Whatsapp shows others I'm online untill I kill the app in task manager - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

Sometime after I upgraded my Axon 2017G to Android 7. People told me I was always online on whatsapp.
Even when I'm not using my phone it says i'm online, untill I kill the app in task manager.
Are there more people with this problem or does anyone know how to fix this?
The problem still exists after upgrading to Android 7.1.1
Will a factory reset be an option?

Unfortunately, no! Factory reset would not solve the issue.
Done that. Idk what's the problem with that particular app.

android 7.1.1 b01 and b02 have the same problem, maybe 7.0 not.

Thats why I wanted to downgrade to Android 6.0

And what's the problem with always being online?
Do you see this reflected on the battery performance?

Thats right, I havent noticed it till my girldfriend tell me...
Now I have to use it and slide to kill, I never clean apps...

What's wrong with answering when you can...regardless of your online status.

I Downgraded my phone from A2017GV1.2.0B02 to Android 6 B10, when this was finished, it started normally, but then returned to the Axon screen, vibrating ones in a while, stuck on that screen. Restarting ended in the same screen. After a factory reset, it booted normally, I was back with android 6, and everything was gone. After installing whatsapp, it still showed online untill killing it in task manager. So even this is not a solution. Clear cache partition didnt work either. I have logged in on someone elses phone, and there my whatsapp account worked fine, so its definitely the phone thats causing the problem.

Sound problem

I have one issue, when comes new notification (Whatsapp, Mail, etc...) the sound is distortioned, only the first notification. Like if at sound activation causes this. Anyone with this issue???
Enviado desde mi Z1 mediante Tapatalk
Yep, similar thing happens to me sometimes. It's not that bad, maybe turning off soundfx could fix it.
Me too but not always.
Inviato dal mio Z1 utilizzando Tapatalk
Soundfx is disable in settings>apps.
Maybe software problem?
Anyone had have factory reset in last update???
Maybe can be the solution????
EDIT: Factory reset, don't helps.

I have this problem also and I find it very annoying. Hope it gets fixed soon.
found a temporary solution, just add silent interval at the beginning of notification/rington. audacity can be used, its free
Question to all those affected by this issue... Do you have Breadcrust's TWRP installed? The issue seems to be gone for me ever since I switched to Joao's TWRP.
The same here. Problems are eliminated with Joao´s TWRP. :good:

Can confirm, all downloaded and installing now. Took some quick keyboard work at work to use fastboot and flash back entirely to stock (recovery included) while signing up for the beta. Popped up instantly.
is this the new one ? or this is still the old beta ?
Installing also, looks that this is final build with changelog
Can someone tell us if this is the final version?

If you are rooted with Systemless SuperSu you can still download the OTA as usual then install it with the Flashfire app rather than installing from the prompt. Worked for me anyway.
how do i upgrade from purenexus while keeping TWRP and leaving my file system decrypted? I don't mind wiping my data.

All files are alive after this upgrade. In my case
So, just tried to upgrade.
After half an hour of downloading and updating, it reached the point where the phone restarted itself, but all I saw is an open-android icon with a message "Error!" :/
Simply restarted the phone and back to 6.0.1. Unfortunately.

Hard bricked while surfing on Chrome?

Hey guys,
I would like to ask if anyone was in similar situation. I'm running the newest Pure Nexus rom. Everything was perfect till today. I was surfing on Chrome when phone restarted suddenly. And since that time it's in a bootloop. I tried to flash factory 6.0.1, 7.0, twrp and yet... nothing. Keeps bootlooping. Does it mean it's a hard brick? It's still under warranty though. I bought it from Best Buy on February, 2016. Man! I'm glad I haven't sold my Nexus 5. It's just so small.
Any ideas? Is it over?

@jamescable TRUTH!! With that being Said I would go back to full stock. I'm not sure of your method but I would use Nexus Root Toolkit v2.1.9 with a full wipe. The App will do it all for you. If that doesn't work then it's hardware related but at least it's back stock!
I can access fastboot and flash the newest factory image from Google. But can't get into recovery after flashing twrp nor do a full wipe. It keeps switching between unlocked bootloader warning and Google logo. No matter what I do. I'll try toolkit as you suggested after returning from work.

Ignore the warning, it scary but it's just warning you because the bootloader is unlocked even when flashing stock.

Yeah, I know. I mentioned it for reference. I'm getting stuck at Google logo no matter what I do. When I chose factory reset or recovery it gets stuck there. That happened yesterday while I was on chrome. Phone restarted without a reason and then it started.
I was on the newest PN. Then I flashed stock 7.0 and it's the same. I tried twrp and can't get into it as well.

Had you flashed the 7.1 dev preview by chance?
edit: Or Magisk? I'm aware of a few cases like this, but haven't been able to pin down any common factors yet...
Did you make any build prop edits?

Problem with 500firepaper app and A2017G 7.1.1 B02

Hey guys anyone else having issues with latest upgrade from ZTE and the specific app.
On my device it's not working at all.
Never had issues with previous ZTE software version and neither with many other phones latest years.
When trying to set image by opening wallpaper configurations simple doesn't open or response at all.
I'm pressing it and nothing happens.
I've try clear/data-cache of app not helped at all.
I've try previous version 2.70 nothing.
I've try restart my device and even clear cache partition from recovery menu and nothing.

Well strange things happened.
Downgrade to B10 and worked fine.
Upgrade OTA to B11 and still worked even after resetting my phone.
After that upgrade manually to 7.1.1(B01) and again worked even after resetting the phone.
And now the strange behavior begins.
Upgrade OTA to B02 and not perform hard reset and worked.
BUT when made clear cache partition and reboot the phone and now it's not working.
How can this be happening.
Can you please resetting(clear data) the app and relaunch it and tell me if its working or not.
Something going wrong with B02.
I don't have any other app installed on the device only 500 firepaper.

What exactly does not work? To start the App... ?
Send from ZTE A2017G using Tapatalk
Not exactly.
The app is opening but when trying to open wallpaper configurations through settings of the app simple doesn't open-not response at all.
So in that case I can't set any wallpaper at all either home screen or lock screen.
Btw again downgrade this time to 7.1.1(B01) and made hard reset and setup as new the device.
The only app installed was 500 firepaper and worked fine.
Immediately upgrade OTA to B02 and after that the app stop working.
If go to open wallpaper configurations simple doesn't response.
Something wrong with B02 release by ZTE.
Never had issue with that app all that 2-3 years I'm using it.

I know now. In the beginning you cannot select. It just starts into settings and it is it not possible to set it as a wallpaper.
But I found out that it is not possible to set any live wallpaper. ?

I'm thinking of reporting that issues at ZTE mobile de forum.
As ZTE Germany is the responsible of development and delivering new software version to A2017G device in Europe.
We can report it in English since they allow it.

I'm having this same problem on my OnePlus 3.
I dome some digging and found out this problem has to do with the system app livewallpaperpicker, now that is installed, my phone See's the app(firepaper) as installed and when I touch open configuration it actually opens. Hope this helps, I love this wallpaper app also!
The only solution found for now is enabling confirmation from B01 and then upgrade to B02 is working.
I just must not perform any kind hard reset or app clear cache/clear data.
Then I couldn't make it work and I'm afraid of attempting any other solution because I don't want to broke something.
I hope the next update fix this things for G version.
It's really very very bizarre issue and somehow ZTE screw up with latest update.

I just received the new update for the Messages app. But the Drop down list doesn't seem to contain the "Messages for web" option on it.

Are you running a custom ROM? The people who have replied to say they have it have all said they have stock, don't know yours.
According to this it is being released by handset which would explain why a custom ROM can't get it yet and would also make sense why an AndroidOne Rom would be first.
https://www.androidcentral.com/youre-not-only-one-who-doesnt-have-android-messages-web-client-yet
Also check your Play Store and see if you are certified, this could also be a reason Google have decided not to push it to you yet, actually that would make sense for the rollout.

See me edit above, next thing is to see if you are certified in Play Store, for some reason Google are not pushing it to your phone yet and I can only think it's not certified (check play store(hamburger>settings>last entry)) or not passing safetynet (an app can check this).

You are right. Play store says the device is certified. But safety net check fails. I don't even have magisk. How can I fix this?

Is your bootloader still unlocked, this will trigger safetynet but don't just lock it or your data will be wiped!
safetynet being tripped will stop you getting a lot of apps unfortunately.
