I found bug on security update 1 november 2017 - Sony Xperia XZ1 Questions & Answers

I used smart lock features to unlock my device sometimes but after couple an hours the option disappeared as you can see in screenshots!
Right now I rebooted my device but doesn't seem to help to figure it out

Solution

yeah, it's an Oreo Trust Agents bug. you'll find other OEM's who have moved to it have the same problem.

[BV9000 Pro] Setup Wizard Error Loop and the conniving practices of some companies

QUICK RANT:
There are people with similar problems on Blackview's forum website, so I thought to add another unsolved google result to the mix. Apparently every thread and comment are approved my their moderators, even with the promise that each one is answered within a day, all of my thread requests and comments have been blocked. I assume this has to do with maintaining product confidence. At surface level all the issues seem minimal and the threads all have answers. Someone even stupidly asked If the phone would get the Oreo update, now their lone approved post in the rom section is the poster-child for post release support "hope". I guess I am stupid for buying this inaccessible paperweight.
MY PROBLEM:
No matter what option I select at the startup, the device stalls on the connect to wifi and check for update screen. No amount of updating or even suggested OTA upgrade will fix this especially given that OTA requires access to the options/settings screen that is only found post startup. I have basic experience flashing a droid III to make it compatible with different carriers. I don't have experience flashing newer phones or custom roms. Please don't put my thread in limbo, you are my only hope frontier superusers! :angel:
Edit/Update:
I figured out a work around based on a YouTube video I watched that explained that you need to access the settings menu to force stop the "startup wizard" process. I accessed it through using the contact/feedback page feature of the third-party custom emoji keyboard that comes stock on the Android. Perhaps I shouldn't detail anymore in case seeing how this is a hole in the Android nougat security. PM me for more details if you want.
TLDR; there is a stock app on these phones that allow you to bypass a bugged startup wizard and resume basic setup and function of the phone as long as it has not been synced with a previous Google account no flashing required.
I had no issues with the setup wizard, it just needed some time. (I skipped it on the first start to perform a OTA update before make any more settings. After this update everything works like it should.)
Same problem
I have the exact same issue. The installation wizard keeps on quiting. Drives me nuts too. I does not matter what I do and what options I choose, with or without sim, with or without wifi. It has something to do with the android version, more android telephones are affected. However on other phones (see YouTube) you can still access the normal menu and work around the issue. With the BV9000PRO this does not work.
Hi. I'm having the exact same problem on my bv9000 pro, but when I access the boot menu, it's in Chinese. Are the menu settings in the same order as in English? That way, I may be able toggle/turn off that setup wizard and be able to use the phone. Thanks.
This works for me
This worked on my phone: copied from a YouTube post:
Disable all the wi-fi connections in the radius of the Phone, skip the procedure for the SIM, at this point it will ask you if you want to continue without connections and yes, do not enter the name and surname to give the phone a name, accept the Google / Android agreements, at this point the phone will be activated, no update is necessary via OTA if you have the BV9000 PRO-F phone (full HD version). There are two versions of this PRO series phone, the BV9000 PRO (not full HD) and the BV9000 PRO-F (full HD). I hope this solution will work for you too. Let me know bye.
I had the same and trouble shooted through it all and the only issue I have left is finding a carrier for the USA and if or how to change parameters of Bv 9000 phone frequencies to work in the United States. Any advice from anybody in the world please send advice, Tony

Hello everybody,
trust my message finds you well.
Sorry for posting this here, but i am not able to post a new thread and honestly i have been dealing with blackview sites and their admins with no luck , they dont answer your questions, neither do any support, nothing !
I have a blackview BV9000 pro, my screen broke up but is still working.
I bought a new screen and installed it but didn't work.'
'
After reading some forums, i understood that the new screens that are sell now are FHD+ and we need to upgrade our ROM so the new screen can work.
My questions are now :
1- where can i find this new rom that includes English and google play services.
2- if i install it, my old screen will still work?
3- this rom will let the new FHD+ screen to work?
thank you in advance.
Hi I know this is an old thread but I have issues with my second Blackview phone that is the BL6000 Pro.
To answer you: I have found several links to stock roms on the Blackview forum, they might even be interchangeable but I haven't tried.
I am currently seeking support to see if flashing with another "series" ROM will fix the Bl6000 pro hardware compatibility issues.

[8.1] [Magisk Module] Multi-Touch Fix for 8.1 Devices

Hello guys and girls,
As some of you already know Android 8.1 suffers from a severe Multi-Touch Issue. This issues makes the smartphone randomly jumping between the two touching points on the screen when touching with two or more fingers.
The issue is known to google since the preview of 8.1. It isn´t only affecting pixel but most probably all devices running 8.1. The issue is also present on P.
An issue got created here: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/70344455
There is a fix since mid march in review on google gerrit. But that didn´t make it into the april release, obviously.
To visualize the issue refer to the following videos:
https://youtu.be/wgYN5GwIgIc
https://youtu.be/2Vv584tvVyg
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dnIk_5qdK8&feature=youtu.be
This is especially bad for gamers. With the recent release of PUBG this issues seems dramatic to some, less to others.
I´m no gamer but I noticed the issue on the google foto app.
This issue has nothing to do with the corners badly reacting to touches, or touch sensitivity etc.
So but now to the fix. It seems the issues is only related to resampling but not to touching specific points of the screen ( not related to crossing x and y axis).
That also explains why the issue wasn´t happening when using the touch tracking tool in dev settings but on various multi touch test apps.
The fix is on google gerrit currently under review here:
https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/frameworks/native/+/640605
https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/frameworks/native/+/640606
Last week I compiled myself a DU build with the changes included and I couldn´t trigger the issue at all. I found no other side effects caused by the two patches.
For now I decided to provide a Magisk Module which replaces the changed libs that fixes the issue.
I compiled the libs while doing my april build of DU. The magisk module can be found on the link a little bit down.
The download is here:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=890129502657595755
A few disclaimers here.
1. That fix should in theory work for most 8.1 devices, including the likes of pixel 1st gen, pixel 2nd gen, one plus, xiaomi which suffer from this severe issue.
2. I didn´t fix this, I just compiled the libs with the fix found on google gerrit.
3. Rom devs you are very welcome to include this fix. I found no ill consequences as of yet but I can understand google taking it slow and reviewing it longer. Maybe they will find a better fix, but as of now this is the best thing we have.
Donations:
Donations are not mandatory but very welcome.

Check his git to see if he pulled the fix in or not
Updated trees today I'll push tomm
Just installed on latest lineage .. it's perfect!! Thank you so much
Any word on a fix for the sound bug on 8.1? After a couple of hours the phone stops playing ringtones and notifications (while other sounds work ala YouTube Spotify). A reboot fixes it temporarily.

Where is Motion Photo setting in newest Galaxy S9 System 19 update Feb 26

Reluctantly decided to do the latest update on my S9+ yesterday which was System 19 update. A few new features I noticed but one I used all the time especially with the grandkids is where did the Motion Photo setting go? That is a big Iphone option and I loved it on the S9.. So I can't believed they removed it.... Am I missing where the feature setting is? thanks for any input
i have done the update...i still have that option enabled and active when i take still photos although i cannot find that option anymore in the camera settings
Up the yellow one.
Thanks for this thread! On tech support with Samsung & sweet girl has been going through as many things as she can trying to help me find the way to restore this option which she wasn't aware of until I called. Thank you!

General Android 13 Beta 1 for the Pixel 6

Hey guys,
was not able to find another topic for the Android 13 Beta 1 so I opened this one (if there is though - pls delete this). I am using Android 13 since DP1/DP2 and now Beta 1 on my Pixel 6.
Honestly the experience starting from DP1 is similar to last`s year`s Android`s 12 - though not "super" stable it was still good for a daily driver. So Android 13 brings a lot of new things/permission management/task manager sort of/more material you design colors/some gimmicks things like a new progress bar for media players, but also enhanced clipboard, but also some useful things like "finally" access to media devices from the lock screen, new privacy & security updates and I also far more things like the update TARE and others (that are not yet fully transparent to us/the end users).
If you want to check my experience with A13 beta 1 for the P6, check my video. It`s good a for a daily driver - google pay/which was not working in DP1/ but I have yet to test it.
Mod edit: YT link removed.

Damn! I experience cellular issues from the moment I got my pixel 6.
Sadly I live in a country that is not officially supported, ie no VoLTE, no 5G and no VoWiFi...
Do you have that? Did you try to reset the phone?

My area (US) has those and worked fine with 12 and 12L. I haven't tried a factory reset yet, trying to avoid that much work . I'm in an area for the next 4 days where I don't get cell service anyway so I'll just use wifi calling, which works, and hope for a solve from Google.
Had no audio in video after a few clips so flashed back to derpfest
