How to permanently disable a missed call on Xiaomi: the full guide

Are you tired of bothering reminders of missed calls on your Xiaomi? MIUI's default system includes a re-alert feature that can be annoying - especially if you knowingly missed a call or have already seen a notification.This feature not only duplicates information, but also actively consumes battery power, causing the phone to vibrate or make sounds at regular intervals.

In this article, we will discuss all possible ways to disable re-calling, from standard MIUI settings to hidden developer parameters. The instructions are relevant for all modern models: Redmi Note 12/13, Poco X5/F5, Xiaomi 13/14 and other devices based on MIUI 12-14.

Why is Xiaomi reminding us of missed calls?

The MIUI's Missed Call Re-Alarm feature is part of the notification system, which aims to keep the user from forgetting an important call, but in practice, it often backfires:

🔔 Noise: The phone can vibrate or squeak every 2 to 5 minutes, even if you’ve already seen the notification.
🔋 Battery consumption: Constant activity of the notification module increases energy consumption by 3–7% per day.
📱 Screen clutter: duplicates accumulate in the notification curtain, which have to be cleaned manually.

In earlier versions of MIUI (up to 12th), this feature could be turned off in two clicks. Now the way is more complicated - the manufacturer hid the settings deeper, and in some regional firmware (for example, for Europe), the option is not in the interface at all.

📊 How often do you get annoyed by repeated call notifications?

Constantly.

Sometimes.

Nearby

Never.

Method 1: Disconnecting through notification settings

The most obvious method is to use the standard notification menu, which works on most Xiaomi devices with MIUI 12-14, but may not be available on custom firmware or in some regional builds.

Instructions:

Open the Settings app (cog icon).
Go to Notifications and Status bar → Notification management.
In the list of applications, find the Phone (or Calls) and tap it.
Scroll down to the missed calls block.
Turn off the Repeat Notifications (or Missed Notice) switch.

If you don't have a Repeat Notification, don't despair. Some firmware has a different name or no name at all. Go to the next one.

💡

On some models (e.g. Poco F4), the option is called Reminder of Unanswered and is located in the submenu Additional.

Method 2: Use the "Do Not Disturb" mode

If standard settings didn't work, you can go a detour, set up Do Not Disturb (DND) mode to block repeated call notifications, which doesn't shut down the function completely, but makes it invisible.

How to set up:

Go to Settings → Sounds and vibration → Do not disturb.
Activate the mode, then press the Schedule.
Select Set up rules → Add a rule.
Specify rule type: Notifications from applications.
In the list, select the Phone and tick Missed Calls.
In the settings, set the rules without sound and without vibration.

⚠️ Note: This method hides all missed call notifications, including the first alerts. If you need to receive at least one notification, use the following method.

Method 3: Hidden settings with ## code

MIUI has hidden engineering menus that allow you to fine-tune the behavior of the system, one of which is responsible for notifying you of calls.

Open the Phone app.
Enter the combination: ##6484### (or ##MIUI### on some models).
Select Notification Test → Missed Call Settings.
Turn off the Repeat Notification (or Persistent Alert) option.

If the code doesn’t work, try an alternative:

##4636## → Usage Statistics → App Stats → Phone → Clear Notifications

⚠️ Note: Engineering menus may vary depending on model and version MIUI. Do not change other settings in these sections – this can cause malfunctions in the phone.

What if the code doesn't work?

If neither combination opens the menu, your firmware is blocking the engineering codes, and then only root access or the root access will help. ADB-commands (see Method 5).

Method 4: Disconnect via ADB (for advanced users)

If previous methods have failed, the most reliable, but also the most difficult, method is to use ADB (Android Debug Bridge), which requires connecting the phone to a computer and executing commands through the terminal.

Step-by-step:

Activate Developer Mode: Go to Settings → About Phone and tap the MIUI version 7 times.
Return to Settings → Additional → For developers and enable USB debugging.
Connect your phone to your PC, install it. ADB-Drivers and open the command line.
Run the command to check the connection: adb devices (should appear serial number of your device).
Enter the command to disable repeated notifications: adb shell settings put global missed_call_notification_light 0 adb shell settings put global missed_call_notification_vibrate 0 adb shell settings put global missed_call_notification_repeat 0

After you execute the commands, restart your phone. If the notifications keep appearing, try the additional command:

adb shell pm clear com.android.phone

☑️ Preparation for ADB-team

Install ADB driversEnable debugging over USBConnect the phone to the PCCheck the connection of the adb device team

Done: 0 / 4

Method 5: Using Third-Party Applications

If you don’t want to dig into settings or use ADB, you can use third-party utilities, such as MacroDroid, which allows you to create rules to block notifications from specific applications.

How to set up:

Install MacroDroid from Google Play.
Create a new macro command with a trigger Notice received.
As a condition, select the Phone app and the notification text (e.g., Missed Call).
Add the action Cancel Notification.
Save the macro and activate it.

The advantage of this method is flexibility, and you can set the rules so that only repeated notifications are blocked, and the first alerts remain.

Frequent problems and their solutions

Even after disabling repeated notifications, Xiaomi users sometimes face a return of the feature, and here are the most common reasons and ways to eliminate them:

🔄 Resetting settings: After the update MIUI Some settings are reset. Check the notification settings again.
📲 Duplicate apps: If you have two dialers installed (like the standard one and Google Phone), notifications may come from both.
🔧 Cache Error: Clear the Phone app cache in Settings → Annexes → Application management.
📡 Regional restrictions: On some firmware for Europe (EEA) The option is disabled by default. Try changing the region in the settings.

If none of these methods worked, the last option is to reset your phone to factory settings. Make sure to back up your data before doing so!

On devices with MIUI 14 and later, the re-notification function can be linked to Xiaomi Cloud services.

Updates often reset user settings. Repeat the steps from Method 1 or Method 3. If it doesn't work, clear the phone application data (settings → applications → storage → clear the data).

Will these methods work on POCO or Black Shark?

Yes, because POCO and Black Shark use the same MIUI framework, but with a different launcher, all of the methods described are relevant, except for rare custom firmware.

Can you just turn off the vibration but leave an audible notification?

Yeah, go to the settings. → Sounds and vibrations → Vibration and turn off vibration for notifications. ADB-Adb shell settings put global missed_call_notification_vibrate 0 The sound will remain.

Why did all the missed log calls disappear after the notifications were turned off?

It's a bug of some versions. MIUI. Try to return calls with the command: adb shell content query --uri content://call_log/calls If it doesn’t help, restore the log from Xiaomi Cloud backup or Google account.
