MM bugs - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey guys, i've had a couple of bugs since i flashed MM, not major bugs...but still annoying
1. sometimes some of the apps lose their white background, they return to look like lollipop by themself, i have to disable and enable it again
2. message icon stay at the notification bar even after you read it, you need to open it again for it to disappear
3. finger print scanner, if it works as it should it works really fast, but sometimes it hangs to 3 seconds then it unlocks the phone ( this issue is present also on lollipop)
these are so far the bugs i encountered....is there any solutions? THANKS

Apps and data disappear frequently

Hey Guys...I have an Xperia E1 and have started getting problems with it.
I had installed a few apps but they frequently disappear at random intervals!
I have no idea what's going on! Sometimes, the icons on home screen,widgets,etc also disappear!
BTW, by apps disappearing, I mean they get deleted completely! I have to re install them again and they disappear again after a while!
The phone has 4.3
So, Do i hard reset it and hope for a change or are these a part of the issues in this phone? I've been waiting for the kitkat update but it doesn't seem to release any soon though a leaked pic suggests its sometime this month.
make a factory reset and see what happens.Its a strange bug.

Just updated to kitkat a couple of days before and then did a repair consequently in lieu of a factory reset.
So far so good will wait for a a day or two to confirm that the bug is gone.
Thanks for the quick reply :good:
Can confirm that there are no issues now hat I've done a repair. Kitkat is smooth as butter except for one bug.
The hangout app never seems to permanently stay as my default SMS app. It keeps switching to the default android message app...
Stranger still is that twhen the switch happens, the notifications tone doesn't play. I have to open the message app to realize that i have a message.
Is it just in my case or is anyone else facing the issue?

hello all,
It has been 2 weeks since I have update my OS to version 5(Lollipop) and in the last days i have experienced problem with apps that are installed in my phone. Once i open an app after 30s it will go away in background without any action from me. Yesterday i got an update for chrome and it made it worse, now i do have problem with keyboard it doesn't show in some cases were i do have to insert password.
Is there any solution to such problems?

Since updating to Lollipop I've also experienced a number of issues, including laggy home screen (it's blank for a second or two before the icons start loading, whereas before it was immediate) and huge number of Chrome crashes. Anyone know if there's anything we can do, or should we expect an update from Google?

Hi,
as i was not able to get any info regarding how to solve the issue, i did Factory Reset.
at the moment problem seems to be solved, i have left not installed now only 3-4 apps which I had before when the problem started.
2 hours after the operation finish i got nearly 10 google apps aupdate, chrome was one of them. it doesn't crash any more, keaybord shows up and works.
Also menu button works perfectly, when i press it all the apps show immediately, its doesn't take like 10-15sec for the apps to show up.
I do recomand to perform factory reset.
regards,

Auto Screen Rotation bug?

Hi
Has anybody a bug like mentioned above?
My FRD-L09 with the latest fw b131 has that bug. After rebooting it works as usual but after some time it stops rotating the Screen.
The Rotation is enabled in the Settings. Tested with many apps like google fotos, the stock foto gallery, even chrome does not auto rotate.
As is said, after a reboot it works again.
Try wiping the Cache Partition in the Recovery Mode menu. If that doesn't work then backup the data on your device and perform a hard factory reset on your device.

Is the issue gone for once as you rebooted?!
Yes, as i stated above
Good
I have the same issue, after some time the rotation is not working anymore. A restart fixes that temporary, but it is getting annoying

It has happened to me twice in 2 days. Not sure if it was camera related, but that's when I noticed it because the pics I took in landscape were rotated 90 degrees in the gallery, and nothing auto-rotates after that. So rebooting fixes it.

A hard factory reset solved the problem for me, at least I did not get this issue again since 3 days.
But I think it has something to do with "smart assistance", this is the only setting that is deactivated since I've made the reset.
So try to turn things off there and maybe I am right, if not do a hard reset (Do not forget to backup your data !!)
Have the same annoying bug on my Honor Note 8, must be something to do with Huawei's power management cause it seems to happen when battery goes below 10%. Restart seems to fix it every time
Hello,
I have the same bug on my Honor 8.
Does someone found a solution ? it's very annoying
Thanks!

You are my personal hero, PreDer!
I only deacticated all options in "smart assisstence" settings. Only Smart Key is activated. I did a partition cache wipe afterwards (no factory reset!) and now everything is working perfectly for last couple of days!

Hi, any update?
Same issue here, but today It reactivated the function by itself as it stopped working with gallery and google photo uploading.
I had anyway some movement options active in smart assistance, which I now have deactivated leaving only the smart cover option.
It is still working perfectly for me with only smart key activated in settings. No issues anymore so far...
Ok thanks, looks like mine too is working again.
Something like the error message of "Google....etc etc...impossible recording" whenever the microphone was used by an app, even taking movies. I then discovered that I had to deactivate the "Ok Google on every screen" option.
By the way, even if I wanted to wait for a massive test of the B380 upgrade, I found that my Honor 8 had downloaded automatically the upgrade, prompting me to reboot to install it, when I left it connected to my home wifi.
I can't find anyway to force it not to download system upgrades by itself, I have a very bad experience from iPad of unnecessary upgrades, is there a way to take control manually of system upgrades?
Actually I haven't seen any battery improvement after the upgrade to B380...
I have the same issue. I can confirm that the reboot fixed the problem. Will see how long befoe this bug comes back.

Rebooting fixes until smart assistance critical option forces the problem to come back. It might be a conflict with some particular app, but deactivating most of the smart options one at a time to see which one is the guilty will solve the issue.
Unfortunatly, reboot fixes the bug for me for only 5 or 6 days :/

As multiple times stated, rebooting is USELESS if you don't deactivate the smart option that fights with some of the apps!

Nougat bugs ?

I updated my honor 8 to B360 (OTA , I didnt do factory reset after update..)
I sometimes have bugs like text in notifications dissapears or gets glitched , also pull down for status bar gesture (on scanner) sometimes doesnt work ?
Is it because I didnt do factory reset or B360 is a bit buggy ... These are minor bugs but can be anoying
I m loving update

I accidentally discovered a "fix" for the notification panel bug. Sometimes it doesn't pull down with the finger eh? I set my smartkey to do nothing when pressed once. When the panel glitch occurs, I just press the smartkey once, and then the swipe down action will start working again.
Well it's essentially recommended to do a factory reset after upgrade.
I'm running it and i have no bugs, just do a factory reset from recovery. It's a major update so bugs like this appears sometimes if you dont do a factory reset.
The nifty tether without root hack is now patched.
In MM you pop the sim card out... Turn on tether... Pop the sim back in and presto tethering.... This worked great but 7.0 blocked it... Anyone found a work around without root
What happened to me on Nougat is when I receive like multiple consecutive WhatsApp messages, and I pull down the notifications (you know, to read the message without sending the read receipt ), I only see the last message, not the ones before, so I'm obliged to open the whole convo...
This and other little things like battery life made me roll back to MM.
is that real that on honor 8, the gyroscope stops working when you update to nougat and you have to roll back the previews update to use vr apps, pokèmon go and so on?
this can be my new device and this is the only thing that stops me becouse i use vr a lot.

I realized, when you leave huawei "Health" app installed, gyroscope is not freezing. Have you tried that?
thx for reply

does your gyroscope on honor 8 works on the last update? can you play pokèmon go with ar, using vr apps ecc.?

Screen not working?

It's sort of laggy, when I want to tap on an app to open it, for example, it takes a few taps or sometimes just doesn't work at all.
The problem doesn't seem to be only on one area of the screen though, the whole screen has the same problem.
Haven't installed any recent updates or anything, in case that could be a cause of the problem. I've tried restarting the phone a few times and also wiping the screen but it hasn't worked.
I've also tried using the optimise and clean up options in the Phone Manager, but they haven't improved anything...
The screen was working like normal just this morning, but then around late afternoon the problem started.
I haven't installed a custom ROM or any other major modifications like that, by the way. The phone is pretty much the same as it was since I bought it. EMUI v8.0 and Android Oreo.
Try a factory reset?
