Issues with casting and software in my Xiaomi Compact Projector

by WesternVizu

Hi all!

I recently bought a Xiaomi Compact Projector. So far I am very pleased with the projector itself, but I'm having some issues with Android TV 9.

-My phone does not allow me to cast, it does not find the device (redmi note 9)

-Some applications that are installed do not appear anywhere but in the play store, so I'm unable to open them

-No prime video (I think this can be bypassed using "Kodi" or something like this)

-No "qwerty" keyboard

-No bluetooth settings to check remote battery status (not really that important, but I read that this feature is included)

-No "sleep" featurre

Do you guys know of these issues and how to solve them?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Application you sideloaded and that are meant to be used on a phone won't appear in the list of installed apps or the menu. Open them via the settings.

Prime Video isn't certified for this device yet. You can sideload the application, it works perfectly fine.

Make sure all your devices are on the same WiFi network.

The remote works with non rechargeable batteries, I don't think I've ever seen Android TV devices showing the level. Only if the remote can be charged.

I just know you'll get a notification when the battery is low.

The missing sleep mode is particularly annoying because it means you have to boot from scratch every time you turn on the projector. I thought you could go into sleep mode with a voice command, but no luck.
