Try accessing it through the Phone app itself (3 dots top right of the any page > settings > call alerts & ringtones > Ringtones > +
If you have the same issue, goto Settings > Apps > 3 dots top right > show system apps > secsoundpicker > permissions > enable storage permission
Try the above again

[Q] How to switch from "A" google account to "B" google account in market

[Q] How to switch from "A" google account to "B" google account in market
hi guys
i want to switch google account for market, because a got chceckout in the second account and i want to buy some things,
is there any way without factory reset?
i dont know maybe some special app?
thanks
I had the exact same problem and couldn't find any way other than factor resetting the phone
Have you tried clearing all Google account data, and clearing the Market data? Might that help?
yes i tried, it erased all my installed apps list from market but no query about login ... always i was logged in with my "old" account
You could try this :
1.Go to "Settings" - > "Applications" - > "Manage applications" -> "Downloaded" - > try to find out "Market" app and open it - > press "Force stop" , "Clear data" , "Clear cache" , "Uninstall updates"
2.Go to "settings" - > "Accounts & Sync" - >press "Add Account" - > click on "Google" - > press "Next" - > press either "Create Account" or "Sign in" (If you have already made your new google account) - > Log with your new account
3.Open Market app , it would automatically install the latest update and I guess it would ask you to log with your google account , then you might be able to log in with your desired one .
If that doesn't work , you could try this :
1. Go to application list - > start an app called "setup" - > On the botton of your screen would appear 7 empty dots , by each pressing of the button "Next" one of the points would become green in color -> Go to the 6th section , which is called "Set up account" -> Press "Other mail accounts " - > Fill in your new google acount -> Then you might be able to log in with it in Android Market

[Q] superuser settings disappeared on cm10.1

I'm on the latest cyanogenmod nightly with superuser integrated. I disabled it and now it's gone from my settings menu so I can't reenable it. help appreciated.
Is the app still installed. Download it from the play store.

I'm having the same problem as OP, need help solving it. Downloading the app from the play store didn't help as CM10.1 has Superuser integrated within it.
Reflash the rom?
figured out how to get the "# Superuser" menu item back...

I just had this same problem - I disabled root via the "# Superuser" sub-menu off settings ..then it disappeared.
...I then also noticed my "{ } Developer options" was gone... (not sure if one led to another or not). Anyhooooo... I re-enabled developer options (via tapping build number a bunch of times) then, inside developer options, turn "on" dev options, then when down to the "Root Access" options, selected then enabled "Apps and ADB".
Tada .. "# Superuser" is back in the main settings menu.
fyi .. I then went back to developer options to turn them off ..as I usually don't have them on unless I'm coding... noticed that the "{ } Developer options" menu item disappeared again. No worries though it reappears if you do go back and tap on build number
Cheerio yohs

Screen Overlay detected

After attempting to install a Bank App my phone I get the following error on any app that accesses the Camera.

If I attempt to use Cam-Scanner I got
Please go to Settings to enable storage permissionso you can save docs
(Settings apps-camScanner-permissions-storage)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When I select permissions it says no permissions granted. When I try to turn on storage permissions I get screen overlay message seen above.
I never had this issue before. Is there something going on with my permissions and how do I correct it?
thanks for your help
Go to Settings -> Apps -> 3 dots Configure apps -> Special access -> Draw over other apps
One of the apps listed here is the problem, try to disable one by one until the problem is fixed.

If you are running on marshmallow(6.*) Ignore that, first restart the phone on safe mode and then do what this member said(i had the same problem before nougat) or just give the app permissions while you are in safe mode.
Thanks for the reply.
I appear to be a bit different. 3dot menu has show system, sort by size and Reset app preferences.
Gear menu has Draw over apps. Unfortunately when I select Draw Over apps I find that all of the apps with the exception of a recently installed one are disabled.
My feeling is that I have had some time of File permissions SNFU that pretty much farked everything. At the moment I can not access files on a computer via usb and am not even able to read my SD directly from a computer.
Any suggestions on fixing hosed permissions or other would be extremely helpful.

LG G Pad X 10.1 FRP (Factory Reset Protection)

I just got one of these from a friend of mine who did a factory reset on it before he gave it to me, and now it asks me to login to a previously used account. Unfortunately, he's terrible at remembering his login information, and he doesn't remember his password for the account he had on this anymore. He doesn't need it because he bought an IPad and doesn't use his google account anymore. So now it's stuck on the login screen. I've looked around and I couldn't find a way to bypass the FRP that I felt I could trust, or that seemed to apply to my device. I was wondering if anyone knew how I could do this?
Well, I didn't figure out how to get rid of the reset protection. But, I did get into the settings and was able to set up and use a guest account.
First get a SD card with an apk on it. I downloaded one from apkpure. Then when the device asks you to connect to a wireless network, check the Show advanced options box. Then in the Proxy settings drop down box, select Manual. And click on the Proxy hostname box to bring up the keyboard, and press the settings button on the keyboard that looks like a gear. From the keyboard settings menu you can click the mulit-window button on the bottom taskbar and can open two windows. Open the file manager in one of the windows. In the file manager click on your SD card and try to install the apk you put on it. When it prompts you that you need to allow Unknown sources in the settings, click on the settings button to open the settings window. (Do not check the allow Unknown sources box, if you check it, and the device resets or runs out of battery you'll have to go through this again, but when you click on the apk it won't prompt you to go to settings to allow unknown sources because they're already allowed.) Now just click on Users and switch to guest. There are some limitations to this mode, like not being able modify the wifi network (you'll have to switch back to the Owner account to change this).
I don't know if there's any way from the guest account to reset the account lock, but at least it's something.
I tried this and got as far as to the part where you said to "click the mulit-window button on the bottom taskbar."
That multi-window button is greyed out for me so I cannot click on it. LG must of patched it up or I am doing something incorrect.
Any other advise will be greatly appreciated!
It's possible it was patched out. They've been fixing little exploits with patches. This is the only way I was able to get any access to the device. All I can really recommend is to try everything. Check every menu, every option, and see if there is opening you can find to get access to the device.

I found a FRP bypass workaround if you are running 5.1.1 on a LG G Pad X 10.1 V930 AT&T model, not sure if all models are the same. It was FRP locked and all of the other bypass methods must have been patched. I was at the setup screen after a factory reset. I hope this helps.
1. Connect to wifi, then go back to start screen
2. Go to Accessibility > Vision > Enable Talkback
3. Go through the talkback training then draw an L to bring up the quick settings select Text to speech Settings (bottom right corner), afterwards you can disable Talkback by holding the power button and holding 2 fingers on the screen until it disables.
4. You will be in the settings app. Go to Users > Add user > User > Add user > Set up
5. You will be brought to a User setup screen select Next > It will pop up the wifi connection screen select next > You will be asked to sign into a Google account, sign into your Google account and proceed with the Google setup.
6. You will be brought to the homescreen. Go to settings > Users > And sign in as Owner.
7. Go to Settings > Factory data reset > Reset tablet. You can now factory reset and you will not be prompted to sign into a Google account.

Question Gmail notification not work

Hi,

I remove app gmail with xiamitool, reinstall gmail and delete data, but i have same problem.
In battery optimization setting gmail not show, is normally?
Miui 12.0.5.
Mine works, I'm using the default installation of Gmail, I removed some apps with ADB but not Gmail and I'm not rooted or anything. The only thing I've changed regarding the battery optimisation is for LastPass password manager
