Xiaomi has released the Android 15-based HyperOS 2 update to global users. The rollout started with the Xiaomi 14, with other models expected to get the upgrade soon. However, there are a few reports about issues experienced by early adopters, and we think you should know about these bugs before installing the update.
Xiaomi’s Android 15-based HyperOS 2 update started rolling out recently to global units. It’s the first cross-section Android upgrade for many phones, and as usual, some system apps are yet to adapt to the new OS. This causes glitches and bugs, which might result in overheating and consequently, faster battery drain. Meanwhile, there have been a few reports about battery drain issues, but there’s an issue with the Fonts.
We hope to update this Xiaomi Android 15-based HyperOS 2 bug tracker with all the issues reported by users after installing the update. So far, only a few people have installed the update, meaning there are limited issues. Nevertheless, we think you should know about them, as it might affect your experience with your phone. Also, there seems to be a workaround to the problems.
All the reported Android 15-based HyperOS 2 bug
The update has only arrived for a limited number of Xiaomi 14 users. While some people have reported battery drain, it’s mostly normal with new upgrades, as the device will need time to adapt. Meanwhile, widely reported is the Font displaying incorrectly. It seems exclusive to those running Android 15-based HyperOS 1, but there’s a chance you will have the same problem after upgrading to Android 15 with HyperOS 2.
We recommend backing up your data before installing the update in case you need a hard reset to resolve any potential issues after the upgrade. But if the problem is with the Fonts, follow the procedure below to fix it, while you wait for a subsequent update that will resolve it permanently.
How to resolve Fonts not displaying correctly in Android 15 on Xiaomi phones
