Any way to disable EPD for SKY Q app? - YotaPhone

I have had trouble with the Sky Q app in the UK since having a Yotaphone 2. It give an error when trying to watch the TV channels saying "Sorry, you can't stream anything whilst connected to another device". At first I though it was a mirrorcast issue but having just installed the Marshmallow beta, the first thing I did was try the Sky Q app and it worked. I then noticed that the EPD was just displaying the YOTAPHONE message and had not yet activated. I turned it on and got the clock showing but since then I get the error message again. There seems to be no way to 'turn off' the EPD to get it working again.
Any ideas?
Cheers

[Q] Post Flashing Problems from 0929 firmware: "new_system_cb.7z"

I was very happy to find this new firmware from 0929 from Christian as I was unhappy the way my aPad ZT-180 was running on the original firmware. It crashed on the time, but most everything worked ok. After upgrading my ROM, I'm now having a several problems I wanted to ask about.
1. When I turn on my WiFi under in WiFi Settings, the WiFi comes on and then I get a message at the bottom of the screen: "Unable to scan for networks", Then the WiFi turns itself off. I have the box called Network Notification checked too. (Before the ROM upgrade, I had no problem with WiFi connecting.)
2. The screen will not rotate by itself, even though I have the orientaion senor checked in System Prerferences. It seems to be stuck in the horizonal mode. However, when I run a couple of different programs, it switches to vertical and then will not go back to horizonizal mode again.
3. None of my videos will play on the unit and I cannot even get the videos on YouTube to play. I have tried various formats of videos and several video players and nothing works.
Does anyone have similar problems and do you have any ideas of how to fix these issues ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

[Q] Collection Not Found

Having issues with my Q. I've left it stock up until this point and a month or so ago I started getting a message from within the app stating "Collection Not Found." There's an option to search the network for the collection which, when tried, immediatly throws the message "Collection has been found on your network" but returning to the previous screen shows the same "Collection Not Found" message as before.
I had debug mode turned on at the time and but tried a factory reset which didn't help and now debugging mode is turned off. I've seen mention of a slider switch on the device that might enable debug mode but I don't see one on mine anywhere so that's probably not an option.
I even resorted to calling Google for support but they told me 1. they don't have any support information for the Q and 2. that since I purchased this Q via ebay from an I/O attendee, there's nothing they could do about a refund/exchange. Thought this was pretty ****ty but I can understand not training support personel on a device that was never officially released.
Any ideas on how to get this fixed are welcome. I'm probably going to install CM on it now if I can get it working again. Thanks.

[Q] Yotafit not registering steps

Upgrade to lollipop seemed to work fine. As part of this, we now have the yotafit app and EPD widget. However, mine refuses to register any steps whatsoever when I move. I have tried the various priority and mode options but nothing seems to work. Location services are on. Does anyone else experience this?
OK - seems to work now after I tried to fix something else. I was receiving the message 'NO SERVICE' on my lock screen even though I was connected. Some searching prompted me to try to fix this by turning airplane mode on and off. This did fix the NO SERVICE problem, but it also seems to have fixed the yotafit issue. Maybe it was just a coincidence but at least it seems to work now and the steps are showing on the app and the EPD widget!

Phone won't mute anymore!

i all
I have a LG G watch R, i have had this around 10 months, its paired with my Nexus 5.
Over the past year there has been a few occasions where suddenly the "mute phone alerts and calls" option has suddenly stopped working! *Half way through the day all of a sudden id still get the message on my watch but my phone would make a noise too!
Usually i fixed this by uni stalling android wear, resetting the watch back to factory setting and re pairing them..this usually solved the issue until next time....however!
This time it happened again and no matter what i do it wont work! i have the option to mute phone call and alerts but the phone still makes a noise and is not muted! when i toggle the volume bar it used to say before "muted by android wear" but now it does not.
My phone was updated to android 6.0 last week but for the past week its been fine so i doubt it related to that as like i said its done this before on lollipop.
Few more things to note that may be related, if i swipe down in my notifications box it used to say "android wear connected" but thats no longer there, and if i go into the watch and go into settings and bluetooth devices it does not say anything it just says scanning for nearby devices, and i notced once it said nexus 5 disconcerted??
I must stress that i am connected to my phone as all my notifications come through on my watch fine.
Anyone had this or know a fix?
Thanks

Did you find a solution?
Same problem here. I have moto x play (no developer edition) unlocked bootloader/rooted/lollipop 5.1 and LG G watch R.
In my case it seems related to Moto Display (Motorola'app similar to ambient display). If I disable it, mute comes back.
I tried to uninstall android wear app, and then installing 1.3 version. No fix.
On reddit I read that it should be the last update of Google play service instead: user restored his phone fixing the problem. I tried to uninstall play service (no factory reset)...no fix
EDIT: Ok I have just found a middle-solution. I downloaded a module for Xposed (True silent Mode), after activation you will not able to receive any vibrations or sounds on your phone, but you'll receive a vibration on your watch instead. It's similar to android wear function, the difference is if you disconnect your watch you have to disable the silent mode on your phone manually. Hoping Google (or Motorola in my case) fixes it soon in the meantime...
Looks like we are not alone: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topicsearchin/android-wear/mute

I see other reports and see the issue myself where android wear often says that the watch isn't connected anymore while the watch says it is. And voice commands etc. on the watch still works (I guess they go directly through GMS not involving the android wear app itself).
Maybe there is a bug between android wear and the detection of the connected watch that keeps thinking android wear that no watch is connected and then not muting the notifications on the phone.
Do you have the cloud sync enabled? It's in "privacy & personal data". I have.
Hi still have the same issue, and yes my watch thinks it's not connected also
I have tried both cloud synced and un synced
Try putting your watch on charge, then taking it off
It worked for me, you will notice when on charge the ph is connected but notifications are not muted
I think the ph must think the watch is charging...
The latest wear app version fixed it for me.

From Alcatel Idol 3 (6.0.1) to Axon 7 (7.1.1) - Notification problems

Hi Folks,
I try to keep my remarks / questions as brief/straight as possible.
Some days ago a huge German electronic-chain called Media Markt offered the Axon 7 for only 229€, for only a couple of hours. I could not resist although I was very satisfied with my Alcatel Idol 3 (4.7) with Android MM.
Now I installed the exact same Apps that I have been using on my Alcatel on the Axon 7 (Android 7.1.1, B04). I do not have the problems that some are mentioning on various fora like connectivity issues (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cell). My settings are Wi-Fi (always on), Cell on (but not data on so far, not in the need to do it), GPS sometimes on, Bluetooth sometimes on, Display very low, no automatic.
I have some weird notification issues with various apps installed by myself and strange behaviour with system apps.
Wherever it was possible, I've chosen the same settings (Energy, Apps) as with my Alcatel on Android 6.0.1.
But, I rarely get notifications (for example AquaMail, WhatsApp, eBay, etc.) or, I hear the notification sound (when my phone was on stand-by) but the symbols are not shown in the status bar, notifications bar?!?!?
Another strange behaviour is that of my podcast app, called Podcast Addict:
I listen to a downloaded audio podcast, pause the playback, for example to get a coffee in the meantime, go back to my phone, unlock the screensaver and the pause symbol that was shown in the notification, status bar on the device before I left the phone, is not there any more!?!?! I have to open the app again to continue listening to the audio file. The exact same applies for the stock music player.
Or, for example I receive a notification for an incoming WhatsApp message, shown on the notification bar, I do not open WhatsApp, the notification symbol should/is still visible, but after the screensaver has been activated (set it to 1 minute) and I have to reactivate the phone (be it by fingerprint or by pattern), the symbol is no longer there.
Another strange thing. The phone was in stand-by, I heard a notification sound, activated the phone, there was no notification symbol on the bar. I knew what App it was, so I opened it and yes, there has been something going on (the App is called Quizduell).
All these bugs (?), problems have never occurred running the Alcatel smartphone.
This is pretty annoying.
I already switched off the phone, wiped data cache, without success.
Maybe some of you can help me out, give me advice on where to look for the problems to be solved.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Cheers Christian
Change the power policy of each app to off which u use mostly in power manager in settings.... It will most certainly help you out..
@germanyandroid Do what the other guy said, that's really impoetant. Also what system are you on? A2017G B02?
I don't know what the Axons are shipping with right now. Be sure to update at least manually to 1.2.0 B02 (that's Nougat), to rule out any system problems. Welcome to ZTE's horrible OTA system...
Hi! Thanks so far for your help. Most notifications are now coming in without changes to the Battery Optimization settings. There is something wrong with these settings, which I will report in a separate thread.
Again, thanks for your help thus far.
