I have installed the latest version of K9 mail and OpenKeychain from google play store. I have imported my private key and a few public keys in OpenKeychain. In K9 mail account settings, in Cryptography, I chose OpenKeychain as the OpenPGP app. But it still does not allow me to select anything under "My Key". Nothing happens when I press that option.

Same problem here:
Chose OpenKeyChain from general settings, but I can't choose my key from my account. It keeps saying that I didn't select a key. When I pressed on it, nothing happened. Saw K9 in OpenKeyChain app.

Phone: Xiaomi Mi9
OS: MIUI 10 | Android 9
System Language: zh-CN
OpenKeyChain: 5.3 (53304)
K9: 5.600

Thanks

2nd Edit:
Proven worked on Huawei P10 recently. IDK why it doesn't work anymore.

3rd Edit:
Fixed. Solution: Please make sure OpenKeyChain has enough privileges to pop-up a window from the background.

Thanks

I'm also with MIUI 11, and I could get the OpenKeyChain prompt after giving to the Openkeychain app the proper permission "Display pop-up windows while running in the background".

Yes this is still a big issue, I have attached a screenshot on how to fix it manually according to previous posters:

Screenshot_2020-02-10-19-19-37-583_com miui securitycenter

Sorry for non-english version, but visual people will find it anyway based on screen offset.

This info belongs in a wiki until a way is found how to request that permission from MIUI 11, should it be possible.

Just as an update I am still not able to get the prompt from OpenKeychain. I have tried many settings by now but I still can't get it to show. The settings shown in the screenshot is enabled on my device.

In Xiaomi phones (MIUI) you have to do this more or less: https://forum.k9mail.app/t/how-do-i-make-k-9-mail-work-with-openkeychain-on-xiaomis-miui/82

Now it works!

I did all that. Did not work! I have a new phone. It works now Poco X3 NFC same OS. I don't know why that happened on the old one only.

Did everything and still doesn't work, Maybe it doesn't on chinese phones, just drop OKC and implement PGP into the app like what thunderbird did please, or have it as an option.
This has been a 5 year bug and still hasn't been fixed holy.

I can confirm that this is still an issue today. I am unable to add my keys through OpenKeychain in v6.603 or pre-release v6.714. I have done all battery optimizations for both programs allowing them all access. Uninstalled and reinstalled each version and tested and nothing happens when selecting my PGP key. Several times I received an error that OpenKeychain stopped running.
Is there a way we can make this a higher priority?
