Xiaomi suspends HyperOS updates over black screen bug

Xiaomi has acknowledged recent black screen problems affecting their Xiaomi 12T smartphone lineup. In response, the company has issued an official bug report and temporarily halted specific HyperOS firmware releases to prevent further complications for users. This approach aligns with Xiaomi’s ongoing commitment to product quality and customer satisfaction.

Suspended Firmware Versions

The following HyperOS updates have been suspended:

OS2.0.5.0.VLQIDXM – Partial release paused
OS2.0.7.0.VLQMIXM – Partial release paused

Both updates were initially distributed to a limited user base before Xiaomi decided to suspend them pending further investigation.

Investigation & Preliminary Findings

Xiaomi’s technical team has traced several incidents of the black screen issue to devices that underwent unofficial screen replacements. These findings suggest a possible link between unauthorized hardware modifications and the malfunction. At least two affected units were confirmed to have had such modifications, while a third case remains under review for verification.

The engineering team is currently conducting a thorough analysis to determine if there is a direct correlation between the unauthorized repairs and the display problems. This careful review is aimed at ensuring accurate root cause identification and effective resolution.

Next Steps & Support

Xiaomi is actively working on targeted solutions and has enhanced its diagnostic protocols to better address the issue. Customers experiencing similar problems are encouraged to contact official Xiaomi support channels for personalized assistance.

For users seeking verified system updates, Xiaomi recommends downloading firmware only from trusted sources such as HyperOSUpdates.com. Additionally, the MemeOS Enhancer app, available on the Play Store, offers further system optimization features and access to select Xiaomi functionalities.
