WiFi location scanning constantly prompt - Huawei P20 Questions & Answers

I have big and annoying problem. Almost every time a touch my phone and screen is on, a prompt for turning wifi location scanning appear with options for cancel or ok. Whatever I do it appears again. If i turn wifi scanning on, it turn off after a minute. If i turn it off, then a message to turn it on appears. Ive tried to clear Google play services cache, uninstall Google play services update. It was ok for a few hours then again the prompt appear. It is the same message appear on my Huawei mediapad m5, but sometimes. Maybe because i dont go anywhere with the tablet. Maybe its something with wifi+ option, but Im using and like wifi+. I don't want to the full reset or clear cache settings, since i believe it's something go wrong with google account. Any ideas? It will be very sad if i do full reset and the problem still exists...

turn off wifi + and wifi scanning and also uninstall the google play services updates

Hello. I did that many times. On all of my devices. I don't want to turn off wifi+ because i use it a lot.
First the problem appear when my phone or tablet found some of the networks I've add before, even if i set to forget the network years ago. It's seems that Google remember all of my network I've add to the account. So. I deleted Google now cache, disabled it and enabled. Same for google service, uninstalled updates and update it again. And ive set the Google account to delete all of my history.
Second. There's a update from Huawei about this. It's not available and installed yet but i dont know did I fix the problem, or Huawei update something secretly and now problem disappear. Wifi+ works ok.

Google Sync Problems

Hey guys, I have been experiencing a problem since yesterday: Although syncing is activated (I tripple checked!) my google account does not sync anymore as long as I use mobile data (other apps like google chrome are able to use mobile data, however, so I am able to surf the internet). This also means that I don't get any emails in push from my gmail account. As soon as I switch to WI-FI, syncing works flawlessly, emails are pushed without any delay. Manual syncing works (pulling down in the gmail app or via the options in the google account settings on the phone).
Another weird thing is the signal status icon. When using WI-FI it is white, as soon as I switch to mobile data, it turns orange (I'm using nova launcher).
So I decided to completly wipe the phone and then reinstalled CM 11s 33R which I downloaded directly from the CM-page. I reinstalled all the apps afresh which means I don't think I carried any wrong settings from my last ROM over to the newly installed one.
Anybody got an idea what the reason could be that there is no syncing anymore and how I can resolve this?
Hi,
im facing the same problem since yesterday morning. I've recognized the exact same issues with the same situation.
As long as im in WLAN all is good. As soon as i am on mobile-data network push is not working anymore. I has been working before fine, but till yesterday it stopped. I didnt change anything in the configuration.
Very strange. I would be very happy if anybody has a glue on how to fix that.
I've also made twice a reset (once per TWRP, and another reset with android reset function) but both didnt help to get rid of that problem.

Push and sync works again with my device. Also, the orange color in the Signal Status is gone and it is White again.
Found something in the OPO-Forum (thanks to gabriel3714):
Go to:
google.com /Settings /security
under section "account permissions" find "apps and websites" and click "view all" then try and revoke access to you OPO and any other items that shouldn't be there. Then restart your phone.
If anybody still has Troubles, here are some other things to try which were sent to me in an email by Matt Oli:
If Sync isn't working when you're using your data, here are a few things to check for:
•Make sure that Background data is enabled◦Phone settings> Data Usage> Scroll down to Gmail and make sure that "Restrict background data" is not selected.
•Disable Power saving mode
•Clear your App's cache and data◦Open Phone settings> Select Application manager> Swipe to "All"> Choose Gmail> Clear cache and data
•Limit your folder size◦Open Gmail via a desktop> Settings> Forwarding and POP/IMAP> Next to "IMAP access" select "Limit folder size"
•Try Unsyncing your Gmail account temporarily. Try this a few times.◦Settings> Accounts> Google> Select your account> Uncheck Gmail> Check Gmail
•Resetting IMAP◦Gmail> Settings> POP/IMAP> Disable POP & IMAP> Save Settings> Re-enable IMAP> Save Settings
•Remove Gmail Account and setup again◦Phone Setting> Accounts> Google> Select you email account> "Remove account"
◦Re-establish account.

Play services syncing

About a month ago I turned off the "sharing device info" option in Google settings. Now after I turn it back on it doesn't actually "turn back on" and the issue has plagued all devices with my account now. Although it's turned back on it doesn't save a list of my installed apps or system state and after a few reboots the option is turned back off. I've tried doing a clean flash and setting up as a new device or even restoring from a previous one but no dice. Upon calling Google support to see if they could just reset the option they advised me to "contact my device manufacturer to help in configuring" so they were a lot of help. /s
Has anyone else had to deal with this issue?
I'm running lollipop fwiw.

(6045Y) Idol 3 - Google Play Services problem

Hello, it's my first post here so be lenient if you might.
My Idol 3 5.5 came back from repair (power button not working) and they replaced motherboard in order to fix it.
Everything seemed fine until I got home, connected to WiFi and tried to use Google Play. I downloaded all updates pending and tried to use WhatsApp. It said my time and date are wrong, I tried to change it few times, nothing helped. I uninstalled WhatsApp and Messenger (since it didn't work too) and tried to reinstall them. Suddenly notification about Google Play Services update popped out so as it said I did. After the update I've been greeted with whole bunch of similar notifications informing me that none of my apps will work and I have to update Google Play Services. That's a shame I already did... Tried cleaning cache and uninstalling updates etc. Nothing helped, still unable to use apps. After a while It has shown that it can't sync with my Google account, then informed me that I need to connect to the internet in order to use Google Play (I obviously was on my WiFi and internet connection was available, switched to mobile data and same occured). I performed factory reset, the phone didn't boot fo 10 minutes showing Alcatel animation so I turned it off. I opened service menu (power + vol up) and performed wipe from there, rebooted, phone started, configured it and same thing happened - no Google Play for me. I did it one more time, carefully logging in Google Account, not rushing anything in order not to screw up. Still nothing. At this moment I'm really frustrated since I can't use my phone and I'd really not want to send it to repair one more time since it lasts 2 weeks to get it back. Any ideas on how to fix it? Web browser worked fine, sms worked, phone calls were fine. Any ideas?

Maybe give Mobile Upgrade Q a try? It will flash the latest firmware available for your device and will probably fix any software-related problem
Factory reset and then turn on automatical time syncing. Wish you good luck.

Couldn't sign in - there was a problem communicating with Google servers

Started two days ago and booted me right out of Google Play. I didn't worry because I thought this is a WiFi error or google service might be affected.
After a couple of hours I started searching for a solution. There is no connection error, two wifi networks working.
First was to clear the cache on Google apps and services. I did that, reboot and nothing happened.
Second one was to remove the account and to add it back. I removed it, cleared cache, reboot. I was silly to test this, and now the phone is without any account - cannot add it back. cannot backup or restore.
Third one was speaking about some Google apps beeing disabled - I was encouraged that yes, indeed some Google app was disabled (Google Play Music). So I enabled it, I cleared cache, reboot and still nothing.
There was some old ideas that second-factor authentication might prevent connecting - I tested anyway, this is not the case here. Not connecting.
Any other idea or test? I am thinking of Factory reset.

HTC U11 Google accounts crash on log in

Hi folks, had an issue with my camera/torch on my U11. I've had it for about 3 yrs and no troubles. It began crashing with the message "Unable to load the camera" and the torch icon was greyed out. I could see the samera dialog when I pressed the "Clear All" button, but it woul;dn't activate. The tech looked at it and said I could try a factory reset to see if that solves the problem, otherwise they could burn several hours troubleshooting software or replacing the camera, if that was the problem.
I have everything backed up on my Google account, messages, contacts, apps etc, so I tried the factory reset. Had some issues with Google Play crashing initially, once I got past the language change. The app crashed several times before I finally got it to load. Not wanting to restore everything at once, I skipped the step to restore apps from back up and data and went right to the clean phone. Now, when I try and open Google Play Store (or add a Google Account or anything Google), the app crashes just as it gets to the login screen. I've tried re-booting, clearing the cache, disabling the Boost+ as someone suggested in another forum, re-started, checked notifications and permissions but nothing seems to work...time for a new phone or does anyone have any ideas... thanks. Chris

I removed the micro-SD external storage and turned off the WiFi and it connected. Still no camera or torch/flashlight, which is why I went through the whole exercise to begin with. At least I can now log into Google (Play Store, GMail, accounts, etc)....

Thanks bud...while I am capable of going the DIT route, I'm time poor and have already burned a number of hours just getting to the point where I can now at least log in to my Google accounts to re-install apps and such. I will need a camera going forward, but will likely take the easy route that most camera makers prefer and buy a new one...I appreciate you taking your time to reply. Thanks!!
