Hi,
I do not use the Yellow pages app provided by Xiaomi and I have never run it before.
Therefore, in the settings, I have removed the Telephone permission.
However, after reboot, the phone was crashing in loop when displaying the Lock screen.
The only way I have found to fix it was to wipe data and doing that removes all personal files from storage memory (pictures and so on). :crying:
I have attempted to change many settings during the week-end and reproduced that issue.
I am sure about what I say:
Warning : you can remove permissions to any pre-installed app except the Telephone permission for the Yellow pages app.
Have fun

First of all, appreciate android1234567 for bringing us the latest version of Android to our Sensation.
However, I found that my device was stuffing from these scenarios:
Device become unresponsive after typical usage (e.g. unable to lock screen, switch to other application, unlock the device). In this situation, the device "hang up", showing the same scren until (Reboot was triggered from power button or removal of battery) Refer to 20140116 logcat
Missing notification (Download Triggered from internal browser doesn't visible in the notifiction bar, but visible in the Downloads app, Refer to 20140117 logcat
WhatsApp failed to create daily backup
unable to install some apk (such as adobe flash player - I hate to use this app, but may website require this damn thing ; is that SeLinux related)
edit : it seems that the first scenario was caused by the second one, since after reboot the missing notification appeared immediately
I am running android 6.0.1 official version from samsung for my tab s2 t710 with august security patch. Now th problem is related to the new permission system in android m.for eg i installed an app and now it wants permission to storage or other stuff i press on allow but then it tells me about screen overlay detected ok I guess?!? Open settings allow permission and THEN IT just doesnt allow me to do anything related permission giving.i have to go to the safe mode to do things but then for some stupid reson my homescreen gets messed as all user apps are removed but then when reboot again to normal mode its still the same messed homescreen!!!!!!in other android devices i found that it automatically rearranged all the stuff back to original place but here !?!?!??!!

You won't see your user apps in safe mode because safe mode only loads your system apps, the stuff that is supposed to be there and works like it supposed to, that's why it is called safe mode(it loads only system apps to avoid loading something you added that is causing issues).
When it gives you the overlay error, are you going to system settings>apps to find the option to disable overlay? I don't see it in your screenshots. After disabling overlay you should be able to change the storage permission.
That's the problem here. Basically after i open settings to allow the app for the permission it says screen overlay detected. Then it takes me directly to settings, application manager, and then to app that can draw over other apps. Unfortunately, that's what I can get through because the apps list the on off is blacked out no matter what I do. What do i do then please help very annoying.!!??!
Can somebody help ?
Please help
Dear,
I recently upgraded to Android Nougat on my Mate 8 (AL10C00B575) with EMUI 5.0.
i'm using multiple app that need to stay active and cannot be killed:
Currently I whitelisted those app in "Phone Manager - cleanup - settings - Memory whitelist", but they keep getting killed.
Still when i open up the list of running apps (square icon in navigation bar) and click on the recycle bin, those apps are still killed.
a few examples of the effect after I clicked the recycle bin to clean all apps although the below are whitelisted:
Facebook Messenger: not receiving any notification anymore of incoming chats. The messenger bubble on the homescreen doesn't even appear.
Screen filter: when screen is dimmed using this application, cleaning the apps restores the normal brightness of the screen which indicates that app was killed
Twilight light: similar to Screen filter
Automate: running fibers are all killed and a reboot doesn't restart them as I would expect
Alarm Clock Xtreme free: when the apps are cleaned, the alarms are not taken into account by the OS anymore and hence don't go off...We can clearly see the app kill as the alarm icon disappear from the status bar when cleaning apps
many many more
I've also attemted to add all those apps as "allowed apps" in the Battery Optimizations (Settings - Apps - Settings - Special Access - Ignore optimisations), but this didn't make any difference.
Please help as this is very annoying... I never had this behaviour with Android 6.0 (EMUI 4.1).
Regards,
Thib
I'm getting same problem,and i did all those above stuff?
my apps getting crash after screen off,
I had this problem on l29c432b560 and still have this on my current firmware (l29c185b560)
I did factory reset to make sure there's nothing wrong with my ROM but no luck

This is a software problem....I Tried many solutions but in vain....Recently I bricked my phone then I left it away in the closet and took my daughter's Lenovo a7000 then I discovered this bad software of Huawei....With Lenovo a7000 I faces no issue at all ...all working...GMD gesture control....whatsapp...etc....I will never be back to Huawei after a year of suffering .....Samsung S8 will be my next phone....and now I feel good I bricked my mate 8...
The only was work,i put all Apps Whatsapp Facebook...
in System/App Folder and give right Permissions.
I have no Problems with Notifications.
I am on C432B560.
Permissions:
Apk and odex files rw-r--r--
Folders rwxr-xr-x
.so files (Whatsapp) rwxrwxrwx
This works for me.
Your Phone must be rooted.
Did anyone find a solution? I find this highly annoying. When you listen to files with a player and the screen goes off, the playback stops as the damn app is killed. I am thinking to go back to Android 6..

I already installed Strava y Whatsap cutting from Data/app and pasting on System/app, and changing permission according to the instructions. However, now, Strava isn't listed in "Battery>Close App when screen is blocked" , however Whatsapp is listed.
Has anyone any explanation to that?
Something else I don't understand, the apps listed in "Battery>Close App when screen is blocked" which are selected to close. These apps really don't close when screen in blocked. Why?
Thanks in advance.
I'm also facing the same problem in Huawei P9 with EMUI 5.0.1. I have tried every ways in the forums.
Fix
I was able to fix this by going to Settings < Battery < Close Apps after screen Lock <
And then make sure you turn all apps to "Don't close".
Hope this helps
Same problem with Honor 9 & Android 7 (EMUI 5.0)
Tryed everything explained, but some aplications get killed after a while...

I managed to find the same fix as well but stumbled upon another issue. I have a P10+.
If you would go to phone manager and do an optimization scan, all the apps that are unchecked to be closed when you lock the screen now show up as to be skipped when doing a memory clean so I say, ok, fine, let's get them off the whitelist, but that makes them checked back up to be closed during screen lock.
Does anyone know if these two lists are interlinked?
This is not meant to be a detailed tutorial, but rather an overview of the struggle I had to root and modify a Wiko Lenny 3 (with links for convenience), so others can benefit.
About a week ago I purchased a Wiko Lenny 3, a device with minimal RAM specs (1GB) for Marshmallow. This creates problems with app-notifications due to the Phone Assist (/system/vendor/operator/app/ApePhoneAssist) and Protected Apps (/system/app/CustomWhitelist) software that is pre-installed by Wiko to compensate for the low RAM.
First, I freshstarted the phone and put in the basic configuration. I immediately updated the system to OTA version V54.
Then I flashed TWRP 3.0.3-0 with SPFlashtool from this site:
http://www.needrom.com/download/recovery-twrp-wiko-lenny-3/ .
There is also TWRP 3.0.2 available but that DID NOT WORK on my phone:
http://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6isv8b6duCrbjdJbDVlRFpONlk/view
After that I rooted the thing via TWRP with SuperSU.zip, and installed Xposed via TWRP. I debloated the phone by removing most Google trash.
I use Syncthing to sync the contents of my external SD card to other devices. But Syncthing needs write permission on the SD card and Marshmallow mounts the SD card read only, and can only give write permission to the ./Android folder on the SD card. I fixed this with XInternalSD. The other option, Marshmallow SD Fix 2.0, DID NOT WORK.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/xposed-marshmallow-sd-fix-write-t3403263
So far, so good. However, after a while I noticed that FaceSlim (lightweight FB client) did not send push notifications. FaceSlim works perfectly on my old KitKat phone and also on a Lollipop tablet. So I checked running processes with OSMonitor and it turned out that FaceSlim was not being autostarted at boot. Some other services were not autostarted at boot as well:
AFWall+
Applock
DataStats
EZ Wifi Notification
FDroid
MaterialFBook
WiFi Automatic
Xprivacy
I have K-9 Mail installed as well but that app actually DID send notifications, for a while at least, later on it would not work anymore.
DataStats would not stay on screen if I forced closed it after starting it manually.
AFWall+ would only start if I added the widget on the home screen.
I tried every recommendation, like disabling doze mode for all apps and whitelisting the apps in Wiko's "Phone Assist" app, an overly aggressive resource manager that is shipped on Wiko phones, probably to make up for the low RAM. Nothing would autostart the apps.
So, I decided to flash the phone to its original state, using the official vanilla ROM from Wiko (V54), just to see if rooting screwed up the phone:
http://nl.wikomobile.com/maj.php?telephone=1246
After flashing the phone, I tried to get notifications from FaceSlim, but that still wouldn't work, so i guess the problem was not in my rooting the phone.
I also tried to flash TWRP again but this DID NOT WORK WITH THE DOWNLOADED ROM FROM WIKO (as opposed to the OTA update). TWRP got installed, but the phone would hang at startup at the Lenny logo, not booting to the UI.
Fortunately I had a TWRP backup of the old system and I flashed it, I could again boot into the UI now.
I found that other users experienced similar behaviour:
http://www.android-hilfe.de/thema/a...enachrichtigungen-funktionieren-nicht.781196/ (German)
http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...ground-sync-processes-wiko-lenny-3-what-to-do
As said earlier the Wiko has two pre-installed apps that manage autostart behaviour and power management.
1 - The "Phone Assist" software has a "Boot Optimize" screen. This feature does work for some apps, but not at boot level. When I deny autostart for AFwall+, it comes up after a reboot and is killed shortly thereafter. If I disable everything in Boot Optimize, the switch for Applock and Wetteronline returns to enabled after a reboot. Moreover, it cannot prevent Instagram from starting, one power hungry app.
2 - Phone Assist also has a "Power Management > Power saving" mode presumably to restrict network acces for apps in screen-off mode. This could be the same as the 3rd party Doze apps on Google Play that use a local VPN to restrict per-app network acces in standby mode. It is debatable if this saves much power, and there could be a security risk.
3 - Phone Assist also has in "Power Management > Advanced > Gear icon > Whitelist" (free translation, my language is Dutch) a screen to "whitelist background apps". If you whitelist an app here, it is simultaneously enabled in the previous menu ("Power Management > Power saving"), so I suspect this menu is redundant.
After playing around with the various settings in "Phone Assist", NOT A SINGLE APP WOULD START AT BOOT ANYMORE, even if I whitelisted all.
4 - The "Protected Apps" feature, found in the Android Settings, will allow you to whitelist apps for autostart. If you put this app in default mode, it will select some apps to start at boot by itself. If you whitelist apps, they indeed do start at boot. But "Protected Apps" has a limit of four apps that are allowed to autostart. This makes use of the phone for social networking/email very limited. Some Huawei phones have this feature too, and also with a limit of four apps. This is clearly an attempt to make up for the low RAM in this device, preventing users from running too many background apps. "Protected Apps" overrides all "Phone Assist > Boot Optimize" settings, making the latter effectively useless.
5 - On top of that there is the native Marshmallow Doze mode, which requires that you whitelist apps from Doze power management.
As you can see this is a complete mess. To enable/disable an app from autostart or power saving modes you have to visit two to five configuration screens. Tinno is the company that programmed this disaster (http://tinno.com/homepage?lang=en). Actually Wiko phones seem to be rebranded Tinno phones.
"Phone Assist" also has a junk cleaner (powered by Purify) that notified me once in a while asking me to delete SEVERAL GIGABYTES of junk. I had absolutely no desire to try that one ...
You can find so-called fixes on youtube for background apps that don't start, which involves installing QuickShortcutMaker, and enabling Low RAM via One Clean. That does not work on this phone.
There is a way to circumvent these autostart/powersave restrictions without removing the Wiko apps. With Link2SD or LuckyPatcher you can convert a user app to a system app. That way the app will start at boot and will send you notifications as well.
However, I wanted to get rid of this badly programmed mess altogether, and keep my apps running as user apps, so I have removed Phone Assist, its separate uninstaller, One Clean, and Protected Apps.
After deinstalling Phone Assist with SDmaid I manually removed "/system/vendor/operator/app/ApePhoneAssist" and "/data/dalvik-cache/arm/[email protected]@[email protected]@@[email protected]@classes.dex"
In /system/build.prop I edited the line "ro.tinno.whitelist.set=true" to "ro.tinno.whitelist.set=false". I don't know what that line does exactly, but it's just to be on the safe side. I think this setting is overwritten if you reinstall Phone Assist or Protected Apps.
I whitelisted some Social Media and Mail apps in Marshmallow native Doze mode.
After a few reboots some of my autostart apps started to reappear at boot, but not all. Only after I started the missing apps manually from the launcher they would appear after a reboot, and persist.
Later, I made a TWRP backup, and after that I wiped the cache and dalvik/art-cache with TWRP. Evertyhing went well.
Wiping the dalvik-cache can be a risky thing, it once left me with Android trying to optimize nine apps at every boot. I turned out that those were apps that I converted from user app to system app, and back. I removed those apps and reinstalled them and the optimization at boot went away.
So now every app starts at boot as it should, but it would be nice if this "Protected Apps" feature would not have a limit of four apps to boot, because then we would have a nice integrated boot manager. If anyone can find out if it is possible to modify this limit I would be much obliged
EDIT: So, three years later and I still have this phone. I have recently installed update v59 and encountered the same problems. After deleting PhoneAssist and ProtectedApps only a few of my apps worked right, and that was only after multiple reboots. Other apps would still not show notifications. However after I edited /system/build.prop and changed this line to "ro.tinno.low_memory=false" all apps suddenly worked correctly. Maybe this would even work with PhoneAssist and ProtectedApps still installed, but I don't care to find out at this point.
Didn't work for me, but...
Hi,
If someone has the same problem and stumbles on this post...
Setting ro.tinno.whitelist.set=false didn't work for me, probably because I aggressively modified the stock ROM to remove most of the vendor apps (including this PhoneAssist and Bootclean crap).
What actually worked for me was to set ro.tinno.low_memory=false. After that, all apps supposed to start at boot, actually did.
Once I'll finish my tests and use the phone for a couple of weeks, I intend to post a complete guide explaining how to uncrappify this phone (it's wonderful what you can do once you manage to successfully flash TWRP).
Wiko Lenny 3 2 gb RAM and 16 gb ROM
Hi guys, I have a clone of Wiko Lenny 3 commercialized in Tunisia under the name of EVERTEK EVERSTAR PRO 2. The device that I now has 2gb Ram and 16 gb of Internal storage, but the original version of the Wiko Lenny 3 has only 1 gb Ram. I confirm that is exactly the same device same processor same camera and screen. So I was wondering if I can flash my phone with the official Wiko Rom ? Does android indentifie Ram and Internal storage from the Phone ? Pleaaase Help me .. and sorry for my English

Yes, I installed update v59 and "ro.tinno.low_memory=false" works for me too, thanks!
For the last 10-15 days, I am getting a random screen that shows my application shortcuts like common apps, recently accessed apps, favorite apps along with Ads. The screen appears randomly and is very annoying.
I suspect this is result of some App that has got upgraded. I am not sure how to go about identifying the offending app. I don't want to do a factory reset or resort to disabling Apps one by one.
Any pointers to resolving this would be helpful. Is there any way I can upload the screen shot of the app.
