Hi all, got a strange one here that started 2 days ago after I rebooted my Note 12 Pro normally.
The phone thinks that the reboot was a factory reset for some reason - all installed apps seem to be working fine and nothing looks out of the ordinary or missing form a functionality perspective, however, have noticed that certain app notifications are either intermittent, or have stopped - Tapatalk for example (can't tell if it's Tapatalk on the blink again or if it's affected by this particular restore issue). The SIM card signal for my voice card also disappears every so often, like there's no connectivity at all, but that could also just be Vodacom, as it happens frequently recently with all the loadshedding...
Running stock MIUI Global 14.0.4, from new. Phone is a couple of months old.
There's now a permanent notification from MIUI SDK saying that system items need to be restored to use MIUI normally after a factory reset; I assume it will stay there until it's done what it needs to do, but can't complete it:
If I tap it, I get this notice:
Click Restore and this is in the notification bar:
After 30 seconds or so, it goes through 1/3, 2/3 and 3/3, then this notice pops up, like it can't complete whatever it's trying to restore.
Network is fine and have also tried on both wifi and cell data - same notice/error and cannot restore whatever it's trying to restore. Not even sure what it's trying to restore on the 3 items.
Any ideas - search doesn't seem to find anything for MIUI 14, or recent...
