How to disable a second call on Xiaomi: all the ways (including hidden)

The re-call feature on Xiaomi smartphones is often a source of annoyance: the phone automatically calls back to the subscriber if the first call went unanswered. For some users, this is convenient, but most find such “care” annoying — especially when the re-call is triggered at the most inopportune moment. In this article, we will discuss all possible ways to disable the function, including official MIUI settings, hidden settings and even methods for advanced users through ADB.

It's important to understand that the recalling algorithm depends on the firmware version (MIUI 12/13/14) and the smartphone model. For example, on the Redmi Note 10 Pro, the path to settings may differ from the POCO F5. We'll look at universal solutions, as well as nuances for specific devices. If you've tried to disable the feature through the standard menu, but nothing has worked, don't rush to reset the settings: most likely the problem lies in the hidden parameters of the system.

Before you start making changes, check the MIUI version in Settings → About Phone, which will help you determine which of the proposed methods will work for your device, and note that some methods require root or PC permissions, which we will highlight separately and note the level of difficulty.

1. Standard disconnection via phone settings

The easiest way is to use the built-in MIUI options. However, not all firmware versions have this section open to you. If you don't have an explicit "Repeat Call" item on your menu, try alternative ways:

• 📱 MIUI 12/13: Go to Settings. → Annexes → Phone. → Repeat the call and move the slider to the "Off" position.".
• 🔄 MIUI 14 (HyperOS): The way has changed - look for Settings → Communications and networks → Calls. → Additional settings → Re-call.
• 🔍 For older models (Redmi) 4/5): Sometimes the option is hidden in the settings → System applications → Phone. → Call settings.

If you don't have one on your menu, don't despair: the manufacturer often moves or renames the settings in new firmware versions. Try searching for settings (the magnifier icon in the upper right corner of the screen) and entering "re-call" or "redial".

⚠️ Note: On some models (e.g, POCO X3 Pro) after disabling the function through settings, it may be activated again after the update MIUI. In this case, you will need to re-execute the procedure or use alternative methods from the following sections.

2. Disconnection through settings SIM-map

On some Xiaomi devices, the re-call function is not tied to the phone itself, but to the phone itself. SIM-This is typical of models with Dual support. SIM, where the operator can impose its services, to test this option:

1. Open the Settings. → SIM-maps and mobile networks.
2. Choose an active one SIM-card (if two of them).
3. Scroll down to the "Operator Services" or "Additional settings" section.
4. Look for items like "Callback," "Callback," or "Callback." Turn them off.

If you don’t have these options, try calling your carrier’s short number (e.g. *111# for MTS or *100# for Beeline) and find the “Disable Auto dial” section in the voice menu. Operators sometimes activate this feature by default when you connect a new one. SIM-map.

💡

If you use two of them SIM-Check the recalling settings for each of them separately. Sometimes the function is activated on only one line.

3. Hidden settings through the engineering menu

If the standard methods didn't work, you can try turning off the re-call through the engineering menu, which is suitable for power users, because it requires caution. Wrong actions on the engineering menu can disrupt the phone!

Instructions for most Xiaomi models:

1. Open the Phone app.
2. Enter ##4636## or #8437## (for newer versions of MIUI).
3. Select the Phone Information section (or "Phone Information").
4. Scroll down to the "Call Settings" or "Call Settings" block.
5. Look for Auto Redial or Callback settings and set Disabled.

If the combinations don’t work, try an alternative method:

• 🔧 Install the app MTK Engineering Mode (for devices running a MediaTek processor).
• 📱 For smartphones on Snapdragon suitable Qualcomm EngineerMode.

⚠️ Warning: Do not change other parameters in the engineering menu unless you know their purpose! This can lead to network loss, communication module malfunctions or even the device "bricking.

4.Use of ADB-Teams (for advanced teams)

If all previous methods failed, the ADB option remains, which requires connecting the phone to a computer and basic command-line knowledge, and the advantage of the method is that it works even on locked firmware without root rights.

Step-by-step:

1. Download and install Platform Tools on PC.
2. Turn on the phone to Debug via USB (Settings → About Phone → MIUI version – press 7 times, then go back to Settings → Additional → For Developers).
3. Connect the phone to the PC and in the command line, perform: adb devices Make sure that the device is determined.
4. Enter the command to disable re-call: adb shell settings put global auto_redial_enabled 0
5. Reboot the phone.

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

adb shell am start -n com.android.phone/.settings.CallSettings


adb shell input tap 500 1000 # (coordinates may vary)




adb shell input swipe 500 1500 500 500 # scroll down

These commands simulate on-screen taps to open hidden call settings, and you can find out the exact coordinates through the Touch Coordinates app.

Install Platform Tools on PC| Enable USB debugging on your phone | Connect your phone with the original cable | Check device detection by adb devices | Make a backup of data

5. Disconnection through third-party developers' applications

If you don't want to dig into settings or use ADB, you can use specialized utilities that automate the process and often offer additional features to manage calls.

Top.-3 applications to disable re-call:

When using Tasker, you will need to create a profile with the "Unsuccessful Call" trigger and the "Block Re-Title" action. Detailed instructions can be found on the XDA-Developers forums.

💡

Apps from Google Play may stop working after the MIUI update, check their relevance regularly and read reviews before installing.

6. Radical-methods: resetting settings and firmware

If none of these things work, there are radical measures that should be taken only as a last resort, because they carry the risk of data loss or phone disruption.

Option 1: Resetting phone settings

This will delete all user data, but return call settings to factory values. Before reset, back up via Settings → Google → Backup or Mi Cloud.

Way: Settings → About phone → Reset settings → Erase all data.

Option 2: Fastboot flashing

If the problem is caused by a bug in the current version of MIUI, you can install an older or new firmware manually.

1. Download the official firmware from en.miui.com.
2. Unpack the archive and connect the phone to your PC in Fastboot mode (clip Volume Down + Power when the phone is off).
3. Run the command: fastboot flash all [name file firmware].zip

⚠️ Note: Fastboot flashing deletes all data, including files in internal memory, and can result in bootloader locking if unofficial builds are used.

7.Alternative solutions: operator-level locking

If the second call is activated by the mobile operator (which often happens on MTS, Beeline or Tele2), it can be turned off via the mobile operator. USSD-team-room:

• 📞 MTS: Dial *111*321# and follow the instructions.
• 📱 Beeline: send SMS with the text "0" to 5115.
• 🌐 Tele2: Go to your personal office → "Services" → "Auto dial".
• 💬 Megaphone: dial *105*500# and select "Disable Auto dialer".

If USSD-The commands did not work, contact operator support via chat or call the hotline, specify that you need to disable the "automatic re-call service" (sometimes called "Callback" or "Cover caller").

Note that some carriers may charge you to connect to this service even if you didn't activate it knowingly. Check the details of the last month's bills, there may be charges for "auto-dial."
