Quick post to check if anyone has workarounds to the annoying issue where by my Mi Box is turning off when I turn the TV off.
It seems to be related to HDMI-CEC.
If HDMI-CEC is enabled on the Mi Box - I control it using my Samsung TV remote perfectly fine but regardless of whether this is on or off on the Mi Box - my TV remote seems to turn the Mi Box on or off.
Seen lots of posts about this but no obvious workarounds. Have tried developer mode and preventing sleeping etc. but still no luck. Seems as if the signal being sent from the TV to the Mi Box turns it off!
Any ideas? or custom ROM's that fix this?
Thanks

Hi,
I have this Android TV set top box from my internet and cable provider, codenamed dcn88_72604_ln, and I have one crazy issue : It crashes almost every time I use my phone (LG G7+), if both in the same network (WiFi).
I already contacted my provider but their solution is to give me replacement unit, which have the same issue, as this is my 3rd unit in just 5 days. I've tried playing games on my android tablet, browsing on my iPhone, nothing happens. Grab my G7+, open app drawer, suddenly the STB crashes. I have to unplug & plug the power cable and let it boot again.
The only solution is to turn off WiFi on the STB, but of course it lost abilities like controlling smart devices and casting videos. I also have other android TV box (Mi Box 3) but it works perfectly.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

I just got the Mix 3 coming from a Samsung S8.
I am still using mine Galaxy Watch, and when paired I actually got the screen to add it as trusted device with Google play Services, so it won't be locked as long as the watch is connected via Bluetooth, however it is not working, and in the settings, there is an option to unlock the phone with connected Bluetooth accesories but it doesn't show anything.
Any advice?

Welcome to one of the issues of MIUI.
Only option is to install custom ROM to get it to work as far as I'm aware.
With my Mi Band 2 it is working flawlessly.
Also with my LG G Watch R.
I have a Mi 9, Miui 10 with latest security update and it also has blocked non Xiaomi devices from being trusted.. a pain given that I use it as a car sat nav and streamer.

Yeah, there are reasons I use Android rather than Apple! It's a shame, because the Mix 3 hardware is outstandingly good.
Hey everyone, can you test your screen mirroring feature on your phone and tell me if it works? I can't find many bug reports about it. For me it doesn't work.
My OnePlus 6 can presently cast the screen directly to my Roku stick and Roku TV without any issues.
I bought a 7 Pro (Oxygen OS 9.5.3 GM21AA) and enabled "wireless display" and this is what happens:
- I select Cast from the drop-down notification bar
- It searches forever without finding anything
- I click Settings
- It finally finds and shows me my available Roku device (or any TV that has screen mirroring)
- I select the one I want
- It says connecting
- instead of connecting, the list of eligible devices, including the one I am connecting to goes blank
- The list gets reset and nothing is connecting
Any attempt to try again, after I reset my phone, restarted my modem and my WiFi etc gives me the same situation.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I hate when older devices work great and newer ones don't. Both are running Android 9.
No? Just me? Lol
Hi, for me it works. Chromecast, shield tv, google home or integrated cast.
BUT, there is an issue with the resolution, my tv is 1080p, source too, but I have black margins around..
@cainman
1. You must have WIFI enable to be able to use Screen Mirroring.
2. Go to Cast setting and tap the 3dots and enable it.
Been Mirroring my device my device since day 1 without problems.
I have broken Mi 49 inch LED TV (Android). The screen is completely broken, nothing is visible except white light bleeding from cracks. The TV is completely working and audio can be heard when turned on.
As this is a fully functional Android device with rich connectivity options (WiFi, Ethernet, USB) I was thinking of savaging it into some sort of media server or remote desktop or something like that.
I searched a lot over the internet but was unable to find anything on how to video out from this device or how to enable any screen sharing over network (like VNC / RDP) but was not able to do anything as the screen is completely gone and there is no way I can interact with the device.
Here is what I have,
- No WiFi is configured on TV, cannot setup or connect to any network as screen is not working.
- ADB is not enabled, as said before cannot enable as not able to interact with device.
- Able to connect the TV over the Ethernet but except pinging it cannot do anything else. Tried open ADB ports but as it is disabled cannot do anything.
Please help me with this if you know way like how can I get shell access or how to hack my way into ADB or any way to video out from device.
Here is the product page of the device - https://www.mi.com/in/mi-led-smart-tv-4a-pro-49/
Hi.
I've checked 3 pcs of Mi TV stick - each time after updating to latest update the stick is turning on by itself in 20 seconds after turning off by remote.
The new piece from box before update is ok, after installing latest update same issue. Does Xiaomi knows some solution to this bug?

I have the same problem bro. Still not found the solution.
I got the solution - at least that worked for me. The problem was with charging adapter from xiaomi phone. When stick was charged from PC USB slot then no problem with turning on by itself. It seems those sticks need power from low voltage sources like PC USB or TV USB (that I didnt check). Try it.
In my case there is no difference. TV Stick turning on by itself no matter if it was in TV USB, PC USB or plugged in charged which came in package.
It was my 2nd TV Stick because 1st was sended back because of classic problem with remote - losing connection and you need to unplug the device.
Unfortunately I have same issue with latest PI.1727. It's not able to stay in standby. On my side I'm sure it's a reason of updated hdmi-cec code. Once upon a time I was able to shutdown both tv and stick with a single button click. It's a dream now. I wish we were able to downgrade firmware.
Same issue on brand new Mi TV Stick updated to PI.1727. It wakes up with no reason.
Same issue here. I can shutdown MiStick + Tv, but I can't turn on both devices from remote using HDMI-CEC.
And both devices turn on automatically every day at same hour.
