Oral B Bluetooth Issues - LG G6 Questions and Answers

I just bought one of the Oral B 8000 toothbrushes and apparently there is an issue in Android 7.0 which won't allow the toothbrush to pair over bluetooth with the phone app. I was curious if anyone else had come across this issue and gotten it resolved. The issue is known to Oral B but right now the only fix is to upgrade to Android 7.1 and I would like to stay on stock firmware because it's nice and stable. I am rooted and bootloader unlocked so if absolutely necessary I can change roms but I was hoping someone might know of a fix. Was also curious if the latest phone update might have fixed it even though it didn't change the Android version number.

it syncs with bluetooth and your phone camera to see what stops you are missing and over brushing. even without all that functionality and just as a dumb toothbrush it really is worth it

Same problem with LG G5 with 7.0. Did you find any solution?

Oral-B not starting on rooted devices
Hi,
Has anyone managed to use the Oral-B app on a rooted android? I am on Oreo with Xposed, and despite adding the app to Rootcloak config, it will detect the root.
I've read on the app comments that uninstalling supersu makes the app work, so it may be that Rootcloak default config is missing some keywords/commands?

Yes, it's working for me now. I have actually two solutions.
- I moved from superSU to Magisk. I still don't pass SafetyNet as I'm using gravity box. Now I'm with Oral-B app 6.0.1 and it starts and works correctly.
- at some point, while still with superSU, I downgraded the app with an apk of a previous version found online. The v5.2.3 doesn't seem to have SafetyNet implemented and it has the same features anyway. Remember to disable "auto update" in Google play to remain on that version.

honor 6 plus new official lollipop beta rom

Hi this is my first post i thought it would be helpful to share link of the new lollipop beta rom as it was hard to find it for me and hop it could be used from developers to make more custom roms as i cant find for honor 6 plus
Link:https: //mega.nz/#!YA81wDKY!6-kM4hGE_6NlUkIhLn3xUcc6_P8CP6GmmBk8-O3geZA
just remove space after https:
The update is 1.05 GB in size and carries the version number B305 .
In the beta firmware is a OTA update.zip, ie it must be installed on the Local Update. For this purpose, it packs the update.zip in DLOAD folder on your external SD card and run the task manually.
To install prerequisite to the update, the firmware version B147, the OTA already been distributed a few days ago. An update from other versions is currently not possible. For all those who did not receive B147
copied from honornews.de
Hello, Did anyone install it?
Did they remove features like "Double tap to Wake"?
Can someone post review?
on my phone, dt2w is gone at the moment, also a factory reset and a reflash didn't help. but on other h6+ dt2w is not gone. so, it seems huawei didn't remove it really. seems to be the risk of flashing a beta. you can just try it, but it could be away after a flash... or not... only god knows

native VoIP SIP client
Honor has also removed the native VoIP SIP client for internet calls in the dialler app, which did not really work under Kitkat because of no sound.
The SIP client just isn't in Lollipop anymore I think, I observed the same with various phones/manufacturers.
OT: I'm currently using it in my 6+ with KK. What do you mean by "no sound"?

No sound means you hear nothing from the other party. They do not hear you, too. This happened only with the built in dialler app of emui. If you use 3rd party app like sipdroid, it works with audio.
What firmware were you on on KitKat with working VoIP?

I'm on the latest chinese version, I think, B243.
And using stock dialer. There is a certain delay between you talking and the other party hearing you, maybe a second or so, but it basically works well enough.

@NeidRider: Cannot find this B243 for the PE-TL10. Could you post a link for it?
@ blechdepp: bittschen
http://www.emui.com/plugin.php?id=hwdownload&mod=detail&mid=125
good luck for your downgrade maybe you tell us how it worked
Do not think that the chinese FW B243 will work with my european model even if it would be on Kitkat. Tried that kind of experiment already with another H6+ which ended with a softbrick. My provider three.co.uk luckily exchanged it. I do not recommend flashing in between because of different partition structures.
Notice!
Beta FW for Lollipop B305 causes high battery drain.
Double Tap to Wake is gone after a facotory reset.
Connection to hisuite is not possible after upgrading
security lockscreen is activating automatically while doing a longer phone call. That´s awkward if you want to end call or activate loudspeaker during the call.
Huawai, there´s still very much work for you!!!
Is there any unofficial recovery available ?
why double posting?
no, nothing available. so far no root.
or do you know something we do not know?
i confirm missing option for dt2w (but still active), and no choice to add button to hide navbar

Samsung FM radio app

I downloaded the Samsung FM radio app from APK Mirror and tried installing it on my unrooted S7 Edge (SM-G935U). It wouldn't install -- phone showed "The package name conflicts with an existing package by the same name." Huh, I am 100% certain no such app is installed. I tried it again with logcat running. The error there is more informative:
Code:
AASATokenParser: Violate security policy of MSTG. Package(com.sec.android.app.fm) is blocked.
Unfortunately, Google seems to know precious little about the above. Searching for "aasatokenparser" returned nothing useful. Hits on "mstg" mostly pointed to something called a "mobile security testing guide."
AASATokenParser might be from AASAservice, which is commonly removed by debloat scripts. I don't want to root this phone though. Any other options for bypassing this security check or whatever it is?
Fixed it. Found this thread about installing S8 packages with reports of the same error I was seeing. Tried the suggestion of togging the secure startup setting followed by a reboot. That worked -- radio app installed and is behaving normally.
Very odd...
woah wacky so it actually works!
is this a snapdragon model? I like nextradio but stock always does it better
I tried cloning samsung radio.apk.... the damn thing would crash every time. even in force keep open/prevent crash mode.it only worked... when I used next radio... couldn't actually use the interface.
how did you get it to work exactly? the "remove lockscreen, add shortcut and install right away" trick didn't work

The link I posted before points to yet another link that had the actual steps I followed, post #24:
Go to Settings > Lock screen and security > Secure startup. Whatever Secure Startup is set to, toggle it (i.e. turn it on if it's off and turn it off if it's on), then reboot.

yeah I did all those things and I wouldn't even think it would work cause the package is locked in the software...
OH MY GOD... IT WORKS, IT ACTUALLY WORKS! I can't believe such a simple work around WITHOUT ROOT does the trick! even on the S7 active with the latest security patch (dec 2017) still works!
the galaxy A series samsung fm radio app... works just fine on the galaxy s series phones!.. its much louder then regular music (like nextradio) but I think that's to do with samsung making it quiet. I like nextradio for what they did but this interface works MUCH better and faster. strange I'm running dark theme on my samsung phone and this is the only stock app not effected by it- likely cause of how its installed.
thank you so much for reposting this... I wonder if it works for every phone... NOW I want to go back to the galaxy A5 2017 (enxyos 7880 has it in) 520W canada version and try this trick to see if it works on that unit... since canada carriers/samsung blocked the fm radio on the canada release.
I wonder if this works for all recent samsung phones?
AASATokenParser might be from AASAservice, which is commonly removed by debloat scripts. I don't want to root this phone though. Any other options for bypassing this security check or whatever it is?
perhaps package disabler pro could remove this out? I just figured out how to work that- you gotta install an extra it to get it running properly it that runs without root.
unrelated...I'm trying eng root method again... it kinda sucks. I love these custom roms but eng boot sucks some battery- its not a real way to root at all, at least it doesn't trip knox and can be reset to stock without major issues
can someone try this with Enxyos S7?

I've been convinced by the arguments /u/neromancr has floated in various Reddit threads (example) to avoid package disablers.
I've tried to install it on my exynos phone and although I have been able to install it, the screen is always white and a few seconds after open it, the app always crash.
Thank you anyway.

Ah. Not sure how to advise you, as I've had only Nougat on this device. Perhaps you'll need to try an older version of the radio app? APKMirror lists several.

Pie update available as of today (18 Jan 2019)

Got the Pie update notice today along with January security patch. My question is for those who, like me, waited until the official notification to update.
With so many here experiencing problems with the previous update(s), it's hard to distinguish which threads are for it, custom, or for the latest Xiaomi update. Did you update to Pie in January? Are there any issues you've noticed with the update? Should I pull the trigger on the update or wait?
Any info is appreciated, as always.
Regards,
KB
I just directly installed January update, migrated from Oreo. Didn't face any issues as of yet.
By the way how do you guys turn on FM Radio?
No data since update.
I did the update earlier today and haven't been able to get mobile data since. Can anybody help me?

I understand. I've not experienced many of the issues some have with the updates, though the battery issues a few updates ago were driving me crazy. Those seem to be resolved now and I can easily get 2 to 3 days out of a charge. The only reason I hesitated was I read some of the threads from the initial update Xiaomi put out, and was trying to be sure this one was less troublesome before allowing it. I saw a couple of folks complain about the loss of WiFi and Data on the first update, so perhaps all of the initial bugs haven't been squashed. I'm in Thailand, so need it to be as clean as possible.
Again, hope you get the issue resolved. Let us know if you do.
I am from Czech Republic and I can say I don't have any LTE issues, battery is great. No issues with Pie at all.

If you are a big fan of gcam.. Then dont update, else do it.
For me everything is working fine, except gcam focus issue.
Stock camera works though.

Well it works for me. Just unlock the bootloader, put the phone in fastboot mode, boot twrp cosmicdans from adb, flash magisk and when it boots open magisk and download camera patch for pie. It's really easy but i think when you unlock the bootloader you lose your data so think about it.

Try the last page here, changing the IPv4/IPv6 setting, it fixed it for others who had a problem.

I have also lost my data connection since the update.
Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this problem?
EDIT : It seems that the update deleted the apn configuration. Re-entering it solved the issue.
Based on the positive responses I went ahead and did the update since my A1 is stock. So far so good with no issues I've noticed. Both data and wifi seem to be working properly.
Thanks for the responses!
After updating to pie many of the users including myself face an issue where the mic volume has reduced a lot. Other people can't hear me properly on normal voice calls

Thank you for confirming that,
After rooting, and installing the magisk patch, can I completely unroot and lock the bootloader, and will the patch still work?
Will unlocking the bootloader also wipe data?
(i thought only locking bootloader will wipe, we can use the vol button trick)
Thanks in advance.

1. Unlocking bootloader wipes data
2. Does your phone contain nuclear weapon key? If no, then i don't see any reason you dont want a unlocked bootloader. (Manufacturer denying warranty for unlocked bootloader is thing of past, MI has no problem with it. Also you can lock phone just before giving it to MI store in any case)
3. As long as you install apps from playstore, i also dont see any problem with a rooted phone either.

That's why i wanted to unroot and keep the BL locked.

And will the patch work after unroot?

Everybody has installed it... It's been out for days
Went for it yesterday. With an "ultimate guide" here on forum. I was 9.0.17 rooted with twrp description problems. So I downloaded update (1.8Gb) from official One+ site. And did local update, and all the steps to keep root. After finally booting up I got message that Magisk Manager stopped working, but everything was fine. So cleared app temp memory, and settings (for Magisk only) and next boot everything was ok.
Nope... 100% stock, 9.0.17 is ROCK solid, g-pay, samsung pay work perfectly & there really isn't anything in 10 I can't live without yet. So, I
see no need to update for now.
I'm also not updating yet, at least until they fix the keyboard offset issue and other things I've read about.
Luckily you can just freeze the system update app with Titanium.

There is no keyboard offset issue and so therefore it's never getting fixed. Designs can change, but there isn't going to be a fix for something that isn't a problem.

Judging by all the people complaining about the empty space under the keyboard it does seems to be a problem, though.

There is a Magisk module to deal with that (immersive gestural Navigation for Android 10), and an adb command to change the size of the space. It's a deliberate thing from Google so they'll perhaps remove it later or no but staying with Pie just for that.....

It's not a bug, it's there for the swipe gesture, so that way you won't swipe the keypad when using gestures
Sent from my LG-G8 using Tapatalk
Question of the day. I've been waiting to do the A10 update for the issues it showed on the first days. I'm on a converted 6T from TMo, running 9.0.17. my major concern is the GPay thing I use it a lot. But researching here there's a way to make it work if I root the device. So can I update to 10.3.0 then root to get the GPay issue resolved with the Hide module on magisk? Or should I root on Pie then update?

This is pretty bad ux experience, and with the amount of complaints it seems and accidental keypress possibly when swiping is much better than losing all the text and keyboard closing with an accidental touch. At least give us the option to move it down, without having to go into ADB and setting an offset that then interferes with the way all apps render.

Liveview on Google Maps

Hi guys, I'm on Oneplus 8 pro with root but i'm unable to use liveview to calibrate my position on Google Maps.

Ok, I don't understand why but I don't have the option to use liveview. It's very useful to calibrate without moving a rotating the phone like a stupid in public.
Idk if it has to do with the fact that I have bootloader unlocked with root.
If anyone knows how to solve please help me!

If anyone knows how to solve please help me!

I'm afraid I have to correct mayself - it USED to work on my unlocked + rooted 8P but when I tried it just now I also didn't get that option.
I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with us having unlocked the bootloader + rooted the device ... but I do recall there having been 1 or 2 updates for Maps in the last few weeks and I'm guessing 1 of those removed that option, for whatever silly reason. It's Google after all and they don't need reasons to remove or cripple any app

And here's my stupid question: if I download an older version, could I have any chance that it works?

No idea, esp. since I don't know when exactly the option even disappeared.
I guess there's no harm in trying, just remember to disable Playstore updates for Maps once you find a version that has it again. Let me know if you get it working btw, now I'm curious myself

I have installed a march version but still nothing. They may have removed it server side, even if there are people who are currently using it. So I really don't know

I have the same problem. I remember the live view option working on OOS 11 , now, on the last version (12), nothing
I created a post on the official forum to know if it's my device fault, without answer: https://community.oneplus.com/thread?id=1143024798105337860
I remember something like this happened in the past with pixel devices, and was solved by google on a maps update, so... looks bad for us :S
edit: my Oneplus 8 pro is NOT rooted (never) and os version is 12.1 (c.33)
I'm rooted and with IN2023-11-C.33. Google maps with live view without any problems here (Europe)
