[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Kpenguin.5284:
Hi,

Just got my OnePlus 6 yesterday and I'm already having an issue with it. As of today, I cannot download or update apps from the Play Store. They are just perpetually stuck in the "Downloading" state (screenshot below). I'm also getting the "Google Play Services won't run unless you update Google Play Services" notification from time to time. I've cleared cache and data, reset app preferences, and manually downloaded the latest Google Play Services APK, but it's still having the same problem. I've read guides that suggest uninstalling Play Services updates, then updating it again, but it isn't showing up in the device administrators list so I can deactivate it before I do that.

My phone is rooted through Magisk and has the bootloader unlocked.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Update: Gmail is not showing new emails. Not sure if this is related or not.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] strictlyphat:
Sounds like a factory reset is in order.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Kpenguin.5284:
Should I do that from settings, or use wipe in TWRP?
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] strictlyphat:
I believe u have to wipe in twrp and reflash.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] MrSteelX:
Just do factory wipe in twrp. You should be fine then. If not, then follow link for better help https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6-t3796665

Did you download the correct version of Google Play Services since you manually downloaded it? I've seen this if you've installed the incorrect version of Google Play Services on the device.

Link to 12.8.74 (040400-204998136)

Uninstall or disable the google app.

[Sony XA2 Ultra Questions & Answers] przemhb:
Is there a support for noise cancelling wired, 5-pin minijack headphones in XA2 Ultra? By support I mean does noise cancellation works i nXA2 Ultra with such a headphones?

For example for MDR-NC750 [link]

In my old Z2 when I connect noise cancelling headphones I get notification in the drawer and I immediately hear noise is significantly reduced.

In Settings->Sound->Accessory settings I have:

- Noise Cancellation settings, where I can choose noise type like Plane or Office,

- Headphones, where I choose type of headphones connected.

Is there such a feature in XA2 Ultra?

I have asked Sony and was told there is, but I doubt as it is missing in XA2, XA1 Ultra, which I was able to check so far.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Newrooter22:
Huawei has stopped their unlock codes for the bootloader, my question is, is there a way to get the unlock code through extracting the update.app file and seeing what code it would accept? It's hard to explain what I'm thinking.

The code used to be generated by a combination of the imei number and the build number. The imei number is unique to each motherboard so going with that either the motherboard or update.app files must be programmed to accept the code generated or have the code in it in order to check and accept the unlock code.

So if the code is already programmed into the phone would their be a way to extract the bootloader code from system files etc. Or see if the code is there.

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] superfastsss:
I thought about adding...if more request it I will add small one. I don't see the usage of being able to change the colors of every single ui element, just makes it bloated. If I add a ROM control I will add a small one.

Install the APK yourself, it's not hard to find ;)

Maybe I will make a aroma package for next update as a standalone ZIP, So it can be flashed and you can choose if you want any extra apps that I removed, like Cloud for example. If more request it.

by the way cant use substratum because buildprop shows device as pixel 2 which makes some apps buggy
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] superfastsss:
I will fix these for next version, Thanks for the feedback. Buildprop you can just change yourself back to SM-N950N or whatever your device originally was. I will look into the iris / fingerprint. Anyone else verify it's not working for them too?

Add it yourself. Out of the box no.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] SaadatM:
I fail to understand what dvfs has to do with the security features or in this context.

Dev probably deleted some important libs while cleaning the ROM or you had a "bad flash" I guess.

In either case, have you tried a fresh install and happen to have the same error?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] superfastsss:
This ROM has no such iris or fingerprint issues, I only now tested and I don't got any of them.

Works nice!

But there are a few some things there are bad: the PIE UI is not a real UI. It is the app Power Shade. And that causes bugs: sometime you pull down both notification panels, samsung and power shade. If you use fingerprint geatures its only work for samsung notification panel. And you ever running both UI at the same, this cost you (a little) more power, ram, cpu usage,...

Hello on my OP5 after the latest update (OxygenOS 5.1.4) the Play Store installed apps list is empty. This renders the auto-update function unusable. When I look for an app and update and/or install it that particular app is shown but anything else is still missing.

I have TWRP and root with magisk.

I have tried rebooting, clearing caches, reverting to factory and updating "google play services" and some other suggestions I have found online. Nothing has worked so far.

[Honor View 10 Questions & Answers] SilentBob:
I have been having problems setting custom notification sounds for some apps, but haven't really looked too much into it until now. What I have found is that apparently from Oreo stock Android allows you to change app notification sounds, and other notification settings, from within the Android system settings (Settings > Apps and notifications). This then makes it unnecessary for apps to accommodate these sound settings from within the apps themselves like they used to. Of course many Google first party apps, such as Messages and Gmail, have adopted this new method for managing notifications. However, it would appear that Honor/Huawei in EMUI 8 have stripped out the option to change the sound from within the app notification settings screen. The result appears to be that we are unable to set app specific notification sounds for many Google apps and any other 3rd party apps that have embraced this change in Oreo. Instead these just use the system wide default notification sound.

I am not aware of any official Honor or Huawei community where we can log bugs or change requests. So how do we make them aware that this is an issue that we care about?

I presume that this hasn't already been fixed on newer devices running 8.1?

It would be really good if someone could prove me wrong. Is there some other way that we can set custom tones on an app by app basis?

Thanks.
[Honor View 10 Questions & Answers] jenda.69:
Yup. This bugs me since I got my View 10... The function in Android Oreo is called Notification channels. EMUI supports them and shows these channels in the settings but option to change sound is for some reason missing.

There are couple of screenshots how function is supposed to look in this article: https://www.androidcentral.com/notification-channels

I wrote message to huawei's support (I think I found form on hihonor website?) and they didn't reply anything particulary useful ("you can change sounds in whatsapp!" - yeah, because it doesn't use these channels for sounds) but at least they promised they forward my "tips for improvement" to higher department, whatever that means.

Security updates

This product will no longer receive security updates.

https://support.motorola.com/us/en/softwareupgrade
[X Style (Pure) General] aybarrap1:
Ok. Not trying to be condescending, but most of us already figured that Lenovo would be dropping their support. It is almost 3 years since release and 2 years or so of support at most is pretty standard.

If the lack of support for security updates bothers anyone, there are 2 options available: custom ROMs or upgrade to a newer device. Personally, I think being smart about installing apps and basic personal good security habits should be sufficient to protect a user.
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
It is very unusual for any Moto device to get upgrades/updates after 24 months past release... In general figure that if it's been out 18 months, it's done. This is nothing unusual, if you expect more than that your kidding yourself.
[X Style (Pure) General] Andronikou:
RIP it was a good journey
[X Style (Pure) General] m+a+r+k:
Really? So on reading the above you just destroyed your phone?

Mine isn't dead, it's as good as the day I bought it and does 95% of what I want from a phone.

As aybarrap1 says intelligent informed use of your phone mitigates any security problems. It isn't any worse today than it was yesterday or last month!
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
This... As far as "security updates" go, they are largely just a marketing gimmick. I've written several post on why they are not realky important so I won't do it again.
[X Style (Pure) General] StankFiss:
If my moto didn't crap out., I would still be using it with out security updates. But I moved on to Pixel 2 xl. Glad the moto died now. Moved on to pixel 2 xl. Loving every minute of it. It will be a matter of time phones will be just way to expensive to keep up with next best thing. Phones are at there limit and are in a stale mate with technology. I wouldn't be surprised to see in the next 2 to 3 years a major slow down on purchases of phones. Then the rise of pay per security updates. Phone companies still making money.

Our mxpe/style can run O and P, the reason for it is greedyness of a company wanting you to "buy" the newest latest tech that comes with latest OS. BS, I want the latest features and energy efficiency OS.

Like m+a+r+k said, it's still like new, knock on wood. Mine is going on 2 1/2 or 3 1/2 years old depending on the production date. I'm not one that can afford a new phone so I am stuck with I got and happy I didn't pick the nexus at the same time the mxpe came out well because my mxpe is still rolling.

Anyways, I facebooked on Android story page of Android Pie and you do not want to know what I said I also tagged lenovo and motorola on this particular subject on that page, letting know what I think of them for doing this when the phone can run o and p just "cussing" fine.
[X Style (Pure) General] m+a+r+k:
If mine died I would probably go for a Pixel 2. They'll be fantastic bargains when the Pixel 3 comes out. My main device is a Pixel C and so I can't justify £500-800 for a phone which is essentially just my communication device and music/podcast player!

How did we get to the point where £800 is the norm for top devices? Crazy!
[X Style (Pure) General] acejavelin:
This topic has been beaten to death... It is what it is. It's purely a ROI thing, so I don't blame them honestly. Why invest hundreds of man hours in a device that 90% of users won't keep more than 2 years anyway?
[X Style (Pure) General] StankFiss:
I bought second hand. But the person owned if for little over 30 days so they couldn't return and I know the person. They just didn't like the vanilla android and the slight blue when looking at it more than a 45 degree angle. I got use to it and now don't even notice. Pixel 2 xl is a beast. Always reached 8 hr SOT with 15% to spare when I do run the heck out it. That's with 60% brightness all the time. Bought for half price.

Side note though. Yes you can run roms with O and soon P on the XPE but roms are glitchy. Every one I've run into is made by very good DEVS but they make it to their liking. DEVS will soon abandon the XPE just like all other phones. I would pay moto for OS updates but not security updates. Security updates like stated before is just to give some warm and fuzzy like you're safe. I don't keep credit cards on my phone. If they want my emails they can have them. I do not store anything on my phone that will benefit any thief.
[X Style (Pure) General] :
Android 7 on the Moto X Pure is great... I've been using 8.1 and now 9.0 on the essential phone and IMO Google has gone backwards more than forwards since 7.1.

If I hadn't picked up the Essential Phone for $250 on primeday I would use the Moto for another year... Or more. Definitely keeping it as a backup.
[X Style (Pure) General] StankFiss:
I agree. Lots of bugs still in 8.1.
[X Style (Pure) General] :
IMO 8.1 just didn't add much for the user and 9.0 is all about restriction, becoming more Apple like with a joke of a gesture navigation. So for me, 8+ is a big meh... I can happily live without them if I had to.
[X Style (Pure) General] aybarrap1:
LOL...I would love to see how they would implement android as a service. The core of android itself is Linux based so there is the first issue. Aside from that, with so many hands in the pot implementing their own stuff into android, I can't see any common ground really being reached...especially when it could be seen as colluding.

As are as device support ending by the 2 year mark, no surprise there. This is common practice in the industry and it will probably not change. In fact, with most devices being released today having the batteries not being user-replaceable, it just helps companies sell more devices. Anyone who is a moderate to heavy user can attest that the battery longevity considerably depletes in 2 years. I have known people to use phones 3 or more years if the battery was easily replaceable. The companies could not win with stopping updates, but they are because of diminishing battery life.

Personally I would not being willing to pay for OS upgrades. They should be provided for 18 to 24 months for free. If it works, and the apps I need work, then so be it. By the time the apps will no longer work with the older OS, the device is probably over 4 years since release and it is time to move on.
