Xiaomi Mi5s Plus touchscreen issues - Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers

The multitouch with 3 or more touches goes crazy
I would understand if it's a hardware or software problem, until now I have tried any rom for this phone and the problem remains.
Maybe the problem is in all Mi5s Plus.
The phone also has problems in Google maps pages (see the video)
You have the same problems?

touchscreen issue..

Yeah I have the same issue and another person on another forum reported this also.
I guess xiaomi went budget on the touch / digitizer or something. Might be ground related also?
I have not reported it to xiaomi or the store I bought the phone from..

I think this issue is software related instead. This maybe due to Glove Mode is turned on automatically and I cannot find any options in settings to turn it off (I found it somewhere in my previous Mi devices).

Broken accelerometer/orientation sensor

My z1c has an accelerometer that is broken. This means auto rotation doesn't work for example. Sometimes i can get it working by calibration and/or restart, but after a while the sensor will be off again. I'm testing with the app "android sensor". At the moment the sensor is stuck as if I'm holding my phone horizontally.
I'm running latest software, 14.3.A.0.757
Since i bought it while travelling in Thailand (not the smartest, but my old phone broke, so what to do..), I'm trying to see if anyone here has experience with this, before contacting Sony.
As far as my searches go, i have not been able to locate this as a known problem.
My accelerometer works perfect i have my phone since sunday. Maybe you should perform.a factory reset if that doesnt help its defenetly hardware issue.

I got the same problem. Bought it about 9 months ago in Uk. Since few months im on .108. I don't think that firmware is a problem coz it starts about 2 weeks ago. Accelelometer stop working every now and then. Reboot helps but not for long. Gonna contact o2 as still have warranty.
guys i have the same problem with my z1
seems like some software problem ..
because if the hardware is broken it would not start working after restarting
did any of you , opened your phone for replacing or something?
I had this problem too. All sensors would stop responding and give no readings in the service tests. A reboot would fix it for a couple days but the issue would always return. At the time I was running a 108 rom that I had downloaded from this forum, Russian I believe. Recently PC companion told me I had an update but the version was also 108. I did the update without wiping data and I haven't had the problem with the sensors for about 3 weeks.
Still not sure what caused it, it didn't start with my first loading of 108, but some time after that. My best guess is that some app hosed something up and a software update fixed it. Hope it doesn't come back.

Same here. I believe that the problem started when I changed my screensaver to one of the animated backgrounds with planets on it. On a first run it would work and rotate the planet render in the background when I tilted the phone. The next day it stopped working. I mean, the screensaver was on, but it would no detect orientation from the gryroscope. The screen also stopped autorotating when playing YouTube videos from the app, the compass app wasn't working and so on. I installed a few small sensor monitoring applications and all of the gave me no readings for the accelerometer or gyroscope sensors. Some other sensors were disabled, such as proximity, illumination level detect and so on. I was afraid that the accelerometer could be broken from humidity, pressure or a small drop that happened, but these small incidents could not explain the problem by their own (specially since the Z1c is thoroughly tested against all of these). I thought of maybe a faulty motherboard construction or whatever and starting considering the possibility of taking it back to the store for the guarantee, but before that I googled and came along this site and a couple others.
I fiddled a bit with Android menu config. settings but to no avail. I completely discarded the factory reset advice (that's SO crazy!).
When I rebooted the phone (no reset, just a regular off and on again process) all sensor readings were back on. I still didn't have the chance to check whether the problem might come back in a few days or not.
The cause may or may not be on the planets screensaver app. I also used Google Earth, YouTube and a few other apps the day sensors stopped working, but none of these gave problems in the past.
Fingers crossed for this issue not reappearing.
Hello everybody on my Z1 accelerometer compass gyroscope and light sensor does not work! any help please?
Yesterday I've had the same trouble, screen orientation stopped working. Apps using the acceleration sensor stopped working (Google Sky i.e.)
First I did a factory reset without any change, still no function. As I still have warranty, I wanted to prepare the phone to send it to Sony for repair. So I switched the phone off, removed SIM and SD (what I haven't done before) and switched it on again. Then I did a factory reset once again and here we go the sensor went back to work.
Probably the factory reset is "deeper" if there's no SIM and SD card in the phone? Who knows.

Zenfone 2 ZE550ML camera KO after screen replacement

A few days ago I have ordered and then replaced the LCD of my Zenfone 2. Sending it back to repair the display was as expensive as buying a new phone, so I decided to take the risk. I followed the instructions I found on the internet and I succeded. Both touch and display work after replacement, and all other components work too, except for camera functions. Now when I open any camera app (Google Camera, Zenfone Pixelmaster camera and so on) I get the infamous "camera failed to launch, please reboot your device". After cleaning up both application cache and system cache (I have even tried flashing an older firmware version) I decided to check both the flat cables connecting the front camera and rear camera to the phone's motherboard, with no success.
Any clue about how to proceed ?
Any chance that trying a different ROM (such as Cyanogen) might fix my problem ?
I have read that many users are experiencing that nefarious camera message, however I haven't found any effective solution so far, and without a clue I can't figure out if one of the two cameras is broken or damaged...
Suggestions ?
Thanks in advance and have a nice day

UPDATE 1: installed CM 12.1 following tutorial. Everything working except for camera. Tried both Google stock camera app and A Better Camera (free trial). Google stock says "cannot connect to camera" A Better camera shows a black background and does nothing else...
UPDATE 2
I just received a spare Zenfone 2 from another guy that, after breaking the screen, decided to sell it for spare parts instead of repairing it.
I have turned it on as soon as it arrived via mail and..guess what ? Camera issue is there too!
I have tried the following:
1) swap both camera modules and motherboard to my Zenfone 2
2) vice versa (put my camera modules on the newly received motherboard)
3) hard reset and reload all system images on both phones.
Issue is still unsolved. I'm starting to think that the camera problem is a "sort of anti tampering" implemented by Asus.
As soon as you unscrew the phone, something breaks - or at least detects the tampering - blocking the camera.
There's no other way to explain...
Any suggestion ? Did anyone effectively solved the problem ?
Please, don't leave me alone in this thread..

ZENFONE 2: camera failed to launch
Dear Azrahel
My Zenfone 2 phone exactly encountered the same problem, probably because of a software update/installation and so on. I simply rebooted the phone into the SAFE MODE (simply long press the power button then LONG TAP the shutdown then confirm the reboot into the safe mode). In the safe mode I found that the camera works normally. Then I simply rebooted the phone (in order to enter the normal environment) and now the camera works! I hope that you can fix the bug by this simple process.
Did you find a solution for this? I'm encountering the same issue after I replaced the display. The connectors seem to be in well. Maybe I broke something small internally without even knowing and that causes both cameras not to function.

Miui 12.5 issue?

Hi I have recently bought a second hand redmi note 8 pro to use with a drone I have also recently purchased.
everything has been working fine. Until last night 21/07/21 I had a notification of the new miui 12.5 update. which I left to do its thing. The issue is the screen does not respond to touch. it appears to boot up ok gets to the screen shown. I have had it on fastboot screen and also wiped all data (can't seem to get mi assistance to work.)
Has anyone else had the update/ issue?
How would you recommend proceeding.
I have the same problem (Redmi Note 8 Pro Global - MI firmware). After updating from 12.0.8, the touchscreen stopped working.
I had to roll back through the fastboot. I also tried to flash version 12.5.1.0 via fastboot - the problem persists.
The phone had a replacement display module, but with an original one.
There is an idea to try to flash it with a version for Indonesia or China, but so far I have not tested it.
Issue with SIM selection for calling on MIUI 12.5 Global - Redmi Note 8 Pro​
Anyone experiencing this bug with default SIM for call?
The Google Dialer will ask for which SIM to call on reboot even tho I already set it as SIM1 or SIM2 in the Settings.
The workaround is manually reselecting the SIM but only effective till next reboot.
Same exclusive Xiaomi Update Fail Forget about help or information from the official Support.
Connect a mouse with a USB-C to USB Adapter and backup your personal data.
I have exact same issue on this update. I also replaced the screen some time ago. I belive it's android 11 problem, because CFWs like PE doesn't work too. ROMs with Android 10 also seems weird to me, because digitizer keeps "jumping" and clicking random places. Android 9 - all works perfectly fine. I am going to find out which partition is used to use touchscreen and check if it's possible to flash it over PE ROM to solve the problems.
I have some problems after updating to MIUI 12.5.1:
1. Have to repeat the procedure twice for uploading any picture from gallery to anywhere on Internet. It doesn't work in first attempt.
2. Fingerprint sensor shows many errors off & on. 3-4 attempts to open the phone. Tried re-registering my fingers.
3. Option of Completely Hide Notch gone
4. While playing Facebook videos, sound continues, video stops.
Too annoying these bugs are.

Yes, the great manufacturer has kept its information behind the mountain. I have just found a contribution to this in the mi community.
It only briefly mentions that repairs should be made with an official display. I also do not understand why Xiaomi makes such a secret of it and does not give the reasons. Link
I have installed the Global 12.0.5 Stable QGGEUXM and I am also aware of these display anomalies.
Do you have any results in the project?

I've tested all partitions but any of them seems to be changing display driver. So sorry, no luck there, I think we're stuck with android 9. It looks like it is hard-coded into firmware.

I noticed a break in a layer of the display within 14 days of use. There was no heavy use or pressure on the display. Xiaomi - K.O.
How to bring back the option of "Completely Hide the Notch" in MIUI 12.5.1?
I have just realised I didn't update. I was having lots of trouble fixing this. I think my reply from xiaomi was wait for the next update this might fix it.
Thank you to Boo-Kah-Kee, I never knew you could plug a mouse in.
anyway I eventually got it back to the prievious rom by following this Video.
No more updates it works fine.

Proximity Sensor Problem - MI10T 5G

I have been having a lot of problems with the Proximity Sensor on my MI10T 5G.
When raise the phone against my ear to take a call.. the display does not go off and i accidentally keep pressing mute and other buttons by mistake.. this has become a big problem.
Xiaomi has told me to do a complete factory reset once and set up my phone again and test it.
If it's still a problem, then could be a hardware issue.
But I searched and seen that many people are facing the same problem... Any solution out there ??
i was having that issues with the default google phone app at mi 10t pro.
i am using true phone now instead of google and i have 0 issues

Question OP9 Pro Netflix unwatchable, darkness problem with HDR content (LE2123_11_C.62)?

Hi, first of all, I did all the googling, read reddit etc. so the following problem seems to be quite common, u find it a lot on the internet, but maybe I have not seen a possible fix yet...
So, I got the OP9 Pro yesterday, did all the updates, so iam on LE2123_11_C.62 EU right now. When I watch netflix, the dark / black colours, are so dark, I cant see anything. Video quality looks really, really bad, basically unwatchable. Brightness in the system and netflix settings obv highest possible lvl.
I tried the following:
- changed all the video/picture enhancement options in the settings menu, on/off, combinations, everything. Nothing helped.
- Restarted the phone, tried PIP, uninstalled the Netflix app via ADB (u cant uninstall it manually caus they put it as systems app...), reinstalled via play store
- turned off HW-Overly or so in developer settings, caus someone said this will fix it, it didnt.
I basically read 2h of reddit and whatever not threads, I tried so many possible fixxes, nothing helped.
The colours/blacks are so bad, I cant watch netflix at all, makes no sense. It seems to be a long term problem of this phone, caus u find people complaining abt this back from their OP 7. This is only a problem with the dark/black colours and probably HDR?
For a almost 1000€ Phone, this is just ridiclious... I come from a Poco x3 and even though that screen was garbage, at least it would play netflix content properly...
Maybe I missed smt and there is a fix for this?
Thx so much, if I dont find a way to fix it, this phone goes back to OP.
no idea what to tell you. i'm stock and rooted no issues. have u tried uninstalling netflix and reinstalling after a restart? if that persist try reinstalling your current or latest firmware. OP9 Pro is a great phone with a spectacular screen
Hello ,
I have exactly the same dark and yellowish image problem on netflix and amazon prime video.
it seems that the problem only occurs in hdr or high quality video. so I think that with the netflix 1 screen or 2 screens subscription there should not be the same problem.
indeed in the netfix settings if I lower the video quality (saving data) the image becomes much brighter.
I think there is really a big bug on hdr content, and what is more worrying is that the problem is still present in the oos13 beta despite the problem having been reported several times...
the problem seems to be known for a long time and still not corrected and affecting many users:

Is there a way to effectively resolve this issue?
Apparently not...I'm on one plus 8t on Android 13 and the black section are simply unwatchable
