Hi All,
I just recently rooted my Note5 with ForeverLoco's ROM using ODIN and with Anter47's Kernel. I noticed that after a while, the accessibility services (Settings > Accessibility > Services) which control Tasker and Greenify (among others) all turn themselves off after I manually turn them all back on. I have Clean Master as well as Greenify that kills/hibernates apps but none of the apps in the accessibility page are included on either list. What am i doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

On the S6 edge, I have a similar problem: the settings remain, but they simply stop working after some time. I have to either restart the phone, or switch them off and back on to get them working again.

hi
I also had similar problem when i had my Note4.I was also rooted etc etc .My workaround was to... ..when i flashed my new updated stock Rom i would quickly enable it ,but as you stated it would/might turn off later , I flashed numerous Lollipop Roms and it was present in all except my last Note 4 Rom.. ...COH4. i found issue to be fixed in this Rom.
The problem ( i supect ) , is that most users don't use this service a lot ,so it goes mostly unnoticed .Very fustrating "bug"
So far i have no issues with my Note5 .
Could be that root interferes with setting or just a Samsung "bug " ????
good luck

My S6 edge is not rooted, so it might be a bug on some Samsung roms
I am having the same issue on my find 7. It is very frustrating as I just set up a lot of automation tasks that rely in autovoice being accessibility enabled. Grrr
So from another post around here I found the solution for me and it's very (stupid) easy..
Under settings -> program management, I had to lock certain apps.
I had almost flashed another rom.
Same problem here with Tasker, Nova Launcher and True Phone accessibility services turning off. My phone has Lollipop and is rooted.
Which apps ?

Download Servicely from GP and keep everything turned on!
Im on Phronesis v6.5 rom 5.1 1 on my note 3.
I got the same issue, after reboot all my accessability permissions for my apps are turned off. Apps that need the accessability are Twilight, switch swiftly and a bunch of others including greenify.
Has anybody found a solution to this issue?
PS somehow Nova Launcher seems to keep its accessability ON through reboots!
Samsung and Huawei
Saw the subject is saying [ROOTED] but posting anyway even if this also applies also to non-rooted devices running the stock versions of Android:
On Samsung Galaxy devices (SG 5 and later), check to see if you have App Battery Optimizer in Samsung Smart Manager app enabled. Please disable this as it is known to disable app Accessibility Services: go to Android Settings > General > Battery > look under App Optimization and select Details. Then find the apps in question and turn them off.
For Huawei phones, go to Settings > Apps > Advanced Options > Ignore Optimations and toggle "allow" for your apps that needs to be allowed accessibility permissions.
It happens to me as well. When I use titanium backup to clear apps cache it will shut off all accessibility apps and you will have to turn them back on. I noticed it happens when I use cool master as well.
Hi, it happens to me with Greenify on a Xiaomi redmi note 3 (marshmallow), the only thing that worked for me was: Settings>apps setting>permissions> autostart, and allowing Greenify. It works, even when i went back to optimization feature and leave Greenify to be optimized as it was.
Hi, I am also nor rooted but thought I would chime in as I am also experiencing this annoying issue with my Huawei Mediapad X2 running EMUI 4.0 Marshmallow Stock. Unfortunately, setting Greenify to ignore battery optimizations does not help. Once apps are killed, their Accessibility setting is turned off automatically - very frustrating. Anyone have any other solutions?
The solution given by elpipo22 works for me in a rather different environment, a xiaomi MI 4 with miui. The autostart option here was in Security app -> permissions -> autostart -> choose the apps which should retain accessibility settings.
Hii,
In my case, oppo f1s, i found out one solution
First of all your device should be rooted, the best
way to do that is through resetting firmware to factory or updating to newer oppo system image, then installing custom recovery BIOS or whatever it's name is,
then rooting under Recovery mode using Magisc...
All this is described in some xda-developers forum topic.
But that is not our issue for now,
To prevent accessibility permission to be revoked
from our service or app, we have to go developper,
by browsing SETTINGS >> DEVICE INFO , then clicking about 8 times or more on BUIL NUMBER... now that we
have become DEVELOPPER for good, we go back and then
we navigate towards SETTINGS >> ADVANCED SETTINGS >> DEVELOPPER SETTINGS... then enable DEVELOPPER OPTIONS, open section RUNNING SERVICES, browse for application named SECURITY CENTER, inside whitch we can see 4 running services, then STOP service named
CONTROL_VERIFY_SERVICE (of course on your own risk)
, that is it, now just go to SETTINGS >> ADVACED SETTINGS >> ACCESSIBILITY and enable accessibility for your application and enjoy it.....
Hello, dear XDA users.
Yesterday morning (08/04/2016) I have tested some applications from the PlayStore.
Now I have the following problem: After some time (usually shortly after unlock) pops up a graph. This can only be removed by clicking and starts (originally) the PlayStore. Meanwhile it tries to launch a browser, which you can then cancel. This one I should install (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.quick.clean).
Well I tried to track down the malicious software. But the virus scanner offered can not really help here. Supposedly there is a PUA - a Potentially Unwanted App. (Android Ewind (Adware)
First, the file is: Search Service Version 2:00:51 my Oukitel K6000 be infested per Sophos can not remove and it seems in reality an original app from Oukitel to be..
Trend Micro means, it was up to "Calls Blacklist Pro" which I use without problems for years. Here also comes the Note: PUA - AndroidOS_SMsreg.AXBCB.
Can anyone tell what I've captured me as me?
How do I get rid of the back?
What apps can plant something?
Thank you in advance.
Your Dr-Kimble
Ok this can sound nooby but have you checked under settings>apps (all, running and downloaded section) for some apps that you downloaded on that day. Try uninstalling them if they are present. Many apps ask you to make them device administrator and refuse to uninstall. Check under Settings>security>device administrators for apps that shouldn't be given this much privilege (android device manager, greenify etc. are fine but a live wallpaper or a game is not). Check Settings>accessibility. Under services section, uncheck any suspicious apps (you can disable all of them, then enable them one by one to detect which is causing it).
And for the last, if you have developer settings turned on you can check process stats too.

So I’ve discovered when trying to use apps that use the display over app function crash instantly and I can’t find anything else where online. Does anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions would be great thanks I don’t want to return the phone but I use some of these apps for work.
What apps? Because some time ago Google made changes to how this works and apps must ask user to grant them permission to draw over other apps.
When upgraded to a newer version of Android, permission was not removed for already installed apps. But on new device, you most likely have to grant this permission after reinstalling your apps (and if you used old apps that do not check it this permission is granted, they will crash when trying to use it).
You can manage this permission in Settings > Apps > Special access (I other language on the phone, so can't say what exactly this section is called in English)
So I'm using octopus for customer keyboard mapping for some of my work apps. But I also have modded among us for custom servers and both apps crash even tho I'm granted permission.
I just got my Pixel 5a yesterday and immediately am annoyed by the Google stuff. I installed the Nova launcher but still get thrown back to the Pixel launcher or tossed into various assistant screens all over the place. Is there any way to truly turn this stuff off via normal settings? I don't really want to root or get custom firmware, but I despise these forced integrations between everything.
I don't want anything launching of its own volition or because I accidentally touch or look at the phone. I just want the apps to launch when I click them, the 3-button navigation to let me switch between tasks, and a simple homescreen to hold widgets and shortcuts I choose. The first reason I don't want the Pixel launcher is because it doesn't' let me remove the stupid search bar, but I also don't want any of the other hidden and implicit triggers that tie into the assistant.
I also find it annoying that the home button opens some search if I touch it while already on the home screen. Is this coming from the assistant too? I didn't yet find any settings in Nova to adjust the buttons.
I'm with you here. Installed Nova for the exact same reason as you. I do this next thing on all my Android phones: GO to settings > Apps & notifications > see all apps > Google = DISABLE... o some phones it can be uninstalled!
Personally I also disable "Google Play Services for AR" but that is personal choice. I also disable a number of other apps that I know I do not want/use.
I suppose I could use ADB to try and uninstall them, but once they're disabled that is usually good enough. The first one though, Google being disabled, "should" remedy all your issues. I too use the three button navigation and hate ALL assistants!
There's a program on here called 'adpappcontrol' that's great for removing anything you want via ADB.
It's basically just a gui for the command line program. It's worked great for me on at least three phones.
[TOOL] ADB AppControl 1.8.0 🚀 Ultimate App Manager & Debloat Tool + Tweaks
ADB AppControl 🚀 Root is not required. Works with any Android device. Can do almost everything you dreamed about with applications. ADB AppControl - the desktop program, that will allow you to easily manage applications on your android device...

Highly recommend. Make sure you tip the dev, since he does it in his spare time.

I could have sworn I already did that, but just checked and it is enabled. Has yours stayed off? Would the automatic Google Play app updates cause this to be reenabled?
I also now found the Nova setting Gestures -> Home Button that was causing this other search to appear if I press the home button when already on the home screen. Setting it to None with the checkbox still set for Only on main home page seems to give me what I want there...

Mine has stayed disabled. I can't speak to whether auto updates may have reenabled it. I always turn auto updates off. I like to see what is being updated on my phone.

Hi,
on my new Pixel 7 (all updates installed) App permssion get lost every day.
On Apps I already granted permissions (e.g. Notifications) after about one day I get prompt for to grand permissions again. Normally this should happen only after few month of not used apps.
I guess on my phone the play protect feature is broken and so permissions are revoked way to soon. In PlayStoryApp >> Usersettings >> Play Protect >> settings I click on the bottom menu Item and the app crashes.
Workaround: Disable Play Protect for each app. Has to be done for each app separatly. So not very good workaround.
Any Ideas?
cheers
Timo
I encounter a similar behaviour. Notification permissions persist on my pixel 7 but file access or access to user data get revoked every day. If I restart the phone during the day all apps still have their granted permissions. But if I start the phone in the morning permissions are revoked.
I enabled "restrict background battery" for few apps. After reboot, those settings are lost.
