Ever encountered with “Downloading English (India) – Waiting for Wi-Fi” notification on your Redmi phone? I know the pain! It just doesn’t go by simply swiping right from the notification bar. I had the same issue on my Redmi 3S Prime and I came to know that this particular issue is common with most of the Redmi phones including Redmi Note 3, Note 4, 3S Prime, etc.
By the way, it should not be confused with the “Female for English India (Waiting for WiFi)” notification. I shared the solution for that issue here:
Female for English India (Waiting for WiFi): Remove from Notification Panel
Though both of these notification looks the same, the root cause is different. Downloading English (India) comes from an interrupted download of Google Voice Typing where the Female for English (India) is shown because of an issue with the Text-to-speech Output. In both cases, the solution is quite simple. But finding, from where it comes, is the key.

How to Remove “Downloading English (India) Waiting for WiFi” from the Notification Bar
First of all, open Settings> Additional Settings> Language & input menu. Then follow the below instructions exactly as mentioned.
- Under the Keyboard & Input Methods option, tap on the Google Voice Typing menu.
- From there, tap on the Offline Speech Recognition option.
- On the next screen, you could see the interrupted/waiting language packs. As long as it stays there, you keep getting the “Downloading English (India) Waiting for WiFi” notification. Cancel/stop the currently downloading language pack under the “Installed” tab. Then choose the Auto-update option.
- We have to manually download the language pack from there. But by default, it doesn’t download such files over mobile data. This means we’ve to change the download preference. For this, under the Auto-Update tab, choose the second option. i.e., “Auto-update language at any time. Data charges may apply.“
- Now head on to the “All” tab (located in the middle) and from there, you can see the entire list of languages that can be downloaded.
- Tap on English (India) or whatever, according to your locale.
- Once you click on the language option, the download will be started and the corresponding notification will be removed permanently from the notification bar.
- Optional: Reboot the device once the installation is completed.
Though it isn’t necessary to reboot the device, it helps to remove the cache files. The “Downloading English (India) Waiting for WiFi” notification won’t appear again in the notification panel of your Redmi phone after performing the aforementioned procedure. In case it still shows the notification, Go to Settings>Installed apps>All>Download Manager>Clear data.

This workaround has been personally tried on my Redmi 3S Prime which runs on MIUI 8.2.4.0 Global Stable ROM and will work on all devices, including MIUI 7.

Please share your language menu screenshot with me.
Hey it’s the same problem with me too even after downloading the packs both by WiFi and mobile data
Same here.
It didn’t worked for me. In my case installed section already had English(India) downloaded, there is only one option nd that is to uninstall it. In ‘All’section there is no language which is being downloaded or stopped due to some reason. Then also this notification keeps on popping.
Same here.
There is nothing being downloaded in ‘All’ section. And in “Installed” section English (India) is already downloaded. And Auto-Update is set to second option (Auto-Update at any time). But still this notification keeps on popping.
Did you try deleting the downloaded English India package and re-downloading it/.
Dint Worked Its the same
