AndroidTV 9 Fix!
Hallelujah! We have a fix & Jeff Buckley is singing it to me and I can see he's singing it to me on my A/V receiver projecting on my screen .... Phew!!
So Xiaomi have come back to me with a fix that I'm about to paste below. Before I do let me share my experience.
I executed the steps the first time, the projector went into update, rebooted, told me that I had the USB device connected I'd used to trigger the update and asked if I'd like to use as storage or exit. I chose exit. Ran the setup, went to HDMI and .... oh sh!t it didn't work ... same problem ... bummer! Was half way through emailing support again when I thought what if it's that darn USB connection. Ran the update again but this time as the projector rebooted I
removed the USB drive.
Hallelujah .... the projector went straight into setup and once done I was able to see all my beautiful HDMI devices again
Here's the email with the contained steps:
Thank you for contacting Xiaomi customer Support and sharing the attachments with us. I am Shubham and sorry to know that you are facing issue with HDMI input after the update.
I would request you to follow below steps to get this issue resolved:
1. Insert an empty USB flash drive into a computer
• Format the USB flash drive to FAT32 (right mouse click >"Format")
• Note that Android software updates can be around 1GB, ensure you have a USB flash drive that has enough free space for you to save the software on.
2. Open a web browser

4. Put "update-anglee.zip" and "formovie_update-anglee" into the root directory of a USB drive (FAT32).
5. Unplug the power to the projector.
6. Unplug the remote control battery.
7. Plug the USB into the USB port in the back of the projector.
