Issue with managing camera profiles

Participant ,

Hi,
besides my Sony camera, I shot quiet often with my mobile as well. On Xiaomi 15 Ultra I use two applications for shoting - GCAM (AGC 9.2) and default Xiaomi Camera app. Both have pros and cons, and both produce a bit different DNGs. I wanted to have them correctly handled, so I took my X-Rite Passport ColorChecker to the studio, took some shots, and with Calibrate Profiler prepared 8 profiles, 1 for each Xiaomi camera for each app.

Then I have imported them to LR on my computer. And there where problems started to appear. When I select DNG from GCAM, then I see 4 GCAM profiles:

but when I select DNG from the main app, I do not see any of imported profiles for that app:

Actually, I cannot see these profiles for the Xiaomi Camera app nowhere. So I figured maybe I did not import them at all. I tried to re-import them, but I just got message that they are already imported.

So my question is - how to make them appear? Or how to remove them, if I cannot see them in the camera profiles? That'f first thing. 

Second thing is, that I wanted to rename imported profiles for GCAM, as LR slighlty changes file names. And as there is no way to rename it, I wanted to delete them, and reimport.

And that is second issue. When I click on profile, and then confirm, nothing happens. Profile is still there, and I cannot re-import it with new name.

And my next question is: how to correctly sync profiles between devices? Mentioned by me profiles were added on my PC. Then, I edited some photos on that machine. Next day I wanted to continue editing some more on my mobile, but when I opened that picture on the LR mobile I got popup saying that profile used to edit that picture is not available on this device, and to continue editing and keep profile I need to continue editid that picture on the device where that profile exist.
So what is the point of keeping profiles in the cloud (and not allowing to simply delete from the directory if not needed enymore) if I cannot share it between devices where I have LR or that sync if off by days (I have created these additional profiles like 2 days ago, and have synced many pictues since then)?
Here is example of the same photo and available profiles on the PC:

and mobile:
