Smartphone giant Xiaomi has resumed the global rollout of the highly anticipated HyperOS 3 update for the Xiaomi 13T Pro and Poco F5. For the Xiaomi 13T Pro, this is a revised launch; the initial update released six weeks ago was abruptly pulled after reports of random reboots and critical bootloop errors that left devices unusable.
Revised HyperOS 3 Builds for Xiaomi 13T Pro
Following extensive troubleshooting by the development team, the new firmware is expected to be free of major stability issues. In addition to Android 16 features and HyperOS 3 refinements, this build includes the February 2026 security patch to enhance system defenses.
The revised firmware versions for the Xiaomi 13T Pro across various regions are listed below:
- Global: OS3.0.1.0.WMLMIXM
- Turkey: OS3.0.1.0.WMLTRXM
- Taiwan: OS3.0.1.0.WMLTWXM
- Russia: OS3.0.1.0.WMLRUXM
Poco F5 Receives Android 15-Based Update
The popular price-performance champion Poco F5 has also joined the stable update phase. However, there is a technical distinction: while the 13T Pro receives an Android 16 build, the Poco F5 update is based on Android 15. This is because the Poco F5 has already completed its allocated two major Android OS upgrades and is not included in the Android 16 support roadmap.
Distributed globally under the version number “OS3.0.3.0.VMRMIXM,” this package also incorporates the February 2026 security patch, addressing dozens of vulnerabilities.
Vital Guidelines Before Installation
Users should prepare for a substantial download, with the update package size reaching approximately 2 GB (up to 6.5 GB for the 13T Pro in some regions). A stable Wi-Fi connection is strongly recommended. Additionally, to prevent data loss or power failures during the transition, ensure your device has at least 40% battery charge and that all critical data is backed up before proceeding.
If you have not yet received an automatic notification, you can manually check for the update by navigating to Settings > My Device and tapping the OS logo.
