Answer 1

You need to give permissions in the in build security application for xiaomi.

1. open the security app
2. go to permissions
3. go to auto start
4. enable the applications that you want to keep running in the background!

This worked for me..!

Answer 2

this question already has answer in two Stack Overflow threads:

thread #1 https://stackoverflow.com/a/40932178/1537413

String xiaomi = "Xiaomi";
final String CALC_PACKAGE_NAME = "com.miui.securitycenter";
final String CALC_PACKAGE_ACITIVITY = "com.miui.permcenter.autostart.AutoStartManagementActivity";
if (deviceManufacturer.equalsIgnoreCase(xiaomi)) {
    DisplayUtils.showDialog(activity, "Ask for permission", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialogInterface, int i) {
            try {
                Intent intent = new Intent();
                intent.setComponent(new ComponentName(CALC_PACKAGE_NAME, CALC_PACKAGE_ACITIVITY));
                activity.startActivity(intent);
            } catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
                Logger.e(TAG, "Failed to launch AutoStart Screen ", e);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                Logger.e(TAG, "Failed to launch AutoStart Screen ", e);
            }
        }
    }, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(DialogInterface dialogInterface, int i) {

        }
    });
}

thread #2 https://stackoverflow.com/a/41696993/1537413

String manufacturer = "xiaomi";
        if(manufacturer.equalsIgnoreCase(android.os.Build.MANUFACTURER)) {
            //this will open auto start screen where user can enable permission for your app
            Intent intent = new Intent();
            intent.setComponent(new ComponentName("com.miui.securitycenter", "com.miui.permcenter.autostart.AutoStartManagementActivity"));
            startActivity(intent);
        }
