App Permission for firmware 23.5.A.1.291 - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Everyone,
I"ve searched in the search box but it didn't show the result. I have upgraded my Xperia Z2 to firmware 23.5.A.1.291. When I press the Google Maps app. It asks me to allow that app permission. I press allow. The next box appears like like "Screen Overlay Detected" the attached pix
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And when I tap "Open Settings" it leads me to a list of apps. From there I don't know what to do next, because, when I tap the Google Maps app in the list It leads me to App Permissions like: Contact, Location, Phone, Storage. I tap "Location", it doesn't turn green, but the box "Screen Overlay Detected" appears again. Please help. I don't know what to do.

Same here

If you use xposed, try NoOverlayWarning module.

If you don't use Xposed you have to force stop or kill app which draw overlay on screen such as messenger chathead, Lux. Before you grant permission for new app
Sorry for my English though.

If you're using an app that control brightness, like flux, or something that adds a colour filter like CF.lumen, that is your culprit, but you need to be very careful because this overlay warning is there to protect you from apps hijacking your clicks, so be careful.

I also faced the same issue of screen overlay, then I disabled all screen overlay app and then enable it one by one and then keep checking if permission is working or not, in this way I found 3 apps to be held culprit. Thats because of May security patch in 291 firmware, i did upgrade 1 app among those 3 culprit and it start behaving normally. So what I did is I mailed the other 2 guys about the issue, so that they too update their apps.

Looks like your friend installed an app which uses ads for its income. These kinda apps create the shortcuts like "Apps 4 Free!"...
By clicking on these apps the developer of the app gets paid. So just remove the app that you installed just before you start seeing this shortcut.
Btw just deleting the shortcut will be enough.

Download Lookout Ad Network Detector from the play store (if the playstore is available for you) to find out what app is making those icons

never mind i accidentally clicked the "menu option" of my galaxy win/quattro and then the setting option popped out.
I know this is an old thread, but I don't think this necessarily works i.e. disabling auto-updates per individual app. I recently rooted an lg g4. As far as i know, I have had auto-update turned off, and as i saw the updates running, I checked the play-store to make sure it was off and even checked a few of the apps to make sure autoupdate was turned off and in every case auto update was turned off. and yet the updates still downloaded and updates ran. I would not even have known if I had not been awake at 3am.

My SystemUI keeps on fc'ing and I don't know why (logcat)

I was on infinity v7 and then i wiped and switched to xtrestolite to maybe fix it but im still having the same problem

Seems like a resource cannot be found. Trying to get it from a file. So ask the ROM developer.

Removing xposed fixed it. But i like xposed so I unchecked all modules and added them back one by one and checked if I had the fc, till I got to this app

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and that's the one that was causing it... And google now always triggered it because it searches for location and any location search would trigger the fc, but what's strange is, that I had that module for months and this just started in the last few days.

Ah. Seems like the maker of the module needs to go back to the drawing board and figure it out. That actually makes sense now why it couldn't find a resource. The module maker prolly doesn't have something coded right. Go to their thread and post the device, module version, and logcat to the thread to help them out.
Google does a lot code tweaks. And Google Now is a high traffic app, constantly pinging GP services for your location. Google is ad driven after all and Google cares a lot more about profiling your movements than say your battery or the amount of background data that might consume.
It can be hard to keep up with the ever evolving Google code. Some change on Google's end probably broke your xposed module. And Google isn't big on including debug into their apps either. I deny Google Now location permissions simply to negate the impact that it had on my battery.

Quick launch app

Hi everyone..
I'm looking for an app, widget or anything you can think of, style appsi, sidecontrol or any other quick launch app, that can be activated through a shortcut or any other way beside gesture... From my experience both of these apps are the most usefull and efficient apps of there kind. You can add favorite app, contacts, toggels or practikly anything you would like. The thing is that for me personally, being able to activate them only via gesture is quite annoying. I find myself accidently triggering it, or facing bugs. Appsi hasn't released anything for a while, so I guess that the project is over. And sidecontrol has bugs and doesn't work well on my lg g3. Does anybody know something else like theme?
Thank you for taking the time to read this long post, and of course for your help....
You can try SwipePad app.

Sounds simplistic, but why not just put your apps, shortcuts, etc in a folder?

Swipe pad is launched by a gesture, and is rather limited than appsi or sidecontrol...

Because that to access everything you need to go the home screen. I'm looking for something you can access these features from anywhere..
The home screen is just one big menu that has hot key access via the center of the navbar.
I can access it from anywhere by hitting the home key. I can return to any app I've started via the recents key.
Your view of how your menu should work is the same as this. In your app you hotkey access from anywhere. So do I. You would have categories to establish multiple menu levels. So do I. You need to return to the app you were in. So do I.
Mine is just reinventing what we already have. Yours requires additional code and system resources. I'm using mine and you're still looking.
Point taken...

App or mod for pass code after swipe to unlock

I remember I used to be able to swipe my lock screen and then a pin would have to be entered to get to the home page. Almost like the iPhone where you slide to unlock and then are prompted to enter pin. I don't want a pin on my lock screen, I want to swipe it and then put the pin in. Anyone know?

Thanks for this. Unfortunately it isn't working right on the s5. The first initial time it works, but then there's a lock icon with a circle around it on the lock screen and when I unlock it the pin comes up behind it and it doesn't go away
