[Guide] Accessibility for apps keep turning off - Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion

So I've searched through the forums and wasn't able to find any solution regarding this issue for the huawei p9 lite.
After searching for a few days i was finally able to get it to remain on.
--> Protect said app using the phone manager.
--> Ignore optimisation for said app in settings.
--> Restart your device
--> Turn on accessibility setting.
Hopefully this should solve your problem ^^

problem after rooting

Hi,
After I rooted my phone I tested some apps that require root like market enabled and autokiller and cachemate, in all cases I get a black screen with "SU request" on the top and after several seconds I get FC .
Anyone have this problem ? Or can help me solve it ...
Go to Settings --> Applications --> Development and then activate USB debugging....
thanks mate its all good now .

Accessibility Services Keep Turning Off [ROOTED]

Hi All,
I just recently rooted my Note5 with ForeverLoco's ROM using ODIN and with Anter47's Kernel. I noticed that after a while, the accessibility services (Settings > Accessibility > Services) which control Tasker and Greenify (among others) all turn themselves off after I manually turn them all back on. I have Clean Master as well as Greenify that kills/hibernates apps but none of the apps in the accessibility page are included on either list. What am i doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

On the S6 edge, I have a similar problem: the settings remain, but they simply stop working after some time. I have to either restart the phone, or switch them off and back on to get them working again.

hi
I also had similar problem when i had my Note4.I was also rooted etc etc .My workaround was to... ..when i flashed my new updated stock Rom i would quickly enable it ,but as you stated it would/might turn off later , I flashed numerous Lollipop Roms and it was present in all except my last Note 4 Rom.. ...COH4. i found issue to be fixed in this Rom.
The problem ( i supect ) , is that most users don't use this service a lot ,so it goes mostly unnoticed .Very fustrating "bug"
So far i have no issues with my Note5 .
Could be that root interferes with setting or just a Samsung "bug " ????
good luck

My S6 edge is not rooted, so it might be a bug on some Samsung roms
I am having the same issue on my find 7. It is very frustrating as I just set up a lot of automation tasks that rely in autovoice being accessibility enabled. Grrr
So from another post around here I found the solution for me and it's very (stupid) easy..
Under settings -> program management, I had to lock certain apps.
I had almost flashed another rom.
Same problem here with Tasker, Nova Launcher and True Phone accessibility services turning off. My phone has Lollipop and is rooted.
Which apps ?

Download Servicely from GP and keep everything turned on!
Im on Phronesis v6.5 rom 5.1 1 on my note 3.
I got the same issue, after reboot all my accessability permissions for my apps are turned off. Apps that need the accessability are Twilight, switch swiftly and a bunch of others including greenify.
Has anybody found a solution to this issue?
PS somehow Nova Launcher seems to keep its accessability ON through reboots!
Samsung and Huawei
Saw the subject is saying [ROOTED] but posting anyway even if this also applies also to non-rooted devices running the stock versions of Android:
On Samsung Galaxy devices (SG 5 and later), check to see if you have App Battery Optimizer in Samsung Smart Manager app enabled. Please disable this as it is known to disable app Accessibility Services: go to Android Settings > General > Battery > look under App Optimization and select Details. Then find the apps in question and turn them off.
For Huawei phones, go to Settings > Apps > Advanced Options > Ignore Optimations and toggle "allow" for your apps that needs to be allowed accessibility permissions.
It happens to me as well. When I use titanium backup to clear apps cache it will shut off all accessibility apps and you will have to turn them back on. I noticed it happens when I use cool master as well.
Hi, it happens to me with Greenify on a Xiaomi redmi note 3 (marshmallow), the only thing that worked for me was: Settings>apps setting>permissions> autostart, and allowing Greenify. It works, even when i went back to optimization feature and leave Greenify to be optimized as it was.
Hi, I am also nor rooted but thought I would chime in as I am also experiencing this annoying issue with my Huawei Mediapad X2 running EMUI 4.0 Marshmallow Stock. Unfortunately, setting Greenify to ignore battery optimizations does not help. Once apps are killed, their Accessibility setting is turned off automatically - very frustrating. Anyone have any other solutions?
The solution given by elpipo22 works for me in a rather different environment, a xiaomi MI 4 with miui. The autostart option here was in Security app -> permissions -> autostart -> choose the apps which should retain accessibility settings.
Hii,
In my case, oppo f1s, i found out one solution
First of all your device should be rooted, the best
way to do that is through resetting firmware to factory or updating to newer oppo system image, then installing custom recovery BIOS or whatever it's name is,
then rooting under Recovery mode using Magisc...
All this is described in some xda-developers forum topic.
But that is not our issue for now,
To prevent accessibility permission to be revoked
from our service or app, we have to go developper,
by browsing SETTINGS >> DEVICE INFO , then clicking about 8 times or more on BUIL NUMBER... now that we
have become DEVELOPPER for good, we go back and then
we navigate towards SETTINGS >> ADVANCED SETTINGS >> DEVELOPPER SETTINGS... then enable DEVELOPPER OPTIONS, open section RUNNING SERVICES, browse for application named SECURITY CENTER, inside whitch we can see 4 running services, then STOP service named
CONTROL_VERIFY_SERVICE (of course on your own risk)
, that is it, now just go to SETTINGS >> ADVACED SETTINGS >> ACCESSIBILITY and enable accessibility for your application and enjoy it.....

switching apps off outside home

I'm trying to get tasker to switch an app on and off depending on if I am home. I can get the app to launched but not to kill it. Have added an exit task but it doesn't seem to work. Tried to get it to make a notification when I get home and leave using the same setup and that works any ideas how to get around this.
Very new to the app so bear with me.
Killing apps is iffy at best. I believe since lollipop, it has to do with SELinux. Google play pulled Taskkill from the play store a long time ago. It's still available though. See this Reddit post.

That's bit of a bummer. Killing apps at various locations was my main reason for buying the app.
+ Profile -> State -> Phone -> Cell near (at home) SCAN
... + task -> app -> launch app => exit task -> app -> kill app
Similar to this I mananged to enable/ disable (cgi, http get) my ip camera at home.
perhaps it helps.

That's what I did on my oneplus 3t but the Three in Touch refuses to switch close down.

Mmmh, I checked with three apps on my device, they also refuses to close.
Go to settings -> about phone and look for SELinux status. I'm sure it says enforcing.
Can't find SElinux in that menu.
You must be stock, so it's enforcing.
I am
I've the same problem, but i've magisk and SElinux permissive. Can not kill an app anymore with Tasker on Nougat (tried with root option checked and unchecked). Tasker is enabled in Magisk superuser.
AutoInput back out of the currently running app.
I ended up with an autoshorcut to a kill task in automate. Works perfectly. It's a shame that this function is not working in Tasker but in others like automate or macrodroid.

Lastpass - Accessibility option keeps disabling

I've got lastpass installed and have chosen to use the accessibility option as I want it to fill the forms in chrome, however the option in accessibility keeps disabling on it's own.
Anyone know a solution?
Wish I did, having the same issue. Seems to only occur after a restart though. I normally switch it off at night and let the alarm switch it back on in the morning.
I changed the app launch settings to manual in the battery menu to fix this
Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk
I changed the setting in the battery menu to "manual" but it still keeps disabling several times a day. Does anyone know is there's a fix?
I have a Mate 10 Pro and I have usually been getting this issue after a Huawei software update.
Old thread I know, but the only solution that has always worked for me is the following.
1. Uninstall Lastpass
2. Restart your phone
3. Install Lastpass and enable all the functions you like, including draw over other apps, fill helper bubble etc.
The options at least for me stay enabled until the next update. Without doing the above steps, they will just get auto-disabled after a few seconds.

Huawei P10 killing apps that use the GPS (ignoring any settings)

Since a few weeks ago I noticed that my Huawei P10 is aggressively killing any apps that use the GPS after locking the screen.
My EMUI & Android versions are both 8.0.0.
The apps I tried:
- OsmAnd - which I use to trace my walks and improve OSM with the data
- Komoot - which is an app to track your hikes and add photos, etc
- Graticule - which lets you share your location in realtime
What I tried:
1. Bringing up the task manager, locking the lock above the app.
2. Settings -> Battery -> Launch
* 'Manage all automatically' unchecked
* <App Name> unchecked then check all options on 'Manage manually' screen (Auto-launch, Secondary launch and Run in background)
3. Settings -> Apps & notifications -> Apps -> Settings (cog at the bottom of the screen) -> Special access -> Ignore battery optimisation
* Added the apps to the 'Allowed' list
Regardless of the three things above after locking the screen in 5 to 10 minutes the app is killed. I think this is a bug in Huawei's implementation but their support is impossible to contact. I tried repeatedly and received no answer.
This is very frustrating because it used to work until a short time ago. I'm thinking about a factory reset and if that doesn't solve the issue I will be selling the phone because unfortunately this is a deal breaker for me.
Anyone experiencing the same problems? Any solutions? Suggestions?
Also tried formatting the cache partition, didn't help. If I'll have time during the weekend I'll do a factory reset.
I had the same problem with Strava, on an older version.
adb shell pm disable-user com.huawei.powergenie
If you want it back: adb shell pm enable com.huawei.powergenie
Powergenie is to limit battery usage, and it's too aggressive to kill app services.
Thank you for the response.
I did a hard reset and deactivated powergenie as instructed above and the problem still persists.
I can't describe how disappointed I am. I will be putting up the phone for sale.
What I don't understand is: am I the only one having the problem? I don't see other people complaining or they complained about older versions whereas for me it was the other way around. It worked fine until a few months ago and now it doesn't.
I am having this problem with Honor 7x and Runtastic Pro

Did someone already solve this problem.
Hi,
I have the same gps recording problems om my Huawei P10Plus. On 8.0.0 android.
Did someone already found a solution. Huawei support can't offer smart ideas.

Hey, had this problem with running app runtastic, so when device promted, I switched in app settings to manual and allowed background running.
After that app was running fine.
I have the same problem with latest release.
Afaik there is no way to prevent huawei from doing this by simply factory reseting. It is not depending on a temporaly bug obviously it is a feature.
I think this was the same problem while VLC blacklisted Huawei devices in the google play store from compatible devices.
Some months ago they said they will make a deal with Huawei... No news about this until today.
And komoot has a topic in their development forum about but still open since many months.
http://support.komoot.de/forums/164264-ideen/suggestions/14366967Sobald es
And GPS apps are not the only ones. I've tried some apps to play local music from the phone on google chromecast. Mostly they stop playing after one music track. I think this is also regarding to the huawei problem with safing energy to aggressively.
Last but not least there are apps that don't have any problems with it. For example Google Maps, Huawei Apps, Whatsapp any much more. So there seem to be a whitelist to the powerengine.
strange.. i have no issue with strava, endomondo, google maps, soundcloud, spotify, google music ...thats the one i tested.
I use endomondo, google maps, soundlcoud and spotify almost everyday without any issues.
Maybe its just that i use the whitelisted apps.
I am on stock B379 C432 firmware.
Solution
We had the same issue in our app. The solution in our app was to change the setting in Settings
Settings->Apps & notifications->Apps-><your app>->Battery
Set App launch to 'Manage manually'
Auto-launch - activated
Secondary launch - activated
Run in background - activated

Goto Phone Manager touch power saving->Optimize.Phone Manager will rapidly identify apps or features that are rapidly drainning the battery.Touch the Optimize button net to each or feartures to disable it and start saving power.You can touch Recover to re-enable the app or feature.When you remove an app from the protected apps list,your phone will close the app automatically when you turn off the screen to save batterry.
Has this been fixed?
This was always the big issue with my P10 in that Apps that I wanted to always run kept being killed until I found this article https://dontkillmyapp.com/huawei?app=Tasker which refered to https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-pro/themes/remove-powergenie-to-allow-background-t3890409
after removing powergenie with adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.huawei.powergenie I have had no more issues with applications being killed.
