[UNOFFICIAL][ROM][WIP] Vanir-Exodus 5.0 Lollipop for the Samsung SGH-I547 comanche - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

As a continuation of discussions from the super thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2006388), I present the build thread .
Introducing Vanir-Exodus for the Samsung Rugby Pro (comanche):
What works:
- Phone: All works. We can hang up, recieve and send calls.
- SMS/MMS: Image messaging works perfectly.
- Wifi
- Bluetooth
- NFC
- GPS
What's still broken:
- Camera: this has been a fun one...
- Screen rotation: Just disabled in the kernel currently
Screenshots:

- Kemonine96 - If you don't know by now, you haven't been around the comanche threads
- VanirAOSP team - Putting up with me as a pseudo-maintainer for so long
- Dave Kessler - Bringing up Exodus from the Vanir tree

Installation:
1. YOU MUST BE USING A RECOVERY THAT SUPPORTS SELinux. Currently, this is only the TWRP image I built before. I'll have the latest TWRP soonish.
2. BACKUP AND FACTORY RESET. Vanir checks for incompatible data and errors if it won't work. I won't answer "flash error" posts if you tell me you didn't format.
3. Flash the ROM, then GAPPs.
4. Enjoy the wonderment that is 5.0

Changelog:
1/10/15 - Fixed root access: The team was tinkering with a different root implementation, so gaining root became difficult. Root in this version works fine, but the UI is gone.

I really dislike sounding like a begger, but I could use your giys' help.
I'm currently building with 4GB of RAM, which as anyone who's source built can tell you, is quite low. Between the amount my onboard graphics eat, the file hosting and building, my RAM get's spent pretty quick.
What I'm currently looking at is a Gskill 16GB upgrade, which is about $140 max. This will not only speed up build times but help me run more things at once.
Never expected, always appreciated .
G.Skill Ares 16GB upgrade

Hey there. I thought I should post about the rom here instead of the super thread, no? Anyway, I have given it the two-three day daily test and it ran pretty good. The calls work great, recieve texts, e-mails fine. I took it out today and played soundcloud over bluetooth. It all ran great. But I do have a small list of things that didn't past the test.
These things are mostly small annoyances that I know will be fixed
The screen rotation only got a little annoying once it came to watching youtube videos, but I know that will be fixed
I still have some lost SD card issues and I can't really explain how it happens
The camera is still broken, but I know that will be fixed too
But I have had some big problems with the notifications. Its either that something is broken or I just haven't figured out Lollipop yet.
I can't seem to find an option to have the physical buttons flash as a notification light, I think there was an option for that in CM 10 (or am I wrong?)
I don't know how to change the quick settings panel in lollipop, is there a way to do that?
The notification tones don't work at all. The notification tone is selectable in the settings menu, but every time I get a text or email it doesn't go off
Phone ringtone is also selectable but nothing plays no matter what I set it to. it also doesn't play when I get a call
Heres a breakdown of the notifications on my phone
Call, screen comes on, no ringtone plays
Text, no screen comes on, no notification tone
E-mail, same as text
Also I get no vibrations. The phone vibrates while typing, but no vibration other than that for anything. I put the ring volume to vibrate and still nothing.
The count down clock and alarm tone does work though, and the alarm vibrates
Other than that, the phone works great. I have been using an older phone until this release came out, and boy is it nice to have a fast loading phone again, with such a great screen too. Thanks man for all of your work, I'll donate when I can Later.
Edit: Also I have found that this ROM is not rooted. Is that true? Thanks.

Quick question about the root access on this ROM. I've installed SuperSU and when I open it, it tells me the binaries need to be updated. When I go to update the binaries, it always fails. I'm assuming I missed doing something to enable the root access, so any advice would be appreciated.

On this build they basically removed the root manager interface, so root is handled by appops (or something similar). Why they (the android aftermarket) went this way is beyond me. Any time you go to activate a root app, a prompt should come up. (If it doesn't, open Settings > Developer Options > Root access, and tap "apps and adb" or whatever suits your needs).
If you'd rather use SuperSU (or any others), find a flashable zip and flash it in recovery. This should correct any issues you have with using said app.

Few Q's about my rooted HTC magic

Hello All,
Hope this is in the right place
I have just rooted my magic with the latest cyanogen ROM. It was a lot harder than I thought it would be for a first timer. I think the problem was that there are so many guides out there and trying to find one that works for you was the difficult part (I had to to use relentless guide to revert my phone to Cupcake but then another guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=579328) to flash the ROM)
Now my phone is rooted can it still be 'bricked'?
Why do you do a flash first - what does this do?
Does multi touch only work with the browser?
I partitioned my SD card - are all my apps now installed to there by default? Is there a way to check?
Can I stop the home screen auto rotating (I still want other things on the phone to auto rotate)
Can I disable the work email or set it to only download when I am on WiFi?
When I select a ringtone for my alarm it now displays all the default tones that come with the audio.zip but I only want it to pickup my music like it does when I select the music app. I guess this is to do with my folder structure?
Would you recommend that I try and flash CursorSense as I have heard it is the best but am worried I may struggle - maybe I was just having an off day when I rooted my phone
Sorry for all the questions!
Oh and thanks for this fourm - my phone runs so much better already and I have only tried one ROM - I have only noticed a delay when navigating through the contacts.
Cheers

[APP] Optimus 3D touch LED notifications

Hi,
I've modified Martin Börjesson's app to work on our beloved Optimus 3D.
What does it do, you ask?
It makes the LED under touch buttons blink in interval you select on several events - unread Gmail, SMS or missed calls. Even more, it can listen to notifications generated by any other application.
The app:
can make the LEDs under touch buttons blink after there is a notification (new SMS, mail, instant message, etc.)
can keep the LEDs lit while the screen is on (if you like to keep them shining)
can decrease the timeout after keypress (if you don't like the LEDs shining for so long after keypress)
Requirements:
superuser rights (root)
something to install apk
Installation
1) Download APK from link: O3D LEDs v. 1.4
2) Install with your favourite file manager
After installation it will ask you to grant root rights. It is necessary to ALLOW superuser rights.
Known issues:
Timeout after keypress reacts only on the first keypress. If there are any other keypresses during the default system timeout (~3s), the LEDs won't be lit. (can't be fixed)
LEDs fading doesn't work (and probably never will)
Change of brightness doesn't work (and probably never will)
according to Martin Börjesson "Gmail 2.3.5+ no longer works with the built-in Gmail-check. To get it to work again Gmail has to be disabled in Notifications and then added as a monitored activity (Notifications -> Monitored activites -> Gmail)."
TODO:
Fading
More complex scenarios for LEDs and vibrations
Changelog:
v1.4
added: support for ICS (SU760 port by xbsall
important: you have to check Settings - Display - Front key light - Turn on front key light.
(there is no need to upgrade from 1.3 if you don't have ICS on P920 or SU760. It won't allow the upgrade anyway, because I screwed up)
v1.3
added: simple widget
v1.2.4
added: you can now set the leds' "after keypress" timeout
v1.2.3
better way to check for superuser (thanks go again to Martin Börjesson)
v1.2.2
fixed: FC on start
v1.2.1
fixed: LEDs sometimes stayed on when the screen turned off
v1.2
added: LEDs can stay on while the screen is on
v1.2beta
fix: battery issue
removed: accelerometer something
removed: fading options
v1.1
added O3D support
Big thanks to Martin Börjesson for making his app open-source.
Thanks, I'll try
thx alot...just what i was looking 4!!
sent from the 3rd dimension with my optimus
Installed, can't for the life of me get it working
the "test" works fine, it has super user privileges etc, just no idea what needs activating and what doesn't, by default nothing works
Well, it should work right after installation for Missed Calls, SMS and GMail... Maybe some task manager kills the app? Maybe you don't have active notifications, or you are using different app for messages - it can be added to notifications ("notifications" - "select monitored activities" and find the app you are using).
Also keep in mind that there is default waiting time 4 seconds before the notifications start (it can be changed in settings).

Hi mate, I use Handcent and Gmail (turned off missed calls)
it doesn't work with them (tried with emails)
However, Google+ works fine even though I never enabled that!?
I don't use task killers
Ok, according to Martin Börjesson "Gmail 2.3.5+ no longer works with the built-in Gmail-check. To get it to work again Gmail has to be disabled in Notifications and then added as a monitored activity (Notifications -> Monitored activites -> Gmail)."
If you've activated the Lights notification, then the LED notification will work for every app that wants to notify by LED (maybe your Google+).

yeah, just got my first text of the day and it worked, cheers
If LG - hopefully with a forthcoming update - makes writable the LED's file system instead of keeping it as read only, could we use your build without root/superuser rights, isn't it?
Yes, it should work without root then.
Ok, thanks for the confirmation: I try to push a bit the manufacturer regarding the little firmware mod! If anybody else wanna support the same request, maybe...
It doesn´t work for me.Its says"The app detected that its has no read or write access to a required file.This can be fixed but this action requires the device to be rooted(im already root).This has to be done before the app can be used properly.
I have reintaled and rebooted the phone and nothing
PD:I have instaled in my phone lot of apps that need root,rom manager,titanium backup,chainfire 3D...

Well, you have to confirm that message and after that you will be asked by superuser app to allow root access. and that's all.
If it doesn't work, check if you have file "/sys/devices/platform/keypad_led/leds/keyboard-backlight/brightness"

This is the problem, superuser app ask nothing.
I checked the file /sys/devices/platform/keypad_led/leds/keyboard-backlight/brightness and is ok.
the app looks for the file I've mentioned, if it exists, it checks wheter it is read-only, then it tries the chmod command to make it writeable and that's when it needs root permission. There is nothing more I can do about it, the permissions must be given by superuser app.
You can try to set chmod 766 on the brightness file manually.
Working But!!
I installed and it worked straight off, one issue though that I had is that it is using far too much battery, so I had to uninstall, otherwise it worked flawlessly.
glad my idea was enough to put a dev to work

[10-19] [ROM] [WIP] Isaacj87's MIUI+CWM for triumph =D

we all owe a hell of a thanks to Isaacj87 for getting miui over to the triumph.
i take no credit for [email protected]#$%^&*() i am just posting this link so people who dont go to android forums can find this!
to flash this you will also need issacj87's CWM custom made for the triumph.
here you go guys and again be sure to thank isaacj87 for all his hard work!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for any damages (bricking/phone ruining) occurred while flashing or using this ROM. By using this ROM, you understand that that I am not liable for any or all consequences of using this ROM. If you don't know what you're doing, DON'T TRY IT. Use at your own risk!
SPECIAL NOTE: These builds are not being built from source (only partially). This port is technically a port of a port of a port (DHD-CN --> DHD-EN --> MI410 --> Triumph). I can only account for the changes I made personally. There are no records on what was changed up to this point from elsewhere. This is something to consider.
Also, since I don't have the source for this ROM, it's being worked on with a take-it-or-leave-it attitude. If I can manage to fix something, it'll get fix. Since it was originally in Chinese, some of the language translations will be strange. I'm using code from CM7, building said code, and cramming it into MIUI. Since MIUI and CM7 share a lot of the same code, this has been working fine so far. But remember: I can't stress how much I don't want complaints and bug reports. I'm doing this for my own amusement and I'm just sharing what I've got.
I'd like to put up the the changes I've made to this ROM, but, basically, it would be useless. I used whatever tools I could find to decompile the various aspects and apply changes, but I wasn't able to save any of the decompiled stuff in any readable form. However, the changes to kernel I made will always be available. You can view those changes on my Github: http://github.com/ikarosdev
Overall, everything has been working quite well and I hope your happy with the results.
What works:
BOLD=NEW
RIL/3G/1xRTT
Audio/Call recording
WIFI
USB Tethering
Bluetooh
Keymapping
2D/3D/EGL/GPU
LED (dual-mode)
Capacitive button lights
Screen rotate/orientation
Touchscreen with multitouch/screen rotate capable
USB mounting
CRT screen off animation
Proximity sensor
Camera (front and rear) [see next section below]
GPS
HD 720P video recording/FFC video recording
MMS [see next section below]
Torch
Google Talk with video/voice chat
Wired headse
What partially works:
Camera (FFC output during video calling and snapshots is not mirrored.)
MMS (I can send, but not receive. Always comes back complaining about something.)
What doesn't work:
Ambient light sensors
WIFI hotspot (DON'T ASK, WON'T FIX)
720p video recording (Doesn't work in MIUI camera app. I've heard reports this works with a 3rd-party app)
HDMI out/mirroring (I don't have any way of testing this. Maybe it does work.
Known issues:
These builds, as mentioned, are not being built from source. As such, measures were taken to get everything working. Don't be surprised if you get a FC or eleven. Furthermore, these are development builds (a.k.a not stable). Some of you may be able to live with it, some won't.
Being similar to CM7 (at the core), the proximity sensor goes wonky during phone calls.
Recovery:
I also have my own CWM port for the Triumph. Since I got everything working, it's been running like a champ. I've themed it a bit to make it unique, but it's still Clockwork recovery at its core. I've currently put this up (minus the custom colors and graphics) for review to be included in ROM Manager. You can watch its progress here: http://github.com/koush/ROMManagerManifest/issues/311
The keymapping in my recovery is:
- Volume up/down to navigate
- Menu to select
- Back to go backwards
Downloads:
Recovery:
NOTE: tjstyle's recovery (4.0.0.9) will not work. You have to use a recovery for the Triumph.
NOTE: You must use a recovery with EXT4 capabilities. The one below should be just fine. If you're already using a recovery with such features, you don't have to change it.
ROM
NEWhttp://www.mediafire.com/?0m5rm6l5sl6samc

CWM
NEWhttp://www.mediafire.com/?y10vq724nr7al8p
OLDhttp://www.mediafire.com/?0h8uph17x1w30e8
**Instructions on how to install isaacj87's CWM**
1. download the recover img listed above
2. unzip the file using winrar or any other unzipping program
3.turn your triumph all the way off
4. unplug the usb cable for your triumph
5. hold the volume down+power button on your MT
6. the screen should come up as black with small white text in the top right hand corner. the text will keep repeating but dont worry this is normal.
7. plug the usb cable into your MT and computer and let the drivers install.
8. once they are finished installing, go to computer and you should see a new device called mobile. click on it then click on the image folder.
9. there you will see the recovery.img file. take this and make a back up of it on your desktop or in a safe place where you wont lose it.
10. next drag issacj87's recovery.img to the folder and copy and replace the current recovery.img. once this is finished you can eject your MT and the only way to get it out of bootloader mode is to do a battery pull.
11. after the phone is off hold both volume keys and also the power button and it will boot into isaacj87's cwm 4.0.1.5 recovery =)
12. from there do a full wipe of the system and D cache and user data and then you can flash MIUI!!!!!
Enjoy!!!!!!!
THANK YOU AGAIN ISACCJ87!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MMS is my least favorite smartphone feature by far... try GO SMS (it comes with built-in uploading) or just use URLy to put files online. Since we all know how lousy Virgin Mobile's MMS system is already.
I kind of use it for work. Need to be able to send and receive. Its easiest to send to a phone number for some customers

Sent from my Motorola Triumph using xda premium
i use juice defender. it cuts off data when the screen is off and restarts it when you turn the screen back on. thus resetting your 3g every time. not an actual "fix" but it makes the rom that much more usable
MMS has been fixed. I've been sending and receiving all day today. Clean pics, I might add.
I've also went ahead and bumped us up to 1.10.14. It will be released soon.
I've been investigating some fixes for the data drop issue. I think I may have found something that might work. I'm going to try it first in CM7 and if it works, it should be applicable to MIUI as well.
Happy MIUI-ing guys.
P.S. I would make an "official" thread here, but it seems most Triumph users frequent Android Forums. I'll make an effort to keep an eye out here as well.

I found something that might fix this problem (i.e. a real solution). Tickerguy also worked on a solution that seems to be working. He's going to test it for a couple days to confirm, but so far it looks good.
Once he shares his fix, I'll try and "code" (smali) it into MIUI.
i cant wait for this next update.

[Bug list][i9505][4.3] CyanogenMod 10.2 official

I decided to create this thread so that people don't need to hunt through the large discussion threads.
Note that this is *not* a thread for discussing the ROM.
I will update these posts based on *confirmed* bugs. By that, I mean two or more people confirming the bug on pure cm 10.2 - not using other kernels.
Also the ROM must have had a clean install (wipe data, cache, system) and not flashed over a previous install.
It's also worth reading what CyanogenMod have to say about the 10.2 nightlies (http://www.cyanogenmod.org/blog/this-week-in-cm-aug-16-2013) as it gives you an idea of what to expect from the ROM at this stage.
ROM is available here: http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=jfltexx
The official ROM thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42387383
The discussion thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41851449
Only flash the ROM with the latest CWM (http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager), TWRP 2.6.0 (http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/jfltexx), or the latest PhilZ (http://d-h.st/users/philz_touch/?fld_id=16685#files)
DO NOT use earlier versions of PhilZ (prior to 5.13.9) or you will have boot (no animation, hang on updating apps) and installation (no signal, no baseband) problems.
DO NOT use TWRP 2.6.1 as it fails to flash the ROM.
First time cm 10.2 users please see post #4 for some useful tips.

Bug list
Bluetooth
(Does not affect all users and may be related to BT 4.0 devices)
No audio on BT; doesn't connect/disconnect properly.
Compass
The compass doesn't work "out of the box".
Solution:
- when first using an app requiring the compass (Google maps, GPS status, etc), the compass is "frozen" until it is calibrated (rotate the phone 2-3 times about each of its three axes).
- the compass will then move, but very erraticly, often going around in circles
- if you exit the app and then reopen it, the compass will work properly from then on.
DSP
DSP distorts sounds. This affects music play back.
Workaround: freeze DSP using TB
Mobile network modes
(Not everyone has this problem as it is language related)
- It is set to: GSM/WCDMA/LTE, but when opening the drop-down menu it selects the option LTE (which is two above GSM/WCDMA/LTE).
- Selecting some options may cause an FC.
Network operator name
Name shows correctly on the notification shade, but only numbers are shown in Settings/Wireless&Networks/Mobile networks/Network operators
Apps
Camera
- HDR doesn't produce a proper HDR image. It only takes one low exposure image.
- Some people have been getting occasional green lines on photos taken using the front-facing camera.
- In Scene or HDR mode, touching on the screen does not refocus.
- (0908 ) Video recording at 1080p will cause the phone to reboot.
- (0908 ) Exposure is locked at the value of the first photo taken (if taken without flash). Subsequent photos use the same exposure as the first photo.
Workaround: change the flash mode to automatic then change it to none. Then it will work properly. But this needs to be done each time the camera app is started.
File Manager
(1113: reintroduced ) In root access mode the bookmark for the internal SD card points to /storage/emulated/0 which doesn't exist.
Workaround: bookmark /data/media/0 or /storage/sdcard0
Terminal
- su doesn't inherit PATH if it was previously modified by export.
- Arrow keys don't work properly in su mode.
Fixed
List of fixed bugs (version fixed)
Headphone mic doesn't work (20130818 )
Phone picks up sound from the phone microphones.
Workaround: keep the phone close to you.
Home key long press (20130818 )
Changing the option in Settings/Buttons/Home Button:Long press doesn't actually change the long press behaviour of the Home button.
Key backlight (20130827)
There is no longer an option to disable the backlight on the menu and back keys.
Workaround: flash this http://db.tt/evvZLhkx. Note that if you wiped /data then you must flash this file *after* the ROM has booted for the first time.
Lock screen (20130924)
If the icons of the shortcuts are changed, they must all be changed at the same time otherwise the ones that were previously changed revert to the original app icon.
Quick Settings panel
- (0924 or earlier) Orientation tile: it doesn't lock/unlock screen rotation immediately. It needs a screen change (such as bringing up the recent app list) to take effect. (20131001)
Random reboots
(0909) Some users get random reboots.
Root cause: bug in Chrome beta. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45642265
SELinux status (20130818 )
Repeated taping on the SELinux status in Settings/About phone will freeze the phone and cause it to reboot after some time.
Sound recording (20131011)
Volume is very low in Sound Recorder and video recordings.
Partial workaround: use Smart Voice Recorder https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.andrwq.recorder and disable automatic gain control.
Workaround: use ktoonsez kernel and faux sound control app to increase the microphone gain.

Does not work properly after a clean install.
Workaround: change Root access to Apps and ADB in Settings/Developer options
Apps
Camera
- No option to save to external SD card. This may be by design rather than a bug. (20130821)
Workaround: use Gallery2.apk from cm 10.1
- (1017) Note: cm are working in the camera. The camera will sometimes hang, often after using video. Force closing it results in a "Can't connect to camera" message. A reboot is required to reactivate the camera. (20131021)
File Manager (20130918 )
In root access mode the bookmark for the internal SD card points to /storage/emulated/0 which doesn't exist.
Workaround: bookmark /data/media/0
Trebuchet
- Icons in folders disappear after a while. (20130817)
Workaround: use a different launcher
- When icon labels are hidden, the label on an app will reappear if it is updated. (20131001)
Terminal
- (0918 ) In su mode, /sdcard points to /storage/emulated/legacy (/data/media/legacy), which is empty, instead of /storage/emulated/0 (/data/media/0). (20131011)
First time users
A few things you need to know:
Developer options
Only shows up in Settings when you tap 7 times on the Build number in Settings/About phone.
Reboot options on Power menu
Check Advanced reboot in Settings/Developer options.
ADB
For your PC to get ADB access, enable USB debugging in Settings/Developer options.
Watch your phone when you first run ADB and allow the PC access to your phone.
Internal SD card
With Android 4.2.2 (or was it earlier?) the internal SD card is now mounted at /data/media/0 in order to support multiple user profiles. Your files may still be in /data/media/legacy.
Sorry for repeating, but this information could be useful (cwm 6.0.3.6, cm10.2 nightly 14/08, previous firmware - cm10.1 nightly 13/08).

Everything is ok after installing via last cwm and some magic
I had two minor bugs:
1. unable to update the software - fixed by readding the google account and cleaning dalvik cache.
2. crashes of keep, play music, google disc and youtube- fixed by reinstalling these programs.

awesome
Glad to see this being worked on.
I had issues with the focal camera and would love some a2sd support. I had to go back to stock aosp but certainly wiling to do any testing if needed.
Very convenient.. Thanks!

Just did a clean flash. Noticed directly that LTE didn't work. It says LTE in status menu. But no LTE in data connection. Not even HSDPA. Calls and Sms works.
Titanium backup doesn't work on 10.2 for me.

I'm not a developer; I'm simply providing a list of bugs to help our community of cm 10.2 users.

OR
Install SuperSU from Play Store and install binaries
TB will work fine then...

Went to the mall and saw LTE appears which I didn't expect to work since I've been on AOSP for a while without it. Quickly did a speed test and got 8 Mbps down and 3.5 up and this is with Sprint.

There is a bug in Trebuchet launcher. After reboot some of icons in folders simply disappear
two bugs I noticed:
Alternate action of 'long press Home button' doesn't stick (after closing settings It's back to app-switching when I long press, where I selected Search-app)
Mobile network modes set to: GSM/WCDMA/LTE, when opening the drop-down menu it selects the option LTE (which is two above GSM/WCDMA/LTE)

For me, the network modes work properly. And I don't have an LTE option on its own.

Honor 6x BLN-24-cannot press "allow" for any app.

When an app asks for permissions, Allow and Deny options show up (regardless if for storage, or camera, etc.) but the allow button does not work. Deny works fine. So far i have unlocked the bootloader via Huawei website method (i guess you call that official) and flashed twrp. I have not rooted the phone yet (getting to that, but one problem at a time) and this is the first one.
I also saw someone else ask, but with now answer. Is there a way to get rid of the splash scren about the phone being unlocked and not trustable, press power button again to boot?
Do you have an special theme activated? Use the standard theme and try again
My 1st question to you is... when the window prompts, do you flag the option "don't ask to me again" or not? Because if yes, the only option avalaible becomes the "deny" one. This mechanism confused me too some time ago, when i wasn't understanding why it was blacked out; Android takes your flag as an "what a bore, just shut up and go **** ya' self leavin' me alone" answer, so it automatically deactivate the possibility to let it pass even one more time. If you didn't checked the flag, i have another question for you. Did you maybe recently made an update OTA, or with an update package found online? If the 2nd answer is what u've done, do a check for being sure that you have updated the phone with the correct package model. (BLN-21, BLN-22, ecc.) If neither this is your case, begin to tell us something more 'bout your phone configuration and start to think to backup your data and do a factory reset for eliminate this weird issue.
For the question of yours about the Nag screen (the splash one, for being clear) at the moment there is nothing that we can do to avoid it to pop out; just skip it pressing immediately the power button, is the best advice that i can do so far
I'll attempt to answer all these at once since I just got home from work. I wouldn't believe rooting the phone would cause this issue, but the problem happened before i unlocked the bootloader so I think that rules that out. I do not use a special theme, but I do use squarehome launcher for my phone, not the standard android launcher. Problem there is, the problem occurs with either launcher being active. And theme wise, I have a 3-d live aquarium for a background (which if turned off and just a static wallpaper, the same behavior occurs). As far as the phone update goes, it was an OTA update from 6 to 7, so still using stock, nothing sideloaded or flashed (yet). My data is all backed up via My backup pro, and doing a full backup with TWRP onto OTG is not a problem. I prefer not throwing in the towel, since setting up squarehome perfectly is a pain in the ass, but if it has to happen, it is better than manually setting permissions for every app that needs them. Not sure what a screenshot would do, think of any app asking for permission to use phone storage, both the allow button and the deny button visible (in white, nothing grey) and allow doesn't respond where deny responds fine. and then i have to go in manually and grant the permission after the fact. I suppose I could just root my phone and give that a whirl, seems some bloatware needs to be removed anyway, and i have the SU sitting on my hard drive already. Thanx for the responses, and let me know what you may have come up with before I just factory reset it which as mentioned, I am dreading doing.

Hi, so you have unlocked bootloader but not rooted? This is maybe problem, you need to have rooted phone if you have unlocked bootloader for fully using phone. Can you post some screeshots?

Well, I didn't think that would be the answer, but you, sir were right. I rooted my phone and it seemed to have fixed the problem. I don't believe I made any other change whatsoever. Thank you very much. Glad I tried it anyway as you suggested even though I didn't think it would be the answer. I am not above saying thank you, and I was wrong. Kudos. Maybe this will help someone else. Good thing is, I planned on rooting it anyway, and you just kicked me in the pants to do it.
Rooted but allow button is still not activated
Hello guys,
I wanted to activate app twin so I rooted my phone BLN-L21 android 7.0
Allow button still deactivated.
Also the boot screen that asks to press power button still exist.
I noticed that if I activate whatsapp twin it won't work simultaneously .
I.e : when you open whatsapp you get all missed calles & messeges.
Also I was able to download themes through themes app ,but now it just views the local themes.
Note: superSu is installed.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you
Well, I think this is not related to OP (or at least partially), but when unlocking bootloader after setting up SD card as the default storage can break some things, like default themes.
Try to restore your firmware, and then unlock the bootloader.
If successful, you can now set up SD card as default storage.
