Tap2wake - phone Apk crash

Hi all... I basically have two problems. First of all, I got the Z3C happily rooted... The problems are:
1- Tap2wake simply doesn't work, regardless of how I tap... fast, slow, super fast, thumb, index finger, etc... enable it/ disable it... same issue... refuses to work.
2- I use exDialer for my dialer... It works great (I've been using it for a couple of years)... the problem arises when I miss or reject a call. When this happens, Sony'x Phone apk (forgot the exact name) crashes. I have to acknowledge the notification of the crash and everything continues to work... strange ha?
Any ideas what can be going on? Thanks!
Carlos

Did you uninstall Xperia Home? That will cause the phone app to crash on calls as you describe.
I assume you have the option for tap to wake checked? Possibly you uninstalled something that it needs? Never ran into that particular issue.

Can't comment on issue #2, but T2W works flawless for me in 99.9% of the cases (with firmware .98).
Did you (now it might be too late) check whether both problems were there before you unlocked the BL?
What firmware version are you using?

Thanks.. Yeap. too late... already rooted...
Regarding #1, still doesn't work. Even after unfreezing Xperia home, which indeed fixes #2...
Thanks!!!
Carlos

so I've frozen some apps on the z3c, but I can't quite figure out which one controls the tap2wake function. I've tried the trial and error way (freeze/unfreeze), but can't narrow it down. Any of you have any ideas which apk controls that?
Thanks again!!

You can just turn it off in Display settings.

Thanks Kev. What I ment to say is that I want to be able to ENABLE it... I have it ticked on, but since I froze some APKs, it's not working. I wish to know if anyone knows which one is it to unfreeze it (if that's the case). I've tried but I havent been able to figure it out.
Best regards,

[Q] Anyone have any luck with an LED app?

I tried Light Flow but it doesn't work even when I set it up as direct. Does anyone have any luck with any other apps for LED control?

Light Flow works perfectly for me. Did you make sure to enable Notification access and Accessibility service?

Light manager works perfectly

Same. Works better on my Z3C than on any phone I've had.

I forgot to enable it in Accessibility. That did the trick for the most part. It won't overwrite the system LEDs when the screen is on and not locked. So for something like receiving a call it will never work and for something like on the charger it will switch back and forth between the system color and light flow color. Nevertheless, thank you very much.

If your phone is rooted you could try XLED it dose what your looking for

I haven't rooted yet given the issues with unlocking the bootloader at the moment. I'm sitting tight waiting for better ways to root as the phone becomes more available worldwide. Light flow does the trick for now but I'll be sure to check out XLED when I finally get root. Thanks though.

LG better fixes these issues in the Marshmallow build, or I am saying godbye to LG...

Touchscreen Issue: This thing has been persistent from the very beginning. After struggling for months, it has been mostly fixed with the last update. But double tap to wake is still a 50/50 chance, most of the time it's 4 taps to wake.
WiFi Issue: I have come across may complaint across internet about wifi issue for LG G4, ppl suggested several solutions but none really worked. Wifi connection suddenly drops, and also takes a considerable amount of time when waking up from sleep. It gets very annoying when I am on a voip or hangout call.
No it's not my router or my phone. Because it's the same on my home and work network, where other devices just work fine. Also I don't have any of those issues on CM12.1 rom. CM is quite nice on LG G4 but having to be using it on CM is not an option, as I lose the camera.
Besides I didn't pay the money to purchase a flagship device to use it on a different rom.
So, that's it. LG better fixes it on the Marshmallow, otherwise Good Bye LG.
Update: The WiFi is much better since I uninstalled Xposed. I am guessing that some xposed module had something to do with it. Can anybody confirm?
No change in the double tap to unlock though. Funny thing is that it works perfectly with CM.

Sorry to hear you are still having issues with your device. My only issue is the double tap to wake/sleep, but its something that I can live with. I never had an issue with wifi on any network, work/home/neighbors, ever.
Have you tried any of the roms supplied by our great devs or are you on stock?

I tried stock rooted debloated, also stock-based xtreme rom. Always having these issues.

Hmm..... Thats weird, My G4 has been runing good since I first purchased it in september..... Guess I got lucky.

I feel the ops pain, because I've had the WiFi issues a few times, and the tap to wake is 50/50 at best. I'm also growing tired of waiting for updates from LG or Tmo.

The poor 5GHz wifi support kills me. Only device in the household that has that issue. Other than that, though, I've been pretty happy with the G4.

I purchased my G4 a month ago and don't have those issues. Double tap works fine and my phone uses 5g WiFi at home. I wish you luck op.

As far as the WiFi is concerned, I have the same problem. Using WiFI Analyzer, I can see that all available wireless networks near me drop to 0 every minute or so, and then start back up. My wife also has a G4, and her device does not do that. I'm wondering if there was either a bad batch of WiFi radio chips, or poor connections to the mainboard for a group of these.

I think the tap to wake issue is because of that other stupid "feature" that I'm sure not a single person uses.
You know the one where when the screen is off, you swipe down from the top of the screen and it shows the clock? My phone often mistakes my taps to wake as swipes and tries to activate that instead (I can tell because the notification led comes on when that is activated).
Is there any way to turn that thing off? It is completely useless. It would be one thing if it showed the notifications but no it just shows the clock

I agree with you on... that is probably the case. A completely useless feature, which also doesn't work half the time.

Not sure if you seen in the g4 dev section there is a flashable zip for a camera now. I'll never go back stock.

It's your phone... Those problems don't exist for everyone.

Did you just root, or are you using other apps that uses root access? Did you uninstall or delete any system app?
It's very unlikely that rooting would break the camera. Try unrooting.. Super Su has the option to unroot in its settings. If doesn't work you may have to do a factory reset.

I rooted and installed wtrp, the first app I opened was snapchat and I was not able to open video snaps or make my own. I thought it was the app being supervised and I didn't check the camera app recording. I later installed apps for root like xposed installer to obtain snapprefs, but the problem continued to appear. After the download of a few apps and mods for root. I downloaded instagram and I was still not able to record videos. Finally I opened the camera and it was the same problem. I unrooted my phone and the video recording is working. I will root again and only test the camera app after root and after each app and mod I added before. I did try the factory reset and no luck.

Since you already got twrp up and running, I can try MicroMod777's stock rooted debloated rom.

Never had problems with my H811 even installed different ROMs from LP to MM and back. Never had hardware issues.

My only problem with the h811 is the stupid gps not shutting off and killing the battery, fixed by app ops

I'm stock everything and my notifications have basically just stopped working out of no where. I've tried every solution there is on the web to fix it except a factory reset - is this what it comes down to? Do I have to factory reset every few months just to keep the phone running normally? That's not really ideal.

Recently the screen in my N6 always turning on w/o doing nothing

Hi!
As i wrote, the screen just turning on without doing nothing.
I'm not touching...Only move it within my palms and the screen turnes on.
Anyone heard about that?
Your help would be appreciated.
Thank you!

It's called ambient display. Makes your screen turn on when the phone is moved after your screen turns off.
Basicly a replacement for the lack of a led light(talking non rooted non custom rom here)

OR.. it could also be an app, thats turning your screen on. there are many apps that do this, you should read your apps permissions.

Just turned off ambient display.
But...does it mean that now I wont get any notifications during phone at sleep?
Tnx!

Ambient display doesn't use much extra battery, it only illuminates the pixels its displaying and it keep the phone in a low power state.
It is your phone's stock visual notification system, so yes if you turn it off you won't get any visual notifications. If your phone is set to vibrate or make notification noises it will still do that. The phone does have an LED behind the speaker, so if you are rooted you can install something like lightflow to use your phone's LED for notifications instead/as well.

I don't use light flow, but I have heard of many having issues using that app. what I use is s ROM that allows for colored notifications, then I set my colors within the ROMs options. BTW, pure nexus ROM.

oh snap, I just realized this is the same guy who was posting in the lightflow tutorial thread and was told how to do it multiple times.
He does not have "run all commands as root" check in the settings, and insist its not an option. He just needs to go through the settings and enable that like the popup window when you first launch light flow tells you.
You gotta look through your settings man. I don't know what else to tell you, I don't use that app anymore but I have. And unless you go through all the options in the settings menu... The app isn't going to be able to write to the kernels file system to turn the light on.

Maybe I'll just flash the pure nexus ROM.
I just dont get how to use this App.
Tnx!

I don't want to sound mean but if you Cant figure an app out I don't think you should be flashing ROMs

You click settings.... Your looking for something to do with running commands as root.
Did you check under the "device settings and root" menu?

Does he even have the paid version of light flow?

He said in another thread that he bought it... but that doesn't matter. I don't and I used it via the options I stated to have LED notification for basic stuff.

I have a question regarding ambient display. I know how it works and all that stuff, however, how many time the phone wakes up with the black/white screen? Because mine gets a notification, it shows it to me then without doing nothing it shows the notification again and again, every minute I guess for a long time. Is this normal?

Yes thats normal. Just like a notification LED will stay on, Ambient Display will show every now and again until you acknowledge the notification in case you missed it. Again, it uses almost no battery to do this, I have used the phone with it on and with it off and never really notice a difference.

Letting u know that for some reasson i dono - it still just dont work.
Super wierd.

Enable Notification LED?

I've seen that it is possible to use the physical LED on the device for notifications if your device is rooted, but I have not had any success in getting it set up properly.
The closest I have gotten was an app called Moto LED Enabler, which worked at turning the led on when I got a notification, but it wouldn't turn back OFF when I cleared the notification.
I'm wondering if anyone has gotten this working perfectly and what app are you using?

Camera flash is WAY too bright, in my opinion. It's the kind of thing that pretty much would force me to interact with the phone just to turn it off. While with the smaller led, I can just see that its on, but I don't have to do anything about it if I don't want to.

Moto LED enabler works fine for me... Are you rooted via magisk??
The app constantly asks for Superuser rights to turn the led on and off.. So, check if your SU app is having issues maybe..

I'm trying it again, but behavior is same as before. Once it comes on, the only way I can make it turn off is by playing with the brightness control in the Moto Led Enabler app. I granted full access when it asked for root, doesn't seem to be any issue there. And its just doing weird stuff, like it suddenly turned on when I ended a phone call, despite no notification even popping up.

It kinda works for a little time, and then it crashes. Constantly there's a message popping up saying that moto led enabler has stopepd working. What exactly do you do to make it work?
---edit---
To stop it from crashing every five minutes all I had to do was open the app and fiddle witht the brightness slider and voilá, working like a charm.
