Several problems without any fix/workaround - Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers

Hello!
I have my phone, 2 months, right now and compared with my previous G4, I like it(except the camera)
Now, I have:
- unlocked the bootloader
- rooted it with magisk (Super SU was loosing root from time to time)
- installed xposed
- use gravity box and systemui tuner for other tweaking
- Elemental X kernel 2.03
-build number 25.137-92, Android 7.0
Per general, it works very well, but still have some problems.
I have searched fixes for all of them, but I am writing here, maybe other have found a way to solve it, or they have a workaround.
1. random reboots. I do not know why, it seems they are not related to an application or something
2. if call is longer than several minutes. after I end call, the screen remains black. Probably an error for the ambient light sensor. is there a fix for this?
3. increasing ringtone. Can this be disabled somehow?
4. Very weak signal. And the biggest battery drain is related to the signal. Right now I have one day of usage, but I know that I would get more. Also, I had to move the SIM card from slot 1 to slot 2, because the signal suddenly disappeared
5. Reboot loop, when I activate GPS, and I search on Maps, and when I start navigation
6. WiFi not connecting automatically. I have to press quick tile, ant let it open until it connects to my WiFi
7. At some point the signal for SIM1 dissapeared. I had to switch to SIM2
8. In call volume was low. Every time I had to make it louder
I would like to remain to stock, because custom ROMs, have lower quality camera, and also heard that Moto application don't work on them (I use the fingerprint sensor for navigation and the option to turn on the screen when I take the phone in my hand)

Defy+ with CM72 losses all communication sometimes

I've got latest CM72(7-SKANKY) installed on my defy+(TW ME525+ or MB526) and the system's so smooth that impresses me a lot
however i found the 2G/3G connectivity broke several times and i need to reboot to fix it
situation is the signal strength(indicator?) and 3G/H icons on the upper-right went white(or grey?) and all phone connectivity seems not working anymore
when it happened i cant call a phone or get access to networks and it seems the system didn't know the connectivity had lost
(when making a phone call it goes to the "making phone call" screen and no any sound or calling timer appear)
i even tried airplane mode to reconnect but it doesn't response anymore until i reboot
(the button/option went grey(light) and nothing more happened.....still grey, but not system hanging)
now only a reboot could fix it:
removal of Juicedefender seemed not help. even the newest nightly build from quarx2k.ru has same problem on me
my kernel is now 2.6.32.9-g6977577 and using 3.4.x(TW/HK) Baseband
Does anyone know how to fix this problem? thanks alot^_^

From Alcatel Idol 3 (6.0.1) to Axon 7 (7.1.1) - Notification problems

Hi Folks,
I try to keep my remarks / questions as brief/straight as possible.
Some days ago a huge German electronic-chain called Media Markt offered the Axon 7 for only 229€, for only a couple of hours. I could not resist although I was very satisfied with my Alcatel Idol 3 (4.7) with Android MM.
Now I installed the exact same Apps that I have been using on my Alcatel on the Axon 7 (Android 7.1.1, B04). I do not have the problems that some are mentioning on various fora like connectivity issues (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, cell). My settings are Wi-Fi (always on), Cell on (but not data on so far, not in the need to do it), GPS sometimes on, Bluetooth sometimes on, Display very low, no automatic.
I have some weird notification issues with various apps installed by myself and strange behaviour with system apps.
Wherever it was possible, I've chosen the same settings (Energy, Apps) as with my Alcatel on Android 6.0.1.
But, I rarely get notifications (for example AquaMail, WhatsApp, eBay, etc.) or, I hear the notification sound (when my phone was on stand-by) but the symbols are not shown in the status bar, notifications bar?!?!?
Another strange behaviour is that of my podcast app, called Podcast Addict:
I listen to a downloaded audio podcast, pause the playback, for example to get a coffee in the meantime, go back to my phone, unlock the screensaver and the pause symbol that was shown in the notification, status bar on the device before I left the phone, is not there any more!?!?! I have to open the app again to continue listening to the audio file. The exact same applies for the stock music player.
Or, for example I receive a notification for an incoming WhatsApp message, shown on the notification bar, I do not open WhatsApp, the notification symbol should/is still visible, but after the screensaver has been activated (set it to 1 minute) and I have to reactivate the phone (be it by fingerprint or by pattern), the symbol is no longer there.
Another strange thing. The phone was in stand-by, I heard a notification sound, activated the phone, there was no notification symbol on the bar. I knew what App it was, so I opened it and yes, there has been something going on (the App is called Quizduell).
All these bugs (?), problems have never occurred running the Alcatel smartphone.
This is pretty annoying.
I already switched off the phone, wiped data cache, without success.
Maybe some of you can help me out, give me advice on where to look for the problems to be solved.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Cheers Christian
Change the power policy of each app to off which u use mostly in power manager in settings.... It will most certainly help you out..
@germanyandroid Do what the other guy said, that's really impoetant. Also what system are you on? A2017G B02?
I don't know what the Axons are shipping with right now. Be sure to update at least manually to 1.2.0 B02 (that's Nougat), to rule out any system problems. Welcome to ZTE's horrible OTA system...
Hi! Thanks so far for your help. Most notifications are now coming in without changes to the Battery Optimization settings. There is something wrong with these settings, which I will report in a separate thread.
Again, thanks for your help thus far.

Any owners of the Redmi Note 7 see problems & bugs?

I've had the Redmi Note 7 for a couple of days now and I've picked up some issues. It would be good to know if anyone else pick up on this or found solutions.
1) Google Maps causes GPS to lose lock if 4G network is in use:
I've set the "Preferred Network" setting to "Prefer 3G" (instead of "Prefer LTE"), then Navigation works flawlessly.
I've used the "GPS Test" app from the Play Store to test if the GPS actually works while connected to a 4G network - it does actually lock. The moment Google Maps is launched, GPS loses lock and GPS Test app reports much lower SNR values.
[UPDATE] I also tested this with Waze and the same issue is present. All is fine with 4G enabled until you start navigation - then GPS loses lock...
[SOLVED] 2) Gmail and Outlook push notifications seem to not work - no matter what settings I change:
I've Googled this problem and tried all the suggested settings for making it work - like setting battery optimization to "No Restrictions" and allowing all types of notifications and setting it to be "Important" instead of "MIUI decides", also locking the apps in the recent apps view. Nothing that I do makes it work. (Whatsapp notifications work though.) Outlook has a "Test push notifications" button that just throws an error when pushed...
[*NOT A* SOLUTION] I got fed-up trying all kinds of settings so I did a factory reset, miraculously got it set to English again, installed all the Google stuff and installed the latest Google Play apk that I could find (simply updating didn't work). Push notifications work now and the "Test Push Notifications" function in Outlook actually returns a "Success!" prompt. - This worked for a day or so....
[SOLUTION] I installed the PNF app (Push Notification Fixer) to make push notifications work...
Any confirmation of the above issues (and possible solutions) will be much appreciated.
Install or reinstall Google services seems to fix the GPS problem, ( it's work for me)
I'm using this link :
https://www.androidexplained.com/redmi-note-7-install-google-play/
Now, I have quick GPS fix with 4G/LTE enabled!
So perhaps it's simply an app bug?

Thanks for the info.
I'll try re-installing Play Services tonight (when I'm back on WiFi). I have installed a newer version of the Play Store than was installed by that Google Installer - to make push notifications work (for a day). Now I had to install the PNF app to make push notifications work permanently :-/

you saved my life. I bought the CN version and thought there would be no way to install play store without rooting.
It's resolve many little bugs with some apps too.
Problems with Redmi note 7
I am using redmi note 7 from a couple of days. Problems that I noticed are:
1) proximity sensor not working properly. I did check in CIT test, its not responding. When i restart phone it is working.
2) when someone accepts your call then phone should vibrate. But mine is not vibrating. I have done a check over settings, in settings it is there that phone will vibrate when someone accepts your call.
3) I have problems with touch also. It is responding to every rubberized things like earphones wires, my backpack etc. My previous phone don't do that.
4) Phone is unable to block unwanted gestures while placed in pocket. For example when i am talking in a call while placed in pocket using earphones, my call is getting cancelled due to these unwanted touches with cloth of pockets. This will also come under proximity sensor issue.
So far everything is great, after factory reset that is, since before it was so laggy that I was pissed off enough to bring it back. But since factory reset, everything is fine. Still encounter occasional stutter here and there, but updates will fix that, I guess.
P.S. camera on this is phenomenal.

I'm struggling with the exact same issue (highlighted) here, using Redmi Note 7 as well. When I'm using my bluetooth earbuds and the cellphone is in my pocket, something is making the music stops for less than a second and then again and again until I stop walking. First I was thinking that could be a bluetooth connection issue, now I'm afraid that it is like you said, a touch or proximity issue. I don't know what to do.
Notifications are bad, took me so long to get Gmail to work!
Also my ambient display just doesn't work at all.
WhatsApp keeps not acknowledging contacts.
This is my 1st time on miui and I really regret it, the os just messes with every single app!
I figured this helps somewhat:
Settings>battery& performance>chooseapps>press the dots in top right>showsystemapps>longpressanyapp>select all>pressmoreatthebottom>norestrictions. See if that helps =) good luck lol
my bug is about battery, 100 to 97% real quick in less than 2 minutes sot. but significantly less drain 97 lower. my sot can last up to 10-11 hours btw.
When I receive or make calls, the remote end experiences a lot of echo.
The work around is to turn off the speaker phone when making calls or receiving calls.
Another issue is if I use headphones then I get local echo!!
It appears the problem could be due to the fact that I have a Chinese version running Global ROM - not 100% sure but it appears to be so.

Battery stats aren't that accurate so as long as you get those long sots you should be fine.

Random (maybe network related) reboots on my Note 7

Hi guys, has anyone experienced this? The device just sometimes rejects the fingerprint saying "enter pin after reboot". This is mostly random, a few times it was awkwardly correlated to switching from WiFi to mobile net. I felt like the frequency went down when I disabled CDMA and EVDO in the network types, but it still happens. Reducing the CPU aggressiveness to power saving did not help either (I thought maybe the power delivery cannot deal with high spikes?). After everything, I feel like it must be related to the RIL, because moving fast (in a car) and leaving the home WiFi are the main triggers. When it happens at home, I could imagine my flaky WiFi had a hickup - other devices lose WiFi sometimes too. Anyhow, I'm still not sure, and I don't exactly know where it would be logged.
Here's my setup:
Firmware - fw_lavender_miui_LAVENDEREEAGlobal_V12.5.1.0.QFGEUXM_39f6c7990f_10.0
System - lineage-18.1-20220903-microG-lavender
- Additions -
Magisk-v25.2 (normal ramdisk install, not recovery-type)
> AccA by MatteCarra
> Fullscreen/Immersive Gestures (Q-T)
> LSPosed-v1.8.4 zygisk-release
>> XPrivacyLua
Well if anyone finds this googling for the issue: Switch off night light, somehow the device is super unstable with that enabled...
