Didnt know that other people were getting it. Guess we just need to wait for a fix then. Thanks for the reply

Mi9T, same issue. after uninstall security app update, all working fine .

How do you uninstall the update?

I’m on a xiaomi pocophone and I have the same problem. I started noticing about 20minutes ago. I tried rebooting my phone and I still have the problem.

EDIT: Thanks to everyone giving me directions! I did it (uninstall updates) and it’s fixed now!

My gf is having this issue on Redmi 9

maybe they will release a system udpate

Go to security app info then uninstall updates

OMG thank you.

Same it’s happening to me!

# How I “fixed” it:

1. Go to settings
2. Apps
3. Manage apps
4. Search for *”Security”*
5. Open *”Security”* app
6. Hit “Clear data”
7. “Clear all data”
8. Enjoy

If Xiaomi see this: **I suggest to modify the way they display these notifications/alerts, because if a bug eventually happens (which it seems to be this case) we literally can’t use the phone and this is unacceptable.**

# Edit
If for some users “Clear all data” it’s not enough, do the same process and remove the updates from this app.

brooo if this works, thanks alot

yeah it works

Go to apps, manage apps, security, clear data, clear all data or uninstall updates. Either should work.

So far it’s going well for me just clearing the data

exact same thing happened to me like 30 mins ago

Thanks it works in Redmi note 8 pro

Is this a recent issue? My hubby’s phone started doing this awhile ago.

Same for me on my Redmi Note 8 Pro, it just came up.

I had this happen first thing this morning. After many dismissed dialogs, clearing data fixed it for me too.

Does this work for Mi Note 10s, this started happening to me about 10 minutes ago?

I literally just did this, and it works, thanks. You have been a Life Saver

works just fine tnx m8

This works for me. Thanks!

yeah, same error here in pakistan on note 8 pro. seems like some issues in security update.

Had the same problem, Mi 8

thaanks a lot mate

isn’t clear all data going to erase all documents, contacts, notes, pictures etc.? and what happens after you uninstall the update for the security app? if it is a global problem shouldn’d xiaomi soon give us an update to clear the problem?

same here just now!

That work, thank you so much, man)

I have the same issue

Thanks, sorted!

This was SO HARD because the pop up kept on appearing on me trying to find the right option in settings and I had to press cancel every 3 sec. But thank you so much.

Thank you, worked like a charm. I think so many users got the same issue at the same time.

redmi note 9 user here, it works for me

I googled “security keeps stopping” and found your post. There is one another simularity. I was also playing on Pokerstars.. probably not a coincidence.

Thx Sir!

Thanks, was going crazy with this message popping up. You’re todays hero 💯

Thank you so much! I was going insane, lol.

Thank you so much my dude!

I have not uninstalled updates. I have opened the app and cleared the phone (speed up and so on). Pop up message stopped. Looks like security app has trouble to cope with some data from other apps.

Update: I had to uninstall updates. Message appeared again few hours later.

I don’t know who you are, I don’t know where you live, but there is someone that loves you in Brazil. You saved my life with this answer. God bless you.

me too, does anyone know why it happened?

thank you

oh man, you literally saved my phone and my day!

Thanks a lot!!!

same here so annoying

Can someone please tell me if we uninstall security app will it remove some data from my mobile? Like photos pdf videos?

thank you… fixed

Abraço de Portugal, tmj 😉

You can’t uninstall because it’s a preinstalled system app clearing all cache data helped me otherwise uninstall all updates from it

Thanks so much, ya saved me too!

I got a date afternoon but before morning this error showed up like the end of my life. I’d to take some photos for her, but i had no idea why this error occurred. I tried with uninstalling updates of security app, restarting, charging and it didn’t work. Finally i found this post and cleared app data. Then my phone got back to normal and i was like my fucking best day of my life. I really thank y’all guys for saving my life.
P.S – I got laid that day.

Thank you, I was having the same problem and this worked. Mi Note 10

Same happened to me using xiaomi mi 9 lite. Clear data fixed it for me. It started after latest security update.

How did it begin first of all? Did you get update for it?

Happy to assist you

I also experienced it on my Redmi Note 9(Global) last night after connecting to the Wi-Fi. I sort of “fixed” it by clearing the app data of the Security app.

I reinstalled the same update and no problems yet.
