Hi for the last few months my device a note 4 on the Firekat v21 ROM (I just did a fresh install like 2 days ago) keeps having the screen timeout changing to 9 seconds and in the SQLite settings data base says 9999 what seems at random times and I don't know why.
It seems to be frequently on data (4GLTE) and when battery low but I have woken up with it changed when the phone was charging and on 100%.
I have deleted apps like Greenify and wakelock but it keeps happening and I don't use Xposed mods. I don't have any power settings on like in the device settings app.
I have check every app I can think of that can change screen timeout settings, like C locker (a lock screen app) but the Dev and myself looked at the logs and it didn't say it changed it. I have an app called Lockdown which basically puts passwords on your apps when trying to open them but I checked and don't see any settings like that.
I really don't think it is C locker or Lockdown because
1. It just started like 3-4months ago when I have use these apps for years
2. I have another device running those apps and nothing happening
Hopefully somebody could please help and give me suggestions what I could do to solve this problem to narrow more down like a way to see if an app changed a setting like a list I can view that will say THIS APP changed THIS SETTING.
I am sorry if this is not in the right section if it is not please let me know I could delete or have it move it.
Thanks in advanced!

Haha what? I have been root for like a year+ now but will check SuperSU don't think it has settings like that
I also had this problem and too many apps to go through and figure out the culprit. I just added a Screen on profile to Tasker with a screen time out of 1 minute. Problem solved.

Haha I'm the type that wants to find a real solution and a fix and if I can't find thats what drives me nuts lol..
So I gave up trying to figure out what was causing my screen timeout to change all the time. So I did a clean install today and using even less apps as before and so far whole day screen time out didn't change knock on wood/prays it doesn't happen anymore least gonna give it a few days to install some apps...
But even though screen timeout didn't change it looks like my internal storage wasn't writable? But I manage to fix it by this link

The main thread is getting over run with app complaints so i will update this thread with apps that DON'T WORK ONLY.
These aren't in the builds but arent bugs or anything else. They are just not there:
The camera button for H builds
Use K9 for Yahoo Mail if it doesn't work for you. others might work but this is what i use.
Landscape rotation in H
Astro works. wait 5-10 seconds and then press the back button. the pop up doesnt work so it shows a black screen.
wifi tethering now works
Now on to apps:
Toggle Settings(certain features)
Power Manager
Screen Crack
Any Clip Trial
SnapPhoto Pro
Useful Switchers(certain features)
Flashlight Apps
aNetShare(works on some?)
aHome Call list widget(causes frequent crashes)
Screenshot(for some)
iPing Pong 3D
Shake Awake
Scummvm
Klaxon
Wake Me
HideNSeek(0.93beta)
MyEbay

Chomp SMS(for some?)
Alarming!
Moov(if you try to just type from the home screen it will force close.)
Dark Keys
Steel(with the slide tab enabled the screen is dark. with in not checked the url is darkened out but the screen is bright and easily readable.)
chompSMS
RTM Tasks
ToDoo
NBA 2 Go
On the latest 4.5 w/ apps on SD:
What doesn't work for me is:
Sweeter Home
Toggle Settings
Power Manager
Screen Crack
Any Clip Trial
SnapPhoto Pro
Useful Switchers (can open but force closes if any settings are changed)
FastBright
iPing Pong 3D (black screen if you try to start a game)
Air Hockey (Puck and mallets do not appear)
Backlight!
Now I didn't try re-installing any of these apps since they could have gotten corrupted when I switched over and re-enabled my pre-existing EXT2 partition. None of these are too essential and with the way these Magic updates are coming I don't like getting too comfy anyway.
Cheers.

Air Hockey Demo works fine for me 5.0.2H apps and data on SD.
What does NOT work for me is Market.
Note: Presumably because of /data/data on SD, I had to clear the cache/data from settings->applications for a lot of apps before they could start without force closing.
Pacman doesn't work. You can't even download it.
The market is still working for 5.02H, but I understand it's not working for 5.01g as of today.
I am having a problem with Shake Awake. It always force closes for me with 5.0.2H.
I'm also having problems with Shake Awake force closing on every phone call. Also MyEbay isn't working - just a black screen until you press back and for a split second the screen comes up.
I'm on 5.02H
Scummvm also does not work
There is a "Cupcake" version available on the dev's website, it also force closes upon startup
HideNSeek (0.9.3 BETA, the latest) doesn't work using Haykuro's 5.0.2Hr2 port. It just crashes when you open it.
You can add Imeem to the list. I tried it in both H and G builds. The music never starts. It just gets stuck in an infinite loop loading the album art over and over again.
add Quickpedia to the list
neither working on H and G builds apps NOT on sd.
Google My Tracks sorta works. If you want to view all of the textual information for your track, it crashes. The GPS will lock on and track you on the map, and it will let you record, but you can't view the text screen.
I've found most GPS applications don't work. Anything based on Maps works, but things that read out data from the GPS like speed and log/lat info don't work.

The kernel for the builds is missing something called netfilter so it won't work on them. The next update will hopefuly have a fix for this.

None of the one thousand flashlights work, lol. Well, they work but won't make your screen any brighter like they did on the RC builds.

We all know they are a little unstable and using apps that aren't compatible makes it worse. This is not the thread or even the subforum for your complaints so take them elsewhere cause i dont want them here.

Hey guys,
Is anyone brave enough to test the full feature 1.5 build of Open Home Full? We know we can always find some brave ones here
It requires that you are running android 1.5 on your phone (aka Cupcake). This build has full supports of 1.5 widgets and also a good amount of stability and performance improvements.
We had not done a lot of testing on this build; also this build will expire in a month (5/30). If you want to test the latest and greatest, feel free to install and try this build.
*Remember safe mode is hold menu button when powering on*, if you see anything wrong, just enter safe mode and then uninstall it.
Do NOT install unless you are running android 1.5
Download the apk at
http://groups.google.com/group/openhome/files
I assume since I'm running the dudes build and it supports widgets it may work. I can always remove if necessary . This doesnt remove open home right? just a different version?
EDIT: it replaces the existing open home
Hmm, I was impressed with the demo of OpenHome when I downloaded it a couple days ago. I'll take a look.
downloading it now. I have just flashed the holiday cupcake build so I assume it'll work with this. I'll let you know.
So far so good. I am glad to have openhome back again in 1.5
I have added all widgets, and they all work as expected. Are some of these the 1.5 "stock" widgets? I assume so because i see 2 music widgets listed, one looks like your own and the other a stock one.
I'll let you know how it goes after some proper usage. great work so far though. thankyou.
oh, p.s .. Will this be a free upgrade for those who had previosly purchased open home full ?
Works well enough. I like it.
Normally use full edition but will keep this until it is updated.
Suggestion: How about that calendar widget from Haykuro's build so those with dude's builds can use it?
Using it. Works well so far. I'm an OH Full user too, will I have any problems going back to the market app when it gets updated/released?
Ps. Is there any way to add support for Jeff Sharky's weather widgets? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509729
Weather widgets ok here. Problem with battery percentage widget though

Hey guys i like the changes the menus are a little more intuitive now! Shame it doesn't seem to maintain your icons from older version, but weirdly kept my fonts theme etc - not sure if that qualigfies as a bug or not really
One problem i have found though is it seems to scrap folder icons the second you open bettercut again, not a huge problem but ....
BUGS!
I have almost 200 apps to SD so it's convenient to have my favorite "few" on the desktop. After I installed the new apk file... everything was GONE! Huge inconvenience! Then when I pull up the app menu I can watch them appear one after another like the app is doing a search for the installed apps. I also tried Picture Frame. It seems like it pulls up the Camera app, then the gallery. I selected my picture. Cropped it. Saved it. Then it went back to "select picture" again. Strange. Also... AnyCut Open Home Edition doesn't work. Definite bugs.
Other then that I love it. Thanks! Is this going to be in an update and when will it be available in Market? I purchased the full version months ago.

I don't think it has anything to do with bettercut because I don't have it installed and it still goes back to the default folder icons randomly, sometimes it comes back sometimes it doesn't.

Hey quick question, is there any way to add a 3d effect on swipe? Like when you swipe to left or right screen, screen shrinks and rotates as a 3d cube. That will be awesome dude, you can name the app something different and charge for it again because I know damn well people will pay for it. I definitely will.

The reguar widget works for me, but not his. It isn't even displayed as an option.
Trying it out on my new Magic
But it's not 'open' in any sense...
Really dissapointed in losing all of my icons on all 7 screens. Glad that "real" widget support was actually added in. Almost went back to dxTop because of this. Please make the full version available on the market as an upgrade to the old full version. It would be nice to make it detect the old settigns and import them in.
Hey guys.. uhh i accidentally set my home to default instead of open home.. any help would be appreciated!

Just kidding. You deal with it the same way as if you would set the defaults as any other app. Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>Home>Clear defaults.
Been using this app for a few days now.I havent ran into any problems with it pretty smooth.Only down side was losing my icons.But no biggie.
Hi,
I have installed Cm 10.1 advised by @jcsullins using his great tool Touchpad toolbox to have stable ROM as it is for my 4 year old. as I am away i cant see it myself and set it up. I guided my wife through phone and she was able to install all. It is working perfectly. I just need to know is their any where in CM 10.1 a setting to create profile or restriction so that My 4 year old don't delete thing and go to settings ?
Thanks for your help
There is this app on Google play http://babyturtleapps.com/apps2.html the link is for there Website incase you don't have an android device with you.. Child lock comes as a lite version l guess to try out with ads and limited to 4 apps or pro which removes ads and app limit for £1.20. The reviews seem good.
I hope this helps.

I know about apps and most of them i tired sux big time, either they have too much add or limit the app to their own apps or they are so heavy that they slow the tab down.
But I saw that a lot of tab devices have a built in feature to create profile to lock acces to settings and all apps, that is why i asked if CM has such feature?

I'm not familiar with any parental controls but have you tried a Lock app? Something like LockIt? I can't post a link.
I'm using Nova Launcher with One More Clock as my Clock\Weather widget. I've noticed that the widget does not update the time regularly - i.e. it'll stop updating after some time and it seems to be fairly random. Once it stops, I have to refresh the widget in order for it to update again. I've tried a couple of other widgets and the behaviour is the same, so I'm pretty sure it's not the widget. I've also gone and ensured it is a protected app, but still the non-refresh behaviour continues.
Anyone have any suggestions or ideas? I don't see it with the stock widget on EMUI...
That happens with emui launcher too. All widgets which are not stock stop updating after a certain amount of time.
Works fine for me. Make sure the launcher and the apps are "protected" in the battery settings. If you want regular android behavior just hit protect all in that menu. This allows apps to keep running and update while the screen is off.
The battery saving options are turned on by default with this phone. Under settings/apps/advanced you can also allow apps to ignore battery optimizations.
If you are rooted you can also just freeze the phone manager and powergenie all together to get stuff to update etc (that's what I did)

I've done everything you mention except rooting the phone. I want a phone that works without rooting, so I guess the P9 isn't really suitable for me. Too bad, as the hardware and general design of the phone is really good, but EMUI really lets it down. Additionally, I'm not happy with the software update strategy for it either. I'm on build 134 for the P9(EVA-L09) and I've seen builds 136 & 152 in the wild for my device variant and geography, but there seems to be no update for my phone. And I have the green garbled images for a lot of the photos that I take, for which I've been waiting on a fix.

I had this issue on FutureRom which i guess waa based on l09.. reverted back to my L19 and the issues don't exist.. might be a buggy PhoneManager is to blame..
But why if you don't mind my asking? I've never used non rooted or non jailbroken phones. You get some nice additional features for free. Every company had phones with broken updates or other issues, if you wanna take things into your own hands and not be dependent on them, you know what to do
Wow that became quite the speech. Sorry :angel:

Protected under battery settings + ignore battery optimizations under "Apps" wasn't enough, but when I also changed CPU from Smart to Performance it seems to be working. I also re-added the widget on the homescreen afterwards to make sure settings worked.
what should I do on kitkat?
I recently bought the Honor 10 Lite and everything, from its looks to the performance has impressed me. However, I noticed a very frustrating issue with the "recent apps" function. Every time I try to switch to another app from the list, it reloads all over again instead of opening it in the way it was left.
I did my research and found that tons of other users using EMUI 9.0 or above are facing this and it is happening due to Memory Management. I found and tried all the alternative solutions like lowering the screen resolution, changing the "App Launch" settings to Manual in the battery options, disabling the apps from the "Battery Optimization" settings from the Special Access menu etc. but none of it works. Some have also mentioned to Disable or Uninstall the stock launcher to get back to the Oreo style Recent App card list as a solution. But I am scared to do that, as it can affect the future updates for sure.
It seems like our phone's forum hasn't been quite active so far. Its obvious as its a new device and people are yet to find and talk about issues here. Anyway, there is surely a memory leak which is causing all this. The remaining memory is always below 1 gb which is unusual in a phone with 4 gb of RAM. And it is due to this, the apps are being reloaded in the Recent Apps list to free up more RAM! I really hope Honor will look into this and find a solution in the upcoming update!
Please share your opinion or help out if you are facing the same too. Thanks!

I have an Indian version of Honor 10 Lite. And I am using a different launcher already. So you are saying, I can disable or uninstall the stock launcher and the updates wont be affected? You sure?
I wrote about this to Honor India's official page in Facebook before few minutes. And their reply was quite typical. They wanted me to turn off the android system and transition animations to free up the ram and stuffs. I clearly told them that this was a memory management issue as others described it. But they gave me this irrelevant reply!
I just bought this phone. I mean its just been 2 days. I really dont wish to regret my decision now. The recent apps keeps reloading every time I switch them. Its ridiculous!

Yeah, thats what I said too. I am using another launcher apart from the stock "Huawei Home". I have not disabled or uninstalled the stock launcher yet. Shall I do that? That is what i am asking!
A lot of people have said that uninstalling the stock launcher will free up a lot of RAM and also enable the Oreo styled recent apps card list which will solve this app reloading issue!
I just contacted the Huawei customer care and a lady advised me to record the whole issue and send the video to their service email address. I have shared this EMUI 9.0 issue faced by others as a feedback to them too. Hope they will fix this in the upcoming update!

Hey,
I can confirm this. I've got a model having 3 gb ram. I am using Microsoft Launcher and deactivated everything related to battery to test it out.
1. Closed all my apps via recent apps
2. Then I opened a folder in ES Explorer and went back to homescreen.
3. I went into gallery and watched a video for 60 seconds, back to homescreen.
4. I went into Facebook and read an article for 60 seconds.
5. Going back to Es Explorer (No matter via Homescreen or recent tabs) makes it reload completely.
This definitely is not related to not having enough RAM.
I also can't deactivate my Huawei home, it is greyed out. Right now i am seriously starting to hate that phone.
Alright I got it working more or less by uninstalling Huawei home via adb. it's not perfect (3-4 keep open mostly), but with the switch to card style in recent apps it finally feels not as sluggish as before anymore.

Remove battery saving mode or some apps automatically optimized by phone manager or other solution is to keep that app in app assistant or game mode. UI is made for battery optimization and ram management otherwise you have got stock android
I have this problem too! It's so annoying. The phone is perfect besidd this problem
