Device Policy app in launcher - wasn't there before - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there...
I have just factory reset my Nexus 5X after installing the 6.0.1 January update and after running the initial setup wizard, I now have a "Device Policy" app in my launcher which wasn't there before.
Did something go wrong during setup or is this normal in the latest update?
Side note: My default ring and notification tones were set to none after setup, this is strange... did not restore anything
Update:
I did another factory reset and now everything is fine. No Device Policy app, ringtones are set correctly.
Seems that interrupting the initial App installation (Like Google Docs etc.) also interrupted other configuration steps or whatever...

[Q] Standard rom - Can't find or download any app from android market

Hi all,
I have a standard HTC desire on which I lately have problems with the android market app.
Yesterday I could not download any updates from installed apps - I got the "download failed, try again" message.
I tried to empty the cache from the market app, tried to restart the phone and I also found a suggestion to empty the android_secure folder on the sd-card. That didn't work either.
Then someone suggested I'd reset my phone to factory settings, but unfortunately without succes. Since doing that (both before and after restoring my backup'ed apps and data) I get the same message again. I am not able to update any app I have on my phone at this stage - they are displayed in the market app but downloading fails.
(I was at first able to select apps I already had installed on my phone from the market-website via my laptop browser and have them delivered to my phone, but that stopped working also - it weren't the updates anyway.)
Now every time I start the market app it crashes the first time I start it and then after restarting it displays the message "Application not found" for any app I select (either to be updated or new apps).
Anyone who can help me on this one?
Apparently the problem solved itself. I had the feeling the phone performed much slower though and did another reset to factory settings and since that everything works fine again!
Problem solved...

forced factory data reset, and setup wizard not working

Hey everyone, I unbricked my moto g4 this morning, after replacing a corrupted sd card. I installed lineage os 15.0 and micro gapps for android oreo, however, when I booted I received a black screen and a notification that the setup wizard had stopped. this notification was looped so when I clicked close app, it would pop up again. I booted into factory mode, disabled the setup wizard and moved past that problem only to face another one: When I received phone calls, i would get an "advanced settings has stopped" and go into a forced factory reset. after a little experimentation, the phone did not reset every time I received a call, and I stopped receiving the advanced settings error after turning advanced settings off. In an attempt to fix the problems that just kept popping up, i tried another factory reset, but now I'm receiving the same problem I first had: a black screen and the set up wizard has stopped notification, except now, I can't boot into factory mode and solve it. Is this a common problem with an easy solution? or can somebody help me out? I have twrp and bootloader mode, but that's all i can access from my phone right now.

After a number of wipes, restarts, permission changes (all failed) I solved the problem by simply updating the ROM in the system settings menu. Go figure....

Device freeze and can't login into Samsung Account

I have a rooted S9 (Android Pie), and i changed something on the vendor partition (libsecure_storage magisk module). During the next reboot, the phone needed 2 tries to start and then randomly freezed, so i changed everything back to the original form. But now i can't login into my Samsung account (processing failed), and when i set a password for security sometimes the touchscreen stops working and after the restart my background is gone and some settings are set back to default. I already loaded an old Backup of System and Vendor, but nothing changed, is there something i can do besides doing a reset, like changing something in Boot or Data.
Thx for the help

A320FL rooted - After factory reset at initial setup Google Play services crashes

My phone is a Samsung A3 2017 - model SM-A320FL. Specs: Stock rom oreo, TWRP 3.3.0, magisk 19. The phone worked fine, but got slower and less free space over time. So today I decided to do a factory reset.
- I booted to TWRP
- Format Data
- Reboot to recovery
- Format Internal Storage (to make space)
- Installed RMM-State_Bypass_Mesa_v2 and no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0
- Installed Magisk 19
- Didn't install TWRP system app.
- Reboot to system
Phone boots and I get the initial setup welcome screen to select a wifi network. After that Google setup starts, presents eula, and is looking for updates, but after a few minutes I get the message that the Play services stopped (app stopped) and Google setup starts again. Endlessly. I don't know how to solve this. I did a new factory reset, tried a newer version of magisk (20.4), but no success. Every time the same error message pops up and I can't get pass this screen.
I don't get it, because nothing changed since the last time I was able to install TWRP and magisk. Same ROM, same software versions.
Anybody?
So let me update my own post. I managed to skip the initial setup, by removing my sim card and also not selecting a wifi network. Then you can continue and don't have to log into Google. After finishing the initial setup I still had issues with setting up Google play. Every time I started the setup, the app crashed. I download a recent version of the Play Services and installed the apk. But no luck. I also tried to copy it to the system apps folder in the hope it will be installed with a factory reset. But also no success. In the end I had to restore stock rom with odin, and then reinstall twrp and magisk. That was for me the only way to fix this issue. Hopefully this helps others with the same problem.
