Broken(?) gyroscope sensor - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers

Hello everyone. My friend bought a Redmi Note 5 (Global version) and one day suddenly the camera interface as well as the photos taken went upside down. Even the auto rotation doesn't work. Is there any way to recalibrate the gyroscope sensor because we don't have an official xiaomi service center in my country and it needs to be sent abroad unless I find a solution.
Thanks in advance

Okay it turns out it needed to be dropped to the ground to get fixed. Just in case anyone has the same issue and calibration doesn't fix it.

r u joking?
or realy fix it?

[Q] SXU Keypad problem

Hi, new SXU user here. Just noticed that letter Q on my keypad is not working when its in portrait mode. But its ok when my phone is in landscape mode. Tried flashing stock ics rom already but that didn't solve the problem. Is it a hardware problem already?
i dont think is a hardware problem because it is working in normal mode so you have a soft problem go with our phone tu a repair
already tried that but it didn't worked too, even flashing with custom roms didn't help :crying:

dial *#*#7378423#*#*
go to service tests
go to touchscreen
now draw anything and notice whether the area where q is present is still black or it has some lines on it

i think is hardware problem
so the only solution for that is by replacing the lcd already? :crying:

Vibration issue after last update

After last official update (7.3.2.0) on Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon I got issue with vibration.
Button and keyboard vibration randomly stops working 5-10-15min and then works again.
Anybody else?
Nobody else have this issue after last update?
it can be an update issue?
I also face the same problem. How can we resolve this?
My mobile vibration gone completely please help me
Thanks
Issues with official updates, are better discussed in miui thread, I guess?
Think your problem is the same as mine. Motor stop working randomly and start doing is job again in the same way.
Thought was a software problem, realized is an hardware one since i noticed that, when he stop vibrating, if i shake the phone, hes starting again.

You can send your phone in a xiaomi center. I saw you are from india, so you should have no problem. I'm from italy, this means i've to sent it back to china and wait a life to get it back. This is why i didnt resolved the problem and i lost interess on it
Think i'm going to wait the expire of the warranty and try to fix it by my own: i saw some videos and already tried to open the device, it shouldn't be difficult

No, the problem was because of loose connections so I reconnect the motor strip and also put a piece of paper inside the motor slot and tighten the motor. Now it is working fine.

I opened up my phone.
If you are not an advance user or don't have experience how to deal with phone hardware, I recommend you to go o service centre.
Otherwise you want to do yourself then first of all you have to check that if the motor is working or not. If the motor is working then you have to check the connection points the problem with me was because of loose connections and the motor was not tighten. Just check these points and you are good to go.
PS :- I always recommends to go to service centre because opening the phone voids the warranty
This is my situation.
(If the video doesnt work, follow the link https://youtu.be/bzCTTU_iF6w directly).

Touch issue on 3rd Input

Does anyone have this issue? This can affect in gaming... Like when I am using 4 finger claw in pubg. All most every time, i cant move my camera.
If anyone want to check this issue, download touch screen test app.. When u input 2 finger, the touch is solid...but when 3rd input comes... Its like fading away. Its like i am not touching it at all.
Anyone have any fix?? This is so problematic.
Please someone help....

Is it three finger screen capture problem it?
Hi there my friend.
I have the same problem with my POCO. In my previous cell phone, I played PUBG with triggers, but in this cell I can not move, aim and shoot at the same time. I think it's because of the same problem as the toch.
I did the same test with the program and there if you recognize all the touches of the screen in the same way.

It's either ROM/kernel issue, mine was working perfectly with triggers in AICP but broke in MSM-Xtended, didn't work in most of the custom kernel, but it's working on canting kernel (if you okay to test yourself)
