[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] fury683:
Did you select the BT device from the list by tapping the magnifying glass? I have found that if I pair a device the name is the same but the profile won't work until I remove and add it again. Also, some have different modes. For example, my Bose BT headphones pair as "Bose SoundSport" initially, but then connect as "LE Bose SoundSport" after that, so profile trigger has both listed.

Another test I would do is to change the task actions to see if it's actually triggering the profile or if it's an issue with the task. I usually just do Alert > Flash and watch the screen when the profile should be triggering. If the flash works, something isn't working with the launch app action.

Hope this helps.

Edit: I guess I didn't clarify, the task I have with my Bose headphones launches Spotify and starts music (media control > next). It also sets the media volume to a comfortable level. The criteria for this profile is a variable (based on calendar to see if I'm at work or not) and BT connection.

I forgot it was there, but I use Secure Settings to wake the CPU when the task triggers. Not sure if this is still needed or not. I think it was needed at one point to launch with the screen off or something, but I haven't really changed this task for a few years other than updating the BT device name as described above.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] huviduc:
Thanks for the input! I am heading out of town for a few days but I'll look into your suggestions when i return ( i wont have my car with me so i cant do any testing). I do think the profile works because it shows as green when i turn my screen on and open tasker. It also works perfectly fine if i have my screen on then start my car.

I think it may be working now (successfully tested one time) but I will need to use a bit more to be sure. The only thing I noticed is when reinstalling, i was prompted to allow the application to run in the background and chose yes. When the app was transferred from my old phone and I imported the backup, i dont recall ever getting this prompt. Not sure where this setting is found other than at the prompt. I will report back once i am home and can test some more.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] huviduc:
okay so it doesn't appear to be working still. The task works fine when played manually, the profile runs the task successfully when the screen is on/off/locked. It does NOT work after phone has been idle for a while. I have battery optimization off for Tasker and when I check battery usage, I can see that tasker runs all day long. I have another task to dismiss email notifications at work and it works fine when the phone is idle.

Starting to test it with different actions like turning on the screen but I'm running out of ideas. Only other thought it Adaptive Battery....not very familiar with it.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] piccit:
Can you verify if the task runs at all? In other words, does Tasker successfully see the BT connection and activate the profile and the only thing that fails is Pandora playing?

If the profile actually kicks in, then it sounds like the phone needs to 'wake up' more before the Pandora action works.

I have a morning profile (runs based on time of day) that I had to add a wake screen step to to have all the actions work (I don't actually remember which action wasn't working -- it may have been that it didn't seen to run at all). I currently use the old Secure Settings plugin to do the screen wake because when I tried which auto- app has a screen wake action it didn't work.
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] fury683:
This leads me to believe the bit I added for Secure Settings to wake CPU is what makes it work any time? The profile I have is very similar; %ATWORK = TRUE && BT connected to Bose SoundSport. Secure Settings wakes CPU only 20 seconds, launches Spotify, waits 5 seconds, simulates media control "next" then sets the volume to 10.

Can't hurt to try..
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] huviduc:
i added a task to vibrate the phone after trying to launch pandora. The phone seems to vibrate every time but pandora will only start if the screen is on. Thought it may be lock screen related so i totally disabled it, same results. Ill mess around with the secure settings tip above, the fact that it vibrates every time makes me think its something else though. Attached some logs below. Each set contains all logs from profile active to profile inactive.

EDIT --> work around found. Removing log in case there are any personal details
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] huviduc:
DELETED
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] huviduc:
Comparing the logs in notepad++, they seem to be almost identical (with the exceptions of some of the timing of logs, had to move them around to match them up). The only difference I can see is the following lines and what appears to be Pandora starting up and exiting when it works ( events surrounded by #NLI: tickerText:). The first line says True when screen is on and the second line is missing when pandora failed to load.

oddly enough... installing Secure Settings and using it to launch the same Pandora activity seems to work (so far)

They're intrusive, distracting and annoying.

Thank you.
[MX Player] MXPlayer:
Thanks for sharing your concern with us. Unfortunately, there is no way to disable it at the moment. Indeed, the quick shortcut is an extension of the existing orientation and background play icons so that it can show the additional icons. By default, It will show only 1 icon (Similar to the previous behaviour) until or unless the other options are enabled. As several users are struggling to get the options through menus, it was implemented for their convenience.

However, we will highlight this with our relevant team and work towards providing a better experience to you.
[MX Player] yuppicide:
Yep. I don't like them either.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] yourbossdonpely:
The GPU is Mali g71 mp20 540mhz

It gets 133,000 in antuntu benchmark and on the Rankings I'm seeing another Samsung galaxy s8+ and my device name is shown as sm-g955f instead of Samsung galaxy s8+

Is this bad?

Should I return the phone?

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] JeffDC:
Your phone showing as a 955xxx is just fine, that is your model number. I don't recall the bench marks, and unless your phone seems to be lagging, I wouldn't worry about them.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theboldgeek:
Hi all,

I'm an icon pack developer and I've created cool icon packs to be used with the majority of Launchers.

Unfortunately, my icon packs are not compatible with Poco Launcher, installed on both MIUI and non-MIUI phones.

I think that there should be some line code to be put in the Manifest.xml of my icon packs, but honestly I don't know which tags/code to be used.

Can you please help me in understanding the correct code to use in order to make the icon packs to be compatible with Poco Launcher?

I will need something like this I suppose:

<intent-filter android:label="@string/app_name">
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>

Please note that the icon packs I've created are based on CandyBar-Dashboard framework.

Thank you so much!

[General Questions and Answers] Oisin_B:
My Huawei Y9 has recently started to intermittently stop recognising either SIM card in the dual sim slots. Once this happens I can restart the phone or set to aeroplane mode for a number of minutes and this usually resolves it for a short period before the exclamation comes again in place of the mobile reception.

I have confident of both SIM cards functioning well as I have tried them in another phone, and also tried a different SIM card in my phone and the error occurred again. So I am sure that the issue is with the phone.

I have followed the following steps but to no avail:

Restarting phone

Removing SIM cards

Checking other SIM cards

Running in Safe Mode

Clearing Android Cache via Recovery mode

Reset Network settings

Checked for IMEI (It is there when the card is working, and null when it isn't)

Have the latest updates installed

Other than a factory reset (which I don't want to do until I have exhausted all options), I am not sure what to do. The phone is only six months old and still under warranty, however it was bought in Cambodia and I am now living in Brazil so I don't think they have service options readily available here.

Any suggestions?
[General Questions and Answers] Mumiby2:
Hello Oisin

I'm facing the exact same issue here. It's started the day after the last update (FLA-LX1 8.0.0.124 (C185)). Please tell me if you have the same firmware.

Well, I also tried Factory reset and even flashing the same official firmware doesn't solve it. I talked online with Huawei support (from the app) they told me that It's a software issue and to do all kind of reset... But it was un vain.

From my point of view, the culprit seems to be an built-in app that ask for location or network Time. But every time it does the phone reject the sim as you said earlier. Note: It's still do it even with the location disabled (asking for network time)

I spotted the app last week, It's com.hisi.mapcon. As I'm typing this message, I decided to revoke this app authorisations to modify system parameters. I'll tell you if that solves the issue

Otherwise I'm planning to downgrade the firmware (the last step before I break this phone out of anger)

See ya

---------- Post added at 04:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:55 PM ----------

Revoking the authorisations didn't make it. Now I will debloat this app... It seems kind of useless while being troublesome
[General Questions and Answers] Mumiby2:
For now, I just disable location. And there's a little trick to keep your signal on. While disabling location, soon after you'll get a notification tile that the phone need location enabled. At this moment the signal will disappear. Don't enable the location just keep the notification as is. And toggle the airplane mode on for 10 secs. Then toggle it off. Tadaaa! Signal is back... It'll stay on as long as you don't erase the notification or enable location .... Still, if you reboot your phone, you have to do it again... This is just a "patchwork" while waiting for a solution but it works
[General Questions and Answers] Oisin_B:
Hi Mumiby,

Thanks for the help and reply.

I have FLA-LX2 8.0.0.126 (C636). I can't pinpoint the exact time the error began unfortunately. However your work around fixes the issues as you suggested. Thanks for that. Although as you said, it is only patchwork and not a long-term solution. Any idea if Hauwei are aware of this or likely to fix it?
[General Questions and Answers] Mumiby2:
Hi.

Well, I came here on xda to post this problem because Huawei didn't react to this issue. Maybe there's not enough people complaining about it to make a move. I bought my phone in Morocco and now I'm in Congo DR. There's no Huawei Customer Care here and reporting to the online service is sort of hopeless. As I told you I'm planning to downgrade the firmware so that I can give them evidence for the bug
[General Questions and Answers] Oisin_B:
OK, just to note, I can delete the notification of location services and the SIM error does not return. Only if I restart the phone or turn on location. I have passed this information on to Huawei Cambodia also.
[General Questions and Answers] Mumiby2:
Do you still have signal right now ? Maybe It's my imagination, it seems to me that when the phone asks for location it enable it for a few secs maybe to warm it up... I'm not sure about it but if the location app or the gps driver (maybe the radio) is the culprit then it does make sense. Logcat would be helpful for investigation.

I deleted the notification too. Let's see how long it last
[General Questions and Answers] Oisin_B:
Well last night the battery died and the phone was restarted. I left the location services off, and since restart the sim is working fine. So it is clear the sim not being recognised is directly related to the location services being on.
[General Questions and Answers] Mumiby2:
So we just have to wait an update from Huawei. Btw I still have signal without the notification... It's kind of weird because before around 20 minutes after deleting the notif' it would get back and kick out the signal .... Maybe we did find a better workaround ?
[General Questions and Answers] Mumiby2:
Hey Oisin

Does the workaround still work? Did you have some updates ?
[General Questions and Answers] Oisin_B:
Hi Mumiby,

Yes so some updates on my part. Firstly, after my last post I decided to turn on location services again to see how long it would take for the error to reappear and to gather proof of the error. Surprisingly, the error did not, and has not reappeared.

I also upgraded to the latest firmware a few days ago (.128) and all is still good.
[General Questions and Answers] Mumiby2:
Well It seems like the location needed to take a break ....

On my side I still don't have any updates coming, unfortunately I still can't enable the location without network crash but the signal stay on without notification. I hope I'll get an update soon.

By the way, I noticed that there's a lot of people viewing our topic but none of them react ...
[General Questions and Answers] Mumiby2:

Check your registry settings! Use KaiserTweak or Schaps' AdvanceConfig!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] krakout:
Yes, I know it must be something in the registry, but what? And, I thought of Tweak and AdvanceConfig but -guess what? They're not authenticated! Argh!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sherpa:
If you are technical, try this: Download KaiserTweak's latest XML file and open the file in Notepad. Then see what registry key(s) is(are) modified for this tweak.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] krakout:
Ah now - that's a great idea! But, do you know of any PC-based registry editor, since I cannot install one on my TyTNII?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] _Alex_:
If you're really technical, you can follow through with cmonex's way found here.
