Upgraded to Marshmallow: reminder apps not working anymore - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As per title since I upgraded my SM-N920C every single alarm reminder app I have tried so far is not 'waking up' and sounding when a Google Calendar reminder is due.
The device is not rooted, deep sleep is OK and I remember I had that issue a couple of times with Lollipop (it got self fixed without doing anything...).
Please help. [emoji20]

Hi ,
Firstly ,i am still on Lollipop ,Android v5.1.1
When i had similar issues quite some time back ,i went to stock Smart Manager ..and turn that paticular app off (.from optimization .)
I believe Marshmallow has something similar..Doze or still Smart manager . or granting of Permissions ,( when installing an app .)
Also most probably you did not you grant app permission " Always run " or something like that .?
Logic tells me , app is not waking up , its been kept in a sleep mode ?
Just remember ,
i am not on Marshmallow,so i cannot say/check ,( for sure .?)
Good luck

Thanks for your support, but I have disabled Smart Manager app optimisation already and I got no permission request while running those calendar apps.

Go to Battery > Battery Usage and hit the 'More' button. There select 'Optimise battery usage' and disable any app you want a notification from. It's probably Doze that is keeping your apps from waking up.
Unless you have some other task killer running and killing them...

Thanks however I can't go into that section right now as it force closes (issue probably related to Debloater).
I will try that as soon as I sort that other issue!

Guess you disabled the Smart Manager app (it was in your previous post, but i thought you just disabled the 'app power saving')? Enabling that again should do it.

No the fact is that I disabled some packages (mainly KNOX stuff and others) by using Debloater when I was running Lollipop.
Now that I am running Marshmallow no matter how many times I try to re enable them they still remain disabled...
About Smart Manager I didn't disable the package, I just switched it off.

hi ,
I had a similar issue on my old rooted Note 4 ,
disabled apps in stock Apps manager ( instead of freezing apps with my Titanium app )
After flashing another updated Rom ,the relevant apps were still disable .!!
As far as i can remember , i had to do a full factory reset and flash Rom again .
(Factory reset alone did not help and doing a dirty flash also did not help )
Very frustrating issue .
good luck

Yeah I did a complete wipe and factory reset too (I actually had to otherwise every single app kept crashing under Marshmallow), but I won't use custom ROMs because I want to keep the device unrooted (using payment systems and others).
I strongly hope to solve that issue 'cause I am not known for having a good memory. :shy:

OK I *might* have found out that the cause is that under Marshmallow you HAVE to enable notifications in the stock calendar app otherwise third-party ones won't work properly!
The funny thing is that it's working great and you don't get double notifications (stock+third-party apps) at all.[emoji38]

[q] lollipop + galaxy gear

I'm sure many of us have updated our phones to Lollipop and lost the capability of using our Galaxy Gear. I used the Galaxy Gear app with the gearstub replacement method, and now it does not work.
Did anyone find a fix for this???
I really want to use my gear again without going back to KitKat. :crying:
Does that only count for the Nexus devices who received Lollipop already ?
Or also for Galaxy devices ?
I have the option to upgrade to Lollipop on my Galaxy S5, but ofcourse I want it to work with my Gear 1.
When it doesn't work (yet), I'll prefer to wait untill it works.
So did someone with a S5 already update to Lollipop and can tell if the Gear 1 is still working ?
Ok, I've installed Lollipop on my S5 and it even works with an older version of Gear Manager (for full notifications).

HI, what version?

But when you install it, remember to put your phone in airplane mode.
Let is finish installing and then open the program.
Enable all the notifications you want including preview.
When done, take phone out of airplane mode and it will ask you to update.
Don't do that and you should be fine

[Q] Home restarting problem

Before update to kitkat, I never had this problem.
But since updated I face the problem that when I press home the launcher keep restating, like a famous issue that happen to Galaxy S3
The cause of this is RAM is run out of space. I tried limit numbers of apps but it is still happening. Factory reset isn't work either.
Has anyone faces this problem too ? and is there anyway to fix this ?
Flashtool and make a fresh install, but be sure to save all your data on Pc, or make a backup with recovery
Already done that. Still the same.
Have you flash your specific model baseband, with a official rom?
Can you post more info about your phone model, baseband, bootloader, etc?
Im experiencing the same problem all the time... I just taught it was because i have tons of root stuff and Xposed modules and such... I havent done reset due im waiting for Lollipop, but yeah good that im not the only one !
Facing same problem and feels like that since installing a lot of stuff, and perhaps exposed too

It's a very usual behaviour from Android, because LMK too high or you use too much RAM for Foreground Apps.
To fix that, you have 2 ways:
1. Change OOM Priority via service.jar or change LMK
or
2. Using Xposed Framework, install App Settings and choose Home and tick Resident, save
Hope it's help you

Done, seems ok now, ill report if it starts restarting again !
I'll give his a try too, looks good
has been working for over a week now ! thank you !
Are there any bad side effects, of using xposed app settings module to keep these things resident in ram?

Yeah, if your home crashed you will always have a blank screen, you must force close it or replace to another launcher app or deactive Xposed Framework

I'm using the last version and everything is ok.
Maybe you should try to wipe data of the app.
SM-N910C cihazımdan gönderildi
please look at my screenshot ...
Works fine here!
Works fine, maybe your sensor has broken?
Did you freeze or delete any bloatware?
My phone isn't rootable (well, it is, but it resets after reboot. Thanks a lot ATT), but I can disable apps. I had something similar to the screenshots when I disabled something, but can't remember what it was. It was something that ended up controlling the heartbeat sensor though.
So if you debloated, you need to defrost things one by one until the Measure button comes back. If you deleted, then you can only reflash your firmware.
This is the only help I can provide since no one else is having your issue and you didn't tell us what you've done to your phone.

the problem happened after a updated my shealth today !!
my sensor is ok and im using official n910H ( latest version) ROM . why after i cleared shealth data and restart , spo2 and stress feature has gone ! samsung locked some feature on some model . shi**** why doing this !! samsung sucks with this kind of updates...
Happened to me before, then I realize it's the CSC's fault. Some CSC disable's some S-Health features (THL for example) so you might need to change your CSC into something else.

How is this samsung's fault exactly? The official version for Sweden is the n910F, not n910H, so you have basically bought an unsupported phone and are crying because samsung limits some features in some firmwares for certain versions in certain regions.
when i buy a phone , i just need support
what is the difference between people ???? why should some of them have some feature and some of them not when they all bought same phone ? Im sorry for you ...
anyway , i had to use xposed module and Global shealth intead

Probably because of laws that prohibit Samsung from giving users inaccurate information (risk of being sued). Don't get it either, but as someone else already said just flash the correct csc for your region and you should be fine (no ota updates though).
If you have xposed framework there is a module called globalshealth, that will get them back, dt some messed up laws, in some regions samsung has disabled the HR sensor since they are not marketed as medical devices and should have an FDA approval to measure vital signs (as i said,some fu**ed up laws)

System UI (or Launcher) keeps auto-restarting after a while

Is it only me or something wrong with LP? After upgrading to LP 5.0.2 (using Flashtool), System UI (or Launcher, or something else, I'm not pretty sure) just keeps auto-restarting after a while. The screen just becomes blank, moment later application icons show up. Applications seem to be reloaded (e.g. keyboard is loading for a moment before it shows up). It was working pretty nice before (KK).
Any help?
For the record, I'm using C6903 14.5.A.0.270 CE rooted, locked BL, odexed (original stock downloaded using XperiFirm). Also got xposed 3.0 alpha4 installed with following modules: Disable Desk Dock, Greenify
This is a bug on z1's lollipop
Best solution is to backup ur ta and unlock bl and install cm12.1

C'mon is there any way else? I dont really wanna unlock bl and install custom roms. I know some custom roms are really nice but i'd rather stick with stock
any help?
I have the same problem, doesnt happen on kitkat tho
Anyway, i dont expect it to be fixed, the z1 never been good at multitasking
I'm using Z1 (C6903 270 TW FTF) with del useless APP + Xposed Work fine NO issue
Because of high lowmemorykiller value, launcher and UI will restart frequently. You can try to flash init.d tweaks to adjust your lowmemorykiller value, and it will solve your problem.
Hi,
I suggest you trying at least a custom launcher with Lock In Memory feature. I was facing this issue and it was really becoming annoying, then I installed Xposed Module to do a small fix on Lollipop Memory leak (if you don't mind rooting it's a great option). And installed NOVA Launcher with hat feature.
All the best,

So u mean the xposed lollipop memory leak fix could solve the problem? but i heard that Z1 Lollipop stock already included this fix? mine already rooted and got xposed installed so I won't mind getting that fix if it solves my problem.

You're lucky then
@boydzethuong
1. For LMK> use 3C Toolbox from Play Store, set Android OOM at aggresive mode and enable set on boot (not init.d).
2. For launcher> use App Settings Beta, search it @ app Settings thread, used for Lollipo, not L 5.1.1
Enable resident for your current launcher and reboot.
memory leak has been fixed in 5.1. I'd wait it out til 5.1 is rolling out on the z1. can't take that much lunger 'til then. couple of weeks max (i hope)

OK, so to summarize, just like u guys I am having trouble with memory leak, which people said a fix had already been included in sony stocks BUT it didn't really fix the issue at all. correct? Then i'd go with: wait for 5.1
For those who are using xposed, yesterday I was about trying to uninstall xposed to see if I had any luck getting rid of the issue. However, I found a new version (v70) so I decided to flash it first then clear davik-cahce... and you know what... it seems to be working normally now. No lowmemorykill so far (yet?). Will pay a few more days see if it somehow solves the issue. You might wanna give it a try.
Cheers

Google Play Services has stopped?

Hello, I've been having really infuriating severe crashes from google play services almost every minute, and also crashes for Chrome/Google App when I use them.
They've been worse since the latest update.
I'm on Decent Rom (was the same on Dr Ketan's), SkyHigh v3.4, using Xposed with Wanam Xposed, greenify and Amplify.
Silly question, but have you tried a factory reset back to the base rom and then adding new elements, e.g. new Kernel, exposed etc one by one to see which causes the problem?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
same issue. please let me know if you find a fix
Make sure you are not restricting 'ICING' on Amplify.
