Xiaomi Mi 5 motherboard , battery or software issue? - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

Hey guys,
my 1 year old Xiaomi Mi 5 has a problem. It just turnes black after some time and I am not able to turn it back on by pressing the power button until I unplug and plug back in the battery. Which I had to do 2 times because the first time it somehow didn't work.
So, after what time does it turn black/off?
- Last time I was able to do everything for about 2-3 days until it turned itself off
- The time before it worked about 1-2 days
Last time I did that precedure the battery wasn't working properly. It didn't show me any percentage and after I unplugged it went black. So I unplugged and replugged the battery again and it worked. Maybe there was a connection issue I don't know. The only strange thing was that the battery was at 0% and started charging normally, but I charged it up to 100% the day before and didn't use it much. It was at about 80-90% when I got to bed.
I had the official Xiaomi Global Developer version of MIUI 9 installed. After the first failure I switched to the Ciaomi Global Stable ROM and I had the same issues. Now after about 2 months I thought about trying to repair it. Dowloaded and installed the newest Xiaomi Global Stable MIUI9 ROM and it failed me after 2-3 days.
I have never repaired a smartphone. Repairing shouldn't be the problem either, but I don't know what causes the issues.
It works for some days and then suddenly breaks. Can the motherboard really be broken if everything works for days and then breaks?
Battery is also working properly. Can get through a day without a problem of running out of battery.
I am really clueless what could cause the issues. Do you guys have any ideas?
IF you need any information feel free to ask.
Thanks for trying to help,

[Q] battery issue. please help :)

hi everyone.
ai bought a second hand gear 1 from ebay and the seller said she obly used it twice when she got it a year ago and its been sat unused since then.
my issue is that i charge the watch up and it seems to go down normally and then when its about halfway down it just dies and wont turn on for at least 20mins then when it starts up it shows 0% battery and shuts down. then i power up again later and its back to halfway?
i have tryed resetting many times and nothing seems to work. I have also tryed putting the Null custom rom on and makes no differance. the watch is perfect apart from that. my thought is that the battery inside is stuffed from not being used for so long but not sure
thanks for ur input guys!
Matt
Does it get hot?
It may be shutting down due to excess heat, partic since you say it restarts later.
How long did you charge it for, I've read that a PC USB charge of 16 hours+ may be needed if the watch has been left sometime without charge.
Other than that it may mean that you need a new battery - sorry.
thanks very much for the advice. it was the battery. i replaced it and all seems ok now

Mi5 Issue with phone/battery, brick every 2 weeks.

Hi,
I'm a Mi5 3/64 (black) user since 1 month, I bought it from Geekbuying.
Since 1 months the phone was hardbricked twice:
First time I left it overnight with 40% of battery and when I woke up in the morning the phone was dead, no life at all. I tried to charge it for couple of hours but it didn't help. Luckily I was able to flash MIUI through Miflash, so after that I was able to turn on my mobile and start again from zero. Terrible.
Second time it happened while I was charging my mobile. When it had 90% of battery I switched the mobile off. After one or two hours, still connected to charger I tried to turn it on but it was dead again. No life at all. I tried to charge it for couple of hours and nothing. So I left it and the next day I tried to turn it on by any chance and the red LED started to blink. Tried to charge for a while, but still without success. Connected to my laptop and it was visible in MiFlash, so I flashed latest Miui dev and now I can start again setting up my mobile.
What should I do now? Does it look like battery issue? I'm afraid that it will happen again after 2-3 weeks.
Somebody else had this issue? Did you ever return smth to Geekbuying and received item or refund back?
I wrote to Geekbuying and they just recommended me to flash this - https://goo.gl/jLBSsa I think it's bull****, just an old Miui ROM.
Thank you in advance for any help.
Was just going to restart the device and flash supersu binarys, tried to restart into recovery, eventually it died, couldnt boot it at all, doesnt respond while charging neither when plugging into the computer. I've no idea what happened but for me it feels like it was the battery failed. I was on lineage 170109 with brand kernel 3.3

Yes, so your issue is similar to mine. Terrible, no idea what's wrong with this phone and geekbuying support is terrible.
Use MiFlash to temporary make your device alive.

Using Mac but don't want to hassle, just bought a new battery from ebay instead and hope it will fix the problem.
On another community people told me that the main board is faulty, they say that it's the common issue in mi5.

Complex problem

Hello everyone.
I'm currently having problems with my device.
It all started like a week ago when it couldnt charge the phone with my qc original charger. After that - i've gone to repair store and they repaired. At then i was rocking Lineage OS.
After i got my phone back, i switched from LOS to Miui 9.5.2.0 through miflash, wiping everything. and then updated to 9.5.5 via OTA and after that to 9.6.2.0 It charged normally. Installed all my apps and after a few hours it all went down. Battery was again discharging, when I put it on charger got no response from the device. After that battery was at 0 percent.
I tried to turn it up, it was blinking red. Let it during the night on charger, it went like 60% and thought - maybe wasnt good flash, i again reflashed it, to again 9.5.2 and from then after flashing I turned it on, it was 11% and again started decreasing and eventually dead again. And for 2 days i let it on charger and no luck. Any idea? Yeah, I bought original replacment battery if needed.

Anyhow, i tried the test point method. When i press test point things and connect it to laptop - laptop shows the qualcomm 9008, but if I let go the test pins, it sounds like i disconected the device. any help? Could deep flash cable do the trick?
Already tried charging with another charger and cable?

Mi9T pro - bootloop, no charging

Hello, I took a photo yesterday and during the second photo, the mobile phone suddenly turned off. So I thought the battery ran out, so I put it on the charger. However, the mobile phone cannot be charged and is in the bootloop with this battery logo, see. video I can't turn it on, I can't get into fasboot or TWRP. I had a custom room EvolutionX there, which I have had there for about a year, and everything worked until then. I didn't make any changes. Could someone please advise? Thank you

MI mix battery issue?

Hello guys, really bummed out here.
I recently rediscovered my original mi mix which I had 4 years ago.
Everything was working except the battery couldn't hold a charge. It will charge to 100% and while using the phone it will just shut down randomly. So I changed to a new battery and hoped for the best.
Now with the new battery it's the same. Battery charges up to 100%.i tried the pixel rom, xiomi global rom and now I'm on dotOS, same ****.
The weird thing is I put it in safe mode and the phone has not shut down for 4 hours now but it is stuck at 70%.
If I plug in the cable the phone works fine. The moment I take it out and start using it. It randomly goes into a bootloop and dies. When I charge it back, battery always starts of at 50%
Is there any hope or is it just a beautiful paperweight?

Hi Bro. I sent it to a phone repair shop and they said the issue was with the battery. Replaced a new one and its working like normal again. I probably bought a defective battery
Sounds like a mobo issue.
Try a hard reset ie disconnect the battery.
