I was excited when I got my new mi 8 lite. I have owned a few redmi note 4x and this was a good upgrade. Liked the fact that it had usb-c and Bluetooth 5.0. I had an older set of tws bt 4.2 earbuds and figured I would uodate to some bt 5.0 earbuds. Found a decent pair of mpow t5 and the problems started. I was running miui v10 pie and they would pair but never connect. Now problems with miui v10 oreo or any aosp roms but all miui based pie wouldn't work.
Over the next few months I would try different fixes I could think of. Different firmware, different kernels, edits of all kinds of files. I would compare aosp/miui pie/miui oreo for any differences. Nothing worked. Then I tried a miui pie gsi based off mi mix 3 and my mpow earbuds finally worked.
So finally after swapping out the Bluetooth library files from the mix 3 I have my headphones working.
I have not seen anyone posting about this issue but if anyone has problems I will be uploading the files and linking them in this thread. I will make a flashable zip to make things easy.
