Hi Everyone, I've posted this question on ZenTalk ASUS Forum, but it seems nobody have answer yet, so I'm trying to ask for help here. All screenshots related to this problem is attached
Model Name: ROG Phone 3 RAM 12 GB/Disk 256 GB, bought officially in Indonesia
Firmware Version: 17.0823.2009.99
Rooted or not: not
Frequency of Occurrence : always
APP Name & APP Version (If your issue relates to the app): Pokemon GO cloned in Twin Apps
========================================
Details :
1) I already have a Pokemon GO from Google Play installed
2) I go to Settings -> Advanced -> Twin Apps -> Supported apps on this device -> Pokemon GO -> click the toggle button ON
3) A pop up saying that I should register a google account for this duplicated apps
4) I click on the three dot menu on the top right corner -> Accounts for duplicated apps -> Add Google account
5) Then I input the same primary google account I use on the main OS, and also one more another secondary account
6) I open the duplicated Pokemon GO (indicated by a double rectangle yellow on the bottom left of the app icon on the drawer)
7) I log in to the Pokemon GO with my primary google account. Everything is almost perfect, but there's a problem
8) There's a feature in Pokemon GO called Adventure Sync. In short, it helped player to complete a distance-walking-related-task, such as hatching eggs and etc
9) I've walked for 13 km, my Google Fit account says so (indicated by the displayed information), but, the Adventure Sync feature in duplicated Pokemon GO says the opposite, all my walking distance is not counted
10) I did a cross check with the original Pokemon GO app in the main OS. I walked several km more, and it's counted
11) I've checked the permission tab on the cloned Pokemon GO's app info, first it shows blank, but when I clicked it, all needed permissions are allowed. I cross check one of the feature, Camera, and it indeed works, the cloned Pokemon GO can access Camera
12) I re-check the Twin Apps menu on the Settings -> Accounts for duplicated apps -> click either my primary / secondary google account -> Sync data. Here I only found sync Contacts option
13) End of explanation. My biggest question :
a) How does Twin Apps in ROG Phone 3 works?
b) How do I get my cloned Pokemon Go's Adventure Sync feature to correctly get my walking distance registered in my google account?

Summary: after adding an Android User account under PN, the new account never reaches the Home screen. Stuck on "Android is starting..." Full details follow:
I'm running Pure Nexus on 2 different Nexus 6 phones.
Phones are unencrypted. Installed Magisk v13.3. Phones pass SafetyNet checks.
Android 7.1.2
Security patch June 5
Kernel: 3.10.40 PureKernel Shamu 2.2.3, June 12
PureNexus: 7.1.2-20170612-OFFICIAL
Build: NJH47B
I add an Android User account.: Settings, Add User
I enter the Google account and password.
The new User account is added to the phone.
But after swiping to clear the lock screen, the phone only displays "Android is starting...." with an animated line below to show that it's working.
It never clears this screen. The notifications bar works and shows Google Play Store notifications, and has normal function, can also allows me to switch back to the main User account.
I switch back to the main user account and back to the new user, and it still never clears the "Android is starting...." screen. Tapping "Back" clears the screen for a second and then returns to "Android is starting...." Home key does nothing. Recents key shows recent apps.
Google Assistant works... i can tell it to open Google Play Store and download apps.
Apps install.
Google always send a security alert email when I log into a new device/account with my gmail account...Google did not send the security email for either device when I added a new User with a Google account.
And so far the features are working if I use Google Assistant (long press the home key)..and then have Assistant do what I would normally do by tapping an app icon on the home screen. I can use my voice to open an app.
But I can't access the Home screen (desktop) for the new user account. And there's no App drawer.
so something is really not right
UPDATE: The problem was Nova Launcher
Correction on the subject.. .the issue was Open GApps Nano and not having Google Now Launcher on the main user account....see more below
When I flashed this PN ROM (I'm a newbie), and then set up the main user account with the apps from my previous Android installation on my main Google account, it installed Nova Launcher. I restored my Nova backup from my Google Drive and all was good.
(A few apps on the PN were missing...no clock app for example. And there were 2 Contacts apps...)
And when I went into Nova Settings (for Nova Launcher) on the main account there was no way to disable Nova. I noticed there was no way for me to switch over to Google Now as the launcher. But Nova was working OK so I left it on.
After installing the 2nd User account, the desktop never appeared. When I switched to that User account, the phone only showed "Android is starting..."
I recalled the issue with Nova Launcher.. I went back to the main user account, uninstalled Nova Settings, and then got stuck with the same issue.... no Home screen or desktop or app drawer.
I used Google Assistant (thankfully it worked) to ask for Play Store, and Installed Google Now Launcher. and suddenly I had a home screen/desktop and app drawer. All good.
So in the new User Account, I had to do this too.
I had installed Open GApps Nano after I flashed the PN ROM.
So I suspect all these app issues are with Open GApps Nano.....missing key apps (Clock?!, Camera) dupes of stock apps, no launcher.
Again I'm a newbie but am figuring it out.
Please comment if you think the issue was the Open GApps Nano not installing the right stuff at the time of flashing. (same thing on both phones)
Use the recommended GApps.... https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=171925

I don't have this device and just want to share this method. Use it at your own risk!
Download
System Requirement:
BBB100-4, upgrade to AAO472 or newer, Android 7.1.1
Steps:
1. Download GMSV4.1.apk from link above, copy it to phone and install
(1) You will see a new app called “谷歌安装器-水星版”
(2) Make sure you did not install any other GMS apk before!!!
2. Enable GMS
(1) Open the app you just installed and click the button, “开启GMS” as shown below. There would be a pop up saying “开启GMS”. After a few seconds, the pop up will close itself.
(2) Enter System Setting, enter Developer Options (*), find “Enable GMS” at the bottom. After you switch it on, you MUST reboot your phone.
*How to enable “Developer Options”: enter Settings-About Phone, click “Build Number” 7 times.
3. Set up location permission for GMS services.
(1) Enter Applications-Options (Gear Icon)-Permissions-Location
(2) From right corner 3 dot menu, “Show system app”, grant permission to Google Play Store, Google Play Service, and LocationServices.
4. Set up GMS apps permissions
(1) Settings-Application-right corner 3 dot menu, “Show system”
(2) Find out all GMS applications (including Google Backup, Google Calendar Sync, Google One Time inti, Google Play service, Google Play Store, Google Service Framework, Google Partner Settings, Google Contacts Sync, Google Account Management. Click them one by one, then click Permissions and grant all. Make sure you grant all permissions on all Google apps!
can anyone confirm?
I feel really uncomfortable to allow permissions for my entire Google apps to a 3rd party app...

Hello!
I've successfully managed to enable the GMS on BBB100-4 but Assistant, Gmail, Google, Lens, Maps, Hangouts, Play Books and Youtube aren't working.
Only Disk, Duo, Chrome, Photos, Play Store and Translator work properly. The other apps just open and then close themselves.
Any suggestions what it could be, please?
If you go to
Settings
Apps
Default apps ( under 3 dot menu)
Assist app
Voice input
2 choices
Google
Basic google
I set it to basic so google doesn't constantly listen and still work when pressing the mic icon.
Well after a restart of the phone this gets reverted to default and set to google. Not totally sure if this is the only trigger to get this to reset. Either way pretty sure my settings should not do this.
Reached out to google and Samsung but no reply after 3 days.

Hi guys, after losing 6 months plus of WhatsApp data, and trying to recover it, I've found a way to conduct automatic/manual WhatsApp backup to google drive even if u don't have native gms on my Honor Magic 3 Pro.
Specs-
Device- Honor Magic 3 Pro
OS- Magic UI 7.0, no native gms
WhatsApp - Native, original version installed from Play/ Aurora store or WhatsApp official site.
Let me be clear about it, this method uses a gms sandbox app to achieve this, but doesn't actually run WhatsApp on the sandbox app, instead just uses the sandbox app gms to do drive backup and is something I found while experimenting. It's just extremely hassle free and completely do once and forget method.
There are two methods to achieve this, Method 1 is what I personally use.
METHOD 1
Advantage - Completely hassle free, do once, configure and forget method.
Once done using this method, can be repeated with any sandbox app of your choice. However repeating in future will be difficult. And will have extra steps. And will not be able to migrate to method 2 hassle free.
Disadvantage - Some WhatsApp features are limited, like payments won't work, and adding a status update is a bit of a long shot, but viewing status is not an issue.
METHOD 2
Advantage - No above disadvantages.
Disadvantage - Need to request a WhatsApp verification code every time you want to backup.
Can only be done with gbox sandbox and not any other sandbox app.
LINKS FOR DOWNLOAD -
1. Gbox
2. WhatsApp (gbox version)
3. Google Drive (gbox version)
4. WhatsApp Original Verion (clock on package installer, not Google play.
NOW ON TO THE ACTUAL METHOD...
INITIALIZATION - common for both methods
1. Go to GboxLabs official site.
2. Download Gbox.
3. Now on the website, click on the side burger menu (three parallel lines at top right corner)
4. Go to apps availability,
5. Scroll to the bottom and download WhatsApp.
6. Download and install google drive from the same page
6. Open Gbox, and give required permissions.
7. Login to Huawei ID.
8. Minimize Gox, go to device settings and give all permissions.
9. Go to app launch in settings and change to manage manually and switch on all three options.
10. Now launch WhatsApp, the one you installed from GboxLabs
11. Minimize it and go to device settings and give all permissions, also repeat the same as gbox on App launch.
12. Open google drive gbox version, add google account and go to settings and give permissions.
METHOD 2
13. Now open WhatsApp again (gbox version).
14. Verify your mobile number.
15. Conduct restores, skip drive restore and conduct local restore
16. Now you can conduct Google backups.
17. Wait wait , that's not the end.
18. Wait for google backup to end.
19. open original WhatsApp.
20. Verify your number.
21. Done you can now have native whatsapp with google drive backup.
22. every time you want to backup, just repeat from steps 12.
METHOD 1
13. Open WhatsApp gbox version
14. Verify your number
15. Conduct restores when prompted to, skip drive restore and only do local restore.
16. Conduct g drive backup,
17. wait for backup to complete.
18. Now uninstall WhatsApp (real one)
19. ⚠ ⚠ ⚠ while uninstalling, uncheck the Delete app data option.
20. Reinstall WhatsApp from WhatsApp website.
21. Open real WhatsApp,
22. Click agree and continue, do not click enter number.
23. Click on three dots on the top right corner.
24. Click on link to existing number.
25. You will get a QR code.
26. Click a picture of the QR code with another device.
27. Open WhatsApp (gbox version)
28. Click on settings and go to linked devices.
29. Click on add device.
30. If gbox crashes, remove your device screen lock and try again (it's a bug, I've contacted gbox support, they are working to fix it.
31. try again.
32. Scan the QR code you clicked on another phone.
33. Voila done.
34. Now you can normally use native WhatsApp with all function and gbox will do the backup for you.
NOTE : METHOD 1 CAN BE USED WITH ANY SANDBOX APP OF YOUR CHOICE, AFTER COMOLETEING THE INITIALIZATION STEPS AS MENTIONED ABOVE.
FINISHING UP -
1. Disable notifications on the gbox version of WhatsApp.
BACKGROUND INFO-
Both Gbox version of WhatsApp and real WhatsApp uses the same location to store app data.
so, data is interchangeable between both apps.
SOLVINGS ISSUES-
1. ⚠ ⚠ ⚠ Do not install WhatsApp from gbox app play store.
2. Install only from Gbox labs app availability.
once done you can update from play store, no issue.
3. If there's issue with not able to link existing WhatsApp, or option not shown, uninstall WhatsApp as in method 1 above. And install from link I've connected above.
