Finally got my oppo find x purchased from China, let me know if you guys have question about using in US.
What service provider are you using it on? Any issue? Does Android auto work fine? Do you know if you can use the face recognition to access apps since there is no fingerprint sensor?
I also had one imported from China. I'm on att. I don't know any app that supports the face id right now. None of the bank apps support it, Google play doesn't, lastpass doesn't. So you'll have to type in the password every time.

How is the service on at&t? Just curious are running china rom or global one?
I'm on Tmobile, face unlocked does not work with any apps. Mine is Chinese rom, Google play store installed by my own, no apps crash found now. And I tested Verizon yesterday, it's not working, no signal at all unless turn on the lte only mode, seems Verizon has not approve the device on their network yet.

I haven't encountered any problem so far with at&t. It is China rom, but I'm running Nova launcher after disabling the stock launcher.

Hi, how did you disable the stock launcher and get Nova running? Don't you need an Oppo ID for that? Without a Chinese number this doesn't seem to work. Under default apps - home screen apps nothing is shown for me .

1. Install Nova launcher or whatever launcher you like on your phone. Go to phone settings, disable gesture control and use navigation buttons instead.
2. Enable USB debugging on your phone. Download and unzip ADB. Instructions can be found here.
3. Go to the root directory of ADB on your computer. Open Command Prompt, or Terminal on OSX or Linux.
4. Connect your phone to computer using USB.
5. Type the following in the command prompt
Code:
adb shell pm disable-user com.oppo.launcher
. Remember only do this after you have other 3rd party launchers installed.
6. The default gesture control will not work properly anymore. You can use navigation buttons. Or if you want to use gesture, go to phone settings, choose the one where swiping from bottom left is back and swiping from bottom right is recent apps.

Requires Xposed Framework!
This module forces Google Search to show over a lockscreen. This does not include GEL since that's a security risk in a way (use App Settings if you believe otherwise).
This module also fixes Google Voice Search failing when launched while the screen is off (using the Pebble smartwatch in my case).
Compatibility:
Jelly Bean or any other means of having the new Google Search.
Source:
The mod is open source: https://github.com/MohammadAG/Xposed-Secure-Google-Search
You may NOT distribute this app on the Play Store, paid or free.
Download:
http://dl-count.xposed.info/modules/com.mohammadag.securegooglevoicesearch_v2_28cc63.apk
Unable to install. Getting package name is incorrect error. Please look into it.

Got it installed here via manual download. It works, but I have to open it once, go back, and then open it again for it to accept input
Yes, Xposed reports an error of incorrect name after hitting Download. You are missing the "r" in the word "search" for the package name.

Just gave that a shot! The issue with starting is still persisting though. I have to open google search once (It'll play both the starting recording sound and then immediately after the recording cancel sound), then press back (App is unresponsive) and then open it again and it works as intended.

Yeah, I was aiming to fix that (and I have, but I guess it's a timing issue).
Does it happen when you launch Google Search with the screen off or on the lockscreen? I only handle it for the former since that's when it happens for me.
I tried with no luck getting this work using tasker to launch the voice activity when i plugged in my charger over my pattern lock screen. am I missing something?
EDIT: Missed the part about xposed app settings needed. Problem solved thanks!!
This is working pretty good for me.
I am waking the device using Secure Settings and then launching Google Search.
Would it be possible create another module similar to this but for Google Maps?

I cannot get this working, using nexus 5 on stock 4.4.2 rooted, I installed, activated in Xposed and reboot. I have app settings installed, am I supposed to put "show when locked" on for the secure google voice search app or on the actual google search app? I assume if I put on the actual google search app the whole launcher will show on the lockscreen which I do not really want for obvious reasons. Please help!

I'll second this. Nexus 4.4.2. Enabled in xposed, App Setting has Google Search show when locked. Rebooted.
I'm launching voice search via the DashClock widget on my secure lockscreen - but everytime I press it, I'm still prompted for my PIN. I have to be missing something simple. Any help or direction pretty please?

I read the first post again and I think I misintepreted what it meant the first time I read it. It says it does not include GEL, I thought that meant it does not include GEL meaning it will not install GEL (google experience launcher). I think it means it does not work if your phone uses GEL (which the Nexus 5 does) as it would put the entire launcher on the lockscreen. Seems we cannot use on Nexus 5 or any other device that has the GEL installed. Too bad :crying:

Ah. Thanks. I interpreted it as it would not work if GEL was your launcher. Since I use an alternative (Nova), I was hopeful. Looks like the integration into GEL is too deep on the Nexus 5 so this tweak is out. Too bad. Would love to have this. Thanks for the reply.

Nothing would show up on your lockscreen just by installing this, its a module for Xposed that allows Google Search to open while your screen is locked, without having to unlock it first.
I'm trying to use this on a Galaxy S3 to have Voice Search behave the same as the S-Voice defaults and open through the lockscreen on home button double-tap.
It will open Voice Search through the lockscreen, but the mic doesnt stay on to listen for your input. Any suggestions?
I've also tried to figure out a way in Tasker but cant get it right.
I know there's an app called "Home2Shortcut"...but thats not a very elegant workaround.
I am looking for a way to use it with the s-view cover. I managed to set up Google Now and get rid of s-voice. But now it will activate Google Now and after a couple seconds I lose connection, because s-view cover has a very short time out and that's not changeable..

I had this working the other day on a Nexus 5 running SlimKat and now after a clean install of the ROM it stopped working.
Same here. Stopped working. Whenever I use the headset button at the lockscreen, it goes "please unlock the device"

Hi guys,
I have Amlogic S812 streamer Xtreamer Wonder and it's running on 4.4.2 Android.
In the Settings menu there is no possibility (no menu at all) to add another Google account in addition to the one that was created initially. As a result all Google apps such Play Market, Gmail, Drive etc, working with one and only account without ability to switch to another one if needed. It's especially limiting with Paid apps which was bought under different accounts...
I tried to search all over the internet for the similar issue, but surprisingly did not found any ...
All the rest functionality is as usual, I also have root, thanks to the Rooting Guide by C3C076
Any help is very appreciated!
This is how Settings menu looks like :
Unfortunately, this firmware disable this feature.
So, to change google account, you have to use adb tool and remove /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db file (if box is root) and add another account.
If box isn't root, you have to factory reset this box to add new account

Thanks for your answer water275, but is what you mean is just removing existing and adding a new one, but there still will be only one account ?
I tried to use few different apps which can manage existing accounts and I had there the option to remove account, but not to add. So in order to remove i think i can use this way, instead of adb. But what about to have multiple accounts? Absolutely impossible ?
What is interesting is that those account management apps allowed me to go into sync options for existing accounts. So it looks like the Xtreamer just hiding required functionality (menus) and not completely removed them. I was thinking in direction of xml files which are responsible for menu layouts, but i have not too much knowledge with them...
You can use Gmail. When you slide left panel in, there's an arrow next to your profile name. When you expand it you will see "Manage accounts" menu option.
Alternatively you can use my simple app (attached) I created for this purpose.

Sorry, you are right. I got confused because of launching that app on my phone which runs lollipop. It unfortunately behaves differently on KitKat.
I'll try your app on my android stick in car, there is also 4.4.2 just to compare, but as i said earlier even that menu that your app shows is not available from the usual settings menu, so it seems like Xtreamer just hiding these menus for some reasons.

Yeah. But the screenshot above is a result of launching app on lollipop. Looks like the same call yields different results on KitKat.

For some reason on my Android stick in the car your app can't be installed. I have Install and Cancel buttons, but Install not clickable. I'll try similar app from the store later.
Found solution !
The reason is that Xtreamer installed custom Gmail app that is not asking for update and installed as a system app (you can't uninstall it in usual way). This app have no option to add/manage account as I shown on the screenshots above.
Thanks to ROOT i was able to remove that app completely from /system/apps , and installed official Gmail app from the store. In the official app there is full managing functionality for accounts and i was able to add multiple gmails there.
I highly recommend to uninstall pre-installed Drive and Youtube apps too.
In the general settings menu of Android there is still no manage account section, but at least I can get there through Gmail now.
Thanks to everybody for your help !

Not sure if this will help, but depending on the ROM you have installed (ie Lineage, I couldn't get google voice to listen and follow instructions from any screen. On Eragon however (which I have on my phone) you have the option to use "OK Google" from any screen (and Voice lock can be used as well) & the Google voice menu is different in Eragon compared to Lineage. In Eragon - its under settings >> Google >> Voice
From what I saw in Lineage its kinda under Settings >> Google >> Search (and I saw a voice menu but it doesn't allow voice commands from anywhere on the phone, just within Google Now from what I worked out).. it was pretty confusing to me, but i guess each ROM has different google gapps etc..
But Eragon (for me anyway) didn't do this by default, what I did was install the Google Now Lanucher and use it maybe once, then Installed my usual launcher Nova Launcher Prime and I can use Ok Google commands anywhere on the phone, even at lockscreen, as long as screen is on , so you can unlock the phone with your voice if that's your thing.
I know the Google assistant is the new kinda Google Voice and I ain't to sure of the changes between them both if I'm honest. From what I have heard you can get a "light taster" of Google assistant in the Google Allo app (although I have not tried this). But I can use Google Voice anywhere on my phone with Eragon using the OK Google command, (infact I use it ALL the time in my car - only time i use it as its handy for making calls / texts especially combined with Drivemode app) (& no pressing of speech button) providing you install Google Now and then use your preferred launcher. Obvioulsy as its always listening I guess it will use more battery, but as I only use in car with charger, its cool for me. Anyway, hope it helps you somewhat

I couldn't get google assistant on Lineage at all I'm afraid (see my post above) , under Settings >> Google >> Search >> Voice on Eragon I get full functionality - unfortunately in Lineage it only has minimum Google Voice options (like you cant use voice from anywhere on handset - incl lock-screen)
There maybe a work around, (maybe ask in Lineage thread) but couldn't get it to work, I guess you can try and install Google Now Launcher (then just continue using your usual launcher) and see if it adds any further functionality - not an ideal solution as you have an extra launcher using resources in background, but worth a go

https://www.reddit.com/r/Sprint/comm..._to_uninstall/
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...ote-7-t3451659
i found under apps system apps smartcall, phone and contacts permission off, not sure what this alone would do
does a shortcut to com.android.phone.com/com.android.phone.smartcall.SmartCallSettings need to be created somehow ??
any information or feedback would be great. debating just installing hiya and calling it a day.
Smart Call
I used the app Shortcut Master to Launch com.android.phone.smartcall.SmartCallSettings, it opens the dialog and you can enable the setting. You can also launch perms dialogs with com.samsung.android.smartcallprovider.ui.PermissionDialogActivity
There is also another toggle you can launch com.android.phone.smartcall.WhoWhoServiceSettingActivity - not sure what this is.
In any case, even using these settings / checking system app Smart Call, I was not able to turn on the feature.
Along with switching on smart call, I also installed the attached app. Make sure to open the app at least once to give the app permissions. You may need to restart your phone after installing the app.

Well, worst case it won't work. I'll install it later and see what happens. I haven't gotten any junk calls for several days, so I'm probably due to get a bunch of them.
Edit: Well, I tried it, but no joy. The app started up, asked for permissions, but then just sat there with a spinning circle. Doesn't appear it's going to load.
hi, i wondering if there is any chance to replace the stock samsung package installer app, cuz im using china mainland firmware and local customization inserts ads in it. any time after install process finishes then a huge half screen size ads popup and full of some random hook-ups apps. also the one ui launcher that i prefer the one using google feed rather than so called bixby smart page. thanks!
you could use AppManager as an installer
you will have to have root or you can enable the option via adb, im using the adb option and it works like a charm and you get a little bit more information about the app and what changes are in terms of version number and permissions.
