Question Messages By Google Not working on EU rom - Xiaomi Poco F4 (Munch) / Redmi K40S

Does anyone know how to make messages by google work on EU roms? I'm on latest stable on poco f4 and I can't seem to make it work. I granted it as default aoo but it is not working. Can't even compose a message at all. I wanted to use this because it has spam blocking features and here in the Philippines we are bombarded by spam SMS everyday.

EU? I think the F4 was only sold in IX (global) variant. Google messages is working fine on mine.

I'm using the xiaomi.eu custom rom and they are using their base is china rom that uses MI dialer and messages.

1. Set mi messages as default sms app
2. Force stop and clear data google messages
3. Enable permission manually in settings before opening google messages(important)
4. Launch the google messages and set as default sms app

Thanks. It worked. I don't know why we need to follow this rigorous step to make it work.

Hi Lohtse,
Sorry! We had copied and pasted an ellipsized link. It's fixed now. Thanks! We have seen some issues on Xiaomi devices. We are working on them.
Regarding Refresh button, if you press the Inbox button again, it should refresh the inbox if there has been any new messages. Please let us know if this is not
what happens on your device. Once again, thank you very much!

"WHEN" it is working if I press the inbox to refresh as you have suggested it simple FC's the App on the phone.... It does work(app) from time to time but not enough to be useful
Devices are Sony Smart watch 3 and Xiaomi Note 2, BOTH on latest roms!

Hi Lohtse,
Xiaomi devices allow only the default SMS app to access the SMS. Can you go to the Settings and change it (i.e., change the setting so it will not block other apps from accessing the SMS)? After doing this, please run Drextee Messenger again. Please let us know if it works properly or not. Thank you very much!

how would you suggest I do this as I have it ALREADY set to Handcent!
And that would not explain why it work sometimes but not others!
Also my partner has the Asus Zenwatch and Xiaomi Note 2 and no such issues!

Hi Lohtse,
Thank you very much for the information!
> how would you suggest I do this as I have it ALREADY set to Handcent!
If there is any option in the settings to block apps from accessing SMS, please toggle it to allow Drextee to access the SMS.
Otherwise, you can set Drextee Messenger as the default SMS app and open it on your watch
a few times to see if it crashes. Then, on your phone you can set the default SMS app back to Handcent.
Another test that you can do is the following,
send an email or Google Hangout to yourself. When you see the Drextee notification on your watch, open it and reply to it.
This will open Drextee Messenger on your watch. Please let us know if it crashes or not.
At this point, our best guess is that Drextee can't access the SMS inbox on your phone.
Once again thank you very much and sorry for the inconvenience!

Hi Lohtse,
Do you mean it works after rebooting your phone or your watch?
We had a lengthy discussion about this issue today. It is possible that your phone OS kills the service which was started by Drextee. When you open Drextee on your watch, it tries to restart the service on your phone, but somehow it fails. Can you kindly do the following experiment and tell us what happens?
- Before opening the app on your watch, tap on the Drextee icon on your phone to open it. Then, open the app on your watch and see if it crashes.
Once again sorry for the inconvenience!

if it was the phone then My partner would have the SAME issue with her Xiaomi NOTE 2 and Zenwatch.
As to working it will work fro a short period after I reboot phone then will Force Close.
Now your experiment. It FC's but after SEVERAL attempt it opens(PHONE APP).... open on watch and then have to wait several minutes and if am lucky it refreshs the inbox....
"This application is not compatible with any of your devices" this is what I get in Google Play Store. I am using stock 6.0.1 firmware on Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and stock firmware 6.0.1 on Sony Smartwatch 3.

Hi Sapiora,
We do support Samsung Galaxy Note 4, but the app cannot be downloaded from Bulgaria. The reason is that we don't support Bulgarian alphabet at the moment, hence the restriction. Sorry for the inconvenience and sorry that Google Play Store error message is not clear. I will contact you once when we add support for Bulgarian alphabet.
Thank you very much. I will expect that.

Hi Lohtse,
Thank you very much for doing the experiment! Although you and your partner have the same type of phone, the settings and the versions of libraries running on two phones might be different.
We have been trying to roost cause the bug, but no luck so far. We have released a new version. Please let us know if by any chance it fixes your problem.
We apologize for the inconvenience!

Well this the latest version is a little useless... been installed over 15 hours and never shown a text when its arrived nor does the inbox display ANYTHING either.. It is BLANK and refreshing does nothing!
Have uninstalled and reinstalled and same issues as mention in this and last post.. Partner now has SAME issues and hers was working fine before(as stated earlier)

seems deleting app cache and date then uninstalling and reinstalling corrects the issue

How can i enable the "Nearby places" in the stock dialer app?

Hi all,
I recently bought the Xiaomi a1 ,which is great phone so far.
For some reason, the stock dialer app is not including the option of searching for businesses (aka "nearby places") by searching in the text field of the app.
Do someone know how it can be enabled there?
Thanks.

Magisk + Google Framework module + Google Dialer app from Google Play

Just install the attached Google dialer (no root) and give the permissions to access the location.
The "nearby places" works just fine and also the caller ID picture works.

Anyone know what this is App preview messages

Under settings/Google services and preferences/app preview
What does this do and is it needed on or off
Any possibility it has to do with the SMS issue the z2 has ?

This feature allows to receive messages from others using applications which might not even be installed on your device e.g. your friend has google allo installed and you don't have it, he can still send you message and you will receive it as a notification. I believe this is a standard google feature available on Android MM and above devices and have nothing to do with messaging issue on z2.

Text Messages can't be forwarded

I had been using samsung handsets upto note 8 but this time on new s9 in which there is a problem in text message forwarding as only two options are available on long pressing it as either "delete" or "details" ...
plz any solution to it....
has to be an issue with yours. Mine, long pressing gives me the following options, Delete, Copy Text, Forward, Share, Star Message, Send to Reminder, Copy to SIM Card, and View Message Details.
Yeah..me having same issue
If message is from banking or other commercial site..it has no option of copying. E.g. messages from AD-HDFC etc.
Messages from regular number has all options
This is annoying
How to get over this
SAMSUNG is screwing things .
yeah group messages don’t have all options and it is very irritating.....

I downloaded from apk mirror. I'm rooted so I updated myself.
When I try to forward a message to additional members in a group the phone doesn't allow me to choose from the group. What gives? It only shows contacts and not the group option. I have a group with 60 people.

Why does Xiaomi recommend to replace the default Xiaomi SMS app by Google SMS app?

Hi there,
I am a user from Russia using Xiaomi phone. This morning I received a notification from, seemingly, Xiaomi with recommendation to switch over to Google SMS app from original Xiaomi SMS service. The reason I've decided to create this thread is because once I had installed the Google SMS app as default I ran the Xiaomi security scan which brought up a security breach notification for SMS service. The latter notification seems to contradict the earlier one: if Xiaomi wanted its users to switch from one app to the other, then how come that Xiaomi security app does not approve the changes such replacement would cause ? So I would appreciate your comments. Thanks.
Best regards.
