VERY Please - But few questions - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Very pleased with my silver ONE, but have a couple of questions/observations...
- Co-pilot does not appear to display all the menu items/graphics, was fine on my One X, have re-installed a couple of times..has anyone else had an issue?
- Battery Monitor Widget not showing ma values.. but presume there will be an update for this in due course
- 3 Menu Dots appear is numerous apps, read in another thread that there is nothing that can be done about this. Appears that the pre-release software had the option to remove these (Display. gestures & buttons) ... but production version does not.
- Shame we have lost a few widgets (music player sizes) etc , but can work around this
- Not sure about blink feed... I've gone back to the weather flip clock on my home page
Look forward to hearing other first observations

- No problems with that app
- This is since KitKat Google removed the permission BATTERY_STATS
- Should be fixed since a recent update
- You can extract these apps from your previous ROM and reinstall it
- Since 4.3 you can disable Blink Feed

Tray, power, and other misc questions

So I've been reading through here for quite awhile before release, and after release. Because I was out of town I only got my Developer Edition today. Got it rooted and loaded recovery with no issues (thanks to Hasoon2000!).
I am coming from a One X+ that was running the viper ROM and wanting to not load a custom ROM right away if I can avoid it.
So as I sit here and play with it I have a couple of questions:
1) It appears that I can't remove the stock camera and browser icons from the tray? Is the a MOD to allow this to be changed?
2) It appears that I can't select to keep the screen on when connected to power? This is a feature that I like to use when I am plugged into power, is it there somewhere else and I missed it?
3) Wasn't sure that I'd like blinkfeed but I've decided I do like it but don't like that there are only a few options (most of which I don't like) for what appears in blinkfeed. Not certain how this gets corrected but thought I'd mention it here.
I know there was a thread going for blinkfeed but I didn't see that anyone had figured out how to get more there yet but I could have missed it.
I did search on these and didn't see anything on 1 & 2 but if I missed it my apologies.
Thanks.

Thanks for the help.
On #2 the stay awake function isn't in the dev options on the developer edition unit it seems.

[APP][WIDGET] NotiCounter Widget v1.1 - 12 Feb - Bugfix - GEAR Exclusive

This app is exclusively written to be used as an widget on the NULL_ Rom @ the Samsung Gear!
This app includes two simple 1x1 widgets that shows the number of unread notifications on your Gear.
I also has the option to play custom sounds based on what application is sending the notification.
A great tutorial for using this widget is made by almulder1092 and available here!
Basics:
* Tap widget = Manual update or notifications app launch.
* Play sound upon recieved notification, either a default sound or custom sound per application.
* Trigger update upon ScreenOn and when the Stock notification app is launched
* Customized Text size
* Customized Text Color
* Customized background
* Shows a 0 or a blank spot upon 0 onread notifications
Widget 1 - Bold Text:
* Bold text
Widget 2 - Normal Text:
* Normal text
Permissions:
The app needs SU access since it chmods the badge.db where the unread notifications is listed. Haven´t found any other way around that yet.
Tip: Go into SuperSU and click on NotiCounter Widget and select to inactivate Notifications so you don´t need to see the splash screen every time the app requests SU rights.
It´s still an beta so please report bugs, have experienced some FC´s (should be solved with v0.3b) but overall it works fine.
Keep in mind to use only one widget at a time to keep away from trouble. If you want to change any settings, remove widget from home screen, change settings with app and then put the new widget on home screen.

Changelog:

0.2b
- Fixed the off centre issue
0.3b
- FC´s should be gone now!
- Added two new Widgets that don´t use the ScreenOn Intent and only updates on time basis (3 min/update) May not be useful since the FC´s now are solved anyways.
0.4b
- Settings added - Start app first and choose settings, then add your widget on Home Screen
- Sound can be played upon recieved notification, choose a custom file of choice. Works only if Screen On is choosen.
- Set update interval: Screen On or a custom time of choice.
- A total of 6 widgets, all with different layouts (See earlier in post). Settings applies on all widgets.
0.5b
- Bugfix: multiple instances of widget running in background wich made sound weird when enabled.
- Built in sound file added, just tick the "Play sound?" box and not choose any custom file and the built in file will be used instead.
0.6b
- Tap the widget and the Notification App opens! turn this feature on in settings. If box is unticked a tap updates the count as in prevoius versions.
0.7b
- SU rights requested from Settings app and with visuals telling when app is ready. Please remove widgets on home screen before update app. (Using an external library for SU request so I can´t do anything about the sometimes long waiting times during update)
- Added two Experimental widgets (Elipse and Round) wich both triggers their update when the badge.db file i written to. This means that the widget will update upon reading the incoming notifications aswell! Screen on settings and update time is not important in these widgets. Please try this and come back with feedback.
0.8b
- Since the last Experimental release didn´t work for anyone but me... Here´s another one with a total rethink about updating widget after notification reading. Please tick the ScreenOn box before adding the experimental widgets. Update as previous versions.
0.9b
- Some users have experienced problems with multiple services (ghost widgets) starting in the background when updating to null_ 17 (Have no clue why yet, seems quite random) As a sollution for this I´we added a setting that makes it possible to Lock a single widget. Use it like this: Enter settings and tick the "Lock one widget" box, choose the widget you plan to use in the menu to the right. Save and go back to the Home Screen and put the widget on there as usual. If a service tries to start it will automatically get destroyed. If you try to add another widget it will update the first time and then get destroyed (Still be visible on Home Screen but be "dead")
- Disabled the option to choose "Screen On" or update time since that might be a thing that´s causing the above issue, Screen On is default now.
0.10b
- The multiple service issue wasn´t null_ related. The services had one single line saying they would autostart at boot, wich mean that when we all upgraded to new rom and rebooted all services got autostarted, Plain silly! :silly: This is changed in this release. The "Lock widget" stays for a while just to be sure that this was the full problem.
0.11b
- HUGE UPDATE!
- Rebuilt GUI with Holo Theme to match null_ rom
- New Icon, Thanks fOmey for that!
- Sound on Gear vibrate mode only (If Gear is set to silent or sound, the widget sound won´t play)
- Experimenal widgets from 0.10b is now default
- ScreenOn is now default, time based update is removed, widget will NEVER update upon Screen Off.
- Custom sounds added."Edit List" shows a list off the custom apps you´we chosen."Add Apps" shows the list of notifications, tap an app name to set a sound for that application.
- A sound library with 11 files is attached, will be copied to /sdcard/NotiCounter upon first launch.
- I may have forgotten something aswell..
Note1 about Custom sound function:
Since Samsung doesn´t close their SQL db as they supposed to I have to do a major file operation before I can pull the name of the incoming notification. Thats why there´s a slight delay (aprox 2-3 sec) before the sound will play! Nothing I can do about that atm.
Note2: In order to add custom sounds for your apps, your gear will need to have a notification from the app already on the gear or the list will be empty. Thanks almulder1092 for the Feedback
0.12b
- Quick Fix release
- Bug that caused an error if no sound file was selected is fixed
- a Silent soundfile is copied to /system/media/audio/notifications upon first start off app and with a reminder to choose that file if you want sound enabled on the Gear. The reminder shows if you tick the "Use sound" box and have Sound choosen as option in Gear settings. A reboot is necessary to see the new file in Gear sound settings!
0.13b
- the Silent soundfile is copied to /sdcard/notifications instead. Wasn´t working well in /system/
- the old soundfile placed in /system/ is autoremoved when starting app for the first time.
- When no sound file is selected, the GUI will show the text "Default" instead of a blank.
- Most informative messageboxes only shows on the first start off the app.
- Added a Restore Settings button wich restores all saved data made by the app.
- Thanks to almulder1092 for the excellent test drive off this release!
1.0 - Stable
- First stable release!
- The Add App list is now showing the apps selected under Notifications in Gear Manager.
- Text size is configurable
- Text color is configurable, it´s set using the RGB colorpicker showed in the post above.
- Background now has 4 options, Elipse, Round, Transparent and custom, last option let´s you choose whatever image file you want!
- Show 0 or blank spot (at 0 unread notifications) at any background, not limited to Transparent no more.
- Added three power saving modes (Not that it´s a battery hog but it´s better to let the user decide how to update!)
- New custom built filemanager wich fits nicely on the Gear screen.
1.1 - Stable
- Fixed a bug that caused an FC if "Play Sound" was activated but no sound file was manually selected.
Download:
NotiCounter Widget v1.1
If you want an earlier release, all is listed here!)
Wishlist:
- Start Notification app when taping widget (Implemented)
- Notification update after message app check. (Implemented)
- Custom sound based on Notification content (Implemented)
- Custom Text size, color and background (Implemented)
Thanks

Love it.
But as you say. I get some info that it has stopped.
Is it me or is it a bit to high out of center?
Is it possible to make it bolder?
Tested some changing in the options but no luck.
Didn't try to restart between the changing.

I'll try to track the FC's, I'we found one that I'll try to solve: if you have one unread notification, goes to message app and reads it and then back to home screen and tries to update widget it freezes.
the good thing is that the app restarts right away after pressing OK.
I haven't put that much effort in fixing the off center issue, it's on the To do list.
What do you mean with options? What I know I haven't done any
Sweet. Nice work

which version of custom ROM is required? i installed it, put it on my desktop, gave root access, yet i see no counter at all.. and i do have unread notifications.
edit: it took a little bit longer, but it works now!

It´s developed using null_ 15 but since it´s based on stock files the custom rom version won´t make a difference.
You can always tap the widget to update manually.
Regarding FC´s tried the thing I explained earlier but no FC so I Assume I need help locating the reasons.
If someone experienced an FC and can explain how to recreate it I would be very happy, then I can attach log and see whats causing it.
Really nice. Useful if you're using nova launcher. Just a minor niggle - is centred too high. Always looks out of alignment with other widgets.
Nice one

Weird, the Main activity doesn´t do anything, just show the messagebox and then selfclose. The service itself should not be started unless you put the widget on the screen...
App Update!!
Update released:
v0.2b - small update that fixes the off centre issue
I think I have located the reason for the FC´s aswell, I´ll work on a sollution for that.
App Updated to v0.3b!
Some days are better than others!
Another update today, and now all FC´s should be gone!
Please update to v0.3b and report any issues.
Download link in first post.
Round ?
Hey Mate ,
Terrific work . Can you provide us also a round widget please.

So far so good, but your description is off.
I tried styles 1 and 3 expecting a "0" but those were the ones that showed up blank... either semi-transparent or fully transparent.
The other styles are the ones that actually show a 0 when the unread count is 0.
Maybe it's just me, but that's what I'm seeing on my device.

[SOLVED] How to get pre-Lollipop features back

And get rid of a few annoyances in the mean time?
EDIT: SOLUTION it cost me half a sunday if not more.
I have a stock Moto X 2013, Europe version. I was very happy with it, apart from a few minor annoyances. Untill I received the Lollipop update months ago.
Missing features or new annoyances since Lollipop:
Wake display by waiving your hand. This was in my opinion a killer feature.
SOLUTION: This website which presents a solution using TASKER. Untested
Shutdown menu - extremely annoying if you just want to reboot
Enable flight mode via Shutdown menu, since the menu is gone, you miss this option as well
Mute phone with 1 button, the volume down button. The alternative, selecting MUTE also disables screen or glow notifications. There is NO way to only mute sound/vibration a Moto X 2013 with Lollipop. You have a SMARTphone that cannot be muted like any other phone!
Bluetooth and mobile data toggles have been removed. OMG even Windows Phone 8 has it.
Lockscreen: swipe to right for camera. Gone.
White popup (general Lollipop annoyance): if you swipe it away, the notification is gone from the bar, you cannot read it/respond from the notification bar after swiping it away.
Minor but not dealbreaker features I would like to have: hide NFC and Bluetooth icon in the notification bar, be able to hide app icons and/or rearrange them in the app drawer.
What do I need to do to get all these features back? I want to stick to the stock experience as much as possible. Custom ROMs with tons of customisation features is not what I am waiting for. A custom ROM with near-stock experience and fixes for the issues mentioned above would be welcome.
But if it is possible to solve all of them with XPosed and/or Tasker, that would be fine. Unfortunately I searched these forums for 3 days now and I cannot find a dedicated Xposed topic with this info (there is 1 but it has little useful info). I hope others have a similar experience and found a solution!

This is a question, shouldn't it be in the Q&A?
1) This can be restored by flashing the 4.4.4 firmware
2) Xposed -> GravityBox (Power)
3) Xposed -> GravityBox (Power)
4) Tasker?
5) Xposed -> GravityBox (QuickSettings), or if you mess with the settings for either of those they may pop up in the quick toggles after some time
6) Xposed -> GravityBox (QuickSettings)
7) Xposed -> GravityBox (Notification Ticker)
Status bar icons can be hidden in GravityBox (Statusbar)
The drawer changing can be done with XGELs (Google Experience Launcher)
If this information helped you get it working, be sure to pay it forward by donating if you can
I am definitely going to unlock bootloader, root and install Xposed, see if I can get all of this back. Saves me the risk of potentially unstable ROMs and saving a lot of time testing different ROMs. Thanks a lot!
And yes, I believe projects like Xposed absolutely deserve a donation. I just finished flashing my own HTC One M7, it will also have Xposed (first time going to use it). The Motorola is owned by the lady. I will definitely donate if it works for me.
Wave-to-wake is present in some roms, for example the modded stock rom
There is also the lockscreen with the swipe for the camera.
In order to modify the power menu, you can use APM+.
For the toggles use Gravity Box.

Good to know, but why would I go to all the trouble to install that ROM (which would include wiping my phone) if I can reach all those goals with XPosed/GravityBox
I have stock Lollipop 5.1 European version about:
5 - bluetooth toggle exists, IIRC it only appears if you use it; mobile data toggle also exists, just need two clicks - one on mobile data tile and one on toggle
6 - don't know about secure screen options but if you don't use password/pin/other you can swipe left for camera and right for dialer
7 - you can swipe that popup up to just hide it and without dismissing or use one of this app to remove/modify them "Heads-up Notifications" "HeadsOff - TickerOn" even without root
I believe that the Nexus Experience rom (NX ROM) offers most, if not all of the features that you're looking for, and it offers a very stock experience. The only reason that I don't run it is because I've grown accustom to tapping gently on my phones shoulder when it's sitting on my desk to activate the Active Display to see what time it is or what notifications I've been ignoring. With NX ROM, Active Display works great, but it's not as sensitive. So I have to tip my phone up, or sideways, to about 15 degrees before Active Display activates with. A very minor issue, but I'm very picky.
As far as I remember, it has the hand wave feature, power off/reboot/airplane mode menu, all kinds of toggles, and I believe volume down to mute as well. It doesn't do swipe right for camera, but you can swipe from bottom right corner, or from bottom left (customizable) to activate the camera. Not sure about the white popup thing because I didn't use it that long.
Thanks for all the suggestions.
I am extremely annoyed by Google removing useful functionality, harming productivity and introducing new design which is clearly not meant for OLED screens (all white). But with all these suggestions I can hopefully stick with the Moto X for a long time, since no brand but Sony will bring us high end <5" phones.

Also have the European version, but I have a completely different experience. Swiping heads up notification always removes the notification from the statusbar (on all Lollipop phones, not just Motorola). On my HTC One M7 with GPE+ ROM I could lower the popup to 1sec allowing me to access the notification in the statusbar when needed. Works fine.
Another Lollipop bug (not even fixed in Android 6.0.1) is that the dialer shows ALL contacts of ALL your accounts (Google, Exchange, Outlook, Facebook, Skype etc) regardless if they have a phone number or not. The Contacts app does allow you to select specifically which contacts to show per group per account. In 4.4.4 this also applied to the dialer, since 5.0 it does not anymore. Google it and you will see people going nuts about this. A Google employee replying it will be "fixed" in M.. which is nuts since most phones with this issue will never receive an M upgrade.. also, now that M is available for Nexus, it's not fixed. The only solution: find a better dialer in Play Store.. this nums me completely... a phone OS should have at least a good dialer.. and apart from this issue the dialer works fine.
SOLVED
SOLVED:
Documentation + all links below in case anyone or myself ever need to do this again.
The most important part explained in detail:
- uninstall any phone drivers from other phones, uninstall Android SDK etc
- install Motorola USB drivers (Motorola Manager)
- install Minimal ADB & Fastboot in C:\adbfb and install mfastboot in that same folder, use mfastboot instead of fastboot. Scroll down in the Minimal topic to find the link to the Fastboot guide. It lists the command to flash recovery (TWRP): NOTE !!! unplug the phone from the PC right after flashing recovery and use the volume down button to scroll to Recovery in Bootloader, use VOLUME UP to select recovery after uplugging, not the shutdown button and do not reboot first (I used shutdown button and rebooted and spend 2 hours figuring this out)!
- copy all required files (the ROM plus its addons) to c:\adbfb.
- Flash using TWRP, first the ROM, then the addons, then factory reset via TWRP.
Short overall steps:
1. bootloader unlocked via the Motorola site (official method)
2. installed TWRP 2.8.6.0 (the newer one has an issue)
3. installed the modded/debloated stock ROM
4. also installed all the addons for that ROM, listed in that same first post.
5. After first boot and initial setup, Copied Xposed Installer, AdAway and installed them via Amaze File Manager (Play Store).
6. Installed the Xposed modules: GravityBox, Moto Checkbox, Sensify, BTAudio. Used GravityBox and Moto CheckBox to get most features back and personalise Quicksettings and some other great tweaks.
7. Used Sensify to install the HTC Sense Launcher (read the first post to install the correct version!!) which is basically stock launcher WITHOUT persistant Google Search Bar WITH ability to rearrange/group/hide apps in the app drawer and with black background, good for our OLED screen. No free launcher in the Play Store is as simple and plain as this one with these features (Nova Prime can do it but it costs €5 and adds a huge load of features I never need).
8. Wave-to-Wake is still not present in the debloated ROM but I will use the Tasker workaround. Haven't tested this yet.
9. To get the maximum out of your battery and have apps that are easier on the eyes, create a backup using TWRP and carefully follow the instructions of Team Blackout (Black Chrome, Black Calendar, Black Hangouts, Black Keep, Black Whatsapp etc). Haven't tested this yet.
10. Play Store > Settings: disable auto-update in Play Store, also disable the notification of updates.

[APP] Good Lock

Has anyone tried out the Good Lock App?
I red about it on Android Police (I'm not allowed to post links, so just google "Good Lock Android Police"), and it works flawlessly until the next reboot, it will uninstall itself. Because the app seems to be rather new, I didn't find a solution yet.
As far as I know from other reviews it works on the S7/S7 edge without any problems.
So yeah, anyone tried it, encountered the same problem, maybe found a solution?
Some screenshots of the app: (Imgur.com) /a/DaFWj
I tried on my s6 and it works fine like on the s7 but i didnt tried for long time though because i didnt like yet that much.

I red about it on Android Police (I'm not allowed to post links, so just google "Good Lock Android Police"), and it works flawlessly until the next reboot, it will uninstall itself. Because the app seems to be rather new, I didn't find a solution yet.
As far as I know from other reviews it works on the S7/S7 edge without any problems.
So yeah, anyone tried it, encountered the same problem, maybe found a solution?

There is another problem with this app. After recent screen was activated - home button can get unresponsible. You can get to home screen only from pressing it twice or more.

Can the blur not be turned on in settings? I definitely saw something about blur in the settings.

Notification problem

Hello, I installed the last Global ROM (11.3.3). I have a problem with notification: there's the same bug as all Xiaomi devices with notch: the notification doesn't appear near the clock.
Moreover, WhatsApp notification doesn't appear in the lockscreen (even if I selected to show the notifications in the app settings). This fact, anyway, does not show if I remove the lockscreen PIN.
There's a fix for these two problems?
I cant post screenshots as a new user..
Anyways, Settings/Display/Notch&Status Bar/ and hit the "enable icons" which is disabled.
Hope this helps.

Thank you! It restored the notification in the notification area. But I'd like also to know how to show the notifications in the lockscreen. The problem seems to be only with whatsapp, as Facebook's and Instagram's (for example) notifications are shown there.
I am trying but I can't find it right now.
What I can say is, I did have working notifications at some point but it allowed anyone to see the content of my Whatsapp messages and even reply to them without unlocking the phone so I turned them off somehow (was probably Special Settings/Quick replies)
Going to look further, the Notifications in Settings don't do anything. It could have something to do with me blocking the Internet on most Xiaomi apps but I sure hope that's not the case.
Edit: found something interesting in settings/apps/other settings. Selected messages and at thr bottom there is a setting to show notifications and guess what. it only has a single option related to the lock screen "don't show notifications at all" so it cannot be changed.
woah this miui is a mess
edit: I went ahead and debloated the phone from most of the Xiaomi apps. I have no access no notifications settings anymore but it didn't fix the problem
edit2: softlocked my phone and had to wipe everything. Notifications are back on stock lol
FIXED IT! woohoo!
After many, many hours of messing with my phone .. here's what you have to do:
Settings-Passwords & security - Privacy - Special app access - Battery optimisation
Here, click the blue bar and select "All apps"
Now scroll down until you find "Notifications" and open it.
Select "Don't optimise"
Holy mother of god NOW THAT'S A MAZE IF I HAVEN'T SEEN ONE!
sorry about the double post but wtf Miui
Edit: it breaks after the first notification. Then I reboot the phone and again it works for the first notification uhm yeah I give up. So I put it in Optimisation mode again, along with Always On and settings storage (had disabled them earlier) and now notifications pop on my lock screen but only new notifications!
Once I've unlocked the phone, the lock screen is empty until something new comes. However my Apple Music app now shows on lock screen as well with the typical controls for switching songs.

Thanks man!! I'll give a try! I've also discovered that notification were blocked, on lockscreen, for some contacts (the ones I wanted to be shown). I definitely agree with you that MIUI is a mess... My last phone was an OnePlus 6T, now I own a Mi 9T Pro. The hardware is amazing, but the software is a crap compared to the OxygenOS.
