Same here...
I have the same issue running the current beta 5.8.27. Only Google apps are affected. Very strange....

Im having the same problem on miui 5.9.17

Same here

I have denied access to location for many apps, almost all that were asking (focusing on better battery life), maybe that could be the reason
Does anyone have had the same issue?

Now I have not had any major GPS issues but sometimes when I quit my Google Maps app it looses GPS signal and it does not regain it until I re-load the app from fresh

Are you on Miui 7 developer ROM?

Yes, the china version 5.9.17

Hi,
I found myself in the same situation. Brand new Mi4C, latest stable firmware and Google Maps is not even activating GPS (toolbar symbol missing). Other apps like OruxMaps or GPSTest worked immediately.
I found the solution here:
http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=redirect&goto=findpost&ptid=182587&pid=3438377
Turns out that while Google Maps may have enough permissions, the Google Play Services and Google Services Framework also need permission to "Get location info".
So, open MIUIs Security app and check the permissions of those three apps.
For me, the Google Play Services had a red cross (deny) for the get location info permission.
After changing it and restarting Google Apps, the location icon immediately appeared in the toolbar and Maps showed my location.
I'm not sure where the red cross came from. Maybe - during installation - it requested the location and I hit deny because why would it need it..
Anyway, hope this helps.

It still doesn't work for me

I too am experiencing the same issues, not with one, but have tried two brand new Redmi Note3 mobiles (Amazon was good enough to replace my first mobile even when my replacement/refund window was almost over). But both sets have same problem (Again Amazon is kind enough to refund my money, but I really wanted to keep this set if only it worked ok).
Many apps are able to find GPS location, but Google Plus, Mi Browser and some other less known apps are not able to find GPS available to them (even all permissions are fully ok with them).
I even contacted Xiaomi on this, but what they all asked me was to visit their service center which is some 225 KMs away from me (whole Punjab state has only 1 or 2 Xiaomi Service Centers).
Check the following screen shots showing the permissions (as instructed by Xiaomi) and also video links which I've recorded, one for faulty RMN3 and other for the same app on Micromax (this shows how G+ location is expected to work if there was no fault).
Pls find the youtube video links in the end.

Disappearing home icons/widgets, spotify music and contacts on MI5 Pro

My wife got her new MI5 Pro on Saturday. Since then she's been having all sorts of issues which we feel are probably related.
She installed the Google Play Launcher and gave it auto start permissions etc. She also installed Spotify and downloaded music for use offline, as well as installing the "Nine" email client which she's used for ages on her old phone. The following morning she noticed missing home icons/widgets, offline music had gone and not all of her contacts from Nine were showing in the inbuild Contact App.
We've done some digging around. Initially I turned off the scheduled cleaner in the security app, thinking this was the culprit but the following morning the above items were gone again. She let me know yesterday that she'd found a post somewhere saying to turn off the Mi backup, which she did. This morning I got a message from her saying the stuff had disappeared again and she thinks the backup has run again despite her turning it off (I'm working away so can't see the phone).
These issues, combined with the Android Pay not working (all card readers say "unsupported card type") means the first 5 days with the phone have been nothing but frustration and it's likely to end up being launched through a window.
Has anyone any ideas?

Are they being uninstalled or made invisible/hidden?
Have you tried with a different launcher at all?

The icons are simply being removed from the home screen, and the Spotify downloads disappearing.
Still no luck with android pay either, which she's annoyed about as she bought this phone as people said android pay was working.
When I get home I'll see how she's got on.

Sorry, I honestly thought I'd put that in my post. She's on global stable 7.5.2.0 (MAAMIDE)
Sent from my P9000 using Tapatalk

We've found the cause of the missing icons, music etc.
In settings, additional settings, backup and reset there is an option called local backup which was running at 02:30 every day. She's just manually run the backup job and immediately all the aforementioned items disappeared.
She's now disabled the auto backup and we'll see what happens in the morning, but it looks good so far.
This, from what she's described, is different from the Mi backup that she disabled yesterday (which didn't fix the issue)
Now all we need to do is fix Android pay and she'll be happy

Good news,
Is her bootloader unlocked? As this will stop Android Pay from working I believe. Or are you saying she can get the cards on to the Android Pay app but when she tries to use it in a shop it's not working?

Bootloader is not unlocked. Running stock 7.5.2.0 global stable.
She's added the card ok, and got a letter off the bank confirming it's activated, but it doesn't work when she tries to pay.
When she used it Sunday the payment terminal said "unsupported card type". When she tried it today she said she just got two beeps from the terminal.

Just tried again and the card reader gives a double beep (instead of the long beep I get with my contactless card)

Same problem with Mi Mix2 with Google launcher and android 7.1
This problem is still present in both the Mix 2 and my wife's Mi Note 2.
Both fully up to date, both using Google launcher.
Both using Global Stable ROMs,
Both not modified, no root, basically stock, with only difference being the launcher.

For android pay, you should probably update to the latest ROM-version. If you don't see an update in the updater app, you can download the zip here: http://en.miui.com/download-299.html#443 , go to the updater app, click the 3 dots, click on 'choose update' and click on the file you just downloaded.

It will automatically come.
But if you want to keep your gms installed, better don't update.
After update gms install becomes impossible, and every time you successfully install it, the device will automatically reboot and uninstall it.

Hi, there! Does anyone know where I can get honor magic 3 pro plus update tracker? It's been a long time I dont get any security update and I wonder if there's something wrong. My device is running on Magic UI 6.0.0.125

No google services in an easy way for the Magic 3 pro+ yet?

Hey man.
I've been using Honor Magic 3 Pro without gms for a long time now.
Actually haven't had any problems.
Most of the apps work normally without gms, and u can install them from Aurora Store.
YouTube has Vanced Extended.
Even sign in with Google works on most apps nowadays, through Huawei browser.
For other apps Just use gbox.
It has custom version of all gms apps. That installs like a original app, and gives you full functionality.
And for apss that really require gms and standalone apps are not available from gbox, install on gbox and install a shortcut.
Use a few days and you won't even feel the lack of Gms, except on many rare occasions.
And gbox customer support is good. On WhatsApp you can contact them, and if u have the skills, you can customize any standalone app integrated with gbox, with their instructions.
And for the rare occasions that gbox glitches, like on biometrics, use gspace for those apps.
And I've even found a easy way to enable backups for WhatsApp on drive using your device.

Nope, no Android 13 update.
Yup about the smoothness, when things don't work, it won't work. Just give up, otherwise when it works, it works fine.

Question Google Pay on X90 pro+

I use gpay for all my card transactions - do I understand it correctly that it will not work on the pro+ and thus won't be able to use the phone for transactions?
That would be a total deal-breaker for me!

It does work, however google play itself will not update itself, so then google wallet stops working and you need to get google play from a third party website to update it. For wallet to work play services and play store need to be on same update level.
There's plenty of small google problems usually not mentioned, and then no one can guarantee that google doesn't require wallet to be a system app in future..
Google likely will go harder on this as many governments require them to make apps optional from Android and they could avoid it by just making them working as a system app forcing manufacturers to include them. It's a strategy google has clearly added to lately due to court decisions in various countries.
So right now it works, but with any google service on Chinese phones future versions full working gets less likely.
You can see on older vivo phones it often stopped working for some days to weeks too. Cannot count on it working though so far it mainly did.

I have Google Wallet (Google Pay) working fine for me once I enabled Google services.
Haven't had an issue with it (I'm in Australia).

No Google Pay issues for me in Singapore ( Vivo X90 Pro + (V2227A 12GB/512GB)

No problem to Greece too..i think they put it on Wonda just to be safe if its not working on someone.

is there a way to quick access the gpay screen from the phone being off(not off but locked etc)..and does one need that to be on it to make a payment? or just keep NFC on?

Did you find a way to get a quick access when the phone is locked?

I have not been able to add my bank card to Google wallet on this phone - no issues on the old phone.
This is the answer from the bank
So - is this a UK issue or just my bank picking up on issues with the phone?

No..but I realized that if my phone is unlocked through smart unlocked(while on me) all I have to do is tap the device on the machine and it works.I don't need to be in the app...
If you want to be in the app,I think there is an off screen shortcut where you can assign the app for it. It's the volume down button

Can you add your card on other phones? It sounds more like your bank doesn't support google wallet. There are plenty who don't. Nothing to do with the phone! If you can add the card to other google wallets, then the problem is with your phone.

Yes, Starling bank supports Google Wallet - I used same card and GW on my old phone

I had similar issue.maybebsimilar. I kind of changed the google play services file ..and I think the google Play store ..I went back to this forum and saw what they were using and used them. And then my card worked .

I think people having problems should throw down all google programs including play store and services from the phone and install them from scratch because it's likely due to the broken versions on vivo appstore.
Likely trading Shenzhen already installed some broke. Stuff. It just doesn't make sense otherwise. Everyone uses the same OS and hardware should not be different either except different batches.
In general don't install anything from vivo appstore to save yourself problems. Especially not Chinese apps as they are add infected from the vivo store.

Question Google play store on chinese rom

How can I install the play store on the Chinese rom? I've tried downloading it from APK mirror and it says "Couldn't sign in There was a problem communicating with Google servers. Try again later." I've tried clearing the cache and no help.
Solved! "Google basic services" has to be enabled. It's found in the drop down menu within apps management in settings.

Just install it from the ZUI Store app on the tablet. You might need to use a phone camera to help translate..

I just flashed the stock chinese rom from the global rom. I actually figured it out. There's a setting in the app management tab in the settings where you have to enable google services. I had installed play services, google play store, chrome, etc... Factory reset a few times too. But I was poking around the app management and was looking at system apps to see if something was disabled that I needed and saw "google basic services" as an option and I was able to turn that on, and everything works now. So I hope if anyone else has that issue they come across this thread.

Toggling this on and off seemed to fix an issue for me where I couldn't push the "Sign In" button to log into Google Services on the first Play Store run.
