All issues I found so far - Honor View 10 Questions & Answers

Here are a few issues I found with my device...
- When setting up for the first time "checking for updates" got stuck, ticking back and then next again solved this.
- The screen brightness changes on its own based on what colors it is displaying, as far as it seems. Really annoying.
- Themes wouldn't apply to the phone.
- Above two issues lead me to reset the phone, after which during setup the "Drive" app opened (well, a white bar displaying "Drive" appeared and cant be closed) and never closed, needing me to restart the phone twice until it got stuck on the "checking for updates" screen again.
- Opened the Drive app again.
- Entering recovery mode (Power+VolUp) and doing factory reset including cache wipe solved this issue and it went through setup swiftly.
- Screen still dims randomly or based on amount of white in the screen (update 16-04: I now know this is a known bug of all Huawei and Honor devices since EMUI 5.1).
- Themes still don't work.
Firmware BKL-L09 8.0.0.130(C432)
Any ideas?

[Q] No launcher and random reboots after returning to stock

My OPO was running Multirom with CM11S as main rom and franco as main kernel. After updating to 38R it randomly rebooted about 20 times a day, so i decided to do return to 100% stock (except open bootloader and tamper bit) by following this tutorial. But that made it even worse. Lots of app not responding dialogs popped up at first start and it was really laggy after that, also it still rebooted randomly. Then i reflashed twrp through fastboot and installed Paranoid Android 4.6 Beta 5 + pagapps (19.10) after i did a full wipe. This made it even worse. On the phone setup screen, it couldnt connect to google services. After i finished the device setup screen, the screen stayed black except for the notification bar and onscreen buttons. It's like i dont have a launcher installed. When i open settings through notification center (which works just fine) i cant get out of it. When i close settings in the multitask screen it the screen stays at the multitasking screen with no apps open for about 5 secons then turns black again. I thought it was a bug in paranoid android, so i tried flashing standard cm11 instead: same problem.
I now returned to 33R and it appears to run fine. I never heard of these problems. Has anyone made similar experiences or has a solution?

[Q] Reverted to WEIRD default settings after random reboot

So hey folks,
This is the most strange issue i've experienced with my OPO so far.. Already had many random reboots since i manually flashed 38R, but this night Bacon screwed things up.
I woke up, seeing my OPO in a boot loop, it was super hot aswell and has drained the whole battery. So i connected my charger, did a reboot.
'Android is upgrading. Optimizing apps.' - OK so far, but only a total of 106 apps (With my last runtime change to ART, it showed 188 apps..). W/e.
Now it comes. Phone boots up - language defaulted. Whole settings reverted to stock. Apps are still there, but data is lost. :crying: Media on phone is untouched.
Suddenly i see these super strange buttons - they are NOT in their usual CM11S-Design!! And i did not change any visual stuff. [Attached Screenshot of notification screen]
Top right button to switch to quick actions does not work anymore, no reaction.
Home button completely not working aswell.
Also if i shut down and charge, the charging animation is completely different and colored instead oft OPO's normal one.
Restart menu back one low-level functionality aswell..only restart and shutdown possible [Attached Screen]
It's like my phone reverted itself to half generic android.
Guys, what the Heck happened?!
I mean, i will prolly just hard reset and reflash my phone later this day, but really.. WTH is this?? Any similar experiences so far? Or any Problem solutions?
Thanks for your time and replies..
Wasnt able to post in OPO Forums so far (server error >.>) but will update this thread if i get more info.
Attached screen shows that Rom status seems normal..

Sometimes fails to boot/backlight kind of working - need technical help

Hey there, I have kind of trouble with my PQ.
The PQ sometimes fails to boot correctly.
Booting the PQ results in a short (a few seconds) backlight and then dark. (Important: No picture or text is shown!)
Then there are two errors I've experienced so far:
- after the backlight is dark, I press a button (POWER/VOL_UP-DOWN/CAMERA) and it vibrates. After a few times of pressing and vibrating, it vibrates long and it then seems to be off. Since the backlight is off, I can't know if it's really off.
- after the backlight is dark, I do nothing except sliding out the keyboard (backlight is off). In this error it seems to start "correctly", because after some time the keyboard backlight goes on. That means, that "android" has bootet and is waiting for password entry (because of encrypted phone).
Either way, I have to reboot several times until it boots correctly. (With some luck it takes only 2-3 times.)
Some notes:
- I have to put my sdcard off, because the password entry doesn't appear if it's in. (ext4 filesystem, android seems to want to decrypt that -.-)
- [needs more testing] The phone has had force resets. I think it was my Access Point/Router, causing the WLAN (or qualcomm SoC) to hang. I changed the screen-part (touchscreen+display etc.), seems not to help. (I also disabled that Access Point/router, so I'm still waiting for a force reset.)
- [needs more testing] Sometimes the SIM-card and/or sdcard is not recognized after a reboot/cold boot. I have to reboot to get it back to work. SIM-card recognition may take more than one reboot.
What's in /system?
- CM11 M11 snapshot
- gapps
- XPosed framework (it boots and everything actually works fine)
...if I forgot anything, I will notice that in a later post or edit this and notice in a new post.
I also have a problem with wakeups again (started just a few days ago, after uninstalling two apps...). That's weird, but I can't find the cause. Neither in the XPosed Logs nor in catlog. I need to investigate it further.
I tried to be very exact and I've put anything that might be relevant into this post.
If you have any ideas (no matter how implausibly they are), post them. I am out of any ideas.
It might be helpful to get a log when it boots "incorrect", but I'm sure it's not written anywhere inside the system.
The good thing is, my wakelock problem "disappeared".
The PQ is having deep sleep again.
I have no idea what the wakelock caused...
No force reboot so far.
Another good thing: the force reboots are gone after disabling the AP/router which probably was the cause.
A stable week for me, the phone didn't crash at all.
Of course the other issues stays.
Saturdays (today) the phone is being rebooted by Titanium Backup. Like a wonder, the phone chose to show the password input (encrypted phone; with sdcard inserted).
After entering the password and some boot-time, the mobile part (SIM-card etc.) chose not to work.
A reboot didn't help and I've got into the annoying problem, that I get a blank black screen with backlight but it boots "normally" (without anything displayed).
It took about 20-30 minutes with trial and error on getting it up with the mobile part again.
BUT: I've found today something new, beside the issue this morning.
Bluetooth seems to be enabled always! It's probably caused by Llama (android app).
Needs also further testing, just wanted to write that somewhere down, so I don't forget.
More details: After disabling it, my "PS3 headset" wanted to pair with "all" devices nearby.
I got pairing messages on the PQ even with disabled BT.

(If anyone cares) the force reboots are gone after setting preamble to "long" (PQ malfunctioning if set to "short") in the router.
The other problem persists but are not that bad because it happens rarely that I need to reboot (soft reboot is mostly enough).

Lineage OS : homescreen and menu buttons not working + black screen after reboot

Am I alone ?!
Lineage OS works fine, for a couple of days, then, out of nowhere, the homescreen and menu buttons are not responsive. Then, upon reboot, homescreen turns black, showing nothing except the status bar. The status bar can be swiped down, but everything you click is not responsive.
Wiped Dalvik and cache, issue is still there...
* After a reboot, the device shut down inexplicably. Upon next reboot, issue resolved... WTF is going on?!

I have the exact same problem! Installed LOS on Friday evening and it worked great until Monday afternoon. Screen was on and had full notification bar contents - it looked like the phone was working properly. It could even take calls, receive emails and texts, but the rest of the screen was black and the buttons reset to original settings and didn't even work correctly. The Home button did nothing except a double tap would create a brief white border around the edge of the whole screen. A single press did nothing. The back button worked properly. The switcher button did nothing at all. I think it was doing the Google assistant thing. Holding in the power button was setup to press restart and then give restart options, but it was reset to just restart and confirm.
Restarting never worked to correct it. Wiped cache and Dalvik cache, still no go. Letting it sit for over 30 mins did let it recover once and one other time while driving it went from this black state to fully functional for no reason. It was good for a few minutes and then the buttons stopped working again. The soft buttons did not help either. They behaved badly as well.
It seems to have no pattern. I wiped the phone and flashed the newest LOS on Monday evening and it worked great until tonight. I have no idea what is going on!
Glad to know I am not the only one... Just need a permanent fix!
Nice, a brother !
The back button worked properly.

Same thing here.
Also, I can't tell if receiving calls work, cause I didn't try, but I can confirm the quick settings tiles keep working. The drop down notifications show up, but clicking an individual notification won't bring up the app it is refering to.
So far, the "shutdown, wait a little and reboot" seems like the only thing resolving the issue temporarely. So yeah, before wiping everything and reflash LineageOS, keep calm and wait !
Also, be sure to do a backup your working OPO/LineageOS phone in TWRP mode, so you don't waste time reflashing OS, restoring apps with Titanium Backup and restoring settings manually, like I did three times over the past two weeks...
Too bad we don't see the changelogs with each weekly LineageOS builds releasing or any bug report compilation.
I am conducting some trial and error testing to help isolate the problem. So far it feel like it is related to profiles, specifically with either a trigger or disabling the lock screen. It seems when I add a profile to unlock and disable my lock screen via a wifi "on connect" trigger, that is when things seem to go down hill. generally shortly after is when I get the black screen. I am using the Pixel launcher and have added a Home profile with triggers for wifi and then set my lock screen to disabled. I am currently using the default profile and have not added any others and the phone seems to work well with no issues. It is still too early to say that is the problem, or even exactly what the specific problem is, but I will continue with the default profiles as-is for the next few days or week to see if it remains stable.
Maybe this will help steer someone else to find a fix...
Also this has just happened to me.
All was working fine for a few days since flashed now have same issue as above
Also had Profiles set up for home network for lock screen and sync etc
Phone is Redmi Note Pro 3 though
Stumbled across this while looking for info on this issue
https://www.nico-maas.de/?p=1537
That link is going down the exact same path as I am. Coming to the same conclusions. Thanks for posting it.
With the default profiles in use, I no longer get the black screen and everything is working fine. I will need to keep an eye on the change logs to see if a profiles fix come down the pipe.
For me, it was changing the Lockscreen to none (from pin) that caused the black screen. That link defiantly helped me out. Only thing I did was edit the "profiles.xml" and changed '<screen-lock-mode>' to 0 instead of 2
Yep, also using System profiles to disable lockscreen at home or in car.
Lately, I get no issue at home, but only in car, where my system profile is also setup to activate hotspot when Bluetooth connected to my radio. As soon as hotspot turns off, issue is resolved.
On another side, I mentioned earlier that LineageOS doesn't list its changelogs. I was wrong. You can find them here : https://www.cmxlog.com/14.1/
Fixed!
I experienced the same problem today with my OnePlus 2. Guess time does heal. I waited for a good half an hour and it seemed to fix itself.
When the screen is off, hold down the power button for a second and you should see the power menu. Select 'restart' and let the phone reboot. Simple as that!
Tell me if the problem still persists.
Still having issues.
Notification cannot be seen , I can only hear them.
I haven't configured any profiles.
Home and recents don't work.
Can't open developer options, its says its not available for this user
Anyone have ideas ?
Help me
I got issues with LO, my back, home, recent buttons not working (capacitive) so I'm using on screen button. But after all happen, now I'm having problems with my volume button, it didn't work at all, already restarting my phone many times, also, chance the system profile to default, sadly, it didn't help. Can someone help me with it.
This is not a new issue. I first encountered on CyanogenMod 3 years ago, and I'm disappointed to find that it still hasn't been fixed in
Lineage os. In CyanogenMod disabling "reduce power consumption" in the adaptive display section resolved it. But now with lineage is there doesn't seem to be any specific setting that causes it.
had the same issue - pretty sure it has something to do with "Profiles" set up. For instance, I set up profiles for turning off Lockscreen when Home - using the WiFi detection.
After a restart, the screen went black, but funny enough, the quick menu and the Bar still showed up. I turned on Airplane mode, to switch to the default Profile - which enables the Lockscreen when not in wifi and restarted. That worked.
So I think something with the Lockscreen + Profiles is a bit buggy.
It only occurs after a reboot.
I am using LineAge OS for M7 14.1 - which runs great!

Have the same problem. Tried to update Lineage OS, but it didn't work out. Can anybody help me?

I solved this by clean flashing ( Data wipe + LOS Reflash ).
It's a Known LineageOS source bug ( according to their reddit )
I've started getting this as soon as I tried getting the first time setup to work again. Try this:
adb shell
su
pm enable com.google.android.setupwizard/com.google.android.setupwizard.SetupWizardActivity
2. adb shell settings put secure user_setup_complete 1
and if it doesn't work try adb shell settings put secure user_setup_complete 0
I have a Nexus 10 running the latest 7.1 Lineage image and had the same problem after updating the system and the GApps... here’s how I solved this problem on my tablet... maybe it will help someone else...
1) Use TWRP as your recovery loader
2) Backup your image using TWRP
3) Install the latest GApps - I use the Nano version
4) Wipe the Cache after the install is complete
5) Reboot and wait for the system to settle
6) Reboot into recovery (TWRP)
7) Install the latest Lineage (I use nighties)
8) Wipe the Cache after the install is complete
9) Reboot and wait until everything loads
10) Problem solved.
So... install GApps over the existing install... reboot let it do it's cleanup, then reboot into recovery and install the nightly update... wiping the cache of course... its worked for me three times now.

Great! Setting secure user_setup_complete to 1 seems to work for me.
EDIT: Nevermind, the problem only occurs when I connect to wifi with the screen off, which I didn't test. So no solution yet.
hello there! i have a similar bug on lineageos 15.
everything worked fine until today. no new apps installed or settings changed.
i flashed on 1. December and im really happy with this ROM, but today the hardware touch-keys stopped working correctly. The back button is ok, home button don´t work (except the double-tap function which starts splitscreen) and the menu button wich is set to swich last app with a single tap and show all open apps with a long tap opens the app-menu instead (that function that we know from android 4...).
after rebooting everything start to work again but only for a random period of time.
sry for errors or bad english...
i hope it will be patched cause the ROM is really one of the best i had.

Is my phone on the way out??

Hi All,
I've had the phone about 8 months, UK model.
About 2 months ago, when scrolling in Wikipedia pages on Chrome browser, the display would alternate between normal and blue light (eye comfort). It still does occasionally.
From a few weeks ago, the keyboard sometimes take about 10s to appear.
A few days ago when on voice call from the phone other person can't hear me but I can them while voice call on Whatsapp is fine both ways. Restarting phone seems to solved it for now.
Then yesterday while trying to access settings from either the home screen or app drawer, it fails but you can see its attempting to as you see the settings screen momentarily then a message comes up saying settings failed to start several times and whether to restore by clearing history. Doing that doesn't work. The only way that I can is to touch and hold the settings icon till the search option comes up and then type the particular setting I want.
Before I do anything to fix this, are these symptoms an indication the phone is on the way to a complete breakdown? Would it be a software problem and I suppose the 1st step to fix is factory reset.
Has anyone experience this on their phone?

Unfortunately it's the Oppo software that causes these issues... We hope we can unlock the bootloader soon and flash custom roms to remedy these problems since Oppo are just incompetent.
Chrome colour shift is fixed by typing into your chrome address bar and type: "chrome://flags" then search "Dynamic Color Gamut" and set it to disabled (or it was enabled, I forget since I didn't have the issue myself)
Oppo uses the wrong microphone on third party apps like whatsapp, signal, instagram etc. and we have to wait for an update to fix that. (Issue has been posted here before)
The rest of the issues you described sound like some software instability caused by the Android 11 update. You should save your data and do a factory reset.
If the issues persist after the reset and you didn't install any dodgy apps or modified the software using adb then consider sending the phone in for repair.
OK thanks for replies. So factory reset then...
