Question Display refresh rate stuck at automatic - ASUS ZenFone 8

Hi,
the display refresh rate is stuck in automatic mode and I can't change it because the options are greyed out.
Does anybody have an idea what I maybe messed up here?
Regards,
Hyper

If you've locked the refresh rate to a specific value as a custom power/batery setting, that will disable the switch and default to whatever you've fixed it to. Once you remove it, it will become flexible again

Thank you for the hint. I looked but I could not find any setting related to this. :-/

Did you unbloat the phone in any way?

ROM? Mods? Unlocked bootloader? Magisk? Magisk Mods?

Yes, I unbloated a bit, very carefully. But I will recheck this.

Thanks, it seems I uninstalled at least one too much.
After reinstalling com.asus.hardwarestub, it is working again

Disable auto-rotate

I want to disable auto-rotate.
Where can I find it? From what I've read until now it looks like impossible.
But that can't be true! There should be a option to disable the accelerometer!
Any input is welcome.

At the moment there is no option for disabling auto-rotate. It is completely App/Developer dependent, and there is not option in the OS itself. I can't remember where the thread is but there's a GIANT suggestion thread on Microsoft's Support website, as people who use the phone lying down or on the couch will find the evils of Gravity annoying.

Some custom ROMs let you turn the sensor off from the settings page. If you're on a first gen or HTC WP7 then this is likely to be an option.

[Q] How to disable popup warning AFTER charging?

Hi,
I recently got a wireless charging receiver for the phone and now I get this annoying popup which says to close the micro usb properly to prevent water damage.
This happens also sometimes during charging in the middle of the night.
Can anyone tell me how to disable the popup? To make it clearer, it is not the flashing text that appears when the phone is connected to the charger. ( this can be disabled via xposed module)
The one I am talking about is more like a text with a white background picture.
"for protection against water damage firmly seal the charging cover before use"
Anyone else with the "problem" ?
I am on NEE-I9295XXUBMK2.
Thanks for the help in advance.
[edit]
this also happens when I disconnect the device from USB.
No one with this problem?

I second that!
I have found battery_cover_notice.xml in systemui\res\layout
There is an battery_cover_notice_image and an battery_cover_notice_message
The Pic is help_img_usb.png in folder systemui\res\drawable-hdpi
Now you can try and delete the battery_cover_notice.xml from the SystemUI

I tried and it worked ( at least the popup doesn't appear anymore) but I do not have a notification area at the top anymore. No clock, Signal or anything.
Perhaps it's because of the odex file? Didn't touch that.
I will try it again. Might be, I did something wrong.....
Thanks
okay thanks for feedback...
I will investigate this....
So is there no non-root way of disabling this?

I am.
No solution found so far.
Only I remember - that started after OTA update from Samsung in later 2013.
On original software I didn't have such warning.
Before and after is 4.2.2 Android, I didn't notice any changes, so I am lookiing for old firmware to download...
p.s. I also have wireless charger from "indiegogo"

No sorry
Cloud it be that this notice is a toast with a custom theme? You could check it with my app EnhancedToast, and hide it if it is a toast. Enable logging in the app and watch it.And yes, root is required for Xposed. Btw, the Google edition don't show it at all

^Mostly what I was going to say, so thanks.
You should check EnhancedToast if you can, and you could always switch ROM's - I'm loving the CM 10.2 ROM, which doesn't have the warning, and offers a lot of other advantages. If a notification comes up in the bar, long-press it and see if comes up with the "app info" button - it could be run through some sort of stock app that you could disable or uninstall altogether.
Hi everyone! I'm new on the forum and in smartphones as well. Rooted GT-i9252 last week. Starting to develop app in future.

Any good source to learn more of ROMs? What do I lose if I dump the original, what do I get with some other ROM?
How should I backup? Meaning there's lot's of data:
- contacts and messaging and that stuff
- pictures, music, videos etc
- OS (?)
- ROM
- Apps (downloaded and system)
Maybe someone could explain the best practice to backup ROM,OS and apps.
Thanks in advance, Kaptah.

What method of rooting your phone did you use? They are not the same thing, but it is possible to do them both at the one time. If everything looks different, then yes, you would have changed your ROM while rooting.

OK I've found the option but it's not the one I was looking for. This one seems to remove the message when you plug your phone to the power supply. Maybe I'm wrong. Anyway thanks a lot for your help.

This problem appeared/reappeared when i upgraded from 4.2.2 to 4.3 (ML2)
After rooting ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2690133 )
and disabling KNOXagent it still gives this warning, which it did not do after the 4.2.2 Active Root.
This is merely an annoyance but if someone figures out a quick way to disable it that would be grand.
i have this issue too. cant wait for a fix for this. just updated to 4.3 a few days ago and having to tap the bubble everytime is just annoying. why the hell would they add these rediculous notifications? its not like att or samsung will stand behind the "waterproof" claim anyway..... water damage weather the door is open or closed means your screwed no matter what.
I've personally tried using the "EnhancedToast" module for xposed and the prompts do not register as toast events. It has to be something else.

Change dp and text size?

Hello.
I have searched with no result.
My question is: can tasker modify the dp (not DPI) setting that is under developer options and the text size?
I want to do this before connecting the device to an external screen through hdmi.
I know that secondscreen app can be launched within tasker and can change resolution and DPI but that also requires an UI refresh. Is a little more complex than using the options that are in the system already.
Thank you.
There is quite a good chance you can do it through shell root commands if you read this shirt article

Is is the option you asked? If yes, then it's possible.
You can use Autotools Plugin to change it.
Hopes this help.
@Jakob1379, @aillez thank you for answering.
The problems is that my case is a non rooted device, so the most of those shell commands cannot be executed.
The text size is one of the options I want change, the other is not the display size. Is the "smallest width" (i think is called that way in English) under developer options.
I will try to find the setting and see if it can be changed with shell command without root.
Thank you.

Would suggest autotools as well and if that doesn't do the job, he probably has to resort to automating screen touch with something like autoinput

activating lastpass accessibility toggle

Is it possible to use tasker to switch on lastpass accessibility toggle? My OnePlus 3t (not rooted, OOS 9.0.4) deactivates it almost on a daily basis. I have switched off battery optimisation for lastpass but the phone turns the toggle off.
Use auto input
Ta. I'll check that out
Hi there. Maybe you can try using the "Custom Setting" action for that. Try using the Magnifying glass in the action with the option to automatically find the setting and see if Tasker can find it. Hope this helps!

I found that by googling but I can't figure out how to make it toggle the switch. The tasker forum talks about reading the accessibility setting but gives no more details than 'brilliant that works'

The easy way is to use the Secure Settings action in AutoTools. That has a direct option for accessibility services. I plan on adding that option to Tasker directly at a later date.
With the Custom Setting action what you should do is read the value, remove or add the needed service from the list, the write the setting.
Ta I'll test that

I must be missing something here. Autoapps seems to only control a subscription service. Can't see anything called secure settings when I download it.

That means that Tasker doesn't seem to be able to communicate with AutoTools. Do other AutoTools actions work?

Hardware Stub Services

Do we have solution to this warning sign aside from using notif cleaner? This is the result of Converting CN to WW Rom.. TIA
Would like to know this as well, I keep force closing the notification but it always comes back..
If you still rooted, install Notifications Off (root) from play store. Uncheck hardware stub service. Feel free to uninstall or restart the device. It wont bring that notification back.
Buy a global, problem solved.

Nice. I hope someone will share the process. I have read some fix but it says that it will ruin your refresh rate and it will be stuck at 60hz

refresh rate works fine but the problem we don't know how they managed to do it
This is what worked for me. When notification pops up...
. Click manage
. Select three dots upper right corner
. Show system notifications
. Select HardwareStub Services
. Click to mute notification and select one line for notification bar
The actual notification is still there after reboot. But you won't see it or hear it unless you pull down notification bar, then you will see it. But it's better than popping up automatically
I also have the Donate version of NCleaner and your able to hide the notification permantley under Premium settings.
If you have any issues with NCleaner not properly hiding notification after reboot. Check your permissions under app settings that everything is allowed
