Hello,
since the forum won't let me open a new thread for whatever reason and I couldn't find a proper support adress I'm replying here.
My experience is good so far (considering the price I paid) except for a minor and a major issue. The minor one is kind of hard to describe but I'll try:
Since about two months my Z1 Pro decided to put another lockscreen over my normal one (pattern). It's a very poorly designed screen showing the time and some arrows saying "slide to unlock". If I do so I get to my normal lock screen where I have to swipe up again to draw my pattern. Same goes for fingerprint, trying to unlock the phone that way just gets me to that screen. Odd is that when it first showed up the spelling was in (I think) Mandarin, after disappearing for a week or so it's now in English. Also, this weird screen doesn't always show up, only about 50% of the times I try to unlock the phone.
The major one is that my Play Store isn't working anymore. During the first month of owning the Z1 Pro everything worked just fine, suddenly every application or update I try to download is stuck at "downloading".
I have literally tried everything except for a hard reset. I have restarted the phone, cleared cache and data for all Google related apps and the download manager, I have removed and readded my Google account, I have installed the latest version of Google Play via an alternate source, I have assigned all permissions to every Google related app, I have a proper Wi-fi and mobile connection, I don't have any SD card that could possibly interfere with downloads, I have way enough storage left and I don't have any kind of antivirus or firewall blocking internet access. Downloading anything either directly from any browser or from a 3rd party app store works just as intended. The Z1 Pro isn't (and has never been) rooted and has still the custom ROM installed it came with.
If anyone has a suggestion to one of my problems please let me know, I'd do anything to avoid a factory reset.
Thanks in advance!
