If you do not want to dig into the technical details, start with the first two methods - they are the simplest and do not require root rights.

Why Xiaomi does not allow you to turn off the charging sound through the settings?

The manufacturer deliberately limits the ability to turn off system sounds in MIUI, arguing this with user experience.

But for most users, this sound is a source of discomfort, especially when charging is frequently connected/disabled, and fortunately, the restriction can be circumvented — and we'll show you how to do it safely.

Method 1: Disconnect via “Do Not Disturb” (no root)

The easiest method is to use the built-in Do Not Disturb (DND) mode, which blocks all system sounds, including the charging notification, but has a limitation: the sound will return as soon as you turn off the mode.

How to set up:

1. Open Settings → Sound and vibration → Do not disturb.
2. Activate the switch to turn on automatically.
3. Select Schedule and set the time you want to turn off the sounds (for example, from 23:00 to 7:00).
4. In the Exceptions section, uncheck all ticks except Alarm and Media (optional).

⚠️ Warning: This method will turn off all system sounds and notifications during the selected period, including calls and SMS. If you need to leave important alerts, move on to the following method.

Method 3: Disabling audio via ADB (for power users)

If previous methods didn’t work, you can use Android Debug Bridge (ADB), a deep-tuning tool that requires a PC connection, but doesn’t need root rights.

What you need:

• 🖥️ Computer with ADB-tools installed.
• 📱 Included Debugging by USB Xiaomi Mi 10T (In Settings → The phone. → Version. MIUI Press 7 times, then return to Additional → For developers).

Instructions:

1. Connect the phone to the PC and confirm the debugging permission.
2. Open the command prompt (Windows) or terminal (macOS/Linux) in the folder with ADB.

1. Install a file manager with root support (such as Root Explorer or Solid Explorer).

🔹 Alternative: Instead of deleting, you can replace the sound with an empty file (create silence in any audio editor lasting 1 second and save it in.ogg format).

⚠️ Warning: Changing system files may cause updates to fail MIUI. Before you do this, create a backup copy through TWRP Or Mi Flash Tool.

Method 5: Use of third-party applications (with limitations)

There are apps on Google Play that promise to turn off the charging sound, but most of them either don't work on newer versions of MIUI or require root.

🔹 Bottom Line: Third-party apps are ineffective without root rights. If you're not ready for technical manipulation, use Method 1 or 2.

On the Xiaomi Mi 10T with MIUI 14, it is almost impossible to turn off the charging sound without ADB or root due to the manufacturer’s limitations.
