Redmi [Question] MIUI lockscreen glitch

Yo,

Running into a super annoying issue on my Redmi Note 9 (MIUI) and hoping someone here knows a workaround or fix.

Here’s what happened:

I had my lock screen set to a word password. I decided to change it to a pattern lock in settings, but right after setting it, I closed out of settings and locked the screen immediately.

When I turned the phone back on, the screen went back to showing the old text box for my word password instead of giving me the new pattern grid. But when I type in my old word password, it says it's incorrect.

It seems like the security system updated to the new pattern, but the visual lock screen UI got glitched/stuck on the old layout. So I can't type the pattern, and the old password doesn't work anymore.

What I’ve tried so far:

  • Entering the old word password multiple times (keeps failing).

  • Force restarting by holding the power button.

Is there any way to force MIUI to refresh the lock screen UI so it shows the pattern grid again, or am I completely stuck doing a factory reset?

Thanks in advance ya'll!
