not the only one. Check and see if you can disable it by going in to settings -> apps -> All -> Power. I can't get rid of it sadly. :/

The only way to permanently remove it now is by rooting.
To temporarily remove it, you can ford close the "Power" app from the App info screen.

What i done was hold it down then stop app it's now gone but can use it in settings

Settings, apps, all, power, turn off notifications, yes

This doesnt work on non rooted devices. The "show notifications" option is greyed out and cannot be unchecked. At least thats how it is on my device running 1.28.401.7.

If you are rooted, you need to either flash a ROM that has that option enabled, or install a mod (like this) to enable it.

I thought ARHD had it. I'll check the link out though.
Thanks,

Any updates on this? What happens if I disable it?

For non-rooted (stock) phones, you can't remove it. You can bypass it by "Force closing" the Power app. But it will come back after a reboot or if your battery goes down to 14% & Power Saver turns on.
As for disabling it, I didn't try, but would expect that you will loose the "Power Saver" function & the options under Settings>Power. ("Power" will be completely gone).

the best way to disable the notification while keeping the power saving app running is to disable the notification receiver activity in the power app.
must have root access
1. install and open an app 'system tuner'
2. click system and wait until all of the apps are there
3. scroll down to 'Power'
4. tap power and then tap details
5. scroll down to "receivers"
6. untick "powersaver.PowerSaverNotificationReceiver"
7. reboot

[Q] How to keep display on (dimmed) during charging the battery?

Can anybody has got the solution?
It's very useful for (not only) me...

when you're charging it, go into the brightness menu and turn it down

Go to settings display and tick stay awake while charging.

[Q] Power Saver notification on 4.2.2

Just got the 4.2.2 update today which installed fine.. sites all over the internet claim this should remove the annoying Power Saver notification.
Unfortunately this hasn't happened for me, I can only remove the notification by turning the service off or using the force stop option in App info.
The 'show notifications' checkbox is greyed out in App info.
Can anyone shed any light on this, I want the Power Saver mode on - just without the permanent notification!!
Thanks,
Mark

There is an app in the Play store :JMZ Power Saver Disable or something close to that that does exactly what you want.

Yeah i've heard of that thanks - my One isn't rooted though. Just seems like everyone is reporting the update fixes it but it hasn't for me amd I can't work out why!!

It's removed only when the power saver is off.

Photosphere/Power saver notification/Developer options
I've seen that the Photosphere application/feature, Power saver notification and the Developer options button is removed from settings...............these seem to be missed somehow

Just found out that tapping 7 times on the build number [under About phone, under Software Info, More] enables the Developer options........

Because an app is obscuring a permission request... when trying to USB Debug Website

I have an unrooted/unchanged/stock Huawei P10 running EMUI 5.1 and am trying to debug a website I'm making. Latest Chrome on the P10 and latest Chrome on my Retina MacBook Pro 15'' (late 2013) High Sierra 10.13
The route worked on all my previous devices. USB Debugging is checked on, I plug in the cable and say yes to the prompt "Allow Access to device data?". Next prompt "Allow USB Debugging" -> OK gives me the following error: "An App is obscuring a permission request. Settings can't verify your response"
Looking for solutions I read stuff about background apps which mess up things. All I know of / remember installing is "Mi Band Tools", and "Pie Controls".
I tried to shut down "Mi Band Tools" via Settings -> Apps -> Mi Band Tools -> "Stop" – But it seems not to be stopped for long? Since I don't know if this would solve the problem anways, I figured to come here first. It would be great if I wouldn't have to uninstall these apps.. always a pain to restore etc.
Thank you very much!

*gentle push*, because the problem still remains

I had the same problem with my Huawei Honor View10.
I had to uncheck the "Permit drawing over other apps" for a (in my case) JINA Drawer. Maybe you have to uncheck an other one...
In EMUI 8 = Settings - Apps - Apps & notifications - Apps - Settings (bottom of screen) - Special access - Draw over other apps
Good luck!

Holy Moly.. this setting is hidden as hell; on my P10 running EMUI 5.1 (german), the setting path was:
settings > apps > settings (corg button at the bottom left) > special access > draw over other apps > talkback
Thank youuu!

Yes! On my device Mate 1o Pro, it was Talkback as well that ¨obscured a permission request¨.

If you have a custom rom with Smart Pixels and it is turned on, it will do this also. Turn it off, retry,

I have an Honor 8 pro and I'm facing the same issue. I've disabled all apps which draw on the screen and restarted my phone too.

Fix #2 - if it works
i was messing with my Samsung Galaxy J7 Core J701F/DS and I was trying to figure out your problem also because i got the same problem as yours so the thing that worked for me is going to Settings (Nougat 7.0/1)> Apps> 3-dot menu/optionsl settings/other settings> Special Access> Apps that can be on top> Disable all apps like literally disable them all and try to debug your phone again...if it works, enable apps in that setting one by one and repeat debugging process. If it doesnt work, disable the last app you enabled, and if it works again...that is the app that is doing the dirty work...mine was not in the system apps it was one of my apps which is AZ Screen Recorder lol....(why the app that is being used everyday need to be disabled....)

1. Apps such as Blue light filter apps constantly appear on the top of your screen thus breaking some of the on screen functionalities. Try disabling display over other apps permission of such apps and you should be fine.
2. Also, sometimes it is because of your custom launcher, so try switching to your stock launcher if above solutions don't work.
3. If Accessibility for some apps are on then try disabling them first.
PS : Of all the 3 solutions try the possible ones.
Hope it helps.

This put me on the right track.
I have an LG G6 running Android 8.0. My Keeper Security app needs permission to Draw over other apps and since around December 2018 it has started acting 'flaky'. The app would warn me that I need to turn on this permission, but when I clicked "OK" in the Keeper app to take me to the Android setting for the app, it was always turned on. I could turn it ON/OFF, along with the setting that needed this permission in the Keeper app (called Keeper Fill) and eventually get it to work again, but it would always break again very soon after.
As I am getting ready to go on a trip, I installed Google's Datally app. It, too, wants me to turn on Draw over other apps, but when I tap "next" to be taken to the Android settings page to enable Draw over other apps, nothing happens (I usually expect an app detects it has been enabled and gives "success" message).
So I started disabling the 3 possible suspects listed by kapil1100. I had LG's Comfort View and some Accessibility options enabled, so I turned them off and: no change.
I disabled all other apps that have permission to Draw over other apps via: Settings > Apps & notifications > Special access > Draw over other apps, and: no change.
I use Evie launcher, so I went back to the stock one: no change.
I got thinking about what else could be modifying/accessing the screen and realized that LG has custom Home touch buttons.
I went to: Settings > Display > Home touch buttons > Hide Home touch buttons and DISABLED Show lock/hide icon and then tried enabling Draw over other apps for Datally and IT WORKED!.
I was then able to turn Show lock/hide icon back ON and everything has been working as expected. I suspect that, because I had Show lock/hide icon turned on during an upgrade, something got messed up and my turning it OFF and back ON fixed the issue.
I hope this helps someone!

Pie keep killing my apps in background

Hello, since the update to Android Pie my phone is killing the app in background everytime i switch them. Since i use my phone for games it's very frustrating to restart the app everytime. How can i keep my apps open? Thanks in advance and sorry for my english

Maybe it is turned on in your developer options, that apps would strictly be killed after not in use. In developer options (Phone-info->software-info->tapping on buildnumber, till its unlocked) under the apps section ist the point you could maybe turn off.

Have you added the apps to the "sleeping apps" in battery settings?

No, i don't have any

Make sure they are allowed background access in app settings for battery.

Have you tried wiping the Cache Partition in Recovery Mode? It could be a simple software conflict.

Much easy to add app to run in backrground is on desktop long press on icon than press info about app...After that options of that app is open there choose battery options and than tick allow runing in background
You can check in device manager/battery if there is set to no run in background apps

From here? It still keep closing after 20 or less minutes
I have done an hard reset after update

Help my apps are closing overnight I wake up in morning and my 26 apps have closed and only 4 apps left.ive tried everything including factory reset. Please help guys

A late reply but go to:
Settings>Apps Tap the 3 dots in the top corner and choose 'Special access' then choose 'Optimise battery usage'. From the choice of 'Apps not optimised' and 'All' choose 'All'. Turn off Optimise for each app you don't want to close automatically.
