editing this build.prop destroys my camera on nougat :'(

Any idea why the camera app starts crashing after editing the build.prop?

Or anything I can do to fix it? :)

Happened on Beanstalk 7.0 & now on Crdroid 7.1.

---------- Post added at 02:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:19 PM ----------

Adding the following lines or editing the existing ones via this app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.apps.build.prop.editor&hl=en

Did the trick for me, after editing install the Google Beta app APK and clear the google app cache, I did a total clear of the app.

Rebooted and the assistant suddenly popped up :)

I also had to change my system language to English coming from dutch.

This seems to me to have caused the method to not work for me. -> assistent = English android system language only i think..
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] naveen.yadav1:
Added these to build.prop & installed latest google app beta, cleared all data for google app & google assistant working fine. no issues in existing rom functionality.

Nougat for Ascend Mate 2 MTL203

So this post caught my eye... Is someone working on Android 7.0 for the Ascend Mate 2 or is it already out there?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] ScoobSTi:
SHM, a dev who brought us TWRP and a few 6.0 ROMs, is working on 7.0. Understandably, he doesn't like people asking for ETA's so he'd prefer us not to bug him.

Also, since CM officially supports our phone, won't we be getting an official CM14 as well?

[MENTION=6893467]MT2-User[/MENTION] what's your feel for this beta rom is it worth a try, how easy is it to go back to your cm13 back, and this new version of twrp how does it work???

Thanks for any info you can share...
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] MT2-User:
[MENTION=3977438]nate5711[/MENTION]: I think this CM14.1 runs more smooth than CM13 (official). It hasn't crashed yet; previously CM13 rebooted occasionally. The battery life is very nice also: 9-10 hours SOT, similar to CM13.

I have been using TWRP by Matt (this CM14.1 Developer) for a while, so I didn't see any problem with it (the previous version is 3.0.M5-0 released on July 19; https://android.cmphys.com/twrp-mt2/). The only thing is TimeService which led to inaccurate time in TWRP, but I always named Nandroid backup myself which is much shorter while with more information. It has been fixed as Matt stated:good:

I did make a Nandroid backup of CM13 using TWRP-3.0.M5.0 and I am sure there is no problem to switch between this CM14.1 and CM13 without loss of data. I tried both clean and dirty flash of CM14.1 (over CM13), and currently I've been running the dirty-flashed one flawlessly. I tried switch between CM14.1 and CM13 with TWRP and there's no problem at all.

Sure, as I mentioned earlier, LiveDisplay night mode doesn't work. There's no CMTE either. Otherwise everything is good on my end.

Thanks to Matt for his wonderful job! :good::good::good:

BTW, Matt has his CM13-Dec 26 nightly available to us also and he said the Camera (CM13) has been fixed. TBH, I haven't tried his CM13-20161226 yet since I am very satisfied with his CM14.1-20161225.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] hopkins31:
Dirty flashed runs fine also had to re flash gapps to get it to fully boot but other then the missing theme engine it seems way smoother then the last good build of cm 13 great work matt and thanks for keeping this phone alive
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] MT2-User:
Yes, arm 7.1 GApps required even for dirty flash over CM13.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] nate5711:
Thanks for the helpful info, dl the rom and I'm very much enjoying it..
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] beastonprowl:
Thank you for providing the latest build. I have installed it and seems to be working fine. Need to use it for a few days to cycle the battery to know how good is the backup.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] divhandyman:
Thank You so much for the update so far is very smooth. Is anyone else having the camera randomly popping up during a phone call? I have tried to download gapps again and reflashed still having the issue. Am i missing something in the settings? :confused:
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] beastonprowl:
Disable the tap to wake setting under display will stop the camera popping up.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] divineBliss:
Haven't seen that issue on mine and using YouTube 13.06.53.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] divhandyman:
Im running the same version of Youtube. I have not this issue on any other builds, and have dirty flashed them all up until now, maybe its time for a clean wipe and reinstall.:confused:
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] divhandyman:
Update, I reflashed installed newest gapps and wiped cache, and seems to have fixed the issue.:good:
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Bratzilla:
Is it safe to dirty flash a gapps update? Sorry for the dumb question; it's been a while and I can't see to find an answer when I do a search.

Running LineageOS 14.1 (dated Sept. 2017). Thanks!
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Wmateria:
I've never tried that before and i've been flashing for a long time. i only flash rom updates. That's a good question. Doesn't google play update automatically?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] Bratzilla:
Hmm... not sure. The GAPPS package consists quite a few elements. I don't even really understand how it blocks my FM audio. :confused:
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] divineBliss:
You think gapps is blocking FM audio? If I fc the FM radio app and restart it, FM audio will work - at least it does on my phone.

***EDIT*** Dirty flash didn't work for me. FC's Pixel launcher, Keyboard, Messenger etc...
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] dkblue:
Test, if I could post.

I did both clean and over the cm13 flash, both work great. I could not get the app automatic restore from google backup, so I needed to re download apps one at a time. By the way, could not get post from the phone. message said <post created fail>

New learner first post, thank you all.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] MT2-User:
Did you flash Gapps 7.1 right after CM14.1 before rebooting system?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] MikeyLee:
Yes I did. Had to do a clean install. Now I have another issue. Installed SuperSU and updated the binary through TWRP and now I am stuck on the CM boot screen. Cannot get back into recovery either. Holding the power down until it shuts off it re starts again on it's own.

**EDIT** Got it to boot into recovery. Wiped Cache and Delvik. Still not booting. I guess this thing doesn't play well with SuperSU. Wiped Data, still nadda. Had to do another clean install.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] MT2-User:
I guess SuperSU is the problem too.

I haven't had any issue since I did dirty flash over CM13.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] MikeyLee:
I have an issue that maybe someone can help with? In my status bar there is a # that from my experience usually indicated the SU Binary needs to be updated. Last time I tried to update it I ended up having to do a clean install. Can someone tell me what the deal is with SU on this ROM? That # flickers when I try to install V4A drivers and without Viper for me this is useless. I have followed the Nougat install method for V4A but still do not have it.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] robertbarber:
The # sighn means that the built in root management app that CM includes is active. You can access it by going to developer options once you enable them and selecting manage root access to get to privacy guard, the app which manages root for CM if you have root access enabled in developer options.That symbol is active any time a root app is being used to let you know that one is running. ROM's that use SuperSU don't have that in the status bar. As far as it flashing when you install viper or how to go about doing that I can't help you with that as I don't use viper.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] MikeyLee:
Cool, thanks. If anyone can help with the Viper issue I would greatly appreciate it. Unlike the stand alone Super SU app, I cannot get the built in app to see the Viper App. So when I try to do anything with Viper it basically just doesn't function or throws an error saying it has not obtained Root. There's no option that I see to manually grant root access to it through that pre installed app.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] MikeyLee:
Does anyone know if the built in Privacy Guard can be disabled safely? This thing is killing me with not granting root access to certain apps that should have it.

Hope that helps
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] NightCrayon:
How is battery life? this looks very interesting.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] pi22356:
So far off a full battery 1.25 days....
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] NightCrayon:
Thats not too bad. I went ahead and installed the rom on my device and i really gotta say, i am very impressed. Lineage OS runs amazing. I can even run two apps at the same time, i am really glad this device has a big screen now. Performance wise it runs very smooth and I've encountered no strange errors or bugs, I will continue to test this ROM out and see if its good enough to be a daily driver, but so far so good. I am using Lineage OS version 14.1-20170125-NIGHTLY

On that note I had another quick question, if i update to the newest lineage os nightly through the updater (Settings>about phone>Lineage OS updates) does it wipe all data?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] nate5711:
Updated TWRP here: https://android.cmphys.com/twrp-mt2/
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] rahulll46:
No, it doesn't wipe any data, although you probably had already figured that out....

For some reason when I use Lineage 14.1 I get poor performance on games like Clash Royale but with mdmower's old CM14.1, everything was butter smooth....
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] NightCrayon:
That's really strange, I just installed clash royal and everything is running very well, having no stuttering problems or anything. Even from the SD card (formatted as internal) I'm running Lineage OS 14.1-20170131-nightly. Which nightly are you using?

Side note: the only thing I changed from stock was removing trebuchet launcher as i was having a different issue with app icons disappearing from my home screen, I am using nova launcher instead.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] rahulll46:
I'm using 2/14 and if I use Nova, the icons are REALLY blurry if I make them 50% or 150% they are blurry no matter what so I use Apex instead... Sad because I payed for prime ;-;

If I play Clash Royale, the game fps goes down to like 40 when it should be 60, I can only get 60 if I use dpi changer, gl tools doesn't do anything for me.

I want that copy of CM 14.1 so bad, I tried using google cached websites but it seems the link for the download is down ):
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] NightCrayon:
What tool are you using to test fps?

Also, that is a very strange problem with nova launcher, I'm not sure why you are having those issues. Maybe a bad flash?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] beastonprowl:
Latest nightly seems to bootloop for me. Anyone else having the same issue?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] MT2-User:

If I use the stock android web browser, when i'm typing ALL my characters are invisible until I "tap" or "touch" the screen...what is causing this!? Any intelligence would be greatly appreciated!
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] NightCrayon:
You should probably be using the Latest Lineage OS as this version of CM Nougat is discontinued. The organization has recently changed the name to Lineage OS.

Candy 7.1.1

For those who would like to try something other than Lineage since Matt has stepped down as maintainer for (https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/164413/) it you can try Candy 7.1.1. To be clear SHM is not doing these builds, it is someone else on the Candy Team. I wont be able to provide much if any support on these builds since I don't have the phone anymore, I gave it to a family member when I got my Axon 7. I was using the builds up until my Axon 7 came in and didn't have any problems at all. As far as Xposed or other tweaks I didn't install them so I don't know how well of if they will work with these builds. I can't tell you how often these builds will be put out since I am not the one doing them nor is SHM. Its up to the person making them. All I can say is to check this site https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=151179 every so often to see if a new build is posted. The newest build there has the March security updates as well as we have Magisk instead of SuperSU for root. (https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445) Also rootless OMS (https://plus.google.com/+NicholasChumCDT/posts/M1ec5crM1bY) has been added as well so you can theme your device even without root. OMS will still work even if you are rooted as far as I know because I have some themes applied on my Axon and it has the same OMS commits as the Mate does. There are probably some more changes but those are the biggest ones that I can think of. One last note, I don't know how long the Candy builds will be coming out for because I am not the one doing them, its someone on the Candy Team as I have stated above. Its up to him how long new builds will come out.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] divineBliss:
Thanks for this information. :)

If there's any way to learn more about the ROM developer or more about this ROM related to the Ascend Mate 2, please share that with us.

I'm still using CandySix, so would love to try this new CandySeven.

Is there anything you miss about your Mate 2 vs the Axon 7?
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] nate5711:
Just downloaded it, its got the google assistant install in it liking it already..

Thanks for the info and link..
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] robertbarber:
The easiest way to learn more about the ROM developer is to search for his GitHub name which is gimmeitorilltell. As for more about the ROM itself the Gerrit in which changes are located is at https://gerrit.bbqdroid.org/#/q/status:open which will give you an idea of what changes are being made. As far as your last question I do miss an actual nav bar some since the Axon has capacitive buttons underneath the screen and the phone is smaller in size than the Mate but you get used to both pretty quickly. Also the battery is not as big but with Quick Charge 3.0 it charges back up pretty quickly. This page will list some more of the features but overall its a great phonehttp://www.gsmarena.com/zte_axon_7-8067.php.

Bluetooth Candyseven

Ive been running the latest version of Candyseven for about a week, today I tried using the bluetooth for the first time, and it was not connecting at times and then disconnecting and reconnecting. Anyone else experiencing this?:confused:
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] nate5711:
This is not happening to me using my blueant q3 headset..
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] divhandyman:
This phone has always been a little quirky with Bluetooth on different builds. Tried to connect to another device and no go on that one at all. Maybe I should try a clean flash :confused:
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] chipndale2:
I think I was on CM13. I wanted to upgrade to Lineage but unfortunately that isn't an option anymore.

I use the pico GApps package.

I don't know about the knock on/off... never used that.

So far so good... except for the stock clock and phone apps. They are crashing. I had to find replacements: Alarm Klock on F-Droid (which is real nice) and the Google Phone app. For now, I'm willing to stick with Candy and see where it goes.
