Hi,

Sometimes the lockscreen stays still black. And do not unlock the screen with power button or anything. Must reboot only. Why can it be?

Probably you switched on DT2W (Double Tap to Wake up the screen). If Yes switch it off.
[Mate 8 Android Development] gedizlib:
Yes exactly.But can not ise them at the same time?
[Mate 8 Android Development] ZeroPDA:
It's Huaswei's bug. There is no cure. If you have it, just switch DT2W off. It's known problem. We hope they will fix it in the future.

Hi again,

Some more questions.

My notification pull down drawer does not do quick dial with the apps like TUFFS or Notification Shortcuts, Launchify. Does do the launching shortcutted apps like Whatsapp, Instagram etc. But only does not do direct dialing a favorite person shortcut. Any suggestions? Or can i change something in the root to give permission to call.

Every main permissions are done with the apps that i've wrote above. And protecting also from the system.

And last, mostly hourly weather apps does not update automaticly. When i set the update interval to 30Min or 1 hr npthing changes at any interval. Why can it be? Only when i click the widget it updates.

thnx.

I can't change theme in this build never had that problem before. Tried searching the thread but did not find anyting. Is there a fix for this?

edit: found the fix just apply Obzidian first then another theme and it works.
[Mate 8 Android Development] basimzanaty:
same problem .....any solution???
[Mate 8 Android Development] drylightning:
Here's an issue I've been having since I got the phone, and it likely has nothing to do with the ROM, but it might.

Almost every time I reboot, I have to set up my widgets again. They won't refresh. This includes Yahoo weather, Google Play Newsstand, and a calendar widget I use. Kind of annoying.
[Mate 8 Android Development] gedizlib:
Still the same problem even turning off double touch ti wake function;(???
[Mate 8 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
Disabling that should solve the issue.

WhatsApp notifications doesn't come. Please, repeat the whole set of instructions which makes it work.

What I did: installed Xposed and Greenify. Set Boost mode in Greenify. Checked in Greenify in "Xposed-based Features" 3 first and 3 last checkboxes. In "Protected apps" I also checked WhatsApp and Greenify. It didn't help. After half an hour screen-off notifications didn't come.

At the moment I temporary made "dumpsys deviceidle disable" and it notifications come (but the battery is not OK). I'm asking for better solution. What I missed in Greenify or System Settings?

[Mate 8 Android Development] nosidefcp:
Sorry for the noob question but can anyone tell me.how to execute the following?:

-To help prevent apps from not showing notifications move them from data/app to system/app and set the proper permissions. (rwxr-xr-x for folders and rw-r--r-- for apk's)

Guys, you've to disable resource hooks in xposed settings to make it work!!!

Gesendet von meinem Huawei Mate 8
[Mate 8 Android Development] pappschlumpf:
With rootexplorer, es file explorer, etc. A root capable file explorer. But not any app works as system app!

Gesendet von meinem Huawei Mate 8
[Mate 8 Android Development] p_noch:
Yes, but in my experience I have found that some module would not work correctly while disabled resources hook, best solution for Xposed would be disable theming in build.prop then use Xposed with resource hook enabled.
[Mate 8 Android Development] gedizlib:
İs there an app a patch or etc to see the current weather condition or temperature at the status bar? Some apps do have that ability but not showing. Only their logo is shown on the stastus bar.

Did you add whatsapp in hibernate list to have greenify manage it? Make sure working mode in greenify is setted as "Boost" and DO NOT add google play service in hibernate list.

Greenify is the only thing im using that completely fixed all of my notification issue, and there is no need to move app to /system.
[Mate 8 Android Development] pappschlumpf:
Surely modules modifying resources are not working if resource hooks are disabled. But i don't want to loose theming, because of the ugly Huawei stock look and no theming app for xposed available that could change it. For example Flat Style Bar indicators is not working properly because of the Huawei changes in Sytemui, etc. Well unicon is working, but only changing icons is not enough.

Any tips what could be used instead of Huawei theme engine?

Layers is working, but not for Huawei system parts. Maybe if we create a special Huawei one.

[Mate 8 Android Development] nosidefcp:
Thanks. The greenify method seems to be working fine for me regarding the notification issue. Do you think you will be able to add that adb comand or sometinh like that to prrmanently fix the notification issue, without we have to use greenify or the adb comand? Thanks
[Mate 8 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
Using a script I simply disable Doze after each reboot automatically. Also works fine :good:

---------- Post added at 05:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:34 PM ----------

I figured it out with help from the GOOGLE.

I basically just did this:

Giving ES File explorer root can make a heck of a difference.

Thanks - great ROM, by the way!

Sorry, can't find it, where is "K-Settings"?
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
If you're on KangVIP it's at the top of the Settings menu.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
Thanks. Yeah to fix the notification issue on a lot of Huawei devices I always move LMT, Textra, my email app (AquaMail) and my weather widget & clock to system/app this way they stay open until I close them and I get the proper notifications.
[Mate 8 Android Development] Dioky:
Hi ajsmsg78,

Just moving the apk with a root explorer to /system/app and rebooting, or by copying them into the correct directory of the ROM before flashing?

Or do you just move the com.x directory from /data/app to /system/app?

Ha, don't bother! I've found the answer myself with Google here.

Sorry, should have done that before asking ;)
[Mate 8 Android Development] cih997:
Hi guys,

WiFi on, Bluetooth on, Mobile data on (one sim card in), GPS off, Power plan Smart and by night I got drain from 100% to 80% and I did not even touch my Mate 8.

In Consumption level Hardware is 18% (Mobile standby and Bluetooth on top, then Screen, Phone idle etc.). Software: Android System 54%, Android OS 22%, Google Play services 2% etc.

BetterBatteryStats:

Kernel Wakelocks: bluesleep 12%, PowerManagerService.WakeLocks 7%, GPSD 4%, mmc1_detect 3%, etc.

Partial Wakelocks: bluedroid_timer 3%, other apps 0%.

20% by night with no use is very poor. My previous device was 2-3% max by night.

Do you guys have any ideas / suggestions? Do you think this is KangVIP ROM issue only?

Thanks.
[Mate 8 Android Development] Dioky:
Well, every time I flash a ROM or do some wiping, to test or whatever, which is quite often actually :fingers-crossed:
[Mate 8 Android Development] jbmc83:
did ur device successfully enter deep sleep at all? check with betterbatterystats

[MENTION=2092065]Dioky[/MENTION]: naturally :D but in those scenarios one doesnt care about an additional message at boot or not ;) and in everyday scenarios (once a rom is flashed and everything is tweaked properly), u reboot maybe once a week or so...?
[Mate 8 Android Development] cih997:
Yes, Deep Sleep is 94%.

Not sure if any of below can be helpful:

Awake 2%

Wifi On 38%

Wifi Running 38%

No Data Connection 51%

No or Unknown Signal 51%
[Mate 8 Android Development] jbmc83:
well that is definitely nice to see...but all the more troubling seeing that 20% decline!

im getting 0-1% loss overnight (~8-10h), but admittedly, that is with all sensors switched off and airplane mode[emoji14]

check and see if any of the active sensors could be responsible by switching them off one by one and rechecking overnight.
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
I lose about 4% overnight with wifi and cellular data turned on and I always use performance mode but nowhere near a 20% drain. The battery life seems to me to be around the same as stock. It took a day or two for the phone to settle in. I don't think it's a rom problem. I don't use xposed so I'm not sure if that causes a battery drain. Do you get the drain with Bluetooth off? How's your cell signal in your house?
[Mate 8 Android Development] cih997:
I don't have xposed enabled (BTW how can I install it? I tried via K-Settings but after reboot it says xposed is installed but when I go to xposed settings application there is red message that xposed is not active and there is no way to activate it... I removed exposed after that) also I have BT enabled and very good signal. I will test with BT off. Thanks.
[Mate 8 Android Development] nighthawk626:
Gotta say I love this ROM but I definitely notice significant higher battery drain than my previous ROM I was using. That being said, I'll use this ROM for my days off work and the other ROM for days working or days I really need that extra battery
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
After you install xposed and reboot I think you have to go into the xposed settings check a box and check a box that says Disabled Resource Hooks. That's what you have to do for the Mediapad X2 so I'm assuming it's the same with the Mate 8.
[Mate 8 Android Development] rowihel2012:
xposed is not already installed with this rom?

i did not install any thing i thought it is already installed
[Mate 8 Android Development] ajsmsg78:
You have to go into K-Settings and tap Install xposed first.

Hi - thanks for the help with the widget issue. Another:

I listen to music via bluetooth in my car, but half the time (or so) I don't get any output. It works for calls, and I've made sure that "media" is selected in the BT settings. Sometimes if I reboot then I'll get sound (awesome sound with Viper...thank you) but that doesn't always work. Then I'll go a few days with no problems. Is this anything I could fix somewhere in settings?
[Mate 8 Android Development] gedizlib:
Sorry but no. It seems it can't. It also looks like a complicated app. Just want to see the current weather degree on the status bar.

Thanks anyway.
[Mate 8 Android Development] nosidefcp:
yes, my doubt is if there is any way you can implement that code to be executed automaticly by the phone in every startup
[Mate 8 Android Development] ZeroPDA:
I still have notification issue with WhatsApp despite using Greenify. Should WhatsApp be among greenified apps or no? What apps should I not greenify to make it work? Should Shallow Hibernation be enabled? Should Aggressive Doze be enabled? My battery is running out very quickly because I greenified almost nothing but notification from WhatsApp doesn't come in 20 min after screen off! I even disable deviceidle! Should I enable it back? Should I disable/enable resource hook (I didn't do anything regarding it)?
[Mate 8 Android Development] MathewBrack:
Yes I know, I did read the thread, they are disabled!!! most xposed modules work fine. It is just a few that seem unable to detect xposed.
[Mate 8 Android Development] pappschlumpf:
Which modules you're talking about? Maybe it's helpful if you post the names of the modules that are not working ;)
[Mate 8 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
No xposed here. Simply disabled Doze. Battery life won't take a significant hit. All notifications work as they should :good:

Added Whatsapp to Protected List, swiped down in recents, allowed system wake up, that's about it.
[Mate 8 Android Development] mbcla:
I just moved the Whatsapp file from data/app to system/app and changed the permissions. And the problem was solved :)
