Has anyone run across issues with the MobileIron SecureApps module not being found after previously working just fine on the most recent OxygenOS Beta 13?
Yes, Mine is constantly losing configs, saying its not registered but works again when a force check in is done.
You know how your work has the config set up? I just finished deploying for our work environment using android enterprise and it is working flawlessly with exception of a few add-on launchers. I run several different ROMs and it works on all of them.

I am not sure. Now that I am on OOS Beta 19 it only seems to happen much less frequently. I have found you can just go to the Secure Apps app, it will prompt you for your password, and that this is enough to get the other apps (Mail, Calendar, etc) to see the Secure Apps and allow login. My Help desk raised a ticket with MobileIron, who acknowledge that they are aware of the issue. Now that I know I can get access restored by logging into Secure Apps module, it is not a headache anymore.
Why do you use such piece of software on rooted devices?

I am not rooted. That is what the Secure App module checks.

So, mobile iron fixed this issue, I was reading through their android corner the other day. Should've posted the content here for you. When I get back to work tomorrow on Monday, I'll try and remember to post the fix.
It's pretty simple, just have to enable secureapps at startup, but can't remember where to do this.

Since I'm running AOSP, I'm not really running into any issues. I'm also using my device as a BYOD, but hopefully this helps.
I'm trying to install the [email protected] app on my device OnePlus 3 which is running on Oxygen OS 5 (Android 8.0.0), I'm getting similar error message. With Oxygen OS 5 there is no option to Enable Secure App Manager or modify App Auto Launch settings. What is the work around? Please help.

I checked the mobile iron forums and have not seen a work around for Oreo. Strange however, I have it installed and everything is running fine. Are you using the device in a BYOD environment or in a corporate owned state?
A lot of [email protected] has to do with the way it is set up (phone to server), so without knowing all of this information, I can't necessarily recommend any fixes.
Can you throw up some app settings and screen shots by chance? Please blur out any information before hand that is no one else should know.

Just gave it a go, and the app seems to make it though Step 1/3 but it gets stuck on Step 2 so I'm assuming it doesn't work.
Edit: It removed the ads from showing up using Macrodroid. However there is a consistent Macrodroid notification.

I did this a week ago, it's been working well. Macrodroid had an option to disable their logo too. Go into Macrodroid, settings, Notification Bar options, Force Hide Icon.

The problem with that is that it shows full screen ads without the notification there and you can't clear those.. So I have to keep the Macrodroid notification consistent

Oh ya, you're correct. I forgot about that because I've had my Weather app always have a notification on the lock screen.
Update: When messing around the Macros I found a way that you can hide the persistent Macrodroid notification along with Amazon Ads.
Videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCUhxGFJ8g0
So basically I added another 'Clear Notification' to MacroDroid in Macro 1,
and in Macro 2, I checked the override Macro creation box.
After that I went to MacroDroid Notification settings and checked to Force Hide the notification.
So basically now when I turn off the phone screen, I wait a few seconds and if I peek at the current running notifications using the Moto "Glance screen", you will see the MacroDroid notification, but as soon as I power on the screen, the MacroDroid notification as well as the Amazon AD dissapears and I am left with my background.
Anyone can explain why do I have such a lag after switching the phone on? Seems like it leaves some locking screen/widget/program (you can see that it shows time if you scroll down notification bar) and disappears only in several settings
Anyone tried of these methods to boot into recovery without unlocking bootloader? like fastboot boot recovery.img?
Alternative solutions?

I used Tasker with Notification Listener and achieved the same result. Sometimes, there is a lag so the ad may appear but it's gone before unlocking. Also, the persistent notification from Tasker removes the need to create a fake notification to prevent full-screen ads.
On a related note, has anyone tried using ADB commands to disable/remove the Amazon Offers app? I want to try it but don't know the necessary commands.

1. Can you share your details of how you set your Tasker to remove ads? I use Macrodorid but as i stated earlier sometimes it takes seconds to unlock that is totally inconvenient
2. do you mean this?
Code:
adb shell pm hide com.amazon.phoenix
Unfortunately this does not work ((
Code:
Error: java.lang.SecurityException: Neither user 2000 nor current process has android.permission.MANAGE_USERS.
but of course you can try it yourself...
BTW, there is one more solution for removing ads. If anyone can check - that would be good

1) To get Tasker to work correctly, I downloaded Notification Listener from here. Once both are installed, in Tasker under the Profile tab, I created an event that gets triggered when the display is on. The task that gets linked to this profile will launch the Notification Listener plugin. Then, I configured the listener to clear notifications based on the app name Amazon Offers (case sensitive).
2) Thanks for trying. It looks like we can't run this command without root.

1. Have you tried Macrodroid? Just wonder about comparison between Tasker and Macrodroid
2. Well if we have root, we would just delete Amazon Offers from the phone and that's it. This adb solution was meant to hide even without root, and id did work for G4 phones. Initially But then it seems to me they have closed this possibility with some update. And also for G5 phones from the very beginning
When I was thinking about possible solutions one idea came to my mind. What if we try to flash Amazon phones with stock Moto G5 firmware? Will it give any error (because of locked bootloader and probably different hashes of the Amazon and Stock Moto firmwares)? Any thoughts?

I mean if u go to best buy and show them the prime deal they'll match it. I just did it 2 days ago. I'd post the photo of receipt as proof, but XDA won't let me attach it. Then you'll have then ad free version for $239

We do not have such shops in my country
Best buy didn't let me price match the Amazon ad variant because they said that variant isn't eligible compared with their variant. And using NotiEDA combined with Macrodroid seemed to go the trick.
Sooooo theres a permanent way to get rid of them and not have to use an app for it. I just found it on the Moto G subreddit.
I literally just did it. It DID get rid of all the amazon ads, which is less running in the background too!!
I'm using the 64gb Moto G5 plus amazon variant. It also gets rid of the need for a second finger print for the lock screen. You don't need to do it twice to get to the home screen anymore, just once like a non ad version!!!!
It's the top post in the subreddit right now. I can't link it, some bot won't let me
EDIT: I will put the instructions
Moderator Edit:
The solution has already been covered here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4/how-to/to-remove-amazon-ads-moto-g4-running-t3614090
Edit2: the above is the one who found it but the one who posted it to the subreddit that this forum wouldn't let me link to are one in the same. I did mention the thread so sorry if anyone thinks I didn't give proper credit.
YOU MADE MY DAY!!!! AWESOME! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
I confirm that this operation removed my ads also
I think this should be pinned to OP somehow!
Hi everyone, the issue I am facing is that instant messaging apps (Viber, Facebook messenger, etc) do not work on my 5.1. Notifications settings are OK, unrestricted data access is allowed for these apps, so this is not a notification issue. The apps do not receive messages unless I launch them (when I launch the apps, there are no new messages, they start arriving a couple of seconds after launching). I contacted Nokia, but they did not have a clue... I did everything they asked for (factory reset, etc.), nothing helped.
Does anyone else have similar issues? Does anyone have any idea what the solution might be?
So it's been reported before that Nokia/HMD is the worst for how aggressively they limit background app usage. This can't be fixed in the current stock ROM but Nokia might help us out with Pie (if it ever materialises).

Thanks. It seems that the 5.1 was my last Nokia.
The Android One project is a bit of a farce given the update cycle is so delayed. It's good to have the security of assured updates, but only providing them when the hardware is no longer relevant seems a waste. Also it's possibly the Mediatek chipset to blame, but this phone has not had a great deal of interest on XDA, which could also be in part due to the Android One project making custom ROMs a little less relevent.
You can fix it yourself by uninstalling com.evenwell.emm app from user space. That crappy service which HMD bundles into firmware "improves" battery life by killing all non-system background apps.

Yes, you can delete overlay as well.
Yuo may need to uninstall these packages as well
com.evenwell.PowerMonitor
com.evenwell.PowerMonitor.overlay.base
I noticed that my 1Password service was still being killed after uninstalling com.evenwell.powersaving.g3.* packages. After removing PowerMonitor stuff everything back to normal and Nokia 5.1 Pie became usable again
I have the 2gb variant and its no use. Its a crappy phone... No notification what so ever even after disable/uninstall the evenwell apps and battery saver etc apps. Its no use as doon you start browsing only Google apps remains active. All other are killed. Not a android one phone. Its a stupid phone!!!
I believe I have found the definitive answer for this, after much googling around.
I have a 5.1 Plus (TA-1108) and tried the ADB disabling of evenwell apps and others but it still would stop services after restarts. I eventually found a post on the "Don't kill my phone" Github which alluded to the hidden setting of the "Duraspeed" task killer that is bundled.
The dontkillmyphone website says you can ADB in and change this hidden setting to 0, but this doesn't persist after a restart. The value will still be a 0, but it seems this task killer only reads the value after it detects a change in the value (bizarre, I know). So to disable this Duraspeed thing, you need to change the hidden setting value from something else to a 0 on each boot.
Luckliy, this is very easily done by Tasker/Macrodroid/etc. Use this post:
https://github.com/urbandroid-team/dont-kill-my-app/issues/57#issuecomment-484000884
but the short of it is to enable WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS to tasker (by running this:
adb shell pm grant net.dinglisch.android.taskerm android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
for tasker, google for your app of choice)
and then set a task that runs on boot to change a "Custom Setting", Global type, setting name setting.duraspeed.enabled to a value (doesn't matter, I use 2) and then immediately after change the same setting to 0.
I have this set up on my phone and my wifes phone and ever since they have been perfect with background services (my Garmin watch, lastpass, etc) as well as any email/notification apps.

I kept getting system UI errors in Dex. Did a fresh install, no issues. Started uninstalling the usual stuff through the adb app and after again issues. Did a fresh install again and decided to disable the system apps instead of uninstalling them and there were no issues. My thought is that my issue was related to what shown in the settings app as I usually uninstall digital wellbeing and tips and these options would be gone from the settings, now when they are disabled they still show but dont react when pressed.
Do you still have shortcuts of one of the apps you uninstalled/disabled in the control panel?

Just wondering why when you reenabled it it didn't work. A lot of people on here are using an app to disable services that you need a PC and your phone to work. I have disabled 20 or so services that I don't use but if I ever need them I can just reenable them with the app and have done so on occasion. Never the less I'm glad you got it straightened out.
