I think that raziel1 has already answered that question? Use Gyrator2 or Gsen both of which can be found in this forum.

It does seem to be missing a trick by not have some software button built in to switch the screen though.
[Touch HD General] NeoS:
I had one flaw with the HD: The typing. I wanted (like Iphone) to use the keyboard in landscape so i had more room for my fingers. But the HD doesn't do that standard.

I installed Gyrator 2 and set it to switch to landscape when i use my keyboard. In every application, now when I use my keyboard and tilt the device, the screen rotates.

It made my HD even better. ;)
[Touch HD General] tboy2000:
Which is better? Gsen or Gyrator? I know they have other features but I only want an app to rotate landscape and uses minimal memory as I guess it needs to be running on start up.
[Touch HD General] BANE:
ok, gyrator is a PROGRAM. I thought it was another handset or something. oh as long as there is soemthing you can do te get the landscape working that's sweet for me. I'm really close to buying one of these beasts!:)
[Touch HD General] Beards:
I'm surprised that TomTom doesn't rotate automatically.

I've sure I've seen screen shots of it in Landscape mode and wouldn't have thought those web site's had installed any other third-party screen orientation software.

Beards.
[Touch HD General] globalgpj:
You can also purchase Resco keyboard. It has large keys that you can use with your fingers. Well that depends how big your fingers are. Best to download a copy of the program, install it and test it out.

And since the screen is 3.8, it should give you plenty of space on top to see your message?
[Touch HD General] syqe:
has anyone tried this?

I'd like to see a full landscape keyboard, but can't find any pics/vids if u could try, and post it I'd be most appreciative.

best regards
[Touch HD General] Huck33:
you can use gsen

look here
[Touch HD General] obstler:
has anybody successfully tried gyrator on the hd? i just installed .net compact framework 3.5 and then gyrator, but when I try to start it I get a ObjectDisposedException...

any ideas?
[Touch HD General] Jezwick:
its runs on mine but its a bit hit and miss on the orientation sometimes !!!!
[Touch HD General] obstler:
yeah, after another reboot it's working now. tried it in a couple apps and seems fine so far... funny thing is with the streaming video app, when you go to fullscreen it auto rotates the screen, but as soon as you move the hd to landscape position gyrator rotates it again... will need to check out the docs on how to add exceptions.
[Touch HD General] brainfogs:
i have the same problem, ... i have downloaded the latest version of gyrator 2 ...and when i restart the device , it request to onstall new version of .net compact framework ( it hink to download the 3,5 version) ..; i have the same error message : ObjectDisposedException

what can i do ...because gsen is too unstable ( read in feedbacks) ???

thanks
[Xiaomi Mi 11] M.Walaa:
So as the title says, i woke up today and my Wifi isn't working for some reason. I try to turn it on but it wont even turn on. I am on MIUI 13 global and have been on it for quite sometime. Has anybody else encountered a similar issue?
[Xiaomi Mi 11] azid96:
Sorry to be bearer of bad news but it looks like your WiFi chip is fried which is a defect in most Mi 11's ☹️
[Xiaomi Mi 11] M.Walaa:
:( why though, I've had it for quite some time now and I went to sleep one day and today it was like that with no reason whatsoever. I'll go to the service center ASAP. You think they can just fix the broken part or do they have to change multiple components or something?
[Xiaomi Mi 11] azid96:
If it's still in warranty you'll get a new phone otherwise board would be replaced....sadly this always how it happens either when you restart it or the other morning I really hope mine doesn't happen 🥺 it's related to device being consistently overheated
[Xiaomi Mi 11] seemebreakthis:
Make sure you take action quick as wifi failure is a precursor to the main motherboard getting fried.

Source: personal experience. Just had my Mi 11 motherboard replaced under warranty. Luckily only lost one week's worth of data as I did a backup prior to the whole phone going kaput.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] hhwjthje:
The issue seems to be more complex than what meets the eye. Qca6490 is both the wifi and Bluetooth 5.0 chipset, having it break would mean making both of them nonfunctional but we know that's not the case for Bluetooth.

I have a theory about what the issue is but I don't have enough data to confirm it. It would help me if you could download Device Info HW from PlayStore and get screenshot of SOC, SYSTEM and THERMAL tab(of the latter it would be better if the device was cooled down, data disabled. I would just need screens of modem-wifi-usr, the four voices starting with pm, wireless-therm, wifi-therm)
[Xiaomi Mi 11] M.Walaa:
My bluetooth is fine as well, I uploaded the pictures you want though am not sure if they are the ones you want but i am definitely interested in your theory
[Xiaomi Mi 11] hhwjthje:
Are these taken when the phone was cooled down and data was either turned off or turned on by no more than a few seconds? In any case I would need the temps of pm8350, all the three voices and pm735, scroll down and you can find them easily
[Xiaomi Mi 11] Olmaik:
heh funny, exactly same thing happened to me two days go and not even on miui 13, i try to hard reset and update phone to miui 13 to see if its software issue but nope, so i have give phone to service under warranty second time, first time was display, really dissapointed with those issue on one year old flagship model :(
[Xiaomi Mi 11] M.Walaa:
yes and yes, I hope those are of any use.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] hhwjthje:
Yes, they are extremely useful
[Xiaomi Mi 11] M.Walaa:
So, any useful insight?
[Xiaomi Mi 11] M.Walaa:
1- I am not sure I understand what you mean by bluetooth voice.

2- While am not a techie in this particular field and don't fully understand the scope of this point, I'd like to offer an uninformed opinion nonetheless based on my academic background.

Could it be that the heat that is spread throughout the motherboard has to do with a defective vapor chamber? It is a well-known fact that SD888 is a behemoth when it comes to its heat output, most companies address this by adding a vapor chamber in their phones to dissipate the heat and if I remember anything from my heat transfer classes, it stands to reason that a defective VC would lead to heat not dissipating properly, leading to the entire motherboard having issues and maybe the Wi-fi module is the weakest link in this chain?

However, this does not explain why the SD888 itself doesn't fry, maybe it has to do with its built in throttling mechanisms? I don't really game on my phone and the most I do is Spotify and maybe Netflix so I never really pushed it to test if i'd fry the SD888

3- The software bomb is an interesting but imo a very unlikely theory considering the heat signature output its most likely a physical hardware issue. I unfortunately cannot test the hypothesis as I handed in my phone to the MI service center today :( They said they'll let me know in a week so I'll keep y'all updated.

Lastly, I would like to add that this is my first flagship phone, I normally used midrange smartphones but this time I thought I'd get something stronger and to be fair I kind of regret going for this phone specifically because of this issue.

The device itself looks great, runs smoothly, has a fantastic display and the fast charging is out of this world, the fact that I got a free 80W wireless charger too makes it even more spectacular, it is a good phone.

However, this does not excuse the fact that it broke down less than a year from my buying it (I got it last August) and a good phone is as good as the experience it provides and recently, the MIUI 13 barebone update put a bitter taste in my mouth considering how incomplete it is, coupled with this catastrophic hardware failure, I cannot in good conscience recommend that anybody goes for a flagship phone from Xiaomi anytime soon.

Had this been a singular individual error, I could have chalked it down to a manufacturing issue with my particular unit which is excusable, but ever since I posted, I've done some research and a LOT of people have had this issue which means its negligence on Xiaomi's part to conduct a proper QC/QA testing before rolling out their devices and such laziness cannot be excused. Here's hoping I'll get my unit back soon :(
[Xiaomi Mi 11] mpoznic97:
Had the same exact issue last week.. Wifi has been working fine for a year, and then all of a sudden it won't turn on.. Sent it to repair.. Hopefully I get a new device.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] M.Walaa:
Okay, so I got my device back today, they had to change the entire board, the Wi-Fi is now functioning again. It is unfortunate that it broke down in the first place but at least they fixed it rather quickly. Hopefully it wont break down again in a few months time @_@
[Xiaomi Mi 11] hhwjthje:
Let's hope so but I would say that if when it is in idle, cooled and with only wifi turned on and the temps aren't above 34/35C then it should be fine
[Xiaomi Mi 11] marcoshmaciel:
after install the last stable version of xiaomi.eu rom(xiaomi.eu_multi_MI11_V13.0.8.0.SKBCNXM) on my mi 11, Wi-Fi stoped to work after a day and Bluetooth and 4g/5g not working proprielly anymore. I reed about the hight heat of sd888 burning the Wi-Fi modem of mi 11 in Internet. Anyaway, I already buy another smartphone...
[Xiaomi Mi 11] youngniggapreach:
@hhwjthje , a new owner here. Would you please clarify what you meant by bluetooth voice. Couldn't find that on @M.Walaa screenshot and we know he had the fried module. I also don't seem to have a position for bluetooth voice.

Also not sure why you think idle temps matter, when it's clear prolonged load temps is what's causing the damage.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] nawhrid_abir:
Had the same issue. Suddenly the WiFi stopped working after around 10 months of use. I am from Bangladesh and no-one can possibly fix this issue in here. Contacted the seller and they asked me to wait until Chinese borders fully opens. They will send the unit to China. I have been a big Xiaomi fan but the experience I am having with Mi11 is disastrous.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] chithipelam:
Same issue happened with me as well after I have updated MIUI 14 Dev version. But it can be fixed though it is complicated. It needs to do the SOC IC chip reballing. Wifi chip is built in to Snapdragon 888 SOC.

But I think it is a common issue of MI 11 very sad. It happened with me twice . Now I have downgrade to MIUI 13

I am from Bangladesh
[Xiaomi Mi 11] hhwjthje:
Yea, it seems to be a very common issue. But the SoC reballing is because of soldering cracking and losing partial connection with the Wifi and Bluetooth chip which is below the SoC. There is no wifi chip in the SoC, also it's not the wifi chip breaking but the SoC itself.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] chithipelam:
Could you please tell me then what making wifi stop working. I saw a vido on youtube the guy was reballing the SOC and fixed the issue. I gave my phone to an unofficial mobile service center since it doesn't have any warranty. They fixed it it but after couple of hours of use wifi gone.

I want to know exactly what is creating that issue and is there any permanent fix

Thank you
[Xiaomi Mi 11] Sumairebrahim:
Bro im having same problem
[Xiaomi Mi 11] jessie maarat:
Try this before sending to reballing..

Under Settings - Connection and Sharing., Click "Restore NFC Functionality and follow instruction prompt"

Im not sure if this will work to everyone but i did this and it turn on my wifi after restart.,
[Xiaomi Mi 11] Girishp007:
It worked in my 11 ultra, Thank you soo much! I was really worried that I'll have to replace the whole motherboard out of warranty which is very expensive. Thanks again!

Edit: The phone still hangs and turns off after sometime and wifi disappears again
[Xiaomi Mi 11] morilau:
This is a defect in the design of the Xiaomi 11 model motherboard - SOC soldering. I bought my Xiaomi 11 in January 2021, but it burned out in less than six months. I replaced the motherboard once in June, and later in August 2021, the Xiaomi China service department also released a special issue service policy for the Xiaomi 11 series products, Allow free replacement of Xiaomi 11 models with WiFi issues (this policy was cancelled in November 2021 due to the discontinuation of the model and changed to a free motherboard replacement and extended warranty for 36 months). Less than two weeks after the announcement was released, my Xiaomi 11 was indeed unable to open WiFi, so I went to the nearby Xiaomi after-sales service center to replace a new phone, And since then, there have been no issues with WiFi or Bluetooth not being able to open.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] mnbbv:
You're lucky to receive such excellent service from Xiaomi, whereas in other parts of the world, there may not be any viable options available.

In India, Xiaomi has not provided any extended warranty, and the repair costs are exorbitant, amounting to more than 60% of the original price of the phone.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] blackfyre25:
Bro I just started having the same issue with my phone,any updates with your phone? Do you still have to change the motherboard? Like you said it's very expensive to replace in India.
[Xiaomi Mi 11] mo7bq8:
does Wifi works normally after downgrade to MIUI 13?

i'm facing the same issue when I upgrade t o14.0.23.4.25 Dev , wifi in not turning on anymore
[Xiaomi Mi 11] ondris:
Hi guys,

I have this same problem since this past few days.

Unfortunately my phone was cover under warranty until 27 April 2023.

The price for the motherboard change here in France is around 370€...
[Xiaomi Mi 11] NeonHD:
Jeeeez.

And to think I wanted this phone so bad for these past two years. I just bought a Mi 11, but now I think I regret it after hearing these stories...
[Realme GT 2 Pro] stf44:
Hi,

I'm thinking of buying this smartphone but I would like to know if really it supports dual frequency for GPS (L1+L5) and Galileo (E1+E5a).

I'm very surprise that the review of this smartphone on the site Notebookcheck shows a screen capture of the application GPSTest where we see only one frequency for GPS and Galileo.

Can someone who owns this phone do a test with GPSTest and post a screen capture to confirm or not that the smartphone supports L1+L5 and E1+E5a frequencies ?

Thanks in advance ;-))
[Realme GT 2 Pro] pikkapowa:
Looks like it supports L1/L5 + E1/E5aView attachment 5587535
[Realme GT 2 Pro] stf44:
Thank You pikkapowa (y)

Can you just tell me the version of your phone : RMX3301 (Global) or RMX3300 (Asian) ?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] pikkapowa:
Rmx3300
[Realme GT 2 Pro] stf44:
Thank You.

I suppose there is no difference between this two versions in terms of GPS/Galileo...:sneaky:
[Realme GT 2 Pro] mobil89:
Well, there is a difference, unfortunately only the Chinese version (Rmx3300) has dual band GPS, the global version and Europe do not have...

For me it is a big disappointment.

Maybe there is a way to activate the L5 band in Europe and in the global version.

If you know how to activate it in the RMX3301 (Global) version, tell me. I am very interested.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] jgb34220:
I have the RMX3301 (Global) and effectively it doesn't support dual band GPS. Do you have an answer on how to fix this problem? I'm afraid it's a hardware problem... Thanks
[Realme GT 2 Pro] criszz:
Tell me how to check . I have this View attachment 5776505

No idea what that means.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] jgb34220:
These contributions are interesting, it seems to be a software problem of the global version, right? I asked Realme support, I'm waiting for an answer...
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Stano36:
In the second post on the screenshot, know also satellites L5 and E5c.

https://xdaforums.com/t/gps-galilelo-dual-frequency.4431075/#post-86740441

The device specification states:

GPS (L1+L5), GLONASS, BDS, GALILEO, QZSS, NavIC
[Realme GT 2 Pro] jgb34220:
Yes, the contributor has a Chinese model RMX3300 (post 4) but it is unclear if he has a global or local software version
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Stano36:
That's why I asked the user dick_vigarista because he originally had an RMX3300.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Rapper_skull:
I found a way to enable dual band GPS on the global model and will post it soon. The catch is that you need Magisk and/or an unlocked bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy A72] GoldenJet:
Hi I have a Samsung galaxy A72 SM -A725F/DS

When my phone is locked for a while in my pocket the touch screen becomes unresponsive and have to hard reboot after reboot touch screen works perfectly fine.

My phone is not rooted still original firmware

Some help would be much appreciated
[Samsung Galaxy A72] Droidriven:
Go to system settings>display, see if you have a setting called "Accidental Touch Protection" and if it is enabled. That feature could be activating and then freezing the screen when you try to turn it back on.
[Samsung Galaxy A72] GoldenJet:
Hi there thanks for the reply I have tried that and still have the same problem maybe unlocking the phone and reinstall software will help I have an idea it could maybe be software related?
[Samsung Galaxy A72] Droidriven:
Yeah, that would solve any software issues. If there is still a problem after that, maybe hardware damage?
[Samsung Galaxy A72] GoldenJet:
Can't think of hardware damage cause then it will be permanently it only happens sometimes when screen is locked.

Need to know where to download proper and original software?
[Samsung Galaxy A72] Droidriven:
Google search for:

"Return to stock (your specific model number)"

That should find links to firmware, software tools and guides.
[Samsung Galaxy A72] Duygu13:
i have the same problem right now a72 can you tell me how you solved the problem?
[Samsung Galaxy A72] GoldenJet:
My device still have the same problem it is sended to technicians I have an idea the main board is faulty will let you know what was the fix
[Samsung Galaxy A72] DjChrisDaBRAIN:
Hi there! What was the answer or Solution by technicians? Did they solved the problem?
[Samsung Galaxy A72] DjChrisDaBRAIN:
Hi all there! As I see this issue is the same that A52 has. It's a typical factory problem that could be solved charging the main flex. That's the definitive Solution !
[Samsung Galaxy A72] Bigslime96:
I have the same problem with my A72 (A725f)XID

Any solutions

I tried downgrading it didn't help

Changing the screen of flex also doesn't help

So it's a software problem

But any solutions???
[Samsung Galaxy A72] drrastovac:
I have the same problem. It seems that all A72 series are affected by this problem. The flex cable appears to be problematic. Almost every Samsung product I purchased had issues. So, never again Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy A72] GoldenJet:
Sorry for late reply for all questions above. My A72 was not even a year old it was sended to numerous shops from Samsung to the cheap Pakistani shops and it is Un repairable they said that there might Me a chance to repair it if I replace the main board but to find one is very scarce and a new one is almost the price of a new device.

To me personally I will never get a Samsung again my next upgrade will be Huawei,Google pixel or a Xiaomi or anything else I do think that the better devices like Samsung galaxy S22,S21FE and Z fold won't have problems like the A72 or A52 or there was just a big bach of manufacturing that went wrong.

But do let me know if you guys got it fixed in any way maybe I can have a try to fix mine then but to replace part for part and hope that it will be fixed is a expensive route to go.
[Samsung Galaxy A72] Bigslime96:
No just make sure your next samsung is from the European or North /South american market

Then you won't have no issues

I use The A53 & A52s 5G now & i don't have problems
[Samsung Galaxy A72] drrastovac:
I ordered a new main flat cable, and it was supposed to be delivered yesterday, but stupid NordPost in Norway did not deliver it in time. So, I must wait until Monday or Tuesday to get it. Basically, my phone has been opened and lying since Wednesday. I will update you, when I replace the cable. In any case, original main cable in Norway is very inexpensive. It cost me 110 nok or 11 euros.
[Samsung Galaxy A72] drrastovac:
My A72 is from Europe. It seems it doesn't matter where it's from. All A72 models are effected with this problem.
[Samsung Galaxy A72] GoldenJet:
You are lucky it is not expensive here in South Africa every thing is expensive😣 if I take a guess it will be around R400, my phone acted actually weird because it started to have unresponsive screen restarted the device then will work for a few seconds then will have the same problem, sometimes my network signal will totally disappear and there will be two round sircles, sometimes when I charge my device it will show the phone is overheating even though the device was not even on for a while other times it will show the charging port is wet I can't think that the flex cable will cause all that problems
[Samsung Galaxy A72] drrastovac:
Same problem i had when charging. Try this fix
[Samsung Galaxy A72] drrastovac:
I replaced the main flat cable, and so far, my phone is working. I will report again in a few days.
[Samsung Galaxy A72] GoldenJet:
That's great news mate let me know in a few days then I will replace mine
[Samsung Galaxy A72] drrastovac:
I purchased the main cable right here, if anyone needs it. I'm currently waiting on the original back cover tape to make it waterproof once again. It only cost 5 euros, or 50 nok.
[Samsung Galaxy A72] drrastovac:
Just to Infor you that my phone is working without any issues so far. I basically forced it yesterday and all day today, and everything works perfectly.
[Samsung Galaxy A72] drrastovac:
So far, no problems. It's been a few days now.
[Samsung Galaxy A72] Bigslime96:
Still working?
[Samsung Galaxy A72] drrastovac:
Yes, without any problems.

[Samsung Galaxy A72] Bigslime96:

Solution:Change Flex cable
[Samsung Galaxy A72] Unkown.:
flexible cable connecting the upper engine and lower engine ?
[Samsung Galaxy A72] bebongchoi:
To anyone in the future looking at this thread, yes, it does seem like the ultimate solution is to bring your phone to a service shop and ask for a change of the flex cable

(which is the cable that connects the touchscreen with the rest of your phone, as far as I understand it, save you a google search there)

I had to make this reply especially because when I tried to ask them to replace the flex cable specifically, the service shops I went to recommended me that I should replace with a new touchscreen.

DO NOT be persuaded. I was convinced, and replaced my touchscreen, and they kept the old flex cable when making the change.

The unresponsive touchscreen problem came back roughly 3 hours later.

I asked for a flex cable change for real this time, and phone has been functioning normally for a day, as of when I write this reply.

(Please do inform me if the problem comes back for you after you change the flex cable while keeping the old touchscreen though)

I wish I could actually know which service shops are good in my area. I don't mean to blame the shop I replaced my screen, maybe they were unfamiliar with this particular problem with A72 as well.

tldr, ask SPECIFICALLY for a flex cable change, nothing else.
