Hi guys,
not sure if this is a Google photos problem or a P8 lite problem....so trying it here:
We have two P8 lites running Android 6.0.1 and both of them can't set wallpapers from the photos app. I can select a photo, tap the three dots and choose the menu "Use as".
On both devices I get the error "No actions are available to complete your request" during the next step. On my Mediapad M3 you get the usual box presenting Gallery Wallpaper, Nova Wallpaper and so on, but on the two P8 lites this doesn't work.
It should look sth like this:

Checked permissions, reinstalled everything, cleared caches , but all to no avail. Any ideas what I can do to make this work?

I was so happy that OP finally released H2OS 2.5, this one is probably the best ROM with custom UI, unlike MIUI or Flyme, it is still in Material Language. However, after a clean flash, I found it is not pre-installed entire google service and it doesn't work well with OpenGapps. Here is the tutorial.
Before I start, make sure you have installed a custom recovery like TWRP. If not, go to twrp.me and flash the recovery via fastboot. And BTW, plz forgive my poor English, if there are any mistakes, leave the comments blow, Thank you!
1. Install H2OS 2.5(I believe you already did this) and Root package.
2. After the setup, reboot to Recovery, choose Mount - System. then flash OpenGapps, in this step, I suggest you guys choose Nano version, mini version will replace the stock calendar with Google Calendar and other variants of Gapps will replace more stock apps.
3. Go to Advanced - File Manager, delete /system/priv-app/SetupWizard/setupwizard.apk
DO THIS NO MATTER YOU CAN ACCESS GOOGLE OR NOT, OTHERWISE YOU WILL NOT ENTER LAUNCHER!
4. After the reboot, Install and Open Titanium Backup, Tap Backup/Restore and you will find several Google-related apps are frozen, tap those and defrost them.
5. Convert Google Contacts Sync into user-app, after that go to Settings - Apps - Google Contacts Sync - Permissions, grant the permission on read contacts.
6. Reboot and Enjoy, don't forget use a proxy if you are in China!
----------------------------
To enable Screen Search (Google Now on Tap), go to Settings - Buttons - Home Button, Long Press Action - Search Assistant.
If your phone still can't work somehow, try following steps.
1. Install and Open Nova Launcher, long press screen - Widgets - Activities. Then choose Settings - Assist & Voice input
2. Open this shortcut, tap Assist app and choose None, after that tap Assist app again and switch back to Google app.
OP made their own Default App selection interface, so you can't go to Settings - Apps - Gear Icon - Default apps to select correct search assistant. That's why we need Nova Launcher to open this interface.
Screen Search should work then.
I already installed it using the Google Installer APK, so this method is of no use to me, but I sincerely hope it benefits several others.
Wow, you really seem to know your way around H2OS.
Could you help me with a problem I've been facing? I installed Pixel Launcher, and there's a hideous blue portion of the wallpaper that I can't remove. I understand you need to switch to the OnePlus Launcher to modify the wallpaper, so I switched to the OnePlus Launcher, changed the wallpaper, but the blue portion still persists.

There are additional options when changing wallpapers in the h2os launcher. I don't think you can entirely get rid of the colour blending at the bottom but you can change the colour and the area it covers. The one exception I have found is the Google wallpapers app, that is full screen.
My notifications don't sync with my android wear. Do you maybe have a fix for this, since this is the only reason I can't use H2os
So I bought a used P9 Lite, and i tested it before with the guy that was selling it and it seemed to be OK. However, when i got home i did a factory reset on ti and stared configuring it.
Everything is working fine apart from the google account. I cant add my account no matter how I try:
- If I open Play Store, it closes suddenly and without any error.
- If I go to settings -> accounts -> add -> google, it gos back to the previos screen (Accounts)
- If I open gmail -> add -> google - nothing happens (but if I click exchange or other, i can add)
Note: If I disable internet connection playstore/gmail/etc doesn't close, but it shows the network error
Pls help me!

khajiit, tks for you assitance. Is there a way of doing that without voiding the warranty?
the firmware part I flashed it many times, but the other part it requires unlocked bootloader+root+twrp = waranty void
btw the latest fw I used is VNS-L31C432B161 but the phone shows VNS-L31C900B161 (c900 instead of C432)
You have to flash proper oeminfo (unlock your bootloader using the official method or dc-unlock) to add your google account, there is sadly no other solution.
cheers

Hello folks. I've a problem setting wallpapers since yesterday I've done some mess on My phone. All the time i hit "wallpaper" on System display settings i get the message "unfortunately, setting has stopped". I was wondering what i need to do for resolve this issue. I've installed / reinstalled some System apks like wallpaper cropper and sec wallpaper picker, so i think the problem depends from this. Unfortunately, i didnt have Any backup of those, and they neither appear to be installed. Any help Will appreciate, i really don't want to flash the stock rom. Thanks in advance.
Try wiping cache partition , sometimes it's the cache that causes system apps to stop
Nevermind, someone lent me another Samsung grand prime and now all is ok. Thank you very much.
Hi everybody,
I encounter a problem with the L31C432B380.
The problem is that I can't use the Huawei Home (v 6.3.47) correctly. I can't use the rotation. : (the launcher)
I previously delete the cache and data of the APK, but it didn't help anymore. I tried to save all my data and reset the phone completely but nothing after about this problem was resolved.
Do you have the same problem on this ROM ?
I would test another apk (previous version) but I can't save the actual apk.
Thanks a lot for your help.
(can't work, doesn't appear) Pinch a home screen using 2 fingers, and then tap Settings.
Turn on Auto-rotate.
Hello everyone!
I'm gonna explain the whole problem.
I have a Huawei P8 Lite / ALE-L21 non-modded, non-rooted phone, and it got infected by a virus. The virus shows as an app in the "My apps and games" section of Play Store, it is called "Preloaded Widget" and its author is Martin Wei. It shows nowhere else, got installed without my permission (of course) and can't be deleted (of course). It has location and internet permissions and when I click on "open" it opens the meteo app instead.
I've tried doing a factory reset but it's still there.
So I want to wipe the drive and flash a new system image using TWRP. The problem is, TWRP is only available for the 2017 version of P8 Lite (Prague)[/URL], and I've got the 2015 version. I'm dubious about using it, do you think I can use it all the same?
Thank y'all in advance!!
Simple answer,no you cant.Cheers!!!
You can't use the 2017 version. And the preloaded widget is the weather widget and not a virus.
