[SOLVED] Redmi note 7 factory reset

[Tim Rummler]

So I was just trying to flash Lineage OS on my new redmi noet 7, since MIUI kinda sucks, and it didnt really seem to work. So after a few tries and restarts, my phone started requesting the Password for an Email address I entered into my lock screen when I first got the phone, in case Id ever loose it and someone would find the person could message me. But as it turns out, the m in my email addresses .com is missing and the phone keeps asking for the emails password to start Android instead of the usual PIN code. I figured I should just try wiping it completely, but after a lot of wasted time and energy, I still havent found a method to factory reset it. Please help, I know this is a very specific issue, but maybe there is someone here who could just help me out. Thanks in advance
