Hi guys,
Whatever rom I install on my xiaomi mi5, after a certain time, the screen rotation does not work anymore.
To prevent software errors I run always by a clean flash.
In many forums write user that this bug after the update to a specific version Miui disappears.
This is not a' solution for me.
Has anyone else this problem?
Perhaps it is also a hardware defect...
dont think its a software problem, maybe you should get your phone checked out

Its of course a well know bug for all mi5 roms. I read yesterday that last thursday rom update fix this:
"Fix - Accelerometer and gyroscope didn't work after and OTA update (08-12)
Fix - Accelerometer and gyroscope didn't work normally (08-12)"
The problem occured with miui as well as with unofficial CM build, what i am using now. This indicates to me that it has nothing to do with the installed rom directly.
After rebooting, everything works fine again.
I suspect apps like Pokémon go to stay in relation to the bug. Since i am not playing that game anymore it occures much rarer...
I am too having this problem with no solution, i guess its not an hardware issue, otherwise dozens of people like us have an defective hardware on their mi 5. I tried MIUI 7.5.2.0 and 8.0.2.0, both global stable, occurs when i play pokemon go for a while, then i go back to any app and the screen does not rotate anymore.
I wonder if it is related to the kernel, since we dont have the kernel sources, all the roms available are based on the kernel miui have, so... Any help would be apreciated.
I was having the same problem. I dont play pokemon. Im still on vendor rom. But now the bug gone i tried to simulate the bug but it rotate normally
I have this issue. I'm on the latest CM 13 build and I get issues where the camera won't take in landscape and full screen videos won't switch to landscape when you rotate the phone. It's so nearly perfect apart from that.

Did you ever fix this bug as a matter of interest? I've just done a full-wipe reset and reinstall of the latest CM13 build and I still have auto-rotate issues. It's really annoying me now because it's a great build in all other respects.
I installed a couple of Sensor Test apps and neither one can see my accelerometer sensor to even test it. So it's like the sensor isn't even there. I know it works because one of Shade.sh's beta CM 13 builds was able to detect the sensor OK! Any ideas?
Here's the sensors detected in the Check My Android app. There seems to be only two axis detectors working. How does this compare to a healthy Mi 5?

Yes, i actualy did. After installing developer version 6.9.18 the problem never appeared again. Now im on 6.9.22 and the rotation bug is gone
Hmm, I've just tried SlimRom and the same bug is present, presumably because it's derived from the same tree as CM 13.
I'm actually tempted to give MIUI 6.9.22 a go then if it's the only way to get this fixed.
I have just flashed the MIUI developer ROM 6.9.2.2 and my sensors are working perfectly now. So it must be something for flaky in the CM stack or Kernel version. See screenshot.
Hello guys, wanna ask something
Are you guys experiencing the gps cannot lock, and always "searching for gps"? I tested it outside with google maps and high accuracy settings but still no luck.
Im currently on miui 8 global stable, is there any way to fix this gps issue?
me too and actually lots of people having this gps issue on mi5. I'm looking for solutions to it also.
Try updating again via updater, click the 3 dots on the top right, it will download the whole package, and reboot again. It works for me
I have the developer MIUI 8 6.8.25 and my GPS works perfect.
Can anyone recommend a good free app for GPS testing?

Try 'GPS Status & Toolbox' from the Play store.
+1 on this, I am also having constant issues with my gps, it seems to be pretty random as it would sometimes lock immediately while the other time i have to wait up to 15min.
I am currently on 6.4.27 from xiaomi.eu as it seems to be the one of very few roms where download transfer rate is not an issue.
Doesn't work when plugged in to either of my QC 2 fast chargers (car and home).
Works fine normal slow charger.
I think it's software related regarding the GPS issues in mi5
Because right now I'm on the custom ROM, the latest multirom, the GPS works flawlessly with no issues at all when I'm using google maps to navigate. Meanwhile the latest global stable has a very bad GPS performance, unusable even.
So I guess I'm gonna keep using this multirom instead of the official stable release, and hope that the devs who're responsible for developing the global release finally fix the issue in the next global release :good:
I had gps problem with all v8 miui rom, cannot get gps locked on google maps. when using gps test the fone only see 5 satellites. No fix solution working yet!
Guys,
Couldn't it be that a certain batch of MI5s has been manufactured with a faulty GPS module? I have tested it on countless rom versions both MIUI and AOSP/CM. It is always the same, my Mi5 takes ridiculous 20-30mins to obtain a lock and then loses it every 2-3mins.
The only occasion when GPS was working fine was few days after I've bought the phone and took an 800km trip, it was stable all the time and I was very happy with its performance as it obtained a lock almost instantly. I was on 6.4.27 from xiaomi.eu back then. Problems have started when I was driving back (and I didn't change ROM during that time) but it was nothing compared to what I'm experiencing now, I am under impression that this is getting worse with each day.
I am back on 6.4.27 now and it's not any better.The GPS is unusable in its current state and I'm considering sending my phone to the seller for a replacement.
My phone was manufactured in May 2016 (says the box), it's a 32GB black version, could you guys please let me know when were yours produced so that we can (or can't) establish a common pattern here?
Cheers.
EDIT:
The issue seems resolved with the latest update (6.9.1 from xiaomi.eu). GPS on my Mi5 has been stable for the last 4 days with an average of ~23 satellites detected, it takes around 30s to obtain a fix. That's a huge improvement, keep it up and we might see other issues resolved once and for all

i'm planning to buy a mi5 but first i want to be sure that i won't have gps issues as had with g5!
at first you said that gps was weak either on MIUSI or CM/AOSPA.. that seems to be an HW issue.. so how is it possible to have solved gps issues with a SW update? do you still have rock solid GPS tracking? i need it for sport and gaming purposes
any clue how to fix it?
For me it always flworked outside but i didn't work inside my house only...

Its still not fixed....its been 5 months and still not fixed... I still dont understand i spent 350$ on this piece of ****
Someone please help me fix this issue..
Mine has always worked fine. I am always on the latest global dev of miui. What did you try to resolve it?
I've tried different GPS fix in the google store, changed to xiaomi.eu in 2-3 different versions, changed to global developer, wiped everything, edited the gps config, turned off miui battery optimization and granting google maps permisions to all. Nothing seems to fix it, always 15 or less satellites, bad signal and about 2-3mins to lock the position.
Nothing seems to work... Now trying to install 6.11.10 xiaomi.eu and then switch to the latest xiaomi.eu stable as recommended. If I find any solution I'll let you know, but I'm staring to think it's related to hardware, my GF owns another mi5 and 0 problems since the first day.
Edit: Installed 6.11.10 without formating system aaaaand.. nothing changed.
Installed again formating system and 6-10s I get my location for the first time, more GPS showing and seems to work fine.
I'll update again to last xiaomi.eu and test it to see if all keeps working.
For the time being: 6.11.10 xiaomi.eu with format system corrects the GPS error
Because of the unusable and unreliable GPS, my very expensive Mi 5 Pro Ceramics will be sold.
Nothing will ever be fixed for this phone, because Xiaomi does not care about a solution.
What is a phone worth that has GPS problems? I paid 370 USD for the 128 GB version.
My GPS has working fine but since 2 months I have the same problem.
I am using a magnetic holder in my car for my MI5.
But without problems until that moment.
Are you usign magnetic holder??? Perhaps that's the problem, but I am not sure.
I will sell my MI5 because i need the GPS for my job.
I don't have GPS issues per se, but when it is connected to the USB for power in the car it doesn't work. The moment I un-plug it the location is fixed and it works as per normal.
Having the sa,e f*** issues
I am having problem with the GPS since I bought the phone...
At the beginning was taking super long to fix the position... sometimes half an hour.
It was working and failing apparentely randomly...
but now... worst!!!! is not working at all. 0 Satelites
The internal test of the GPS fails...
So I think that if I am still on time I will give it back or change it or something!!!!
Hey, no long ago, about 2 weaks or so, I had to replace my broken screen. Everything is fine now, my screen isn't that great tho, but that's okay. But I've noticed something, before I used to have customs roms (mostly mokee os), but when I sent my device to a store to fix it, I reinstalled stock, when I receive it back, everything was great. But then, I got bored of stock, and reflashed Mokee (notice: I tried with LOS 14, MOS 15, MIUI) and then I realized that at random power ups my vibrations stops working. To make it work again, I have to reboot the device a few times. Anyone ever had any issues like that? What should I do? Remember: vibrations works fine on stock, only have this issue with customs roms.

I have had a similar problem, the "Vibrate on tap" didn't work with the replaced LCD and custom rom.

Hello,
I got an WLAN Problem with my Xiaomi Mi 9. Im currently using the newest Miui Global Version and tried many other ROMS, but got almost everywhere a WLAN Problem. My WLAN is like freezed. Im connected but it takes like 1 min until something load completly. The only way to fix it is turning Hotspot on for 5 sec, then disable it, restart the phone and turning Hotspot on again and disable it. Then my WLAN works perfect, until I restart again. I just doesn't understand what is causing this problem. I also tried different ROMS like Xiaomi EU and CrDroid, but I got the same problem. The only ROM that worked without WLAN problems was Pixel Experience, but its draining my battery too hard. Can anyone help me with this strange problem? Btw I already made a thread where I said I fixed it, but the problem came back after 2 restarts.

Have any of you updated to the new version? Is it stable now? Does everything work fine?
A month ago I got a prompt to update to the then new android12 update but a lot of things were broken. Some apps I need(like nubank) wouldn't open for no apparent reason and the system was overall less responsive. Not to mention the NFC function was removed for no reason.
I had to go through the process of downgrading using a tutorial in this forum because the rollback package they provided was for the indian variant, so I'd rather know for sure that everything is OK before I update again
I don't know if this is any help, but I've updated to c.06 in the past without it breaking anything. I've updated to c.07 now, and it seems stable to me personally.
maybe try a factory reset before updating? I haven't done that myself btw

Hi, thanks for your response. Did you notice any drop in performance or battery life after you updated? Any problems with fingerprint, nfc, etc?

No prob. Performance has been very snappy so far. Battery is holding up great and charges as fast as before. Fingerprint en nfc are working fine.
The only annoying thing I've noticed (but maybe that's an Android 12 thing) is that the option for usb-tethering is missing from the pop-up screen when I plug my phone into my laptop. So I have to go into the settings screen to turn it on.

Coming back to report that I've updated, and while everything seems to be working fine I have noticed a drop in battery life which is quite annoying. Otherwise the rom runs smoothly and I've only noticed a small bug which sometimes prevents me from swiping up to close apps on the recent apps screen
in Realme 3.0 C.07 HDR10 Support removed for no reason.
Hello,
I also can confirm that "Allways On" is missing options on this new update...
C7 seems to be very more unstable than C6...
There is a new version out TODAY.... C08.
Best Regards,
LPC
C.07 was buggy. C.08 is even more buggy.
C.08 bugs:-
Device hangs alot.Battery draining more. Many apps aren't responding well (ex- YouTube etc.) C.06 has HDR but it even not available in C.08.
I will downgrade it to rui 2.0
Almost all alarm clock and notification apps stopped working reliably - missing alarms all the time
