Whenever there are rumors of a new update, whether it is related to the operating system or simply to new features related to the Android interface, users are in a rush to update and sometimes they find themselves with a smartphone that works worse. before.
This is not the case with MIUI 12.5, because as much as users have longed to receive the new update quickly, the brand has certainly not pushed the accelerator. But despite this, some unfortunate users found themselves cursing the coveted update. This time, however, performance, autonomy or other bugs that can undermine the usability of the smartphone in everyday life have nothing to do with it, but rather something else that no one would have ever expected.
In particular we are talking about the MIUI 12.5 just received on the Redmi Note 8 Pro terminals, which also brought the latest major Android 11 release as a dowry. All is well, except that this update has completely eliminated the MIUI Updater, from which the OTA updates and therefore this possibility is also eliminated with it.
If your smartphone is a Redmi Note 8 Pro, wait before updating to MIUI 12.5
The image above speaks for itself: they enter the settings of Redmi Note 8 Pro in the updates section, the MIUI Updater no longer appears but rather the Google update program which certainly does not match the MIUI OTAs.
This has caused quite a few controversies, also because it is not said that users who own Redmi Note 8 Pro will be able to carry out a next update or restore the previous ROM with a manual flash, indeed to be honest I am not required to do it and know it to do. It is clear that we can define the story as a bug of MIUI 12.5 for Redmi Note 8 Pro, also because at the moment it is the only device to complain of such a problem.
We hope that Xiaomi will clarify the situation as soon as possible, explaining the reason for this change, if this was actually wanted in this sense, or that it will give a solution to all users, who probably if not able to operate on the ROM, will have to bring your device in assistance, naturally for free.
unfortunately I have already made the update… ..what happens now? what does it entail? thank you
what did you update 12.5 to?
