FAQ: Frequent questions about Xiaomi error reports

Can I turn off error reports without root rights?
Yes, most of the methods in this article (except ADB) do not require root access, but some firmware (HyperOS or the Chinese version of MIUI) may need to unlock the bootloader to completely shut down.
Why do errors appear more often after MIUI updates?
This is a typical problem when switching to a new firmware version. Xiaomi developers often change the reporting mechanisms, which leads to false positives. The solution is to wait for a patch (usually released within 1-2 weeks) or roll back to the previous version.
Is it safe to turn off error reports?
Yes, this doesn't affect system stability. However, without reports, Xiaomi won't receive crash data, which can slow down bug fixes in future updates. If you're participating in MIUI beta, it's best to leave reports on.
How to remove the error report on POCO F5 with HyperOS?
On HyperOS, the path to settings has changed: Settings โ†’ About Phone โ†’ HyperOS Version โ†’ Tap 7 times โ†’ Return โ†’ Additional โ†’ Special Features โ†’ Error Reports. If you donโ€™t have an option, use ADB (see Method 4).
Could the error report be a virus?
No, the report window itself is a system component of MIUI. However, if an error appears when you open a particular site or application, it may be that your device is infected by Advar.
