Sharing window is loading forever - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I have noticed that if I click on a share button somewhere (doesn't matter where, everywhere the same problem) I have to wait 10 - 15 seconds until the window pops up to choose an application where I want to share it.
You guys have the same problem?
I have root and xposed but no modules they interact with the share system. Any ideas how to fix that, if it's even possible?
The Problem isn't new for me. I'm not sure if it was working once.
Thank you

I had this issue where any app I tried to share from force closed. I realized it had to do with the stock "Files" app which I had removed or frozen. I enabled the app again (actually replaced with the nougat beta file manager) and "share" worked like normal.
Not a solution to your problem, but could be a clue.
Try playing around with the "files" app.
Clear data, and so on..

OK thx will try it

Do you have Flat Style Colored Bars? I was having the same issue and after I removed it it went from around 15 seconds to around 5. Still annoying, but manageable. I also downloaded Quickpic instead of the stock gallery which has it's own share feature to get around that problem/

I have xStana. The gallery workaround works, but when I make a photo and want to share it, it's super annoying.
Edit: removing xstana didn't help

I have xstana as well I don't think it's that. Try removing other modules or disabling xposed entirely.

Tested deactivating the modules.
I have the problem if: App Settings, Google Assistant enabler or Xstana are active.
Well I guess I have to live with the bug then, the modules are too important for me. Thanks for your help.

You can use the theme engine to make a theme that uses whatever xstana bars you have. For Google Assistant we're getting the update in a month or so. Don't know what to do about App Settings. Tasker maybe?

[Q] UCCW is getting buggy for my all of a sudden...

I'm trying to incorporate images into some widgets, but the app, as of yesterday, keeps bogging down as soon as I try to load one. I'll click the image I want then it goes back to UCCW and nothing happens. The generic image icon still remains, I can click to switch between objects, but it won't actually switch. What could be causing this? I downloaded a bunch of fonts a few nights ago, but the app was working fine up until yesterday. The app works just fine so long as I don't attempt to import an image file. If anyone has an idea, please let me know. I'm working on a huge project.

[Q] HELP me get rid of Google Now triangle from lockscreen

Guys,
Can somebody tell me how can I remove that little triangle showing in the bottom center of the lockscreen that is used to launch google search ??
It actually is interfering with my Home button on the Navbar as it doesnt disappear after unlocking and in turn shows up behind the Navbar Home button. I have attached the screenshot for your reference (Look at what I have encircled in red in the bottom center of the screen).
I am using Omnirom on my N5
Let's start with "what mod/app did you install on top of your ROM that gave you that little triangle"? The stock ROM doesn't seem to have that.
Ummmm... I dont think i installed any such mod which could have enabled this.. Can you suggest me something???
And the stock omni has one.. I just checked it out.. check the 2nd pic in the attachment in the link that you posted.. Can you see that triangle?

My guess would be it's a bug in the ROM. That arrow is only supposed to be visible on the lockscreen when you don't have a navigation bar. What happens when you tap on the triangle? Does it function as the home button or not? Is there anything in the Omnirom settings to configure the nav bar?
I would say either take it to the Omnirom thread and see if anyone else is having the issue or try flashing another ROM.
okies.. thanks..

I don't think it has anything to do with Omnirom as I'm having the same problem and don't have Omnirom. I'm just running Xposed and Gravity Box and this stupid little arrow has been driving me nuts for about six weeks now.
I though it might have to do with NotificationMod Xposed module so I uninstalled it but it still appears.

Me neither. And from all of my Google searching it seems that you, me and one other person who posted on XDA are the only people experiencing this haha.
I threw a post onto r/Nexus5 hoping someone there might be able to lend some insight and linked this post along with the other post.
Sorry...it wouldn't let me link the Reddit post since I'm a newbie here.

Are you running Xposed or GB as well?
If you are, we can try and see which modules we have in common.
Also, I just remembered I messed up flashing something last week and had to factory reset and the arrow is still appearing so it's definitely a bug in some app.

Looks like we overlap with:
ActivityForceNewTask
Android L Navigation Bar
SoftKeysFadeMod
Xposed GEL Settings
I've disabled SoftKeysFadeMod and am going to look through GEL Settings to see if there's an option to disable GN on lock screen.
I'll probably put my money that SoftKeysFade is the issue.

You have multiple mods that have to do with the navbar. Any one of those could be causing the problem. Try disabling them and reboot.

Apps reloading themselves upon opening??

Youtube, and seemingly a bunch of other apps lately have been refreshing themselves upon reopening them ...
See the video for an example..
What's causing this? Really annoying..

Anybody else have this problem??

Oh yea..
Stock 4.4.4 (build prop edited to say 4.4.2 for YouTube)
Franco test 64 (problem was also on r63).. Might not be kernel related

Gravitybox, greenify, youtube adaway, wake lock terminator, gel settings

well, the very first thing im gonna ask you to do is completely remove all xposed, and everything having to do with it. xposed can come with too many undocumented issues, so its always best to remove anything xposed before trying to resolve issues. it could even be xposed causing it.

ok, reflash your rom, dirty(dont wipe anything), without franco kernel. why reflash the rom? because franco kernel leaves stuff behind. and dirty so thst you dont lose any data.
I'm pretty sure this is standard behavior for YouTube, to refresh the videos. It happens on all my devices. Do you have an example of this happening on an app other than YouTube?

Now with Lollipop this is much worse. Even on light multitasking my apps keeps reloading when swithcing to them... Why google why..
Frustrating.
Edit: the irony: just had the google play music app closed + stock launcher closed (and other apps: massive kill). When i got back to chrome this one was killed too.
Great.

I really don't seem to have this issue on lollipop. I did on kk.
Sometimes if i launch an app from LMT pie, it starts it as a new activity, where as from recents it goes to the last known state. I'm not having anything killed off though

Well, it was so bad that actually all the time I switched to an app (including launcher/homescreen) it just reloaded. And in Settings > Apps > Running many apps were in a Restarting state.
It seems that Lollipop has some memory leaks, I need to reboot the phone after couple of hours.
This is not an isolated issue, see:

Changing the double tap home button app?

Anyone know how to change apps instead of camera launching? Rooted and ready to go.
On stock settings you can just disable the camera launch. Maybe an xposed module will do the job once xposed works with the S6.

aha ok I see, but still, Google camera is still worse than the Samsung camera app
last night @Goldie released 'Alliance Framework' which along with hundreds of others mods can change the double tap home button app .. just tried it myself!
I'm using the Edge, so not quite sure if it's compatible or not with you (should be) backup first !

You are not alone. I started having the same problem (occasionally) since the latest system update (December 5, 2019). Plus apps no longer auto-update (never), even when I am on Wi-Fi. None of that was an issue prior to mentioned update.
For weather not showing I suspect app gets "power-optimized".
For app auto-update not working - there are multiple reports for that over the past year for Pixel and other phones with no clear solution. I tried clearing Storage and Cache for Google Play Services but it didn't help.

just checking that you have given google app location permission and location is on.
another thing is i'm also using nova launcher in a very minimal way but that might have something to do with it.
i discovered by searching that it's a pretty common issue. but if it's something you want and you can have it by using a different launcher try out a different launcher for a week, maybe. good luck in finding a solution.

I found the solution. I'm on basic phone launcher ( no launcher installed or rooting done).
Just enable location on and go to your Google account and turn location history on.
Then restart with location turned on.
It's there now.
Found sort of a solution
It isn't the best solution, but it works (at least for me it does). I found that if I put another at a glace widget on another screen (so there are 2 now, one on my home screen, one on another), it works and shows weather on both. If I remove it, the weather goes away again.. Hoping this is some sort of clue to get this fixed permanently.
