I noticed today that the ADM does not locate my phone anymore. I dont think I installed anything out of the ordinary that would cause location problems. just general apps/games, rooted, xposed framework....
3rd party apps find my phone fine, just not ADM. I tried this method --> Android Device Manager Not Locating Phone Fix however it proved futile as well.
Any suggestions?..Or is anyone else facing this problem?
Thanks for the assistance.
I am running into the same issue as well.. The other day I tried following several guides to get to work, but in the end I signed into and out of my google account a few times, went into my google settings online and deleted all my old mobile devices, and eventually ADM starting working properly.
Unfortunately I just checked it today and ADM can't locate my device again. I don't know what the issue is now or how to fix it and keep it working.
Just tested with a ZF2 and ADM worked fine here.

Got a 2017 VW and my old Xiaomi Mi Mix worked great with android auto being displayed on the dash.
I'm currently sitting on the 8.8.9 chinese miui 10 beta rom on the Mi Max 3 and I can't seem to get android auto to sync to the car.
Anyone else run into this?

Is that the Xiaomi EU rom in the rom section?
And just to double check, Does android auto actually display on your car's screen ok? (I can launch Android auto on the phone fine)

It's an older version as I haven't updated yet... Don't know whether to do so as I'm happy with it as it is and my current version doesn't have anti rollback!

Connects to my head unit display. It's in a 17 plate VW golf.
I always remove Android auto, Google, music apps, Google Maps etc from any battery saving restrictions in the settings and set them to have auto start permissions too.

No problem! It's one of the main reasons I got this phone over the Honor Note 10 as Huawei phones are notoriously bad for working with Android Auto.

My Android Auto would not work either on my phone. I am running MiUi Pro 8.9.6. It recognizes in the car and when I accept to run, it just doesn't show up. I have given it all the permissions required with no luck.

I'm guessing Xiaomi.eu must do something different with gapps then as Android pay also works with EU ROMs when it's based on Chinese miui which normally doesn't support that.
All I can tell you is that on this ROM Android Auto is working perfectly. It also did on my old mi mix 2 also running the EU ROM.

Xiaomi.eu No Go
I tried the latest Xiaomi.eu ROM yesterday and got the dreaded Error -16 on it.
I just have no luck, and I need Android Auto work . Anyone have any suggestions?
I've got the same issue, really want AA to work again...

I can't get it working consistently on any of the EU roms newer than 8.8.9. I have filed a bug report for it in the standard MIUI forum, if it gets fixed there it should then get fixed in EU.
What you guys can do is register for the MIUI bug forum and then you can Confirm my bug report. The more people that Confirm it the more attention it is going to get so it gets fixed..
Here's a link to my bug report. Please Confirm it.

I have done joined your bug reporting. I hope more people voice their concerns on this topic.
Just to add some info to this... I am on MIUI 9 Global rom 9.6.8.0. I can get Android Auto to work by toggling the USB debugging in Developer settings. It doesn't seem to matter if its on or off, I just have to toggle it and android auto fires right up and connects to the car.
Very weird indeed, there is still some work needed to be done with these roms and Android Auto it seems.
Potential AA solution for Mi Max 3
Hi all - I've just signed up to post this reply, which I hope is helpful to someone at least.
Similar to a number of you, I have struggled to get AA working on the Max 3 (I received my Max 3 last week and it is updated to MIUI 10 Global Stable).
I profess to having no coding/coder/engineering background, but I have solved - with consistency - the lack of compatibility on my Skoda Superb (VAG unit). Where other phones are fine, this wasn't playing nicely.
Essentially, the car would see the phone, but when pressing one of the options on the touch-screen in the car (you choose Android Auto or Mirror Link), it would say that there is an error and to check the device was Mirror Link compatible.
After rebooting/fiddling, I managed to get it to link up once or twice from maybe a dozen tries. What I hadn't done is recorded my process of getting it to work.
Turns out it is pretty simple.
Clearing all apps from the system RAM via the menu button (three lines in MIUI 10, or, swipe up and hold for gestures) makes my Max 3 connect first time to the car without fail. I have read something about apps in the background conflicting with the messages/instructions sent and received, but hey - my layman's solution seems to be doing the trick.
If it works for you, excellent. If not, I apologise and hope a permanent solution comes along! MIUI is a strange beast with some options - some superb (individual data access via 4G and WiFI for example), some really backward (no merging of external SD to internal is criminal!).

I am glad this thread is getting some attention, hopefully Xiaomi sees it....
I just went out and tried your method and unfortunately it didn't work for me, but I certainly appreciate you adding your workaround to this thread.
The workaround for me is to plug in the USB cable to the phone and then toggle the USB debugging and it connects as soon as I either turn on or off USB debugging. So as usual with these Chinese phones something is running in the background that is looking for Android Auto connections and the task managers on these phones are killing it. (toggling USB debugging must start whatever service is needed and it instantly connects) At least that's my theory anyways
Xiaomi.... Android does not need task killers! Please stop trying to "Optimize Memory", Free ram is totally wasted ram! The ram should be full of cached stuff for optimal performance, LOL

Ah sorry to hear this.
Mine won't stay in USB debug mode anyway, but shame it hasn't sorted for you.
If it's an issue with other applications though, it would be good to figure out which one upsets it being detected right away.
Hi!.
I've been having this annoying problem with Galaxy Wearable app for the last three days where the app crashes on launch every time. I've been trying to fix it all this time and i have tried different remedies that didn't help at all. I haven't the slightest clue what's wrong and i don't know where to ask for help so i figured i ask for it here first. I'll post a logcat if anyone is willing to help.
Here's what i've tried so far:
1. Cleared cache - Didn't fix the issue
2. Cleared storage - Didn't fix the issue
3. Complete reinstall of the Wearable app and services - Didn't fix the issue
4. Removed the Samsung account - Didn't fix the issue
5. Resetting the watch and setting it back up again - Didn't fix the issue
6. Tried 3 and 5 together - Didn't fix the issue
7. Did a clean install of ROM (Havoc 2.8) - Fixed the issue but it came back in about an hour
9. Rolled back to the previous build of Havoc (2.7) - Same as above, problem came back after some time
10. Dirty flashed 2.8 - Same
11. Restored to 2.8 and uninstalled a bunch of apps that i thought might be clashing with the Wearable app - Didn't fix the issue
ANY help would be much appreciated. I'm starting to think something is wrong with the watch itself.
EDIT: Never mind, i found what's going on. It's Samsung Pay that's making the app crash. I uninstalled it on a whim and now it works!!! Mods, kindly delete this thread.
How much memory your phone got? Try to close all other apps and then try. I have the same behave with other apps on my Moto phone.

Yep had the same exact problem the other day after upgrading to Android 10. There's another thread in here where I found the same issue (it's throwing a java ClassNotFound exception on mine). It's especially nefarious because they sideload the pay plugin so you won't see it if you're uninstalling via the play store, and it's not sorted alphabetically with the other Samsung apps so you might not even see it if you're searching manually.
I say nefarious because depending on how bad the crash is (background task vs UI), they may not be able to even push an automatic fix since they're not using the play store. Seems like a pretty terrible approach to me.

I got 3 gigs and not even half of it being used at idle. And i don't really do memory intensive stuff on my phone anyway. The issue was definitely Samsung Pay. if anyone has this issue where you're running Pie and are rooted with any version of magisk, uninstall Pay. It's been a few days and i haven't had this issue repeat even once.

I just uninstalled Pay from the app list in settings and rebooted. If there is a sneaky sideloaded plugin somewhere, it doesn't seem to be interfering with the Wearables app anymore.
And I guess you're right about this being a terrible approach. But Pay isn't even supported where i currently live so my question is WHY even sideload it on a device being used in an unsupported region... Such a waste of resources.
I've updated with OTA stable update and it's seemed to mess things up. Now I can't attach attachments in any app, open dual apps, it comes up with complete action using and it's blank. It seems to make the phone useless now.
Even when trying to send things it doesn't want to attach it
I too have big problems after updating to Android 11 on the Global Mi10T Pro., but it's version 12.1.1.xxx for me.
Apps like GMail, Maps etc work ok. Many others like Chrome, Brave etc just hang. Gestures no longer work. Settings is unreliable.
PC Suite won't connect - it says I need to update my device.
I wonder whether I have to try a Factory Reset - but that's a pain with no proper backup of all the apps and their state.
EEA version 12.1.2.0 - CRAP!!!
@madnlooney: enable MIUI optimizations in developer options and you will solve problems.
My bugs: at once part of touchscreen where green phone is (for answering calls) just stops working. And it is not working in any app, in screen test app.... until reboot. And it happens randomly... I think this will be my last xiaomi device. I had mi max 3 for over 2 years without resets and stuff, worked like a charm (eu rom). I broke screen (waiting new screen atm).
additional problem (happened on previous versions): mobile data just stop working. I have to turn it off and than on again. I am using both SIM slots (private+work).
Now i have big problem with this since i am on a business trip outside my country and I have problems with phone (and factory reset is out of options, since I have AND USE bank app (among others - work apps), so no go). When I return I will ditch it and buy other brand...
This phone had problems on Android 10 and has problems now too. between mi max3 and this i had poco x3nfc and had problems with it too - I think xiaomi cant keep up with huge amount of models that puts to market.
has anyone maybe some solution to my problems?

Custom roms. Most of the apps will work out of the box if you don't root your device. Few of the banking apps that don't work can be solved with magiskhide...
Thanks, bit as I mentioned, not possible ATM, I cant open bootloader and I dont have access to bank, since i am >1500km out of my country.
Considering that is 2021, it looks like i am ditching xiaomi (after 7 years).

If we enable that, how to install split apk files? is there a solution for that too?
dual apps are miui thing, nothing to do with miui optimization
Well, EEA version 12.1.2.0 - is CRAP indeed!!!
It has been a childish attempt like: Hurray we are on android 11 too...!!!
First, they have not checked the main feature of a phone... To make and end Phone calls....
The "end" button does not respond sometimes. Randomly.
I've seen this reported in several discussions and no response from support.
Second, after the update to 12.1.2.0 SECOND SPACE broke..!!
The option to add and remove files disappeared.
A bad surprise, as the only option given, for the data you had saved in second space is to DELETE..
The import export option for files just vanished.
We can only hope that Miui 12.5 will make the Mi 10t Pro a descent Phone as it is an excellent hardware.
What I hate with this v12 is, (not sure if it was same with the previous ones) to be forced to use the mi search. If someone knows how to revert it back to Google search, will be greatly appreciated.
And if any Xioami staff or responsible seeing this message, i need to tell this. ’I don't have to use your crappy search *hit, and noone can force me to do something for a device I paid for. You have all the stupid ’features' and ads in a single thing. And the recommendations, ohh, will make me vomit...
Before you recommend me what to search for, let me recommend you something first. Go and learn why Google is doing the best with keeping the apps pure and simple. When I want to search for the best wines to drink for dinner, you're forcing me to see the turtle copulation video. What a smart software.
As I said before, if someone can help me to delete this useless app to the ground, will appreciate a lot.
Hey Folks,
Have a MatePad Pro 10.8 that had GMS and app installed and running via Googleifier and over the past few days the Google Core apps have all stopped running for me.
I have the device ID registered on the uncertified devices page and still no joy.
Nothing has changed with my setup, so I'm assuming that Google are enforcing their license and the US sanctions?
Is there any current way to avoid these restrictions?
Google Apps is working just fine for me on Matepad Pro.

It was working fine for me too from November and my Googleifier effort up until the 31/5.
Play store had stopped working earlier in May, but since Sunday, Chrome is closing on launch with an uncertified message too.
I'll take some time later this week to roll back the apps to earlier versions and see if that changes things.
Thanks for the input.
