GSam Battery Monitor Pro not showing App usage - ZTE Axon 7 Themes, Apps, and Mods

Hi,
this is my second axon and still GSam won't display the app usage. Is there anything in the settings or whatever that I should select to see the app usage?

Mine works just fine?

Did you just install it from play store and nothing else?

OK, well, I'm not rooted. Do you have to be rooted to see it correctly?

Not that I'm aware of... Or according to the play store description. Have you given it all permissions?

I think so or where can I check this? I allowed everything when I first opened the app. It seems like the app usage works for the first few moments but then it doesn't record any app activity. Like all apps are frozen. It's really strange since this is the second phone.

Should be under settings/apps/gsam battery/ permissions. all of mine are on. here's screen shots from right now vs earlier

That's really odd.......Mine works just fine and has since day one?
Might be time to try a factory reset if the built-in monitor isn't showing any usage?
Have you uninstalled and reinstalled Gsam?

Full uninstall and try again?

Yes, I already uninstalled and installed GSam.

I tried factory reset. It worked for quite a while but after restoring my apps I can't see app usage anymore again. Is it possible that another app prevents it?

I seen your original reply about it working until the other apps restored?? I wonder if another app is interfering with it?

Yes, I'm wondering, too...
But somehow I can't really believe that any other app has that much power on my phone without root.
Anyone experiencing the same?

Suspicious app called MtkCamera

Rooted my phone using the Vroot method and did some surveying with permission manager, xPrivacy and I stumbled upon a mysterious app called MtkCamera (com.example.cameraroot). I have no recollection of ever installing this app. I find this suspicious because I use permission manager on other phones running ICS and never have to deal with this app before. Considering all the apps listed are installed from Google Play Store, I decided to restrict all permission and uninstall the app. Check out the permissions list.

I'm not convinced. Looking at the network permissions, it doesn't make sense why it would need to control network access.

If you not sure if you want to remove it yet, put it behind a firewall

I rooted with Vroot, installed english SU and then removed the Chinese SU using the vroot app and I don't have the app installed.
Removed it as soon as I saw it. Better not run it, and remove it does nothing to the root.

Sure, but what does it do? Does it steal your contacts? Send SMS'? Log your IMEI? Log your keystrokes? Or is it nothing out of the ordinary? Who knows!
I could decompile it myself, but I have no idea what to look for, so that's a complete waste of time.

A quick Google search reveals that "MTK" is MediaTek, a Taiwanese semiconductor company that's in the smartphone business, so I guess that's something? Still doesn't tell us why MediaTek's camera thingy is installed on some Ultras, though.

So the reason some people do not have can be simply because they do not have a TW firmware. Have a TW firmware and got it after vroot. But where would be the point for vroot to put a malicious apps on your phone when they can do anything they want while rooting your device? Maybe you should not take your phone with you on the bathroom, they may record you hahahaha.

So you don't find the following permissions suspicious?
Change network connectivity
Connect and disconnect wifi
Full network access
View network connection
View wi-fi connection
Pair with bluetooth devices
Allow wifi multicast reception
Call me paranoid, but I think this is a spying app...
this app with us from the beginning.
this is what I found -platform for the bottom and top of the camera for a detailed explanation of the process and the introduction of the frame code
that does seem suspicious.
Is the view that this root method is trustworthy?
Trying to weigh up if all is well before I root.

Android 6 UK today

Ok so how many others got the OTA to Android 6 in UK today ? its looking great and running faster, but my only issue is it will not allow me to set any launchers like google?
Google Launcher can be selected as of Marshmallow I think, if not other all the launchers are working smoothly with Marshmallow.
EMUI 5 (if arrived) will have inbuilt App drawer. And it seems that App drawer is the main thing for which people were using Google Launcher in EMUI.

Galaxy Labs AT&T S7 APK

I wanted to post this because I search several times and never found any hits but randomly found this APK somewhere that works just fine activating Galaxy Labs on the AT&T model S7. Go to advanced features after install and you should see Galaxy labs. This allows you to disable the app drawer. So it is like an iPhone home screen expect you have widgets also! No root required.
Thanks for this. Quick Dial seems like it might be a useful feature.
Wow easy install and works great thank you!

You need to click the small text on the warning page that says "install anyway (unsafe)" Or something similar to that.
Clicking OK, is basically saying you don't want to proceed.
why did you manually sign it ?
maybe edited the apk ?
Weird why the sign it alerted system. Hmm
BTW it doesn't work on AT&T Android 7.0

Which twrp version on 7.1.1?

I got the dev preview going. Unlocked bootloader. Tried to flash twrp 3.0.2-2 through fastboot commands. Looked like it went well but when I try and boot into recovery I got the droid with red triangle.
Am I using the right version or doing it wrong? Also when I get twrp up and going, what's the best root file to flash? I wanna pixelize my 6p.
Thanks !!

So I had a similar issue. I flashed the OTA and forgot to flash SU before the reboot. This is why you can not get TWRP to flash. To fix this use Wug's tool kit found here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/development/toolkit-wugs-nexus-root-toolkit-v2-1-0-t3258493.
In stall tool kit on PC and when prompted for android version select ANY, should be the last choice on the list (don't select the version you have i.e 7.0, 7.0 etc). Then click root with TWRP and wait for it to go through the process. Now you will have TWRP working and SU in stalled. It will install the latest versions of both, so no worries there.
Good luck!

Thanks for the response. I've used wugfrsh for years. When I try to use it this time it reboots to bootloader fine but when it says the device is booting temporarily into twrp the phone never does it. It just stays in BL screen.
Edit...think I got it. Thanks for your help. Needed to change to "any build".
If you dont mind. Did you get all the pixel mods running? Assist, camera, etc? Which method did you follow? I see multiple methods available with some issues here and there.

Did you select the any version of android? That is odd, it worked fine for me on 7.0 and 7.1.1. Did you run it as admin? Try tuning off you Anit-virus, in the past that interfered for me unlocking HTC bootlodaers
Perhaps a different tool kit would work for you.

Yes, I have the camera working. Got it from the app thread, as well as the launcher. For assistant to work I just did the build prop edit.
Find: ro.product.model=Nexus 6P and change it to
ro.product.model=Pixel XL
Then add this line:
ro.opa.eligible_device=true
save and reboot. Long press home and set it up.

Well if you downgrade, a full wipe would be in order. I for one had fc's on 7.1.1. I did a full wipe and clean install of the system image. All is well now except for amazon app store. But this is no surprise as it did this with the 7.0 preview as well, I can live with this. It will be updated soon enough.
You want unofficial twrp 3.0.2-3. See this thread for details and a download link.
