MM 6.0.1: "Screen Overlay" - Pulling My Hair Out!!!

Hi,
I am having a major issue with Marshmallow 6.0.1 on my Rooted N910T and it's driving me nuts! I'm totally new to MM and I have no idea how to handle this, or if it even can be handled.
This is a new phone for me, that was fresh and I updated to MM using Samsung's ROM, Rooted it and have PhilZ Recoveey on it.
After I install apps that need access to my Storage (or some other things), like for example "OfficeSuite Pro", which needs access to my Storage, a message pops up when I open the app, telling me it needs that access. So I tap "Allow".
Then another message comes up that says; "Screen Overlay Detected" and it tells me that I have to turn it Off. So I tap "Open Settings".
Then it takes me to a list of apps that each have an On/Off switch and it says; "Apps that can appear on top" at the top of that screen.. And sometimes I can move the switch, sometimes I can't. But whether it's already in the right position, or I can move it there (and I've tried both settings) makes no difference.
I.e., it still does the same thing when I go into the apps and so in this example, I still can't access my documents.
May I please humbly request, does anyone have any idea what's going on here and how to hopefully fix it? I would be so amazingly grateful!!!
Thank You!

If you have a screen color changing app like Twilight or F.lux running, pause it and run whatever you want without overlay bother. When you're done with your app, resume your color changing app.

If you have root+xposed installed you can grab ( disable screen overlay warning ) module and activate it. You can get rid of it permanently.

Enable New Dark Mode setting for Google Phone (it's beta, but usable) - Root required

Hey everyone, I did a search and didn't see a quick guide posted about this so I thought I would write one up with some pictures real quick.
Pre How To Notes:
* the usual I am not responsible for your device, if you mess it up its on you etc etc. Make a back up or have an apk ready.
* I have only tested this on the v30= but im sure it will work on all devices running Google Dialer Beta 24.0.214850721 ( https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...gle-phone-24-0-214850721-release/#description ). I am part of the Dialer beta and was not pushed the beta 24 release, so I had to manually update it to this one. The needed setting do not exist in beta 23.
* I am using the following 3 Magisk modules - Google Dialer and Contacts for OP5 and/5T - Android 0 Apt x libraries - Pixel Experience. These may or may not effect anyones ability to enable these features, but since I am going to post and run I figured it was easier to say such now than find out tomorrow that noone could replicate it and this is the reason why.
* I just saw @syndre post a magisk module for the dialer and contacts that is version 24. May or may not work with that, and maybe if you all ask super nice he will make a second magisk module that has dark mode enabled since I have never made a magisk module and wouldnt know where to start.
* You must have "Preferences Manager" installed from the play store (or wherever i guess) in order to do this. ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.simon.marquis.preferencesmanager&hl=en_US )
Ok so its fairly simple.
How To enable Dark Mode on Android Dialer
1) Open Preferences Manager (make sure it has root priv) scroll down to "Phone" app and select it.
2) Scroll over to dialer_phenotype_flags.xml and find the setting G__enable_dark_mode_setting and switch it from "false" to true
3) Now find com.google.android.dialer_preferences.xml and find the setting for display_options_dark_mode and switch that one from 'false' to "true".
4) Close out, force stop google dialer, reopen the dialer.
5) Go to dialer Settings, and select Display, then check Dark Mode - Enable.
Boom, you're done. Its a little buggy but it works and I havent had any issues.
Let me know if you have any questions

:good:I just replaced dialer in Pie with the modified version!! Dark theme is awesome at night, Thank you!! :highfive:

the extra app isn't urgently needed for editing the xml files these files are stored in
/data/data/com.google.android.dialer/shared_prefs
and can be edited with a simple text editor capable of root rights.
thanks for finding and sharing :good: merci

No problem and Thank you @seadersn .
I was originally going to get into a whole additional paragraph or two of alternative methods to enable the necessary flags but decided to just use Preferences Manager as the example because it seemed like the most foolproof and easiest way for any level of user to accomplish the necessary steps.
And I figured that anyone with more advanced capabilities would spot what was being done overall and could accomplish the changes however they were most comfortable performing them (your post of course being a prime example of it accomplishing just that)

Just taking a quick look it looks like those files have too much personal information in them for me to just straight-up replace them completely with a module. I think that one line of the preferences file needs to be edited by hand somehow by anyone this right now until the implemented fully. I changed the one line showing in the screenshot and notice there was a toggle switch in the dialer app now, switching that makes it look like the third screenshot. I can't use it like that, lol

Thanks for this!

Can't get this working on my rooted lg v30. When I open preferences manager I have to show system apps to see Google phone. Then I have to scroll right to find data_rollout_dark_mode and set to true. Then scroll right again to display_options_dark_mode and set it to true. Force close app and no option for dark mode in display options when I open it.

I kept picking at it, and eventually edited the correct strings. I've got working dark mode.

the new v25 magisk module containing newest dialer version does indeed look good with dark mode just tried it again, it looks much more better than in the last version. i think next version will contain it officially, there's a new "__data_rollout__DarkMode.EnableDarkModeRollout__launched__" bool.

Yes, that's the version I'm using. I agree, I think the dark version looks very nice. I'm a fan of darker themes.

Widgets not opening associated apps

I have a very nice new K20 Pro direct from China. Because I'm not a big fan of MIUI, I'm running Action Launcher. My only problem is with widgets: I can place them, they function as normal (updating automatically and on touch, or playing - Pocket Casts - etc). But the associated app doesn't open on tap. Not on a single widget. I've granted all the apps all the permissions I could find, de-restricted battery on those apps, allowed apps to start other apps, all to no aviail.
I thought maybe it was something to do with Action Launcher, but it does it with Nova Launcher as well, which suggests it's a MIUI thing.
It's a little bit annoying - such a simple thing! Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

It's definitely a MIUI thing. I had the same when using Evie Launcher. For me it worked for the first couple of times after installing the widget, then stopped altogether. I found MIUI is very aggressive at killing backgrounds processes and services and so put it down to that. I never managed to found out how to fix it. But as soon as I could unlock the bootloader I've been on GSI ROMs and haven't looked back. Everything works fine again now.

It has to do with the app permissions, I had it too and I fixed it
Try to give it permission to start in background.
That seemed to fix it for me.
Oh and in developer options, I also scrolled down all the way, and turned off MIUI optimization.

Thanks, I did all of that. As best I could, they don't make it easy to find these things! No change. Anyone else?

Solved - somehow!
So it started working. Widgets open apps on Action launcher.
I actually switched MIUI Optimisations back on in Developer options, as this allows you to access more permissions, and I made sure again that Action Launcher has every permission granted to it. It now asks every time I open any app for the first time if it can do so, and I think that was what was holding it back before. Also made sure there was no battery restriction on the launcher itself. So now the phone is functioning as it should, and I can enjoy it fully.
Edit: And I also gave Action Launcher accessibility access...

Same here
I've just come across the same problem. For me it was the option 'Display pop-up windows while running in the background'. that had to be enabled for the app in question.. Apparently the last system update either disabled this for all my widgets or introduced the feature in the first place.

der_faebu that did it for me, thanks.

Well I figured out the solution:
Go to settings --> Installed apps --> Permissions --> Additional permissions and then Allow 'Start in background' for the apps which are not getting opened. No way to do this for all apps in one click though....

MIUI.EU have some suspicious activities on my k20 pro

I have recently installed miui.eu on my phone and for some reason i opened my privacy manager and saw this, i was astonished by this,
My device was automatically screen recording and i see no recordings in the recording app.
The timings of app opening are exact same as opening my banking and social media apps (maybe!!, Most of them are so a innocent guess).
I guess i need to go towards some stock android roms. If i am wrong don't bash in comments please explain i will understand. Thank you
EDIT:
1. Yes i disabled the screen recorder many times after this but still saw same results then i took the screenshot
2. No, I had no tiles in my control centre as screen recorder, I had removed all the unnecessary quick tiles.
3. I switched to evox for now and maybe wait for a global stable miui 12.
EDIT 2:
1. The service/app was started only when i used the phone and never when it was on sleep. (Maybe deepsleep/automatic app killing)
2. I disabled the app and it was still in use. (makes absolutely no sense)
3. I respect all the hardwork from the developers, staying up day and night for making these possible (miui 12 eu), I maybe wrong but will wait until some clarification.
4. Sorry devs and Thank you for your hardwork.

And all other apps that needed the autostart permission was denied by privacy manager but this app is allowed every single time.

You're scaring me[emoji102]

Okayyyyy I just had a look too, same as you eu.miui and the list is even longer. This is kind of...strange.
Just to add force stopping doesn't work even with autostart off. It seems to show 'started by system ui' every time I open discord or telegram which is very worrying. I think in the meantime until we get some answers to this I'll go a stock android custom rom too.

Go settings, apps then screen recorder or hold down the icon and tap app info.
You're looking for app behaviour it should be the 4th option down.

Also happening in MortalOS, maybe a miui12 thing

It does open randomly, doesn't open specifically for banking apps for me. I think it's got to do with its quicksetting or something but I don't think it's recording anything

It launches because you've Screen recorder tile on QS tiles, that's why it's on App behaviour. It's not a bug and issue, System UI have to check tile state and must interact with app directly for that. It's not an issue at all.
You can remove Screen recorder tile and should be fine.

What about the other apps that autostart by themself where I already set them to not autostart.
In my case I'm just opened the telegram but some of my apps autostart by themself even I already set them off. Even the mail apps that I never open
Is that normal?
The screen recorder already disabled by now

Disable what you don't use, also I think system apps are able to bypass permissions. The rest of the apps that you showed appear to have had their permission denied though

I got the same story on mix2s. I have rolled back to miui10

EDIT /Update :
1. Yes i had disabled the screen recorder many times after i saw this for the first time but still saw same results then i took the screenshot.
2. No, I had no tiles in my control centre as screen recorder, I had removed all the unnecessary quick tiles.

Smae issue with masik, it even shows 3mb data used. Can anyone dig into these roms and see if spyware is installed

The issue might be related to Gausian blur / which is triggering gausian blur .. when you are accessing the control centre
to check : do one thing.. change your notification style to old one and see ..
i once tried IOS control centre, to show blur it used to ask some strange permission, and cast symbol used to activate when ever that blur comes active ..
so i think.. : bringing down control center, might trigger gausian blur, which is related to screen recorder ( somehow) .

Permission denied after I saw strange behaviors.. What will happen if they were autostarted and has the permission. It's a disaster.
I hope it's just a bug
See this Dropbox behavior
Launch by a file.. And I don't even touch the Dropbox apps before
How it could be?

You probably opened a file, either way I think it's just paranoia and normal behaviour that would happen on any android version, only difference is that it is logged
Edit: I'm exploring this feature a little bit more, apparently it logs when apps try to autostart and notifies even if they are denied. Looking at your screen you denied autostart permissions for Dropbox for example. Your concern if I understood correctly is that "files" app launched Dropbox, that is because the privacy feature also logs what process launches the app, so for example if you interact with a newly downloaded file and Dropbox is somehow required to view it or sync or whatever the files app is gonna request the Dropbox app to launch. This also explains why disabling autostart for screen recorder doesn't work, that is because it won't start on its own but other apps (system UI) still can, if you are super concerned about privacy regarding the screen recorder you can use ice box to freeze it or uninstall via ADB. However it's probably because it's integrated with the system UI service to some extent and it periodically starts it if it goes out of ram, the privacy log feature records everytime it is launched in memory.

Question Hide app feature not working

hi, I'm trying to enable the "hide app" of ColorOS 11 on my Oppo Find X3 Pro (global).
I can correctly select apps to hide, set up the access code (for example #1234#), but after that the apps are still visible on drawer and homeage. And if I digit the access code on the launcher, nothing happens. I suspect the features is not working because I have google dialer and not the oppo one so maybe the feature to manage the access code is not implemented there.
Do you have any clue on how to fix this? or does the "hide app" works in your phone?

This moment...when you are trying to hide Tinder from your GF ◉‿◉
Just kidding ofc xD
On my phone it works flawlessly - i have an oppo dialer.

Hi. Did your phone come with oppo dialer?

actually it was my fault... I forgot the golden rule of IT
Just rebooting the phone (I didn't reboot after activating the hide app feature, but it was not specified in the instructions) made the hide app feature work.
The only minor glitch is that on google dialer, after I enter the access code #xyz# and the hidden app menu opens, next time I open the dialer it still has the access code visibile and I have to manually delete it.

actually this problem is not solved. After each reboot it works flawlessy, but after some time (maybe 1/2 day; I don't know exactly) it stops working. When I enter the access code on dialer, nothing happens, until next reboot. I suspect the issue is related to ColorOS policy to kill/suspend apps (maybe the one that manage hidden apps is suspended), but didn't found any way to fix this issue. Do you have any clue?

Sorry to hear that.
I suggest removing google dialer temporarily to check whether it is an issue with the firmware or google dialer.
After that let us know.
Btw. Have u installed google dialer during phone initial setup or after?
As a workaround I suggest using external app to hide applications - they worked great for me before. Just use google play store and search for "Hide App"

actually google dialer is the default one from factory, I don't have oppo dialer (and I don't think I can even install it being a system app). From what I understood, the fact that some unit have oppo dialer and others (like mine) google dialer depends on the region. My unit is an european one (italian).
I will try external app, thanks for your suggestion.

So I finally got the update for ColorOS 11 on my Oppo Find X2 Pro yesterday and so far I like it. However, there is no way to auto-hide the navigation buttons.
I've tried navigation gestures but just cannot get used to them (I will try again some time I promise), so I'm back to my trusty navigation buttons. However, unlike ColorOS 7,i cannot find the option to automatically hide (or press a button to hide) these when in apps, etc. so I now can't have a full screen experience.
Has anyone found how to do this yet?

This is X3 Pro forum. Not X2 Pro.

hide apps milestoneapply :
Long-tap on any empty space on your home screen.
In the bottom right corner, tap the button for home screen settings.
Scroll down on that menu and tap "Hide apps."
In the menu that pops up, select any apps you want to hide, then tap "Apply."

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, our R&D Team has already started working on it to get this issue fixed. Rest, please be assured this issue will get resolved in next software update.
However, until then, you may also try alternative way for accessing the hidden apps by following below steps:
1. Device Settings > Fingerprint > Fingerprint for hidden apps quick-start
2. Select any registered finger (best option to use rarely used finger to unlock the device so that it won't open every time)
We thank you for patience and understanding.
