ANT Forum

Hello!. I have a xiaomi mi5 and i can see ANT HAL SERVICE installed.
I installed ANT radio SERVICE and ant plugins SERVICE but ant+ doesn't work.

Ant Checker shows:

Ant Capable: √
Built-in Ant detected: No
Usb host support: Yes
Add-on adapter support: yes

Airplane Mode:
On airplane mode list: No
On toggleable radio list: No

ANT support version info:
Buil-in firmware: No
ANT HAL:libantradio.so:Qualcoom UART. Version 1.8.0
ANT HAL service: 4.0.0
ANT Radio Service: 4.14.0
ANT+ Plugins: 3.6.0
Android OS: 6.0


Would i use ant+ with the phone?
Thanks!      

Xiaomi doesn't have a built in ANT radio so you'll need to use an external adapter.

See http://www.selfloops.com/resources/tech-guides.html or http://store.selfloops.com/android-ant-combo-mini-ant-usb-mini-plus-cable/ for more info on where you can get one.      

I've a Xiaomi mi5 (64Gb/3Gb) with CyanogenMod 13 and i've this on Ant+ tester
