Possible Quality Control issues with ZTE Axon 7 - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

Pros:
beautiful screen and overall a nice phone, got headphones with pre order. and am excited about the prospects of a new flagship phone.
Cons:
Camera stopped functioning today, it was delivered at 4:10pm July 27th, it is now 5:05am July 28th as i write this. Customer service is closed and i've already gone through wiping the cache, formatting and factory resetting the phone. removing my sim card and SD card.
formatting again, clearing the cache on the camera app
then resetting the phone and clearing the cache and reinstalling.
i even went so far as to stop google from recovering my downloads from the playstore to be on the safe side and insure that the phone was completely stock out of the box.
and i got "Unable to connect to camera,Camera has been disabled because of security policies or is being used by other apps" the phone and the flashlight are not functioning. and installing 3rd party camera apps doesn't fix the issue.
Will follow up if ZTE is able to give repair steps that don't result in mailing my phone back to newegg.
Other Thoughts:
Would not recommend to anyone at this current time, as this same issue plagued another phone of ZTE's called the ZTE max and seems to have followed to their newest flagship
if anyone has a fix for this sort of issue please let me know otherwise ill do a write up based on what ZTE provides to me later on today

me too lol :good:

Do you think it's possible that you revoked its permission to use the camera? I would check the app manager.
Other possible solutions I found:
* Turn off OK Google detection from any app
* If you can boot into a recovery mode, wipe the cache partition
* Turn off face detection smart lock
* Make sure camera shortcut on the lock screen is enabled
* Remove any Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account you might have setup

I haven't revoked permissions although i did check again. i formatted the phone a total of 6 times and had it bare bones. however when the camera doesn't work neither does the flashlight. so a tail tail sign in the past has been if both dont work. an RMA is needed. hopefully ZTE will be able to help sort this out so i can amend the post content to reflect their customer service.

I've done all of those things with the exception of Turn off face detection smart lock as the phone didn't have any locks enable at all. ill enable and disable just to see if any of it sticks, worst case ill update post with ZTE/Newegg results
I appreciate your help !

One last thing to try: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lrodlor.camless
I looked up the error message and it seems to have something to do with device policy. This app should be able to change the camera policy.

Let me know how that goes.

It didn't work but.
I hope its resolved relatively soon as well.. i wanted to post pictures so people knew i wasn't just slandering the phone or anything. i have tried different camera apps. but they dont work. nor does the Flashlight feature in the quick launch. i looked up old threads on similar issues and saw people doing things from disabling security certificates (all of them manually because the clear option was greyed out.) and i spent about 20 minutes doing that while on hold with newegg since ZTE was closed. hopefully this issue will be a fluke and it wont be the same with the second and third phone i have coming.... one tomorrow and one tuesday because that would be disheartening.

Gee, read the ZTE USA forum and it seems there are several random issues plaguing some users, and not small issues, hopefully software based and will be remedied with updates. I will do a wait and see approach before I order, I'm in Australia and will have to use a post shipping house, as not being released here, so quick if any warranty maybe problematic. Will want to make sure everything is honky Dory before committing to a purchase. Maybe back to opo3 if not resolved.

Did you get the problem camera/flashlight resolved?
Thank you

The only issue with this phone I've read about is the dust inside the camera lens. I have some particles there but I don't think it affects the picture quality yet.

And the broken OIS (incredibly common) and the lack of an antibricking measure in place and the screen dying because it didn't like your hand's humidity... ZTE replaces the phone with all of these problems luckily. But when they have stock.

*Edited* NeoBuddy's ICS v7 Is open again and this thread is now closed !

TO All NeoBuddy was able to make amends to the dev he offended and I want to thank Jrummy for his stand up attitude and assistance in resolving this issue.
Listen carefully now, no more trolling or flaming will be tolerated, if we see this going on in the any of neobuddy's threads they will be closed. ***Heed this warning***
Move forward and enjoy your ICS as I do.......***The Moderator***
Just in case anyone was wondering, I believe the thread was deleted by a moderator because it contained pirated apps.
anyways, it was deleted while i was replying to some of the comments in the thread, good thing i ctrl+c'd my reply before i hit 'submit'. I'm sure we aren't allowed to link to the rom any more, but we can still discuss it and any issues with it.

Ok, so I added .nomedia to my clockwordmod folder and titanium backup folder in the root of the SD card. The media scanner quit eating battery after that. Results may vary... (i have not done the init.d mod, wondering if I should)
So far no big hiccups, I'm really digging v7. Great work.
Problems:
GPS when turned off doesnt appear to be to happy trying to turn back on without a restart.
Cant find/mount my external microSD card (doesnt show up under external_sd or sd)
Samsung official car dock will not keep the display on (but whats cool is in the desktop dock i now have a neat clock with the display staying on)
In car mode the phone goes to side orientation, but the actual call (when your in a call) does not switch to side orientation.
Can't edit the display settings for the home screen (icons, and "dock options) they just activate and never go to a menu.
Question:
I KNOW I saw a TV out option somewhere..... /sigh

how'd you do it? i did a "batch restore" and it seemed like it worked, but none of the apps show up in the app tray.... but titanum shows that the apps are "restored".... also i'm trying to restore the "data" for a couple games as well, so it has my scores and stuff that i've unlocked...

hey guys, just curious what is the notification toggle app used for? i've never used it.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it lets you put shortcuts in the notification pull-down bar, for example, the most useful in my case would be the "USB tethering" page, so when i click it, i can choose to tether via wifi or usb, simply by pulling down the notification bar. the "icons" are completely black so it doesn't get in the way.... also the actual button you press on is extremely dark so it's barely noticeable, but just noticeable enough that you'll see it when you need to click it.
my question is, it might be a simple question, but in settings > more > what's the "WiFi direct" button do? and how come the apps that i attempt to restore with titanum backup aren't showing up at all? are they even being sucessfully restored?
also some goods tips would be in Rom Toolbox, go to the Performance tab and click on build.prop Tweaks and change the Wifi scan interval rate to 180 from 90.
also in Settings go into Developer Settings and turn on the Force GPU rendering and also in that screen, also change the HDCP checking to "never use HDCP checking"
I knew that would happen eventually when I saw things like root explorer in some of his roms. Bummer, I like his work.

yeah, but all he has to do is remove those apps, and simply reupload.... well since he had an ongoing dispute between the mods, it might not be possible to repost on xda, but there's always gonna be http://rootzwiki.com/forum/71-vibrant/
Looks like his backup, rootzwiki post was taken off too...
oh, and for reference, for people who have lag on their v7 roms, here's what neobuddy posted to fix it (again):
I suggest you need to flash fresh after doing these steps:
1. Open zip file on your PC.
2. Delete /system/etc/init.d
3. Place THIS file in system/bin
4. Flash it. Enjoy no lag but less quadrant.

you would "right click" that link, and save it to your desktop and remember to DELETE THE EXTENSION (the .txt), so you would have to "view extensions for known file types" in your windows explorer to be able to erase that part.
For titanuim backup i restored by doing a batch but having the apps ask to install one by one. Takes time but thats what brought them back with their data no system apps.
Didnt know what happened thanks for the clarification on the removal.
Hope things get straighten out.
Still on the hunt for the hd playback issue anyone got some ideas.
Choppy vid playback
yup, its not in the rootzwiki vibrant developer forum
hope he can repost soon or get another forum up and going. Just got home and was looking forward to reading the thread more... Good luck nb

Sorry guys, first of all.
I am pretty sure which guys/group reported and got removed Passion thread, not worth disclosing name.
XDA got topic removed due to no Source Code posted and Hacked Apps included.
I agree its my mistake to include hacked apps (which I won't include in next versions)
RootzWiki removed due to such apps used without consent of main app developer. Yes, the app code was from other app.
There are many topics in the Developer Section which contain such apps without consent of Developer. However, they were never reported..
I will be cleaning these apps and make new Topic at other Forums after having talk with Nelson.
I have PMed moderator at RootzWiki to clean the links and restore the topic but I am not sure if they would.
If you are on Facebook, please join this GROUP.

Sprint's new emergency alert system on any 4.1 NS4G roms

I was playing around with some different aosp roms the other day and I thought since the new emergency alert system Sprint was so kind to give us in the 4.1.1 ota update is such a great new feature to have maybe I should try to get it to work on a rom other than the OTA. Well, it turns out it 'just works' by default!! The app will not install the traditional way, but if you copy it to /system/app and change permissions to rw-r--r-- it works! The menu shows up in system settings>wireless & networks more> cell broadcasts

For those wondering what it is, because I had no clue about this:
http://www.fema.gov/commercial-mobile-alert-system
FEMA wow, no way is this coming near my phone, eff that
YAY! Now I can be informed via Klaxon that rain sometimes causes flash floods. If you use this, keep your phone on mute or people in theaters and conference rooms will hate you. Personal embarrassing experience talking here.
I would be okay with it if you could shut off the alarm. Trust me, it's nothing like any other notifications else that exist on your phone. I want to know about Amber Alerts, and very severe weather events, but this appears to be all or nothing. Imagine the chaos if everyone had this on their phones and they all went off at once, which I assume must be the intent. Talk about shouting fire in a crowded theater. Not well thought out, but neither is FEMA.
for the record this was on an epic 4g touch, i assume the same behavior on anything else unless the federal govt is building device specific apps

did you not see the screenshots I posted?? There are toggles for different types of alerts. And you can turn notifications off, as well as test notifications. Also, if you don't like your alarm notification, just change it. We live in a world where rooted phones are possible and you can do these things It's as easy as swapping ogg files!
no, actually i did not, thank you for calling my attention to them. apparently pictures get cut out when i access xda from behind a firewall, literally looks like there's nothing there on pc, but tapatalk on my ns4g has them. Maybe they are getting it right, I will have to take another look at it. When I found it on my nonrooted e4gt, it looked nothing like this.

Great rom.
I tried playing around with it and for some reason it wont work.
Idk i really want to have this feature but for some reason i cant figure it out.
Lets just review.
I move the apk to /system/apps.
Then fix permissions to rw--r--r.
Reboot
Fix permissions in cwm.
Reboot check settings?
Is there something im missing?
Try accessing it from Messaging app. Hit settings.
If I can find some time this afternoon I will flash RBJ and see if I can figure out what's up
I will also look into it also but not for myself, lol. I hate the alerts.
This works on today's port off rasbeanjelly for ns4g by rustyjay. I used root explorer to move the apk to system/app, changed permissions to rw-r--r--, and rebooted. No need to go to cwm.

This is easy to work around with Greenify(by app) or Smart Connect (by time). Even without these though, I don't have this problem with 5.0 or 5.1. Maybe just get in the habit of closing apps with the task switcher when you're done.
For me, I think there is an overall lag, an overall hiccup in 5.1.1. I did a clean flash.
Ok, no redraws but the overall response seems to struggle.
Also when I am talking it sometimes seems to turn on the screen even if the proximity sensor is near my head, but this is not a continuous situation, so I will have to check it a little more.
All in all, my biggest concern is the overall struggle of the phone.
EDIT: Even the wifi antenna seems to struggle. In places in the house, where reception was perfect, it is now ok, and where it was ok, it now struggles to show me content.

Good post, eventually links to this Xposed module which looks like it fixes the problem. There's a poll on the original developer's thread which has many people voting that the module fixed it for them. I also reviewed the source code, it makes sense that it would fix it if we are understanding the problem correctly.
I checked my counters, it's definitely happening for me, but I haven't seen an unreasonable battery drain yet. I installed the module anyway and will check my counters later today to see how they look.

Did you have ClearAudio+ enabled on previous versions? I noticed that it is OFF by default on 5.1.1. That may be the difference you're hearing.
Battery life seems much better.

Google will not fix it until Android 6. Sony hasn't announced whether the Z1 will get Android 6, it's so far away.
You can try the Xposed module above if you want. I just installed it today, not enough time with it to determine if it works or makes a difference, but the original thread seems promising.
xasbo said:
Good post, eventually links to this Xposed module which looks like it fixes the problem. There's a poll on the original developer's thread which has many people voting that the module fixed it for them. I also reviewed the source code, it makes sense that it would fix it if we are understanding the problem correctly.
I checked my counters, it's definitely happening for me, but I haven't seen an unreasonable battery drain yet. I installed the module anyway and will check my counters later today to see how they look.

Did you have ClearAudio+ enabled on previous versions? I noticed that it is OFF by default on 5.1.1. That may be the difference you're hearing.

Let me know if you figure out anything consequential. I mostly listen in the car, so I do not nitpick.

I am having a problem getting my OP5 to work

IF someone could take time out of your busy schedules I would be most grateful and could make it up to you
I got the OP5. I used it one day, yesterday. Today I am sporadically able to get on the internet, most of the times not. I started getting a KEY icon in the status bar
I googled and searched to see it has something to do with an APN or VPN I don't know what they are, I am sorry
I tried to read how to do it but got intimidated on different ways, one manual one another way, on each site. Many ways
I tried to work it out with OnePlus Service. Their service has a lot to be deserved. The first guy didn't know what it was. The second was, I sent a screen shot, he said he'd talk to level 2 and call back
45 minutes later, I got an email saying "Thanks your issue has been solved" I tried to call back, to no avail. Closed
If anyone could walk me thru it, here, private messages, email I would be most grateful. I have lets say a few health issues and parents I need to reach, and have no land line
I don't want to return the phone.
Thank You
Eric

Are you in the US ?if so which network ATT or T Mobile ? have you installed the OS update that they pushed out today ? oh and the best way to contact OP support is via the CHAT app. you shouldn't have to monkey w/ the VPN settings. UPDATE: they are about to push out a 4.5.3 hotfix update.

Have you downloaded any battery saving applications,? Doze, etc.
I would start uninstalling 3rd party apps, starting with the most recent ones.
I am on Tmo in the US. I got an update yesterday but none today. Who are you with. Any problems. Do you think it is that APN problem?

I'm on T Mobile and have never had a problem w/ T Mobile and OnePlus (and I've owned EVERY model they have put out). You should not have to touch your APN settings at all. Currently your OP5 should be on Oxygen OS 4.5.2 and they are pushing out an update tomorrow (4.5.3) but I don't think either update has anything to do with your issues. I assume you have your T-mobile Sim card in slot #1 correct ... it will tell you that information under settings> SIM & NETWORK SETTINGS. Below is a screen shot from my OP3T, but the OP5 looks the same. Make sure the Mobile Data is turned on as shown. When all else fails....just do a factory reset and start over. Make sure you are somewhere that has WIFI if you have to do so, makes set up much easier. And again, I only ever have to go to this settings when setting up a new phone if I want to turn on VoLTE, all the other settings are factory set.

most probably a wrong vpn setting. Try gong to settings>more>vpn and delete any vpn listing if there are any
Jerry, Alan.....thank you. Jerry my settings are exactly as they are in your pic. I found that Lookout has web browser protection on and when I take it off, it works...sort of. I have used Lookout on many phones and this wasn't an issue. Many say Lookout and similar is not needed?
Well when I went to the VPN setting, a Lookout icon was there, I deleted it.
But my email is not working and I'm not sure how related. TypeApp I cannot set up my account and log in. I was able to log into K9 which I don't prefer, but regardless, I am not getting notifications.
Thanks a lot for your help. As I believe I stated in my post, I am well aware that when people volunteer to help they are taking from their personal time.

Lookout ? I haven't heard of that "lost my phone" app I'm YEARS, haha. Didn't know they were still around. Android has "lost my phone" built in now. Ya don't even have to turn it on now. As for "email" apps...I have always just used GMAIL app. Sounds like you are just having various app setting problems. If you mean actually HEARING notifications ... Make sure your notifications slider is not turned to the middle "do not disturb" setting. The slider of course is on the left side of the phone. It has 3 different positions.
If does look like app incompatibilities. I am able to get online uninstalled Lookout antivirus. I don't need one? T-Mobile has given us Pro for years

1-I never install apps out of play store
2- I never install any caller ID App (as it doesn't work in Pakistan yet)
3- I've formatted my cell and installed all apps (which i always had on all my Android devices but this problem never occurred)
4- There is no such Caller ID app in bloatwears or apps (in settings section)
5- when i click the links on that screen it takes me to a website page which is whosthat dot com
6- I've Googled it and it says DU caller ID (although I've never installed it)

Hey buddy I think I have solved it, it's a theory which is working till now, I had once visited TrueCaller online portal from my Chrome browser on my cell, although I had given consent for my Microsoft ID i think i had enabled some sort of notification thing or so, previously I had removed true caller web site in settings from my chrome, now again last night I formatted my cell and installed fewer apps but I haven't synchronized my chrome bookmarks and till now the cell is working fine, just a theory might be wrong but it has been 12 hours my cell is doing fine. test it and then let me know, please. I'll let you know if this theory fails.
thanks

I do not have this problem but I've experienced similar things in the past when you get very annoying adverts that prevent phone from sleeping whilst it's connected to a charger.
It usually come with an application. UC browser is very notorious for this. Turning off notifications from such apps could help.

Hi!
My mom met same problem at xiaomi redmi 3.
Solved it today, but have no garanties that it solved forever, but i hope.
I'm sure that it's connected with Caller DU, because if you press "private policy" in window after call, it opens page from DU caller's site.
Then i just install that f**in DU Caller, turn off all of it's features and then delet it and now i have no annoying popup messages.
just in case, sorry for my english

I had never installed any caller app on my phone still I started receiving those popups and in privacy policy, I read the email address, emailed them and luckily within few weeks they replied but was not sufficient as they didn't tell me the root cause neither the solution was helpful, so i checked all apps one by one and bingo, it was chrome, just didn't restore chrome bookmarks after factory reset and everything came okay
