[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronTechmonkey:
Some points to consider:

- Motorola's stock cameras in Moto stock ROM are nice, IMO nicer than CM/LOS cameras in CM/LOS ROMs.

- The LOS 14.1 camera does not perform well in general on 1GB RAM LOS devices (3 that I've tested).

- There it is a specific issue with LOS on 1GB gigabyte Osprey devices that makes the generally poor camera performance even worse (some camera activities may kill background app that should not be). You can find more about that by searching the LOS 14.1 Osprey development thread for posts containing: lmk, low memory killer, minfree, apps, kill.

If you have a 2GB RAM Osprey with LOS these issues may not occur. If you have a 1GB Osprey with LOS you may want to install additional camera app. On my 1GB Osprey I've manually installed an old Moto stock camera app which is not as nice as the newest Moto stock camera and cannot save images to the external SD but it performs much better than the native LOS camera.

Active Sync / Exchange

Hi,

I just found a comment, which is almost a year old, saying that the Exchange-connectivity does not work. Has this been fixed? Can I set up an exchange account on LOS 14.1?

thx for your help
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronTechmonkey:
It would be interesting to see the source of that comment for more perspective. Could you provide a link to it?

Also there are many potential obstacles (some intentional) to connecting an Android device to an Exchange server, especially an enterprise server so...Have you ever successfully used Exchange Services on Android before?

If this is indeed an LOS issue you might might be able to find previous reports and resolutions by searching LOS Jira https://jira.lineageos.org/. For more recent things you could search the changelogs: General: https://www.cmxlog.com/14.1, Osprey: https://www.cmxlog.com/14.1/osprey.

Having never used Exchange services on Android I'm speaking more from the Exchange server side of things but perhaps there is someone here who has used them on Android or has at least tried to and can shed more light on this. My Exchange and Android experience have never overlapped and I'm now wondering about this as well.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schneich:
Good morning IronTechmonkey, thanks a lot for the very quick response. I found this post: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70176795&postcount=2001

I have been using the Exchange sync for a couple of years to sync "google calender app" and "Gmail app" with our server in the office. In most of the times, this works perfectly fine. Recently, the stock rom gave me some errors: the exchange wants to define some security policy on the phone, which doesnt seem to be supported. (Other android-devices with same android version 6.0.1 still seem to work.) So, at the moment, I am not able to set up an exchange-account on the phone. (thats the reason, why I am interested in LOS...)

My gf's Moto G 2015 (osprey) suddenly went into bootloop while she was updating it to the Oct 12 version via OTA. I'd have just wiped and installed the ROM again via twrp if it was my device but she has important information on some apps and she doesn't remember if those data are synced or not.

Any way to recover data from the device?
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronTechmonkey:
FYI, "Ambient Display" has nothing to do with display brightness but rather has to do with waking lock-screen under certain conditions. It is the "Adaptive brightness" (auto-brightness) and LiveDisplay settings that are at play here and they have been working fine on my LOS Osprey device including the latest Osprey build from October 12, and there don't seem to be any reports of this being a ROM issue (hence this reply in Q&A thread).

Also, Note: Although it may not be obvious, the system maintains 2 separate brightness sliders, one for manual brightness and the other "Adaptive (Auto) brightness" and it presents the one that is appropriate to the mode that is presently in use. In order to change the range of Adaptive brightness, then "Adaptive brightness" must first be enabled and then the slider would be adjusted (or else the slider would adjust the manual brightness instead).

Assuming clean flash with no 3rd party mods or utilities that might affect display setting, then adjusting brightness settings might help:

- Settings > Status bar > Brightness slider (enabled).

- Settings > Status bar > Auto Brightness (enabled).

- Swipe down to see status bar controls.

- Tap sun icon at right side of brightness slider so it has an "A" in it.

- Move slider to right.

The preceding should increase the range of auto-brightness (without affecting manual brightness setting). The following LiveDisplay settings might give it a bit of a boost by tweaking the color.

- Settings > LiveDisplay > Display mode > Outdoor (bright sun)" (just for testing after which, back to Automatic)..

- Settings - Display "Live Display = enable "Automatic outdoor mode"
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sidney Sol:
In Moto E (condor), ambient display brightness level is the same as set in brightness slider.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronTechmonkey:
Again... "Ambient display" has nothing to do with this. There is no "Ambient display" brightness (and we are talking about Osprey).

How well does this run on 1gb 8gb versions ?
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronTechmonkey:
Thanks for reposting here for the Q&A feedback. There is information to share which would bog down the development thread.

As to RAM: There is something about memory or processor management specific to 1GB Osprey devices that results in lower performance than other 1GB devices. For instance; taking panoramic camera pictures and performing some other actions in the camera will kill other apps. There are some settings tweaks which partially address this and are described in that ticket but even with those I use an old version of the Moto stock camera which performs better.

As to storage: Something else seemingly unique to 1GB Osprey device is that system storage has 1GB more space and user has 1GB less space. This effectively means 1GB less space for installed apps on Opsrey than older Moto G (Peregrine) which also has 1GB RAM.

Whether the ROM runs well for you in general would depend on how you use the device.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sidney Sol:
Thanks for the great help ?
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adityak1303:
Sorry for going off topic but some ROMs out there (based on LineageOS) allow us to change "Ambient Display" brightness by either:-

a) Set ambient display brightness to same level as that in the brightness slider.

b) Set a custom ambient display brightness which may or may not be the same as that in the brightness slider.

So it might be that [MENTION=7858717]Sidney Sol[/MENTION] is referring to that setting which is unavailable in stock lineageOS.

Norifications

I Have a Majority of my Apps on the sd card notifications aren't working for these apps is there a way to fix this or is this a sacrifice when using external storage. Apps on the Internel Storage Work fine e.g Gmail, Magisk, Messages
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronTechmonkey:
Not off topic but, again and again: "Ambient Display" triggers notification based on sensor activity and has absolutely nothing to do with brightness. It seems as if you are misusing the word "AmbientDisplay" when you mean "Adaptive Brightness" or "auto-brightness". Although "AdaptiveBrightness" relies in a technical sense on ambient light sensors, the brightness function is called "Adaptive Brightness" or by its old name "auto-brightness".

Assuming you mean "adaptive brightness" that is exactly what I described in my previous post. If you are referring to a 3rd slider that is specifically for "AmbientDisplay Brightness" (other then manual brightness and adaptive brightness sliders) I'd like to see a screenshot of that.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adityak1303:
I'm aware of the differences between Ambient Display and Adaptive Brightness. Ambient Display is like a black and white version of the lockscreen which shows notifications. I know that.

And some ROMs like Resurrection Remix (which I assume you haven't tried) allow us to set a custom brightness level for AMBIENT DISPLAY.

The reason I said I was going off topic is because that feature does not exist in Lineage OS but exists in other ROMs. Hope you understand.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronTechmonkey:
Thanks for clarifying. I've tested RR (was years ago) but never saw that feature. I did understand what you meant but there is just no such thing as "brightness level for Ambient Display" because "Ambient Display" has nothing to do with brightness. If RR (or anyone else) is using the term "Ambient Display" for anything other than "AmbientDisplay", well that is just foolish and a source of confusion. IMO, that would be more accurately described as brightness level for LiveDisplay.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adityak1303:
Yeah I know it sounds crazy but we actually can change the brightness of Ambient Display. More accurately, we can make the text (notifications and clock) which is shown in white brighter (or dimmer). And there actually is a 'brightness slider' for Ambient Display hidden under the settings. I'd show it to you but now I'm on Unofficial Lineage 15 by Alberto97. But I'll be sure to show it to you when I get the chance.:)

I think I'll end this here cause now I'm not talking about Lineage OS at all.:good:

a) when i attempt to open locked app instead of asking to draw the pattern it gives vibration and shows a "exclamation mark enclosed with in a triangle" clicking on which displays screen to draw pattern.

b)unable to disable vibration with "protected apps" feature.

c)suggest how to lock add new tiles option.

d)suggest how to add more tiles (like screentimeout) not present by default without 3rd party app.

2) Till when nightlies continue !!! when can we expect monthly stable releases?

3) Is moto g3 xt1550 dual sim, screen heating issues are due to hardware bug or software bug?

Phone key-presses not recognized with IVR system

I have a very strange problem. The Automated Voice Response system (IVR), in particular for the Lenovo Repair Center, you know, those company systems where you Press 1 to speak to billing, Press 2 for tech support, etc, does not recognize my Moto G (2015) key-presses and just hangs up on me. Stranger, I tried with other companies and it works correctly. Now beyond stranger I tried with my friends stock Samsung and it works OK with the Lenovo Repair Center.

I first noticed this with the 10-19 release. I then updated to the 10-26 release and I still have the problem. I am not saying this is a Lineage issue or a regression issue because I never tried this number before. It is almost like the OS or hardware is partially bad, or their IVR system is very sensitive, or maybe I can't find a setting somewhere. I see that many on the Internet have fixed this by changing the DTMF tone length from short to long, however there is no such option (Not sure the lack of this option is Lineage, hardware or phone carrier related. I have Straight Talk which uses AT&T as it's carrier). This is so strange that I don't know where to go from here.

However, it would help to narrow down the problem if someone with a Moto G XT1540 with either the 10-19-2017 or 10-26-2017 build date would call the following number and let me know if it recognizes the menu key-presses (1 or 2):

877-273-7835

EDIT: Motorola replied to me that in the stock OS, there is an option to set the DTMF length. "You may go to Dialer > Menu (3 dots on top right) > Settings > Sounds and vibration > Dialpad tone length > Set to Long.". Is this something that can be added to Lineage?

ghost app spending credits

Is anybody else having issues with Radio Fm app?

During my work time, it's forbidden to use cellphone, thereby i don't use wifi neither network data... but i've noticed an unusual credit spending (i have a pre-paid account).

After some observation i noticed that Radio Fm app was changing phone state and connecting to network data. I think that under this app mask, some system apps started small (a few kbs) that i shouldnt't even notice, but since my cell network charges me for the whole day after usage, it spent my money. It's a clever trick, because Titanium Backup couldn't remove this app, and no changes in permissions changed this behavior. :eek:

I am not saying that i want to block everything in my phone, just want the phone to obey me, like when i want to turn networks on, it turns on, but when i switch it off, it should stay this way. :(

it has been happening for many versions, i am in 20171012 build. In earlier builds i could remove this app using Titanium Backup and solve the problem but from now on i think it's time to find a definitive solution.

Sorry for the english, if someone have a tip to help with my issue, i'd appreciate.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rahul9999:
No such issue noticed.. i would prefer to do clean flash with latest open Gapps once & check.. make sure to wipe system, data, cache & dalvik, also while doing first setup choose a fresh start instead of restore backup.. take a necessary backup before flashing..
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IronTechmonkey:
I've always wondered if the FM radio went on line to get the station details. I assume it must do so but I've never seen direct evidence. As to indirect evidence: a firewall that I use (Afwall+) indicates that the FM Radio is bundled with several core services which require Internet access so perhaps it gets the station information quietly in the background opportunistically when connected to data.

I've never seen FM radio (or anything else) invoke data connection when wifi and mobile data are disabled (except when intentionally running commands in Terminal or via Tasker, Secure, Settings, etc.). If there is something native to the ROM that automatically enables mobile data or wifi I'd be interested to learn what it is. If it is a 3rd party thing... then there may be the source of the problem or at least a path to an answer.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edinho376:
Yeah, i also started using AFWall+ trying to stop my network data leak, but it looks like it can't rule on Radio FM cause (you can see in app info) since it doesn't require any permissions, you cannot deny any permission; although like you observed, it bundles all apps listed below

Advanced Settings

Settings Storage

The functionality has worked for me before, so I think it is a regression, but I cannot say exactly when it was introduced. This is due to the reason that I have not updated every nightly but only some of them, lately because of the WPA2 vulnerability.
