Xiaomi confirms fix for dynamic photo flip bug in upcoming update

Recently, Xiaomi has officially confirmed a new bug fix that is set to be released with a future system update, alongside the fixing of a visual bug spotted by customers on the new Xiaomi Civi 5 Pro. The problem, according to the customer feedback platform available on the company’s website, relates to the Dynamic Photos feature, leading to an unexpected reversal of the image from left to right during viewing. The fact that the company has continued to emphasize the stability of their software on the Xiaomi HyperOS platform, including the mid-range offerings, is an important aspect of the company’s performance at the current mid-term.

Confirmed Problem in Xiaomi Civi 5 Pro

The issue was found on the Xiaomi Civi 5 Pro with the software version of OS3.0.3.0, and the problem is that the Dynamic Photos might turn horizontally when browsing, even if the original image was taken normally. This problem is seen to occur very often without any particular trigger. Xiaomi has recognized the bug with proposal number 51733572 and stated that it is being addressed by the software team.

Such a bug will neither influence the photo quality nor will it have any effect on the integrity of data, though it may affect the user experience, particularly when users use Dynamic Photos extensively to record short moments with motion. Xiaomi’s acknowledgement of this bug indicates that it has been reproduced within the company, which is considered a system-level inconsistency rather than a hardware problem.

The Planned Solution and Update Process

Xiaomi mentioned that this bug will be solved in a future system update. Although it’s difficult to mention the time frame for the release of this update, bug fixes such as this are normally released through the incremental Xiaomi HyperOS software updates, which are usually pushed out in batches once it’s ready. The update will then be available for download through the system updater.

For those who want their system applications and components to be updated to their latest versions, some Xiaomi system apps regarding camera support as well as media service applications can also be traced through HyperOSUpdates.com or using the MemeOS Enhancer App from Google Play Store. The app enables connections to system app updates, hidden functions in Xiaomi Androids, as well as tracking updates from theandroid itself.

Xiaomi’s Software Maintenance PROCESS

This is typical of the software maintenance approach at Xiaomi, where the company focuses on the swift acknowledgment of feedback bugs. Xiaomi’s goal to provide a consistent user experience across all devices seems to include the elimination of bugs such as the inversion of the Dynamic Photo feature.

It’s likely that as the Xiaomi HyperOS finds applications on an increasing number of models and in different parts of the globe, bug fixes and optimization tweaks will continue to be rolled out to ensure that the focus on long-term software support by Xiaomi is maintained.
