[Q] Random freeze rebooting Xiaomi Mi5 problem!

I bought new Mi5 and I still didn't put Sim card inside wanted to configure and see what phone can but when I entered configuration menu after 1st power up I manage to choose language and few things more and phone rebooted, then I manage to almost finish configuration then freeze and reboot again, after few tries I finished configuration but freeze (usually only last few seconds) and reboot happen again. Then phone offered me update software which I manage to reach from 3rd time and successfully update only with Mi PC Suite, not from phone update app. Interesting, all flashing proces with Mi PC Suite always is going as should be, without reboots etc... Crap happen only in OS. Now I got latest China stable (I bought phone in China) which has same problem with rebooting. Then I wiped all I can, factory reset etc...nothing helps.
-Still didn't unlock phone in case I need to return it.
-Didn't try global Rom because I can't flash it
I was reading forums and found a lot people have same problem but didn't find what they done on the end to make phone work.
If anyone have some solution, let me know. Returning phone from EU to China is not 1 day Or does someone know if someone in EU can service this if needed?
thanks in advance

huh,
I solved (for now) problem with installing this, developer version of miui 8 from here
http://xiaomiadvices.com/download-miui-8-6616-china-developer-rom-recoveryfastboot/
Downloaded it and installed with English version of MI PC Suite. Developer rom is Chinese (as my default software version in phone) over latest Chinese 7.3.10 miui
With original software phone was restarting, freezing randomly every 30 seconds or 1 minute of usage.
Now need to wait to unlock phone so I can use Global version of rom to get play store etc...

Rog Phone 2 Issues

I have encountered several bugs with the Rog Phone 2
First of all I am unable to create a Google account with Mobile Data. Everytime I try to create an account, I get the message: "There was a problem communicating with Google servers". However, with WiFi it works just fine
The second issue is that my LED notification light does not seem to flash when I get a text message or any kind of notification. The only time the LED is on is when the phone is charging (amber colour) or when battery is low (flashes red)
The third issue I am facing is that YouTube sometimes will not load with mobile data. I have to first open YouTube with WiFi, then, and only then will it load/open with mobile data. If I don't use YouTube for around 2 hours, the same thing happens again, I need to open it with WiFi first and only then it will open with mobile Data.
Last and final issue is that I have the old software with the July 2019 security patch. When I spoke to ASUS Chat on the phone, they told me to download the new firmware from their website. I downloaded the firmware and attempted to flash it via placing the room in the "Root" folder and restarting the phone. When I restarted the phone, on the too left corner of the screen it said there was a software update available (the Rom which I downloaded from ASUS) However, after tapping update, I got the message "unable to update"
Can anyone please help? Any advice/solutions would be highly appreciated!
I have the Tencent version of the Rog Phone 2 however it has the Global Rom on it (the WW ROM)
Apart from these "issues" the phone is perfect. I cannot fault the phone in any other aspect.
I look forward to some solutions ?

Although you may have WW Rom flashed, you probably still need to change the fingerprint to WW too, have a read of that thread for instructions...

Sorry which thread are you referring to? And when I purchased the phone it had the WW flashed already. Do you have any solutions for my problems I'm facing ?

this thread, have a read of it and other posts. install device info HW from playstore and you'll probably see that the product id and fingerprint (under system) are both CN, although the rom itself is WW. you need to change to everything to WW following that thread... then you can update

Cant Turned on WIFI/BT, Already Flashed for BT still not working

Hi , its been a year since i bought xiaomi mi 9-global rom(128GB) and all work properly.
if im not mistaken the first rom when i bought is MIUI 10 , then the last time i update if im not mistaken is around september in MIUI 12.02 for the latest security patch.
Suddenly problem occurs recently maybe around a week. where my Wifi & Bluetooth disconnected by the system and cant be turned on but it fixed it self as i restart and now its never fixed.
I already some of fixed below :
- Restart devices
- Wipe all data
- Factory reset
- Try to flash the ROM from official one MIUI 12.02
- Following some tutorials that reset bluetooth and wifi settings
- Try downgrading MIUI version to 11
but still didnt work the Wifi & Bluetooth setting always crash & cant be turned on , try CIE or CIU test found out that the proximity sensor also didn't work.
I also tried some tutorials that do in EDL mode to install persist mode but its not working due to the Authentication it says" i dont have the permission"
Is there anyway i can fixed the Bluetooth & Wifi in this device?? The Mobile Data is still working and other features still working except Proximity Sensor, WIFI, Bluetooth.
Is the only way is to let the xiaomi store fixed it?? this is my only phone so i need it alot and the office store probably going to take long since pandemic.
Please help me Xiaomi Pro's out there :crying:
Edit :
- my xiaomi account already match with the phone the proof is i can unlocked OEM using the xiaomi. But it seems i still dont have permissions to flash EDL.

I think it's safe as miui could be.
But be shure to follow step by step and take right rom version. If it's working you can flash original miui or custom roms.

Thanks for the suggestion, after i tried to flash to EU ROM i got new MIUI version which 12.04 , in global its 12.02. However the problem still happening or still remain unsolved. The bluetooth & wifi still cant be turned on, i tried on CIT it also not working and everytime the i try to open wifi & bluetooth settings , the settings always freeze and crash probably because it error. Is there any other solution you can provide?
Thanks

I think, if you have done a really clean flash with formating data, that it's a hardware problem.

yes, i did i already follow the instructions & having no error at all for the ROM and other stuff except the WiFi & Bluetooth.
But for me its just really weird, my phone looks still great from outside no bend, dent, or crack it never fall as well.
The problem starts occurring by itself like the system is forcing the Bluetooth & WiFi to off then at some point the WiFi is connected but not transferring any data after restart everything fixed then its not working at all, which when i tried to turn it on it will freeze or the system not responding or off by itself.
btw appreciate your answer, i'm still waiting for other solution if possible :crying:

Are you shure that you've got a global version. I had nearly the same probs as I've flashed the global on my eu hardware.

In my personal opinion there're 2 possibilities
Damaged hardware
Or
Modem Partition wrong or damaged
MODEM or RADIO - the phone's radio
Also called baseband, it is responsible for signals and on older devices may control wifi, bluetooth, and GPS (on most newer devices, these are handled by the kernel and ROM). Upgrades are country dependent and may improve or diminish battery performance, network signal strength, and roaming capability. It is also sometimes required to have a minimum Baseband version to use a ROM so that the RIL will play nice with the Baseband.
Modem firmware is a mini-OS for the cellular radio chip which has its own processor. Firmware is a general term, firmware exists for a lot of things on phone. The wireless chip for WiFi, GPS, and Bluetooth often has a firmware as can the GPU core among other things. These firmware files are usually located inside the SYSTEM or VENDOR partition. The modem firmware is special because it has its own separate Baseband Processor (BP) so the firmware is left out of the system image in its own partition.
Modem is not an Android-specific partition. It is tied to the hardware of the phone, but the kernel has a code allowing Android to interact with the hardware. But the baseband processor (BP) - which runs modem and is responsible for all communication through mobile networks e.g. call, SMS and internet - is totally isolated from Application Processor (the one we call CPU) and is not governed by Android kernel; it runs an independent RTOS.
May it helps you for getting a solution....

Maybe i just dont have any other option except to fix in mi store.
Once again thanks for the help :fingers-crossed:.

Question Does USB Tethering work for you on your Mi11 Ultra on 12.5.3 Global/Stable

Hi,
I received my Global Mi11 Ultra yesterday, did the set up, upgraded to 12.5.3 and then wanted it to use as a modem on my Router. I am from Germany and many Germans do use Fitzboxes, my Fritz!Box is the 7590. So, i unplugged my Poco F3 and wanted to use the Mi Ultra instead, it did not work. No matter what I have tried, no.
I tried:
- factory reset
- different cable
- router restart
- USB Debugging
I also connected the phone to a pc to see if the USB is generally working, yes it is. So do you guys have this problem or is it just me?
Is there anything I could try?
Please let me know.
Greetings from Germany

USB tethering not work on my Ultra - EU version. My phone came from china with CN version and I flashed it with last EU.

Hi Niakoi, thx for your answer. So, it seems this is a huge bug. Hopefully they will fix it within the next FW Update. What FW version number are you on exactly, if I may ask?

USB tethering works ok on my 12 Ultra using latest EU weekly 12.6.2
I just plugged it in to my PC, set USB tethering on and the windows PC picked it up as an ethernet network, see screenshots

Thx for the feedback.
I used the unlock tool today, so I have to wait 168 hours from now on and will flash the famous EU ROM. Really looking forward to it, I am still stuck on 12.5.3

I found this fix that worked for oneplus I tested personally on my Mi 11 Ultr with official EEA 12.5.3 firmware and worked for me because I couldn't use it as a 5.0Ghz hotspot, now it is working
Here how you can fix the tethering problem (usb, bt or wifi hotspot)
1) Connect the phone to your pc via usb (debugging)
2) Launch the command prompt
3) Launch command ADB shell
4) Launch command:
settings get global tether_dun_required
If the result is "null" or "1" go to next step
5) Launch command:
settings put global tether_dun_required 0
6) Exit from ADB
7) Reboot your phone and try the hotspot.
I confirm this worked fom me on my global device with unlocked bootloader and official EEA firmaware 12.5.3

Hi xNAPx,
thx for getting back to me. I flashed my phone to the latest stable EU custom ROM 12.5.7. That did not fix the problem. I find that very strange.
Then I tried your approach and got this, when I tried to enter the last command. My result was "null" btw.
command: settings put global tether_dun_required 0
Exception occurred while executing 'put':
java.lang.SecurityException: Permission denial: writing to settings requires:android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

I really do not know what that means. My guess is, I do not have the correct write settings enabled? If so, where or how can I fix this? Please let me know, because I would like to try your method.
Thx and greetings from Germany

That's fine after you run the command just reboot your phone. Just be aware that the fix doesn't look persistent, switching off the phone for example will delete this setting and you need to run the command again. Another thing you could do is to modify the APN settings and put in connection type the value DUN after supl, for example: internet,mms,supl,DUN. But I haven't tried this myself

Hi again, just tried the whole process again, no luck. My damn, very expensive phone, cant do USB tethering on my router. That is very bad.
I could try to hop on the custom EU betas, but I am not in the mood to try that out atm.
Thx for your help.

Well my issue was with the hotspot not seen at 5ghz for me that worked, about usb thetering I can't say, I'm sorry it didn't work for you, try to search on Google,something will come out for sure. Most of the time same issues are find on other android devices

All I can say is:
Most MiUI Devices have this problem. realme 8, Poco (can't remember which one) and so on. Maybe its something between Fritz!Box (router) and Xiaomi. But it sucks big time.

Question [Help] Wifi unstable after flash

Hello all,
Trying my luck here.
I have a 11T Pro (Vili), International. I was using PE GSI and it was just perfect... fast, no issue, etc...
I wanted to do a small update on Magisk, and i've crashed the boot. Well, nothing bad, i'm used to that kind of thing, reinstall blablabla... and now Wifi is broken.
Wifi is working randomly :
- It takes ages to scan networks
- It connect, and disconnect after a few seconds
- Once connected bandwidth is not good
- Wifi button get disable without any reasons
And that : Randomly
Wifi is working for other devices
What i've done / tried
- Reinstalling multiple version of PE GSI
- Reinstalling MIUI Rom (with Miflash, and the firmwares) : for International and Europe, multiple versions...
- Flash modem.img
- Flash persist.img (in fastboot, not EDL)
Each time, the same : Wifi is not working correctly. I see the mac address in the OS. But Wifi keep connecting, disconnecting, etc...
Phone network is working perfectly (5G, etc...)
If anyone has any idea, i'm lost. I never had that kind of issue.
Thank you

Android 11 version and mi flash fastboot rom?

Ho sorry, my brain wasn't working anymore, i hadn't tried going back so much regarding the version
Just flashed a Android 11 (Miui 12.5) and wifi seems to be back online and working.
I'm gonna update to latest MIUI and tried to reflash PE, and will confirm here
If it works : i own you a box of chocolate, a bottle of cognac, whatever is your poison !

Do you like to play with fire, GSI rom+Magisk+modules=?
There are AOSPs available.

Regarding the PE : i had it on my last phone. And when i switched to the 11T Pro, i've just checked the forums and people were saying to go with the GSI.
I've tried, and it was fine until now.
For info : I've updated through OTA from 12.5 to 13 (latest MIUI) : and wifi is back down !
God damn, that's crazy
Reverting to A11 !

For anyone getting to this thread : people on Xiaomi forums confirmed to me the Wifi issue with the last firmwares with some 11T.

Avoid stable Beta roms, latest Stable V13.0.7.0.SKDMIXM

It was with this one that i had issues.
I've tested V13.0.6.0 and V13.0.7.0 and both we're creating problems for me, and it was confirmed by users that are with MIUI. Both are labeled "Stable" but users report some problems with them
I unfortunately don't remember which firmwares was on my phone when i've got it
