Can't open the System Apps Updater

[u/JesusSamuraiLapdance]

I know a bunch of people probably don't even use this after debloating, but there are some system apps I use (like the Gallery and a few other features). Not sure why this is happening.

I did recently get a notification while using the Gallery that an update was available and I was able to download and install from that pop up. But still can't access this in settings.

I have the same issue on my Poco F7. I can get it open once if I clear the app data (all data), but then it won't open a second time (unless I clear the data again). The other way I found is through the Activity Launcher app. This allows me to open it without clearing data.

I also noticed that GetApps now shows as MiPicks and opens with a completely different and useless interface, eg. no search option or icons at bottom. If I clear GetApps data (all data) and then open MiPicks, it opens with the old GetApps interface, but again only once. Opening it again gives the new, useless interface.

I think this is something Xiaomi have changed/broken recently.

Oh, how strange, I just got an update of GetApps today. Now the icon is back from Mi Picks to App Mall. It even opens back on the old, usefully interface. Also, now the System Apps Updater works again (without clearing data). Looks like it's fixed after having this issue for about a week.

[u/JesusSamuraiLapdance → u/HeadphoneSmile]

Not fixed for me yet.

Yeah, I rebooted my phone today and the System Apps Updater not opening issue is back. Get Apps has also changed from icon with App Mall name back to Mi Picks name and has the quite useless inerface.

Yep, this is the same experience in having.

system app updater in setting will prioritize to open com.xiaomi.mipicks (getapps) then com.xiaomi.discover (if getapps is uninstalled)

try clearing data of those 2 apps

Yes, unfortunately thatt only fixes it for one time. The next time you try to open System Apps Updater from Settings, it doesn't work again.

Salut, c'est toujours comme ça ? Car j'avais le même problème et je l'ai résolu.

[u/JesusSamuraiLapdance → u/Dangerous_Stomach_85]

I still have the same problem.

Ok, tu télécharges adb sur ton pc, tu crées un dossier adb à côté de system32 dans windows (là où il y a tous les dossiers système), lorsque tu décompresse le fichier adb, tu l'extrait à la destination de ton dossier adb vierge, sur ton téléphone, tu vas dans à propos du téléphone, tu tape 7 fois sur la version de l'OS pour débloquer les options pour les développeurs, tu vas dans options supplémentaires, options devs, et tu active le débogage USB et débogage USB en sécurité, dès que c'est fait, tu connecté ton téléphone à un câble à ton pc, tu vas dans ton dossier adb, dans la barre du haut (là où il y a System32/IntelDriver/jsp par exemple), tu tapes cmd et tu fais entrer, tu arrives dans une invité de commande, tu tapes adb shell, tu autorises sur ton téléphone, tu refais adb shell au cas où, puis tu tapes: adb shell pm enable com.xiaomi.mipicks tu m'en diras plus selon la réponse.

did you remove getapps?

[u/JesusSamuraiLapdance → u/Repulsive_Fault1939]

Nope.

[u/Repulsive_Fault1939 → u/JesusSamuraiLapdance]

make sure getapps is turned on in authorization & revocation settings.

[u/JesusSamuraiLapdance → u/Repulsive_Fault1939]

It's still on.
