Pokémon Go: Users banned due to their Xiaomi terminal already have their accounts active again
Pokémon Go users who were banned because of a Xiaomi smartphone function can now access their accounts again.
During the last weeks there has been a significant problem among users who played Pokémon Go on Xiaomi terminals. One of the functions of the Xiaomi terminals was detected as a cheating system. This caused users with these terminals to be expelled and banned from Pokémon Go. Niantic has investigated the problem and it seems that they have managed to solve this problem.
The problem seems to be in the Xiaomi Game Boost function. It seems that the game detected it as a cheating system and expelled users. Faced with this problem, Niantic and Xiaomi have worked to see what was happening and why users were excluded. Niantic acknowledges that banned users have not violated any regulations.
Niantic returns Pokémon Go accounts to those who have Xiaomi terminals
Those who were excluded from the game due to this error can now play again without major problems. Niantic has reactivated the accounts of these users and they continue to investigate the incident.
Although Niantic has not given an official statement, it seems that the company is already reactivating the accounts since last night. So whoever has a Xiaomi terminal can enjoy Pokémon Go again.
They have only launched a message in your Twitter account, without giving more data. What is unknown is why the Game Boost feature caused users to be banned. Xiaomi has not given much data either, although they claim that its function should not generate this problem.
The foreseeable thing is that Niantic has generated some type of exception for users who use Xiaomi terminals. We will wait to know the origin of this problem that has unexpectedly left many users out. Remember that the game during the month of August generated a very significant increase in income.
