how to prevent some apps install it's wearable part? - Moto 360

Some apps did nothing on my watch ,but it will waste batteries

You would have to do this in an adb shell on the watch. Then get the package name, then "pm disable packagename"

thank you .
Is there any app can do that?

If all you want to do is stop certain notifications on your watch, in Android Wear > Settings > Block app notifications. Then choose the apps to block.

This does not do what you think it does. It only stops notifications, the app still exists on the phone.

[Q] [B506] Background apps get closed and can't receive notifications

Hi all,
Has anyone experienced this with B506? Some apps like Telegram or WeChat get closed in the background just after a few seconds and then if someone messages me I don't receive the notification until I actually open the app (which completely defeats the purpose of the notification...).
Is this just a problem with my phone or has anyone else experienced this?
I know it's the app that's getting somehow closed because every time I start for example, Facebook or WeChat, I see the splash screen (which is only shown the first time an app is started).
Thanks for any help!
Are you allowing it to run in the background, and allowing it to startup at boot?

That's the thing, ever since I flashed B506 I lost that setting in the menu where we had the security options and could choose what runs in the background and what doesn't... I thought this was removed by Huawei on purpose. Do you still have it?

Yes, I still have it, and you should too.
Do you have the Phone Manager app? All the options are there.
In settings, Protected apps is the setting for the background apps.

Ugh, I'm so stupid! I froze the Phone Manager app (as well as a bunch of other Huawei apps) without realizing this one is actually needed.
Thanks! It works now!

Android Device Manager on the 360

I'm pretty sure that with the latest ADM update, I had the app in my app drawer.
I was actually able to select it on my app drawer and make my phone ring. This was a great feature if my phone was lost, or if I had to make my phone pretend ring so I could take a call and get out of a awkard situation.
ADM doesn't show up in my app drawer any more?
Did something change?
Do you mean the find my phone option?

Just tried resenting apps. That didn't work. I'll try to Uninstaller and reinstall.
Ok. Got it back.
Removed app from phone.
Resynced.
Installed ADM and Resynced.
It's back.
Thanks!

Nexus 5x - "Allow" button (permission)

Hi everyone,
Can't push the a "Allow" button when an app asks for a permission. (any apps)
Is it a known issue ? or it can be fixed somehow ?
Thanks again,
Do you have any apps running that do things like dim your screen or changed the color? Many of those are known to interfere with the package installer which I think comes into play when you press those buttons.
No,
The phone has been Factory reset lately....

There is an app overlaying that is causing the issue.
Go to:
Settings > Apps > Configure apps (cog button at the top) > Special access > Draw over other apps
(note the path may be different on your phone, this is how its done on android N)
Turn off Permit drawing over other apps for the apps listed. Do it one by one. Between turning it off for each app, check and see if you can hit "OK" for new permissions.

So? The settings are the same just located in a slightly different location. Do yourself a favor and look for it in the settings of your phone.
Like the XDA noob that I am, I googled it for you and found that the setting is in the same location for MM the it is for N.
Go, flip the switches...
Didn't fix the problem
Thanks anyway....

I wonder if you did it right. So, to clarify, you denied all of the apps listed in the Draw over other apps menu the ability to draw over other apps? All switches to the left and grayed out? Then you tried to open an app that requests some kind of permission? The permission dialog opened but you were still unable to select "Allow"?
Had similara behavior. In my case it was the File Manager HD app.
Only appeared after OTA back to M from N preview.

Is the "Always sleeping apps" option really working?

So is the "Always sleeping apps" option from Device Maintenance -> Battery working? I added all my apps there just for a test and it seems I can still get notifications from them.
What is the use of this option?

Yes it is, the notification service that android uses does not get shut down when an app is closed. that feature is just to make sure the app isn't running in the background, that is all.
and just some helpful knowledge for you, GCM is the service that allows all apps to receive notifications

Yeah, I know about GCM, but I don't really understand the principle.
What is the use of keeping apps awake if you can put them to sleep and still get notifications?

keeping apps in memory so you don't have to use fresh resources

So you kind of just keep the apps that you use multiple times a day there
It works, but it is not as strict as something like Greenify.

Question Simple timer/stopwatch app with always-on screen, no sound

I'm looking for a simple timer app that enables always-on screen while it's running, and is completely silent.
Does such a thing exist for Pixel Watch? I've tried a few but no luck.

You best bet is to gather your thoughts > search the Playstore for any app related to what you are looking for > search for the apk for that particular app > sideload the apk to the Pixel Watch.

Well, I've already done that and tried a few, but haven't quite found what I want. Hence asking here.
