Xiaomi Redmi 2: Problems and Solutions

The Redmi 2 is a great intermediate device, with good specifications and attractive cost / benefit ratio. However, no smartphone is immune from problems. As users acquire and upgrade the device, new reports about bugs and errors start appearing over the internet. To do this, we have selected the most common problems present on the device and their respective solutions. Check out the details in the article below.

Notification LED Does Not Illuminate While Receiving Calls

Some users may notice different behavior on the Redmi 2 notification LED. Typically, the LED will illuminate when a new message arrives at the device or to signal the user about pending notifications on the notification bar. However, this behavior is not reflected when Redmi 2 is receiving a call, for example, as the LED remains off.

Solution: This is a common MIUI behavior, which was enhanced with the arrival of the latest update (6.6.6.0) distributed to the national version of Redmi 2 on Tuesday (22/03). That update has enabled the notification LED while receiving calls. Make sure your device is updated to the latest version of MIUI. Follow the steps below to enable the LED: Settings> Call Settings> Incoming Call Settings and activate the key "flashing LED during touch"

<h2 id=Swiftkey typing delay

Swiftkey comes installed and set as the default Redmi 2 keyboard. However, some users are noticing a slight delay in displaying the content entered through that keyboard. This issue may be related to overloaded RAM or even Swiftwey incompatibility with the application that is running.

Solution: You can change the default Redmi 2 keyboard and use the Google Keyboard, so you don't have to download any other additional applications. Google Keyboard is already installed on Redmi 2, you will need to go to the language settings and select the new input method. To do this, follow these steps: System Settings> Additional Settings> Language & Input> Default and select "Google keyboard"

<h2 id=low footage audio

Many users are noticing a difference between the reproduction of call audio and the sound captured through the Redmi 2 camcorder. Reports claim that call audio is better when put into hands-free mode, while the sound is captured during filming slightly down.

Solution: You can change the recording quality by switching from HD (1280 x 720 pixels) to FullHD (1920 x 1080 pixels). The SD option records lower quality videos (720 x 480 pixels – widescreen), so the audio captured under these conditions will be slightly low. V at as System Settings> Camera> Video Quality and select "Fullhd"
