Weird issue with unknown sources installs - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've noticed on my gpe when I go to install an apk I've downloaded, I can't press install. It's not grayed out or anything, it's just not responding to the press. It's fixed by a reboot. Only mods I've made are gravity box and the optimized dalvik and bionic libraries. Any ideas why this is happening?

Turn off Lux, Screen Adjuster and other 3rd party color settings apps, I know it sounds dumb, but just do it. Then run the APK again. Install should work again.

How weird. Thanks

Problem with external apk

Hi, I'm having a problem with this tab, with stock LG firmware.
If i try to install an apk from my external sdcard, it doesn't make me continue, the confirmation button doesn't work, only the cancel button.
Is anyone having the same problem?
Thanks
SOLVED!
I've used adb install <file>.apk and it worked.
BTW I thinks this remain a bug ....
I have the same problem.

Do you have unknown sources enabled?

yes
If you have some app like "filter your screen" enabled, disable it and you'll be able to install apk.

[Q] During audio/video playback the volume rocker and back button DO NOT WORK

Hello. the volume rocker button and the Back button do not work during any kind of audio/video playback. They function properly once I stop or pause the playback.
I can not get to the bottom of this since I uninstalled all xposed modules and apps that I think might have been causing this. I am running the "ERA project mod" along with viper4android. I know for certain the butons had been working with these mods running. I have no idea what happened
Any advice is appreciated

What I would advise you, is to make a proper backup, then wipe the dalvik cache, cache, system, reinstall the ROM and then try to put back the backup.
See if its working, if not, maybe one of your modules, when you uninstalled it, it messed with some files.
But I still think the first step is to backup your files and do a clean install.

Thanx for your suggestion...
Surely that would be my last resort.
I'm actually trying to avoid that and see if anyone with a similar problem actually found out what's causing it and found a way to remedy it.
It would also be great to actually know how to prevent it from happening in the future. Right now I have no idea thus I may run into the same problem after re-installing ROM

Button "Ok" doesn't work. "Cancel" does

I have a weird problem for a long time now and I'm not able to find a solution.
Sometimes a press to "OK" doesn't work (no reaction") but pressing "Cancel" works.
I have it mainly in three different cases.
- Installing new XPosed module. I can't install because of this.
- VPN confirmation dialog. I can't use VPN
- SuperSU. Aksing for root permission. After disabling "TapJacking protection". It works.
Because of SuperSU and one post in XDA I think it's a Lollipop bug in the TapJacking protection implemantation by Google.
I searched the web. Find only a few posts but no real help.
Wipe App and Dalvik cache doesn't help. Disabling all Xposed modules doesn't help.
Z00AD, 4GB, 2.5GHz, Stock 2.20.40.97, rooted, Xposed framework installed. Still locked bootloader.
Nice and easy fix that one. Just sleep lux whenever you want to press ok. Lux causes the issue.

Never thought it's an App issue.

Enable quick wallet access Google Pay for Pixels running Android 10

Has anyone got this working? I've done everything and the new power menu appears and the Cards and Passes does show up in gestures for about 30 seconds and then disappears. When press the power button it only shows the new power menu and not the cards.
https://www.xda-developers.com/enable-quick-wallet-access-google-pay-pixel-android-10/#disqus_thread
Same issue here. I don't even get the option for cards and passes in gestures menu....
i had to reboot like three times and then the cards magically appeared. It's not something that works instantly.

Thanks. There is something else connected. I did this mod yesterday and have rebooted multiple times. Are you on a custom kernel?

Got it working, but my option to enable it appeared in a different place.
Maybe do a reboot, put your code in if you have one, and then just let the phone sit for awhile.

I'm on a custom Kernal. Booted many times and the gesture appears but still disappears in a matter of seconds. Very frustrating.

So am I. I wonder if there is a correlation between the custom kernel and the gesture not appearing.

Well the dev didn't specify in his installation instructions that you needed to be on a stock kernal. The only requirement was to be in Android 10. I've tried a few reboots and nothing.

Ah ok. Very strange. Not sure what are or not the full requirements are for installation. It's a bit vague from the dev and no real support on it.

This is what I have installed. My GPay has been working for a long time with these modules installed.
Do I need to do anything else?
The gesture just disappears after a reboot.
Working here :good:
Working fine here. I had to reboot 2 times, disable and re-enable the toggle in order to make it work. Now it runs perfectly fine

Those are the correct modules and it should be up and running.
After reading things, they sound like scripts so that's why I suggest letting it sit for a little after you boot up. Try reinstalling the modules and try to get the option to come up for you once more.

Ok I'll try and reinstall all those modules. Yes as they are scripts it may take a few minutes to run but they don't. Not sure if the permissions should be changed or correct. The creater has another module like this for the live caption which I installed and again are scripts and run perfectly so not sure what's going on. After multiple reboots it appears in gestures and just disappears and nothing happens. See attached.

Tried reinstalling all the modules again and toggling the switch on and off and while doing it in gestures again it just disappeared. No idea what's going on. Not sure if one of my modules is conflicting with this module or not? Just strange it's kind of the same script as live caption but just does not want to play ball

Updater not showing in settings

Using star2lte: lineage-17.1-20210121-nightly-star2lte.
It's only a minor problem because I can always do adb sideload but I'm sure is was there at one time. I can see the updater in the apps but I can't see any way of running it, also new updates are not announced.
Is there any way of getting the updater to run again?

Nice. I can reproduce this picture with disabling updater app.
Ok, that's interesting. How did you disable it, or more appropriately how to you re-enable it? It's possible I may have disabled it by accident.
I've just checked under Apps, and it's is enabled, weird.
Thanks.

Settings apps all threedotmenu system
Just tried that. For good measure I also stopped the app, cleared cache and data and then enabled the app. After that I restarted the phone. And it's still missing in settings!

Updater keeps stopping, I guess that's the reason it doesn't show. The question is: why does it keep stopping?
