Data problems related to S2U2??

This may be nonsense but I'm beginning to get a suspicion about S2U2 potentially being the cause of data connectivity issues for me.
I'm hoping I'm wrong because it's such a great program and I've used it on my last couple of phones.
Basically when I had my Touch HD, I had to reboot it pretty much daily if I wanted my data connection to work, otherwise I would get connectivity problems, but they would always be solved by a reboot.
I never figured out why this was, even though it was mega annoying. In the end I installed a cab to do a scheduled reset each night and it helped quite a bit.
Since I got my HD2 it has behaved perfectly as far as data is concerned and has not had a single connection fail with use every day for emails & browsing, UNTIL I installed S2U2 yesterday late afternoon, then last night it failed to connect. Yes you've guessed it, a reboot solved it.
I know that's hardly conclusive and I'm hoping it's not the case as I love using this program as an unlock screen, but I was wondering if anyone else has had any problems like this?
I was wondering if it was somehow also linked to my carrier too. The reason for this is that my friend also had a Touch HD and used S2U2 and never had this problem but he uses a different phone company. He now also has the HD2, and has installed S2U2 again and is fine, but mine is acting up, so it seems weird that it happens to both my phones but neither of his....
I know I could remove it to see if the problem goes away but programs sometimes leave bits behind when you uninstall.
Cheers
Jim

I get problems either daily or bi-daily where I have to reboot my HD2 to get my data connection to work again, (its connected but doesn't work). Every time its solved by a reboot.
I dont have S2U2 installed. If you find the reason behind the issue let me know as I am about to start doing a search into it.

Hmmm, maybe it's just coincidence then. But why would it have worked perfectly up to that point though, that's the thing that makes me wonder.
Mine also appears to be fine in terms of still displaying the GPRS signal/sign, but trying to retrieve emails or open the browser etc gives an error. It's maddening, whatever causes it!

Same thing again this morning when I told the phone to get my emails - connection failed. Worked fine after a reboot.
I'll see what happens tomorrow. If it does it again then I'm going to uninstall S2U2 and see what happens from then onwards. If it doesn't fix it then I guess it'll be a hard reset on the cards....

Back to original HD2 screen lock from 2SUS
Dear all,
Can tell how to change back to original lock after installed disable the screen lock? I don't like 2SUS needed so long to slide...

Just uninstall it, then press your windows button and hit the lock softkey.
I've removed it myself tonight even though I'm a long term S2U2 fan.
Since installing it a few days ago I've had even worse problems with ghost unlocks than before.
Previously the only issue was accidentally cutting calls off, but with S2U2 in use (standard lock disabled) I had a text from a friend on Friday asking if I was drunk. Somehow, whilst locked in my pocket it unlocked and sent a gibberish sms!
Then today, it also somehow unlocked in my pocket and dialled my mum!
I'm just glad I wasn't playing Call of Duty when it happened or she would have just heard "Sh1t!!! You cheating f***!!! WTF??? You..... FFS!!!!" etc
But seriously - I love S2U2 from previous winmo phones but it's made my HD2 worse so I've uninstalled it tonight sadly.
Isn't there a working fix for these bastard hard buttons yet? I LOVE this phone but the bloody hard keys are ruining it.

Hi Cret,
Thank you so much for your response. I did remove 2SUS and selected the Screen Lock from pressing the Power buttom but it doesn't auto lock each time...
Can you tell what to do such change Registry or I need to restore the original setting?
Thank you, dude.

he wanted it back... not disable...
Go to HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd and change DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 1
This should re-enable the lock...

Thank you very much!
I will try to see it works on my HD2.

Mine was the same ie the lock would not return.
I already had BSB tweaks installed which had a toggle for the lock though, so I just activated that.

Hi, did uninstalling S2U2 help on the connection failures?

Well, I only removed it last night but so far yes. I have not had to reboot the phone this morning and the data is working flawlessly.
Also - and this is a biggie! The battery life on the phone is MILES better without S2U2.
Normally the phone would be down to about 70% by lunchtime without even doing anything and it's still on 96% now - that's a massive improvement!
However, one thing has occurred to me as a possible cause of these issues - I've realised I was using a very old version of the program - v 1.5.
I think I'll try the latest one - 2.22 and have a look through the changelogs to see if there's anything mentioned in there along these lines.

Here's two fixes right away in the next version relating to battery use:
- fixed the v1.50 issue of occasionally high CPU usage during idle.
- save more power than the old version when the device is sleeping.
v1.6
- removed option "Power Save" as the power leak problem is found & fixed.
I can't really be arsed reading through the rest of it but it's obvious there have been power issues addressed by subsequent versions so I'll try the latest and see how it goes.

[Q] Phone only rings for about one second and then stops.

After upgrading to lollipop, I have noticed when recieving a call that sometimes my phone will ring for about 1 second and then stop but continue to vibrate. I am not using any quick cover or anything. This doesnt happen all the time but it does happen quite often. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm completely stock on 5.0 (i have deleted my cache partition and the problem still persists)

Are you using a custom ringtone?

No, just the stock tones. I find it happening sometimes with my SMS messages as well but not all the time.

Update: I have since unlocked my bootloader (wiped) and rooted my phone and the problem still persist. Seems like I'm not alone, I have starred this so hopefully someone can see it. https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=81178#makechanges
Anyone have any suggestions that I could try?

update
I had thought I had fixed the problem by re flashing the stock image of lollipop, the problem went away and my phone started to ring again but shortly its back to only vibrating. I noticed that the little vibrate symbol was popping up in the status bar whenever I received a call, even when I turned off the also vibrate for calls option. I then remembered that when I use the volume butler app and set it to my vibrate profile that symbol would also pop up. I uninstalled volume butler and everything seemed to be working fine. Next I Checked the play store for comments regarding the issue and I noticed two things: There was a recent fix "ringtone changing to silent upon first install" and it said that the app was installed onto my device and not requiring an update even though I had just uninstalled it. So I decided to open it up and it was as if I was starting the app for the first time as none of my previous data was in there for testing purposes I decided to set up the same profiles that I had before and try calling my phone and my phone rang like it should, weird. Perhaps I had two versions and that was the one that I originally uninstalled is that even possible?( I could have sworn I had updated it,as it was under the up to date app list) Regardless, I uninstalled it again and everything is still working as it should. Hoping that this was was the culprit I will continue to test my phone and see.

Nougat OTA update Available 28/3/2017

Its arrived at last , and before April too ..

Can confirm, this is Nougat (7.0) with the security patch of 1st February.
I'll try to find some big differences on the settings..
Oh, and before I forget. Welcome everyone, I just got this phone yesterday. Switching from a Zenfone 2, I hope I'll get a good battery life like almost everyone, and try to participate as most as possible.
EDIT : Which topic we should use? This one or https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/development/p2a42s23217030row-t3580293
Gmail is 100% crashing on my side
EDIT 2 : I received a mail and it didn't crash anymore. Weird

I'm not sure I can recommend anyone upgrading to this yet....my phone has become very laggy and stuttering in different apps....it got better after I cleared the cache and a soft reset, but I guess it will be a few bug-fixes in the near future. I know that maybe a factory reset will be the solution, but I haven't got the time at the moment...

Which ROM variant were people on to get this ota update? I'm on UK three and there is no sign of it. Could be that three have to mess with the rom first, or a staggered roll out.
Build: P2a42_S056_161130_UK
Edit, ok attached screen shows s062. Rest of world.
Is there an easy safe way to swap from three to generic ROW ROM? Don't want to root or lose warranty.

Looks like after the update quickcharging has stopped working

https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70965471&postcount=8 don't know if this void warranty, its factory image firmware but they will see that you phone was on three network and now have ROW firmware, ask at you mobile network provider

Will Row have different modem etc. So potentially different performance or will it be identical minus 3 bloatware. I'm always reluctant to install ROMs not available direct from manufacturer from online because of risk of malware... Is this link a trusted source?

the Update is great, after factory reset...

All looking good here and battery only dropped 4% so far with 1 hour SOT
my phone is the 3 UK version . I flashed over to S048 then upgraded to S062 . Installed TWRP and tried a few custom ROMS but went back to stock ROM to see if i could get Nougat update and I did . Havent looked to see if minor bugs are fixed yet but youtube sync seems to be fine .

The noise cancellation system is not so aggressive in loud environment

Still can't use LED notification from third party application in Nougat...

i expected Launcher, Camera app , themes support UPGRADES
they just upgraded from 6.0.1 to 7.0 , by leaving the apps as it is , its a kind of disappointment , they might have at least included a BETTER launcher,
Hope they upgrade their APPS also to next level, mainly that CAMERA

Many apps are force closing. Any ideas to fix these issues? Thanks!

There is a second launcher hidden called VIBEUI . long press on screen and you get to select wallpaper , widgets , preference or settings from the menu at bottom of screen . press preference and that takes you to homescreen settings . press default launcher and you can choose between VIBEUI or android ( stock launcher ) . Although vibeui seems very limited

I cleared the cache, and restarted the phone, after that I had no problems anymore.

the battery drain is faster than marshmallow in 6h i loose 14% usually i loose 6-7% ...

Has anyone noticed the 'nightmode' now totally sucks? In 6.0.1 it doesn't distort the colour just significantly dims screen. In 7.0 it doesn't dim at all, just changes to a sepia tone!! Why did they change that function! YouTube audio sync appears fixed and the os feels smooth and snappy.
Few annoying quirks like once quick draw is open some items don't switch on/off with single press.

DPI change option are available in Developer options...??

Yeah, I noticed. I downloaded the "Night mode for Lenovo" app from the play store, but it's kind of lame to have to rely on an app for functionality that was baked in 6.0.1.

Yeah feel annoyed as other than this functionality, everything else is either better or simply different. Oh well... EDIT found a great work around. It remembers the brightness level in two states, with auto and without auto. I will just set the brightness to lowest with auto off and then disabling auto, will give me my 'night' mode.

Update QF3 available for sprint 7/5/17

new update available. says "security , new device features " , its the android june security patch and possibly a new feature
If your using the no root hotspot it still works through update!!
It installs weird too after rebooting it restarts then the screen will black out and say "installing applications"
then it will say software is custom until the update notification at the top stops. even though it already popped up a toast that said successfully upgraded yet that still has to fill up (in the notification) then it all goes to normal seems smoother than ever

I am applying it right now, will follow up if I run across any issues.

Thanks. So there is more than just security patch in it at that size.

All I know is the last update(not this one) broke my phone, My system app crashed randomly, vibration would continue to vibrate after calls were answered, very slow response and frequent random resets. Notifications would either not appear or not disappear. One time I lost all my home screen apps. The problems were so severe I decided to upgrade to the S8.
After this update my phone runs like new.... too bad I already decided to buy the new S8.... although my 'excuse' for needing it apparently has been fixed by this update, Now I just want the S8.

Since updating to 5.1.8 - No notifications for Slack, Skype or email!

UPDATE: Factory Reset solved issue with notifications not coming in. But all notifications now play at 100% volume, even with ringer and notification volume set all the way down to 10%.
Phone Status: Bootloader unlocked, unrooted & running completely stock. Notification slider is set to "Ring".
I must say, I'm extremely annoyed with my Oneplus 6 and OOS at the moment. I was out of the office today, enjoying time with the wife on her rare day off. I kept thinking to myself that it was an oddly slow day since I wasn't getting any Slack, Skype for Business, or email notifications. But it is a Friday, so I didn't put much additional thought behind it.
I got back home late this afternoon and logged onto my computer, only to discover that I've been missing time sensitive messages and emails from clients all freaking day. Needless to say, this is quite frustrating and it has even put me in a bit of a bind with one of my clients. It's especially infuriating considering that it's not just 1 app, it's 3 of my most crucial apps. I even have the Slack, Newton Mail and Skype for Business apps all set to "Don't Optimize" within battery settings. So there is no reason these notifications shouldn't be coming through. I've tried rebooting and that hasn't solved the problem. Even as I sit here and watch new emails and Slack messages come in on my computer, I'm getting absolutely no alerts/notifications on my phone.
This is not an issue I've ever experienced with my Pixel XL, Pixel 2 XL or my iPhone X. It's a big enough problem that I've resorted to popping my sim back into my iPhone X and throwing the OnePlus 6 in a drawer, until I can get this problem sorted. I'm so pissed that I'm considering just putting the OP6 on Craigslist and never buying a OnePlus phone again. If I can't trust it to give me notifications when they come in, it's useless to me and, quite frankly, costing me money.
However, I will say that prior to receiving the OOS update to 5.1.8 yesterday, I do not recall missing any app notifications. So I'm thinking the recent update is the culprit. Is anyone else experiencing issues like this? If so, have you found a solution?
Regardless, it's quite disheartening to discover the hard way that this phone/software isn't able to properly handle something as basic as prompt message notifications. Even if I get the problem solved I'm not sure I'll ever fully trust it again and will inevitably resort to constantly opening each app, just to make sure.

Do you have advanced optimization turned on? Did you check Settings>Notifications to be sure they weren't blocked somehow?
You might try clearing data and reinstalling the apps. I have not had any issues with notifications nor heard of this issue from anyone else, thought I don't use Slack or Skype.

Just checked and "Advanced Optimization" is not enabled. I also went into Settings > Notifications and confirmed that those apps are not blocked. I might try a full factory reset to see if that solves it. Super annoying.

I think a full wipe is needed with OEM ROM updates on this phone, at least if you have root/TWRP. Mine goes all ****y with notifications and bluetooth and fingerprint in 3rd party apps when I update.

I think you're right. I've received 3 software updates since getting the phone and each time it throws my finger prints out of whack. Deleting them and re-creating them fixes it though.
I'll go through the factory reset and get everything reinstalled when I get more time in the morning.

I'm having the same issue with telegram..what's app seems to be working fine though

I'm having the same issue with Aquamail and my Facebook app (Power Facebook) and both are set to ignore battery optimizations.

While I'm sorry to hear you guys are experiencing these issues, I must say that it's relieving to discover I'm not the only one. I'm convinced the 5.1.8 update broke something with notifications. I'm hoping a factory reset fixes it. Going to try that here in a bit.

These updates are breaking a lot of things. Bluetooth functionality for me was fine in 5.1.5, when I received the phone - was broken since updated.
Oneplus needs to concentrate on quality control. It is clearly the weakest point of the phone and the company.
Is it surprising that Oneplus paid an influencer to make a video about how their quality control is so great?
I think not.

Yeah, I'm thinking about doing a clean install of Android P DP2 to see if that solves my issues. Not to happy with the "stable" OOS, at the moment.

I had issues with Hangouts mainly and not receiving any notifications so I downloaded the full 5.1.8 zip, factory reset then installed it in twrp and now no issues

Yes, we discussed this in post #2 and #3.
I ended up not having time to mess with my phone this weekend. And things have actually gotten worse. For some reason my ringtone and notifications (when they do come through) play at maximum volume, even if I turn the notification sound slider all the way down to minimum. Reboots don't solve it. Also, my ringtone is randomly changing to this obnoxious beeping noise. I reset it back to the "OnePlus Tone" and it works for 1-2 calls. Then on the 3rd call it's back to the obnoxious new beeping tone, regardless of who is calling.
It's as if the phone is possessed, at this point.

Yeah, I think I need to do a fresh install of the 5.1.8 factory image. I don't see another way to solve this. OnePlus has really caused quite the mess with these updates. It's probably resulting in costly warranty returns/exchanges for them as well. If a fresh install of 5.1.8 doesn't solve it I'll be selling the phone. These days, I don't have time to be dealing with ridiculous issues like the ones this phone has.

Sounds like you have malware. Or you are going crazy
EDIT: if you want a solid but discounted phone, check out Samsung website for discounts on their S9s - they have run $150 and $200 discounts on S9s in the past, and I got one and set it up for a friend. Top notch. But those discounts don't usually last more than a day.

I did a factory reset then installed TWRP and reinstalled the stock 5.1.8 ROM through TWRP a few hours ago. All has been working fine since. We'll see if it stays that way.

Same with Spotify, 5.1.8 seems to be killing the notification so the app gets killed in the background. Notifications seem to be wonky on 5.1.8.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

It's been a few days since I did a factory reset and fresh install on 5.1.8. Notifications seem to be coming in as they should be. However, I'm finding that no matter what audio level I set my notifications and ringer to, notifications always play at full 100% volume. This remains the case even if I turn ringer and notification volume down to like 10%.
I swear this phone is possessed.
