Google backup? - Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers

Anyone got Google Backup working? I'm 10.2.22.0 China and when I go to Settings->Additional Settings->Backup and reset->Google account->Back up now, it spins for awhile then at the bottom it shows a notification for a sections of "Can't backup now. Try again later". I'm on 4 days of "later" now and a bit concerned.

Working fine on Global Stable 10.2.9.0

CM 6 and issues....

So who's done the leap and updated to CM 6?
Here's what I noticed, and I've be curious if anyone else has too.
1/ Apps2SD: Not quite sure what they are doing but there is some sort of method that uses 'moved to SD Card' but it seems that noone is calling it Apps2SD. It essentially does the same and seemingly working on my phone but my internal memory is down to 31.74MBs.
2/ The Email App (NOT to be confuse with GMail). Under 5.0.7 it worked just fine. Under 6 it will receive and I can read emails but I cannot reply. When I hit reply I get taken back to the list of emails I received.
3/ I'm using a new GApps Set:

Gmail works but Maps does not. It opens to the grey grid then closes. It's like the GPS wasn't turning on but it is turned on.
For this, I'm gonna go back to the other GApps set and see if that fixes this annoying issue.

Well, installing the old GApps set didn't work....it was acting like I did click on 'install anyzup from SDcard" in the recovery menu....oh well, reinstalled the newest suggested set and I'm back to where I was. GMail working but no Maps.
For those who can understand logs:

I'm going to try a fix_permissions but I am rather loath to do so...last time ir broke a bunch of other things which ended up in a re-flash.....well, here goes nearly lost hope....
Yeah...shoulda known....fix_permissions just seems to break things...

Phone rebooted after it finished booting up and I hadn't touched a thing.
It booted up and stayed the 2nd time but couldn't get into my wireless settings to tell it to connect to my provider without a FC.

Sigh...back to wiping and reinstalling again....maybe I will go back to 4.2....

Phone acting super weird 2 day after upgrading to 4.1.6

Start from the beginning. Back a few weeks ago, when 4.1.5 was leaked but not officially announced, I downloaded 4.1.5 and flashed it through TWRP. Then 4.1.6 was released officially right after I've done my upgrading. So I CLEAN FLASHED 4.1.6 again on my phone.
Now the weird part: after 2 days of normal use (no flashing, no new apps installed), I left my phone charging today while went asleep. After I woke up, my phone is at 15% of battery. Although connect to the DASH charger, the phone doesn't charge at all with its LED showing red.
More weird is I can't open the notification center. I can pull the 5 toggles down, but can't open the whole menu.
Plus, notifications don't show up (no toast notification, no icons while in the homepage either).
My access to developer options is also blocked (says "Developer options is not available to this user").
The home button, recent apps button DOESN'T work - no matter if u switch the buttons in settings, or toggle the on-screen soft buttons. Although the "return" button and the fingerprint sensor DOES work.
Root access is still there (using Magisk).
While using TitaniumBackup, the app warns "This device's Android ID has changed". And a few apps have logged themselves out (I guess because of the ID change).
I think I can solve the problem by simply factory reset it. But Questions is : what's going on with my phone?
Its a common, not so common issue. I had exactly that same issue twice on two different fones. My old xperia L and my oneplus one. In my particular case, this was triggered when my settings were automatically restored from my google account (apps auto download, wifi settings, display settings etc.) After a factory reset.
After this, android id "crashes" showing that it has been changed, and statusbar only allows one pull down, along with the others bugs you described.
You should not allow google account to restore your settings (or at least that worked out for me) and restore manually your data. (Especially your display settings).
Hope it helps, i thought i was the only one.

Wow! I can't image someone had the same issue. So i actually re-flashed 4.1.6 and it's working.
But the charging problem persists. I've tried multiple power sources from the room, the kitchen, etc. None seem to be working.
Strangely, I was able to charge the device once a few hours ago at evening. And then it stopped charging again after I got the system working.
Any idea?

Phone does not connect to android auto head unit

It's been months of on and off again trying to figure this out, still no luck.
I'm running the latest version of Lineage OS.
I'm running the latest download of OpenGAPPs
I'm using a cable that works with my wife's stock moto x4, but does not with mine.
When I connect my phone, I assume android auto tries to start, black screen, then crash back to launcher. My head unit displays "unsupported device"
When i pull down the shade to select a different usb mode, it always reverts back to "no data transfer". Clicking on anything will move the dot, then immediately go back to "no data transfer"
I've tried several troubleshooting guides, I've cleared data and cache for AA, Google, and Play Services.
I'm open to all suggestions.

I thought that was a known Lineage bug. I could never get Android Auto working on Lineage, so I rolled back to stock.
Edit: Here's the open bug https://gitlab.com/LineageOS/issues/android/issues/397

Interesting. I knew it was an issue for me. not much other talk about it over on reddit for this phone (that i could find). what little i did find was to the tune of "open gapps was messed up from x to y, try installing an updated gapps after y." and that took months for me to do because for the longest time lineage's recovery was messed up, so i figured i'd just check back every now and then. Finally realized recovery was working and here i am. guess I'll go back to stock. Thanks.
Android Auto appears to be working flawlessly after May update of Pixel Experience 10 rom.

Strange Netflix Playstore Update

Just got my 9T Pro, everything seems to be fine, all working well and have received a couple of system updates since I received it. There is one strange thing with Netflix. If I go into PlayStore and check for updates it indicates that there is an update for Netflix but it's only 2.9 MB large. If I click on the update it seems to download something but nothing installs and it goes back to indicating there is a Netflix update. If I close out completely from PlayStore and go back in, the first time I check for updates it says there are none. If I refresh, then the 2.9MB update appears again. I've also done a delete and re-install but no effect, problem comes back.
The version of Netflix that is installed is Version 7.40.0 build 20 34657. In addition, it seems to work fine.
It's not a big deal, cause Netflix works but I've never seen this behaviour before.
Any ideas or thoughts?
The problem with NetFlix went away, all was fine for a few weeks and now I get a 77kb download for Instagram that never installs. Just keeps failing. Any ideas as to how to fix this? I've restarted but nothing.
It is a Play Store bug that causes to loop some apps' updates. Try cleaning app cache but it will go away after few weeks.
