[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?

Did you install the framework?

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.

Apps storage problem

Hello,
I'm not here to complain about the "Other Storage" problem, but a similar one:
I manually flashed my Lumia 920 with NCS and, of course, the cloud backup helped me to restore the application and all the rest. Unfortunately, my Whatsapp and Viber conversations didn't backup themselves, so I lost all of them and don't know why (this was a big problem, but not the main problem i'm gonna talking about).
The problem here is that all my apps now fill A LOT of more space than before (I attach you some pics so you can see). I decided updated to Amber and GDR2 last night hoping that would solve the problem but it did not.
Any idea?...

The application installation packages are stored on the phone (Not deleted after installation like any other phone, causing a massive expansion in file size. This might go down over time (WPCentral says GDR2 fixes this issue), but this isn't very likely.

Thank you, I hope it will go dow over time as you said...GDR2 don't fix the issue.

WhatsApp is very hungry for storage.

Hi all,
An image is better what one thousand words

What is my theory? Well, I use the twin app function for WhatsApp (My phone is dual sim) and I thinking this function is the problem.
Anyone with similar problem?
btw, my solution is deleted data app but this causes what I have to configure WhatsApp again.
Thanks

Huawei P10 lite Whatsapp Twin app, consuming storage data
WhatsApp Twin App storage data (ie. setting-App-Whatsapp-Storage data- DATA) increases everytime WhatsApp is opened, even when I Restrict my Background data and when my phone is in Airplane Mode. Storage Data increases by approximately 10 Megs everytime Whatsapp is opned and increases to about 15 Gigs eventually.
This only happens with WhatsApp twin App but WhatsApp single mode works perfect.
Huawei P10 lite
Any Solutions please?

Huawei Mate 9 whatsapp storage and battery problem
I've the same problem by using the native twin-feature for Whatsapp. When the Mate 9 doesn't have internet connection, the Whatsapp storage grows explosive (1Mb per second) and the battery will be drained.. This is 100% reproducible by turning on flight-mode.
Very annoying problem, I specifically chose Huawei because of this native twin-feature.
Anybody fix this bug?

Got this problem too even with latest B190 firmware, it fills storage and drains battery

Have you tried to duplicate WhatsApp using Island (from the Greenify creator)?
I think should work better

Another option is to use any of the many existing mods with different packages names for the second number. My current favorite is yowhatsapp which also includes privacy and theming options.

Yeah, the option is to use another twin app solution and see if the problem is repeated. But one reason I bought the P10 was because of this feature.
Well, apart from Island and yowhatsapp, any other recommendation?

I recommend to use island due to it uses the stock app

I'm using GBWhatsApp for a week now. Very stable, low battery consumption. It's a solution, a pity that the native twinn app works so badly.

Hello,
I have the same issue on P10 Lite, whatsapp drains battery and grow storage if wifi / data are off...
Any new solutions? Or you think we must wait for the next firmware upgrade?

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?

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.

Found a way to actually open up some of the Evenwell apps using secret codes

I've spent a great deal of time trying to assess what these Evenwell apps do and have managed to open up a few using secret codes taken from the apps manifest.
1) Use this code on your phone dialler - *#"#3277#*#* it's for Stability Monitor app. This app from the looks of it is designed to send Nokia/Evenwell log reports from ANR crashes, boot reports amongst other things. By opening up the Stability Monitor app, you can actually choose to send yourself all the reports instead of them being uploaded to a server by periodically having zip files saved on your SD card! Very useful indeed.
2) *#*#666#*#* - EMM app. Yes one of the most hated of Evenwell apps that stays running constantly unless you're prepared to use ADB commands. You can manually set up CPU, GPU and DRAM Governors as if you have a rooted phone! You can either switch them off entirely or have them in use at your options. The option2s are switch off, default, screen or heavy app. There are even options for when force stop apps occur and something called dropcache.
You can also see all current app processes and even what EMM considers to be whitelisted apps. Surprisingly it doesn't consider Google Play Services to be whitelisted which answers my own question about why I would get popups to say the app stopped. There is even a way to manually add an app to the whitelist but I have not been successful with this yet as I am not as technically gifted as most people in here.
I will see about uploading some images to the net so I can post here of actual screenshots as I have not made 10 posts yet here so I cannot upload direct from my phone.
There are a few others I've discovered I can open and will update here as soon as I work out what each app does and what you can do on them when you open them up.
I would appreciate some technical assistance with regards to the EMM app as so far by making my own amendments, all I've done is heat my phone up so high I struggle to pick it up! If anyone can test out the CPU, GPU & DRAM Governor options to see which are the best, please update here.
*EDIT* Here's a link to the album I created here to post screenshots -
