    My Xbox is region locked after resetting. How to unlock it?


    I reset my Xbox One S, which converted to Chinese language and region. I can't change language and region because there is no option in the drop-down list. I can't download games but can't play as it needs Chinese national credentials.

    :)

    You cannot change the region on a China locked system. It's only for use within China

    If you are trying to use a VPN to bypass location or region codes, it will no longer work in some regions and your account will be locked for 90 days with an incorrect region error or storage error every time you "travel" with your VPN. This lock cannot be unlocked manually and will be automatically unlocked after the period.

    How long is the review process for a suspended account?

    I have received a response a few days after posting and they told me to verify my account again. I did what they asked and reset my password again only to find my account is STILL LOCKED! It seems like no matter how many times I verify my account to be unlocked it remains locked. I don't know what to do at this point as each time I try to sign in, it only directs me to fill out an unlock request and I've done it multiple times only for it to not work. Is there a way I can contact someone directly about this issue or is there really no way to get my account unlocked?

    Anyway to reset my own gamerscore?

    What do you mean, they re-lock after awhile? You mean, after I get reset, and unlock a achievement I earned before, it will randomly go away after I earn it?
