Setting up issues - Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 Questions & Answers

Hi,
The setting up is acting weird, play store was not opening and not updating anything. We disabled it and restored it with the factory version. After enabling it, the icon went missing but we can open it via google search. Now it updates apps sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. How to fix this and get the icon back?
Why is the lockscreen giving this Emergency message? The image is cropped, both sims are working fine. We have set one sim to 4g and the other one to 2g to save battery.

Bump.........

do a factory reset and do the setup again

Problem with updating the weather

I'm having problem with the TouchFlo 3D Weather tab in stock rom:
after a day or two of use, the weather won't update anymore,I usually update manually everyday
it just keeps saying "Updating..." forever and doesn't connect to internet (it doesn't turn on the data connection ) and I "turn on" data connection manually and same it just keeps showing "updating"
and the ONLY solution I've found is to perform a soft reset.
After soft reset, there is no problem for updating but after one or two days this happened again and need soft resetting which is really frustrating to soft reset day after day.
I'm using edge/gprs connection and all other internet applications (youtube,opera etc.. are working fine all times.
hope there is a fix for this weather bug ..thanks
Any fix will be highly appreciated
Do you have more than one location set? I often find My Location takes ages, or fails to update - meanwhile two other locations I've selected update immediately.
With My Location, it does just seem to take a while - if I hit Update Now it will usually update eventually. The other locations update without any problem.
Hope this helps.
werdna72, thank you.. I have three locations and the problem in all locations
When i click on "update now" on weather tab ,it doesn't turn on the data connection and keep showing updating forever and I "turn on" data connection manually and same it just keeps showing "updating"
All other internet applications are working ok
If I soft reset my device, weather update for 1-2 days then the same problem come back
any fix please

[Solved] 3G/Edge Gone

Started happening the other day. I was using WiFi and didn't notice that my 3G/Edge icons had disappeared. Last night I turned of WiFi at home and noticed the problem because I didn't have any data connection.
Tried everything beyond a factory reset. Did some trouble shooting with Tmobile (including a reset on their side) and next step is to do the reset.
Only thing that I can think of effecting the phone recently was installing a battery saver app (battery fu from the market) that supposedly controls data access to save energy. I uninstalled it and did a recent but the data problem still exists.
Anyone experience this problem or have other suggestions how to troubleshoot? Outside of my 30 days. Stock phone.

If it's the same thing that happens to me a couple times a day, this is the fix:
Go to settings -> wireless and network ->mobile networks -> access point names. Push menu button and choose reset to default.
For some reason, after the standard epc.tmboile.com it adds wpn-disabled or something to that effect in the APN.

Thanks for your tip. That was exactly the problem, but in my case it had something along the lines of batteryfu disabled. After switching back to internet + mms, everything is back to normal.
What a crappy application batteryfu is when it doesn't clean-up after itself. I'm going back and giving the app a very negative review.
This happened to me. I went to Go to settings -> wireless and network ->mobile networks -> access point names and under T-Mobile US there was "epc.tmobile.com[disbaled].
I clicked it though, and all the way down, I clicked APN type.
I selected Internet+MMS and my 3G icon came back.
Everything was working.
I still had the [disabled] in brackets... so I did the "Reset to Default" and it changed back to normal.
Been searching this ALL DAY today... and fixed it. I finally found this thread. Too late... but good to know.

When you turn it off are you using the status bar toggle or system settings?
I used the notification bar toggle but i check in settings and its disabeled but still consuming my mobile data plan. I also try to disable it directly on settings but no change are made

Can't disable mobile data
Has anyone else solved this problem of not being able to turn off mobile data? I have turned off mobile data in settings, wiped the cache partition, turned off background data on every app, turned off the automatic smart switch, tried it in safe mode and mobile data is still on. 4G symbol is greyed out in notification bar, but data is still on. Only thing that turns it off is airplane mode, which is not good as I cannot receive calls. I have read that someone with the same ptoblem did a factory reset and it was not the solution. My phone is a not rooted Note 3 running 5.0 lollipop with no updates available. I also tried SIM cards from 2 different providers and problem persists.
I have the same problem too

I used to have the same problem until I installed another ROM in my phone, in this case, PHRONESIS.
I never found how to solve it.

LG G2 crashes and reboots when data or wifi is on

Hello, today my LG G2 D800 began to act strangely.
When Data or Wifi is turned on, it crashes and gets stuck in a boot loop indefinitely.
When data or wifi is turned off, everything works fine.
I do not know what would cause this problem. I booted to safe mode to see if it's an installed application, but it still crashes when data is turned on.
I did not drop the phone or have any other physical damage.
I am running 4.4.2.
Any help is appreciated. I googled about this problem, and nothing similar comes up.
I suddenly encountered this issue today after recording a voice memo.
Straight after accepting it, my phone started into a reboot loop. I spent a couple of hours trying to figure it out, even tried to get into the recovery mode without success.
It wasn't until I started turning things off, wifi data sync etc that the phone started operating again.
One by one i turned them back on again and it turns out that it was the auto sync causing the reboot.
Currently it's off and I'm writing this on it, but I would like to turn it back on again.
Any ideas?
I have same issue. Just started today. As soon as phone starts to auto synch it reboots. Switching off wifi or data links stopped this until I could disable auto synch in settings. I think its something to do with the new Google update. This really sucks!!!
Same happens to me also i am running a 442g on lg g2 d802 since yesterday evening bam autosync got screwed
Wow, I disabled autosync, and then turned on data and it's fine.
Thanks for recognizing this. Who would have thought that it could be that?
Now that we have recognized the problem, how do we resolve it?
Clearing all data of the Google App resolves the boot loop issue.

It looks like clearing all data of the Google App seems to resolve the boot loop issue.
However, what looks like a sync icon is constantly on, the battery seems to run out faster and the phone is warmer.
In the Settings go to Apps
Find and select Google App in one of the columns
Select Manage space then Clear all data
Enable sync, connect to the internet and check if this resolves the issue
Delete and return google account to resolve on-going sync issue
As described by user webfrank in a post titled "g2 d802 reboots when sync enabled" at Android Central (as a new user I cannot post links) in order to resolve the on-going sync issue perform the following steps:
Delete Google account
Clear data from the Google App, Google Play services, and Google services Framework
Reboot device
Reconfigure the Google account
Hmm, is there no other way to resolve this problem?
Why do I need to delete my google account and readd my google account?
What do I do if I have multiple google accounts added? Do I need to remove them all?

I found that clearing data from various Google apps was not enough to resolve the continuous sync issue, while disconnecting the phone from the Google account is not such a big nuisance.

Help S7Edge Nougat - Two finger scroll/tap (talkback off) won't go away

Hi together,
just was able to update to upgrade to Nougat. (O2 Germany)
I just have one big problem. I have to control the screen like Talkback is activated. But it isn't. (two finger scroll, tap and so on)
Does anybody have an idea how I get rid of that really annoying thing? If possible without factory reset. My Phone isnt rooted.
My Google and forum search hasn't helped me. The answers were always turn off Talkback, which it is already.

I had the same problem yesterday after the update, took some time to change back to normal behavior: restarted in safe mode, changed the resolution back to WQHD, changed some accessibility settings, like turning it on for Nova Launcher and turn off optical reader (I don't know why it was turned on...). After that I restarted to normal and seemed to work ok but then I turned on the accessibility feature optical reader again, too see what it does and the screen was only with 2 finger operable again, so I turned it off.
You can disable/remove Talkback in the application settings. Try in safe mode if it's not possible in normal mode. I tried to change the Talkback settings in the system settings (searched for Talkback) and it said in a pop-up that it isn't compatible with the system, so I removed it completely.
Thank you so much norti!!!!!!!!! Had the same issue with S7 (T-Mobile USA), and your advice helped!!! Actually, it was the only one I could find so far
Thank you Norti
Thank you so much. I had the same problem after performing the software update over night last night. I was so frustrated with it and the techs at the sprint store spent an hour with my phone and could not fix it. The techs recommended that I back up all my contacts and everything and then do a factory reset. I did not want to do a factory reset and searched the internet for a long time before coming across your post. I turned off optical reader and it fixed the two finger problem. Thank you so much for sharing this as I would have been lost without it.
Exactly the same happened with my S7 edge, almost drove me crazy before I figured out that it was Optical reader in accessibility that caused the problem.
That worked
Thank you for the correct fix post. Optical Reader off did it for me, too. Spent all morning wading through "Cool features of Nougat" and getting ready to break my S7 while calls were coming in...

I figured that it had to be the optical reader as that was one of the incompatible apps it reinstalled after the upgrade. Had to use two fingers to get through most menu-options, frustrating, to manage to disable it. Glad to see I wasn't the only ripping my Hair out experiencing this issue. Hope they fix it.
For future reference (in German):
This works:
Einstellungen > Eingabehilfe > "Text & Bildscanner": turn off ("Aus")
