Come on...it's right under Progess
"Back to SDK Dialer. Old one was causing problems and did not keep call log."
So far install and settings are all flawless as far as I can tell. Quality job!
Sound > Volume bug is fixed
Lock Timer bug is fixed
Lock button background on both password and pin is fixed
The virtual keyboard still doesnt vibrate when vibrate is checked.
Also noticed a lot of the options that were in Call Settings are now no longer there.
I'm guessing this is due to the dialer being changed out?
Other than that, so far so good!
Is it necessary to wipe data & cache, then factory reset again even if already on fission?
Would just rather not....
Keep up the good work boys!
Also you might want to re-mention about not using themes.
my gps will not work. Weather and toggle widgets, weatherbug elite , and others will not find me. Tried a reboot didn't work. Came from the beta just flashed this this morning. Followed all directions wiped twice and the factory reset anyone else having this issue or do I need to reflash.
Ps I noticed swype works in this build great work guys
Check the gps toggle again. I've had gps work with three different apps.

GPS is working fine. It's coarse location (wireless networks) that's not working for me. If I turn off GPS, I can't get a location.
To do step 15 (Perform a Factory Reset through Android - Settings > Privacy > Factory Data Reset. Wiping Cache and Data from recovery is not enough.)
Am I suppose to reboot the system prior to this step?

It isn't possible unless you boot first, is what I figured.
"Do not perform any type of restore using any backup programs, yes this includes Titanium Pro and others!"
So this essentially renders Titanium Pro useless then? I can't restore any apps at any time from my sd card?
I followed every step precisely, including the backup and all of the cache/data clearing and android factory reset, and so far none of my market downloads have initiated. I'll get back to you on it if they do.
Not trying to *****, but I can't really give much feedback until I can see how well everything runs with my setup.

By default you'll be in USB mass storage mode if plugged in. If this is the case the market won't download. (Found this out the hard way.)
Fixed it by going to Charge-Only.
Id say u can backup/restore any market/downloaded non-system apps with titanium. Just don't restore items such as calender/email/sms/settings etc. most of these things are backed up and restored to your google account anyhow.
It would seem contact ringtones do not work
The market download on fresh boot takes awhile.. anywhere from 15min+ you can speed the process up by manual cancels and manual downloads.

Each time I flash a new rom the market starts downloading all my apps automatically upon first market sign-in. Is there a way to stop this? I do not want it happening.
It seems if you skip the initial Google sign-in, and then add it after the initial process, you won't have all your apps downloaded. At least that is what has worked for me.
Is there any other way? I guess I can try this from now on and see how it works for me. Thanks

You can also go into the my apps tab in the market and stop individual apps from downloading, you gotta be quick though.
ive never seen an option to turn off automatic restore in initial setup. other than in the settings menu AFTER the setup which doesnt help. also wasnt there some issue where if you didnt do the initial setup it cause problems on the g2x?
nevermind......

*Off the top of my head
After a factory reset, sign in, uncheck a box that allows backing up to your gmail account. If you read the description, it would tell you that the "backup" will be restored if you decide to get another phone. (This screen should be after the screen with two check boxes. Don't zoom through it, you just might miss it lol)
I uncheck that box every time, but it still attempts to reinstall things. I think it is because I once backed up when the feature was first available. I especially think that because it downloads apps I quit using when I still had my G1.
Hello,
I just got a Nexus 5 phone. Following the instructions in this forum, I was able to unlock the bootloader, get a TWRP Recovery and root the phone. Everything went fine. Then it was time to transfer my apps and data from my old Sony Xperia S. With Titanium Backup Pro on both devices, I made a backup of all apps + system data. Everything ok till that too. Then I restored this backup in Nexus 5. Everything seemed fine, all of the apps were in the app drawer, the ones I opened worked just fine.
But after the first reboot, I get an annoying "Unfortunately process com.android.phone has stopped working" when the home screen loads. No matter what option I choose (Ok or Report), this dialog box just pops up again and again. In the milliseconds between two of this dialog boxes, I can unlock the lockscreen and browse normally (apart from the annoying little box that pops up all the time, of course).
So, what's the best option in this case? Will the factory reset from Android itself solve it, do I need to use the Custom Recovery or can I just go straight to flashing the factory image?
Cheers,
never restore system apps or system data with titanium backup, or this will happen. you can try wiping data in your recovery, that should fix it, but it will wipe your phone clean.
You can't restore system data. You can't even do this from one rom to another let alone different phones
In titanium untick "system" in the edit filters screen.
Then go to the restore screen and select restore missing apps and data.
Then go through each one double checking there are no system apps there and if there are, untick them.
..and yes, you must factory reset now

Guess that's what happens when you trust some Lifehacker article without enough knowledge. It was the system data, then. I unticked every app I hadn't installed by myself.
Concerning the Wipe option, I understand that by wiping the phone clean, that means even the apps that came pre-installed, correct? Chrome, Google Play, the Camera app, the phone app, etc?
No just your apps and your app data and system data

Thanks a lot for the quick answers. :good:
I'll wipe the phone and get back here later to report if everything went well.
Cheers,
Updating, in case somebody goes through the same problem: the factory reset was extremely fast and solved everything. Funny thing is, when I got home and checked the phone, the angry little box wasn't showing anymore. Don't know what happened, but did the reset anyway to be sure.
Thanks again to rootSu and simms22. :good:
Just go settings /apps /all and clear data in contacts and contact storage

I had weird problems with Moto G3 touch screen.
1. Touch screen hangs when I restart phone and immediately swipe for notifications.
2. Sometimes home buttons are not working.
3. Sometimes whole touch screen doesn't work. Lock and unlock solves issue.
4. This is really weird. When home button is not working. I press and hold for a moment. Google App starts and all 3 buttons start working.
5. Notification window automatically flashes at regular interval without swiping.
I don't understand. I tried to debug.. It seems software issue not hardware issue. Please help.
Sounds like a lag problem... memory full or runaway app... I would first do a cache wipe, then check memory usage and make sure it isn't almost full, then look at storage because I have seen phones do this when internal storage is very limited.
Thanks for reply. One more problem added

I have done factory reset twice. I always keep enough space in phone. I cleanup everyday. Memory issue can never be problem for me. I dont keep unnecessary data. Now i have observed one more problem. Notification window automatically flashes at regular interval without doing anything.

Hmm... the whole notification bar is flashing at regular intervals? This really sounds like a software issue... Are you stock?
Honestly, at this point you need to absolutely verify hardware or software... I would factory default, and skip everything in setup, do not add Google account (important!) or restore anything, except login to WiFi. Does it still do it? If so, it is probably hardware and you need to RMA it to Moto, if it is OK then it's a software issue in one of your apps.
Any screen protector or case? Sometimes they are known to do weird things on this device, especially tempered glass ones.

Thanks for quick reply. I agree with you. It's software issue. It works fine in safe mode. Actual hardware is fine. May be I can try factory reset one more time without adding google account. Okay. I will get back to you once I do reset. Thnx buddy.

Add the Google account but don't restore apps... Setup all the Google services and test, if it's OK then start adding apps a few at a time. If it starts acting up its a system settings issue, factory reset and add Google account but don't restore any services at all and continue to setup like a new device.

Ok. Noted.
Hi there, your comments would be greatly appreciated.
To keep data, I flash the whole 8.0 stock firmware after removing -w.
After using days, the phone can't be easily unlocked, even by power key or by FPR. Sometimes, I need to wait a more long time for the phone waking up.
Sometimes the incoming call can't even wake it up, I can't answer the call.
Have reflashed the firmware with -w available then restore all my app via titanium backup. the issue persists.
Please help! How to tell which app prevent the phone from waking
Try factory reset and not restoring data with titanium rather Google backup
Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
Thanks. have tried clean install. everything is fine before restoring data with titanium.
So there must be some app which prevent phone from waking. Is there any chance of find this app.

If the issue persists you could give a list of the apps you install if you don't mind.. maybe we can figure out which one affects the unlocking. :highfive:

I'm having a similar issue, but in my case I'm having trouble waking up the phone after it's been unplugged from the charger. If I use my phone all day after a full charge (and after rebooting), it's silky smooth, but the second I plug it in, the issue starts until I reboot again.
It might be extreme, but I've done this multiple times on previous phones. I restore half my apps, say the ones starting with A through M. If there's no problem, then I install half of what's left, say N through S, etc. Keep doing this as a process of elimination. Yes it's tedious but eventually you can narrow down the problem app and/or app data. You could also try restoring all of your apps without data, and if there's no problem then restore the data for half of the apps, etc.
Otherwise, as @PunishedSnake said, don't restore data (or even apps) at all with Titanium Backup. It sucks but we all occasionally have to do that.
I've since factory reset my phone with minimal app installation (no Google restoring of apps), but am still experiencing this frustrating glitch, even with/without unplugging the charger and rebooting.
Debating whether or not I should root (and downgrade).
Safe Mode fixed the problem. I will try to find the apps which prevents the phone from waking up.
How can I do this.

I think I've found the problematic app in my case. I've been using immersive mode through Custom Navigation Bar and after disabling it, my phone has become responsive again. After double checking the app's description in the Play Store, it seems the dev hasn't updated it for Oreo yet.
#FirstWorldFragmentationProblems
Edited: In order to fix this problem, simply use Tasker to disable Custom Navigation Bar's Immersive mode whenever you turn off the screen, and re-enabling it either when you unlock the phone, or only for specific apps (which is what I do).
Yes. try to enable immersive mode via this command
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=apps,-com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
now everything is fine.

Glad to hear you were able to resolve your problem. In my case, I actually don't want immersive mode activated all the time so I may still have to root in order to selectively choose which apps I apply this command to.

Hi everyone,
Eversince I updated my phone the GPS is not working, Google maps is not giving a location, but when I downloaded GPS toolbox it seems to have a fix. I tried wiping davkik cache but it didn't work.

What do you mean by clean install? Should just download the file and flash it?
Have the same issue, thinking of clean install but 300 apps installed is a lot of work. Looks like the Google location provider is not working (if that's the correct name)
Was having the same issue using HERE WeGo maps but was able to fix it. Settings > Apps & Notifications > See all (###) apps. Click the dots in upper right corner, Show system apps. Scroll down to Location Services, force stop then clear cache and storage for app. Reboot.
Worked perfectly for me after that. Seems it was holding onto old storage/cache data that didn't get wiped even after doing a stock recovery cache wipe. Can't guarantee that'll work for everyone, but worked for me.

It worked, thanks! (well it did not work immediately, then I went in preferences and unticked "Improve Location Accuracy", waited and ticked it again and it worked, not sure if it had any kind of impact)
So, actually it did not work, the location would only work if I toggled on/off "Improve Location Accuracy", so I decided to try again, but this time wiped all the system apps that contained "location"in their names, will keep you posted

Can you suggest me a technique for backup and restore for a fastest wipe data?
Hey lads, I know I'm late to the party but I seem to have found something that fixed my Life360 issues.
1. Go to settings => Apps & Notifications and tap "see all apps"
2. Tap the 3 dots in the corner and tap "Show system"
Find "LocationServices" in the list, force stop, clear cache, clear data
4. Go back and find Life360 in the list, open the "advanced" drop-down menu, go to "battery optimization" and select "don't optimize" (this step may not be necessary)
5. Tap "storage and cache", and clear both the cache and storage
6. Reboot
7. Test to see if Life360 can see your location now
I know I'm I bit late and a lot of people wiped their phones to fix this, so I hope this info can help someone in the future!
I think I managed to find a workaround which doesn't involve a factory reset for the same issue on my OnePlus 6T:
Settings -> System -> Reset options -> Reset app preferences (this doesn't affect apps data)
Settings -> Apps & notifications -> See all XXX apps -> (3 dots in the upper right corner) -> Show system -> Clear storage and cache of the following apps:
Google Maps
Google Play services
Google Services Framework
LocationServices
Phone Services
Fused Location
Google Location History
OPMmsLocation
I wiped Dalvik cache in TWRP.
I'm not sure all steps are necessary but resetting apps preferences is the key one I think. It's going to reset the permissions of all apps but it's a good alternative to reinstall everything from scratch. The issue of the GPS fix in Google Maps hasn't come back for me since.

So I had been having the same issues on 6T, then 7. Did this yesterday but haven't yet been able to test it fully although I feel this may have resolved the issue considering the speed at which the GPS / Compass is connecting on Maps. Once I travel today it will just confirm that theory. If it fixes the issue, lots of prayers and wishes your way sir!
PS. Did you ever face the issue again after the fix?

Adding here, I had already tried dumping the cache, storage and Dalvik prior to this which didn't resolve the issue.. Only temporarily. That makes me believe if this is the solution, the most important step being "Reset app preferences" and it does make sense too because Android 9 vs 10, permissions was one of the big changes brought in.
