Android Auto work ok for you? - Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers

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!

Does it actually connect to the screen in your car ok, Or are you just running the android auto app on your phone?

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.

Ok thank you for confirmation, I'll see about moving over to the EU rom and see how that works for me. (Also 2017 Golf)

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.

Glad you got it working mate, I couldn't live without Android Auto now I'm used to it!

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.

Wifi issues

So I did a google search and could not find much on this subject. Basically on Google Maps it keeps me within 200 feet of my position I can never get a full lock. And if I use any other non Google GPS or navigation software it says my GPS is not turned on when clearly it is. Is anyone else having an issue like this. I bought this tablet to control my work van with a set of relays I've installed and to use as my primary GPS.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
Edit: my title meant to say GPS issues
No GPS on the pixel c. Should have checked that before you bought it.
Well it has GPS settings and I have mine set to high accuracy mode. It even has stand alone GPS settings

That's probably just a universal setting in Android. But it has been confirmed on several sites that there is no actual GPS hardware in the Pixel C. So it really only uses WiFi to determine your location.
Wow. That really sucks. Looked at couple sites for specs. All the ones I checked besides one list gps as a sensor. Wtf. Well. That's OK. But fact is if remix OS isn't available for this tablet soon im gonna get rid of it. This thing has a beautiful display but alot of issues. With remix OS on it I think I could use it more for productivity for my business. Then grab a Nexus 10 to control my truck.

I wouldn't count on Remix OS being on it
As it stands the Tablet is still a complete mess to develop on and that Chrome OS bootloader makes it worse from what i'm hearing.
On top of that the tablet just isn't popular enough which this forum should show you...Development for this tablet won't really take off until the price goes down or Google sorts it out which probably won't happen.
EDIT: Oh looks like they do plan to release on the Pixel C. that's great news! but I bet they hit walls with it.
I'm hoping so. Don't know if you have used remix but I believe it would be great in this device.
I'd be intrigued to try RemixOS, I recently purchased a full bluetooth keyboard with a trackpad and it works great!

Go to remixs site if you just want to try it. They have it for download and the download comes with a program to write a flash drive to boot. Just go into your BIOS and turn fastboot off and change boot order to look for USB first.
Will work on Windows or Mac.
I meant on my pixel c lol

'Call not sent' error on Android 10 beta

Anyone having this problem where call doesn't connect with error of 'Call not sent'? This is doesn't happen when connected to Wi-Fi but happens most of the time otherwise and I have to re-try 2 times (sometimes 10 times) to get the call connected. I have tried clearing data for phone app but it didn't help. I am not seeing any reports on it in any beta discussion so I am guessing its not a beta problem? It never happened before the beta update and I installed the beta update from total reset instead of just updating.
Yes. Only happens when I am on Bluetooth connected to my car. I gave to call from the phone app instead of my driver control.
"Call not sent" error on Samsung Note10
I'm having a similar issue with my Note10, just shows "Call not sent.", whether connected or not to Android Auto or any other dock/bluetooth, it doesn't seem to fix the problem.
I have tried several active sim cards from different carriers which work fine in other phones, but in the Note10 I can only access the web and text. When trying to make a call with full signal bars and LTE next to it, it just shows "Call not sent". I've done all the usual restart, full factory reset from the recovery menu, even reflashed it via Odin with the latest firmware (N970U1_UES2BTA1) three times, then factory reset again, but it's doing the same. It seems to be a hardware problem, not a software glitch.
By the way, my phone is unlocked and I have checked the IMEI to make sure it's not blacklisted. I have also examined the charging port for any liquid damage, but it's completely clean and shiny. When I dial the test code *#0011# to compare the network status screen against a Samsung S9's, I've noticed that the "MIPI TEST SUCCESS" and "ASDiv: PASS THROUGH" at the bottom of the screen are MISSING on the Note10, which might have something to do with the failed calls.
Also, out of curiosity I have installed a couple of different phone dialers (Google Phone and Simpler Dialer), but the outcome is the same "Call not sent.".
Evidently there's a hardware problem with the Note10 series (some or all), because Samsung's own forum full of similar complaints.:=(
Same problem. Getting call not sent
Was not issue in Android 9. Only Android 10.
Galaxy note 10+ unlocked version on tmobile.
I've also had other random Bluetooth issues.
this issue got so bad, i am not able to make calls, unless i make multiple attempts.
so i just upgraded to the S20 Ultra. Same issue!!
Here are other factors and connected devices.
Connected to a Ford vehicle (Sync; 2017 Explorer)
Connected to Samsung Active2 smartwatch (but issues remained even when watch disconnected).
I've also tried to unpair / re-pair. To no avail...
Help!

I have an Exynos Note 10+ I don't seem to have this problem and when I did the test you did I got "MIPI TEST SUCCESS" but nothing about ASDiv.
Could this be a problem with the Snapdragon chipset?

It certainly could be, on all other phones I always see the "MIPI TEST SUCCESS" in test mode, but not on the N970U.
It might be fixed with a new update, unfortunately there's still nothing newer available than UES2BTA1 as of right now.
I have the feeling it's a hardware issue rather than software, in which case it's not going to be fixable, short of replacing the main board.
No idea, why this started happening mostly after the last update.

Are you able to rollback?
As long as the bootloader is the same you might be able to go back to an update prior to the problem.
Not 100% sure but I believe the 5th number from the right in the build number is the bootloader version. Just need to make sure it is the same and you might be able to fix...
Sorry if I'm rambling, working on 3 hours sleep...

Right, but usually same bootloader version updates are just maintenance or critical security updates only.
Looks like some major changes have happened in the latest update, which could be causing the no call issue.
Just checked, and it's still the same version available.

I found a solution!
Google Voice app was the culprit. I uninstalled and so far it has been working for 2 days without issues. Tried this on both my new S20 and the Note 10+.

You may have had a different issue.
Chiming in late to the game with a Samsung Galaxy S20. I never had this issue with the new OS on my S10 but it started happening with the S20. It's also intermittent. Sometimes it works. I have tried unpairing and repairing. I have tried deleting the bluetooth device and reconnecting it. All to no avail. At least other folks recognize this issue and hopefully Samsung issue an update soon.

As nice as this phone is--I am annoyed with myself that I upgraded to Android 10--everything worked so great with 9!!! I wish there was a way to go backwards. I might investigate that, actually. I have a little downtime as of late.
I finally updated to android 10, ui 2.0, and, luckly, all is working fine, only thing I notice is that battery seems to last a little bit less…
i have Android 10 ui 2.1 with infinity rom 6.0 rom N975FD and everything works perfect including goodlock 2020

For me, Android 10, whether UI 2.0 or 2.1
battery.... standby, is exceptional good .!
I am a power user, eg theming etc
so i don't worry or have time to worry,
about SOT ETC....
For me what matters is when , my device is sleeping.....!
/ if anything
is draining my device battery etc.
( Ihave about 200./300 apps.)
Suggestion... factory reset or did you already done that.?
See examples of device overnight
standby etc.

THIS WAS THE FIX FOR ME! I'll have to research why Android 10 isn't playing nicely with Google Voice, but I'm glad I can hit call and it goes though, instead of hitting "send" over and over and over again!!!
S10+ Exynos, running Android 10 stock - same problem. Annoying as hell!
I can't uninstall GV because I use it for international calls.
Edit: BTW - it definitely seems to be affected by connected BT headset. As soon as I turn the BT headset off I am able to make the call (using MPOW headset, don't remember the exact model).

I have had this issue so many times on my S20+ unlocked. Swipe and touch to call just doesn't work. I saw this thread today when I had multiple call not sent instances. I force stopped Google voice and the problem disappeared. If I have to make an international call, I just to start Google Voice.

Are you (were you at the time) connected to a BT headseat? It happens to me only when my headset is connected, and not just one - two different types of headseats and also happened once or twice when the phone was BT connected to my car. As soon as I disconnect the BT, all calls can be completed without a problem.

SOS! Please HELP - XM10T5G Down[&up]grading..

Have the Xiaomi Mi 10T 5G, which comes with Android 10 / MIUI 12 [Sort of combination of them i think], and i wanna install an older version of android only, lower than 10 [Preferably 7.0], is it possible to do at all? If so, then how exactly can i do that? if possible with exact instruction or guide to it..
Thanks ahead..
PEACE AND LOVE!

For many reasons.. They changed it in some very bad way for my opinion.. like the auto turning on WiFi by some apps, like some apps that don't have widgets, the call recording issue and many more very annoying unreasonable changes they did on A10 on.. saw also they only allow FBE encryption instead of FDE which is much better [That i can see for huge 128, 256 or maybe 512 Gigs Storages but still it should be up to the user decision not forcing]
So you say it's completely impossible? even if flash universal / rooted ROM? no way at all?! cause man those are really annoying stuff especially to the tech Pros and/or savvy's like us, and i know that since i saw many threads and posts in other forums about those issues too.. Maybe some giving up or thinking it's advancements, but really, maybe big money involved, espionage, and many more possible reasons they doing it.. It's bad, really bad..
* BTW sorry for the multiplication threads didn't knew it's SPAMing and not very involved it forums world..

To be honest I don't understand none of your points.
1. Wifi can be still turned on by apps, you just need to enable the permission (allow always vs. allow only when app is running in foreground).
2. Call recording is working in regions where it's not forbidden by privacy laws.
3. FBE is much better because it allows you to start the phone with basic service without using the password. Not sure why do you consider FDE to be superior.
4. Well, you can try to build your own Android 7 ROM from old sources, but you're going to have a fun time adapting to vendor partition/proprietary files created for Android 10 or 11. Also using several years old code which is not supported or patched anymore is quite interesting approach to security.

Maybe it's regional or SROMs based issue, but the vendor of the app said it's not allowed on Android 10 and on, and i did confirmed the permission to turn on WiFi automatically, but maybe there's some other settings that i missed and that guy was wrong, i'd love if you can show how to enable it globally and/or to just the auto file sync i use, cause i tried many times even with manual syncing [by clicking the Sync button when WiFi is off, it started and turn it off automatically on Android 7.0.. Of course also for time interval based sync]..

Hi.. Thanks for your reply.. i did that already before, but still it doesn't work.. i use FolderSync, that currently in my old Android 7.0 device, does syncing when i click Sync from within the app, while i was totally offline [Data and Wifi] so it turned on the Wifi connection [Specific home network], and also on Scheduled i inserted the Allowed Networks SSID [Which BTW when i turn on WiFi manually and it does sync it with GDrive, it say on top 'Unknown SSID' for case it matters {Had the feeling that it very much does}], I also switced it on in Data and WiFI limit it does on that Security app, which i guess is kind of firewall, and BTW i remember like 5-6 years ago i had the Lenovo A8 "Golden Worrier" has that same kind of Security app built in with firewall and all that, but still manually at least, as i checked, it doesn't turn on the Wifi via FolderSync app.. Got a strong feeling it's due to that Unknown SSID stuff or that Security app.. Could it be?..

Thanks for your reply.. i did that already before, but still it doesn't work.. i use FolderSync, that currently in my old Android 7.0 device, does syncing when i click Sync from within the app, while i was totally offline [Data and Wifi] so it turned on the Wifi connection [Specific home network], and also on Scheduled i inserted the Allowed Networks SSID [Which BTW when i turn on WiFi manually and it does sync it with GDrive, it say on top 'Unknown SSID' for case it matters {Had the feeling that it very much does}], I also switced it on in Data and WiFI limit it does on that Security app, which i guess is kind of firewall, and BTW i remember like 5-6 years ago i had the Lenovo A8 "Golden Worrier" has that same kind of Security app built in with firewall and all that, but still manually at least, as i checked, it doesn't turn on the Wifi via FolderSync app.. Got a strong feeling it's due to that Unknown SSID stuff or that Security app.. Could it be?..

FolderSync doesn't turn Wifi On automatically, this feature seems to be missing in the app. But I've just tested with Tasker and it is able to turn Wifi On and Off, so it's not a problem of Android version.
For Allowed SSID feature in FolderSync you must enable permanent location access.
Btw. I see no point in turning Wifi Off at any point, it uses so little power that there is next to none benefit in doing it. If you insist on some kind of automation, use Tasker in a fully controlled manner.

Well your first argument is actually not tru, FolderSync does turns on Wifi automatically as i do for like 4 years with my older Galaxy s6 [Great dev BTW, Samsung's first 64 bit device i thinks] running now Android 7.0, and also the other day and im sure if ill try this right now it will actually turning on WiFi from off mode and also automatically closed it when done syncing, but no matter what i did it doesn't doing it on the XM10T5G, and it both updated to the latest FolderSync version the one with those tiles.. so it must be something with the operation system.. again it's some kind of Andro/MIUI OS so it has to do with one of them..
About the SSID, i did confirmed the location access all the time [not just when it's used] on the Security app, is there any other place that i should enable location or any other settings that may be relating to this?..
And really? you don't see the point in using Wifi? It's much more faster, secure, and reliable than data.. of course i don't care if it'll be 4G or 5G even better to sync, but obviously not any connection, but thanks for the Tasker Tip, i'll try that.. i've heared that somewhere i think from the gut of FolderSync..
And BTW, the call recording is legal in my country, so i did also many years but here only after trying several apps i found Cube ACR working good.. And also, some apps ask you if you confirm that Call recording is legal in your country but of course if you flash custom or different ROM, the system obviously can never tell..
Peace..

I see no point in turning wifi OFF.
Anyway, good luck finding/building your perfect Andoid 7 ROM.

Again security and energy reasons.. Think about it..
Anyway i barely know how to flash ROM, so i'm very far from building a custom one.. But at start you said it's impossible to install / flash an older Android ROM to it [XM10T5G], so you say it's possible with custom ROM?

Again - not possible, such ROM doesn't exist.

Issues with 12.1.2.0

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.

Question ColorOS 12/12.1 users: Do you have an issue with notifications not showing on AOD/Lockscreen?

I'm trying out COS and its genuinely one of the smoothest experiences for this phone I had, until I realized that no matter how many factory resets I did, no matter how many notifications settings I changed / toggled I could not get a single notification to show on LS/AOD. Anyone else? I'm on LE2125.
I noticed that as well. I ended up having to go back to OOS because it was killing a lot of my apps in the background and I was missing notifications from that and also the lock screen issue. It sucks because as you say, it was a pretty smooth experience once I figured out how to work around some things with the OS (took me a bit to figure out how to sign up for HeyTap/Oppo Cloud so I could sideload because it wouldn't let me sign up on the phone).
You left Google in one of your slots. MSM tool OTA, and local update cos 11.a.13. Then flash cos12

I wiped my phone after I went to COS. Nothing Google was left. Same issue remained.
My experience was different. I got the notification's but can't download MMS pictures. I tried almost every text, mms app there was but nothing. Yes colorOS is so smooth. I ran it for along time. So unfortunately I went back to android. Now I'm getting my pic. Damn.

Can't be possible. I MSM to 11.2.2.2, took one OTA to 11.2.10.10. Then I Local Update to OOS C.47 (also tried MSM and then local update to OOS C.36) and no matter what I try, notifications do not appear on the lock screen / AOD.
unfortunately, cos for China only supports certain apps like QQ, WeChat, texts or phone calls to be shown on the aod. Only the global version of cos for oppo phones supports it but there's no cos global for oneplus phones.

Certainly noticed that COS doesn't like to show notifications for third party apps at all. The default was no sound, no lock screen, no banner on everything. It was so annoying changing that for every app

That is extremely disappointing given how positive of an experience I had on COS. Too bad there isn't a magisk module or anything to fix it. It genuinely is the best ROM I've ever used on the OP9P. It's always the tiniest things that make me have to stop using a ROM lol.

No, I'll make a video later. I gotta fetch the time first.
Yes, this are the 2 problems for me too with ColorOS. I use it from C.36 to C.61.
Notifications not working on my phone (non chinese apps, of course) & the clock option (Power ON the phone and sound the alarm). This one is more important to me wake up for work.

I couldn't found any method that let me show notifications on aod on my op9pro with cos. Just tell us if you know how to get its notifications to work properly
Notification not working for Non chinese apps.
For now ColorOS is not fully Global for Oneplus 9 Pro.
