How to turn on auto dial on Xiaomi Mi 10: all ways + problem solving

The auto dial feature on the Xiaomi Mi 10 allows you to automatically re-dial if you are busy or not responding, especially for business users, taxi drivers or those who often call high-load hotlines. However, in standard MIUI firmware, this option is hidden deep in the settings - or not at all in some regional versions.

In this article, you will find 3 working ways to activate auto dial (including hidden menus and third-party applications), a compatibility table with MIUI versions, as well as solutions for typical errors - from dialing failures to conflicts with dual SIM. All instructions are tested on the Xiaomi Mi 10 (models M2001J2E, M2001J2G), but are suitable for other flagships of the series (Mi 10 Pro, Mi 10 Ultra).

1. Standard method: through phone settings

Go to the Calls section. → Additional (or Additional settings).
Find the Auto Repeat or Auto dial and activate the slider.

If AutoDial is missing, try the hidden code to call the engineering menu:

From the menu that opens, select Phone Information → Test Menu and search for call options, but this method does not work on all versions of MIUI.

2. via the Contacts app (alternative path)

If the standard method didn’t work, try turning on auto dialing via Contacts, a method that often works on firmware with limited call settings:

Why is the auto dial not working through third-party apps?

Most often, the problem is with MIUI restrictions on background activity. Xiaomi aggressively closes apps in the background to save battery. Solution: 1. Add the app to Autorun (Settings → Applications → Application Management → [Application] → Autorun). 2. Turn off Adaptive Brightness in battery settings (it can block background processes). 3. Reboot the phone after installing the app.

❓ Why the auto dialer only works 3 times and then stops?

This is a limitation of the mobile operator: most Russian providers (MTS, Beeline, Tele2) block auto-replay after 3-5 attempts to prevent spam. Solution: use third-party applications with interval randomization (for example, Auto Redial with random delay setting).

❓ Can I set up an auto dial only for specific contacts?

Yes, but not through the standard MIUI settings. Install the Call Repeater app and create a whitelist of numbers in it. Alternatively, in Google Contacts, add a tag to the contact name (e.g., #auto-call) and set up automation via Tasker.

Updates often reset hidden settings. Try: Reset the Phone app settings** (Settings → Apps → Phone → Storage → Clear Data). Install the old version of Dialer via APK. Return to the previous version of MIUI via Mi Flash Tool (unlocked bootloader required).
