Unable to allow permission for ‘Permanent protection’ during onboarding on some OEM devices

Applies to: Specific OEM devices only.

  • Xiaomi with Android 11

Defender App asks for Battery Optimization/Permanent Protection permission on devices as part of app onboarding, and selecting Allow returns an error that the permission couldn’t be set. It only affects the last permission called “Permanent Protection.”

Cause:

Xiaomi changed the battery optimization permissions in Android 11. Defender for Endpoint is not allowed to configure this setting to ignore battery optimizations.

Solution:

We are working with OEM to find a solution to enable this permission from the app onboarding screen. We will update the documentation when this is resolved. Users can follow these steps to enable the same permissions from the device settings:

  1. Go to Settings on your device.
  2. Search for and select Battery Optimization.

    Search for and select "Battery Optimisation".

  3. In Special app access, select Battery Optimization.

    In Special app access, select "Battery Optimisation".

  4. Change the Dropdown to show All Apps.

    Step one to change the dropdown to show "All Apps".

    Step two to change dropdown to show "All Apps".

  5. Locate “Microsoft Defender for Endpoint” and select Don’t Optimize.

    Locate "Microsoft Defender for Endpoint" and select "Don't Optimize".

Return to the Microsoft Defender for Endpoint onboarding screen, select Allow, and you will be redirected to the dashboard screen.
