[Q] Google Apps 'Syncing'

Hi All,
Got rooted and Market installed and working the only thing I'm missing its seems is some of the google services, namely Gmail, Gmusic and Chrome
Gmail - installs, says sync is not enabled and crashes
Gmusic - installs and works perfectly with local music, knows about my google account, but will not show any of he music in the cloud
Chrome - installs (sideload) and works fine but will not sync up and show other browsers tabs etc.
Is there some google 'sync' service I'm missing?
Stuff I've installed for google is;
GoogleLoginService.apk
GoogleServicesFramework.apk
Many thanks

From what I understand you have to install the apps again after the framework if you didn't do it in that order.

Thanks, I tried that last night - same thing.
Are there different versions of the framework floating about I wonder?
Has no one else seen this issue?

Yeah, and the GoogleLoginService too. I put them all into the /system/app. Unfortunately i ended up returning it to amazon today. The price point on the device is good. But it seemed very unpolished. Bluetooth headset would disconnect after 15 minutes of watching a movie, but stayed connected fine when listening to music. Web browsing was very slow. If i scrolled the page It would just be white and i'd have to wait 1-2 seconds for silk to render the page. Also my unit had some very bad light bleed, see image below. Not to mention i could never find the buttons (power/volume) I think i'm going to pay a little more and get a nexus, it's probably worth the extra money.

Hotspot quick settings toggle

Has anyone been able to get the hotspot quick settings toggle icon to appear? It showed up automatically on my N4 after I installed the lollipop update. So far, its not showing up on my N6. I've turned hotspot on several times but still no icon.
Google really needs to add a way to customize that menu.

Not sure why yours isn't showing up... the only thing I've changed which might be related is adding the following to build.prop
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
Hope this helps.

Mine didn't show up on my GPS Nexus 6 running on AT&T until I made this change.

I guess that's the reason then. I wasn't planning on rooting my phone but between this and the encryption, I might not have a choice. Thanks for the responses guys. I have no idea why Google would restrict that convenient button by default.

Thanks, the hotspot toggle showed up as soon as I added this to my build.prop.

I got mines once I turn it on without root and build.prop edit..

What do you have to do to have it normally pop up in quick settings? Is it supposed to show up after the first use?

What carrier are you on? Maybe that's the difference? I have been unable to get it to show up on both AT&T and Verizon.

AT&T and Verizon phones both check your subscription before allowing the hotspot and this is why the toggle doesn't show up on its own

That must be the reason since that check is what the build.prop change disables. I still think its silly that it affects the button though. My plan allows tethering. Can't I have the quick settings button and when I press it, it can check my subscription just like the deeper settings menu option?

OK Google detection options grayed out (sometimes)

On every rom I've tried so far, the OK Google voice command sometimes works from the lock screen, sometimes not. When I go to check the settings for voice control, the"Always on" and "Personal results" are grayed out and obviously I can't use OK Google from the lock screen. But then sometime later the options are back and no longer grayed out. It works when it wants to and I have no control over it.
Is this a known bug? Or is there some custom rom setting that's interfering with voice detection? Very strange.

I thought it depended on whether the device was charging or not

No it doesn't. The Nexus 6 has the always listening feature like the Moto X. It's just weird that's been broken on 3 different roms.

Anyone have an issue where the 1st time you initiate the okay Google command that it brings up an unsuccessful web search? I have to initiate it a second time and it works. If I uninstall the Google search update everything works fine. Only when I update it do I run into this issue.

try wiggling these toggles? might help?

Actually yes, I have done that. But it's only a temporary fix. I don't see why, after wiping my device 3 times, and it still keeps happening. When I switch roms, I make sure to do a complete wipe from twrp (factory reset, then advanced and hand select wipes except internal storage, then wipe cache and dalvik before reboot into new rom) I don't understand why 3 different roms have the same issue.
At this point, I'm so happy with Candy rom that I can overlook this issue, but it's just nice if everything would work as intended.

I'm on Tmobile. Don't have that screen. So maybe it's in the settings somewhere of your carrier?

Not on my Sprint variant.

Anyone has this problem or can suggest something? Anything? It's killing me.

You could start by providing more detailed information. What carrier? What third party apps do you have that relate to contacts/phone?
Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

My phone is Verizon but I use it with T-Mobile. I've looked up all the apps that has access to my contacts and draw over apps and didn't find anything unusual.
I use truecaller but that one has it's own notification.
The picture I attached in my first post shows what is really bothering me

I have Verizon and don't get this

Well finally after a lot of research and tracking apps I finally found what app it is. It's call (efing) reminder app. That is a part of bixby I guess.

Flashlight
Plagued me for 2 weeks and removed apps one by one. As others suspected, it was a flashlight app. It's gone now. App has an icon that several apps use, so I don't remember precisely which one. Not going to reinstall one to be sure. Light House Inc has this icon.

Its App Backup and restore. Uninstall that and the annoying after phone call popups are gone

Had same problem. After uninstalling app backup and restore, everything fine.

I also had same problem but solved it by uninstalling "Bestie".
I also double checked it again after installing and uninstalling again.
Hope it helps.

App backup & restore fix
Hey everybody. I came across this thread when I was trying to fix this issue on my phone. I saw that nopers said if you uninstall the app it will go away which I'm sure would definitely work. I wanted to keep the app tho so this is what I did:
Settings>Applications>App backup and restore>Permissions>slide phone and SMS off
This worked for me on Samsung Galaxy S7 so hope that helps anyone looking for a solution.

Can't get rid of Secure Folder notification

I have a Note 8, not rooted, running 7.1.1.
In my drop down notifications, I have an active notification from the Secure Folder app saying that an update is currently being downloaded in it, even though there isn't one. The notification shows 0 of 0 downloaded along with the arrow that shows an app being updated, and has been doing so since around 7am this morning. I have tried force closing the app, clearing the cache in the app and the phone, and restarting the phone, but the notification reappears. I have even gone into the app itself in the settings, and it says I have the latest version. 1.1.07.6 is the current version of it that I have.
How can I get this notification to go away?

Sorry can't help you, is that Zamastro flip don't?

That thing is indeed annoying. I usually get that, when there is an update to something that's within the folder.. One of those apps. It's usually chrome for me (until I disabled it). But more than likely, that's what it is..

I had this on mine this week. It was a secure folder update which would not download and install. I removed secure folder and reinstalled. Now it's gone.
