how to fix and solve screen overlay detected problem in Android Marshmallow

Many devices like oneplus one, oneplus two, Galaxy s7, note 5, note 4, galaxy s6, s6, s6 edge, oneplus three, nexus 5, nexus 6 etc which are running android marshmallow 6.0 and 6.0.1 has this problem. This problem can be due to many reasons, and hence there cab be many solutions too fr this problem. This post will guide you on how you can fix the screen overlay detected.




I won't be going much in technical details on what is the real reason behind that etc. I am just sharing my personal experience with various devices and via interacting with various users through my YouTube channel comments how they have solved it.

In Short Why This is Happening 

Starting from Android Marshmallow, Android has been more secure by protecting users data like,

  • Phone, 
  • Call, 
  • Storage, 
  • SMS, 
  • Location, 
  • Camera etc


Which are the various user data category. Whenever you are installing any app, the app needs some of basic requirement to work. For example Google Drive app needs
  • Camera
  • Contact
  • Storage


Features to work for its various features. It is upto you which app you want to trust and give all permissions. Under any android marshmallow device when you install any app and if you are going to launch it first time, it will ask some set of permissions that it needs, As an example you can see below When you will start using Whats app it is asking for SMS related permission, if that feature and permission is mandatory for the app to work you have to give this, else the app may not work. You can later change the permissions by going again to apps/application manager under setting and can give permissions that it need.

How That is Related to Screen Overlay ?

Screen Overlay is a feature in Android which lets app to display and work on the top of other apps. For example, you are working on Twitter app and you got whats app message displayed as a popup window or a floating window over the twitter. This functionality happens due to "Draw Over Other Apps"feature in Android. Now to get this feature apps must be allowed to modify system settings, Which can be seen under apps configuration option under settings. 




The location position and name may vary depends upon the OEM OS you are running. Under Android 6.0.1 running on OnePlus 3 it looks like this,




One you go inside the 'Draw over other apps', you will see list of apps which are allowed to draw over other apps. Taking an example of twitter,




Alright Got It, Now How to Solve It

How do I (Author) Solve it, when I get this error

Thats not strange and surpise too if I got this problem in my Android phones too. Takiing an example if I am trying to oprn whats app. Here are the quick tips that I try to do,

  • Try cosing all the apps from the Android app switcher or recent app button and again try to open the app (whats app here)
  • If the above doesn't work then I try to see if there is any tools/productivity based that I have installed recently. I first try to stop them from "settings>apps>app_name". Then open the whats app again.
  • If the above two doesn't work a reboot work in 9/10 times for me. 
I tested these on OnePlus 3, Micromax Canvas Spark 2 Plus, Yu Yureka, Doodle 3. My Nexus 6P, Nexus 6 and Google Pixel XL does have these problems yet. :) Benefit of pure Android,


Trying basic solutions

I am going ti tell basic and simple solutions that you should do with even going deeper inside the settings and doing anything further,

A quick Reboot might help you

Most of the Android problems like lags, freeze and including 'Screen Overlay' can be solved by rebooting the system. Note: Make sure to close all the apps before you reboot, Android Marshmallow keeps apps in memory and resumes them.

Note: This is most simple solution. I personally use thios most often when I face this problem. Usually a 2 - 3 times keep on trying and reboot works.

Think again when the problem started

If your phone us working perfectly and suddenly you started seeing this error, which clearly means you must have played with your device. This can be,
  • Changed any system settings
  • Installed any app which causes other apps to stop working properly.

Try to recheck the app which you have installed very recently. Remove that app, generally removing any such app can solve the problem.

Remove apps from Device Administration




Each Android phone has built in device administration which gets many system level privilege like 'Double Tap to Lock', these settings tend to interrupt other app settings also.  As you can see below, try to remove all the apps from these privilege.  Also I will suggest to keep 'Android Device Manager' to have in your phone for security purpose.

Killing all Apps for Now




Usually I never recommend any Android user to install such apps which can clean all apps from memory, but I have heard from many users that they have solved there problem by a simple technique that I am going to share. Follow these steps,
  1. Clear all the apps from recent app drawer. 
  2. Now go to settings and under 'apps'/'application manager' go to your selected app and try to give permission.
  3. Then start your app again, this should work. If it does then follow below steps further.
  4. After step 1 reboot the phone then go to settings and under 'apps'/'application manager' go to your selected app and try to give permission. After this start your app and see if that works or not.
  5. If above all doesn't work then use any memory cleaner/ram cleaner app and try to clear the memory. You can optionally try to reboot the phone (though not mandatory).
  6. Try to start your app again and see if that works or not.

I have tried above solution on OnePlus Three (3) and it always worked for me. Still your problem isn't solved then  try the below method.

Reboot to Safe Mode



If you are not aware of safe mode, then here is a quick answer, its way you can use your android with running any third party apps. The OS only runs whats needed for your phone to just functional. The benefits,
  • Debugging malfunctioning app
  • Detecting virus
  • For other development works (not needed here) 

Now how to reboot to safe mode, It mainly depends on the the phone manufacturer, which key combination they are using to that. You need to check that how reboot your phone to safe mode. I am just writing here are few of the,

General way to reboot the phone (Android) in safe mode

Press and hold your phone’s power button for a few seconds until you see a prompt to turn off your phone. Next, tap and hold Power off for a few seconds until your phone asks you to confirm that you want to enter safe mode. Tap OK, and your phone will restart into safe mode.

The above mentioned method is a universal method until unless your phone manufacturer modifies the way it has been done. I am just giving an example of how you can reboot the phone to safe mode.

Reboot the Samsung Phone (Android) in safe mode

Many Samsung phone follows below method to get in to the safe mode,

  1. Turn the device off.
  2. Press and hold the Power key past the screen with the device name.
  3. When 'SAMSUNG' appears on the screen, release the Power key.
  4. Immediately after releasing the Power key, press and hold the Volume down key.
  5. Continue to hold the Volume down key until the device finishes restarting.
  6. Safe mode will display in the bottom left corner of the screen.
  7. Release the Volume down key when you see 'Safe Mode'.

Turn off safe mode
  1. Press and hold the Power key.
  2. Tap Restart.

As said there are lot of manufacturer, so you need to check with phone specific model no how to reboot your phone in safe mode.



Now once you are in safe mode,
  • Go to Settings
  • Search for 'apps'/'application manager' depends upon your phone
  • Look for the app that has the problem 'with screen overlay detected'
  • go inside the app,ad give the permissions. (Better give all permissions)
  • Reboot back normally. 
  • Try to open app, It should work fine.

Video Demo


We have two videos for this. The first video also shows some detailed way on how you can solve this,





The second method is direct safe mode method,





Some Working Suggestion from Users

Based on the various feedbacks from users of my YouTube channel, Here are few tips again to solve this problem,

Uninstall Any Cleaner based apps

Given an example on Moto G4 and Moto G4 plus, many users have tried to just uninstall certain apps like 'Clean Master', 'CCleaner' etc. I have just taken a few example. In summary uninstalling any such apps which takes the control on various system level functionality like killing apps, cleaning memory stops functionality of other apps. Try to remove any such app and reboot the device to see the effect. It should work

Uninstall Recent apps

Go bacl to previous days and just remeber from when i started getting this problem. Removing any such app or apps will sove the problem.



If you still have this problem you can connect with us and can mentioned the problem we will  try to help you in the same.

pokemon go failed to detect location fix for android hack, fake gps, gps spoof, mock location

This post will guide you on how to fix "failed to detect gps signal or location on android". The failed to detect location can happen due to many of the reasons. We will discuss all of them in detail here.



Note:
  • Before we go any further a strict warning - Using hacked/pirate

    d version of Pokemon GO is against law and any strict actions can be taken from Niantic Inc. Try this at your own risk.
  • This video is for information purpose only, it is no recommended to use hacked/pirated version of Pokemon GO app.

Possible Ways to Play Pokemon GO


This is as simple to understand, but the whole fix lies in this only. Obviously you need to install the app. Here are the possible ways to play Pokemon,
  • Install from Google Play Store (If it is supported in your country)
  • Sideload the apk file of the game.
  • Hacked version of the Pokemon GO

On the mentioned three points above the first two points are where you are not using any hacked version of the game I am assuming, as I am keeping that for third option. Pokemon GO is an augmented Reality based app and it needs the current location of your device where you are holding the device and playing. I am also assuming that you have successfully installed and the games and it was working too, but suddenly you started getting error of GPS Signal failed to detect.  

Check these settings first,

Location Accuracy Mode

According to your Android OS running you need to go to settings then location. Under location you need to change the location accuracy mode. As you can see in below Nexus 6P running Android Nougat 7.0,



You will see three option in most of the Android Phones running Android Marshmallow and above. There will be,
  • High Accuracy
  • Battery Saving
  • Device Only
You need to always select the "High Accuracy" mode. If you will use 'Battery Saving' and 'Device Only' then you will get 'GPS Signal Not Found' error. while playing Pokemon GO.


Disable Battery Saver


Pokemon GO is not defined to work under battery saver mode. Before you start playing top up the battery and then start playing, As a backup keep a battery backup option. When battery saver is turned on it changes many system settings to save the battery of the phone. For example when battery saver is turned on it can,
  • Change the location mode for 'High Accuracy' to 'Battery Saver'.
  • Can disable background data or can optimize the app to use less data.
These are the just two mentioned, In short you should never play in battery saver mode. Now the 'Location Accuracy Mode' and 'Disable Battery Saver' works for both the case in case you have installed the Pokemon GO from either the Play Store or sideloaded from apk. An important point is if you wanted to download the apk files from official play store, here is the video that can help you,

Tip : Download apk from Google Play Store



Check Mock Locations

This is just to cross verify in case you have accidentally changed it under the developer options. Just head to the settings and see if you can find any entry names as 'Developer Options'. If it is not there then you are good to go. 

In case there is 'Developer Options' menu then go inside and look for an entry called 'Mock Locations',  it should like below,



Make sure you see 'nothing' written here.

Hacked Version of Pokemon GO


Now we will see the scenario if you have installed the Pokemon GO using hacked method on your Android device. I am taking only a couple of one which are working as of now, There are complete dedicated video to check and install. Make sure to watch if you are interested to install the hacked version.
  • Using any location spoofing based app to teleport the location
  • Installed using Exposed Framework on rooted android device
  • Installed using hacked version and sideload to your phone
Now, for more details check the individual method of using and installing them. Each of the method has a separate way of configuration. You need to check carefully which method what kind of settings, as an example, some location spoofing app wants to use location mode to high accuracy mode as an example, fly gps. 

If you install using the exposed framework they need may request only for 'Device Only' mode.

Also with location spoofing method you need to properly select the mock location. Taking an example, below you can see, the Fly GPS is asking for mock location to set.



An important point here to note is, if you have more than one location spoofing apps installed try to uninstall the one you are not using. Coz it is difficult to set mock location in that case, the may misbehave.


Video Demo

Be sure to watch the complete video for a live demo and better understanding too. Here is the video and link too,

Lenovo Vibe K5 Note Camera Review

In this post we will see the detailed camera and video review of the the Lenovo Vibe K5 Note Gold (3GB RAM) variant.




To check the performance of the camera as always we try to use the same object for many lighting conditions like
  • Morning Natural light (before sunrise)
  • Under daylight condition when there is direct sunlight on the object
  • Indoor shots with natural and artificial light
  • Very Low light images 
  • Complete dark situation to check the effectiveness of the flash
  • Zoom Test
  • Selfie Shots

Note : We tried to use the same object whenever it is possible.

Specification


A quick look on the specifications of the camera. According to GSM Areana

Primary13 MP, f/2.2, phase detection autofocus, dual-LED (dual tone) flash
FeaturesGeo-tagging, touch focus, face detection, HDR, panorama
Video1080p@30fps
Secondary8 MP


Camera UI Overview

One good feature that we noticed that the Camera app launches very quickly. After using camera apps on OnePlus 3 and Galaxy S7 Edge, I can say it is launching very fast. it is not exactly comparable to said phones but yes it does launches quickly.



The camera UI is very simple with basic feature, which is good point. You will get usual option like Toggle button, video button, settings, flash and HDR button. There is no manual controls on the screen, but the same can be accessed from the camera settings.  This we don't like, the controls should be visible on the screen for a very fast access.



Click on the fours rectangle buttons on the left end of the phone you will get the settings options along with the panorama and some filters too.



Its good the camera UI has some built in filters too, which is great fir Instagram users, The filters and their effects are good too. 



On going further into the settings you will see the manual controls and other options for the camera too. You will get,
  • ISO
  • White Balance
  • Exposure
  • Scene Mode
and some other important controls too. 



Right below to the camera button there is a video button too which will lets you get in the settings of the video options. The K5 Note only supports 1080p i.e. Full HD Video recording from the rear and front camera and playback too. 




Camera Samples


We will begin with various lighting situations. On such light conditions most of the camera phones very well. The point to notice here is the color reproduction. How much does the camera takes the natural shots. Usually as a trend most users prefers a exposed image and slightly more vibrant colors. Talking about K5 Note camera output, it is towards the natural color, which some time seems to be a faded but its true to color what it is actually. 

Morning Conditions (Before Sunrise)

The time is around 7 AM, on the outside park area. Below are some of the camera samples. I have kept the HDR mode too in togather with this. Also turning on the HDR doesn't add much effect on the photos. Take a look here,









You can download all the images from my Facebook Page mentioned on the end of the post.

Day Time (Direct Sunlight)


Pictures in such conditions comes very good. Pictures looks very crisp and true to natural color too.
Only place I see HDR is very effective when images have red and yellow color on it. Take a look on the images (Right Image is HDR and Left is in Auto Mode) below,












Indoor Conditions (Natural and Artificial)

I am bit disappointed here with the color reproduction in HER mode especially for the colors like,
  • Lemon Yellow
  • Parrot Green
Without HDR these colors are closer to what it should look like.



The above picture is taken in natural light in morning 9 AM indoor. Other colors like Golden, White etc looks very natural. Have a look below images which are taken in Artificial light on night 11 PM,





Low Light Conditions

Imaging under low light is always nightmare for smartphones of mid range. Due to price segment limitations the hardware of the camera can't be be increased to match up with the high end phones. The same applies with the K5 Note. Under low light the phone looks to struggle in capture noise free images. For taking the closer shots the flash does help a bit but it will expose more than what it is actually. Below are the images taken in the combination of three images as,
  • Auto
  • HDR
  • Flash
These three modes are used in the similar light condition. Take a look on the below images,










Zoom Test


The K5 Note supports 3.0x zoom. Which does work I will say considering the price that you are paying, Picture quality will change on zoom but it is acceptable. Since there is no loss less zoom concept that you will find in Nokia Lumia 1020. 



But still I am fine with the results here. In the images below,
  • Upper half is in Auto mode
  • Lowe half is in HDR mode.
  • Zoom are done in order of  Normal - 2.0x - 3.0x
Under Normal Condition,


With 2.0x Zoom,


With 3.0x Zoom,



As you can see under 3,0x zoom too the photos are acceptable. 


Selfie Shots :)

K5 Note comes with an 8 MP Autofocus front facing camera. The camera is good in overall. The only thing I missed is flash in Front facing camera.  I remember in one of my previous phone review of Alcatel OneTouch X1, the front flash is really very helpful.

Overall the Front camera is good, Take a look on the sample images,
