the menu that opens, select “Settings”, then click on your email address.

In the new window, uncheck the box next to “Gmail Sync.”

Account creation

Registering an account is quite simple, there are 3 methods, let's look at each of them.

Option 1 - Registration in the browser via email

We fill in the data: country of residence and your email address. Previously, you also had to fill in your date of birth, but at the time of writing this article, this was no longer required.

If you do not want to receive news and offers from Xiaomi (in Chinese), then uncheck the box next to the inscription “Stay up to date with news and offers from the Mi Store”.

Click “Create Mi Account”.

On the next page, create and enter a password twice; it must consist of at least 8 characters and include both Latin letters and numbers.

Enter the captcha (random text from the picture) in the next window and click “Submit”.

Registration is completed. The login is your email (phone number), and the password is the one you entered during registration.

Then you must confirm your email, to which the letter will arrive within 30 minutes, do not close the registration page, it may be needed if the letter does not arrive. You just need to log into your mail in another tab and check for the letter. In the letter itself, click on the confirmation link.

After logging into your user profile, we recommend adding your mobile phone number to the profile; if you forget your password, you can recover it through the number.

Option 2 - Registration via mobile number

Go to the registration page

Click on the button below that says “Create using a phone number.”

Select the country if it is not selected, fill in the phone number, without +7, enter the captcha (code from the picture) and click “Create Mi Account”.

You will receive an SMS with a code on your phone, enter this code and click “Next”; if the SMS does not arrive for a long time, click “Resend code”.

If you have entered the correct code, you will then be prompted to set your password; it must consist of at least 8 characters and include both Latin letters and numbers.

If everything is done correctly, you will see a smiley face on the next page.

Your mi account has been created!

Option 3 - Registration through the application

This method works for firmware based on miui 7. If for some reason you are not able to use a browser to register, you can register through the application in the same way. On your smartphone, select “Accounts” - “Mi account” - “Register mi account”.

In the application, click “register”

Enter your phone number, after which you will be asked to send an SMS while roaming to complete registration, if you are ready to pay for this SMS, then click “ok”.

Your account is ready to go.

Option 4 - Registration through settings

This feature appeared in recent versions of miui (8.9). You need to go to settings and select “Mi account”.

In this case, you will need to enter your email and come up with a password, then you will need to enter a captcha and after that you will receive an email with a link to activate your account.

Next, you have two options (option 1 is popular):

Then on the login page, click “Other methods” and select login via email, enter the address with a password and select “Login”.

Next, you will need to give your account access to various phone services.

Congratulations, you have successfully registered an account and logged in.

Remember that resetting the settings will delete all data from the internal memory, including your Google account, accounts of other services and instant messengers, applications, photos, music, contacts and other data. If you have created a backup copy, then there is no danger: when you add an account to another phone, the saved information will become available after synchronization.

You can perform a Hard Reset without logging in: for example, through the Recovery Menu, Meiz recovery mode or Xiaomi engineering menu. But these methods are justified in using only if you do not have access to the system.

If you do not have access to your profile, you should go by changing the password. This is the original version of the action on the phone. The sequence of operations on how to log out of your google account on xiaomi looks like this:

These actions will remove the user from the old profile. If the operation has not been performed, you need to go to your account. Next you will need to make a forced connection.

What to do if the problem is not resolved

One of the additional ways to clear your Xiaomi smartphone of all accounts is to enter Recovery mode. First you need to remove all SIM and memory cards from your smartphone and then:

  • turn off the device;
  • press the power button simultaneously with the volume up button and hold until the “Mi” logo appears on the display;
  • A language selection window will open, in which preference should be given to English (the Chinese developers did not install the Russian language). You can do this with the power button. She is always responsible for the choice;

Reset the device

An option that does not work for everyone is to try a full reset (wipe) of the device through recovery, this deletes all your data from the phone, this method does not provide a 100% guarantee that the phone will not ask you for a password again. Instructions on how to reset xiaomi can be read here.

Device firmware

If resetting does not help, then perhaps flashing the device's firmware will help. It helped some users, but not all. Devices with a Snapdragon processor must be flashed via fastboot, miflash, and for MTK – via flashtool. Judging by some reviews on the forums, you need to use an old version of the firmware to remove the MI account check when booting your smartphone. It is advisable to use a version up to MIUI 7; if there is not one for your device, then we use, for example, version 7.0.2.0. Unfortunately, we have no confirmation of the functionality of this method. It is quite possible that after flashing the firmware, the smartphone will not ask for a password at first, but as soon as you connect it to the Internet, it may require it from you, since the account is hardwired into the hardware of the smartphone.

Deleting an account in MI Cloud

This method will allow you to delete your MI account from Xiaomi. However, after completing all of the above steps, it may take several days to complete the account deletion procedure on Xiaomi servers. If, a couple of days after deletion, the system continues to request a password for the previously deleted account, then you should contact Xiaomi technical support.

Do the following:

  1. Click on “Login to MI account” and log in to the resource;
  2. Select "Delete";
  3. On the screen that opens, enter the ID and password;
  4. A page will open with a list of materials lost during future deletion. Place a confirmation checkbox below and click on “Delete MI account”;
  5. In some cases, a verification page for your email (phone) may open. Click on “Send” to receive a verification code by email or phone;
  6. After confirming the verification, click on “Submit” – “Delete Account”.

Google Account Recovery

I would like to devote a separate section of the article to restoring your Google account. It is quite possible that as a result of incorrect user actions or for some other reason, a command was given not to disable, but to delete Google data on the server. It's okay - according to official information, even a deleted account can be restored within 2-3 weeks. To do this, you need to go to Google's support page, and then follow the instructions posted there to recover your data.

Summarizing all of the above situations, we can safely say that changing credentials on a smartphone is a procedure that, although complicated at first glance, is accessible to the average user. It is enough to carefully follow all the procedures, and also do not forget to save all the necessary user data on the computer’s hard drive.

Adding another account

  1. Launch Play Market .
  2. Wait until it informs you that you do not have a Google profile.
  3. Click "Add existing" or "Create new" , depending on whether you have another account.
  4. Enter your credentials to log in to your device.

There is another way: return to the “Accounts” in Settings and click on the plus “Add” . Then all you have to do is select Google and enter your email with password. After adding a new account, do not forget to reconfigure the Play Market so that applications do not update automatically.

Removing a Mi account from a smartphone

Removal is required in two cases: if the owner sells his device or if he does not remember the password. In the first case, it is easier to cope with the protection installed by Xiaomi. In the second case, you will need third-party software or you will have to perform recovery.

Deleting from a smartphone is only possible if the user remembers his login details. You can unlink your account from your email and number - this will be useful when selling. Or you can completely delete it without the possibility of recovery.

Once the entry disappears, it will no longer be possible to enter any program using it. This includes the Mi Fit app stopping working.

Subject to access

The first method is equally suitable for any device, from Redmi 3S to Redmi 4X. Mi Account settings are the same on all gadgets. This is due to the fact that they have a shell from Xiaomi installed - it is called MIUI and allows you to access all services with the Mi prefix.

You can unlink your account like this:

  1. Remember your ID number and password.
  2. Go to the settings of the Xiaomi smartphone on which you previously logged into this entry.
  3. Open Mi Account.
  4. Scroll down the page and click on the delete button.
  5. The program will ask you to enter a password.

If everything is done correctly, then after a few seconds a message will appear on your smartphone indicating that the deletion has been completed. As a result, the account remains existing in the system, but the phone number and email are unlinked from it. This means that you can link the data of the new owner when selling the smartphone. only possible through the Xiaomi website.

To completely delete your account on Xiaomi, you will need to do the following:

After this, the account is permanently deleted. Disadvantage of this method: the phone may start asking for a password for an account that no longer exists. To prevent this from happening, you must first log out of Mi Account in all applications.

How to log out of your account without deleting your registration

First, let's look at how to unlink your phone account.

There are three ways.

Option 1

Select “My Account” - “Actions on Devices and Account Security”

Next, you need to look at what device your registration was used on in order to disable it. “View connected devices”, select the required one and close access.

When closing, the system notifies you about exiting the applications in which the account address was specified.

Confirm system requests and log out of your account.

Option 2

The second method is suitable when logging in from different devices. For security and privacy, we recommend changing the password in the settings, which will lead to data loss on all gadgets.

Now no one will be able to use your account without your knowledge.

Option 3

A more radical method of changing credentials is the function of restoring the phone to factory settings. It should be used only when the two previous methods did not work.

Attention! User data, applications and other personal information will be deleted from the device. Make sure everything you need is saved. To log back into your profile, you simply need to enter your password.

How to delete Mi account if you don't know the password

It often happens that users cannot, in principle, know the password. Why? For example, a smartphone was purchased second-hand or someone registered a Mi account in a sales area for a new smartphone. Moreover, the user may not even be aware of this, using the smartphone for some time, until, for example, he reflashes the smartphone, after which he must enter the password for his Mi account. And this is truly a huge problem. What to do?

If the smartphone was purchased secondhand, contact the previous owner for help. You can use it to try to unlink your account from your smartphone.

If the smartphone was new and someone managed to add an account, try contacting the store, although the likelihood that they will help you tends to zero.

Finally, the best way if your Xiaomi smartphone was purchased new is to contact support. The main support address is also sometimes addressed to [email protected] or You must have receipts, IMEI data, and the serial number of the smartphone on hand. The correspondence will probably take some time, but the likelihood of the device being unlinked from your account is high.

There are many ways on the Internet to disassemble a smartphone, close contacts, etc. We won’t talk about these methods, because if anyone does this, it’s only service centers for a fee.

Is it possible to recover a Google account?

Many people make a decision quickly and later regret it. They know how to delete a Google account on Xiaomi, follow the instructions, and after a while they want to restore access to the profile. In case of complete deletion, the account can be returned if a little time has passed since the considered actions. After recovery, you can use the account to log into Google services, applications and other sites to which the user was “linked”.

To do this, follow the link accounts.google.com/signin/recovery and answer several questions from the system. Follow these simple tips here:

  1. When prompted for a password, provide the last one you remember. If nothing comes to mind, try guessing the number.
  2. Answer the security questions.
  3. Remember when you created a Google account on your phone or PC.
  4. Log in to the email service that was linked to the deleted profile.
  5. When asked why there is no access to your account, indicate one of the following reasons - traveling, receiving error messages, forgot your password, etc.

After recovery, create a new password and try not to forget it. At the same time, do not rush into action. If you decide to delete your account, think again.

How to delete an account

Below we will describe ways to delete an account directly from your phone.

Please note - we are not talking about erasing your data on the Google server and irretrievably losing information! Now we are considering a way to unlink a Google account from a phone

Through settings

The settings of the smartphone operating system provide a section responsible for the accounts registered in the device. This statement applies not only to Google “accounts”, but also to Yandex records, telegram registration and, of course, Mi account. Accordingly, through the settings section you can manage all this data.

Since the information is hidden deep in the depths of the menu, for a successful search you need to remember two components of the full path.

The first part of the path: setup - accounts - synchronization. This section allows you to configure the order of synchronization of various accounts, information about which is contained in the smartphone. In addition, you can add new “accounts”.

The second part of the full path: the “other accounts” section at the bottom of the screen. Select Google, then tap on the round “more” button with an ellipsis and... either delete it, or synchronize it. In our case, we delete it.

There is another possible course of action when a deletion error occurs. You need to create another one in the smartphone operating system - a new Google account. Now, the old one is easily removed, and only one, the new one, remains in the system.

Via hard reset

In fact, resetting the gadget to factory settings is the easiest way to “unlink” the gadget from an existing Google account. But at the same time, it is necessary to remember that during the “hard reset” procedure, the operating system deletes all user data - from music, photos and phone book, to registration data for various services.

The corresponding menu item in the settings: Advanced settings - Recovery and reset - Reset settings - Personal data.

So, a hard reset of the phone will lead to the inevitable and 100% reliable removal of the google account from the device! But at the same time, all the information associated with this account remains on the Google server - for example, applications previously installed on a specific device.

By deleting accounts.db

A very non-trivial, but interesting and fairly reliable way to unlink your Google account. So, you need to have:

  • A clear understanding of what you are doing;
  • Ruth is right about the phone.

The procedure is as follows. Using any file manager that supports root user rights (preferably root explorer), go to the /data/system/ folder and find the accounts.db file there. We remove it and reboot the device.

After the reboot, Android will not associate this phone with any Google account. Accordingly, you can enter another existing user record or register a new one.

In different versions of Android OS, the location of the accounts.db file may differ, but the meaning of the actions performed and the result remains the same.

Logging out of your account by changing your password

Finally, another very simple and original way to disable Google recording on a smartphone without losing user data. So, initially we register a new Google account through a web browser. Next, again through the browser, change the old password.

The main thing is not to get confused in the logins and passwords of the old and new accounts!

Finally, the fun part! After changing the password of the old account, immediately the first time the smartphone tries to synchronize data, a prompt will appear on the screen to enter the password or change the account. Right now you need to specify the details of the new account and, thus, log out of the Google account that you had before.

On devices with “pure” Android, this operation is quite simple. In the settings, look for the “Accounts” item, see “Google”, click on it, then tap on the “Delete” or “Exit” button. The account is deleted only on the phone.

But we need to log out of our Google account on Xiaomi, so the situation is a little different.

By the way, the above situation applies to Xiaomi phones running “pure Android”. These include Mi A1, Mi A2 and Mi A2 Lite.

Let's start with versions of MIUI 8 and 9, which were originally on the Xiaomi Redmi 4x. There is a slightly similar situation to the one described above. We go to the settings, scroll down, and see the inscription “Other accounts”. We go there, and a list appears, among which is the Google we need. Click on the desired item. At the very bottom there will be an inscription “More”. There are additional functions there, so click there. Two options will appear: synchronize and delete. Select deletion.

Now let's go through the 10th version of MIUI. Since the Chinese have slightly changed the location of certain items, finding the “other accounts” item becomes problematic. As it turned out, this item was hidden in the “Synchronization” section in the settings.

So, to delete a Google account on MIUI 10, we do the following:

  • Let's go to settings.
  • Scroll down a little and go to the “Synchronization” item.
  • We see a list of all accounts on the phone, select “Google”.
  • Click “More” at the bottom, then “Delete account”.

Note. If you have two or more accounts on your phone, then after logging into Google, two email addresses from your Google accounts may appear. We go to the one we need and delete it.

We have discussed the main way to remove a Google account from your phone. But there is an even simpler and more banal one - resetting all settings. To reset all settings, you need to go to settings, find the “Advanced settings” item, go there, and select “Backup and reset”. We confirm our actions and wait until the operation is completed.

Note. In addition to your Google account, all information located on the phone’s memory will be deleted from the phone. The data on the SD card will remain, so just in case, we make a backup copy for recovery, a copy of the numbers and all necessary data.

Complete removal of an account from the system

Let's consider the option of completely deleting the account from the phone and the applications associated with it. The Google system provides the ability to remove individual services, such as Gmail, Google +, as well as the YouTube, Google Pay and Play Games applications.

If you still decide to delete the data completely, then go to the phone settings.

  • "Settings"
  • "Google"
  • "Google Account"
  • "Account settings"

The next step is to remove the credentials from your Xiaomi device.

Deleting a profile will result in the loss of all Google Play content offered, Gmail mail data, you will not be able to store media files in Drive and, moreover, the data associated with this registration will be deleted from the device.

Return to your phone settings menu and go to:

“Settings” - “Synchronization” - “Mi Cloud”

After making sure that the necessary data is saved, go back and select “Delete Google Account.”

The system notifies you of possible consequences associated with deleting a profile.

There are different ways to sign out of your Google account. The main thing is to be careful and do not trust your personal data to strangers.

Having considered various options for logging out of your Google account, we can summarize that its absence significantly limits the capabilities of the smartphone. Everyone's priorities are different, be it updates or high-quality applications or storing information on the cloud.

How to log out of your Mi account on your phone?
