There is any app installed which is permanently opened in the Background. Please check your installed Apps.
Is your Phone rooted? Give me some Infos about your Phone.

My phone is not rooted. I have S6 Edge running on 5.1.1
I have checked running apps on smart manager and end them but again many apps automatically open after sometime.
Is there no App to detect malware?
Remove every shady app you downloaded from Store and be careful next time you install stuff on your phone.
Usually games tend to show ads like that everywhere.
Source: dozens of Android phones that had those apps whose parents gave their kids to install games on.

I really wish there is a way to detect and block such apps

There is...
Install All-In-One Toolbox from play store then from within the app (or again from play store) install the Ad Detect plugin. It will scan every app on your device and report their capacity to display ads, by what means, and from what source. From this info, it's easy to decide what apps to delete. :good:
Hey, is anyone else having problems getting into the assistant settings menu, i'm talking about this menu.
(open assistant > settings and then settings again)

Tried clearing cache and data of both Google and play apps, I also tried the beta channel download same thing, I tap settings it almost like the page pops ups and vanishes within a second, both settings and explore are doing this.

Nope, I can change my Assistant settings easily. But my menu is different.

No, that's just the menu we want to access but can't
So I guess I have to revoke the microphone authorization for the Google app to get rid of Google assistant for now.

I access the settings by pressing Home Button and then by clicking on the blue icon on the top right side
@B1naryBlaz3 I fixed it with my P20 by disabling and uninstalling Google Play Services via "System Settings -Apps -> Google Play Services -> Deactivate" and then afterwards installing the Google Play Services update again when prompted. This actually fixed a lot of issues I had

Works until I restart the phone again, I also factory reset 4 times yesterday to try and isolate the issue, its definitely something thats part of the default install, everything is fine until it updates the stock stuff and then you restart.

Well it's the same as mine. The problem may be the Google Play Services as @2001db8 pointed out. You have all the permissions granted to Assistant?

I wonder if the OS versions have anything to do with the problems I am having.

Did you get the handset from cell c ? Trying to figure out how the various operators decide which version they sell, got mine from Telkom if I knew the other version had more internals I would have opted for that, this is what I get for not doing my homework.

I have no issue whatsoever, I use the Google assistant on a daily basis ( Yeah I'm that lazy lol) and the Google authentication app is working just fine (I have setup my two way authentication code for my various emails accounts and other stuff) i'm pretty happy with this p20 lite and I wasn't expecting to have such a good experience in the first place.

First of all, this is my first thread on XDA.
I bought a brand new Huawei Honor 8x last month and im well satisfied. My problem is that i cant see particular apps on the "Turn off battery optimisation" list. The app is called Youtube Vanced. When i login to google on Vanced. It automatically logs out after 10-15 mins. And force closes by that situation(optimisation thing) in my opinion.
What should i do.?
Thanks..

The only thing I can think of is, uninstall both vanced and microG, install them again, and allow them both into the background.

As you know, Google rolled Assistant for more Android phones but the limitations on resolution are still there (>720p)
Is there any way I can enable it on my 540p phone? it's rooted (Magisk enabled)
Thanks in advance.

Do you mean Open GApps? How does it differ?
To be clear I can install Assistant from the Play Store but when I launch it says you don't meet the requirements.
