I just purchased my mi 5 a day before and I've noticed that the output through the jack is too low since it packs the hexagon processor it is supposed to be pretty good at audio right... Currently Ian in stable 8.2 ROM...I've got a suggestion to change to Dev ROM ..Will it improve the sound. And void my warranty??Or is there anything else I can do without flashing any ROM thank you

You said "poor" audio in the title and "low audio" in the description. I have a fix for both cases. Switching between official ROMs does not void warranty, but I am not sure on their policy for root.
1. From the low audio output, I gather you are using the Global ROM (Dev/Stable) which uses a different audio configuration file as the China ROM (Dev/Stable). To fix this you will need to temporarily root your phone and replace the audio config from the Global ROM with the China ROM's file (which I'll attach) located in root/system/etc called mixer_paths_tasha.xml. If you do not want to root your phone then you have to use the China ROM.
2. If Audio quality is not up to par, you have to systemlessly root your phone, install Magisk, install the Viper4Android module and mount it, and then the Viper4Android app. From there you can tinker with the settings to set your specific headphones up to deliver the best sound they can.
Edit: It seems that the ROM from Xiaomi.eu already contains these changes. I recommend you try it and see for yourself.

Thank you so much but to install China ROM also I'll have to unlock my boot loader right ... Ian not sure about the policy of xiomi now if they don't provide warranty after boot loader unlock
The quality and volume both are too low not just for a flagship but even a moderate smartphone

You don't need to unlock your bootloader to switch between any of the official ROMs (Global Dev/Stable or China Dev/Stable) The Mi5 actually have some of the loudest output I have ever heard from a phone and is powerful enough to power my full-size headphones, but for some reason the output is limited in the Global variants by default. You can read all about the audio output of the Mi 5 on the China ROM here: http://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_mi_5-review-1411p6.php
So, if you want to keep things stock and have a great audio experience; without any rooting, bootloader unlock, or voiding of your warranty - your only option is to switch to the China ROM and sideload the Play store. Here's what you have to do:
1. Go to http://en.miui.com/download-299.html#435 and click on the "Download Full ROM" button (either would work, you can choose whether you prefer Dev/Stable).
2. Copy the file to the internal storage of your phone.
3. Open your updater app.
4. Tap the three dot menu in the upper right corner of your phone.
5. Select "Choose update package" and navigate to the file.
6. Update your phone.
After the reboot you should be on the China ROM with the correct audio settings. Just Google how to sideload the Play Store on MIUI as there are plenty of guides available and you should be fine.
Since you're new to the Mi 5 community, I bid you welcome, and hope I have solved your problem :highfive:

I think you can't switch between china and global with "Choose update package" method.
Weird, mine came out the clearest though a bit quiter compared to my Lg g4 and htc 10 which is way louder. If low output is your concern yes, many review reports low volume output on 3.5mm jack on mi5. You might want to consider usb c audio

You can, I've done it before myself. I imported my Mi5 with China Stable and used this method to switch to Global Dev as soon as I got it. Then I waited for my unlock code from Xiaomi and used a plethora of ROMs since, and recently started using Xiaomi.eu Weekly after they included heterogeneous processing which made MIUI much, much smoother to use.

I think what he is expecting is just low output, unless he uses super sensitive earphones which picks up noise much more easily.
The Mi5 has the best audio of any phone I've used so far, and it is very loud with the above mentioned modifications (and "okay" without it). As far as I know noise increases if you drive the DAC/pre-amp harder, so louader audio = more noise, but according to independent tests the Mi5 handles it extremely well.
USB type C audio is very unnecessary when the Mi5 has such a powerful quality driver, you just need to give it the right config file.

Glad it worked for you Just keep in mind some Viper4Android processing can end up adding to the noise levels. It should be unnecessary if you have good earphones that matches your taste in music, but it's nice to have to have the option.

You should try updating multiple times, the updater app is buggy (just like the crappy MIUI suite that never works properly). If it still doesn't work you should apply for a bootloader unlock code (you can relock at any time, so don't worry). Then you'll be able to use MiFlash or TWRP, they actually work.

Keep in mind that it might take up to three days after your unlock code has been approved to actually work. If you still have trouble after that, it's the USB driver for Xiaomi devices that doesn't allow unlocking your bootloader on Windows 10. You have to uninstall the USB driver, use PnP to install it again, wait for it to update, and then do a rollback.

Glad you finally got the experience you paid for :highfive:
That's why I always appreciate good hardware, and Xiaomi makes it affordable and accessible to everyone. If you don't have nice headphones already, you should check out the Xiaomi Hybrid Pro HD's. It goes great with the MI5 and I really enjoy this combo, without any tweaking.
Keep in mind the Mi5 is a bit of a fragile phone that bends easily and has it's frame dented from the lightest bumps (at least that can be replaced) so you should probably get a case and/or screen protector.
Edit: Oh and about the sound difference between the ROMs: I think it comes down to complying to international standards and to prevent hearing loss. I know China doesn't have such strict regulations and Xiaomi might just be playing it safe in other largely unknown markets. The quality of the sound is just as good, it's just the loudness that's been altered.

And yeah it gets pretty loud enough
Regarding the mi hibrid i taught of buying it but the sound magic e10 c works flawlessly without any effects on it
Just to pump up a little bass i used snapdragon audio plus from playmusic settings i cant depent on mi sound enhancer since mine is not a mi earphone and even if i do it doesnt sound all that great so i used snapdragon audio its awsome

Xiaomi built it's business on top of its modding community and fan base which is why it has one of the best around.
If you're happy with your headphones there is no need to change it. Mi Sound Enhancer sounds **** even with Mi earphones so you're not missing much in that regard.
Edit: I've just tried Mi Sound Enhancer after not using it for a long time, and it definitely improved a lot. I'd say it now slightly improves the listening experience, but only by like 5% and if you have one of the headphones on the list.

Hello,
I recently acquired a Mi 8 and after years and years of always rooting, flashing etc... since Android 1.6 i decided to take a break and just let myself go with the flow.
This is acutally pretty hard to stand to this, when i first powered on the device (Saturday 10th November), it was on MIUI 9 and i could say it was working well, especially the bluetooth AND type-C to Jack audio. i was able to get the full volume of my head/earphone.
but now that i updated to MIUI 10 the afternoon right after my tests. Bluetooth AND type-C to Jack audio is extremly low, maybe a bit higher with jack but environmental sounds are still way more above the sound i can hear from my head/earphone.
i tested the bluetooth "pro" earphone given in the box, a bluedio T6 (bluetooth & wired) and a Sony MDR-XB950 (Wired). At maximum Volume, all i can hear is about 5% (give or take) of the real audio output i can get from them on another devices.
i Tried to activate the developper option called "Deactivate Absolute Volume" nothing changed, i tried to change the AVRCP Bluetooth version nothing changed. for the next option, no matter what i do, they don't save and revert back themselves to default:
- Bluetooth Audio Codec
- Audio Sample Rate
- Channel Bluetooth mode
- Bluetooth Audio bits
if anyone would have a solution for that it would be great, i'm really thinking of getting rid of the phone just because of that as i use it almost 5 to 11 hours a day to listen to audio.
Second is less complicated, why do i have MIUI 10.0.3.0 Stable when the latest Global Stable is 10.0.2.0 ? and isn't MIUI 10 supposed to bring Android Pie ?
last but not least, I can't seem to install GPay and it would save me lots of time, do really need to switch to a custom rom such as the one provided by Xiaomi.eu ? if so do i need to go throught the whole process of installing a custom rom and always having to try and avoid bugs and random FC + reboot every now and then ?
that was the main reason i wanted to go for a new phone and not modify it, i had great times modifying my phones until my LeEco Le Max 2 got me tired of it by having mechanical problems due to software changes.
Try to change region to USA. When the region is an European country the volume is very low. That's what I did to solve this problem.

You're welcome. European Union has a policy in order to prevent ear damaging. It's very annoying I think.
Yeah I knew about that but I never encountered a limit THAT low. I guess they tried too hard on respecting that instead of getting all 4G band working or letting us use Google pay
[Edit] choosing U.S deactivated face unlock, NANI?!
@moneshaq u will have to goes back to roots .... is the right thing ....as for Bluetooth and hpj viper4android theres an magick module for that ...google pay ...same magisk can safety pass and cts aswell certified the device ...also there's an module to play dual speaker.....the phone worth the money ....

Try a different region.
After trying almost every region (i left out a lot of third-world country, no offense) U.S is the best compromise, i get normal Volume on my sony Wired headset and my Xiaomi bluetooth earpiece but almost no sound on my Bluedio T6.
GPay not available no matter what is the region i choose and Face unlock is deactivated, i also noticed that changing multiple times of region unlocks some apps that are built-in the phone but not available in every region such as Theme manager.
i've sent an unlock bootloader request, if i don't get access to Pie update until the end of the "probation" waiting time or if that update doesn't bring up some solution, even worse adds new bugs, i'll just switch to MIUI Xiaomi.eu rom, i really like MIUI and i wanna stick with it for now, and Xiaomi.eu seems to be the best option for stable rom
Hi,
I'm having a lot of pain with my POCO X3 and Android Auto hope to find help here...
1. I need to connect my phone twice in order to connect to AA. I need to disconnect it twice from my car multimedia port side, if I unplug it from my phone side (USB-C) it takes more than 2 times to connect to AA.
2. After a phone call any audio (Spotify, streaming radio, other phone call) is routed to my phone speaker, I need to disconnect and connect my phone (twice) to solve it.
3. GPS signal is with a delay
4. Incoming call - it takes forever to show the call information (who's calling me).
5. Selecting apps via AA, very slow response time, even in app, for example I'm trying to add a report via Waze it's almost impossible, trying to make a phone call while using Waze.
I'm getting the same results in 2 different cars, I've tried different cables... I don't use Dual apps which I know is making trouble with AA.
I've tried Apple Carplay and it's working very well and very smooth.
Hope you guys will be able to help me..

For those of us having issues with sound redirection after a phone call, are you rooted? I ask because I'm trying to narrow down the route to a possible solution. If we are rooted, it becomes easier. I'm not worried about using 3rd party ROMs because I had this issue on stock.
I'm rooted
Seems it is not issue on POCO only. I have the same sound redirection with Mi11, stock global rom, not rooted. Bootloader is not unlocked yet, so once done, I am planning to flash xiaomi.eu rom as it seems the issue is fixed there.

Hi, yesterday I installed the 12.5.9 eu version, confirm that the problem of the sound that is passed to the mobile after a call, continues to occur.
Today I installed version 21.6.30 as commented by the colleague and they have effectively solved the problem of the sound that jumped to the phone after a call.
Great!
Just got my first Xiaomi device and really enjoying it, however Wi-Fi calling (on EE in the UK) disconnects every 50 minutes without fail (call with drop). I can watch in realtime the VPN connection on port 4500 in my router diagnostics and see it strike up a new connection a few seconds after 50 minutes.
I think this may be to do with the carrier settings being incorrect. Under IwlanSettings there is a esp_timeout setting (from another device that works on EE fine) which is set to 3000 seconds = 50 minutes. I think the esp_timeout on the Xiaomi may be set to a higher value, typically the esp is refreshed around 90 seconds before the end of the timeout. I assume the operator times out at 3000 because my end hasn't refreshed it as it is thinking it has more time.
To test this theory, how can I edit these settings. On another device there is a Iwlansetting widget I can add via Nova, but this doesn't exist on the Xiaomi. Can I change these settings via adb?
What is the best way to feed this back to Xiaomi?
Thanks for any help or pointers.
Had an update to 12.5.16 this morning and the bug is still there, with Wi-Fi calling on EE dropping every 50 minutes exactly.
I've sent logs and feed back using the app on the phone, no response almost a month later. Do they even look at that feedback?
My first go with an Xiaomi device, they might be good value devices and well built, but the aftersales support seems non-existent.

England using the EEA ROM that came with it (RKDEUXM). They tend to stagger updates so we may not all get the update at the same time. Typically no useful release notes, so no idea what has been fixed, and I see no differences except for the System Updater now being white when it should be a black background (as dark mode is on). So no fix for a fundamental issue of calls dropping, but I found a UI bug almost immediately, so this is Xiaomi supporting their devices, doesn't bode well.
It reports it has Android security update 2021-11-01
Thanks for the answer and information

Do you have call recording on EEA rom ?

Not something I've ever needed so not entirely sure, but I don't think so as it just uses the standard Google Phone app and no options in that for call recording that I can see.

There is NO call recording on EEA. Install this instead stock dialer and you will have call recording:

Bug also present on the latest version 12.5.20 RKDEUXM just released today. No response to feedback sent.
Support from Xiaomi is non-existent.
Anyone noticing a problem with the bluetooth distance on this phone.
I have switch from an MiA2 and had no problems using my headphones with my phone in my pocket, on the redmi though I am getting skipping and jumping when using the phone in the same way. Anyone else noticed a similar problem?
I’d be happy to help, but I don’t have this phone, sorry
yep ive noticed it too on bluetooth speakers , tried jbl & lg with different players and formats . getting micro dropouts and the speakers are only a few feet away . my amazon fire tablets wifi slows right down when using bluetooth too . the only thing i can think of is the signals are causing interference .
Hmm, same circumstances today, no issues. Very strange.

Hello, I upgrade my RN5pro with RN11 (spesn) and comparing booth, rn11 have a very bad Bluetooth signal.
But I think it's MIUI Rom that cause this problem because the signal it's much better since I have installed a custom ROM.
I get the feeling that the antennas are pretty weak, compared to the Redmi Note 5 I was using before. Both Bluetooth and WiFi seem to have a significantly smaller range than I was used to in the 3 years I was using my old phone.
I've also noticed problems with my in-ear buds when I'm walking around with the phone in my pocket. I sure hope that a different OS can mitigate those problems in the long run.
Edit: What darkspirit66 said right above me.
I've got the same problem. After update to V13.0.12.0.RGCMIXM I noticed a significant ranged decreased. I tested 3 differents bluetooth headphones, and when the bluetooth device is connected, the signal drops in half. In the pocket the signal almost disappear ("Bluetooth signal meter" to see difference of signal)

I solved the problem flashing with stock rom via fastboot
What also bothers me about MIUI is that whenever I get too far from the connected bluetooth device, it will not pick it up again when I'm back in range. I really doubt it's something custom ROMs wouldn't solve. You always have to either turn off/back on the speaker, or reconnect via the settings menu.

0. Make a backup of all your data
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Download a fastboot rom
3. Flash with MiFlash
I don't know if I can post youtube links here. But you can easily find tutorials teaching how to flash via fastboot on youtube.

Ok thanks, I'll look into it.
Hey anyone else with this phone to start testing new stuff on it?
Got the Chinese version. Flashed the global firmware and changed the channel to reteu with working OTA's.
Will write a guide in the coming days, feel free to ask me about anything you want to know.
I just received the phone, seemed like a store here had a issue allowing me to get the phone early.
If you've got questions, let me know. I do seem to notice a bug with the screen refresh rate set to "auto". It wont go up to 144hz by itself and at low display brightness it seems to stay on 90. Forcefully setting it to 144hz does work wonderfully though.

Do you have the global version? Would be great if you could take three pictures in pro mode with everything set to auto and DNG enabled. (One from each lens). My model produces weird raw results for the main camera, I just want to make sure that it is software related.
You can also see in the viewfinder that the main camera seems to be way less contrasty and saturated than the other lenses.
Also: what's your build number / software version?

Does Google Pay and NFC work correctly? Is the chinese hardware exactly the same as Global this time?

Just checking resellers. You can get the chinese version flashed with global rom already on Aliexpress for £599 for 256gb. Cheapest you can get chinese version that you will need to flash yourself is £530 and that's 128GB only. So might be better to buy it already flashed. Moto UK you can get 10% of for official version which is £675
Hi
I recive today my Global Edge 30 Ultra
Working ok ( first 1-2 hours test )
I find boot.img for root, where i can find firmware ??
Maybe working boot.img from chinese version, i can try use command:
fastboot boot patched_boot.img ( not flashing... )
But where i can find this file or from global version ?

NFC is toggleable and Google Wallet opens without a problem. As I have never used Google Pay before I dont know how to test it.
I would not buy a flashed version to be honest. If you want a converted phone you should do it yourself to learn what you are doing and maybe be knowledgable enough to handle problems when they arise.

You can get your firmware from Lenovos / Motorolas Rescue and Smart Assistant:
Rescue and Smart Assistant (RSA) - Lenovo Support DE
support.lenovo.com
Use the rescue function with your phone plugged in, start the download and you can unplug the phone.
Firmware can be found at "C:\ProgramData\RSA\Download\RomFiles" after the download.
Would be great if you could share the zipped Firmware with us. Maybe on Google Drive or mega.
These zips dont contain any personal information.

Can confirm that for me the main camera also produces weird results in pro mode with raw output. The output also seems to be way more dull than what the view finder suggests.

Okay thats good for all of us imo. I already contacted Motorola's camera team about the issue, hoping they'll fix it.
@onken: Thanks for the upload! I am not 100% sure but in theory:
1. Patch the new boot.img from the new firmware via magisk on your phone.
2. Put it into your new firmware folder and name it boot_magisk.img
3. Open the flashfile.xml and copy paste the contents into this website.
4. Reboot to fastboot, open a cmd window in your firmware folder and use the fastboot commands from the website but SKIP "fastboot erase userdata".
5. Reboot into fastboot and flash boot_magisk.img to keep root.
Maybe you need to skip the other "erase" commands as well, not quite sure.
Does anyone happen to know why oem unlocking in developer options is greyed out?
Might be related to your purchase date. I've read that sometimes people need to wait 7 days before it is available on other Motorola phones. Might also be available after factory reset.
I think must wait 96h, about 5 days
Possible work fasted if reset to factory ?

I think its related to "Widerrufsrecht" or whatever its called in other EU countries. You could unlock, decide that you dont like the phone and just return it and noone would probably check if the warranty is void.
Here is an official Motorola post on the issue. Sometimes takes up to a week.
Edit: But on the other hand, unlocking your bootloader can not void your warranty in the EU afaik.
