Xiaomi has started rolling out MIUI v6.5.5.0 upadte for the recently launched Xiaomi Mi 4i. The latest update has been released to fix the heating problems some users have been facing.
Xiaomi had earlier released the MIUI V6.5.4.0 LXIMICD update to the Mi 4i with an aim to solve overheating issue but it caused firmware issue, thus forcing the Chinese smartphone makers to suspend the OTA update. The update is being rolled out over the air, and is expected to reach all Mi 4i units later this week.
“We’ve heard from some Mi 4i users that their devices can get warm under more strenuous conditions such as complex 3D gaming for extended periods of time. To address these concerns, we’ve optimized our thermal control algorithms to better regulate the temperature. The new thermal controls adjust frequency, voltage and the number of cores in use depending on the chipset temperature.”
posted Xiaomi Global Vice President Hugo Barra in a Facebook post.
