Redmi Note 8T with /e 1.81 reboots several times per day

[Goldtop_57]

Hi dear people!

I am running my Redmi Note 8T since more than a year on /e 1.81, and mostly it functioned well enough.

Since about two weeks, the phone reboots several times per day, without any cue, just in the middle of anything, day- or nighttime, in use or not. No pattern.

Any ideas?

Furthermore, the updater doesn’t show me newer versions of /e - I know there are more, but how can I get them onto my phone? And why is there no automatic update anymore?

Thank you in advance for your input.

Have a nice weekend!

[HOWTO] Give complete /e/OS version info easily for support, answers, comparison etc

If you read just the start of this text because it gets cited in the forum: There are screenshots here, please have a look at them before assuming you know what this is about. Thank you! As they say, every hint has its history . Where were we? Ah, yes … You are running /e/OS on your device and want to give info about your version to get support, or a simple answer to a question, or anybody else to confirm whether they can observe the same behaviour you observe? Sure … Your device will …

Perhaps you got stuck on Andriod 10 ?

I’ve just successfully performed an OTA update from e-1.2-r to e-1.11-r on the Xiaomi Redmi Note 8T (willow).

By the way, all missing OTA updates from V1.3 up to and including V1.11 were displayed in the updater.

BTW: The Xiaomi firmware as well as the device codenames are different for the Redmi Note 8 (ginko) and Redmi Note 8T (willow).

The bug was gone after a finally successful upgrade to Android 11 via Orangefox (TWRP didn’t work). Also, the phone doesn’t need several tries to wake up by pressing the ON-button again and again, also the double-tap on the screen works again as should be.
