Phone doesnt register z axis gyroscope reading - compass spins erratically

Hey!
Ive been noticing an issue with my device, since I think the update to MIUI 11 (but not sure).
Description:
- The compass (and other apps using compass like Google maps) gives incorrect readings, when put horizontally. When put horizontally and kept still, the compass will spin regularly ca 2 degrees per second completely independent from the actual pointing direction. When the phone is kept vertically the compass works normally. I have made a video displaying the correct reading when vertically, and the spinning when kept horizontally: https://youtu.be/xgC4fHqH4Ys
- When checking the underlying gyroscope functionality with "Sensor Multitool", I have come across what I think is an erratic z axis reading. When I spin the phone randomly, the gyroscope in the x and y axis registers adequate readings, but the z axis stays completely flat. I have produced a video showing this behavior: https://youtu.be/1dY_xdF5Nz8
I have found this thread from Aliosa007 ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3972249 ) that describes a very similar issue, but this user had recently flashed a new rom and the problem is attributed with the flashing. The users there assume the issue being a corrupt persist.img and most problem solving techniques involve flashing etc. But my phone is locked and not rooted. Could I also have received a corrupt persist.img during the normal update process recently to MIUI 11.
Currently trying to figure out, what the best way forward is. Wait and hope that this will be fixed with the next update or go the warranty route?
Thanks for helping me out with this one!

Hi.
I'm sorry I won't be very useful since I'm just having the exact same problem as you and don't know how to solve it... My phone isn't flashed either and my compass spins continuously.
I just wanted to know if you found a solution since your original post.
I also wanted to know if you tried factory resetting your phone ? I was thinking about trying that but if you already did and it didn't solve the issue, maybe I won't bother...
Thanks in advance.

Hey Tistou, thanks for your message. I haven't found a solution to the issue yet, unfortunately.
I tried factory resetting the phone but that didn't solve it. Did this problem just occur one day - or was it after you updated the phone? In my case Im not 100% sure it began after the updated and if it didn't, it could be an indication for a hardware issue.
I will keep this thread up to date in case I find a solution to the issue. But at the moment, I am out of ideas. I thought about flashing the phone with an alternative ROM and replace the persist.img. But currently the assumed risk/benefit keep me up from doing that. I'd assume sending Xiaomi feedback on that issue
Best,

Hey,
well I couldn't really tell if it's related to an update : I got my mi 9T pro like two or three weeks ago and updated to 11.0.3 the day I got it...
The weird thing is that I noticed the problem one first time, and then two or three days later the issue solved itself without me doing anything particular and my compass started working normally again... And then two or three days ago it started spinning continuously again... I just hope it's software related and not an hardware issue...
I think I'm just going to wait for the next system update and if doesn't solve the problem I may send the phone back (but I don't wanna ... The phone otherwise is so great...).
I'll update the thread if I find something.
Good luck

Hi there, I had a similar problem a while ago when going from custom rom Android 10 back to miui 10 Android 9. Pop up camera and gyro sensors wouldn't work so no auto rotate either. Simple fix was to flash the persist img in custom recovery, then go into stock camera app and it'll ask to calibrate, after than everything worked fine. This should work for you and everyone else with this problem hopefully.
Flashing persist won't wipe any of your data so don't worries there. I'll see if I can find the file I have it somewhere and I'll send the link.
So really the only way to fix this is to have compatible custom recovery with persist partition, flash the persist.img, but since you have a locked bootloader and stock recovery I don't think you have any options to fix this unfortunately, maybe fastboot rom through miflash? That didn't work for me but it might work for you.

Thank you so much for your response! That keeps my hopes up that I get it solved eventually.
I am currently not planning to unlock my bootloader, I am currently exploring to go the warranty route because that's the easiest way forward. But in case that won't work, I will definitely try to flash the persist.img. I will have to try to get my hands on the persist.img file!
Thanks again!

persist.img is in the fastboot rom, so if you download that and extract you can get the img. You should be able to flash it thru fastboot using adb on PC with the command 'fastboot flash persist persist.img'. no need to unlock bootloader
I'm not gonna be near my PC for a while so won't be able to upload it for you

Sorry sir, but i think you cannot flash persist.img thru fastboot, because it read-only partition ,

I read several times that it must be flashed with twrp (dunno what that means)... But I also read that it makes you lose L1 widevine (dunno what that means either). Could someone enlighten me ?
And do you think the next MIUI update could fix that ?

Not an expert on the matter. But a peripheral knowledge of the matter.
It appears to me that you are new to the matter. So I will use easy language.
TWRP is a so called "custom recovery" for Android that allows users to basically change the underlying firmware/system software (a process often referred to as "flashing") of the device. It is basically the entry point towards conveniently changing system files, that Android normally forbids you to change. To install a costum recovery, the bootloader of the phone has to be unlocked, so that the device can boot into the custom recovery instead of the OS directly. https://www.quora.com/What-is-TWRP-Why-is-it-used?share=1
Widevine L1 is a software part within Android that basically authenticates, that the device at hand is allowed to handle media files that are DRM protected (eg. within Netflix). When Android has been changed from the default configuration (by flashing a custom rom), the software part should revoke the authorization or restrict it. This behavior depends I think on the capability of the custom rom to trick widevine into believing that its genuine.(not so sure about that)
https://www.androidauthority.com/widevine-explained-821935/
Heres hoping that the next update will solve the issue! The issue isnt so dramatic to go the persist.img route. So I will patiently wait for the update. I will keep the thread updated.

Touchscreen Dont Work after Update to android 10

Hi everyone
I Update my MI 9 Global to android 10 ( MIUI 11.0.6 Stable QFAMIXM) but after setup finish and phone rebooted the touch screen dont work any more.
one month ago my phone touchscreen broke and replaced and worked great before update (android 9 on MIUI 10.2 I think )
but after update it does not react at all . i installed custom recover twrp and installed new rom from xiaomi.eu but nothing changed. :crying:
I connect optical mouse throw otg cable to phone and every thing works normal. sound , network , wifi , bluetooth , camera , .... all work great but touch screen doesnt respond .
I think the problem is kernel dont load driver for touchscreen properly or the new android dont load firmware for touchscreen.
it is dmesg output :
https://pastebin.com/i4Cfyden
if you look at dmesg log you can see some line with error like :
"Firmware in the chip different from the one that was burn! " and "fts_fw_update: firmware update failed again! ERROR 82080B02"
please help me to solve this problem . if I have to use custom kernel or change and compile the driver for new touchscreen ??

based on dmesg log (Read FW from BIN file st_fts_f1.ftb !) firmware must be in file "st_fts_f1.ftb" but I cant find this file in phone memory. I have root access to phone and searched all folder ( including vendor and persist partitions )

Just flash the previous Android version that worked. It sounds as if you bought an aftermarket screen with different hardware.

Hi . I flash v11.06 using miflash and again tuch screen doesnt work . I checked clean all option in flash page

I Installed android 10 GSI Rom from https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations and touch screen and finger print sensor start to work !!
but GSI have some problem and limitation for mi 9 for example battery is not so good and full screen gusttures dont work. how is possible touch screen works with this rom but not by official Android 10 ?? If i can use some part of GSI with Official or Xaiomi.eu roms to enable touch screen ?

Maybe pocket mode is interfering on stock ROM?
Try a old stock Chinese ROM?
Start from very old..

How Can I test that ? And yes all android 9 ( official or xiaomi.eu ) work but have some minor finger print problem . But The only Android 10 that has not problem with touch screen is GSI rom even GSI v220 ( based on android 10 ) works . I dont know how this is possible ? I based On this I am sure the problem is software not hardware . A question Sir : If touch screen driver in Kernel (boot.img) or in vendor ? I think If I can merge vendors or kernel from android 9 with system and other from android 10 the problem is solved. Thank you and Please any Of your help and info can solve the problem

I have the same problem, Mi9 running MIUI10 Global, want to upgrade to MIUI11 but after update the touchscreen doesn't work, only via otg USB mouse. Tried to flash MIUI12 ia TWRP, again touchscreen doesn't work.
Have you solved the problem?

Same problem
Guys, has anyone managed to solve this problem?
Mi 9 After changing the screen the touch locks after a few minutes of use
My Mi 9's screen broke and I had to change it, but after a few minutes of use the touch simply stops working.
It happens a lot when I lock the screen, and I try to unlock it after a while.
Guys, I've been looking for the solution for some time but I just don't think so. I even found some forums saying to downgrade to version V10 but I still have this problem.
The screen is original, imported from CHINA and is of high quality.
Has anyone had this problem and can share the solution?

unfortunately i dont find any solution yet. and i think no one is kind enough to help us . Now I am sure it is kernel problem. i installed GSI android 10 on android 9 vendor and touch screen works great ( but have some other problem with GIS like cant recieve or send sms messages) So the problem Is kernel used in android 10 . even i installed Quantic-Kernel on aosp and after that again touch screen stop working.Please if any senior member who is familiar with android kernel help us to compile or change touch screen driver used in version 9 and solve the problem . Please Please

You can install new Rom and see if the problem gone or no . I recommentd you install new stock android 10 with MIUI 12 or xiaomi.eu rom .
If after new install problem exist it may be some hardware problem . Even before install new rom you can reset factory your phone and see what happens ( backup up your data before reset factory)

MIUI 12 Fingerprint Unlock defective

After upgrading to MIUI 12 Global OTA yesterday, fingerprint unlock stopped working. When I select fingerprint unlock in settings to switch it on and enter my PIN, phone goes dark and restarts (MIUI splash screen). Any suggestions? Phone is stock and not rooted.
Additional info: from CIT menu I ran the fingerprint sensor test. Result shows: all success. Next test (Fod fingerprint input test) gives following message: Your phone has password can not enroll fingerprint information
Not sure I understand the result of this test. Phone of course has a password (required to set fingerprint unlock).

You've got the same problem as me after update to miui12. Have you ever replaced the lcd on your phone? Because I did it.

I have the same problem, also changed the screen. I hope some one find a solution for this.. Now i went back to miui11

Eu também estou com esse problema, alguém tem que saber a solução.

I have the same problem. I updated from a fresh MIUI 11.06 (i wanted to remove orangefox cfw to do OTA update) to MIUI 12 via ota update. I didn't register fingerprint in fresh 11.06
OTA went perfectly but when I tried to register fingerprint it crashed and rebooted.
My screen was also replaced a couple of months ago, if the service center uses an original screen? I don't know. I should ask. They provide 2 year warranty on installed screen so maybe they should replace it with REAL one!!

Yah, could be your phone screen not original. Did your phone screen support 5 or 10 multitouch?
and if you already replace your screen on service center and try the fingerprint please update to this thread, I want to know the reason of this bug.

I asked the repair centre if they installed an original oem screen or not. Still waiting for reply.
10 point touch does work though.

Same problem
I'm having the same issue with my Redmi K20 Pro. My display was also replaced to a not original one and fingerprint was working fine at MIUI 11.
After updating via OTA to MIUI 12, it crashed every time I tried to unlock, restarting the device with an infite loop. After that, I made a factory reset, then configuration reset and reinstalled the OTA package but it still won't work.
Hope we can find a solution to this problem!

Question Xiaomi MI 11 problems with gyroscope, accelerometer and magnetic sensor

Hi,
I've bought a used MI 11 (8gb/256gb) phone. Did not pay attention during buying, so the issue might be present from the beginning: the gyroscope, accelerometer and magnetic sensors are not working. Steps I've already took:
- I've entered into CIT and I've went to calibration: they all fail. More precisely I open the e.g. gyroscope and then wait and nothing happens. Same with the other two sensors. Camera calibration also fails, I assume bc of one of this sensor is not working.
- I've already flashed persist.img via TWRP (i know, I have lost L1, so DON'T DO IT!) and that did not help.
- Tried fastboot / twrp flashing different roms (xiaomi.eu, xiaomi global, xiaomi chinese, xiaomi europe).
Is there anything I can do here? Is it possible that these 3 sensors are all physically broken? Are they actually just one sensor?
thanks!

iknow its a tipp with the bl, flash a tgz file then your problem with sensor are end, the tgz file make your system complett new it is better than flash a recovery rom the different is more than 1gb of partiion repair

But you loose wideline certificate. I warn you. (Wideline=Netflix in hd)

Flash a original rom with flashtool from Xiaomi without locking bootloader .

Question MI 11 ULTRA Random Restarts - Reboots

Hello dear community,
I have a problem with my Mi 11 Ultra, I been having a issue where my phone restarts randomly. (It can happen at any time, I can be on Youtube, Whatsapp, Maps, Idle, etc and the phone will suddenly flash a green screen and restart. Heavy use or light use, I cant detect a pattern .....)
I been having this Issue 2 month after I bought this phone with CHINA ROM MIUI 13
after that 2 months the restarts appeared.... (can´t remember if there was a System update or something but from April 2022 to May 2022 the phone was working excellent)
I have read that MIUI 13 in other POCO and Xiaomi Phones have the same behavior.. but cant find any solution for MI 11 ULTRA
What I have tried with no positive result:
(Wipe everything with TWRP, all the options,cache,data,interna,etc.)
Install STABLE MIUI EU ROM - Clean Install
Install Weekly MIUI EU ROM - Clean Install
Update Security app - Latest Version in APK Mirror
Delete Cache security app
Today I tried to install Global with MiFlash Tool but mi flash anti rollback check error occurred ;( (Don't know how to solve this...)
Do you think I have a defective Phone with bad Motherboard?
This is very frustrating and at this point I dont know if should buy a Xiaomi Phone again....
Any Help will be appreciated

Hi, i believe you are facing the issue when you are on wifi i am also facing same problem, when on mobile data there is no problem, can u confirm if its same? Wifi problem

in my case It happens on WiFi and mobile Data.

U can flash using platform tools to get rid of antiroll back, search for tutorial in YouTube, try miui 12.5

Global same issue..
Maybe a bad Motherboard?

So yesterday I Flashed OEM CN Rom, update with OTA and the problem persisted...
Then read about issues with restarts and Location Services in MIUI.
I Installed MIUI_EU Latest BETA ROM and deactivated location.
Right now I haven't experienced a single restart. Tomorrow I will activate location to see if the problem persists or maybe the update solved the problem.

Did anyone find a solution?
I bought mine on aliexpress and I have the same problem. It crashes and restarts numerous times a day.

Unlock bootloader and install global MIUI 13.0.4.
Very stable , no crashes/restarts.

the bootloader is unlocked. do i install the rom via fastboot or TWRP?

Both method should be fine .
If using TWRP , use format data option first, else system won't boot up.
If using Miflash use clean all but make sure don't use the lock option.

No, maybe is a motherboard issue. I bought this phone from giztop. I think I will return it and get my money back. I will never buy Xiaomi sh**** again.

in the first 24 hours yes. it was working perfect.
Then it started to restart and crash.
without solution.

I am having the same issue....
Please look in the /root/data/vendor/ramdump folder.
I am having lots of ramdumps eating space.

So just received the phone yesterday after sending it for repair to Xiaomi All the way back to China... And this piece of trash phone still rebooting.... Never buying again a phone from this trash company... Also Giztop is so unprofessional because they didn't solved the issue ... They told me that the phone was on perfect condition and they weren't able to solve it. Thanks to them I also had to pay 250usd of taxes because they send it like if it was a new unit... Give yourself a favor and don't buy from Giztopz, they send defective phones.

Try disabling the RAM extension feature.
Or try a custom rom like EvolutionX or CrDroid.
