I updated to Marshmallow using the kdz and tot method, got root no issues. Phone works great, installed su, Xposed V84, again no issues. Was able to restore most of my apps via TiBu, again no issues (except a few minor ones). I'm running Nova Prime for launcher.
I have G4 Tweaks installed and running no issues. BUT, I have no second screen! It happened last night out of the blue. Not sure what is going on or why it happened. It is simply not there either when screen is on or off. I did freeze some apps via TiBu but nothing other than the standard bloat stuff.
I went back to my original, 1st backup before I modded anything and the second screen was there.
Any ideas??
Xposed breaks 2nd screen. There's a fix but I dont know what thread or how to do it since I dont used Xposed.
Just pointing you in the right direction.
Thanks, latest version does not have the issue as I understand so I don't think that's the issue

Xposed 84+ should fix any of the issues with LG software... it's been the case for me, as I currently have a fully functional device with root, Xposed, and all the while being on MM. I haven't seen anyone come across anything like your issue, so you may have to do what I just did to narrow down my issue with WiFi calling and that was to install groups of things and doing a backup in between each group until you can narrow it down. luckily you have a backup where everything was functional that you can start off on. if you do find the culprit, I'd be curious to hear what it was. for my broken WiFi calling, it happened after installing busybox.

This may be a case by case scenario. Xposed 84 almost with certainty, broke my second screen and I had to flash the second screen fix in order to remedy the situation. Been working like a dream ever since.

Thanks guys. Yes definitely a unique experience I'm thinking. I worked my way back from my 1st backup after installing MM. Installed a bit at a time, backed up and kept going. I'm now fully where I want to be and all is well. I did not restore anything from TiBu except some of my basic app data (messaging, phone logs etc). Everything else I did a clean install from Google Play.
If I had to guess, something that I restored the first time via TiBu likely borked the second screen somehow though I really do not what or how.
My best advice to all, be patient! Go slow, install backup, install backup etc.

Hi guys I'm on bionix 3 with JACs OC kernel with the latest voodoo and color fix installed. Since I installed the newest kernel my rotation has stopped working in all my apps. I downloaded an app to test my orientation sensor, everything is set to 0. I also dropped my phone after I installed the kernel so maybe that could be the reason...any ideas? Is there a way to test if items software or hardware related? If it is damaged hardware, should I unhappy and go to t mobile? any advice is greatly appreciated thanks!
Revert your phone to complete stock and see if it begins to work again. If it doesn't, then your best bet is to bring it back to Tmo.

thanks ill try to remove the lagfix and ODIN back to stock.
if i were to take it to Tmo and the stock rom didnt fix it, would they replace it under warranty, you think?
I'm almost positive they will replace it. Just don't tell them you dropped it!

Happened to me, requested a new phone because it would not orient even after wiping.
So I get the new vibrant and go to town and wipe again, removing superuser su busybox, when in one app I realize it orients....
It had been on lagfix and orientation worked. I moved it to ext2 on sdcard, orientation worked.
So I blame an app or something else I have not redone on this replacement.
Btw check your compass, stuck at north too isn't it?
Edit: Wasn't me knocking it off the couch if a wipe fixes it.....

some apps automatically put the phone in landscape, like the youtube app once you watch a video, but if you press back and get to the main youtube app page it will stay in landscape but it wont rotate to portrait at all until you get to the home screen which i have locked onto portrait....ill wipe and odin to stock and see what happens, but what did you t-mobile when you gave it to them? and how do exchanges work exactly? ive never done one before with a phone, do they switch you out right then and there or do they mail you a replacement?
Thanks guys for your suggestions =]

If you turn off auto orientation and exit your media apps, phone is in portrait, makes it more usable until you wipe phone.
I am not sure the stores do it past the 2 weeks, you call tmo and they might ask you to try things until they send you a new phone via ups, you put old one in a box and put the return label on and drop it off at a ups store to send it back, if you take more than 7 days, you get to pay for the replacement
pretty painless process unless you are impatient and say sure, charge me $21 for express shipping.

Hmm that is strange, but there were a lot of weird things happening when I had the rom and kernel combo I had before. I had long wake up lag, intense battery drain, and no rotation, but I odin'd, rooted, flashed the same things again and everything works fine now, I even titanium restored some apps and settings ran fix permissions and nothing weird happening yet. Idk what could have caused it before...
My accelerometers are very flaky -- I have been assuming it's related to my nearly-useless compass and my completely non-functional GPS. I use "Digital Speed" whenever I drive my '55 (which has a broken speedo cable at the moment) and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Completely random, even after a fresh reboot.
Same problem here. Running Bionix 1.4. First noticed a problem when I installed a game that needed tilt to operate, it wouldn't work. Then I checked and the homescreen won't flip. Test apps show "no data" or "INIT" and no actual values for the sensors. I'm using the OC Voodoo version, is this a common thread with the problem?
Don't restore system setting from backup. It can kill the orientation. This is my experience.

Didn't.
I upgraded to Bionix 1.5 without Voodoo and the problem is gone. I thought maybe the 1.5 update fixed it, but another user is reporting the problem while on 1.5. I believe the Voodoo kernel is to blame at this point.

A full wipe worked for me, then again i never used anything too crazy. His experience suggests you should try it, oddly enough for me running the calibration tool, the error message talked about a stale nfs file
Reminds me of deleting battery statistics to reset the battery meter on other phones......and the full wiping/odin flashing nukes it.
Everything works fine on the replacement too with the same apps and fixes (minus lag fix) as before (orientation working wasn't found to be working before i already got a replacement on order :/ ), only thing i hate is gmaps 4.5.1 causing a load of 8.x+, enough to once get everything killed (uptime did not change although everything was reloaded, media was scanned as if it had rebooted) and a shut down the other time.
Hello,
Been using that rom for some time now, but still no luck with my Pebble. I realy use it, and get used to it. Now it almost 75% of the time is disconected. I tried everything. Previously on 4.4.2 I had no issues. But I wanted the new 5.0
I tried to write there in the gooh topic, but nonone seemed to care about it. and with the speed of 20 posts per hour, my question was fast lost in the conversation. Maybe someone else from the comunity had simmilar issue? Any advice will be greatly apriciated.

I have been having pebble connectivity issues, and I believe it's just rom compatibility because it's been an issue with all lollipop roms for me. This is what I did to fix the issues.
1. Uninstall the pebble app
2. Unpair the watch on both the phone and the watch
3. Install the app
4. Login and follow the instructions, pairing the watch using the app.
5. Make sure that notifications are turned on for it and that it is not greenfield.
6. Go in to settings, device, accessibility, make sure it's on
7. Go in to settings, sounds and notifications, notification access, enable it.
8. If a watch face is not updating (weather), switch to another face and then switch back.
I have found that restoring the app via Titanium Backup/Rom Toolbox, creates some issues too. Installing the app fresh from the market seems to be the most reliable.

Acctually I had it installed from TitBack!, also I'm not sure about Accessibility option (if it was or not) for now it works, but I'll see for how long.
Another issue is (was before too) that any notification are coming always doubled. That's sick

This not a ROM, but a kernel issue. Had a similar problem with my Xiaomi Mi Fitness Band. It would only connect reliably after I flashed Civato 3.5 kernel.

Is anyone else having issues with Facebook and messenger apps since rooting? It's the only thing I'm having problems with. The apps try to start but immediately crash before the login screen even appears. I'm using a clean install rooted 11b,not the upgrade option, I've tried clearing any and all fb files and folders from my device, clearing cache and deleting data, no change in fb apps, instant crash. And they were installed before almost everything else except busy box. Any ideas? Thanks in advanced!

Facebook working great here, don't use messenger so can't answer that sorry
Messenger working great here. While I don't use facebook, the other user confirmed that's good too. Try rebooting. That fixed an issue of mine after completing the process.
Try uninstalling and reinstalling the app.. I had a similar issue with instagram and a simple uninstall/reinstall fixed my issue.
Sent from my VS990 using Tapatalk
Nope, reboots and reinstalls didn't work sadly.
I typically don't use Messenger from the app, but I installed it to see if I have any issues and it is working well.
I would re-run your root process. I have seen this before. Something didn't quite gel on the first go-around that running it again might help.
Clean stock flash, then 11B root upgrade.

Basically what I ended up doing. Facebook wasn't the only thing not working as it turns out, Titanium Backup wasn't recognizing all the backups, out of the 140 backups I had, it was only finding 31. So I ended up doing a refurbish with a stock unrooted 11B erasing everything for a true clean start, then doing an upgrade with the rooted 11B and now everything is running smoothly. Facebook, messenger, Titanium Backup, all good. I'm not sure, but it might have been something to do with the fact that I was on 10B and tried to do the upgrade option with rooted 11B, but others say they had no problems upgrading from 10B to rooted 11B. So I don't know what happened, but it's good now, just in case anyone else is having random issues, maybe this will help you.
Thank you guys for the help and ideas!!!

I have had my Z5C E5823 since January, and was pretty happy with it - It would occasionally crash (maybe once a month?) which I was fine with - I figure nothings perfect.
I recently got the update for 6.0.1 pushed to my device and downloaded/installed it without issue. I started noticing right away that it would crash on random apps multiple times a day. I can be writing a text, borwsing the store, and get an error similar to:
"Unfortunately messaging has stopped"
"System UI has stopped"
"Google Play Store has stopped"
etc.
It doesnt seem isolated to one app, or to any one function as far as I can tell, but it is pretty frustrating to have this problem 3-4 times a day.
My carrier is T-Mobile, and I dont have many apps installed. None of the apps have changed since I updated to the newest software.
Has anyone else had this issue and know of a fix? This is borderline unusable, and I am almost ready to void my warranty and root the device to fix it...
I suggest trying a factory restore first.

Did the factory reset, and its been ok for a few days, but I got the same messaging has stopped and System UI has stopped error and had to restart again yesterday.
I have been getting the SystemUI error many many times lately. I am rooted and using XPower with androplus kernel with xposed so I figure some there is messing me up.
Although, I distinctly remember sometimes being prompted to enter my pin when trying my fingerprint (a sign that systemui has restarted) long before I rooted so maybe something else is causing this issue.

I am not rooted, but with all the issues I am considering it - although in my experience rooting leads to LESS stability, not more...
On the other hand, maybe there is some stock Sony app that is causing all my issues that I can't get rid of (What's New, etc.).
Its a bummer because I love so much about the phone - only cons are these system UI shutdowns and a slow camera shutter (not that big a deal for me).
Has anyone had any luck with a stable ROM? something to push me over the edge to rooting it?
Don't root, don't unlock your bootloader.
Download flashtool and the latest firmware release, clear everything (You will lose all your data) and reinstall fresh, see how the results are.
That should do the trick, if not you can consider BL unlock.

If you have the same results **** it and send it back for warranty, my z5c never crashes.

Quick update, I did a factory reset first, that didnt seem to help, but then did a factory reset immediately followed by a software repair, and the phone has worked well for about 2 weeks with no shutdowns - fingers crossed this good fortune continues.
Hi everyone, Im a bit desperate right now, since Ive searched all the internet (or I tried) and all of xda, but couldnt find a solution to my problem. Also Im unsure what causes it (ROM, device, some app,...?), which is why Im posting in the general section. So on to my problem:
I have a Oneplus 6, with the most current official LOS release. Sometimes when I unlock my phone, some random app will start. I said semi-random, because its mostly Instagram or Authy, probably depending on which of the two I had opened most recently (actually sometimes both will open; I see Authy for a split-second and then instagram will appear and stay), but never (as far as I remember) other apps, even if I had antoher one open before it happens.
Now, I recently discovered that I can reproduce the behavior if I go to developer settings and change the display cutout setting to something different. It will reliably happen. So the screen goes black for a second, (probably re-drawing the UI) come back and Instagram will open. This led me to the idea that the UI crashes in a way. When it happens after unlocking the device, its always black for a second as well, while usually the screen is just there.
I only found evidence of the problem online regarding Samsung phones, mostly using Nova. Im using Nova as well, so that may be the cause. But I dont know for sure.
Does anyone know this problem? Why is it always one of those two apps, that appear? Can a log help me find the issue?
Things I already tried: factory resetting and setting up Nova from the ground.
Help very much appreciated
EDIT: I dug through the log file a bit and found something interesting (as far as I can say, Im far from an expert). I attached the relevant part, may be someone can tell me what happens?
