Description

**Your phone**: Poco F3 MIUI 13 (Android 12)

Uninstalling `com.xiaomi.xmfs` causes a system crash followed by a bootloop.

Don't uninstall the package `com.xiaomi.xmfs` if you're on MIUI 13.

Research direction

The issue is specific to the Poco F3 on MIUI 13. Research involves examining the package 'com.xiaomi.xmfs' and its dependencies within the debloater's package list or detection logic. Look at the code that handles package removal warnings or device-specific rules, likely in the Rust codebase. Testing would require access to the specific device and MIUI version to understand the bootloop trigger.
