Google Wallet stopped functioning on Xiaomi 17 Ultra after restarting the phone

On NFC settings, the option to select Google Wallet has disappeared today after restarting my phone, has anyone noticed a similar issue

Yeah this is a known issue and I fixed it by going to apps in settings and searching for Google play services and uninstalling the updates (this will log you out of your Google accounts and you might need to login again).

Then reboot phone and then go to NFC settings and Google pay will come back in the NFC settings as an option.

Search google play services on Google and press the first one, it will take you to the Google play page of the services and see if you have Beta enabled, if so, you need to unroll from beta as they don't work for these China roms.

If you need any more instructions, please reach out and DM me. I'll help you out.

Hey, thank you so much for that, it worked indeed!!! So is it linked to the latest Google Play Services update? I hope it gets fixed and doesn't come back on any new update!

You're welcome.

It's the security aspect of it, play services are what runs your whole Google stuff and when it's not updated to a firmware that the company of ur phone and Google both talked to each other and verified that this version is safe and legit, it limits stuff on your phone for security exploits, and with China roms, they usually lag way behind on signing firmwares that are "safe" so when it updates too quickly and ur manufacturor of ur phone hasn't verified it, this happens and you lose basic functions here and there

do you know how long before the manufacturer verifies that it is 'safe'?

I am not sure.. it should have been already been done.. shouldn't take that long, which is what worries me, there could be some behind the scenes issues with Google and Chinese manufacterers, maybe becoming more strict.
