Has anyone else had issues with Google Play breaking with this phone? (All ROMs) - Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Questions & Answers

I've been having the strangest issue with this phone, nonstop. No matter what ROM I use (so far including LOS, Resurrection Remix, Xiaomi.EU and MIUI Global) the Play Store seems to go haywire for no reason. I'm rooted with Magisk, but I don't have any modules installed that seems like they could cause an issue (just Youtube Vanced). I even tried stopping using Detach and ad-blockers, no dice. I'm not doing anything different than I did on the old Note 3 I just upgraded from, and I never had this issue there.
The Play Store just comes up blank. All the section headers are there, but there's nothing in them. If I search for any app, I just get "No results found". And when I look at my list of apps, only a small handful show. Other times, it'll come up, but then a whole lot of apps will be missing from the store, and getting to them other ways (from a google search in a web browser for instance) gives "This app is isn't compatible with your device anymore." And sometimes it'll just come up, work normally for a minute, then freeze.
In all cases, wiping the Play Store's data and cache fixes it and it goes back to working normally... for a little while. But when this happens three or four times a day, it starts to get annoying. Anybody have any ideas?

Edit: Okay, I'm pretty sure it was Detach (2.7). Even after uninstalling the module and clearing the Play Store's data, the issue persisted, but on a completely clean flash that's never had Detach, it doesn't seem to happen.

Maybe try to flash another version of the Gapps, stock is probably the best choice.

Recurrent Sign-in Error

Hey,
Does anyone keep getting Google sign-in errors on their Razr HD? It started a couple of weeks back, and now a few times every day, this pops up. Mainly when using Chrome, I think.
Any ideas what the cause could be?

can't see your screenshot, so don't know what your actual error is but I have never had any issues with google services.
Are you on stock firmware or custom i.e. CM, Slim etc..?

Hey,
I'll give it a go, but my icons aren't white as you can see in the screenshot. I am not actually losing connection to servers, just keep getting that stupid error message
Cheers,
Su
I'm getting that same exact error whenever I use Chrome. Hope someone can offer a solution to this. Not really a huge problem, but it is very annoying.
Jigz, are you on Chrome Beta by any chance? Perhaps that's the problem?
try to sign in another google account then switch back to the previous account this might help

[Q] Is anyone else's phone forgetting defaults?

Every day, I have to reset the default application for everything on my phone. Even if I check "ALWAYS" after selecting a particular app, the phone forgets the default after each reboot, and then prompts me again.
For example, when I open a video in my gallery, I get the prompt below. MX Player is already highlighted, and I click "ALWAYS." Now all of my videos in the gallery open in MX Player, but after a reboot, I get asked this question again. Please don't tell me this is normal behavior on Galaxy devices.

*edit* - Another example: I keep turning off Samsung's keyboard and Swipe and a couple others, but every time I reboot, those keyboards are ticked on again! Why!!!
Funny you mention that
My phone has been doing the same thing of late and it is very annoying. It started when I rooted my phone however I think that wasn't the cause because as far as I can remember at first it was alright but when I installed su too system and I installed twrp and partitioned internal memory that's when it started but I could be wrong.a fix would be great

I'm also rooted. My friends, who are not rooted, are not having this problem. And I've gotten barely any traction in my posts about this on various sites -- likely because it's not a pervasive issue. It's become so annoying that I'm considering unrooting the phone for the time being.

Contacts keep closing

Hi Everyone. I got a new account but I've visited this site lots of times now in about 4 years.
First of all, I would like to thank all the developers here especially to Tkkg1994 for developing the superstock rom on the galaxy s7.
I have installed it on my phone and works great! I would like to ask if anyone else is encountering this problem on this ROM? The samsung contacts app(stock) keeps crashing if I go to "settings". I wanted to export my contacts from here.
I have tried reinstalling about 8 times now with different options and settings (tried stock kernel, tried superstock kernel, tried installing all samsung and google apps, tried with/without adblocker, tried with/without busybox). Would appreciate any help or info on this. Thanks XDA!
Regards,

Looking for a fix.
I also noticed after the recent update that my contacts keep closing when trying to enter the settings. Wondering what it is and looking forward to a solution.
Did you get this fixed?
I fixed it by manually installing a newer Samsung Contacts app. Just Google "Samsung Contacts apk", download a newer version (I downloaded the latest 3.1 that was newer than what was on my phone).
Drop the apk in /system/priv-app/SamsungContacts80, set the permissions on the new file to RW-R--R--, add an underscore to the end of the old original Samsung Contacts file so that you have a backup of the original file that is not used, then reboot.
Voila! Everything is fixed.
Clean app data

Samsung Galaxy S7 G930A AT&T Unlocked Android/Google Corrupted/Missing...HELP!!!

So I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 G930A that is having serious issues. The other day it was working fine, now it seems everything Google related is disappearing from phone. Under application manager, under system apps, it still shows the com.android.vending. However, it's a grayed out icon with Android man on it and bottom right of icon shows/says "SD" on it. Google Play Store, Music, Books, and etc. it's all just gone icon wise. I DO NOT want to factory reset and lose all my data. See, messages have been coming in too, but can't see them/access them because of whatever issue is going on. And a popup will apear that messages has stopped working. I downloaded the APKs for:
Google Services Framework (com.google.android.gsf_6.0.1-23_minAPI23(nodpi).apk),
Google Play Store (com.android.vending_17.8.14-all_0_PR_283242051-81781400_minAPI16(armeabi,armeabi-v7a,mips,mips64,x86,x86_64)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk),
Google Play Services (com.google.android.gms_19.8.29_(040700-282600551)-19829022_minAPI23(x86)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk).
I've tried installing those, and Play Store will open and say updating google apps...but then popup will appear saying Goole Play Services stopped working. I've tried installing those, and then rebooting the phone, and they just go away. Once I restarted the phone, under device settings under personal, the Google tab is gone to show the settings for phone, as is the option to add a Google account from the accounts tab (see attached image below). So does anyone know why my phone is doing this and how to fix it? Like I mentioned earlier, I don't want to do a factory reset. Is there code I can modify to fix this?

It's all good now. Was asking for a friend and they went ahead and just factory reset.

Samsung Free stuck on "rejoin"

Getting fedup of trying to sort this by myself as Samsung Tech are nothing short of useless.
When Samsung Free updated to the latest version with the TV included I started getting the message I need to wait until "the leave process" has been completed and can take "up to 1 day". Well two weeks later (14 days!!!!!) it's still not resolved. Posted on Samsung Members and a few others have the same problem.
I have tried the following
1. Force stopped and unistalled updates. Free then works but keeps bugging for the update, once updated then same message.
2. Tried no 1 again and pressed "leave Free" which worked but once updated same issue.
3. Reset app preferences
4. Removed Samsung account from the phone and once the account was back then same message
5. Same problem on my tab s6 which I have now deactivated Samsung Free.
Any ideas apart from using Microsoft Launcher or Nova

Sammy tech support sucks worse than a Bronx hooker
Try clearing system cache.
Clearing data in all related apps.
Factory load on all Samsung junk.
Clear Google Play Services data (just for good measure)
Inversely try updating Sammy apps from the Galaxy Store only not Playtore.
Reboot, reboot, reboot...
Make sure you haven't disabled a needed parent app.
Turn off all power management... destroyer of worlds.
Replace with a 3rd party app or wait for Sammy to fix it... eventually... maybe.
