How to completely disable the callback (vibroreklik) on Xiaomi: 5 proven ways

Touching the screen is a feature that is not popular with all Xiaomi smartphone owners. haptic feedback can be annoying in its intensity, especially on low-end Redmi or POCO models, where the vibrating motor is often poorly calibrated. But the problem is not only subjective: constant microvibration increases battery consumption by 3-7% and can lead to premature wear and tear of the mechanism.

In this article, we’ll look at all the ways you can disable the talkback, from standard MIUI settings to hidden settings for power users. It’s important to understand that across models (Xiaomi 13 Pro, Redmi Note 12, POCO F5) and firmware versions (MIUI 14, HyperOS), menu items may be different, and we’ve taken these nuances into account and prepared generic instructions that work on 95% of the brand’s devices.

1. Standard shutdown via MIUI settings

The most obvious and safe way to do this is to use the built-in options, which are suitable for most modern Xiaomi smartphones, including the 2022-2026 models, with the main advantage of not requiring superuser rights and not affecting warranty.

Instructions:

  • πŸ“± Open the Settings app** (cog icon)
  • πŸ” Go to the section Sound and vibration
  • 🎚️ Find the item β€œVibration on touch”** (or Tactile feedback)

Some devices (such as Xiaomi 12T or POCO X5 Pro) may have an additional Vibration option when dialing – it should also be turned off if you want to completely remove the keyboard talk. Note that on MIUI 15 (HyperOS), the path may be slightly different: Settings β†’ Display β†’ Tactile feedback.

2. Disconnection through special features settings

If the standard method didn’t work or you want to turn off vibration for specific actions (e.g., system notifications only), try this method.It is especially useful for users with MIUI 13 and below, where the vibration settings interface is less flexible.

Sequence of action:

  1. Go to the settings β†’ Special opportunities
  2. Choosing Physical Opportunities β†’ Vibration.
  3. Disable the points: πŸ“³ Vibration on touch (basic pushback) πŸ”” Vibration on notifications βš™οΈ Vibration of system sounds

One important caveat: some firmware (e.g. MIUI 14 Global) may have a Vibration Intensity option here, so if you don't want to shut down the talkback completely, just reduce the power, set the slider to a minimum, and that saves battery power without completely abandoning tactile feedback.

3.Use of Do Not Disturb mode for selective shutdown

If you only need to turn off the talkback at certain times (e.g. at night or at work), it is convenient to use the Do Not Disturb (DND) feature, which does not turn off the vibration completely, but allows you to flexibly manage its operation on a schedule.

How to set up:

  • πŸ•’ Go to Settings. β†’ Notifications and status bar β†’ Don't disturb.
  • πŸ”„ Activate the mode and click Setting up the rules
  • πŸ“› Choose Sounds and Vibrations β†’ Vibration.
  • ❌ Set the switch in the "Disable" positionΒ»**
  • ⏰ Set up a schedule or activation for an event (for example, when connecting to the Wi-Fi network "Work")

The advantage of this is that it doesn't require manual switching on/off, for example, you can set up automatic shutdowns between 22:00 and 7:00 or when the phone is connected to charging. On the POCO F4 GT and other gaming smartphones, this method is particularly useful β€” the vibration is turned off during games, but remains active in normal mode.

What if the DND mode does not turn off the vibration?
On some firmware (especially custom ones), Do Not Disturb mode may ignore vibration settings. In this case, try: 1. Set priority notifications manually 2. Use third-party apps like MacroDroid to automatically turn off vibration on schedule 3. Update the firmware to the latest stable version

4. Disconnection via ADB (for power users)

If standard methods have not worked or you want to completely remove the system files responsible for vibration response, you can use the ADB debugging bridge. This method requires connecting the phone to the computer and basic command line knowledge.

Step-by-step:

  1. πŸ’» Install. ADB Tools on PC
  2. πŸ”Œ Connect your phone to your computer and turn on Debugging. USB (Settings β†’ The phone. β†’ Version. MIUI β†’ 7 times press to unlock the developer mode, then Settings β†’ Additionally. β†’ For developers)
  3. πŸ–₯️ Open the command line in the folder with ADB Enter: adb shell settings put global haptic_feedback_enabled 0 adb shell settings put global vibration_intensity 0
  4. πŸ”„ Reset the device

To completely shut down vibrations (including notifications), add the command:

adb shell settings put global notification_vibration_enabled 0

⚠️ Attention: Misuse of the right ADB Before executing commands, back up important data. On some models (Xiaomi 13 Ultra, Black Shark 5 Pro) after such changes, you may need to reset your settings.

5 Manual deletion of system files (root only)

The most radical method is the physical deletion of the files responsible for the vibration response, which requires super-user rights (root) and is only suitable for experienced users, and improper actions can lead to loss of warranty and inoperability of the device.

What files are responsible for the talkback:

The path to the fileAppointmentModels where you meet
/system/vendor/overlay/HapticFeedbackOverlay.apkThe main module of tactile feedbackXiaomi 11/12/13, POCO F3/F4
/system/priv-app/MiuiSystemUI/MiuiSystemUI.apkIntegration of vibration into system interfaceAll devices on MIUI
/system/etc/permissions/android.hardware.vibrator.xmlConfiguration of hardware vibrationRedmi Note 10/11, POCO X3
/vendor/etc/vibrator_calibration.jsonCalibration of the vibration motorBlack Shark 4/5, gaming devices

For removal:

  1. Install a file manager with root support (such as Root Explorer)
  2. Find the files and rename them (add the.bak extension)
  3. Clear the cache in Settings β†’ Memory β†’ Clear the cache
  4. Reset the device

⚠️ Note: On devices with Dynamic RAM Expansion (e.g. Xiaomi) 12S Ultra) system removal APK-The files can cause errors in the virtual memory. Before experimenting, check the compatibility of your model in the forums. 4PDA or XDA Developers.

πŸ’‘

If after deleting the files, the phone stopped vibrating when calling, restore the file android.hardware.vibrator.xml - it is responsible for the basic functionality of the vibration motor.

6. Third-party applications for vibration control

If you don't want to go through the settings or use ADB, you can use specialized utilities that allow you to flexibly adjust the vibration intensity or turn it off completely for individual applications.

Top.-3 talkback:

  • πŸ› οΈ Vibration Tuner – allows you to adjust the vibration force for different types of touches (short/long press, swipes)
  • πŸ”‡ Disable Haptic Feedback – Disables Rootless Talback (Works through Accessibility Service)
  • πŸŽ›οΈ MacroDroid – Creates automatic rules to turn off vibrations by time/place/application

Important: Disable Haptic Feedback applications work through a special feature service, which can increase battery consumption by 5-10%. For maximum efficiency, use them together with setting Battery Optimization in the Settings β†’ Applications menu.

On the POCO X5 Pro and other devices with MIUI 14, the Vibration Tuner application may require additional permissions to activate it:

  1. Go to Settings β†’ Applications β†’ Application Management β†’ Vibration Tuner
  2. Select Additional β†’ Special access
  3. Activate the switch Change system settings

Comparison of methods: which one to choose?

For most Xiaomi owners, the best solution is a combination of standard settings and Do Not Disturb mode. If you need to completely remove the talkback without compromise, use it. ADB-commands are safer than deleting system files and do not require root rights.

On HyperOS devices (such as Xiaomi 14), standard methods of disabling the talkback may not work due to the changed system architecture, in which case the most reliable option is to use ADB or third-party applications.
