I already deleted data from the gallary/photos and video apps still no good. =(

did you recently changed to this phone? or recently added a bunch of photos to the phone?
first attempt takes awhile for the phone to load, and you are supposed to load all photos (in thumbnail view) then after that it should load pretty quick when you click on it.
if it still remains i suggest you try repairing it with SUS.

Removing the music bar and power settings from the top slider (notification bar)

Recieved my P990 yesterday. But I cannot seem to find the right application to remove to ditch the music bar and power settings from the notification panel.
Already removed the music application etc. (trough titanium backup with root)
Does anyone know what the application is called that shows this. Or is it in the rom and can't it be removed. (which mean I have to put the music app back to make it work and ditch winamp)
Open the musicapp and open the settings, there you van disable the player in the notification bar.
That only works if you didn't remove of freezed the music app. Unfreeze, deselect the option, the musicbar is gone. Freeze or remove the app, the musicbar is there again. I've tried it many times...

Music bar is managed by the framework.
It is on by default at boot but can be turned off by the Music app. If you remove the Music app it never gets told to "turn off".
Actually, in the framework it appears really easy to totally remove this functionality but will require a patch that I've not worked on yet, and it may require to remove the actual Music app to prevent force closes.
I might have a play with that this weekend.
Anything on the second question of topic?

There's no option to turn them off as far as I can tell but I think I can also remove that permanently... I'll look at that too.
Okay, so don't try and do this.
I just bricked my phone.
I'll need to wait for a mod/update or return it. Back to my Nexus One for the weekend it seems.

Don't (try to) replace framework-res.apk, that's what I learned...
How the hell do you brick a phone by replacing an apk? A brick is what the word suggests; A brick, paperweight etc. Surely you could replace the apk with ADB?

It's a paperweight.
I need a nv flash to replace the system.img.
The framework fails to load and a reset command is issued by the system as soon as it boots. I have adb access for less than 3 seconds before the phone restarts and can not issue a stop command before the reset command.
It's not that uncommon really.

Can't you issue the adb command and it will wait for the device to boot fully and then stop before the reset? Unless you probably already tried it. Best of luck man!

I want to know the exact same. Looked around in secret menu but there was no fix for it. Anybody else have any idea? The music app is annoying since it always seems to start up and sit in memory for no reason

Can someone please explain pictures and storage on the Nexus 6?

Hi All,
I got the Nexus 6 a few weeks ago and I like it pretty well though I'm having a hard time figuring out how to work it lol. One major thing I'm not understanding - it seems to have no picture storage in the phone itself that I can find. Is this correct? There's no "Gallery" or anything - all I can get into is my google photos. Which would be okay I guess except that not everything saves to Google Photos. For example:
Last night I took a picture with the camera app I use (Camera 360) and edited it in another app (don't remember which one - it was an in memory pic so I just needed to add some text). Anyways, I saved it and it said it was saving to the phone, however, it's not anywhere in the google photos. I couldn't find it anywhere. But then when I went to Facebook it popped up in my options to upload a photo. So it has to be saving somewhere!
I also have a lot of issues with photos from Camera 360, Instagram, FB, and other apps doing the same thing - they'll show in my FB options or if I click within the Camera 360 app on the preview area but they don't show in Google Photos or anywhere else on the phone.
Can anyone explain this to me please?
Thanks!

Did you set Google Photo`s to backup all pics and video`s in the cloud? Have you checked /sdcard/DCIM/Camera/?

No. I don't really use the cloud. I want to be able to access everything physically on the phone if possible but I'll look into that too.
I thought it didn't have an SD card slot so how to I check what you said at the end there? If there's no SD card then how would it be saving to an SD Card? Sorry... I'm not the brightest with this kind of thing.

Get a file manager from Google Play and look for /sdcard/DCIM/Camera and your pics etc should be there.

Okay thanks! So what do I do then? Do I just use that file manager going forward every time I want to access my pictures? What I'm trying to figure out is how I can view/display/transfer my photos going forward. Should I download a gallery app?

I actually had that on my last phone and liked it but there was a weird glitch on my old phone where it wouldn't let me delete anything. Even if I deleted pics from the phone gallery they would still show in QuickPic. Then if I tried to delete them in there it gave me a weird error. I could probably try it on the new phone again here though!
I did download the file manager and that seems like it will work perfect.

Isn't there is device folder at the left side of the menu in the google photo app. I usually find all the picture there, screenshoot and stuff like that.

Do consider backing it up to the cloud. That way, if your phone dies or gets lost/damaged, you won't be stuck trying to figure out how to recover your pictures. Google Photos app gives you unlimited storage for your photos (just don't choose "original resolution"). The photo/video will still be there on your phone, but will have a backup on the cloud.

Yes, I do the same. Tap the menu icon on the left side of Goole Photos App, and then tap "Device Folders",
This will show OP all the local camera photos in DCIM, as well as any screenshots/downloads, etc

Hmm. I'm confused. Maybe I do this and just didn't know it was called the cloud? Right now my photos from my last like 4 phones are in my "Google Photos" and I can access them all on any phone I've had, on the computer, etc. So they're already stored in Google Photos?

Go to photos.google.com and sign in with your google account. See if your photos are showing there. If yes, then you are good - they are being backed up. You can verify the settings in the photos app on your phone too - settings/backup and sync. Verify that it is on, and that upload size is high quality (or you can choose original - but that will not be unlimited)

Dialler app crashes

Hi guys. Hope you are all ok.
I have an honor 5c and sometimes I'm having this weird issue. Sometimes I try to call someone and when I open the dialler app it crashes straight away. It also happens with apps like settings. If I reboot my phone it keeps happening and sometimes it just comes back to normal.
I made this video when it happend last time, check it please to have a better idea of the issue.
Hope someone can give me a hand here.
Thanks in advance, guys!
You tried with some patch files earlier to enable something in your mobile ?
Do you face this issue after installing a specific app?
Try clearing app data.

Hi. The only thing that has patched my files is the root and xposed framework. It used to happen when I had the previous version of android for Honor 5c, i thought the update would sort the problem out.

I've tried that too but when it happens it doesn't allow me to open the settings app either.
Any ideas? As I said, it's like a set of applications stop working when it happens and it's just randomly!
In average I would say it happens once every two weeks and I realize it when I take my phone an try to call someone, then other people say that they couldn't call me during that period....

I had the same issue, with Settings at least, when I was rooted and trying out the Pixel Launcher with the app in to the /system folder to allow the Google Now feature to work. Settings would be fine sometimes after a reboot, not others. Going back to the "normal" Google Now launcher has never made it happen.

hi. Thanks for your answer. The bad thing is that it keeps happening, and I just upgraded the version of my firmware to the latest one (v130) and it happened again the other day. The only thing I haven't tried is to use the phone without rooting it. I haven't changed the launcher, so in my case that's not the problem unfortunately.
If anyone can think about any other cause :/
Hi !
It happened to me with dialer and settings apps.
Try to wipe cache and dalvik cache in TWRP.
Hey Poine45!
I did that, but it happened again :/. But I'm glad I'm not the only one.

Can you help with and install that app with adb, I don't know how to do it.
Not the same device and somebody else may have a better source but these guys gave me some info I wasn't aware of (plus is the first one I could come up with
://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/noob-read-adb-fastboot-how-hep-t2807273
I pulled the phone app off mine and replaced it with drupe to set if there was lost functionality. So far works pretty well, like the app had never used it before. I think my wife has the straight Google dialer for nougat on her n5, up pull it off there and give it a run. I never really used those other features so they never meant anything to me just duplication. If I want to message I message etc..
Teu downloading that file and the program win - zip says it will open those files. Haven't gotten inside it yet myself but I would think that being a regular apk if it is still slow you to install it the normal way
I had the same problem, AT&T is my carrier. I had to insert a T-Mobile SIM, open the contacts app and hot swap the SIM back to AT&T, at which point the phone rebooted and all was well.
There is probably another way to do this, as it seems to be related to video calling.
I Uninstalled my lg dailer to see if I could duplicate the issue. Got rid of that app and replaced it with drupe. Really like the way that app works but it seems that you can't use the dailer codes to access the hidden service menu without it. I don't use the video value so that means nothing to me, but those codes could be useful.
I've got a tgz file that I sent you but can't seem to open it up to extract that apk.
All you did was switch out SIM cards? That sounds odd to me, but I did notice that once the call is placed the LG dealer /call interface shows up but as soon s you end the call away goes the dialer
You know what all ths phone dialer exist in? I searched. For phone.apk found nothing?
you can take it by yourseld...extract the kdz of you model smartphone take the system img and open it with ext2explore, then explore the system image save it on you computer explore system image saved and take all your apk you need..save in your microsd and install..

Question Samsung Gallery Crashing when sharing a picture

How to fix gallery crash when sharing a picture from Samsung Gallery ?? i can share a video on whatsapp but cant share picture​
I already cleared the cache and Data Forced stopped.
but no luck still i cant share
Well, There are many possible reasons for your Gallery app problem. Some of the common ones inncludes:
Minor Gallery app bug
Corrupted system cache
Unknown software bug
Bad third party app
Incompatibility issue
Coding error
Therefore, you can restart the device is by pressing and holding the Volume Down button and the Bixby/Power key at the same time for 10 seconds or until the device’s screen turns on. This simulates the effect of having disconnected the battery from the device. If this works, this may unlock the device.
Or may be restart procedure tries to simulate the effects of removing the battery pack. On older devices, disconnecting the battery is often an effective way in fixing unresponsive devices. If nothing changed though, proceed to the next suggestions.
Hope that it's useful with you. Have a good day!

If the phone is rooted with twrp for example and encryption has been desabled during the rooting process it may be the cause of this issue under A11 or A12
Could be.In my case after a12 I did a heavy debloat like I usually do and the same thing mentioned above happened.
