Is the version that you factory reset is S233? I encounter some crashing when using to Nougat, but after factory reset everything works fine. No app crash at all. Been using since Nougat first released a few months back. I can say S233 is the best version for our phone as of now. You may want to try factory reset again.

I am on same version but there are app crashes and lagging issues on Facebook and Twitter

Bought Lenovo P2 4Gb version few days back, some updates were available, updated using OTA to last one, one by one, did factory reset and cache cleaning with each step. Updated all existing APPs, installed some required APPs.
It hangs, APPs crashing, most annoying is it's speaker start stuttering on it's own randomly even when sitting on the desk, stuttering will go on for 30 to 45 seconds and then will stop.
After any such event, like crash/hang/stutter, finger print scanner will ask for pass code as if phone has been power recycled.
Any fix recommended, except for cache cleaning, recovery cache cleaning etc, I have already tried them?

Google Play system update problem

My Google Play system update was stuck on 1 July for several months now. And today I notice it turns red with no more updates available. Anyone have the same problem nor know how to fix it?
I'm on latest stock ROM with locked BL.

Same here, is there an update??

That is apparently the current version?

Same on my phone, but I could update it manually to Sept 1. now.
Weird that it was not done automatically.

Oh, mine had the update today. 6.3k, can't have been much in it.
I don't think it was automatic in the past either. But I have is updates set to manual so maybe that's why?

Download and install this Apk if you are on the Sept Patch

Same story on my other phone Samsung A30s. So I guess it's not A2 lite specific.

This was a problem for me as well. My moto g 5g was stuck on that of 1 August 2020. I searched all over the internet but couldn't find anything that would work. I even did a factory reset but that too didn't work and the it was still showing that no updates were available. But yesterday while I was using the "Multiple User" option available under the "System" in settings (not as guest but new user) and tried checking Google Play system update and surprisingly there was an update available. I changed from new user to the original user (admin) and found that still there was no update available there. So I checked back to the new user and updated the phone. Why Google treated the new user differently is something that I want to know?

Question Cannot update Chrome application on global Poco F3 due to unfinished configuration of brand new Android device

Hi all,
I've tried to update my chrome application (the pre-installed on my Global Poco F3 which is under MIUI Global 12.02 stable global) I have tried multiple times to update the Chrome app from the Google Play Store with no success to this day.
I've investigated using adb logcat and I've seen a specific error trigger itself :
4-10 00:34:14.008 17140 17170 E Finsky : [993] tvh.apply(44): IQ::GROUP_INSTALL: Error validating group. Rejecting requests: [com.google.android.trichromelibrary, com.android.chrome]

Obfuscated long Java backtrace...

I have tried to update chrome on a Redmi Note 8 pro without success as well. However, under LOS (Lineage OS 18.1) another phone has successfully updated the Chrome app, meaning this issue is probably not due to a weird Google Play Store bug but most likely due to MIUI 12.
Anyone has encountered this issue ? And is there any way we could work around this ? (instead of waiting for a potential fix in MIUI 12.5)
Thanks for any help on this matter, I can provide the whole backtrace if anyone want to see it but I doubt it would help anyway since she looks pretty obfuscated to me (the only thing I could understand was some execute function being called but all the classes names have been randomized and most functions call names too).

Hi! This is usually a problem for those who have set up the system for the first time. I also encountered this, after a while Google Chrome was updated on its own. The same applies to the Android System WebView application. Wait for a while and the app will update.
UPD: Or you can download right now from apkmirror.com, if you want

But my Redmi Note 8 Pro isn't brand new, but I still encounter an issue to upgrade Chrome at least, I'm not too sure how long should I be waiting ? (like 6 months or just even a few weeks I guess ?)

Okay, try log out from your Google account, then clear data & cache Google Play Services, Service Framework and Google play store too, then reboot and login again, but not sure about this method

I cannot understand the mistake. I updated Chrome to the latest version 3 days ago.

You were correct, I had unfinished the device configuration (the first time you have to connect your Google account etc.) hence it didn't work to update Chrome and Android Web View, I just finished it right now and Chrome did successfully update. That's weird I think Android should change (if this issue is at the Android level).
In the end I didn't need to do all this logging out, clearing data & cache and so on, just finishing the device configuration solved the issue.

I had a somewhat permanent notification that said something along the lines of "Finish configuration of your device" I clicked on it and then I pressed next and tweaked the last options, once that notification was cleared, all the Google Apps kinda of updated themselves somehow (I saw some of them even reinstalled themselves that was a bit weird but everything went fine afterwards).

Thank you for your help.
Unfortunately I didn't have this message to "Finish configuration". So, I followed a tutorial on internet and erase all Google play store and Google Play services data.
After that rebooted the phone and put my information again on Play Store and than the update starts working for it self.

Good thing you figure it out, and also thanks for explaining how for others who will face this issue, maybe sometimes the notification disappears for some reason or the configuration doesn't finish successfully and this issue happens.

Question MIUI 13.0.3.0.SKHEUXM on Xiaomi Poco F3

Hello everyone.
Today I decided to update my phone (12.5.8 Enhanced) to the latest MIUI version. I was kind of skeptical going into it, but still went with it thinking "why not?" When the update finished and the phone booted, it immediately rebooted and I thought maybe that's supposed to do that, but then it rebooted again, this time to MIUI Recovery mode. And now I discovered that whenever the phone tries to connect to the WIFI or Mobile data, it reboots. Every time. When the internet is turned off, it doesn't. And I noticed that my phone has become a bit laggy and not as responsive as with the previous version of MIUI I had on it, even the refresh rate isn't working properly, it says 120hz but clearly it's 60hz. The update rendered my phone hardly usable. What could be the problem? Has any Poco F3 users encountered these problems? What should I do next? Should I really consider flashing a custom ROM?
Thank you in advance, any help is kindly appreciated.

Wow. This is just with a System update on a phone with a locked bootloader?
You could try to format data... aka. Factory Reset.
If you unlock your bootloader, you must be aware of the downsides. Some apps won't work (atleast not without a workaround), like Banking apps, Netflix, Super Mario Kart, Google Pay.
That's cuz Google's SafetyNet API reports to those apps that the Security-Status of your phone is "Fail", because of the unlocked bootloader.
You can hide it with Custom ROMs that specifically list "SafetyNet passed" or by using Magisk Root with a SafetyNet Fix Module. Or Both idk whatever.
I use Xiaomi.eu Custom ROM on Android 12 with Magisk Root. Everything works, but this stupid cat & mouse game with Google and Android Modders definitely sucks.

I have a POCO F3 phone. No problems. Hope you used windows_fastboot_first_install_with_data_format.bat. In your case, you must not use the windows_fastboot_update_rom.bat option.
I have been using MIUI 13.0.3.0.SKHEUXM for a while. There was no problem.
Now I'm on MIUI 22.3.2 / 3 (weekly). I recommend. Works great, amazingly smooth, great option for new sidebar widgets ...
Of course, you need to have an unlocked bootloader. Look here: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/howto-install-fastboot-image-update-info-no-ota-download.64508/
I have an unlocked bootloader. NETFLIX and Google Pay work without any problems.

Rule no.1 of miui: never update until the community approves of the update. there are always bugs, sometimes some are fixed, but other show up.
Im sure that there'll be a new update which will solve these problems soon, but who knows what kinds of issues you'll have after that. Maybe you should unlock the bootloader and flash back to miui 12.5x stock, so that you can actually use your phone.

Exactly, all are said here ... No probleme with stable and weekly version ... Balaam custom kernel can help also on those rom.

After any major OS update ( I mean moving from one version of android to another) It is recommended to do a factory reset to your phone just after the update finishes.
I always do it for my phones and I did the same for my Poco F3 and had no issues so far. The phone works great, battery improved drastically for me and overall feels fresh.
Try to do a factory reset and see how it goes. MAKE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR DATA.

Thanks for the replies.

The thing is, in order to do a factory reset on the phone I have to connect to the Internet which is the thing that's causing the phone to reboot.
Can I do it like through the MIUI Recovery panel? Is it the same?

Yes you can do that, you either boot to recovery from option in the update menu or hold volume up and power while the phone is turned off, then select wipe data. Just make sure to delete Mi account from setting and google account ( I know you have no internet but just making sure so you won't get stuck if somehow you forget your password). Good luck.

Got the same problem with the refresh rate.. 120hz option doesn't work and just does 60hz. I'm using the update my phone gave me. No beta or custom stuff. Just got the 13.0.3 global stable update. 120hz isn't working. Are there any better options for me now? I was thinking about flashing the previous 12.5 update back again. I heard someone here say I can use the xiaomi.eu custom ROM which works to root that one.. where can I find that ROM? And how do I flash that. (I've rooted phones before with magisk) but forgot most of it haha. So what's my best option here? I need my 120hz

Yeah, the refresh rate not working as intended is frustrating. As with the downgrading and flashing, I'm afraid I can't help you with it, because I haven't done anything with flashing/rooting and all that kind of stuff. Wishing the best for you.
Kindest regards and best of luck

Yoo. Some dude on Reddit found the solution!!!! You have to disable miui optimisation. Go to developer settings. Then all the way down somewhere it says: reset to default values. Click that a few times. Now a setting a bit down should pop up saying: "enable miui optimisation" enable that if it isn't already. Then disable it again. Now go to display settings and switch to 60 then back to 120 and there you go. You can now enjoy your 120hz again

I had the same reboot problem with WiFi an mobile data. I could fix it with restoring all previously debloated apps. I am not sure which app exactly caused the reboot issues but now it works normal again.

Banking apps work if you don't root the phone. Descendant ROM for instance passes SafetyNet as long as you do not install Magisk.

Yup, I mentioned that in my comment. But depends on the Custom ROM of course, not all pass SafetyNet. The devs usually mention it tho.

Hi, is there a way to use MIUI launcher instead of Poco launcher on poco f3 MIUI 13 locked bootloader ?? Thanks !

Since the upgrade, the audio from my phone cuts out after a few minutes and I have to restart it. I use bluetooth earphones to listen to the 'BBC Sounds' app over my home wifi. It doesn't cut out if I use a Redmi Note 8 pro nor a Samsung A5 in the same circumstances.
I don't know if it related but sometime I receive a warning notification tha I've been wearing my earphones too long. I didn't receive this warning before the Miui 13 upgrade.
Can anyone suggest what I can do to resolve the problem with the audio on my Poco F3 ?

Unable to update Redmi Note 8 Pro(MIUI 12.5.8.0)

So I have been receiving notifications of an OTA update, but clicking on it never opens anything. No update shows up inside the settings.
Does anybody have any solution for this? OR is anybody facing the same issue?
Attached a video recording showing the same...

MIUI is such a garbage ROM. Always full of bugs.

Have you unlocked your bootloader. If so then you will not be able to install or get an ota update. Instead you can flash your phone using miflash

Just go to settings and search 'google play system update ' you will tap on said option and you will see the command to update and install,
That's how I fixed mine
