Clear Data Button Greyed Out [SOLVED] - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

Hi I'm on MIUI 11 Android 10 fully stock with latest updates to all apps. I did a factory reset 5 minutes ago and setup everything as I normally do. I disabled all ads and unnecessary hidden analytics etc.
The problem right now is Clear Data Button is greyed out for all apps. And all apps in the app manager show 0b storage usage. Every single app shows 0b storage used even though I know some apps like Call of Duty use over 1Gb.
When I just did the reset the button was fine. But the moment I finish customizing the buttons go grey and storage shows 0b.
I am not rooted so there's no way I'm deleting a system app. Is it some setting that I'm changing somewhere? Please help me, I don't want to Factory Reset again.
EDIT : PROBLEM SOLVED
I found the solution by checking one setting at a time. The culprit was the Security app. If you disable USAGE ACCESS to the SECURITY app the bug occurs.

and how did you fixed it. because re enableing permission not solved my issues

and how did you fixed it. because re enableing permission not solved my issues

Make sure you change back the usage access specifically.

For those wondering where "usage access" is in settings, under "privacy protection", "special permissions", then "usage access".
Or you can just search for "usage access" in the settings app.
This info is true at least for Mi 11, MIUI version 12.5.4 EEA.

Thanks a lot @Alrich and @seemebreakthis ^^

I had the same problem. I too dissable a lot of background processes in a lot of apps. But when it gives problems then it's difficult to find out which settings gave trouble. Solution told by you fixed my issue. Thankyou.

Android force close loop (with phone access)?

Hello,
I have a problem with my samsung galaxy s2 GT-I9100
running android 2.3.5 stock version.
I'm normal user who used the phone for basic function like making phone calls and using the google, facebook apps with some installed apps from the play store.
Today, 2 hours ago logsprovider initiated out of nowhere an endless loop of "force close" alerts, between them most of the running apps were closed too (including some weird z7... app).
Because of the interval (about half a second) between alerts I can goto setting -> apps -> and "clear data" in the logsprovider config.
this stops the "force close" alerts loop untill the next restart of the phone. in this state I basically don't have access to the phone features and all the home screens are empty, including the phone's apps menu.
I can run any app by adding it to the home screen and then executing it, if the app has system operation like the play store that require it to install something, the app will crash and no new programs will install.
I can also connect the phone to a computer and get access to all the files (I think it's just those on storage), I might try to get an apk of an antivirus there and try to install it - hope it doesn't crash
These are desprate times... thats why I'm contacting the experts,
1. Can I fix this, this might have been caused by an app, what to do?
2. If the only solution is factory reset how do I backup the data, apps, or contact lists?

How remove the daily annoying notification of the MIUI Update in the status bar?

We have some Note 4X Phones in use. Generally, we are satisfied. But this daily and recurrent notification, which is showing in the status bar (in the drop down notifications), is not acceptable.
Of course, we have disabled all settings in the Updater App, which are possible for disabling.
As long as the 8.5.8.0 is not as good as the 8.2.10.0, and as long the 8.5.8.0 has bugs, we are not able to update. Therefore it is no solution to do what the Updater want to do. Also all solutions which require a rooting are not practicable, because due security reasons, rooting is not allowed.
Try this, go to settings>apps>Updater>Show notification and disable all possible

Ah ok sorry I did not read, then try disabling the data network momentarily, then in the update settings, deselect auto update, then go to the applications and empty the updater cache.

Thank you very much for your help.
Unfortunately, I have already disabled "auto updates" in the "Updater App". But this was no improvement.
In the meantime I've tried a second setting, but also without success:
I'm here: Security App - > Data Usage - > Restrict Data Usage - > System. Here I've disabled the "Updater App".
But all Apps here are listed in the column "Mobile". Now, this means, the disabling only works during a mobile data connection. Therefore, the disabling will not valid during a WLAN session.
The second indication is, that in the following path: "Security App - > Data Usage - > Restrict Data Usage" there exists not only the menu "System". The second selectable menu here is "Installed". Under the menu "Installed" there are listed many apps. And here are exists two different columns. One column is called "WLAN", the other column is called "Mobile". And all apps are listed in both columns. The reason is that the users have the choice to restrict data either for "WLAN" or for "Mobile".
But the bad thing is that in the menu "System" there only exists the column "Mobile".
Now, how can I restrict the data for the Security App also for a WLAN connection?
But as I described above, anyway this solution also doesn't work - if anything, than only with a mobile connection.
But principally, the aim isn't to restrict data, the goal is how to avoid the notification of that stupid "Updater App"?
Has anyone a working solution for me?

Were you able to find any solution? I am facing this exact issue and it's really infuriating
Force stop the app and dismiss the notification
And don't open the update settings again
You could try disabling the Updater application with ADB.
Get ADB & fastboot here from XDA from this link, install it on a computer.
Then, enable Developer options. Go to Settings -> About device and tap MIUI version a few times until it says they've been enabled.
Now go to Settings -> Additional Settings -> Developer options and enable USB debugging.
Connect the phone to the computer, type 'adb devices' without the quotation marks and make sure the phone is detected. The phone will pop up a notice to confirm you trust the computer.
Now, type 'pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.updater' without the quotation marks. This will disable the built-in Updater app, removing any notifications coming from it.
This does not require root.
Just use Titanium Backup and freeze Updater app.
It will not show anything until you run it manually, or you restart phone.

This is the best solution, it helped me.
You can map your back button with long press to force close any app. If you mapped it, just open updater and long press the back button. It will close updater app and dismiss its notification. It will only come up again if you manually open the Updater app again and search for updates.
Also its not necessary to map the nav keys
Just hold the app window from recent apps view to get app info and hit force close button at bottom.
any one tried xezrunner's solution? any good? I hate this notification crap that mi has foisted on all of us.

On my phone, the 3Gb Global Version, some MiUi app can't be frozen, including updater.apk (MiUi 9.2.1.0).
Coming back to this topic, I made a backup of the aforementioned apk with Titanium. Would it be safe to uninstall it completely or should I go the ADB route? I'm asking because the case happened to me once with another phone where the system wouldn't be the same despite the backup-restore by Titanium.

You could uninstall but make sure to backup it first in case you run into some issues, personally i'd just freeze it. (it will appear as uninstalled until phone restart)

correct me if im worng, titanium backup freezing function only works if you have paid version.
Maybe you don't have that.
try it with some other app like Lucky Patcher, that app isn't primarily for freezing aplication but it have option under tools to freeze packages. Just be careful to not play around with other tools if don't know what it used for.

Mate 10 Pro - broken notificattions

Hi guys, I have serious issue with my Mate 10 Pro. I started to notice, that my phone is not notificating me about new e-mails (gmail and outlook apps), new messages (hangouts) or reminders (to-do app). I Googled everything about this but nothing helped. I set background apps to "manage manually" and turned on "Ignore battery optimisation". I have also locked the apps in multitasking and added widgets to home screen. Nothing helped.
Also I have noticed that during the night all apps are gone from multitasking. What is going on? I never had such issue with any Android phone or tablet before.
Can anybody help me please?

Your problem is very likely being caused by Huawei's by-default aggressive battery optimisations.
There are two sections of settings to look at in fixing this;
1. To stop critical (to you) apps being forcibly closed, go to SETTINGS -> BATTERY -> LAUNCH, change your selected apps from "automatic" to "manual" and make sure "Run in Background" is enabled for them.
2. To allow critical (to you) apps to continue running with the screen off, go to SETTINGS -> APPS & NOTIFICATIONS -> APPS -> SETTINGS -> SPECIAL ACCESS -> BATTERY OPTIMISATION, change "Not Optimised" to "All" at the top of the screen, then set your critical apps to "Not Optimised."
It's a true pain that it's a two-fold process in different sections of the settings and that they're so tedious to get to, but once you've discovered where they are, it (sort of) makes sense.

Have you checked that the app has notification permissions? SETTINGS -> APPS & NOTIFICATIONS -> NOTIFICATIONS MANAGEMENT
This is admittedly a far stretch as by default all apps should have notification permissions, but it's worth a try - and unfortunately is the only remaining idea I have.

Yes, did that too. Even set those apps to priority. I guess I will really have to try that factory reset. What also bothers me is, that sometimes I want to unlock the phone (fingerprint or button) I hear the unlock sound, but the phone lights up like 5 seconds later.

I doubt that the factory reset will help you. Well, at least with the to-do app reminders part. As I've described in my post (https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/help/local-notifications-t3737241), almost any to-do app fails to show the reminders (all possible optimization turned off, all permissions given), and it either has smth to do with our firmware, or with the apps not being adopted for the Oreo (some noticeable changes in notification API).
But if his phone takes 5 seconds to wake up, something is seriously wrong. I would highly recommend a factory reset if for nothing else than fixing the 5 second wake up time.
i have the same issue with almost all apps that i am using
did everything in google and still no luck
not sure is it app issue , huawei , android .... me ?
common i dont want to open and check all apps all the day to see if there is update or not just push it to me as soon as it get .
Same here, I have BLA-L09 8.0.0.128 (C432). I've tried all battery and notifications settings and I've also factory reset my phone. Google now does not update news, Gmail does not notify new emails, 3rd party widgets do not refresh, and the app for my car does not sync via Bluetooth (I have to remove the the BT profile and create it again to sync 1 time then stops)
I had the same problem with my previous phone (samsung note 3). It turned out to be due to IPv6 being enabled. Have you tried disabling it?

Because its preinstalled app. Anyway both settings doesn't works. I'm selling this peace of **** phone because it has no use anymore. Worst phone ever.
Can't get notifications from most of apps. So why do I need a smartphone like this...
And even battery, doesn't lasts full day from the time I wake up, till I go to sleep. so Huawei is the last phone I ever bought.
so is there any chance to have this issue fixed ?
by update perhaps , can we contact them or complain so they notice ?
i really search about phones before i buy it and choosed this one from the e specs and reviews
but i didnt expect there is a (SMART)PHONE would have a problem like this at all it is unbelievable
and i dont want to sell it .. just want this issue to be fixed
Just a thought...I read here and elsewhere that putting widgets on your home screen helps notifications comes through due to the fact that the widget keeps the apps open. I did this with my Honor Note 8 and, along with the other bits of advice above, got most of my notifications to work.

Is it by chance Google Assistant or just the Google App? Can you post a screenshot of the advertisement your seeing?
If in doubt try factory data resetting the phone. I would suggest this combined with an antivirus/malware scanner (at the very least the latter if you don't plan on factory resetting the phone). A factory data reset basically resets everything back to default and removes all your apps. Set your phone backup, install some sort of antimalware/antivirus app and then pay particular attention to what apps you install. If the issue happens again take note of what apps you installed last/recently (cuz they might be the cause).
Don't do factory reset,download Malwarebytes eecurity,u will get 1 month free,then choose "use deep scanner during full scan" from the settings,it will detect and kill the malware nd adware
Chack the apps with an "overlay permisson"
Got it fixed had running Malwarebytes and Samsung owns antivirus both got nothing, i cleaned Google cache, reset their app data, removed few apps and its gone thankfully, have no idea where it would come.
The picture attached is "Estonian language" but yeah it would close my apps and show the add when I click show recent apps shows "Google play services" and then it immediately deletes itself.

EMUI 9.1 update - all notifications late or not appearing

I know this is a topic existing over internet, I've googled it extensively, but up to now I haven't found a solution.
I've got a non-pro Mate 10, the Chinese version AL-00, rebranded to International/Global ALP L-29.
Approximately two to three weeks ago I got an update from 9 to EMUI 9.1, and maybe a week later, another update as a security patch. The current version of the software is 9.1.0301 (C636E2R1P12).
After the system update, I normally updated all the apps that needed updating and cleaned the phone's cache from bootloader. And although now I once again receive notifications from Google play when an app needs updating (I stopped receiving those a while back for an unknown reason), I stopped receiving notifications for virtually any messaging service or social network, including Gmail app.
To be more specific, when using Gmail, Facebook Messenger, Viber, Whatsapp LinkedIn or some other, I do not get notified of new messages/posts/emails whatever, UNLESS I am using the phone at that particular moment, or unless I am using that specific app at that moment. That also applies for my bank's custom app which should normally notify me instantly as soon as some expense occurs on my card. A few times it even happened that I would receive and reply to a FB message, close the app and like an hour later would receive a notification that that specific person messaged me.
This only started happening after that last update.
I tried turning off battery optimization for each and every single of those apps, I tried switching App launch to manual. It literally makes no difference. Force stopping and cleaning the cache of the apps doesn't help as well.
While I could live with it when it comes to FB or LinkedIn, I cant have Gmail or FB Messenger holding my messages for so long without notifying me. I need them for my work and sometimes time is of the utmost essence.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated
EDIT: I just noticed that I'm having same problems with Google Keep app when using reminders

Do you have root? Try freezing powergenie app, it should allow the notifications to come on time. The only issue is there might be a "slight" battery drain from more apps allowed to run in background. That was a dirty fix that worked even in emui 8/9 and peps seemed to have no issues even after the mod.
Since emui 9.1 introduces erofs file system, you'll have to either freeze the app in question everytime you reboot or create magisk module that during boot replaces contents of /system/app/HwPowerGenieEngine3 with empy folder - I'm not sure how removing odex files affects the thermals so I suggest just removing apk file and keeping everything else from the original directory intact if the temps and phone performance behave odly after doing this.
Feel free to give it a try, but I don't think it's actually worth doing it. The old forum post suggesting this mod actually overlooked the importance of power genie when it comes to temps + performance regulations across the board. Without it the temps will rise, phone won't supercharge and the performance will dip.
I'm actually playing around with this rn, trying to remove thermal limits on per app basis, if I come across anything I'll let ya know. Good luck
Have you made test on both mobile network and on WLAN? And what provider do you use with this phone? I see OP1 and VIP in your profile, probably outdated.

Yep I did, sometimes switching between WiFi and mobile network does activate the apps to check for new messages/mail, and sometimes it doesn't. I haven't noticed any clear pattern.
And it must be difference between XDA forums and the app. I swear I switched it when I bought the Mate. But I'm still on VIP/A1
@neverone, go to Settings > Battery > More battery settings and switch on the option Stay connected when device sleeps. I didn't see you mention this somewhere, I switch this on after every factory reset.

No I haven't, but now that I checked, it was turned on all the time. However, knowing that sometimes this actually works, I toggled it off and back on several times and restarted the phone. I'll pay closer attention during the day to see if that helped and report back here. Thanks for the suggestion.
I too have this issue in my M10Pro specially in messenger. sometimes the chat icon doesn't appear even if i have an unread message.

Here's an update: Turning off and on the "Stay connected" option did not help at all, the real proof is that i received an email notification of cheeze.keyk replying to this thread, and I only saw it when I logged in on my PC. The phone did not notify me at all.
So the problem still persists, unfortunately. I am really hoping that I won't have to make a factory reset, although it is also uncertain if that would help at all.
totally bummed. my Mate 10 Pro screen just went crazy. It now has a bright green line all across the very bottom of the screen. And the whole screen now has a faint "screen door" effect going on. just enough to be irritating. I doubt I can live with it, but I loved this phone.

I'm sorry that you're experiencing such issues, but I don't see the link between your issues, and the issues we're discussing here.
agreed. wrong thread. sorry
@neverone, another idea. Have you frozen some system apps, especially Google Play Services? Or maybe disabled in battery app launch or turned on battery optimization for Google Play Services and Google Services Framework?

These two screenshots show show which apps I have frozen/disabled and which of the Google based apps have and don't have battery optimisation activated.
This essentially hasn't changed since I bought the phone over a year ago. Do you think I should do something with these apps or change some of their settings?
Send also the complete screenshot of Settings > Battery > App launch > Three dots > Manage manually.
Did you restrict background data maybe? Settings > Wireless & networks > Data usage > Network access > in upper drop down menu switch to Advanced network settings > Tick all apps on both installed and system apps list.
And the last question, do you use Smart Data Saver? Settings > Wireless & networks > Data usage > Smart Data Saver

Here you go, attached. Hope you'll be able to read all the apps ?

Nope, all processes have an unrestricted background data ?

Nope, data saver has been turned off and moreover, most of the apps seem to be ticked as an exception if it ever gets turned on
Hope that you put all checkmarks on Google Play Services and all other apps you have notifications problem.
Well as you can see, considering Google's apps, all is good.
I mean this one in Settings > Battery > App launch > Three dots > Manage manually, have a look on attachment.
So, my Email client, Google Play services, Moj Telekom, Viber and WhatsApp have set all three options: auto-launch, secondary launch and run in background. With this setup, I have no problems at all.
