Caller ID and Spam Protection Mod (Whitepages) keeps turning OFF - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

Guys,
Any idea why Caller ID and Spam Protection option automatically gets OFF, Mostly upon Reboot?
It's in Settings/Advanced Settings/ --
I have it enabled on ROM by using the below code on OMC/XSG/cscfeature.xml
Code:
<CscFeature_Common_ConfigSvcProviderForUnknownNumber>whitepages,whitepages,whitepages</CscFeature_Common_ConfigSvcProviderForUnknownNumber>
This used to work quite well on the S7 and Note 7, and no issue with switching off on reboot. Just on the S8 I'm facing this issue.
Any help is much appreciated!

Offhand i don't have a solution.
However, i can say it's not supposed
to be like that.
My phone is not rooted.
Stock Rom.
No issues with Caller Id button and Spam Protection, sticking /staying on.
(After reboot or not,)
I can toggle it, just fine.
See screenshot.
Don't know if Service Provider
has to support this function, to work.?
or did you maybe disable
"some" setting on phone
and have a knock on affect.
or was the relevant setting "broken /corrupted"
by some other 3rd party app.
If none of above, consider a factory reset.?
It will save you a lot of frustration /trouble.

i'm also had this issue in j7 pro

Recurrent Sign-in Error

Hey,
Does anyone keep getting Google sign-in errors on their Razr HD? It started a couple of weeks back, and now a few times every day, this pops up. Mainly when using Chrome, I think.
Any ideas what the cause could be?

can't see your screenshot, so don't know what your actual error is but I have never had any issues with google services.
Are you on stock firmware or custom i.e. CM, Slim etc..?

Totally stock Fido (Canada) ROM. Problem only started a couple of weeks ago.
This might work: http://i.imgur.com/G9UxoYD.png

Hey,
I'll give it a go, but my icons aren't white as you can see in the screenshot. I am not actually losing connection to servers, just keep getting that stupid error message
Cheers,
Su
I'm getting that same exact error whenever I use Chrome. Hope someone can offer a solution to this. Not really a huge problem, but it is very annoying.
Jigz, are you on Chrome Beta by any chance? Perhaps that's the problem?
try to sign in another google account then switch back to the previous account this might help

Very weird problem about the emergency button in lock screen

Hi everyone,
The wired problem is every time I press that button, it won't show my emergency info but reboot my phone signal(signal bar will be empty with a "x" then come back automatically). It worked before, and I think this happened after I rooted my phone with Magisk.

Basic phone info: stock Rom 8.1, stock kernel
Solved: Because of a misconfigured theme file.
I think the phone changes (or resets?) some network configs as part of enhanced emergency services in preparation for you to dial 911. I just checked and mine does it too although I don't know about previous phones or android versions. I'm inclined to think it's more of a feature than is apparent.

Might be, but when it was working, it would show my emergency contact info. Right now nothing happened only got this problem (and just found the left up corner also said no service no sim card), and also no dial panel to dial 911

Disable Lockscreen - Android Nougat

Hi
Anyone know of a way that I can disable the lock screen? I finally got my partner to upgrade her GS7 from MM to Nougat and it's all good except that there is no longer the option for no lockscreen
The phone isn't rooted and I have tried a few apps that disables the lockscreen but I assume the phone won't let it run in background because they only work for a short time
Is there a way to change the lockscreen type to none via ADB?
Thanks,

That was what was on it before the upgrade but not now

Strange, that screenshot of mine is running the latest version of Nougat
Do you have secure startup enabled? Maybe another security setting is preventing you from disabling lockscreen security
Nope nothing like that. Was fine before upgrade and now the option just isn't there. Oh well I'll just have to hope to find out why the apps stop working, probably to do with doze.
Thanks anyway

Have you factory reset since the update to Nougat?
Always recommended after a major upgrade as it generally leaves behind bugs, battery drain, and possibly weird things like this
I'd backup and reset the phone because that option should be there

Hi bigoliver i found that option but nothing to configure just on/off
It is installed but no options to use it
Search the settings several times
Can't find
I don't use the feature myself, so assumed it was a simple on/off setting.
Hopefully someone with more experience is able to help.
This option is for some reason hidden but we have it on our phone. I access it with Bluetooth in my car. When I first time connected my phone and car, I got notification about smart unlock and when I press on that notification I got setting for smart unlock and then choose gps. That's only way I could activate that, and I can tell you that unlocking doesn't working 90% of the time, both Bluetooth and GPS. I had similar problem with s8 plus, but not that much.

Bugged/merged phone numbers (mine and caller's) in call history

The image below should visualize what I'm talking about.

It shows up like this in call history for some reason, and my smartwatch also shows all incoming calls as coming from myself. The caller's number shown before picking it up somehow shows properly.
Has anyone dealt with this issue before? Android 11, crDroid but I see this happen in multiple custom ROMs.
