I have a really weird issue that happens on my tiq running the latest version.

Randomly when I try to pull down the notification screen the screen goes black till I let go of the screen.

I had this on one phone and they sent me a replacement. I set up the second one and it’s happening again.

If you ever had this issue please let me know.

Most people I asked who own a tiq never had this. It’s the second phone it’s happening to so it can’t be a device specific hardware issue.

It probably has to do with an app I have on the phone. But how can I know which one?

It’s sms backup restore app

Uninstall it or prevent background activity

Though I’m not 100 percent sure, the logs didn’t capture the exact moment.

So far the thing that triggers the issue to start is when I click on a notification on the lock screen and unlock my phone it opens the notification. Then when I swipe down from the top of the screen I get the issue.

The issue doesn’t always get triggered.

I had this while using pattern unlock method. I changed to number unlock and didn’t have the issue yet. Gonna wait some more to see if the pattern unlock is part of the issue.

</div>

It doesn’t seem like the sms back up app is the issue

It seems that the issue stems from the unlock pattern feature to unlock the phone

Would you know what’s causing it or what app to clear cache on that is tied to the pattern unlock feature?

It also only gets triggered when you press a notification on the lock screen and then Your prompted to unlock the phone so you unlock it. Then you try, pulling down the notification screen and get that.

I find it weird that I was the only one out there using the swipe pattern on the tiq. Unless there’s another combination such as having notifications be visible on the lock screen. @william what’s that setting set to.

No. Only when you use the pattern. I currently use the numbers to unlock. And I have no issue.

</div>

okay after much testing and many late nights i believe i have pinpointed the issue. (AND FIXED IT) the main problem is that the issue happens once in a while and there is ZERO logging in the logcat from it. even if youre lucky to have a computer nearby when it happens and cathc the logs they dont show anything out of the ordinary. ya i think you get the issue i had fixing this…

but i need testers to see if they can replicate this issue. and then I will post the problematic code and the fix for it as well as a signed System UI apk so people to flash

Since i spent a lot of time on this i would appreciate if you keep this info to private use. im releasing it for the benefit of the **Jtech community** out of hakaras hatov to what i have gained form here. if you want it for commercial please contact me.

To trigger it:

you must have a pattern unlock

1. Press power to lock, then again to wake.
2. Pull the shade down on the lock screen and tap the Settings gear (bottom right).
3. Draw your pattern. Settings opens.
4. Pull the shade down: it should be all black, and swiping up takes you back to Settings.

Is it for you also when you click on a notification before unlocking, or only when clicking on settings?

Oh man I spent a lot on that too. A lot of waisted time on that. Kept putting the logs in non paid ai and got no where. I ended up switching to numbers pin. Now I use dumber os and use pattern and have no issues.
