    steps taken so far: updated MIUI to 7.2 from 7.0 using Mi PC Suite

  2. prompting me to enter Mi account password
    but no provision to type as there’s only an eye on right end
    keyboard doesn’t pop up here…

    • I think your android system is corrupt. If like that only one way to solve it, that is flashing your device with stock rom/firmware. I don’t have a tutorial to flash it.

  3. Thank you for replying!

    I tried this http://en.miui.com/thread-257227-1-1.html
    but DON’T see any device on opening Miflash….any thoughts

    Also tried http://en.miui.com/thread-235865-1-1.html
