I do not receive messages on my xiaomi phone. Educational program by SMS or how to use the SMS application. Flashing or resetting settings

One day we ran into a problem incorrect work phone, no SMS is sent from Xiaomi Redmi 3s, no messages are received on the smartphone, or the sent SMS is delivered only 10 hours later. As it turned out, the problem with sending and receiving messages is quite common among Xiaomi smartphone owners who purchased phones on Chinese Internet sites. Both old models and models of recent years are susceptible to this problem. There may be several reasons, so let's look at the most popular solutions.

SIM card check

Initially, it is worth checking whether it is possible to send or receive SMS with the same SIM card on another device, it is quite possible that the problem does not lie in the Xiaomi phone.

If, before using the SIM card, you replaced it, for example, with a different format, then it should be borne in mind that due to technological features, after replacing the SIM card, a restriction on receiving and sending messages will be imposed, lasting up to 24 hours. This rule applies to many operators.

Flash and reset

The most effective remedy is to update your smartphone's firmware. Some versions operating system miui were released with bugs, which can only be fixed by installing a new version of the OS. Find the "update" item in the phone settings and install a more recent firmware.

If you have any problems with the update, it is worth trying to do it, without deleting the data.

Configuring Messages

In our case, on Xiaomi Redmi, setting up an SMS center helped. Go to Settings - System applications - Messages - Advanced - SMS center number. There you need to enter a special number, for each operator and region it has its own. Find it easily in search engines or you can call the operator support.

It is worth checking the blacklist, it is quite possible that numbers that are important to you got there by mistake. You can configure it in the "Security" section.

Background processes

Another reason why the smartphone does not send SMS may be the blocking of background processes.

System to reduce power consumption and optimize random access memory blocks applications in the background, in the same way system applications could be blocked. More details about this problem and how to configure everything are described correctly in the article about.

Messages won't open

If messages on the smartphone do not open at all, an error appears, or the program closes after a couple of seconds, then this is a problem with the miui operating system. Apart from the update, there are a few more solutions.

If you changed the font size in the phone, for example, from M to L, then you should return the previous size, after that the “messages” application should work correctly.
Try to activate messages, you can find this setting in the following way: Settings - System applications - SMS / MMS - Mi messages and click the "Activate" button.
Change the device language to English (United Kingdom), open messages and agree with the pop-up windows to organize various data, then change the language to Russian.
Check your phone for viruses, it is possible that a virus is blocking messages.

We hope these tips helped you. You may know more effective ways, share your experience in the comments.

In the overwhelming majority of cases, when installing a new SIM card, the smartphone automatically receives MMS settings and mobile internet... But sometimes failures can occur, as a result of which the user has to manually set the desired parameters. In this article we will tell you how to set up MMS on Android.

To open MMC settings, you need to do the following:

Step 1... Run the app Settings and select the section " SIM cards and mobile networks».

Step 2... Please select SIM card for which you want to configure MMC.

Step 3... Click the " Access points».

Step 4... Select an access point for MMS and in the next window set the parameters required for correct reception and sending of multimedia messages.

MMS hotspot settings differ depending on different operators mobile communications... To save your time, we have collected links to the corresponding MMS settings for gadgets under Android the largest providers in Russia and neighboring countries:

How to send MMS from Android

Earlier (on push-button telephones), to send MMS, you had to select the appropriate option in the messages menu. V modern smartphones everything is much simpler: just attach, for example, a photo to text message to automatically convert it to multimedia. This also works in the opposite direction - by deleting all multimedia files from the created MMS, you will turn it into an SMS message.

Conclusion

Setting up MMS on Android is very simple - just use this guide - and in a couple of minutes you will be able to send and receive multimedia messages on your smartphone.

Below is a list of those programs that you can remove without risking damage to the system, as well as their given short description and it is noted whether they affect the speed of the system.

Root rights are required to uninstall system applications.

BugReport... Submits error reports. Affects the speed of the device.
CloudPrint... Virtual printer application. Does not affect speed.
Email... Quite an acceptable client Email from Xiaomi. If you use it, then there is simply no point in deleting it. Well, if you are using a third-party email client, then feel free to delete.
Fasdormancy... This feature is only available for certain European and Asian mobile operators. Read about it on the Internet and check if your mobile operator supports it. No - delete. Affects speed.
FingerprintService... The second branded virtual printer from Xiaomi. Does not affect speed.
MiLinkService... A very useful application from Xiaomi that allows devices on MIUI to exchange files with each other. If you don't use it, delete it. Does not affect speed.
PrintSpooler... Specialty stamps used with virtual printers. Does not affect speed.
QuikSearchBox... Branded search from Xiaomi, which opens by swiping down from the top of the screen. There is a bit of a curve in use, so you can remove it. Does not affect speed.
StepsProvider... Add-on to the pedometer app. Affects speed.
Stk... Service menu from mobile operator... If your operator does not support this function, you can delete it. Affects speed.

Whetstone... Submitting error reports that relate to processor performance. Quite often the application "wakes up" the smartphone - we can safely delete it. Affects speed.

Some standard programs that can also be removed are located in the directory system / priv-app... We go there and look:

Browser... Official Xiaomi browser... Contains too much "Chinese" - you can delete and put an alternative. Does not affect speed.
Viset... Russian browser, which is available only in some firmware. If you also have it installed, it is better not to delete it, since it is completely Russified, has a lot of settings and works pretty quickly. Does not affect speed.
CellBroadcastReceiver... Alert for emergencies that are most common in Asia. Affects speed.
GoogleFeedBack... Official Google reviews. Affects speed.
Shell... An integral part of the MIUI operating system, which contains data about the operation of the shell (errors, reports, etc.), and then sends them to some server. You can delete. Affects speed.
YellowPage... Yellow Pages program. Shows data about your corporate accounts. Affects speed.
Weather... Weather forecast server. Enough good program, the interface is pleasant, there are a lot of settings. For an amateur. Does not affect speed.

In the second part of the article on the topic MIUI settings 7 I propose to tackle standard system applications, the removal of which will not in any way affect the operation of the smartphone

Before proceeding with any action, I highly recommend making a backup!

Remove system applications MIUI 7

We follow the path system / app and we find ourselves in the folder with the main system applications. This is where we begin to get rid of those applications that, in my opinion, are not needed in the system.

Below are the applications that are uninstalled without consequences. I note that everyone has this list is individual and depends on whether you use services from xiaomi or not, and also depends on the firmware version and localizations (multirom, xiaomi.eu, miui.su, miui.pro, copyright solutions). I am using services from xiaomi, so the list is rather narrow. I will also try to indicate which applications are present on different versions firmware.

SYSTEM / APP

BugReport- Submitting bug reports (present on all versions) - To optimize
CloudPrint2- Virtual printer. I do not need it and will need it (7.1.2.0 - 7.1.3.0 is missing) - does not affect optimization
Email- Pretty versatile mail app from Xiaomi. If you use it, then there is no point in getting rid of it. I don't need corporate email support, especially since I'm using another application, so I'm deleting it. (on all firmware versions, some copyright exceptions) - does not affect optimization
Fastdormancy- This function, if I understand correctly, is used by mobile operators in Europe and Asia. You can read about technology on the Internet. After reading it, I realized that my cellular operator does not support it. And it can also drain the battery charge quite strongly if there is no operator support. Definitely "under the knife." (only observed xiaomi.eu and latest version from multirom) - to optimize
MiLinkService- "useful" feature for devices from Xiaomi. Allows you to transfer files between devices from Xiaomi. Overkill for me. Removed. (Present on all versions except some copyrighted ones) - does not affect optimization
PrintSpooler- printing. Take into account the same as with other services from the "virtual printer". (Present on all versions except some copyrighted ones) - does not affect optimization
QuickSearchBox – Quick search from Xiaomi, which appears if you swipe up from the bottom of the screen. I tried it and realized that it was a little crooked to use. Alternative to Google Now. Works great, responds clearly to the challenge. In short, I recommend it. (Present on all versions except some copyrighted ones) - does not affect optimization
StepsProvider- this service was not available in previous builds. Perhaps responsible for the pedometer. I don’t understand why it was added. Removed. (Observed on 7.2.4.0 and 7.2.7.0 from xiaomi.eu) - to optimize
Stk- service application from cellular operator... MTS Belarus has few useful features in this application. I just removed it, but it's better to freeze it in Titanium, otherwise after full reset to the factory settings, there may be problems with the network detection. (Present on all versions) - to optimize
Updater- Firmware update via system application... Many people ask “How to disable incoming notifications about the appearance new version ON". We delete and forget about it.
Note:
As for the DEV firmware, this application cannot be deleted, otherwise the phone is blocked and asks for the login and password of the MI account. But after entering it hung up on check. I tested it on two DEV versions. Everything is fine in stable versions. (Present on all versions except some copyrighted ones) - to optimize
Whetstone- And again sending logs that are related to processor performance. Very often this service wakes up the device. Checked. I delete. (Present on all versions except some copyrighted ones) - to optimize

SYSTEM / DATA-APP

klobugreport... We delete it. Responsible for sending error logs. (Present on all versions except some copyrighted ones) - to optimize

SYSTEM / PRIV-APP

Browser– Standard Browser from Xiaomi. At first, I constantly deleted it because of the Chinese. But then I ran into patched version from 7.1.2.0 Multirom by Viset is in my folder. I was pleasantly surprised. The browser is completely Russian, in the news most of the news portals of my country and neighboring countries. Cool. I set it up and realized that the browser is very smart. Flash support. I just replaced the version from xiaomi.eu with the version from the firmware 7.1.2.0 from Viset (got up without problems). And of course permissions per folder "0755" and on the apk file itself "0644"... (Present on all versions except some copyrighted ones) - does not affect optimization
CellBroadcastReceiver- Broadcast messages (tsunamis, disasters, etc.), which are widespread there in Europe and Asia. I don’t practice. Deleted. (Present on all versions except some copyrighted ones) - to optimize
Googlefeedback- Google Reviews. Deleted. (Present on all versions except some copyrighted ones) - to optimize
Shell- Part of the MIUI shell, which stores summaries and logs of the shell, which are later sent somewhere. Deleted, tested, no problems identified. (in the comments they say that after deletion, they do not have developer mode). Fine. In addition, I will say that removing this service helps to get rid of process "Shell", which hangs in memory and sometimes loads the processor quite heavily.

(Present on all versions except some copyrighted ones) - to optimize
YellowPage- Yellow Pages. Lets see more detailed information about corporate clients, their numbers and accounts. Deleted. (Present on all versions except some copyrighted ones) - to optimize
Weather, WeatherProvider- Weather and weather server. The application is good, it differs from different editions (localizations). Suppose the temperature graph of the Multirom is made in the form of sinusoidal curves. It looks great. However, more often than not in the forecast, instead of the usual units for measuring wind speed and atmospheric pressure, there are km / h and Pa, respectively. I uninstall and install an alternative Weather BZ... IMHO the best weather app. Looks familiar, integrates perfectly into standard weather widgets, as well as custom themes and lock screens. (Present on all versions except some copyrighted ones) - does not affect optimization

About freezing (disabling) applications via Titanium BackUp: I will say that this method is safer than just deleting applications from the system. But when there is backup copy applications, then there is no significant difference.

Despite the active use of text messengers for communication, many owners mobile phones periodically send SMS messages. In this article, we will tell you what to do if Xiaomi smartphone messages are not received or messages are not sent from the machine.

Blacklist check

Perhaps, by mistake, some contacts could be included in the "black list". To check it, you need to go to the phone book and call up the menu (an icon with three horizontal stripes). When opening, select the "Black List" item. If there are blocked SMS or calls, then it is necessary to "unfreeze" them.

If the subsection is empty, then we continue to look for the causes of the malfunction.

Checking the functionality of the SIM card

Quite often, when replacing a SIM card, restrictions are imposed on the work with SMS messages, which is associated with the technological features of this process. In order to check the correctness of its work, you need to insert the card into another phone.

If the problem persists, then the problem lies in the smartphone.

Flashing or resetting settings

One of the most simple ways- try to update the firmware, as there may be a system error in the installed shell. To do this, go to the settings in the "About phone" section and select the "System update" item.
