Active Edge stopped working randomly - Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers

Hello everyone, I'm having issues with active edge. You can squeeze for assistant or silent stuff. But it stopped working for me whenever the phone is locked. And it'll start working again when it's charging. It stops working again when it's off the charger...
Steps to reproduce:
1. Ensure your phone is not charging
2. Try squeezing for assistant, if it works then let your phone go to sleep and lock (5 sec default)
3. Unlock your phone and try squeezing again
4. If it stops working, put your phone into charging state (wireless or wired), and it should start working again until next sleep
Let me know if you have the same issue too? I'm on the Feb update btw.

Can't replicate it here. Still on the January update but about to install February.

Update:
I found out that "allow when screen is off" is causing the issue. Turning it off and active edge is working now (when screen is on). Perhaps Google can fix this soon

Thanks for replying. Hopefully a factory reset would fix the issue.

I just factory reset and the issue still persists. Just so anyone else having the same issue know this.

Mike does something similar. I sometimes unlock the phone and the active edge does not work. Then I push the power button to lock the device, then unlock and it works fine. Can't really figure out as it's random...it doesn't happen every single time.

Exactly the same issue! It works fine after I turned off "allow when the screen is off". I never used it with screen off, since the screen turns on whenever you lift the phone, or when it detects movement.

Hey guys just a last update: I managed to get it working by reflashing the factory image (not OTA)

what option you have selected in settings? Always or Never? Its was change in ICS and it works different than 2.3 GB...
The setting is actually asking you when you want to leave wifi on when screen turns off.
Always. will leave wifi on and
Never. will turn it off when screen turns off.
Mine works fine.
In settings select "Never (increases data usage)", something like that, mine is Portuguese...

Obviosly a bug since more are experiencing it.

Go to "Hidden Menu" / "Connectivity Test" and check if "PowerSave Mode" is marked.
Its an ICS bug, does it on all my android phones, evo 3d, sgs2, lg 4x etc...

Mine works too, just go to Wi-Fi's Advance menu and change the Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep setting, then it will never turn off
I'm not sure that WIFI is off or not.
But while updating apps in Google Play and then screen off, when phone waked, Google Play was just hang and stop updating.
May be just a bug of Play but I rather think it's a problem of stock rom.
With firmware V10d and earlier my phone had the same problem but it's gone since update to V10f.

Xperia Z1 issues

Guys I recently got my Xperia Z1. And constantly I am facing issues in my Z1. Here are the issues that i am facing along with the pictures.
1. In one week I have faced this issue twice. The issue is that suddenly all the signals disappear ( I am using BSNL sim ). And when I try to register it on network an error message comes that cannot register on network. Make sure your SIM card is inserted or selected network is available. So is this issue with the SIM card or the phone? The first time when I faced this issue I manually registered it on network and it worked. But second time when I tried to register my SIM manually nothing happened. So I had to restart the phone. And the issue seems to have disappeared.

2. I faced this issue yesterday. When I tried opening the camera app (default app) this message popped up. I tried reopening it many times but no success. Only after restarting the mobile I was able to open the camera app successfully.
3. This issue also happened yesterday. I was playing a not so graphic intensive game. Played the game for around 10 min or so. Then I stopped playing it. I checked CPU-Z, about 5 minutes after stopping, for battery and other information and noticed it is showing battery health as overheat. I checked this coz my phone gets quite hot if I play game for sometime. Is it normal for a mobile to get overheated just by playing a simple game for 10 mins?
4. Today I noticed that there is a slight yellow hue present when screen brightness is minimum. I compared it with my Nexus 4, this too with minimum brightness, and the difference was quite evident that there is a yellow tinge. Maybe it is not evident in the pic I am attaching but it is quite noticeable in reality. So wanted to ask whether there is really an issue or not.
Hoping to get my doubts cleared as I never faced such issue in a week old mobile.
Thank you
Are you on a rooted phone using a custom rom?

I suggest you to reflash your phone with Sony Update Service, that will fully reinstall your Stock ROM, save anything u need because that will wipe all of your datas.

Note 3 on Android 4.3 won't enter deep sleep!

Odd bug I found on my note 3 is that the phone will sit at 300 Mhz with the screen off all day without entering deep sleep
It will only do this on WiFi though as soon as I turn it off Deep Sleep will function as it should.
I have the NB4 firmware and Bootloader, Android 4.3.
I am rooted and I have Xposed Firmware installed, anyone else have this issue?
Install wakelock detector.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.uzumapps.wakelockdetector
It will tell you what's waking your device. But I'm going to guess you have location services on.
I have the exact same problem. It's a month now and I didn't change my wifi router or anything.
There are no apps directly causing this. I will inspect kernel wakelocks and report back. But I bet that some app is doind something that causes "android system" to wakelock the cpu. I have many apps so it will be very hard since none of them have any battery drain out of the normal usage.

Turn off "Always allow scanning" in wifi. (Menu/Advanced.) Scanning wakes the phone, and the normal scan interval is 5 minutes. (It'll still be scanning when you're in the page showing the available connections. You are in there to look for a connection, right? No one would ever be in there for any other reason. (No, Bill Gates didn't say that no one will ever need more than 640K of memory.) IOW, it's going to scan whether you need it to or not if you're on that page, but it stops as soon as you close the page. (Even though there's a Scan Now button. Come on, Google - next time, try thinking. Just a little.)
Hmm nope.. I think something else was corrupted somewhere.
I tried this:
Code:
adb shell pm clear com.android.providers.settings
adb reboot
After setting the main settings again, the phone is now much faster and as of now the problem didn't show up.
I'll keep you posted if it happens again. If not, this could help many many people.
Confirmed: the problem was totally solved.
I suggest anyone with the same problem to give this a try and do not restore the main settings from a backup.. but just set again the home and lockscreen or any of the main settings you need.
I think something gets messed up with intensive use or tests. This apparently cleans it.

A friend of mine had his Note3 very slow and draining battery very quickly after the last OTA update. With my "method" his note3 is now back to normal.
I had the same problem, the phone was at 300 Mhz with the screen off all day without entering deep sleep mode.
All I did was changing the wallpaper to the default one !!!!
Ploblem solved.
Very strange ....
I tried it 3-4 times (switching wallpapers from default to another one downloaded from the internet) to make sure that this was the problem.
At all times the problem came back and disappearing.
Note3 n9005, stock android 4.3, No Root.
Thanks Zibri !!!
ps
How can I try this without root ?
Code:
adb shell pm clear com.android.providers.settings
adb reboot

[Q] Turning screen off interrupts audio streaming

Hello all,
This phone has been great EXCEPT for this one thing -- when I am streaming audio from TuneIn or XiiaLive and turn the screen off, the connection CONSTANTLY drops out, and takes forever to buffer before playing again. If I turn the screen back on, the app starts buffering again immediately and quickly finishes.
This does not happen with Google Music, and it happens whether I'm streaming on Wi-Fi or LTE. I've tried turning off Low Power Audio via a build.prop change from the Viper Audio app, I've tried turning on CPU High Performance.. but nothing seems to make any difference. It's like data communications just stop for a bit for no reason when the screen's off.
I'm running the latest stock ROM.
I can't be the only one running into this. Anybody have any luck fixing this?
So by high cpu performance I assume you aren't in power save at all right? This comes to mind.

I was referring to the "High Performance" mode or whatever in the Developer Options.
I didn't recognize the screen you posted, and it turns out Power Save mode is disabled on Verizon phones. So I don't even have that.

Ok, I'm on AT&T so mine is different then. For the heck of it (I know you said it happens on both mobile and wifi) can you check your settings on Settings>Wi-Fi>Advanced Menu and then look for and try disabling Wi-Fi optimization if present, and enable Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep (Always).
Maybe it won't help at all, or maybe you already have them configured that way. Just throwing ideas out there for what it could be.
I appreciate your suggestion. I'll have to give it a shot later, although I'm not terribly optimistic.
I'm streaming XiiaLive as I'm typing this, and I hear the disconnect sound basically every 20 seconds. If I turn the screen on, it stops doing this.

Sound, Flashlight, Vibration, Camera NOT WORKING AT ALL on my HW P30 Pro

I am using P30 Pro VOG L029 9.1.0.168
Yesterday I was driving and using GPS when suddenly everything goes silence.
1. No Sound (even Music was playing but muted)
2. No vibration at all (even the usual vibration when I turn on the phone)
3. Camera Can't be open. No error message whatsoever. (it's blinking black one time like the camera was running but nothing happened.
4. Even flashlight is dead. (when I press, there is the blue ring light up around the flashlight icon but no flash), and no error message here also).
I haven't tried factory reset yet, because O dont have a chance to backup my files and photo yet.
I have tried running on safe mode. Still same thing happen.
And NO, I didn't drop the phone... I am using UAG Plasma Casing BTW.
What should I do?

hi can i know have you settled the issue?
Hi, I wondering if you have any solution about this issue ? That is exactly what is happen to me
To everyone with the same problem, follow these steps:
1. Drain the phone's battery
2. Leave it on that state for 10 minutes (an hour, just to be sure)
3. Open it again
Phone should start vibrating and playing back sounds now.
Should also fix the camera and flashlight issue.
Your welcome.

Drain the phone's battery until 0?
Exact same thing happened to me on my P30, after a couple of weeks things got fixed on their own. A few days later the flash and the speaker sound went off again, and the cam and vibration kept working .. how weird is this issue !!!

You cant drain the phone's battery until 0, because the phone turns off at 2%

Hi, I know is a old thread but..
I have followed this method 3 months ago and p30 started working again.
Yesterday I had again the same issue but this procedure did not fix anything: camera, flash, vibration and sound don't work.
Do you have any raccomandation?

I've exactly the same problem on my P30 Pro, plus battery drain, heating and slow startup. Tried all the apparent fixes, the above, safe mode, clearing system cache, all with the exception of a factory reset.
Help!!!!
