Auto dialing on the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro is a useful feature that automatically repeats dialing when a subscriber is busy or not responding. This saves time, especially when you need to urgently call a colleague, support team or relatives. However, in standard MIUI firmware, this option is often hidden or absent from the phone menu. In this article, we will discuss all the working ways of setting up an auto dialer, from built-in tools to third-party applications.
It's important to understand that auto dialing capabilities vary with MIUI and regional firmware. For example, global ROMs may be limited, whereas Chinese ROMs or custom firmware can be accessed out of the box. We tested all methods on Redmi Note 9 Pro with MIUI 12-14 and Android 10-12, which are relevant for these versions.
If you have previously tried to set up auto dialing through the standard Phone application and did not find such an option, do not rush to install third-party programs. First check the hidden settings - they often solve the problem without additional software.
1. Check the built-in auto dial function in MIUI
In some versions of MIUI, the auto dial is hidden in the menu to find it:
- Open the Phone app (the tube icon on the home screen).
- Click on the three dots in the top right corner and select Settings.
- Go to the Calls section β Additional settings.
- Look for Auto Repeat, Auto dial or Repeat dial (the name may vary).
If you donβt have this option, try an alternative route:
- π± Type the code: enter the combination ##4636## in the Phone app, then select Phone Information and check for AutoCall in the menu.
- π Search by settings: open Settings β Search (a magnifier at the top) and type in "auto-dialer." Sometimes the function is hidden under non-obvious names.
β οΈ Note: Redmi Note 9 Pro with global firmware (e.g, MIUI Global 12.5) is often missing built-in auto dialer. In this case, move on to the following methods.
2. setting up an auto dial through USSD-code
Telecom operators (MTS, Beeline, Tele2, MegaFon) sometimes support auto dialing at the network level, which works even if the phone does not have such a feature. USSD-team:
| Operator. | Team to turn on | Command to shut down |
|---|---|---|
| MTS | *111*44*1# | *111*44*0# |
| Beeline | *110*441# | *110*440# |
| MegaFon | *105*441# | *105*440# |
| Tele2. | *155*44*1# | *155*44*0# |
Once activated, the auto dialer will work for all outgoing calls, the number of attempts and the interval between them will be set by the operator (usually 3-5 attempts with a pause of 30-60 seconds).
β οΈ Note: The service may be paid (for example, MTS β ~3 rubles / day. Before activation, check the rates on the operator's website or on the number 0890 (MTS), 0611 (Beeline), etc.
If USSD-The teams didn't work, so check if your data plan supports this option, for example, on some corporate rates, the auto dialer is disabled by default.
3. Use of third-party applications
If the built-in methods didn't work, install a dedicated app. We tested 5 popular programs - the best options for the Redmi Note 9 Pro:
- π² Auto Redial (Play Market) is a simple interface, setting the number of attempts and intervals. MIUI rootless.
- π Redial β supports a blacklist of numbers for which an auto dial is not required.
- π οΈ Tasker is for advanced users, and allows you to create an automatic dial-up script with triggers (for example, by time or when a line is busy).
Instructions for Auto Redial:
- Download the app from the Play Market.
- Open it and provide permissions to call (Settings β Applications β Auto Redial β Permissions).
- Install the main menu: π’ Number of attempts: 5-10; β±οΈ Interval: 20-40 seconds; π Auto dial number (or leave blank for all calls).
Activate the service with the Start button.

Applications like Auto Redial consume an extra battery because they run in the background, to reduce the charge consumption:
- π Disable the auto call after a successful connection.
- β‘ Reduce the number of attempts to 3-5.
- π΄ Add the app to the battery optimization exception list (Settings) β Battery β Optimizing the battery).
4. Customization through the engineering menu (for advanced)
On the Redmi Note 9 Pro with MIUI 12.5+ firmware, you can turn on a hidden auto dialer via the engineering menu, but this requires caution - incorrect changes can disrupt the phone.
Instructions:
- Open the Phone app and enter the code ##4636##.
- Select Phone Information (or Phone Information).
- Scroll down to the Set Auto Redial section (if it doesn't, the method isn't right for your firmware).
- Set the settings: Auto Redial Count: number of attempts (e.g. 5); Auto Redial Interval: interval in seconds (e.g. 30).
Save the settings and restart the phone.
β οΈ Warning: Changes to the engineering menu can cause communication failures. If the network signal is lost after setting up, reset the phone to factory settings (Settings) β The phone. β Resetting settings).
What if the mobile Internet disappeared after changing the engineering menu?
This method does not work on all versions of MIUI. If the Set Auto Redial partition is missing, try updating the firmware or using alternative methods.
5 Autocall via Google Assistant
If you have Google Assistant installed, you can set it up to automatically re-typing, which doesn't require root permissions and works on any version of MIUI.
Instructions:
- Activate Google Assistant: Press the Home button or say OK, Google.
- Tell the team: Remind me to call back [contact name] in 1 minute if I don't get a call.
- After a bad call, Assistant will offer to try again.
The downside to this is that it's dependent on the Internet and Google services, and if it's offline, the Assistant doesn't work.
π‘
To make Google Assistant respond to the command faster, add its widget to the home screen. To do this, press the empty space on the screen β Widgets β find Google and drag the Assistant widget.
Alternative solutions: SIM-dial-up
Some operators are releasing SIM-cards with pre-installed services, including auto dialing:
- πΆ MTS "Super-SIM" - includes free auto dial for 5 attempts.
- π Tele2 βAll inclusiveβ β auto-repeat is included in the package of services.
On global versions of MIUI built-in auto dialer is often absent - in this case, without applications can not do.
