Update Issue

I would have suggested Smart lock but that is not compatible with your device. As for Good Lock not working after the update, your not alone. Information on this is in the link below

Im not familiar with your device or how the new update has created issues but it might be caused by incompatibility with Good Lock or perhaps some other user app. The best way to find out would be to turn off you phone and reboot into safe mode. Check on line for the proper key combinations.

clipboard

There is a wonderful app I use called Clipper+ it's like the clipboard (which only remembers the last thing you copied). Clipper+ stores the last 20 things copied: so you can go back, tap on one and it loads that into the system clipboard, ready to paste. There are also things called "snippets" which are like a persistent copy, and they stay stored there until edited or deleted. So if you have something that you want to paste quite often, you can store it as a snippet. I love this app and highly recommend it.

Thats great, I glad that app works well on your device. Having twenty things copied to the clipboard is a very useful feature. The clipboard on my Note 4 hase 20 already and Im not sure if that was stock or part of my custom rom. To tell you the truth, I have a vague recollection of the stock OS, I just dont remember anymore. Anyway, you also mentioned a feature that I had never heard before called "snippets". Thanks The-Chief, I will download the app and give it a try.

Isn't Geofencing DESIGNED to work in background?

I have been struggling a lot to get geofencing working on Android.
In my mind, geofencing was created to be able to send notifications when an app runs in the background and the user crosses a fence. Doesn't it work like this on Android? It does on iOS...
But whatever I do (and I followed Google samples and advice) I can't get it to work in the background. It always stops at some point whatever I do...
And my onReceive is only called when the app is running.
HELP! Any advice as to what to do?

Thank you!!

We'll do our best to help you, but first you need to help us. :)

Please take a deep breath, calm down, then write coherent sentences [with punctuation] explaining the issue. Be as specific as possible.

The following info will help:

- which app you're using
-- a link to its Play Store page if possible
- when did the problem start?
- do you recall anything unusual happening around the same time?
- can you reproduce the problem?
- tell us your phone's manufacturer and model
- posting a screenshot would help a lot

Help Playback isn't starting when connecting bluetooth device

Hi,

when i connect my OnePlus3 (LineageOS 16 with root) to any bluetooth device i start some apps in background using tasker. This works without problems, the only problem is the audio player. It should start playing after bluetooth is connected or the player should be able to player when i press the play button on the bluetooth device. But this doesn't work every time - sometimes playback starts, sometimes i can start playback manually by pressing teh play button and something nothing occurs. then i have to unlock the phone and start playback directly in the player ui. after that i can controll the player with the bluetooth buttons. I have this problem with all my smartphone (oneplus3, xperia z2 + z3), with all my bluetooth devices (2 head phones and the bluetooth in my car hifi system) and with all android versions (stock rom 6, lineageos 14, 15 and 16).

also the player is not the problem. It occurs with the normal audio player also with podcatcher (antennapod and podcast addict).

Is this a know problem? is there anything i can do?
