PLEASE HELP!! Glitch is KILLING ME!!!

So I recently did a manual update to 2.3.2 , and since that update I've been getting this glitch that is annoying the heck out of me. While I'm on the phone , I hear the lock sound , as if I locked the phone. I checked to see if my finger hit the lock button and it was nowhere near it. I happens every once in a while but geez its annoying...Has anyone heard of or had this issue? If so PLEASE HELP. I've tried restoring the device and the glitch continues

It may be a part of your settings or a 3rd party application that is being restored after you restored your device. Try restoring your device again. This time DO NOT sign into gmail at the prompt. Instead, choose SKIP. Click the market icon from the app drawer and sign in from there. This prevents market from automatically installing apps, as well as restoring previous backed up settings.

Alternatively, couldn't you just turn the lockscreen sound off? I always forget there is even a sound because I turn it off.

I'm confused because my phone doesn't have a lock sound and hasn't since I first turned it on

Check that Settings -> Sound -> Screen lock sounds is off

[Q] Cant pull down notification bar

Hey Guys, Ive got an infuriating problem. I cant pulldown my notification bar, my notifications just sit there taunting me, or at least they did till I remembered the dedicated nav key option lg offers but still I don't want to have a non functioning notification bar. I didnt do anything to my phone around the time this happenEd, just picked it up and found I couldn't pull it down. I've tried restarting, reflashing and wiping. I've even got it back to "unrooted" status in both the settings and download mode incase its a digitiser issue. Any thoughts guys? Id rather not loose my pride and joy for a week at the least if you guys have some ideas.
Thanks for your time and assistance :fingers-crossed:

I jave tje same issue are you using the xsposed because thats about wen mine happened. After i updated i noticed the center clock freezes and notification wont pull down. How ever a system ui reboot(soft reboot) fixes my issue

I might have done something with xsposed, maybe hiding the location icon. I reflashed the entire phone so Im pretty sure that includes a ui reboot somewhere in there. Also I found out it works in landscape mode, I can just pull it down like regular. Using the dev features "show touches" "show touch data" in none of my touches are recognised where the notification bar would be (top 1/4th inch near mic) even when in landscape mode.

Thanks for the suggestions guys

So you wrote xposed? Or are you saying you enabled things in xsposed

I enabled things, not many, if any. They would have been enabled for a while tho before the problem arose. Wouldn't reflashing the system wipe out any software changes?

I just picked a Unlocked Verizon G2 today that is having that same issue all other functions seem to work fine.. the phone is in perfect comdition and my friend said he never dropped it or any thing, he gave me a deal I jus couldn't pass up.

small Google Bug I noticed

Ok people tested this with another person and he confirmed also.
1)Make sure advance calling is off
2) Activate developer options if u havent already done so.
3) find windows transitions and change to off for all three
4) clear all left open windows using the far bottom right button
5) Go to dailer and see the keypad gone.
Any ideas why this would be? and for me the only way to get back is changing the transistion back to .5 for all three and clearing all the windows again. Its odd. i didn't try with advance calling because advance calling is still alpha stage in my opinion.

Thats been there from ages!
It has nothing to do with advance calling though.... i think its something google knows but didnt care to fix cuz lollipop is already out with a whole new dialer! One work around is press on the dialer icon and press back again... You get the dial pad!

Moto Maxx here, same thing. But if you go back and then again to the dialer it does show up.

Its been like that forever.....I have mine set to .5 because of it. Annoyed the crap out of me.

I'm not sure it can be called a bug when developer options are merely for developer testing and development scenarios. Its not being used as intended, so unexpected results show up occasionally.

Quick Lauch Camera (Double Tap Home Button) won't work on J5 2016

Could someone help me with this problem? Any methods how to enable this feature? It suddenly disappear on my Settings menu. My phone is rooted by the way..

open camera, go to camera settings, enable quick launch

What I mean is that, it actually disappeared on the settings. I don't know what's wrong. I recently review all the things I've done but still nothing. Also I tried reflashing my Stock ROM, still nothing works..

HTC U11 - Oreo 8.0 Buglist

I'm creating this thread to collect bugs found in the Oreo software that devs can take a look at for their ROMs, and possibly report to HTC depending on importance.
My first bug is cosmetic. The app icons are not consistent at all, and this goes further than the home screen launcher. If you hit the share button, the size of the icons vary, some big and some small.
My second bug is a little more annoying, and I'm not sure how to replicate. I was using Google Maps in and out of PiP mode (I drive Uber, so I come in and out of Maps constantly), and after some extensive switching, the PiP app wouldn't maximize, and my Recent Apps panel would not activate. The actual recents button could still activate multi-window, but it wouldn't cycle through the last two apps or activate the Recents carousel. The behavior returned to normal after a reboot. I am currently stock rooted, but I'm quite certain that has nothing to do with this issue. I will report if this happens again, and pay more attention to any possible causes. I might report this one to HTC.
My third bug is cosmetic, but a little on the annoying side. When switching Bluetooth audio profiles (found in dev options, for those who don't know), the codec that is displayed doesn't change, but you still hear the difference in audio. Also, aptx HD doesn't work for me. When selected, I hear no difference in the sound.

Ok....so my nav buttons are not working, but my home button is still working....am In the only one who is experiencing this? It is very sporadic, and fixes with a reboot.

You're not the only one. My Nav buttons stopped responding 3 times in last 2 days. Had to restart.

PIP is not convenient to use now. For example, you can open youtube.com in chrome, request desktop site, play some video in fullscreen, press home button, then you get your PIP feature.

After update my battery reduction too much..

Maybe not exactly bugs, but a few things that bother me are how ugly the icons are and that it's using the default notification sound when I'm on low battery and it plays the notification sound coming in and out of night mode as well. I don't need to be notified with a sound about coming in and out of night mode and I'd prefer the regular buzz buzz sound of the low battery rather than thinking I got a message of something.

I hate the persistent notifications of things running in the background or drawing over... Not a bug, but a 'feature'.

It might seem a weird thing to do but try clearing cache and data from Google play services, playstore etc. I remember when I turned off all permissions to playservices my buttons stopped working as well except home button. Worth a try.

here the second solution works for me in my htc u11 whit oreo
https://www.thecustomdroid.com/hide-persistent-notifications-on-android-oreo/

Turn on Wi-Fi automatically
Turn on Wi-Fi automatically function is missing in wifi preferences, according to oreo new function it as to be there

The settings area on top has got to be the stupidest thing they have done. "Suggestions". Who the hell cares about it. Mine will not go away. Keeps saying connect usonic ear phones. I deleted all of touch pal junk as well.

Third option worked great for me. Thanks

Probably more a feature than a bug, but I miss being able to pull down the notification shade and toggling between Do Not Disturb, Priority Mode, and Normal. Now tapping the icon just turns on Priority Mode. I can't seem to find an easy way to turn on Do Not Disturb without long-pressing the icon. Does anyone else know a better way?

You can turn off the night mode notification. I set it to still show the icon in the top bar but not make a sound. It took a while to find, and I forget where it is. Maybe the notification settings for the system app.

When the screen is off and you double click the power button to access camera, it will not pop up with a preference choice (assuming you have more than one camera installed) unless you time it exactly with putting your fingerprint on the scanner

My shortcut options when you long press an icon are completely gone on every launcher.
Edit: Suddenly works. Odd.

My phone's bluetooth connects with my car's. Tried to play spotify But the audio plays on my phone still. My car sees th title of the song, just for display....Wasn't like this before the update... Must be the bluetooth 5.0 thing?
