LO13 Kangburra Le x620 - LeEco Le 2 Questions & Answers

Hi,
Great work, thank you. Finally Lineageos on my x620. Everything works fine in German but I have a, lets say cosmetical error. On the Lock Screen and when I swipe down the status bar it's not showing the carrier name, it's showing the carrier network number. When I go to settings SIM it's showing the carrier name. For example, let's say my carrier is called A1, in the settings I can see A1 but on the Lock Screen and when I swipe down I see 23251 instead of A1...
As I said it's just cosmetical but maybe you can find something...
One question, two days ago I did a clean install with version 21 and minimal gaps and then installed my Apps and set everything up. Is it possible to install version 33 without swiping? So to say to install version 33 over version 21. I have a lot of Apps and it takes a few hours to set everything up after a swipe so I thought maybe something like that would work.
Thanks
Again Great Work
P. S. Sorry, I can't answer in the original thread because I'm a new user...

Enabling G1 Maps Navigation has started annoying call behaviour - HELP!

I have Cyanogen's 4.2.3.1 installed with the 2.0 Maps application and Navigation works correctly for me.
Since I installed Navigation I am getting a huge "Double tap to answer" button that pops up on my screen when a call comes in.
A) It seems to have shortened the amount of time my phone rings before sending to voicemail
B) The double tap is flaky
C) It looks like ****
I have searched Google and the forums to see if this was an issue people had but can only find people talking about the in-call unlock screen.
Does anyone know why this is happening and how to stop it?
Is your navigation actually on while this is happening? If you have the little triangle above in your task bar then it is.
If you are fully exited from maps this shouldn't come up. At least it doesn't on my phone.
This happens all the time now. Even with GPS off and the Maps app not even loaded. Persists through reboots.
Odd. This happens while I have maps loaded, but not when its not loaded.
How did you install navigation?
push back our old build.prop
Will pushing back my old build.prop disable navigation?
No navigation only needs it for the install. I thought that might be the problem. Push your old prop files back and good luck!
this happend to me aswell, but i actually liked the double click - box look
that would also happen when my phone was just sitting here, no nav on, it would just light up, and have the double click box lit up.
i was on 4.2.3.1.
all that ended when i flashed cyan 4.2.4
i didnt wipe.. or fix permissions.
i installed navs from other thread [basically just the update.zip and clear data]
and everythingg works just fine. thanks to all!
I didn't know 4.2.4 was out yet but thought a Cyanogen Mod update would probably fix that issue. Reverting to my previous *.props has fixed all the issues.
You should've posted this in the Q&A section or an existing related thread.
Anyways.. To get rid of the double tap box, you need to push back the original build.props. If you do that however, you'll lose navigation in a few hours, like 6 or 7 hours.
There's already a thread about this that's named something like "unlocked features from new build.prop".

I will remember that next time. After being on here for almost 3 years I forget that the newbie youngsters like to change how we have done things here. Like one thread per issue. Thank you for the helpful link to the thread you thought I should have posted it in, great to see that XDA hasn't gone all to hell with newbie senior members who just throw out dictates and then can't even do a decent job of helping people.
use this if you are running cyanogen http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583684
Heres the thread for updated features from build.prop
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=583030
I just did the install with the newest cyanogen and then tried calling myself and I dont have any issues.
Also, navigation works fine.
I have a G1 with CM 4.2.4, and I'm not having the issue either. I tested incoming calls with the NAV and in maps.
I finally got Navigation -and- paid apps in Market to show, but, I am experiencing the same problem as the OP mentioned.
I don't want to lose Navigation but this is a little annoying. Someone mentioned if I put the original build.prop and build.trout.prop back, Navigation will not show up. How can we get the best of both worlds?

i swear i feel like people just post without reading anything. i posted a link to a thread that will fix your problem. look up a few posts. another member here had an update.zip that will install the maps without breaking the market, without making the weird floating box, and without any other weird problems. if you are running cyanogen it will work perfect.
the .props need to me modified to allow navigation to remain longer than a few hours. just apply the update-navigation.zip from recovery mode and it will fix your issue.

Actually I am having this same issue WITH using that .zip but for me it is no big deal. We are lucky to have Nav, I will take it with whatever problems (temporary of course) it comes with!
i had the double tap issue after i manually installed nav on wednesday. today i ran that .zip and the box is gone. i dont get why it would work for some people and not others.
the zip was actually updated 3 or 4 times. so if you applied it when it was first dropped, maybe you have an old version

[Q] [Ginger] Left/Right Swipe et al. features missing??

Just upgraded my captivate to the newest nightly cyanogenmod. No problems with the upgrade; did the usual google apps installations, etc. etc. What I've noticed is this (and a quick search of the forum didn't turn up similar issues):
In the contacts screen, I can no longer swipe left / right to message / dial respectively. There is a dial icon, but it was much more convenient to just swipe. Is this feature something that can be enabled? If so, how? I didn't see an option for it in the menus...
Also, I was used to being able to either "spell" a name, or start dialing the phone number in the dialer screen and have the name come up as I typed. This no longer works.
My contacts have been successfully imported, and I've rebooted multiple times... nothing seems to help.
So, has anyone else noticed this? If so, how do you fix it? Am I just missing some sort of simple option, like.. gimmie_some_pimp_ass_features_checkbox?
I have definitely seen some positive benefits to the upgrade... having tried multiple "distros" previously, I've always had slow GPS locking on my Android phone. Now, for the past couple days... it's been excellent. Within 10 seconds of launching the maps application, I've got a within 40 meter lock...
... but I digress.
If anyone has some input to this issue, I'd definitely like to hear it...
The swipe feature is a touchwiz feature, i.e. Samsung Rom and not aosp like CM7

Menu text missing on Android 7 Nougat

I am using a menu as described here http://tasker.dinglisch.net/userguide/en/help/ah_menu.html. I selected "Icon and Text Menu".
My menu worked fine on Android 6 Marshmallow. After upgrade to Android 7 Nougat, the icons appear, but the text is missing. The menu still works when pressed. I created a new menu from scratch and it's the same.
Please can anyone else on Nougat report if they see the same problem, or if it works fine for them? Any ideas what I might have done wrong please? Maybe I lost some Tasker setting during the upgrade? I had a quick look in the log but I can't really understand it.
Nexus 5X, stock Android rooted, Tasker 4.8u5 (latest on Google Play at time of writing).
I've got the same problem on 2 phones (Nexus 6 and 6p). I've noticed this problem since the previews this summer. I haven't found any solution. One phone is 100% stock bootloader still locked. I don't think that has anything to do with it.
Same problem here on Pixel with Android 7.1. The icons show up, but the title and menu text is absent.
Hi. Same problem on HTC 10 after stock ota upgrade. Updating tasker to last version solved the problem for me!
Thanks ddobiest - please could you tell us what version you are on?
Unfortunately still not working for me on Tasker 4.9u4 which is the latest version that I can see in Play Store.
This worked for me. Changed text colors to anything and it displays now. I can't post links, but it was on reddit, popup_command_gives_no_text_in_black_box_android

Great, many thanks that fixed it. Reddit article is here. Where the article said to change "Scenes tab/Popup" I had to change "Icon and Text menu" instead because that's what my menu was set to. It took 5-10 minutes of fiddling with settings, what seemed like redundantly resaving the same as I already had. I'm not exactly sure which one worked in the end, but if you have the same problem, persevere and you will solve it.

ColorOS 6.1: change launcher, etc.

Just picked up the China 64/6GB configuration (RMX1931), got Google Play running, all looking good, until I ran into the following OS limitations that I've never seen before in about 10 previous Android devices and at least 20 different OS's:
- I can't change the default launcher. Have seen tutorials for what must be previous versions of ColorOS on Oppo devices showing that the launcher can be changed under Additional Settings > App Management > Default App. In this version, App Management is in the root options menu, but the Default App menu doesn't include a launcher option. Attempting to set a new default launcher from within the new launcher app just doesn't take--no matter how many times I pick "use as default launcher," upon hitting home I go right back to the ColorOS launcher. It's mind-blowing to me that Oppo would have the shortsightedness to lock out one of the most key features of Android customizability...surely there's a way around this, has anyone found it? Because the stock launcher suuuucks.
- I can't set vibrate-only notifications. I can for ringtones, but not notifications. There's no "None" option for notification sounds, and no option to enable vibration or choose a vibration style for notifications. Unbelievable.
- I can't change the default SMS app. Well, I can, but the OS automatically changes it back to the stock SMS handler every time I receive an SMS, and I can't find any way to disable this.
Much obliged if anyone has found any workarounds to the above issues that they can share. I am REALLY excited for someone to come out with a way to flash stock Android on this thing. Great hardware value, but this stock OS...for the most part it's fine, but it's blocking functionality that's been available on every Android phone for the past decade. I can't imagine what the software team behind this was thinking.
Wow. Good for me I did not pre-orded the european version yesterday, I'm using Nova Prime launcher on every phone for years and also textra, that's a no go for this phone for me now... And I have no doubt what you say is true.
One thing tho, I'm french, saw a french review of the X2 Pro a few weeks ago, and the guy clearly said he installed textra and adviced users to do so, and didn't share any complains so...
But right now I'm gonna stand with your testimony and hold my purchase, thanks for sharing mate and hope you will find a solution if there is one.
It could be due to the fact it's a chinese version.
I guess EU version on pre order on the official site won't 'suffer' those limitations.
Let's wait for more feedback

I also have the Chinese version of the phone to the 8GB 128gb version. I also cannot change the launcher or change default applications. Hoping a custom or global ROM will come out so I can flash it over. I also have weird black lines that appear in my camera sometimes but only in my room I've noticed doesn't do it outside. they show up in the picture or video but when I'm in good lighting or outside they don't appear. Just in my room regardless of how the lighting is it's super weird. Otherwise the camera is pretty good. Can be a lot better with some software tweaks. Also when I swipe down on the home screen some of the phone is still in Chinese even though it's set in English. I can't get Google assistant on it either. It has its own built-in called breeno but it's all Chinese. Otherwise the performance of the phone is great if you could get oxygen OS on it it would be perfect. Battery life is really good currently at 50% 9 hours and 11 minutes of use and 4 hours and 11 minutes of screen on time. Charging a super fast and I typed all of this using talk to text.

Install your preferred launcher first, than uninstall default launcher with adb commands (many guides about that), you are good to go.

I have done it when I had Oppo K1 last year, same Color OS. And don't worry in case of any problem you can always factory reset to fix.

Doesn't work, on attempting to delete system apps, including launcher (com.oppo.launcher), I get the following return:
Failure [DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR]
Can uninstall other apps no problem with adb commands. Also, this is a unique error return; the error you get for trying to uninstall the wrong package name or a package that doesn't exist is different.
It looks to me like changing the launcher or permanently changing the SMS handler on the Realme X2 Pro will not be possible without root. I do see that there's a test version of TWRP out for this device, so I'll try getting SuperSU running and uninstall the system launcher that way.

So sorry to hear that, and so nonsense that Oppo (Realme) isn't allowing for a simple launcher change. Just because of those stupid things I'm not buying any phone that can't be rooted. But X2 Pro will get root eventually.

This looks to me to be the EU rom and is probably an EU version phone.

You mean an EU version? It definitely looks like the launcher restriction is an issue with the original chinese versions and there still appears to be no clarity on whether anyone has managed to get the EU rom on a CN phone.
The EX on the version number looks to me to indicate the global versions and this seemingly prevented people flashing it on the X2 so I suspect the X2 Pro has the same problem.
Just try pocco launcher guys.
Very light and looks like near to stock AOSP experience
Changed launcher without any problem at all. Process is straightforward as in any other android .

Yes, I've done this and can confirm it works. More detailed infos here:
https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
HOWEVER: Nova's Google companion does not work well. I often cannot slide to the very left and then I have to play around with the auto start and energy saving settings.
Also ColorOS keeps changing certain notification settings. Spotify and my Podcast App don't get shown on the Lockscreen, the settings are simply changed back without me doing this. And my calendar widget "Todo agenda" is often not populated with data and becomes useless.
For me, it's a pretty nasty mix of annoyances and shortcomings right now and I'm not thrilled by the Chinese version at all.
I will try to flash the EU Rom, but haven't seen it uploaded anywhere yet...
If that or future software updates won't solve the problems, then I will sell it again.

Question Not all notifications are visible on statusbar

Hi all,
For some reason some notifications are not visible on the statusbar.
They can be seen on the Always On display, and if you pull down the statusbar the notifications are visible there, but not on the statusbar itself as an icon.
I noticed that you can configure each app individually to either show or not, but in my case they all are configured to show the icon.
Might this be a bug? Has anyone else this same issue?
Edit: I just found the cause. Some apps have 'categories' in the 'Manage notifications' submenu. You have to click on these categories and in that submenu you have the option 'Display on statusbar'! No idea why some where set to OFF.
Hi,
I found an a french youtuber who had the same issus.
I think it need to be solved by an update.

Thanks

Coming from an S10+ (just like you) you will notice an incredible speed difference. I always believed the S10 was fast (enough). But the Oppo is on a whole new level.
Charging speeds are insane, but that probably is because I have been anti-spoiled by Samsung for so long
It's also worthy to mention that the device doesn't heat up while charging, so it's much more comfortable to hold.
The Oppo is 20 grams or so heavier, which doesn't sound like much, but I really notice it. It's also a bit top heavy, so be careful when holding it
It feels great in your hands though. The back side is indeed fingerprint proof if you get the blue matte version.
The OS has a lot of customization to offer, and I love the (off screen) gestures (I have now also switched from navigation buttons to gestures for navigations).
OneUI has even more options though! Especially if you were using Good Lock. I miss the option to have thumbnails in the task manager. I even miss the bixby button which could be reprogrammed
Face unlock is really fast, as is the FP unlock. If you hold the sensor after unlocking you get a shortcut to 5 favorite apps.
It's a great way to open your hue app or a remote, I just keep forgetting about it and release too soon
Oh, the screen protector is terrible, especially if you want to use the gestures you always move your finger over the edge and it doesn't feel comfortable. So I ripped it off.
Finally I tried out the native launcher, but reverted back to Nova quickly. It's not possible to replace the folder icons by a custom icon.

Thank you so much for your feedback. I'm more impatient now ! It sound great.
And last question (I promise ) the native apps is it from Google (Gmail, chrome, Google calendar,...) ? Or Oppo (like Samsung mail or Samsung calandar version Oppo ) ? Thanks again
It has a lot of Google apps builtin. I didn't really see many Oppo equivalents.
However, some apps can't be uninstalled, which I hate. Think Facebook.

I have no use for BREENO[in Chinese] or Hey Tap[ seems to replace a familiar Android System admin app] .. Cannot use Google1 to restore old SMS/MMS from my Oneplus5. Cannot select new default messaging app [ TEXTRA] . Cannot , or cannot recall how to select default Launcher [EVIE]. Hope we get ROMs here eventually so to have it behave more like a OnePlus /US phone than a Chinese phone.
Help!

default Launcher? I haven't set one for a couple of years, but now I cannot seem to figure how to choose my own preferred [Evie] , or why I cannot set default Messaging App [Textra], or get back my SMS/MMS that are backed up by Google1 to G-Drive.
How did you get Nova as chosen default Launcher?

I just installed Nova and it set itself as the default.
But if you go to settings and type default app then you can set all the default apps too.

I have no use for BREENO[in Chinese] or Hey Tap[ seems to replace a familiar Android System admin app] .. Cannot use Google1 to restore old SMS/MMS from my Oneplus5. Cannot select new default messaging app [ TEXTRA] . Cannot , or cannot recall how to select default Launcher [EVIE]. Hope we get ROMs here eventually so to have it behave more like a OnePlus /US phone than a Chinese phone.
Help!

Where did you buy your phone? I guess you have a Chinese OS Version?
I have no Breeno, no textra or Hey Tap.

Example: Settings, Messaging App: only shows choice Oppo-native, installed one. In Textra it prompts to make it default,, but sending a message results in the device declaring for some security reason it is resetting default to OPPO-native. BTW, OPPO-native is a low function featurelss app.
Launcher: old OnePlus5 in Default Apps has category: Home app [Launcher selection] , nothing like it in the choices under Default Apps on the FindX3pro
Google1 blocked from backing up MMS
My preferred File Manager: ES File Explorer pro lets me attempt to attach my G-Drive [cloud], passes through all the steps correctly, only to conclude "Auth Failed". The g-dive is fully accessible using the Google Drive app, but integration with ES is convenient, has been for years.
Any idea on how to address 'security issues' for either messaging or ES File Explorer?

Exactly, AliExpress straight from China. Language: English fine, but perhaps I was sloppy not being sure of a "Global version" . Any thoughts? Patience: Wait for rooting and ROMs?
Where did you get yours? Version?
Textra? I installed. My preferred Messaging App [ LOL, not OPPO's clearly]

I got one from my provider in Holland. International version.
Maybe it is possible to update it with an international ROM? I don't know if the connectivity is working fine too, 4G, 5G?

Sure look forward to giving it a try. Not even sure if there are tiny differences that would make the intl-ROM incompatible. I'm getting OTAs but the Chinese ones I think
[4G coverage good, not noticed or had 5G yet].
Over the last 4yrs I think I only took OTA from OnePlus & rooted it. The 4yrs prior the lock on the Samsung Note4 was never 'broken', Then 3 yrs prior with the Samsung Galaxy Captivate I sure enjoyed XDA-roms & rooting, but that was long ago, & I'm still dependent on skills of others.

I quit custom roms after the S7. And that one had a OneUI based 'optimized' ROM.
Maybe you can try this (I haven't just saw it yesterday in my ColorOS telegram group)

Problem with Nova or any custom launcher on any Android 11 phone is that the navigation gestures dont work properly, there is a screen flicker issue when you swipe to go to homescreen. Thats why i am stuck with stock launcher on any new phone i get.
