Display problem

Hi, I am having a strange issue.

When I go to display settings and change the saturation from soft (default) to glow the colours are much better on the phone and look great. But when I lock the phone and wait then unlock, the phone saturation resets back to to dull Soft settings.

You can see this has happened but in the display settings is still says Glow. Tapping soft then glow again solves the problem, until you lock and unlock again. Very annoying!

When you restart the phone and it was on Glow settings for high saturation, it starts up in glow, but the same problem every time the screen goes off and on.

Have tried full factory reset and two roms 1.18 and 1.26 and it doesnt fix nor does disabling the lock screen.

It doesnt seem like a hw issue as the phone does display Glow settings just resets, and when restarting is fine until the phone is off. So the display on and off resets saturation to Spft?? Why. Is there any way I can change the app defaults? The warm or cold Hue setting doesnt change nor does brightness.

Any help greatly appreciated so I can enjoy the great phone. Please can others check their phone too for this bug
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepakpitrola333:
Hi, for the link on pan Baidu, its 1.09 gb so you need to make an account. Just type in Baidu account on google and register with an email and or phone number. Then on the link to the rim hit the Blue one save to cloud, then the grey one and download Baidu client. It should appear on the Chinese app, you can hit download from there. Its in Chinese but easy to follow icons. Downloads quite fast, just the meter says 0% forever and 0b/s and then jumps.

To install just do as always, rename to update.zip and put in the root directory of phone (the first folder you see when plugged in)

The on the phone go to the Green Update icon on the second screen in a folder. Update by disk, then select your new rom and that's it. Follow the clicks and done.

Can easily root with the pc program provided earlier, I used SuperSu. Just enable developer options and debugging and the hit the option from the pc.

Hope that helps, if you could have a look at my issue and try to replicate or know a fix that would be much appreciated

Hi,

I will receive my phone today. I will try to reproduce your issue, but I will try to install updates and root the phone first.

Is it true that I need to un-root the phone to install updates (1.26 and 1.32) ? If it's not true, I will just root the phone now and install updates later.

So you updated or not? :)

How does it feel now?

I made unroot via SuperSU and I tried to apply update, but it did not apply :( Maybe the reason is that i removed all chinese trash i had in version 1.26... So what to do now? I've heard that making factory reset is risky - could cause a brick...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepakpitrola333:
Not yet, update is re downloading now after I unrooted.

Hopefully it fixes my screen problem, can anyone spare 2 mins and check if it affects them please?

Go to display and screen disp preferences and change saturation to Glow. Then lock and unlock and see if it resets to less saturated soft looking screen. Very noticeable on the Reds.

If not, I have no clue why mine resets

---------- Post added at 04:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:28 PM ----------

Mine just updated to 1.32 fine but my saturation issue remains.

A factory reset is not risky, butthe simplest way is to get the 1.26 Rom and update to that again from the phone, quick and easy and removes root, files and apps not touched. Then get 1.32

Really annoying about the screen thing. If no one else has it I will have to return the phone
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nafiganado:
It does revert back to less saturated colors in my case after I unlock the phone...

Could you please upload latest update file somewhere?

OTA downloading is veeeery slow, it takes more than 1 hour here and I'm trying to update already 3rd time... :(

I have re-flashed 1.26 ROM via recovery, let's see if i succeed to upgrade this time. If not - maybe I need to look at some logs on the phone, what is the reason...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deepakpitrola333:
Thanks for confirming. If everyone has this bug then I hope it gets fixed soon as the screen is dull when it can be great, especially on the z9 mini doesnt have this problem.

Sorry I can't give you the file, I did it OTA too. Didn't take long for me, maybe it was less busy download time.

Guys,

#4 here: http://i.imgur.com/MwiC0GJ.png

is temporary TWRP recovery, it's the most safe way I guess to install various custom stuff to any device. It's if to use PC connection.

If we want to use smartphone only - the option is applications like Flashify, that allow to boot into any given recovery.

The point here is to find RIGHT custom recovery for our device, I am right?

When I select #4 - I get device rebooted, then both left and right sensor buttons lighting and black screen... I think it tries to boot into TWRP recovery, meant for Z9 Mini and it's not suitable for Z9 Classic. Exe file that is run is just a RAR archive with some execution shell. You may extract the files from it and run everything by yourself, using adb commands, as one guy here already told.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Korov:
Can anyone post the original recovery.img? I can't seem to download the full ROM/update -- connection keeps breaking off.

Mine also isn't working with the Z9 mini recovery, meaning I haven't been able to update.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nafiganado:
To update, you need a stock recovery :)

Also, you need to be unrooted.

After I unrooted the phone via SuperSU option and re-flashed 1.26 firmware - I was able to make OTA update to version 1.32.

Then, using this exe (or adb behind the curtains, no matter) I got root again.

BUT - i remained on stock recovery, since rebooting to TWRP or reflashing TWRP does not work for me, as I already described (black screen and two flashing red buttons).

People say there is no a specific custom recovery for Nubia Z9 classic yet.

But in general, if you flash custom recovery - you won't be able to make OTA update anymore. You will need to re-flash stock recovery before this. OR, you will need to find firmware update in zip format (sometimes other formats are accepted also, depends on specific recovery) to re-flash manually via custom recovery.

All in all, I guess having a custom recovery is more flexible anyway, because you can flash any stuff via it. To flash something via stock recovery, you need to have this something signed.

I personally am missing a custom recovery now, because I would like to flash Xposed Framework to my Nubia Z9 (no fact it would work, though...) and with help of Wakelock Terminator plugin to pacify Google services a little bit as I did previously on my LG G3. Because currently battery draining in the idle mode is a little bit too much.

I did not try 1.26, because right only I received this phone, I've installed 1.32, considering these are quite serious changes :)

I can't seem to update from 1.26 to 1.32. The OTA always fails (I briefly see a sad face in the recovery). The device was rooted with Kinguser, but I believe I completely removed it. However, the basic Google framework has stayed on the device despite a full wipe and an upgrade from 1.18 to 1.26.

How did you upgrade from 1.18 with the Google framework.

Or did you update it without root
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Korov:
I downloaded 1.26 from the website and flashed it using the updater tool. However, I think the device was still rooted. I just unrooted and re-flashed 1.26. Now let's see if the 1.32 update works (if it ever downloads)...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Korov:
I was able to update to 1.32. I think the problem was Kinguser. You have to follow a specific workflow (http://androidxda.com/remove-kinguser-application) in order to remove it properly. If you don't, you still have Google Apps and root after each update (as well as lots of instability). So basically I removed Kinguser using the linked instructions, then wiped and reflashed 1.26 from recovery. After this, I was able to update to 1.32
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperBilleN:
Could you provide me with the 1.26 update I will then uploaded it to my Google drive for us all.

Still having problem downloading from the Chinese website. I were rooted with king user then unrooted and rooted again with supersu.

Tried to unroot with supersu and factory reset.

After the reset I had the playstore still there and 2 old apps that required root. So I believed that the root structure some how remained.

How do we correctly uninstall the playstore?
