Pls Nairalander xperts I'm a about to go crazy, I downloaded an app but I cant grant it it permission to access my device storage on my tecno w2, it's says overlay detected so I have to turn it off but after turning it off including my system app everything, to my own surprise it still demanded me to turn off overlay when I already did it, the worst part of it was that, I reset all app settings on my phone but still the same, so now I can't use any app now including system app everything e.g music player, video player and other, unless I give a permission but before I give permission I must turn off the overlay, so pathetic I turned off everything but it' still d same thing. Plus help I'm just getting frustrated. Cc lalasticlala

Hi @micskales Download Button unlocker from playstore & allow permissions on it.

Your device may also need an update. What's the current Build Number on your phone? Check this link for some more tips: SOLUTION TO SCREEN OVERLAY PROBLEMS http://bbs.tecno-mobile.com/forum/general/99488-solution-to-screen-overlay-problems
