I have a TA-1000 modded to a TA-1003, after I finished the pie update I realised my WhatsApp messages were only coming through when I manually opened the app. I've reset notification, ensured background data is enabled, checked everything that could be affecting it but nothing works. Sometimes it pops up bit most times it doesn't.
Anyone else having this problem? If so any suggestions?
On a side note, I did have problems with the update to pie. Bootloop, then no command screen, not sure if this could cause any issues

Hi all I have a small issue. Since after I upgraded to lollipop I am experiencing an issue with the device locking.
Every time i pull down the notification bar from top in 10 seconds my phone gets locked. I will be reading my notifications and it will just lock, I cant keep it open for more than 10 secs.
This started happening after the update. The autolock is set for 2 mins so that's not the problem.
Please if anyone can help let me know and if anyone else experiencing this issue?
(Still havent tried reloading the new OS will do that if no other solution works)
Thanks
Did you factory reset the device yet? Try that, should work.

Thanks will give it a try and let you know.
So I figured out the issue. I did a factory reset and installed all the apps I had again and came to notice this happens when I install Nova Launcher and Tesla Unread app. Hopefully an update on these apps will resolve the issue.
HI Everyone
I've been having problems with the device within a few hours of getting it. I should have returned it to the store within the first 30 days but due to having all my apps installed and suspecting it was a software issue that would be resolved in a software update, I persisted with it.
The symptoms are that the device randomly locks up and is completely unresponsive and can't be unlocked. The only thing to do is press all four buttons and reboot it. When it locks up, the AOD is visible but the time has stopped. When I call the S7 from another handset, it does nothing and on the other handset I get a network message saying that I'm not available. Sometimes it seems to snap out of after 10 minutes, and other times I can leave it for hours and it doesn't change until I force it to reboot.
I've tried a factory reset and not installing any apps at all, everything stock except adding my Google account and connecting it to Wifi. No customisation, I've not changed the wallpaper, ringtones, nothing. But the issue persists.
Its been back to the store for a signal test due the issue being logged incorrectly as a signal issue. It passed the signal test and has had the latest firmware installed but the problem happened again today. I left the device for over an hour whilst I driving and then forced it to restart.
Has anyone else experienced a similar issue?
This is a problem I didn't notice right away. I attribute it to the QF2 update because wife also has an S7 and experiences exactly the same issue.
In a matter of hours after reboot the internal sensors stop working or behave erratically. Sometimes the phone would go to the lowest brightness, the screen will not turn off by the proximity sensors during a conversation. Functions relying on shaking the phone stop working. Some (but for some reason not all) apps don't switch to the landscape mode. I downloaded several sensor testing apps and they confirmed my suspicions. After the reboot everything works, but several hours later sensors start showing random values or "no data".
Does anyone else have the same problem? With two affected phones in my possession it can't be a random fluke.
The phones are not rooted.
I had an issue where the phone no longer responded to "OK Google". Turns out I uninstalled all the updates to the "Google" app and reinstalled them from Google Play and that fixed it. I wasn't sure if it was the OTA for the phone or something else, but the OTA might have jacked something up somewhere. Have you cleared cache and such to see if that fixes it? Otherwise, I'm having no issues with the sensors not working.
Thanks for your suggestion. My phones are set for manual updates. I updated everything and rebooted. The sensors worked fo about 12 hours and stopped. Which cache you recommend to purge? Google app?
Hello,
something weird is happening here. It has been a few days that every time I run the play store, it immediately crashes. I tried every solution I have found online to fix the play store, but had no luck. In particular, if I delete data, cache and updates, sometimes I can get it to work, but only for few minutes.
What is really weird is that also WhatsApp started to crash about the same day, but only when I open certain specific chats (i.e., I can access the app and chat with some people but not others). They may be unrelated, but it looks funny.
Everything else works perfectly as usual. I'm running stock oreo, rooted, with adaway and substratum. Tried to disable both as they may interfere, but the problem persists. Any idea?
EDIT: disabling the whole substratum theme seems to solve the problem. Only disabling the overlay of the single apps as usual is not enough.
EDIT2: after clearing all the overlays and having rebuilt them, everything works. I guess just updating every time can mess up something. Better clean everything and rebuild every now and then.
I have the EXACT same symptoms. I had restored/reset everything for the last two weeks. Initially it worked until the reset. While WhatsApp & Play Store appear fine, Substratum will no longer connect to Andromeda. I've uninstall/reinstall, rebooted, latest APK for Substratum but nothing works - Substratum will no longer start. Always the same - 'verification has failed; force close sub or reinstall addon'. Tried everything I could google and nothing works.
No pirated apps, in US (no vpn), debugging ticked (andromeda), USB debugging enabled (S8), ADB enabled, Andromeda.bat enabled, android driver current.
Any new ideas?
Hi folks,
I let my phone (6T, international version, completely stock never rooted), update to Android 11 this morning.
One thing is bugging me so far: at random times, I'll get brief flashes of some other window popping up momentarily (too fast for me to see what it is), and then it goes away. But it throws games into pause mode and takes me out of the flow.
What's causing this and how do I turn it off?
Welll this is not a normal behavior, so noone know why and how. Seems android 11 is not yet stable for us. I rolled back to android 10 on my 6T mclaren
Progress update: this problem seems to have resolved itself. I think it may have had to do with each app gradually settling in. A few reboots and some hours later the phone seems stable, though I'm having a few smaller issues like my phone icon left my home screen, I've now got TWO "Contacts" apps, and other minor stuff.
More update... the popups are back. I think they happen frequently after a reboot then settle down over time. I will keep an eye on it and report back anything I find in case it helps others.
Partial solution: I filmed what was going on in slow motion and despite my hand being in the way I saw the popup said "Gallery kee" presumably "Gallery Keeps Closing" or something like that. I don't use the Gallery app so I disabled it in Settings\Apps. Let's see if the problem keeps up. Maybe other apps are also contributing, and I'll have to address them one by one.
After a full day and another reboot for unrelated reasons, I can confirm that disabling the Gallery app fixed the problem. Not a single popup since I disabled it. Since I never use Gallery, only Google Photos, for me it's no loss. Probably a cache wipe would have sufficed as well. I did a a full cache wipe today to address a Gmail issue, and at some point I'll re-enable Gallery and see if the problem recurs despite the cache wipe.
