General thread for people having issues with new OS
For me its notifications and the lock screen. Perhaps its simple, but im not seeing it. (Apps have been given priority, heads up are enabled, show all notification content) Phone lights up makes notification sound, but i have to unlock it to see the notification eg text, email, fb etc.
Also my clock no longer shows up on the lock screen. How do i fix it?
Anyone know how to reinstall the feature so when i enter my pin in automatically unlocks?
cheers
The device became slow in many situations, like locking/unlocking, opening any app, trebuchet always FC when I start/restart the device, the device getting heat, the response in general is slow. I will switch back to Resurrection Remix.
Hi guys,
I've been running CM 13 for a while on my moto x play. I've had no problems with it until this last update and installing some themes.
After updating it, I downloaded some themes, applied them and received the "system ui has crashed" or something message on screen.
After this the wallpaper has turned black (no change if I try to change it manually), the animations for the lower bar (triangle, dot, square) are not showing, dragging the upper status bar takes several seconds to show, when my cellphone is unlocked the response of the system is extremely extremely slow. If I drag my fingers up to unlock it, it will take a long time. The funny thing is besides these, there are no problems apparently. If i go to settings, things run smoothly, chrome, facebook, whatsapp, etc. but any interaction with: status bar, lower bar, locked screen is extremely slow.
I mistakenly thought it was an update bug or smth and reinstalled a past update, but issues remain.
What happened and how can I correct this?
Well you said it yourself that the problems started after applying a theme. Did you try to reset to the system default theme?
Also never downgrade CM versions because that will only cause more problems than solving them.
If nothing helps I would recommend a clean installation because I don't have any problems with CM13 and any themes. Also some themes require a restart after applying.
Same thing happened to me as well. The status bar was not to be seen and there was no wallpaper. Did a clean installation and it was all ok. I am not sure which themes were installed back then.. But if you could share the ones that you installed, it might help!
As many know the beta went live for Sprint, Unlocked, and T-Mobile customers earlier today so I thought (since I didn't see one posted already) that a thread of our experiences with it so far would be nice to have.
So far here is a list of bugs some comments have posted in this thread:
Laggier than Nougat
Live Messages force close
Adhell2 frequent force closes
Bluetooth fails to turn on until reboot
Random reboots
Personally, it feels snappier in nearly all operations when using Nova Launcher Prime, but it's when I switched back to TouchWiz that I've noticed that it feels much more responsive than it did before. It feels much better.now and I'm going to use Touchwiz for a few days and see if it's worth using now.
The one area I was really hoping that would have seen an improvement would be swiling to the right for Bixby, which feels worse now somehow. While Bixby seems a little better when activating with voice, and the new interface for Bixby home does look nicer (personal opinion, obviously) the actually swiping is still a slow mess.

Keep getting an app called mobile downloader in notification panel up to the left, can't clear it can only snooze it, wtf, I like a tidy left notification panel especially on the left

I got this also on sprint, I just forced closed it. Comes back with a reboot but whatever, the notification is gone
I like a tidy notification panel/Status bar as well and I'm now noticing more than usual notifications that I don't like:
"so and so app is running in the background" and I can't disable it. That's annoying.

I'm on T-Mobile. You may need to do a cache clear and reboot it. I know that can clear up lag after an update sometimes. Always worth a shot if you haven't already.

It's stable, has silly bugs but on a whole it's much to do about nothing.
It's not a case of Samsung at all, it's android itself. Google just don't bring much to the table anymore
samsung keyboard forced closed but came back in a reboot, usually use gboard though, so im going back to that
I have been running 8.0 Beta 1 for about 8 hours now, and have also reverted back to TouchWiz from Nova so I can view the full experience. So far, everything is faster. No issues with any content or apps already loaded from 7. I have only noticed one small, split-second glitch so far, and that was an animation delay returning to the Home screen from using an app. 30 apps sitting in Recents right now, so could have happened just the same on 7. Regardless, I am completely content, and have already forgotten that were talking about a beta, let alone Beta 1. Surprisingly good job Samsung, and I'm still in shock that we even have Oreo already, to be honest... Looking forward to further testing and the finished release.
My S8 is my only cellphone phone , I consider myself a Android enthusiasts. I love tweaking settings.and I'm always on my phone. Do you think the beta is stable enough ? to install theOreo beta i have already downloaded it I just want to see, if the apps are closing , crashing, buggy ,rebooting ect. The occasional hiccup will be no big deal thanks in advance for your response
Does anyone else's Live Messages force close while using the messaging app? I ask because I previously installed the Note 8 Live Messages mod before I installed the Oreo Update and I'm not sure if that may be the reason why it is now force closing.

Personally it has been snappier with no app crashes. I have had Facebook crash and some other app I don't remember, but it was something else I had installed and not a major component and it has only been once for both, but Facebook had issues all week since I re-enabled it. It has just now been working better (POS app anyway.)
That and the annoying to me notification panel are the only things. No bugs, lag, etc but I can't speak on battery yet... So far it seems in line, but I don't really know until tomorrow.

No problems with Messages here, but I haven't modded it from the Note app so I dunno, and this version doesn't have the Live messages feature still, so I'm going to guess that might be the issue there.

It still isn't as fast at going back to home as other apps, but it's a far better transition than it has been.

Ok, phone just rebooted while sitting at my desk. Nothing was going on and the last app I had opened was dialer. Hoping that doesn't turn into a trend.

thought poweramp was not working, turns out it had lost my music folder on the sd card and I had to point it at it again.
How is the battery life?
I have been experiencing the same issue. Whenever I select it on the keyboard the message "Live Messenger has closed" appears and the phone just vibrates on me. I tried a reboot to get it to work and still no change. I am also constantly getting "New Messaging Features" appearing in my message bar, over and over and when I click "Start" I do not get the code and get it completely registered. Not sure if that is adding to the issue as well.

For the last few months I've been missing a lot of notifications on my S8 that previously worked flawlessly, both before and after I updated to Pie back in January.
Some apps like discord, Messenger and Snapchat need to be opened to check for new messages. If they aren't, a message notification can take anywhere between 10 minutes to a couple of hours to come through.
For each app I'm getting this problem with I've made sure that I've done the following:
- set the app to be not optimised in battery settings
- set the app to be allowed to run in the background in battery settings
- set the app to not be checked in memory in device care
- verified that no power saving mode is on
I've also done a complete factory reset of my phone and that didn't solve the issue.
I've noticed that in my battery usage monitor the apps I'm having problems with have no background usage at all. I have no problems with WhatsApp and it has hours of background usage each day but discord has 0m of background usage.
This leads me to believe the S8 is killing the app in the background. When I'm actively using the app (it's open or has only been in the background for a minute) it seems to work fine. But after a little while I'll stop getting notifications and when I open the app from my recents screen I see the splash screen as though I'm opening it for the first time and then after a few seconds I get the notifications from the last few hours.
I haven't been able to find any other settings that could be killing an app in the background that is both not battery optimised and not memory checked.
Any other people with this issue or know of a solution?
