[WORKAROUND] Waze storage issue - Huawei Nova/Nova Plus Questions & Answers

Hey guys!
Finally received my Nova and I was isntalling some apps it. I installed Waze just to see that it occupies 12 gig from my storage! WTF?! Hahahaha
Someone aware of this and how to solve it? For now, I just uninstalled it and downloaded just gogle Maps.
EDIT:
The problem seems to be related with specific language packs. For workaround this issue you must be rooted. Just download another language pack for your language (or another language that suits you), go to /data/data/com.waze/waze/sound/ and removes the folder related to the default language pack and see if it solves for you. For brazilian guys, Alessandra language pack causes this, now I'm with Mario language pack and I don't have the storage issue anymore.
EDIT 2:
It seems that waze download default voice pack everytime you reopen it, even if other is selected. Then the storage issue happens again. You just have to remove what it re-download
EDIT 3:
I just found out an ultimate fix for this bug. Inside the folder of the bug voice pack, there are some files with 0 B.
Go to the folder of the alternative voice pack you downloaded (if you don't, then do) and replace this 0 B with the other! BANG, PROBLEM SOLVED FOREVER (APPARENTLY)

Jup.. me to... I thought what is the cause of my low storage - BAM! Waze is taking 8.5gb of internal memory. Reinstalled but after some time the same.
Had 'B100' software, got OTA to 'B140' today now reinstalled waze, will see what will happen.

Your model is the european or the chinese? Mine is chinese, CAZ-TL10. Maybe there is something to do with this. Obviously it doesn't occupies this much, it is an error with reading app storage. For me, it become displaying the wrong storage after downloading voices.
I'm thinking in trying to installing the european firmware and see if things go better that way.

Hmmm I'll try.
Strange because in my victara, waze is just fine. But I'll try to contact the team

I contacted Waze's team, but they verified that it wasn't waze's bug. In other words, it is a EMUI bug.

I'm on a LG G3, same problem here... So I thing it is a Waze bug.

OnePlus 3T here, Waze taking up ~10.5 GB. Cleared data and all, but after I signed in it went back to ~10 GB.

I have a workaround for this issue. Check the OP

Maybe if you report this "fix" to the waze team, they can figure it out what's wrong and fix it!

I have a Honor 8 and been having this issue as well. Since my phone isn't rooted the solutions I've found online haven't been applicable to my device. I emailed waze support team and they said they didn't have a permanent solution for this issue yet. However they asked me to help them out with some logs I debug mode. While I was doing this I managed to avoid the issue were waze starts to consume so much space. Try the instructions below and see if it works for you too.
1. Uninstall waze
2. Change your standard language on you phone to English.
3. Install waze, log in and leave it running.
4. While waze is still running, go to your phone settings again and change your default language back to what you prefer.
5. Manually change waze language to the same as on your phone.
6. Exit waze app and restart it. You should now have the your preferred language on both your phone and in the waze app and the storage waze consumes should not be more that around 150 MB.
Good luck and hope this can help some of you with this issue. Feel free to ask questions about this and I'll try to help out more (even though I'm just an ordinary user).

copilot code cannot be loaded by the system (???)

Hi,
I have a strange problem I was using copilot and it was working good. After upgrading to 1.6 firmware I decided to format android and clean it from some apps.
I installed again copilot and it went well, but when I load it it says
"copilot code cannot be loaded by the system" and it doesn't load anymore.
It is very strange to me.
Any idea?

1.6 broke Copilot. You'll have to wait for copilot to come up with a fix for it.
Yeah same happened to me, 1.6 broke it :-(
Works fine here....
Are you using the latest version of copilot?
Legit version that you bought from market?
copilot works here on cyanogens latest. or at least, it's a laggy, slow, almost-as-good-as-a-standalone-gps app. i aquired mine from alternative sources, and realized it wasn't anywhere near a regular standalone gps unit. since then i've dumped it. nice interface and all, but just too much lag.
google maps is decent enough for me on the road. i mean, i can make a block if i miss a turn or whatever.
Laggy? You just gotta wait a minute after it starts up in order for the system to stabilize. Copilot is *big*, so the CPU goes nuts on initial startup when other processes get blown out of memory and such.
As for standalone GPS's.... well, my GF's tomtom wanted to send us on a retarded route, so I started up copilot and it took a beeline straight to the objective. If you ask me, its WAY WAY better.
And google maps for navigation? About as horrible as it gets. Miss a turn and you're screwed. Copilot reroutes automatically as needed. Copilot also reroutes around bad stuff (like traffic jams). Learn how to use it and its great.

Nope I have CoPilot_v8.0.0.327-kfc2.0 version.
Go buy it.
anyone got a fix for this ? One of the main reasons I went for the HERO is to have a GPS SatVan unit with it... Can anyone suggest a good free alternative ? I find the font in Google Maps too small to make it a vaible option.

The latest version of copilot works fine with all versions of android up to and including 2.1.
I am a paid customer of copilot. for that reason i can say these things. their customer support sucks.
i purchased copilot while using a CM rom in sept 09. everytime i updated my version, i would have to re-download from the market. no biggie. same thing with docs to go, my backup, and other paid apps. i understand their concerns of pirated software. well, one day i decided to try some of the other roms as well as try danger spl, etc. i installed dwang. not a bad rom. i tried to re-download my copilot app... and my troubles began.
it would fail on download each time. never even loading 1% of the app. went back to cyan. still no good. i then went through each and every version released since sept. 09 to see if that would help. nope. i even unrooted my phone! still no good. during this time i searched every FAQ on copilots mother company's site. the one relevant answer i found was that you are supposed to unregister your software before moving to another phone. i guess the other rom registered with their system as another phone. well after a complete wipe, reformatting my sdcard, new rom, etc., i couldnot unregister the program. i tried for a month solid trading respectfull comments with their support guy. respectfull until he treated me like an idiot and made a few snide remarks. anyway... i finally accepted the fact that they were in no way going to give me a copy of the apk. so, i tried a copy from a site i found. i followed the instructions they had on the site, except were they said use some pirate license, etc., i used my authentic information. a short time later, i had my program back.
so, the moral of this story is this: if your legit and need support, you will get half @$$ed support from them. if you are legit, follow the instructions provided on some of the pirate sites WITH YOUR AUTHENTIC INFORMATION and you can get your stuff back up and running. had the jerk support guy just sent me the apk after confirming that i was a paid customer, and told me how to install it, i would have had mine up and running a month earlier.
i have had better support with 1 and 2 dollar app developers than these guys. pathetic.
oh, a big kicker. i sent the guy screenshots of me trying to download the software. he had the audacity to tell me my problems were caused by me using a non oem rom and that google doesnt allow that. what a putz. after i informed him of the fact i had been on the same non oem rom when i purchased the app, the theory of open source, and the fact that my rom was developed with the same sdk that they used to develop their program, and that google fully supports developers, he never responded to me. i then informed him of the fact that i reactivated my legit program using pirates instructions.
no wonder why their ranking in the market place is going down drasticly.

Blah blah blah.... copilot works fine and this is NOT a copilot/alk support issue that you are talking about... it is an ANDROID MARKET issue.
Changing the ROM does NOT require you to unregister the program. It registers against your phone's IMEI, which is constant REGARDLESS of SPL/Radio/ROM/whatever.
There was one version that had some registration problems back a couple of versions, I think they revamped the registration procedure and broke it -- it was replaced fairly quickly. The latest one works again and is actually fully compatible with 2.2.
And FYI: Asking them nicely *does* yield a copy of certain older versions. They don't keep around copies of every version known -- just the "major stable" versions, like 606.

CoPilot favourites not saving

Hey all,
Any Copilot users here? Are you able to create any new favourite locations? The process all seems to go through properly for me but then no favourite is created, even my recent destinations doesn't update itself, it's like something isn't able to be written to. Anyone else?
I'm using OD 3.1.0
Thanks
Russ
I'm sorry to say, but if you bought copilot you have to contact the official support. If you did NOT buy it: GO AWAY - these requests are not wanted in here!
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Woah there horsey, that's a big assumption! Someone needs to decrease their righteousness.
I did indeed buy it, no dodgy copies here and I have contacted support directly but sometimes knowledgeable people with faster response times can be found on here.
i have no problems saving favorits on my copilot, im using version 8.2.0.218, i dont know if this is of any help but if you run copilot without the gps on it dosent seem to save anything you do
Same version here, GPS is definitely on too. Could be an Opendesire ROM issue maybe?

try clearing the data & cache in settings/applications, see if that helps
That was the first thing I tried. Then I uninstalled and even deleted the folder from the SD Card and reinstalled from scratch downloading the maps again and everything...no luck

maybe you should try a diffrent rom then sorry i cant help more, but its defo working on mine
Thanks anyway, appreciate the input. Lets hope an OD user stumbles upon this thread
I'm going to make a suggestion here, now don't think am saying this is better than that but have you tried sygic mobile maps instead? I use it myself and it's available from the HTC store so does that say anything for it?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I had this on my Hero when I took the sim out so can't really help. I tried NDrive when my Copilot expired (even though I purchased it months ago) and didn't like it at all (the UI wasn't very polished). Good luck if you contact Copilot support, they aren't the quickest.
I had that problem, updated to version v8.2.0.251, and the problem seems sorted.
Ooh yeah just noticed a new release today, has fixed it for me too, must have been a bug.
On a loosely related note...do you still have the option to turn off the "Welcome to Copilot Live" speech greeting when you start it? Seems to have disappeared on mine or I forgot where it is
No, lost the option to turn that off, along with the annoying beep every time you select something.
Same here...I'll send a message on twitter to their support
Good Luck,
I did report these as a problem by email a couple of weeks ago, and they notified me about the update 4 days ago. At least they solved the major problem in my eyes, only two more to go.

Calculator talking to me

The calculator app is saying what numbers I push. It started doing it in the middle of using it. How can I turn it off?

hi,
ok it seems its some bug ?
This is wat i did,
on device.. settings/accessibilities /Services... turn off all "Services apps that is enabled.
eg. i had under Services.. Pushbullet, Greenify, Enhanced Sms. & Caller id etc. etc enabled. I had to turn them all off. Working 100%
Good luck
I found that the settings of text-to-speech options affects the talking calculator.
I just changed the language from English to any other language, then the calculator spoke the other language.
So, if the text-to-speech is turned off, the calculator will be quite. But no idea how to turn this off...

hi,
it is logical that if caculator "speaks" numbers etc. it is using a text to speech voice option. eg On my device Note 4 or my Note 3 or other, i have Samsung voice, Google voice or SVOX installed. If i disable it a lot of my apps won't work. This is not what is causing problem. (If you search around xda threads you will find thread where this solution was posted, unfortunately i did not save link at time) Try option in my post above and you will most likely see it works, but you have to turn off all apps listed in services.( The text to voice is mere a tool)
good luck

It is so stupid I will have to try these fixes later
Unfortunately I cannot disable everything in the services menu as I have a pebble watch and it needs it.
I guess I'll have to get a different calculator app.

OMG
i've been crazy lurking around for the possible solution of this stupid voice text on my calculator as well.
I had made a thread regarding this and people from here has no idea about the solution for this problem.
i went to the settings, manage apps, all and deleted google text to speech and disabale samsung text to speech.
thats the time it will stop working. BUT, once you close all your recent used apps the voice message will go back again! WTF!
after how many centuries of searching for a solution, finally!!!! the horrible voice is gone when pressing the
stock calculator. downloaded dodol launcher and used it for 3 days and uninstalled it!
voila!

Finally figured it out on my device, it's the samsung text to speech engine causing this issue. Since I'm rooted i froze it through bloat freezer and it worked perfectly. I still have google text to speech enabled and that doesn't interefere.

Maybe a bug in these initial firmware version... hmmm... anybody else that can think about something else?

Thank you alot , i recently changed my Sim card and that actually worked :laugh:

After setting up a brand new J7 and moving my apps over using Smart Switch app I had the same problem. The problem was the Smart Switch app didn't properly transfer over a couple of the apps. The background processes made their way over to the new phone but the app icons did not appear anywhere. The fix I did was to uninstall those "ghost" apps and then reinstall them. That resolved the problem. There were other quirky problems with other installed programs - all resolved by running updates on all Apps as well - all caused apparently because of differences between my old apps OS and my new phone's OS and the inability of Smart Switch to deal with those differences.

Hi there!! Strange behavior in my Note 3 SM-9005 with Havoc-OS 3.7 using voice match

First, I asked this question in the Havoc download forum and seems to be in this one so here I go again, I´m from Spain and my english is quite short so please be gentle if I do something wrong, there´s nothing that I could teach or contribute, only my experience like a noob user.
I´m a normal user and it´s quite amazing for me that I did what Havoc-OS intructions said for installation and run at the first time, so good for you that made that a guy like me did not brick my Note 3 :angel:
I´ll try to explain what I did since my phone has Havoc 3.7 last weekend :
My note 3 is running, all the things that I use to work with is running fine, I checked almost everything and from wifi, phone calls, sms in and out, gps, google maps, music, mp3 (I play guitar and sometimes I use the phone to practice), I also changed the ring tone with one created by myself (and ACDC cover...), like I said almost everything is running like new, what it´s bothering me and I try to fix (because I´m stubborn) is the google assistant, it has happened to you that only a tiny thing is not running and even you don´t need it you have the need to how to fix it? That´s what is happening to me.
I can use the google assistant and the kindly girl answer me what I ask when I play the button but it´s impossible to me to get voice match configuration to use Ok Google, and I received near 60 messages each day with error trying to connect.
I try everything (in Havoc forum a kindly member advise me to clear data and cache) and did not fix it, I uninstalled google and google assistant and installed again and always when I try to go to Ok google/voice configuration my phone try to connecto to internet and shows "Connection problem, check your connection and try again"
This is not a big problem for me because I´ve been 4 days using my phone with all the features that I need but this small problem has got a personal matter between my phone and me...and being serious, whith all the forum pages that I read in english my head is nearly to explode.
Thank you if you read this stupid story and thanks in advance if you could lead me to the solution because I feel that my phone is laughing at me!!
First fo all I want to say thanks to the member Atrankas to give me some advices to fix my problem, seems to be that there´s no people with this issue.
To update the information if it could be useful, I followed Atrankas advice and I made a clean installation but this time I use the pico Gapps, for some reason the nano Gapps gave problems to me with Google play and google asisstant and the microphone did not work properly.
Now I can use the assistant but I cannot get the voice configuration, the button appears in grey and when I try to make the Voice match the system shows me a screen configuration looking for wifi and shows an error.
Maybe is my phone problem or rather my problem because I don´t know how to do it...but I´ll try to find a solution, if I find something interesting I´ll come here to give information.

Thank you very much, now I know is not a Rom problem (cannot find users with the same problem that fixed it), I like a lot this rom and runs like a charm, the configurations options are endless and now I have my old note 3 like new for my needs
I took the opportunity flashing a few differents roms, some of them with android 9.x and the problem remains so I´ll check what you told me and see what happens, but I don´t want to flashing more roms because I´m not experience enough and don´t want to brick my note 3...again!!

To update my research and if it´s usefull, I tryed everything I read online, in this forum (if there´s a solution I could not find it or not runs in my phone) and outside...in google assistant forum thread there´s a lot of people with the same problem so I quit searching
I tryed so many things and flashed so many different roms that finally I bricked my note 3 trying to find a solution installing whatever I found when I had everything running and configured perfectly...
So I did a clean install from android 5.0 and I flashed the Havoc-OS 3.7 rom again, maybe a next google assistant update fix the issue.
Now I need a couple of beers...if someone find the solution, please join me!! :highfive:
Well...continuing with my lonely conversation, I don´t know why but I just tried to start Ok Google and surprisingly my Note 3 took me to voice recognition and now is running!! Why? How? don´t have an explanation, I have the updates disconnected and I only installed Microsoft teams app lately for my job purposes this morning and maybe I´m haunted by ghosts because I did nothing, only check the google assistant sometimes to check the Voice match...
Only with Wifi cannot use Ok google because send me to wifi error because cannot get ssid but that´s fine, I love Havoc Os and finally it´s running.
But in my job I use to say, I never trust anything that fix by it self...so We will see

Hey @Bacilus dantracis . After researching the log provide by the google app I actually found the problem. I guess with Android 10 google limit the user app to access the privacy data, so even Google Assistant made by them it cant access the the trained voice data which is used to trigger the app.
In our case, Google app is installed via play store(not included in nano/pico gapps) so it is recognized as user app instead of as system app like the in the stock factory OS.
The solution is very simple. Just make the Google app as system app. It must be in /system/priv-app/ folder. I tried to move it to /system/app but it is still not working, after more investigation I realized that the apps on priv-app have more permission access. After I move the app "Ok Google" command work flawlessly( On Wifi, I didn't put simcard on my note3)
You can move it manually or use Apps Systemizer module on magisk to do that. Hope it'll for you too

This is one of the things that I´d like to understand, I´m totally noob but I like to know the "why" of things, with my limits
I´ve been looking into my phone settings some things but consciously I did not change anything without testing and then going back to avoid screw something because I use a lot my phone in my job (and now It´s amazing how it works!), so thinking about it, could be that I changed anything that made the assistant works...this use to happen touching things without knowledge...some times fix it, sometimes don´t (and brick is one of the things I´m scared!)
Now it´s time to bed for me my friend, but tomorrow I´ll check word by word your post to try to learn more about this issue and understand what has happened, not because I need this feature (only when driving is more useful to me), just to learn how this works. (and for fun!!)
Thanks for your support, now I know that what is not in this forum is not outside.
cheers!!
P.S.remember I´m from Spain and my english is a little bit slippery!!
