Problems With Applock & OnePlus 3 - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

So here's what happend,
I got My OP 3 yesterday
Rooted It And Fixed The RAM
And Installed Applock.
After setting up applock I enabled the finger print feature and was playing around with it
After some time I cleared all the recent apps and went back to facebook expecting a lock screen
but I was greeted with my wall. Ever since The Applock stopped taking my fingerprint and turned off every time I cleared apps
I tried re installing it,restarting the phone and it was still the same
Anyone Who can help me Fix This??

Lock it ... Open multi tasking and you will see a padlock ... Its not a secure way. You can bypass it as you want. Example clearing cache and data of the applock it will remove "Facebook" from locking apps ... I think via exposed module you will find more secure way to lock apps

In recents menu there are two clear buttons in 3.2.4 where one can either kill normal processes visible on screen or can kill even the background processes, so one with background processes killing even kills your app lock. In 3.5.2 I think they have changed that and you can select which kind of clear all button you need. So wait for update in next version your app lock could actually work.

Thanks for the reply guys, But what do I do for the fingerprint issue, I doesn't work when put my finger on the scanner it goes home.

Which applock have you tried? Try using applock by keepsafe this one I tried it was working well except the clear all background app condition. And I don't think any applock is able to handle that. So once try the app I recommend if the problem still presists post again, I will think of some other way.

Did u try the app I suggested and did the problem solve as I tried using this app and tested your needs it worked for me.

I dropped my OP3 and since then the fingerprint sensor doesn't work. I tried as someone suggested by going to settings and forced stopped the fingerprint part and cleared the data cache too. Then rebooted but no luck. The button just won't respond .Only thing that happened was in the settings the " fingerprint" started showing along with security. But that's just about it. Doesn't show any fingerprint options or settings.
A little help here guys.

[Q] Screen won't lock/turn off

Hi!
After last actualization (off sense and camera) sometimes I can't lock it by pushing power bottom. After restart works. Anyone have a similar problem ?

Probably some App in the background is preventing the lock.
The only app working in the background is Eset and it's working all the time, while those problems are only from time to time.

Hi,
I have a similar issue, seems to start happening when I enable storage encryption (My corporate mail server requires this to use ActiveSync - or I guess could be related to some other security setting that this forces - ActiveSync DeviceAdmin, PIN code, max time for screen lock and encryption).
Any suggestions I could look at?
Regards,
Cameron.
Backup everything you need..Try hard reset..And then see if problem is still there,I suggest you to try some custom rom..or use some RUU..

accessibility service being off automatically

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,

Google app not working in background after Nougat

Hi all,
After updating my unrooted OP3 to official Nougat, I am noticing that Google app can no longer run in the background. That is, any Google Now or Google search that I do in the phone dissappears from the multi-tasking windows as soon as I navigate away!
I tried clearing Google app's cache, data, opted out of the beta program. Doing so does get the app to run in the background as it should but only for a few minutes before the issue persists.
I reported the issue as a bug to OnePlus days ago but no response yet!
Can anyone help with this please?

Thanks.
Aggressive dose isn't enabled.
Actually, I have even tried freezing the app from the multi-tasking windows (clicking the lock toggle at the tip right corner of Google app window) and even that doesn't work.

The lock toggle is useless. Half of the time apps are cleared even after that lock. But still your situation seems quite odd. Are you using updated version and if your rooted you can try uninstalling the app and reinstalling it.

Notification LED simulation App

I stumbled on Reddit at this cool App that simulates a Notification LED using the actual screen. It was also featured on XDA and I decided to give it a try on the Mi9T. The App is called NotifyBuddy and is available for free on the Play Store.
My experience with it over a whole day was great. It actually looks like an LED lighting up. Since we have a Amoled screen it just uses a tiny part of the screen, so there is no huge battery drain. Also to prevent burn in it moves slightly in position every 5 to 10 minutes or so from left to right. You can have different colors for different Apps and how long the LED effect will be active until switching off. I have mine on for 5 minutes.
My major concern was battery life since when the App is active the phone probably doesn't go to deep sleep but after now 24 hours of the phone being unplugged I can say it's great. Just look at the Screenshots. I'm at 50% right now and almost 4,5 hours of SOT over 24 hours of usage. It works very well so far and if this doesn't get worse there is no reason to not keep it. Try it out guys if you are missing a Notification LED on the actual front of the phone.

Doesn't work for me, do you use your fingerprint scanner to unlock because I suspect it might be conflicting with that. None of those similar apps ever work for me
Doesn't work for me also, there its no way to make it work
Weird. It works for me
Doesn't work for me. I use fingerprint scanner. Wish it did work though, as this would be really helpful.

I guess you granted the app the required permissions ( asked when you first launch it) and allow notifybuddy to start in backgroup, display on lock screen ?
I'm running MUI global 10.3.10
Can anyone confirm who does have it working, that it works with fingerprint unlock?

I advise you to try this:
1. Remove the fingerprint.
2. Run the application, when you first start, allow notifybuddy to run in the backgroup, display locks on the screen.
3. And then create a fingerprint.
4. Reboot the phone.
A
- I received the 10.3.10 by OTA... (you can manualy check for update into the "about phone" section)
- NotifyBuddy is working with Fingerprint unlock activated. The fingerprints where created before installing the app.
Tried deleting fingerprint before installing the app.
Then tried again after.
Could not make it work. If anyone has any more suggestions, they will be very much appreciated.
Using Global Stable 10.3.10.0
Doesnt work with AOD
this should be a feature in custom roms.

Prof Reminder. Use this app and forget about any other app that involves notification LED. I use this app since i received this Mi9T. I was upset for missing the usual notification Led and i have searched for other options. This app does not consume any battery and is very easy to set up. When you have missed notification (WhatsApp, sms, call, etc), this app reminds you over and over.... Sorry if it's off topic or something but i just try to help! Respect!

Dude, you "saved my life"with this application.
I came from a OnePlus 3 and never had a Xiaomi phone before, and the lack of a visible LED was annoying me a lot.
I had it work for all of 5 mins and no matter what I try I cant get it to work.

Question Apps opening automatically when phone in pocket

Most of the times when I unlock my phone after pulling it out of my pocket some apps are opened automatically. I mostly see battery setting, Camera, weather and messages apps. Does this means my phone is hacked or is there any other possibility also?
If it is hacked, is the factory reset only option to fix it or there is any other option also?
It is most likely an issue with pocket mode. Pocket mode on F3 is just terrible. It could have happend that you touched the fp slightly while putting the phone in your pocket, it unlocked and accidental touches were made. It happens to me quite often and it is annoying. Try putting the phone display facing away from your leg in your pocket and see if that helps.
I had the same problem, when you put in your pocket, it unlocks when your finger touch the sensor... In the Settings for Security/FingerPrint unlock, select the fingerprint sensor unlock to "push" instead of "touch".
Thanks for the reply guys. Looks like @Magister54 trick worked. I havent seen that issue in past 2 days.

It is not available. And for some reason, there is apparently no ROM with this feature except MIUI.

Ah ok. Thanks
On crdroid there is an option that only allows the finger print sensor to work when the screen is on.
Does anyone have a good solution to this? I'm getting a bit tired of pocketcalling people
The feature in MIUI where you have to push the fingerprint sensor instead of touch sound like something that could solve the problem. Or perhaps the crdroid option HewettBR mention.
Is there any other ROM with a solution?
I'm running ArrowOS now but guess I have to change to an other ROM...
