Sounds more like you have some malware app on your phone which installs that stuff...

If you have Magisk, install the dolby plugin. It than switches to an upgraded qualcomm driver. Works like a charm on my Mi5S, so I see no reason why you wouldn't profit from it with an Mi5.

To rule out a software malfunction you could try to install a completely other ROM like LineageOS. If it also doesn't work on that one, the sensor is indeed probably dead.

Glad it worked eventually. And you're welcome. I like my small puzzles from time to time. ;)

What exactly have you tried to do? BTW, it can take a while to install, so you could also just try again and wait more (up to 10 minutes I would say). Also check your downloaded ROM's sumcheck (WinMD5 is the program I use, original string can be found on the download page of the ROM). Maybe you...

Having the same problem across multiple apps (including uploading to cloud services like Dropbox and Sync.com). Doesn't seem to matter if you use another file manager (in my case Solid Explorer). If I recall it wasn't the case a few months ago, but I'm not sure when it started as I don't do this...

Reflash the ROM (with Dalvik cache en cache wipe of course, and no need for a full wipe). And make sure you don't install GApps over it as the Play store is already included. Also, don't put back the backup as stuff will stay intact with a dirty flash (and it can screw up your Play Store again)...

It does matter, although someone else has to say why. My experience has proven that it's a bit more risky, so at least make a backup first. Yet again, I had no problem with any beta since I have a Xiaomi phone (half year or so and "servicing" the ones from my GF and mom), so you could try to use...

Most of the times it has something to do with battery saving settings. Disable all for Whatsapp and make sure you are using the latest MIUI update (from here of the official ones) as the older ones do have a lot of issues with this. There are also apps that keep your internet connection awake...

Without additional apps? No, sorry. But you can remove apps with "System app remover (ROOT)", which obviously needs root access. To change defaults: Settings > Installed Apps > Default apps If the settings don't change to your likings, than you also have to find another app for that. But I...

You should be able to just install 6.5.25 without problems. Most people don't have trouble with MIUI 8 (at least not with the latest versions), so if you change your mind you should do the following: First this one: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/6-5-26-last-miui-7.31811/ Then...

You could try to update with increments of half years. Can't be hard to find the downloads on the official MIUI site. When bumping to a new android or major MIUI version just find the first release for your phone and read the instructions. If there is no mention about data loss, you are probably...

According to miui forums: MIUI 9 China ROM Supported Devices: Mi 6, Mi 5s Plus, Mi 5s, Mi 5c, Mi 5, Mi 4S, Mi 4c, Mi 4, Mi 3, Mi 2/2S, Mi MIX, Mi Max 2, Mi Max, Mi Note 2, Mi Note/Pro, Mi Pad 2, Mi Pad 1, Redmi Note 4X (MTK), Redmi Note 4X (SD), Redmi Note 4, Redmi Note 3 (MTK), Redmi Note 3...

If you look at the threads in XDA about LineageOS on the Mi5S, you can find a separate file (search for the newest) with the firmware updates from Xiaomi you can flash over any ROM. In that case you can know for sure you have the latest.

Best bet is to look at OpenCamera, as you can specify it manually with any option your device can possibly do. No idea if the quality is actually better though, as the dataflow into the memory and sharpening techniques in the driver are the bottlenecks most of the times.

Still the Qualcomm SOC as it is the most energy-efficient (by a big margin) and reliable. Plus indeed the custom firmware support, which comes in handy after a few years. The Helio x25 is a tad faster, but you will barely notice a difference unless you game a lot. /EDIT: I bought a Redmi 4 Pro...

I flashed this mod, as it brings it to the level of LOS. But I'm still unsatisfied with the DAC in this phone as it is far inferior to my OnePlus One. https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/soundmod-ainur-audio-t3450516

For some reason the youtube app works really choppy and without sound. Also, the headphones are specified as "HiFi" in the volume menu. Running on a Mi5s. Rebooting doesn't help and I didn't have the problem a few hours ago.

For me the update works like a charm on my Mi5s. Again thanks for the effort and the support between all the hectic screaming of people who don't read!
