Netflix not working after update to MIUI 11.0.2 Android Q - Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers

Hi all, I have just updated to the latest MIUI 11.0.2 from MIUI.eu just to realise that I was unable to use Netflix. (Takes extremely long at loading, end off with a "Device Failure Occured - 501 109"). Does anyone has the same issue?
Thanks!

Mine actually loads with widevine l3
But the play store can't update apps for some reason, it can't download anything too

If unlocked your bootloader your device becomes uncertified by Google. Which means you can install or even update the Netflix app that came pre installed.you can check this at play store settings then scroll down.

Actually, if you use .EU ROM without root you can still be certified by Google. I'm using latest weekly without root and my device is certified, I can download Netflix from PlayStore etc..

I ment stock miui, in Xiaomi EU or any other ROM they trick the system so it behaves as if it's locked, you can see this when you connect you device to the miui debloating tool. You can see that it will say your device is locked but it isn't.

Hi, how did you install magisk? I have made a patch file, installed with twrp but no matter what I get a recovery bootloop. Only way past was in twrp to allow permissions on busy box and faulity to 644. This lets me get the root and can get magiskhide but none of he other modules will install and save to the modules menu. MIUI 11

So what is the case here, with the same rom version some phones have widevine L1 and others L3?

We speak about Google Play Certification and not Widevine, that's not related.

Xiaomi.eu 11.0.2 has unfortunately L3 widewine and this can cause problems (maybe)
Ps: but dev version xiaomi.eu 9.11.28 has full support L1 and also the device is certified on google play. if not, there is a "safety patch magisk module" and it changes the fingerprint of the device (it changes as Huawei phone ) and works awesome

Any downside to unlocking bootloader?

I hav had the mi 9t for some time and I'm considering installing a custom ROM, EU variant of the ROM or maybe the screen overclock. As it's my first xiaomi device, could someone confirm wether this affects the warranty in any way? Before this phone I've unlocked my every previous phone and haven't had any problems.
Also: do I have to unlock the "official" way by using xiaomi's app or should I just unlock it with adb (fastboot)?
If you don't use Google Pay then I don't see any downside.
Yes I know there is Magisk but it's a cat and mouse game. One day it works, then Google patches it and it will break Google Pay.
In my case I decided to leave it locked because of Google Pay and another Banking App that won't work if I have a rooted phone.
What do you mean "don't use google play"? I've always had google play working on my rooted devices. Or do you mean just services that straight up don't want a rooted phone (banking apps...)?

OK then. I was mostly concerned with xiaomi's warranty policy and such. The unlock tool is showing me 168h now, wich is kind of unfortunate.

I think Mi 9T Widevine stays at L1 after unlocking comparing to OnePlus devices for example. They're going L3.

But it is not a downside of unlocking bootloader. It's a downside of installing EU rom because It's based on Chinese software which has no support for Widevine L1. Unlocking for a root/ some mods / etc. should stay L1.

No. You have L1 on official global and eea_global. Unlocked BL and root doesn't matter. You can always flash one of them to get widevine L1 back. All other roms based on official china (xiaomi.eu mi-globe and so on) are not certified for L1.
And btw: You can't install Netflix because of unlocked BL, no matter which rom. Same for some other apps. You can still sideload them but it sucks to check for updates manually.

There is at least one alternative method for Google Pay which is working even if current Magisk version can be detected by Google Pay and GMS: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/magisk-google-pay-gms-17-1-22-pie-t3929950

This is interesting. However like with Magisk a solution like this isn't guaranteed to work forever. One day you could have a full cart of groceries and then look like a dumbass not being able to pay for it because Google Pay decided not to work anymore because Google patched something.

Is there already one that is stable enough for daily use? I think the ones that are available are in very early development. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Most of everything is in early development, but I'll just test out a couple of the ROMs, maybe some GSIs and maybe even help out with testing. Otherwise I'll at least install the EU ROM and the 75hz overclock.

I have a Chinese Redmi K20 and I'm trying to decide between official global and xiaomi.eu roms. (just waiting for bootloader unlock)
Sounds like Netflix is out whatever - I can live with sideloading.
Google Pay would be nice but as discussed, cat and mouse game that's arguably not worth it.
So what does L1 bring me? I'd like my UK banking apps to work and want Google safetynet passed as having in-app purchase issues with chinese rom.
Will official Global/Euro rom give me that?

Global: Yes. It will. It will also give you L1. If your BL is unlocked your banking app may disappear from playstore -> sideload, hide with magisk
EU (based on chinese): Same as above but without L1.
You can sideload Netflix on any of them, but those with L1 will stream in HD/UHD. Same for all other streaming platforms (e.g Amazon) which use DRM.

Google Pay Busted on Android 10

Got a message from Google Pay saying that my phone is rooted or is running uncertified software.
I have a T-Mobile variant that I converted , without root, to international. Anyone else see this issue?
Read. This is an old problem for years. Is your bootloader unlocked? Not rooted? Yes this breaks GPay. Hence, Magisk, root, systemless and Hide.
Easy fix.
I'm not rooted. Bootloader is locked.
I just booted into bootloader to double check, and it is locked and secure boot is enabled

You're going to need root to get this fixed. So first go this link and follow the instructions in the first post to get Magisk on your device.
Next, you may need to install the latest Magisk Manager. Link here.
With Magisk Manager on your device, you can install both "Busybox for Android NDK" and "MagiskHide Props Config" modules.
After a reboot, use a terminal app (I used Termux) to setup MagiskHide Props as per the instructions here. I just used the available OnePlus 6T fingerprint.
With it all setup, the device will show up as certified.

Thanks for the suggestion.
I'm not rooted, and really don't want to root.
That is besides the point though, why is the official release of the OS having the issue.

When you say "official" release, did it come OTA, or did you download it, or use the updater from
the play store?
OnePlus isn't releasing 10 "officially" to the 6T, got a few bugs left to squish.

No, works fine. But I don't have a converted variant - all stock.
If you go back to stock as it is with T-variant (search for MSM tool), is it certified again?

Device is altered

I didn't unlock my bootloader and I'm not rooted. My bootloader is locked. But Google Pay seems to think my device is modified. I did install Android 10 on my TMobile variant but it was working fine when I had the Android 9 open beta. Disney + and Netflix aren't in the app store so Google Play thinks I'm altered too. Help?

It's a bug, you're going to have to wait until it's patched, no ETA from OnePlus yet.

I converted my T-Mobile phone using the MSM tool (no root) a while ago and never had trouble with Google Pay. It stopped working only after the latest update (Android 10.0). I hope OP will fix this in their next update.
Yeah, we all do. I have not been able to get around it. Tried the magisk module "setprops" but that didin't work. Anyone find a way around it yet?

Open Beta 2 T-Mobile

Has anyone tried to flash the new Beta update to the OnePlus 6T TMobile version? Does it still give the same error "Build Version does not match Hardware version"?

I just downloaded and installed the open beta 2 and it's great! I'm going to give it a week and "test the engine and tires." I still have my Pie firmware, just in case.
NOTE: I installed using the local update method. I was rooted also with pie.
Main OP question was if you flash android 10 via zip and tried flashing beta on top to see if it works like it did on android 9. Please let me know if anyone tried this as well. Thank you in advance.

No 'build version does not match hardware version' error when flashing the new beta to TMO converted one plus 6t. I used TWRP 3.3.1.28 and all is good.
We still don't have the "reserve" partition though. OnePlus fonts will be missing and show up as italic fonts. A few apps are also gone but can be installed from play store. You wont pass Safety net so you will miss out on Netflix, etc.
No F/C's. Not sure on battery yet.
Everything else does seem good! I am enjoying it!

I used patched MSM tool to get TMobile variant to international ROM without unlocking bootloader and then I local upgraded to Android 10 stable, then local upgraded to OB 2 and all is well!
So I'm on Android 10 Stable with bootloader unlocked. What happens if I relock bootloader? Will I go into bootloop on restart, and will it get rid of the warning on restart, or do I need to do what @bigmikey307 did?
Update : I did the above but didn't go to beta 2

Nope, not certified. Someone posted some links in the Official Stable thread with instructions on how to do it using root and some magisk modules.

So like @Scott Mentioned, it requires root to pass at the moment. The Magisk mod is called Magiskhide props config and it works perfectly well as a workaround. Good luck!

I'm probably overlooking something obvious but I have no idea what it is.
Here's the story; I have a T-Mobile OP6t converted to International.
Flashed the update to OB31 (Open Beta 2).
I have Magisk and Titanium Backup installed, both with root access allowed.
However, I'm unable to get TB to actually uninstall some of the system apps I don't want.
Also, I can't copy and paste (via Solid Explorer) my edited HOSTS file to block ads.

The OP Weather app for instance, the OP square and round icon packs, e few more that I dont recall. All of them could be downloaded from the play store. You only need the font fox magisk module referenced earlier in this thread. You wont notice these missing apps on a dirty install but you will see it on a clean install or factory reset.
Reinstalling the ROM ZIP via in-built updater fixes the issue. Done it multiple times.

Disney+ App Incompatible With Device?

I'm getting, "Your device isn't compatible with this version" error when I try to install it on my phone.
I'm still on 8.1 due to some Xposed modules not being updated for 9.0.
Disney+ support states that they have installs blocked unless you're on the latest version of your ROM... is this true?

Disney+ works for me, i think your phone failed a test. I recommend installing a outdated disney+ apk. And the play store will update it automatically for you. And it will keep doing that so you dont notice a difference

Are you still on Android 8.1 or have you upgraded to 9?
Honestly, this is the first time an app has been incompatible with my device.
I've also got the play store and playstore services enabled for Magisk Hide.
Wasn't too comfortable with installing the APKpure app as the site requires it now, but after doing some digging it seems like they're trustworthy enough.
Once I had that, installing the latest Disney+ version went flawlessly.
So thank you for the encouragement!
Makes me think that the CS rep was right and they put a condition that only devices on their latest android version are allowed to install it from Google Play.

That could be the test you failed, it would be a stupid discission from Disney tho, since most people are outdated..
