A fault message could appear after attaching a magnetic plate to the Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro due to interference with the Hall sensors. Magnetic plates possess magnetic shielding properties, which can disrupt the functionality of multiple Hall sensors in the device, including those responsible for detecting the stylus, keyboard, and screen wake/sleep functions.
To ensure proper functionality while maintaining optimal heat dissipation, Xiaomi has designated specific areas for attaching magnetic plates. Placing the plate outside these recommended areas can lead to sensor misactivation, triggering fault messages or unexpected behavior.
For the best experience, it is advised to follow the official placement guidelines to minimize sensor interference and ensure that all device functions operate as intended.
