Chrome Notifications Dark, impossibile to read - Honor 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Only the Chrome notifications on my phone have black text and are too hard to read. I'm using Nova Launcher, but i've tried also with default launcher but nothing has changed.
I've tried different themes, but nothing to do..
There is some method or app to avoid this problem?

Try doing a factory reset, or try clearing the app's data, it might help.

Of course i've already done. Isn't a rom problem, because i've this problem from first rom (lollipop) now i'm on B370 and still have this problem.

Okay try this once, flash the whole firmware package by following these steps:
Download your phone's latest firmware.
After doing this put the UPDATE.APP in dload folder of your external SDCARD.
Switch off your phone, and press Vol UP + Vol DOWN + Power button simultaneously.
This might solve it.

This is a well known problem due to EMUI themes. I bet if you change the desktop background to one with more bright colors you will see the notifications.
Try to update to B371, backup, factory reset and play a little with the themes.
I think Colors or Vui themes solve this. Something that also could be solved in the EMUI theme engine or build.prop. I don't know for sure.

Help with problems after JB Update

Hey all used this guide to upgrade stock jellybean,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1909819
Worked brilliantly and then got above my skill level when removing some bloatware, normally i copy the apks i remove however this time i pressed delete by mistake, now have huge issues with play store and other apps. I have deleted too many apks
Have tried installing google apks again but still no joy. Does any one know of a way i can install JB again to start afresh i did try downgrading as per the guide but that didnt actually remove the JB firmware. I feel although even with huge amounts of help from flumpster (many thanks) we arnt cracking it so a fresh install is prob best, i just hope someone knows how to.
Thanks in advance.

I would assume you can do a factory reset. With the until off, press and hold vol dwn, then press and hold the pwr button for a few seconds, release the pwr button but continue to hold vol dwn, then release when the bootloader is displayed, from there you should have an option to Wipe Data (Factory Reset).

Yes force stopped wiped data and rebooted but still as soon as device reboots i get the error google play store has stopped.
Thanks for all your help guys it is appreciated, and is probably all that has stopped me throwing the thing at the wall.

because you are not unlocked we are purely guessing on fixes for this at the moment but I know you now have google services framework back. When you was asked above to do the volume down and power and then select wipe was this done after we got google services back or before?

Well there are still options. If you had USB debugging enabled in developer options you can still adb stuff to the device. If you don't as a last resort you could unlock the bootloader and install it as a custom rom. Also as you are not unlocked at all asus would probably accept it as an rma under warranty.

You need to have the adb files on your computer. Open a command prompt where adb files are by holding down shift and right clicking on the folder adb is in and selecting open command prompt here. Then type adb devices into command window.
if you get waiting check in your device manager to see if you have any devices with explanation marks on it. If there are then install naked drivers from the top of developer section.

Stuck in a bootloop after attempting to install Xposed. Uninstall failed. Help!

Somebody suggested installing Xposed Framework manually, which put me in a bootloop. Uninstall seemed to work, but then after restarting to clear the cache, the phone now constantly goes into a loop again.
I have tried installing stock firmware in a dload folder on the SDCard, but that gives me a 'software install' failed error after around 10%
Obviously my next option was to flash the stock firmware in fastboot mode, but when I extract the update.app there's no proper filenames and the Huawei Finder application doesn't seem to work with the H7 firmware.
Pretty much completely out of ideas, so any suggestions would go a long way.
Fixed it now by formatting my SD card and downloading the L01 rom from the Huawei site.
Did you get xposed to work or is it a NO GO? I really wanna try Xposed, but my guts tells me that it's not gonna work because of the EMUI..

No go unfortunately. Flashing it in TWRP puts you in an endless bootloop, I fixed it by running the uninstaller, but the phone felt laggy after that. So I went back to TWRP and cleared the cache which was when the bootloop came back. Whether that's to do with the botched Xposed installation or a bug in TWRP, I don't know!

It is here:
http://www.hihonor.com/es/pages/support#?view=downloads
The top one, 'PLK-L01C432B100 Upgrade Software UK'
I didn't download it initially and was trying ones from NEEDROM (which seemingly won't work on EU phones) because it says it's for the Honor 4X in the description, but turns out that's just a typo. Worked first time using the dload/UPDATE.app and volume up + down while plugging USB cable in method

Recovery mode is just a black screen...

I wish I knew exactly what caused this to happen. I was using a Malaysk ROM and starting having the issues. I thought maybe it was the ROM so I downgraded back to the original ROM that came with my unit and I'm still having the same issues. I downgraded through system updates in settings.
I can get it to boot into recovery, but it's just a black screen with pulsating light blue lights on the side of my unit. I have a Joying RK3188 1024x600 with the touch buttons on the left side.
Also when the unit boots up I don't get the Android splash screen anymore, it's also black. The first sign of life is when the car logo screen pops up.
There have also been multiple cases where when I am using the unit the screen has turned black ( if the radio is playing it will continue to play though ) and I can't do anything on the screen. This has to be a related issue.
Does anyone have any idea whats going on here?
I appreciate any help I can get!

Try reflashing both MCU and ROM.
Use USB method for recovery of brick unit.
Or try reflashing from GPS card by mimicking procedure as it should be done on screen working even if you don't see it (look for screenshots of recovery and try to perform needed actions - somewhere here was such hint for someone whose screen brightness was completely darked out and has to perform factory reset from recovery on the blind).

What is USB method? Just load the files on to a flash drive?
And I've found a picture of the recovery menu and I've tried that multiple times with no success.
Thank you for your help!

Putting the stock MCU and ROM on the GPS card fixed it! I did the update from the settings menu and it worked! I have recovery again! Thank you so much for the help!
I really want to install the custom ROM again, but I really don't want to keep having this issue though. Does anyone have any idea what is causing this to happen?

I had bad experience with MCU v2.83
After some time it started to make touch screen not working, factory settings pass not recognising standard 126 etc.
After restart - all normal. Then for no reasons next day problems rrapear...
Reverting to stock v2.80 resolves issue. And Nalaysk ROM works with no prob.
So, if you upgraded MCU - that may be a reason.
If not, then maybe your ROM file was corrupted. Or your internal memory got corrupted somehow.
My prob with newer MCU, not working on cold morning first start but working after reset, points out that there is some HW related issue. With new version only though! Figure it out...

I never updated the MCU so I'm really not sure what happened.
I'm actually don't mind using the stock ROM minus the fact I've already ran out of storage, is there anything I can do about that? So many things are working better for me now. Before I wasn't able to get an OBDII adapter to connect to torque and now it works perfect.
I'd love to go back to the Malaysk ROM but I just had so many issues...
Use link2sd to store your apps on an external sd card.

There is also another ROM, look for thread named Interesting ROM with FUSE support.
It is almost stock but with FUSE partitioning so you have all space for both sys app and data.
BTW your prob with OBD2 is known issue in Malaysk ROM if you enabled xposed BT module.

You need to root your head unit. Use the root code from the wiki. Then install super su and give permissions to link2sd. Remember to properly partition sd card ss well

I have the same problem now. I just went into recovery mode and installed update_4_4_4_FUSE_1024X600_RK3188_17_MAL_23_04_2016.
All was well until the Android loader image just sat there pulsing. The unit still had not started up after 40 mins of this logo being on screen.
Going into recovery mode just shows a black screen now. So my unit is effectively dead, or can it be rescued?

Is it possible to start your device normal?
No. It just sits at the bootloader.
Sent from my SM-G928F using Tapatalk
Try in recovery mode to enter back in normal boot mode. It's difficult to explain in englisch. I had to pin a small needle into my radio and ca. 0,5 seconds before the LED are flashing, stop with pushing. When you stop pushing you must wait 5-10 second and see if you device boot up normal.
You have to try this often to find the correct moment. Thats how I entered back to normal boot mode.

Wipe data, cache, and dalvik, and reinstall your ROM. You will lose all your data, downloaded apps, and settings (I hope you made backups of them), but you will have your phone back.

Good news. You probably only needed to wipe the data partition - but you might as well start afresh.
BTW, I have been using supersu for a long time, without any problems. So I would very much doubt whether rooting via supersu was the cause of the problem. I suspect that the problem might have been caused by "Cleanup to switch to another superuser app". I have not done that in years, and I am not sure why anyone would want to do it now.
There is no harm trying magisk, but I prefer supersu myself.
