[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grivad:
Cool.

Regarding the YOU CAN'T REMOVE IT belief (which is categorically false), if this were a serious issue like people speculate it is, Android would simply not ALLOW you to remove it. Meaning if it was ever detected as being removed or missing, first time, Android would tell you "too bad, now it's unpaired", and would also make it REEEEALLY clear not to remove it at all, ever, during the pairing process, which it does not. Nor would it let you eject adopted storage, which you can, safely. Like I mentioned above, when booting without the SD present, the system runs fine and has a persistent notification asking you to reinsert the paired SD, and begins to check the SD as soon as it's inserted so it can be remounted. If you select the notification before putting the SD back in, it takes you to a panel explaining how the SD has all your apps, so you really should put it back in, or you can choose to "forget" the SD and you're back to square one. If you REALLY weren't supposed to remove the SD EVER, none of this would exist.

Additionally, pretty much every piece of documentation around adoptable storage says it can be removed just fine (but is only readable/usable by the device it was paired to), but the system kinda needs it to, you know, run all the apps you put on the thing, and will persistently remind you to reinsert it, unless you choose to break the adoption. So there's that.

Storage adoption isn't this magical, complicated thing. It mounts certain directories to your SD instead of internal storage (e.g., /storage/emulated), generates a key, then encrypts the card to prevent it from being read outside of the device it was paired with. That's really pretty much all there is to it. None of those things necessitate a or even imply that removal of an adopted SD would lead to sudden disaster. That's like believing if you take your hard drive out of your computer, but then plug it right back in, that it's going to be unbootable and dead. Doesn't work that way.

I appreciate you guys trying to help, but the problem is not simply that I removed the SD so now it's broken.

The thing that should get your attention is that when the SD is inserted, it begins to scan the SD and subsequently HARD-LOCKS. And PEGS THE CPU. Also that I cannot write to a working SD with Titanium. These things are pretty abnormal for Android devices, to say the least. There is something else going on here besides "You took the SD out and you weren't supposed to."
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GtrCraft:
Well you tried with another sd and there is no problem. So the cause of the freezing problem is your sd.

But be my guest and find another solution. I just gave an answer to your question and a solution for the problem. If you don't believe that then you shouldn't ask it in the first place
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grivad:
It's not that I don't believe the solution, I don't believe the premise because it is provably false :) There is absolutely nothing unsafe about ejecting adopted storage, which is why the OS lets you do it, even while it's running and using the storage. Even less of a risk if the thing is off. The "solution" offered wasn't much of a solution, and in the OP it was stated that I wasn't looking for that answer (already know that's an option, which is why I mentioned in the OP).

I appreciate you trying to help, but simply saying "format it", again, is the nuclear option. Not what I'm looking for. Either information as to what's happening (if anyone else has dealt with this) with a justification as to why it's irrepairable, or things to try based on the information I gave. Spending a lot of time being thorough just to get a "format it" response, to be frank, isn't very helpful :) It's like telling someone to reinstall their entire OS because they can't figure out how to install a driver, or to raze their house because a painting fell off the wall.

The SD didn't spontaneously corrupt itself in the 5 mins it was out of the device. No gamma bursts or EM storms in my area that I know of, either ;) Because the only thing that changed was installing the OTA, this really seems to be a software problem (albeit a bit bizarre, to me) so it should be fixable via software. The fact it's pegging the CPU when the SD is inserted makes me wonder if it's getting stuck in a loop, maybe due to partition changes (looking for a file or partition it can't find). If that's the case, again, that should be fixable via software, with instruction from someone knowledgeable on how the Android FS and mounts work.

Again thanks for trying to help. I know formatting is an option (the easiest one), but I'm looking for just that -- options.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lafester:
You did update the firmware with the sd out, nothing to do with lightning or gamma bursts.

Did you try downgrading firmware back to where it was?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grivad:
True, the SD was out, however this is how I've both read to do it in multiple places, and how I've applied every OTA so far without issue (with the same adopted SD every time). As part of my troubleshooting, I did try flashing the OTA with the adopted SD inserted, though. It didn't make a difference.

I did try downgrading.. When I started the tablet was on 1.2, OTAd to 1.3. Every time I'd reflash I would do so to 1.2. I did try flashing down to 1.1.1 (the "recovery OS image") and OTAing back up, and like I mentioned that allowed me to use the device with the SD inserted, but it wouldn't recognize it as the adopted storage.. just kinda did nothing, as if the card wasn't inserted at all. This happened in 1.2 as well (OTAd from 1.1.1), and once it got up to 1.3 from 1.2 it all started all over again.

I'm creating an image of the SD right now (using dd) to try restoring it to another SD. I've read that doing this preserves the pairing information, so if it's a bad SD, this would hopefully fix it. I also wanted to try flashing directly to 1.3, but the images aren't available yet :( Only 1.2 and 1.1.1..
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirrin:
Honestly I would divorce the card before update then redo it after this whole method is janky anyway no reason to remap the data links like they do and all it would be required is if app devs were forced to comply with a data space method... The feature of installing to SD card should be available to non married storage.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grivad:
Old thread, haven't been on in a while, but thought I'd post an update.

The problem ended up being a hardware issue. I contacted nVidia after absolutely nothing I tried resolved the issue (different SDs, different OS versions, different process to set up, etc.). I simply explained the problems I was having and my troubleshooting attempts, asked if it was a known issue or if they had any suggestions, and they immediately responded with RMA info, no questions asked. The replacement turnaround time was very fast (within a week IIRC), and the new K1 has had zero issues.

Hi there.

I seem to have a problem to turn on permission on my Huawei Watch. When I try to use Google Fit Heart Rate monitor, watch ask me for permission for vital signs, I choose allow, then I get screen:

"Screen overlay dete...

To change this permission setting, you first have to turn off the screen overlay from Settings > Apps"

and

"Open settings" button, which doesn't work.

Has anyone got solution for this problem?

Thanks in advance.:good:
[Huawei Watch] Pkt_Lnt:
If you are using a mini launcher, that causes it. Uninstall the launcher.
[Huawei Watch] zupna:
Thanks, it was one of paid watch faces, I set to one preinstalled, turn on allowance and put the watch face back on. Everything now works as it should.

Thanks, your life saver! :good: :)
[Huawei Watch] bobjbain:
Yeah, I have the same problem myself, I install "Wear Mini Launcher" yesterday and now I get that error message appear when I try and use the Runway watch face.

I have "uninstalled" Wear Mini Launcher from my phone but I still have the watch face in my list of faces and no amount of "hide on app" gets rid of that error message!!!

How the f do I uninstall it fully??
[Huawei Watch] MCEITLIN:
Screen Overlay on Huawei Watch

I has the exact same problem and solved it by uninstalling Mini Launcher!
[Huawei Watch] Ramer:
I've had the same problem. I just about gave up! Thanks for the solution. Have you found a good replacement launcher, or just stock?
[Huawei Watch] pan_sattan:
you can install it again after allow few permissions what you need...
[Huawei Watch] K3MPO:
First, I uninstalled mini-launcher. This failed. Then I found the answer under the watches settings. Settings / Permissions / then give the programs access to your sensors or storage. Set the program that I wanted to have access, in this case, insta-weather to take my heart rate on the watch face; it worked. I then installed mini-launcher again (a great launcher program) and everything works fine. The permission settings are not on your phone they are on your watch.

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] drumz0rz:
Sounds like it's an issue with your Mac. I don't think you can import .dng's via iPhoto. I don't have a Mac so I can't give specific instructions, but can you browse your phone's internal storage via Finder like you can in Windows? I would just manually copy the files.

Otherwise, I would imagine Adobe Lightroom should be able to import the .dng's off the phone.

Hi,

I am trying to use Waze on my phone, but the app won't open as it keeps saying screen overlay detected. I have gone into my settings and turned off the overlay for all the apps apart from the system apps. But it is still not working.

I have tried searching on Google, and don't have any of the apps installed like twilight, luxe or Facebook which are supposed to be causing the problem.

Any other suggestions on how to fix it?

Cheers

Screen Balance (which adjusts screen colour balance/tint) and which I recommended in another thread creates an overlay.

How I finally fixed the "Screen Overlay" problem on my S7 edge.

The easiest fix, only full fix, I have found is as follows. When the screen overlay screen opens in settings, just turn everything marked on to off. Which by the way is the only thing you can do on this screen. Since I did all my apps, even the ones that weren't working, are working as they should. Hope this helps someone.

even when I tried to turn overlay off for all apps mine still was going wrong and I couldn´t use some apps...the only way I got this fixed was making a reset (from the configs options it self) from all my configurations, just configurations, not all data in the phone, it works fine for now...

now I´m with problem with my mobile data connection, I don´t know if it´s from my brand or my phone...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] dave7802:
The message about overlay detected i have seen and experienced a number of times.

BUT the only time this has occurred is when i was using SideSync

i.e. I am using it to Remote control the device using my PC

or am using my PC to display my Phone within my PC screen (So i can use my phone while using the PC)

The warning was being presented by some apps because SideSync was overlaying the screen to mirror it to my PC screen)

As soon as i disconnected this message stopped.

Not am not saying your using SideSync, But any other app you have installed that can mirror / allow remote access or displaying your phone screen on another device like PC may be causing the problem

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Kentthegreet:
I also have this same problem. There's no sense uninstalling apps just because some apps won't work in the existence of other apps? Does it mean we can't install the apps we want? It's just very irritating. Reconfiguring is endless. Do you think rooting my s7 will bury this Overlay issue forever? This is absolutely a nonsense security. The comfort of using your phone was simply blown away by such security. Can't Android develop an OS with both security and comfort? Looks like their development is going backwards.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] latino147:
I guess this only works when rooted
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] i-fathy:
I'm facing the same issue and it is related to "soft home" application which only sends me to home screen with a floating home button.

I understood that overlay allows application to appear on top of other apps, so applications which have floating buttons for example.

I just got my phone, so most apps are requesting permission when started for the first time, and each time I try to allow permission for an app I get this "screen overlay detected, turn it off to proceed"

I have to go to overlay and disable for soft home then come back to allow the other permission I was trying to allow

Then after giving the permission I go back to overlay and turn it on again for soft home

So this is "the workaround" I have found.

But this is really unacceptable behaviour to be the standard with android, I only buy android phone instead of ios because of the app freedom.

They really need to stop this stupid security check which can be stopped.

Does anyone know how to contact Samsung or Android developers about it?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] latino147:
Good luck with that. Luckily you CAN do something about it, but you'll have to root your phone. If you do you can install the above-mentioned xposed module which will disable this check.

I understand the safety aspect of this overlay thingie, but they should have added a whitelist for all apps you're certain off you want to allow overlay permission so you don't have to disable them each and every time!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] i-fathy:
That's indeed a great idea to make a whitelist

However I don't see the relation between giving an app the permission to access contacts, and that there are other apps using overlay permission

Anyway the white list would be great

Hope they'll listen
