[Q] "No Client" notification popup! What is it? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm running stock 4.3 on my Nexus 4 (unrooted). Recently I've been getting this "No Client" notification popup at the bottom of my screen, it's independent of the app or window I'm on. It's driving me mad, I really don't know what it is.
Can anyone help?

Anybody with any clues? Ideas about suspect Apps or settings?

its one of your apps, 100%.

How do I find out which app?

you can uninstall your apps, then install them one by one until you find the guilty app. or you can go through all your apps settings until you find it.

I'm thinking I should look for an app running in the background? Or can the popup/alert show up from any app? Oh boy, I have a lot of apps, it's gonna take a while!

This is driving me nuts..ive uninstalled/reinstalled most of my apps..and i still get this nagging popup!!

Do you use "Android Widget Pro" ?

Happens on my stock Nexus 5 as well.

Happening on my stock Nexus 7 2013 more and more frequently. Hopefully someone can identify the guilt app so I don't have to rebuild.
And no I don't use Android Widget Pro.

This has been bothering me for months. It has to be an app but I have no idea which one. I have over 200 apps installed so although the uninstall/reinstall idea would be effective, it is not practical for me. If the message was consistent maybe, but its not. Anyone with less apps installed want to try?

Same for me on my Nexus 4. Getting insane!!!

how about a screen shot of what you are seeing? I'm not getting the popup on my N4 or N7.

I am getting this with my Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet. I wonder what causes this. It makes Android feel unpolished.

I have this on my XDA 1. As i don't have many apps I'll list them below and see if you notice any the same. hope this helps/works.

forget it, i've got more apps than i thought....

I unlocked my bootloader, rooted and installed CM. Installing my apps day by day and the stupid toast started appearing last night. I'll try to narrow down the app based on the time of install.
Right now I'm suspecting Pocket Casts.

Got the issue on my 2013 Nexus 7, unrooted. I'm not using Pocket Casts, using BeyondPod as a podcast client.

How about greader pro? I've been reading on another thread that turning location options off then on again in Google Settings sorts the problem.

No not using that app either. Mine is becoming more frequent, its annoying but not annoying enough to do a factory wipe. Hopefully someone will narrow down the issue to an app or setting soon!

Facebook Android App on the N10

I can't figure out why the Facebook App on the N10 acts differently than on my N7 and N4.
For example I can't access my timeline by clicking on my profile as usual, instead it only shows a protocol of my last actions/activities.
It doesn't seem normal to me, is it a bug on the N10 out is it a crappy feature?

Same issue here. Pictures are missing too.
I've tried to force it to a different layout or size with Paranoid Android, but no joy
Try Friendcaster instead?
Friendcaster FTW :good:. It works perfectly, loads fast, runs great, and looks beautiful on the Nexus 10. I enjoyed it so much more over the official Facebook app that I decided to buy the ad free version .
Never even installed it, just got used to using the web version on my X2 cause the app sucks
What is facebook? Isn't every one on G+? Buahaha!!!!
I reported it two days ago. Been fixed today...
Problem with Friendcaster and other third party apps is that if any of your friends have set their privacy settings to not allow use of their timeline by third party apps, you won't see their posts.
Updated Facebook app today is way faster sometimes, but I'm also getting long hangs I never got before when tapping on notifications.
I generally on the N10 just look at FB in Chrome. Wish they'd get a tablet app out!
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 2
The latest update 121312 is really good... best version of FB app ever for Android.
Am I also supposed to get huge images in the timeline???

Next Browser?

Has anybody been using this browser on Nexus 4? I started and I really like it; less hangups than chrome, better interface (I like the disappearing url bar) than dolphin imo.
However, I noticed that it seems to be giving a wakelock any time a page has been opened, but the window has not been cleared from the recent apps list (this is all according to BBS).
I was just wondering if other N4 users had experienced this or used this app, and what your opinion on it was. Also, is there a different browser for the N4 you guys would recommend?

I`m a next browser user. Realy like it, fast and easy to use. And when i browse the web i get a popup message to use tapatalk if the web site support it. I know chrome also got this, but i find it not to work so well.
Yes, i have noticed that it got some wake locks. But not for long, its also possible to exit the app easy from setting menu

I had been using Next for a while now. But a couple days ago I replaced it with Firefox because Next had trouble downloading some files from Drive. If there was other aberrant behavior it wasn't noticable to me in use.
I use Chrome, but you can try Firefox or Opera. Every browser has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Setting Force close?

Upgraded to 4.4 with a clean wipe. I uninstalled some of the Google apps I never use such as currents ect. After awhile some apps start to force close such as settings. After I reboot or wipe cache or both the apps then reinstall themselves. Strange. I have never had a problem like this in any other version of android. Anyone else?

yea, i found out two weeks ago that you cant uninstall system apps in kitkat without getting a fc in settings. my way around it, i disabled 19 of the apps found in /system/app/ instead of deleting them. it seems to work just as well. pick any of the apps, select to view its info, tben press disable in the app info screen. itll remove that app from the app drawer as well.
Thanks Simms. Your one helpful dude! I always felt better totally getting ride of them to open up more space but it is what it is.

its what i do too, and always done. i have found that you can delete a few apps in /system/app/, like plus one, but they cant be considered system apps. its one of the first things i noticed about kitkat, that settings fc after removing system apps.

This is wrong on so many levels. After years rooting and running custom roms, I'm suddenly stuck with a load of bloatware if I upgrade to 4.4. I only use the account manager and Play Store and don't want any other Google apks, and would like to do without even those two, in fact I have no Google account 99% of the time and both are disabled unless I have to update something.
Hope there's a way out of this...

[Q] app drawer icon problem

Need some help. I've installed a speedometer app (switch that lights up the console in my truck went bad) and am having trouble getting rid of the icons in the app drawer. So far I've tried to reinstall the app and uninstall it with no luck. It doesn't show up in titanium after uninstalling the app. I can't find an apk after uninstalling the app. Any help?
What app? Can you back into the play store and install it that way?

Sorry. Forgot details. Locked bootloader, rooted running gpe ROM thru safestrap. Digihud speedometer is the app spedo app
I could upgrade nova launcher or use another launcher to hide the problem. And I would go insane knowing I didn't fix it.

Interesting app, it looks cool but it really f'd up my device. I could uninstall it with tibu but it left something behind. Do you have a nandroid you can restore? Do a wipe before restoring the nandroid. That was the only way I got my device back to normal

Well ****.
Hi, developer here
Hi guys, ok this is something I've not seen whilst testing it on the few physical devices I have and in the emulator. I'm not sure what's happening here but obviously I'm keen to help if I can.
The app has two main parts, the full screen display and a windowed view that is shown in front of other apps, the latter runs as a service. Both parts have settings in the manifest to enable them to be launched from icons and two icons are created when the app is installed. Whenever I've uninstalled the app both icons have been removed from the app drawer. My devices are mostly but not all rooted.
Feedback has been mixed about whether two icons are needed; some people don't want the window icon and ask how it can be removed, others like it so they can call it with other apps like AutomateIt. Because the majority of feedback was against it I've removed it from the paid version of the app...but now there are requests to have it again. Hopefully my solution will be to be able to install a shortcut if required.
Sorry, back to your problem! I'm surprised TIBU doesn't remove it if I'm honest, although the Android uninstall should remove it all. There's nothing unusual or malicious in the code (i'm really not that clever!) to prevent it uninstalling.
If a link to a particular version of the .apk helps let me know and I'll post it if I can.
I'll do some more testing and see what I can find and post anything useful here.
Sorry for the hassle.

Would a catlog help in troubleshooting the issue. As JD said it is an interesting app. The HUD display works great (very clever idea there), but I want to be able to remove that icon. I like to keep my app drawer paired down to as few apps as possible and that one icon sticks out to me.

Screen Turns on Every 6 Hours

My 6P, like every other Android device I have had, turns the screen on every day at 12:00 AM, 12:00 PM and 6:00 PM. It has to be an app that I install on all my Android devices, but I have been unable to nail it down. I am running the latest 7.1.1 dev preview. I'm not rooted. Does anyone know of a program I can install that will tell me which app is activating my screen every 6 hours? Sometimes the screen will only stay on for a short while, while other times, if I don't catch it, the screen will stay on for several minutes (of course eating the battery).
If anyone can help with an app suggestion or other ideas to find out which app is doing this, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
No one has a suggestion for an app that can tell me which app is turning on the screen every six hours?
Oh and there should be a 6:00 AM in there as well.
I guess the best way would be to go through the logs?? Not sure of any app as such.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Are there not apps that show wakelocks? Isn't turning on the screen even worse than a wakelock? I'm surprised that no one else has this issue. I can't be the only one that has an app that does this. Someone else must load the same app but to date I haven't been able to figure out which app does it or find anyone else who has the same app and problem.
Also, not sure where to even find the logs you speak of? Can anyone help or at least point me in the direction that I can read up on and try to find out which app it might be? Thanks.
You won't see anything unless you are rooted.
Only you can find the app.
Use dichotomy
Uninstall apps from A to M.
Test
OK go on with installing from N to S
NOT OK uninstall from F to M.
Test
etc..
For 128 apps you'll need 7 tests.
For 256 apps you'll need 8 tests.
Have fun ?

LOL...Yeah, I thought about this but c'mon...that's crazy to go app by app to try and find the culprit. Really don't want to root on the Beta Program with this phone so that's not going to happen. Sucks there isn't an app that could let me know which app is turning on the screen at that time without root. I tried GSam Battery Monitor, but it was no help unfortunately.
I was referring to logcat, but I assumed that we could make use of root, it's a lot harder without root. If you pulled a logcat to schedule a min before and end a minute after the event, it would be more than enough to find what's triggering the screen wake..
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Yeah, sorry, no root. I usually don't bother rooting my phones. At least the pure Nexus phones. Really no need to with straight Android and consistent updates from Google. Guess I'll never know what app is doing it. Oh well.
Depends... I personnaly don't need a specific ROM, I might need a kernel for better battery. But I definitely need root. Why? Because of exactly this: logcat on all processes and wakelocks monitoring ?
And more generally because I want to access to all features of my phone.
Oh don't get me wrong, I know why people root. I just couldn't be bothered to do it myself with a phone that runs pure Android like the 6P. I never said there was no reason to root, just said I don't do it myself.
Maybe list all your apps here?
sent from my pixelated Nexus 6p
Hmmmm....that would be a pretty big list.
hard to help you then. without knowing what you have on it, how can we make a suggest? frankly, it will take time to chase it down as you dont want to root.

Yeah, I get that. In order to root, I need to unlock the bootloader right? So total wipe. Really don't want to wipe and start over. Thanks anyway. Wish there was an app that didn't need root that would tell me which app is the cause. I have 123 apps installed. Would take forever to list them here.

this happens with mine too, i am using resurrection remix MM.
but happens with whatever rom base i am.
i dont have ambient display on or anything like daydream.
and it happens randomly, i think it is the proximity sensor that turns it on by itself.
because the way it happens for me is ,i grab the phone and dont even press any button and it turns itself on
but i think it could be caused by the 'double tap to wake' gesture , do you have the option 'prevent accidental wake up' in the settings? it checks the proximity sensor prior to waking up the device, i personally havent tried this option yet, but i think this could fix the issue.
I don't have ambient display on either, but I can't imagine it is a proximity sensor issue. It happens every 6 hours right on the hour. Every day, every 6 hours, on schedule. An app has to be waking the screen.
Um, so @pickupman66, you ask me to list my apps and I did. Now what?
