Hi, Oneplus 3 with 3.1.2 stock OS. Whenever an app tries to set permissions such as at install I get the dialog Screen Overlay Detected and have to go to settings, turn off overlay for network monitor pro, then try again. After that I have to switch network monitor pro overlay back on so I can see the download speeds.
Is this expected? Coming from a Nexus 5 I have never seen this before, if it isn't normal can anyone suggest a remedy? Thanks
Its generally caused by some app you have installed recently. I can say Facebook or Facebook messenger. Remove them and set the permissions again

I haven't got Facebook, no apps installed that weren't already on my Nexus 5 that I moved from. Is there any way I can definitively find out which app could be causing the problem?

Network monitor pro is the problem like you said.
I'm using screen equalizer to 'fix' the OP3 screen and that's also an overlay I need to switch off when I install apps from sdcard.
Just do this...
Reboot into safe mode and enable the permissions required for every app and then boot back into normal mode.
This will fix it...!

Unfortunately not, turned off all screen overlays, rebooted into safe mode, enabled network monitor mini pro and then rebooted into normal mode. When an app wanted to change a permission, listronic wanted access to contacts, I got the screen overlay message again. I had to disable the screen overlay, retry listronic and then reenable screen overlay again.
It's driving me mad! I take it nobody else is getting this, why me when I'm entirely stock?

Had the same bs while using LMT, so I decided to unistall LMT, because those permission bs drived me nuts.

EDIT: Thanks to @gewa2001 for the solution. Apparently, the Smart Manager app is whats causing it. If you're not rooted then try to disable it or if youre rooted then you can just Uninstall or Freeze it with RomToolbox and it should fix all the screen freezes.
So i just recently installed the N750XXUDOK5 Firmware for N750 on my Indian variant of the phone. Everything seems to be working just fine except i've been experiencing some screen freezes. Like, it just so happens that im using something and it just suddenly freezes for 4-5 Seconds and then starts working fine. And it happens quite frequently so its kind of annoying.
Also, i dunno if its related but i've noticed it usually happening when i receive a message on whatsapp, just as i get a message a bunch of whatsapp icons pop up on the status bar and then merge into one which then displays a Heads up notification and causes the screen to freeze.
Is anyone else having a similar issue/ is there any way to fix this ?

Same here: occasionally system slow or even frozen since 5.1.1 (no factory reset, but debloated and rooted). Mostly on lockscreen, around twice a day. I switched off the new "app optimization" feature in the new 'Smart Manager' today. No more screen freeze since then. What's YOUR observations?

How to switch off 'app optimization' within the SmartManager app (I got the German language version, so your tags might be called slightly different in English language) : tap on the 'battery' quadrant, then on 'details', then switch to 'off' by using the upper right on/off slider.

Aha. For some reason the Smart Manager app on my phone doesn't have any sliders but i froze the app via Rom toolbox and the rom seems to be not freezing anymore
Guess thats what was making it freeze. Thanks!

I just removed the samsungs weather widget from my homescreen and it reduced the lockscreen freezes to almost 0. If i put it back on homescreen and turn of my device and wake up after 1min, i was getting serious freezes and this helped me a lot.
I froze smart manager using titanium back up but occasional freezing up to 5 seconds still occurs. Will try uninstall.

Just flash the rootable kernel for 5.1.1 from the xda forum and u can root as well afterwards if u want and then no screen freez will iccur. This is the sole method for removing and such issue. Flash THAT KERNEL. THATS IT. no other remedy will ever help

Very annoying when I need to change a permission setting and it nags me about turning off an overlay. Two apps that cause it for me - rotation control and sidebar. Anyone else seeing this sometimes?
Rebooting the device fixes it for me.

It's very common, usually it happens with filters like twilight or screen dimmer. The only way to change permissions is to temporarily disable those apps and then re-enable them after you're done
Same thing happened to me with Amazon music. Kept putting me in a perpetual loop. You can go into the app permissions and grant them manually.
If it won't let you turn permissions on, then you can reboot your phone into safe mode, enable then, and reboot phone normally.

This has nothing to do with OP3 specifically, it's android (I have had the exact same thing with my previous phone, Xperia Z5 Premium)
The new Android doesn't want apps to approve permissions with out you knowing so they block permissions from being approved while apps that cover screen have that ability. It's a pain in the ass and I wish I could stop it because I use swipe pad. I just turned it off and figure after abt a week I'll have all my daily apps thourughully approved.

Hi,
I am using OP3 from last 1 month. Some app required accessibility service to be on, I observed that accessibility service being off automatically. Like applock, voodoo, freecharge, 360 security. Because of this applocks fingerprint is not working
Also sleep(turn of display) sometimes not worked
Any other faces this issue??
What is the problem? Can someone help me to solve this.
Phone is not rooted.
Thanks in advanced
I'm facing the same problem since updated to 3.2.0. In 3.2.1 the problem persist.
Till now the only solution was to boot in safe mode and grant to apps access everywhere.
Also not rooted, 100% stock.
If anybody knows a different solution I will also appreciate.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk
been having this issue myself - another relevant issue is that when you enable an accessibility service the PRE-BOOT PIN screen gets disabled.
O don't know how many people have this problem, I've tried to report also on oneplus.net but there till now, nobody reacted.
Forgot about pre-boot pin, your right buddy.

3.2.2 is coming let's see, it it resolves
got 3.2.2 - have't had the issue come up yet but it's only been a few hours
Both the start up pin and the accessibility randomly turning off are google issues and not directly related to the oneplus.
For the accessibility service randomly turning off. try turning off the battery optimization for the app that needs access. see if that works.
This might work for the pin. Also might have to redo it every time you reboot your phone.
If you have Require Pin At Boot enabled: disable "require pin at boot" option, enable Accessibility Service, and re-enable the security option.

You have to turn off the battery optimisation for the app that uses the accessibility service. This will fix the issue.
This fixed it for me at least.
I tried this, after cleaning apps from recent app option. After this service being off, even if battery optimization is off for that apps,

So, sometimes Google smart lock stop working and I need to disable it, reboot device and then enable it again
This is the fix I use https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/smart-lock-not-working.686667/#post-17143976
But it is not permanent, at reboot or randomly, Google smart lock stop working and I need to re-enable it again using that trick.
Someone found a permanent solution for that?

It's really annoying. Mine does it all the time. In some occasions opening an app that uses GPS seems to help it kick in, on others, the options on the smart lock page have gone. At that point the only option, like the OP, is to remove the screen lock all together, reboot, and the reenable it. Rescanning my fingerprint is getting boring...
Hey
Don't know if you still have the problem
But I found out that it is something to do woth greenify
Disable and reenable the alternative lock screen mode

Hello all,
My settings app/menu keeps clsoing on me. Whenever I go into it, it will stay on the screen for a second and then close. I removed some apps via adb but, none or so I thought, had anything to do with the settings menu. Does anyone know what could be causing this or have a fix for it?
