Shortly after the final availability of Android 12, Xiaomi rushed to start the process of testing this software on some of its Mi 11 smartphones. However, it is now known that said firmware is causing problems for users.
The first reports are that the update to Android 12 is compromising the functioning of the Xiaomi Mi 11, Mi 11i and Mi 11 Pro. In other words, it makes these smartphones true “bricks”.
Android 12 seriously compromises the operation of the Xiaomi Mi 11
It is important to note that Android 12 is still in the testing phase for these smartphones. Therefore, this type of update is known to be quite prone to instabilities and some bugs.
However, no one would expect that the new firmware would make the Xiaomi Mi 11, Mi 11i and Mi 11 Pro unfeasible. Indeed, they are V12.5.1.0.SKBMIXM, V12.5.1.0.SKKMIXM and V12.5.1 0.SKAMIXM , respectively, the causes of the reported problems.
The causes of this problem have yet to be determined. It is not known if this is an issue that affects all models included in the beta program or if it is a rare setback.
In light of this, Xiaomi offered to repair the equipment in question and asked users to send their device to a service center. In this way, the Chinese company will be able to return “life” to injured smartphones.
This is another warning of the instability that trial software versions can present. All brands emphasize this to their users every time they join beta programs, and they are responsible for what may happen.
In this case, fortunately, Xiaomi is ready to repair the affected Xiaomi Mi 11s. If you haven’t joined the Android 12 beta program yet, this news will definitely make you think better before you do.
