Screen flashes red before locking? - Xiaomi Mi MIX Questions & Answers

I press lock and the screen flashes red then turns off. Hasn't happend on my previous S3 and G3. Is this a problem or should I not be worried? I can provide video if needed. The phone still works and is all completely fine it's just this.
MIUI Version 8.0.12.0. Chinese Stable ROM. I've had other people tell me this hasn't happened to them so I'm confused :\
I was on a vendor rom and I certainly didn't seem to notice it then but I might have still been happening. Could it be a software issue?

Red screen
Hello. I have Xiaomi mi 5s plus and the same thing is happening to me, when I turn off the screen, it flashes red just before locking.
Have you been able to find the source of the issue, is the phone still working

I've just noticed that my Mi MIX also flashes red before turning off the screen. Having said that, I haven't noticed any abnormalities that affects the phone yet. It seems like it's just a colouring issue before turning off the screen. No biggie.
Can anyone enlighten me on this matter? Thanks

In my opinion it's just a part of weird turning off animation which is brought recently. I realised that recently, yet not that serious observation like you did lol. I guess nothing to worry about.
Mi MIX
7.4.14 Épic

Stopped happening when I used the Resurrection Remix ROM for the Mix, so I guess it's just a MIUI issue, not a hardware issue.

Yup, I can confirmed that it's a MIUI bug. Just flashed the Resurrection Remix Rom, and the red flashing thing has stopped.

Normal in MIUI. Crist, what a detail that you observed, haha

I have Xiaomi Mi Note 3 and the same thing is happening to me. I have been suspicious of tempered glass or hardware. I was wrong.
Miui Version: 9 I 7.12.21
PS: I installed Resurrection Remix ROM but screen still flashed red before locking.

Check developer settings are turned off!

capacitive buttons not working mi5 lineageos

Hi folks,
i'm having trouble with my capacitive buttons when using a foil or tempered glas on mi mi5 with official Lineage OS. In the Lineage OS support thread bgcngm say the problem should be fixed since ~15/01. For me it is not. Tried all different kinds of foils. On Lineage OS IRC they said I should give logs to the maintainer so he can debug but I cant post in the Lineage OS support thread
Reply from dev regarding the buttons in los thread:
Most likely you have a Mi 5 assembled with a LGD panel. This was a known problem, originated by the fact that the kernel source code release by Xiaomi is quite old. Touchscreen driver probably got updated (firmware was for sure) in their internal releases to deal better with those touchscreen/panels combo. Although, thanks to @s3zam the firmware was recently updated and this issue should have been attenuated. Are you still experiencing it in the official builds?
Hi underko,
Yes, capacitive buttons are still not working. I'm on the latest nightly 31/1.
Same here on 06.02 nightly. I have 3/32 variant.
Same problem
02/06 didn't changed anything. Capacitive buttons are still not working at all.
In general I think they were working for a while after flashing but stopped soon. While working their sensitivity was very low in my opinion. But I'm not 100% sure.
Other roms
Other roms like Mokee and RR have the same problem (sorry for my very bad english:silly
Did anybody manage to solve this issue? I tried reporting it on LOS's bug tracker but right now, they only accept regressive bug reports.
For me its still unsolved.

Do you have a case/screen protector?
It seems that it might have to do with grounding. The issue wasn't as persistent when I removed the case.
EDIT: Flashing xiaomi.eu fixed the issue completely for me. So I suppose it is a software bug after all.
i have the same issue too, help
Guys did you try with Xceed kernel or DragonXia

yape tried these 2 kernels, but no luck, issue still persists.
actually my issue is on the recent app/menu button, the touch sensitivity seems low (although im not apply any screen protector).. pressed it 10 times, only 2 times was responded !
Mi 5 comes with either JDI or LGD display, check which one you have. LGD display faces problems of unresponsive capacitive buttons on Lineage based Roms.
I have JDI display with tempered glass and the capacitive buttons are generally responsive.
yes, i have LGD
i have the same problem with Resurrection Remix. sometimes the buttons are working but most time not.
would it be a solution to change to an aosp rom?
same problem
same problem! 14.1
The ****ty solution I found was just to use/enabled the on screen software buttons.
Hoping to get an email one day with someone saying the physical buttons finally work. Not keeping my hopes up.
mine has a LGD panel. Hardware buttons works for me. I'm on lineage OS 4/4/17 build.
I think it is part software bug and part to do with the quality of the tempered glass you install. because first I bought a cheap glass from ebay and hardware buttons stopped responding while I was on MIUI. Now I have nillikin one and hardware buttons works fine.

Weird preforment issue

So I have a redmi 4a and recently I decided to replace my original screen to some new one,
Ok that's pretty normal but what isn't normal is that when I started using my phone touch was really lagi
I was thinking that I have broken screen but the so mysterious thing about this story is that isuue has now almost completely gone. But the weirder thing is when I restart my phone every animation is smooooth 60fps, but when I lock and unlock it becomes normal 15-30fps. Personally I think that is some xiaomi crap that doesn't load just after restart.
I would be very happy to hear what miui devs have to say. Miui is my favorite Android skin but that's rElLy weird. (Miui 10.2, 16gb)

Proximity sensor doesn't work in call. Autobrightness sensor also glitch.

Currently using PixelExperience Plus ROM. Was using HavocOS before this. There were similar issues in both the roms.. The proximity sensor just won't work during calls. Phone needs a restart to fix this.. goes back to problematic in a short while..
The autobrightness sensor issue is less frustrating.. waking up the device the brightness gets stuck at about 50%. The slider does nothing.. locking the screen and waking up again solves it. Minor issue..
But.. does anyone have a fix?
Same problem here with latest oficial rom. Randomly screen goes black in a call although the phone is on a table.
Same problem here
Why do Xiaomi seem to have such a problem with proximity sensors?
The one on my Note 7 doesn't work properly and a google search reveals complaints about sensors on many models.
It's not as if they are rocket science any more.
Could this also be the reason when I receive a call the phone screen on some occasions didn't even light up and I have to double tap to see who's calling. I really hope it's something they can fix.
Did anyone get a fix? I still have this goddamn problem! Even with the latest evolution x rom or pixel experience rom (tried the latest version released like days back for both roms). This problem started right after I unlocked my bootloader and flashed a custom ROM and the problem is present in EVERY custom rom that I've tried. Please help me out with a fix as this is really annoying and the phone is practically useless. As soon as I make a call or get a call my display simply shuts down and doesn't switch on until 30 secs after the call ends. So my display is basically off for easy 2-3 minutes. Can't use my phone then. This sucks when I've dialled a wrong number or want to cut the call myself because I can't do any of that!

Always on display. Sametimes it's help but it's probably fault of ambient light sensor or screen.
It is the same If aod Off
Not good
That's a common thing with faulty oled screens, it is a hardware issue
I have the same flashing screen when I turn the screen off before the aod is displayed. It does not happen all the time. Turning off aod does not help. I doubt that it is a hardware issue as the flashing started after updating to MIUI 11 - at least for me.
I have also this problem, started a while ago when I was on MIUI 10 after I installed some kind of dark theme
This indeed looks like a AOD fault cause turning it off solves the problem, and the latest version of AOD with custom picture customization, reduced this issue for me
But it also seems like it mostly happens when the ambient light is low so the automatic brightness reduces the screen light and AOD starts to flash
I hope it won't be a hardware problem
One other thing that I want to mention is sometimes it goes really bad and the screen starts flashing for a long time, in this case phone seems to become unresponsive as not touch and not the fingerprint sensor and infrared camera doesn't work at all

It is used for past time if you're asking
So a little update on the flashing screen situation
I disabled auto brightness and set the brightness a little below middle of brightness bar and so far so good. No flashing here for a while
Also disabling the AOD completely solves the problem
Another update on the state of this flashing issue, after Android 10 update haven't seen any flashing so far, AOD display works fine, light sensor and automatic brightness work just fine.
I guess it was a software issue after all
I hope you have solved it. Do you have the anti-flick on?

Nope I don't
Anyone else who has this issue:
Try disabling hardware overlays in developer options, also check to see if the Game driver option within Developer options is set to default. Although its possible that this could be the beginnings of a hardware issue, it could also be a software related issue.
If none of the things that I mentioned work, i would try reflashing the stock fastboot rom. ( must be fastboot version)
Similar happened to me but i think this is not recoverable.

No matter what i do, it only flashes and nothing else is visible. Device purchased about 1.5 years ago.

You need to return to stock using a fastboot rom, using a recovery rom will not work.
Most likely you have corrupted files. but sure it could be an hardware issue, especially if you have dropped the phone or installed something to increase the refresh rate. If you flashed a refresh rate mod, then you need to flash the DBTO image from the fastboot stock rom.

I have TWRP installed and thought of checking it out but it simply flashes there as well. Right now i have the display on, set never sleep in Developer options and simply keeping it up until new phone arrives. Once i am on new phone, i will try factory reset on this first and go from there i think. Not sure how to get to fastboot when display is not working.
Due to such weird nature that nothing really helps i tend to think that this is HW issue.
EDIT : Turned off display by accident (because phone call happened) and now it's back to flashing disco with absolutely nothing working. Fastboot (power + lower volume key together) is of course flashing as well so inacessible.
Happened to me too. Turned off AoD, restarted, turned on and it was ok for a while. Now flashed again. Dont know what is causing this :/

I also got the same issue on my dipper. The only solution that works perfect is by flashing to LineageOS 17.1. I know it's an OLED screen faulty but Lineage really fixes it. Been using Lineage for a few months and never have this display issue again. Other custom ROMs can't fix this display issue.

Screen flicker

Hello, I've had my Redmi K20 pro phone for almost a year and I'm running on Resurrection Remix for like something like 9 months.
Recently I've had screen flickering greenish or pinkish colors when things like a messenger bubble pops up, when I use the fingerprint to unlock, sometime just like that when I'm using it. I haven't installed anything recently other then games from the play store.
To me it would seem like the screen is starting to die, but I've only had it for a year so it seems a bit early for that. Anyone else has this problem or knows a solution? Will I need to replace the screen?
Thanks!
