Silent notifications when their sound is On - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

All notifications come silently, with vibrations only, although their sound is on. I think, that is because I use DND rules.
Does anyone have the issue too? How to fix that?
I have 3 devices and all of them have the same issue. The problem came, I think, when they got Android 8 or 8.1.

Just Google the do not disturb mode
Try and see difference between the modes
Look at automatic rules for DND

No-no. Of course, when DND is ON, I don't hear any notifications.
But! When DND is OFF, notifications don't play sounds.
Restart helps, but not always.

No. Maybe there is some app which causes the problem. And I am almost sure about it. Because just my phones have the problem and I cannot Google similar symptoms. But what the app - I don't know.
My unusual apps:
- ACR (audio call recorder)
- Google Fit
- SoloLearn
- Zedge

I use Google fit too and except a little battery drain ? i have my notification sound.
So you're not rooted etc... Just using app from playstore.
Start eliminate them one by one
1-Check apps that use accessibility service
(under settings / accessibility)
2-Check apps that use notification permissions
(under settings / applications / show permissions and look the notification tab)
3-Did the problem hapenned after a "specific date" it could also be an app update
Zedge app is made to customize notification sound try uninstall this one first.
Also is this happening for all app?
Did you put the ringtone sound to the lowest?
Because on stock notification sound volume is the same as ringtone one. (except with root - but maybe an app you used put it to the lowest)
Putting ringtone sound maybe would debug the thing.
Do you hear the ringtone when a call comes in?
I'm sorry bro i can just suggest some idea you already tried. I hope someone got the same problem and manage to fix. Maybe you'll be the one that will help future user in this case ?
Good luck with this. Sometimes solution is very simple. Sometimes it just need a factory reset. But you don't learn where you f*cked up

Hey guys,
as it turned out the Ring sound level is only for the ringing tone. I had ring level on maximun while system level was off. I raised the system volume and the sms sound was back on. I dont know if this applies to the rest of you but give it a shot. Thanks for your replies.

Sound on / Vibrate on

Is there anyway to have the sound and vibrate turned on at the same time for incoming phones calls only?

How then? I am new to Andriod.
What i want is sound off / vibrate on and vice versa. When i put my phone in vibrate mode, all notifications should be set to vibrate. Turn the volume back up and vibrate stops and sounds are back. Maybe I'm just not smart enough to figure it out.
Try settings profile in the market.
Another great app is just "profile" by noimjosh, it is a fully configureable profile manager. It also has whitelist functions and the ability to seperate sms mms and notification volumes to different levels. It will also control GPS WIFI, music volume alarm volume .. the list goes on and on. I highly recommen checking it out. well worth it. Hope this helps.

I find that this is good for everything. That's probably why it costs $4. I have this one turn on my wifi when I get within 1/4 mi of my house. I also have it change my wallpaper so when I'm home it displays a hot naked girl and while at work it will display something other than that.

Hey Acid, settings profile looks really good. Lots of control, i am wondering if you agree on this though. I am on call sometimes from 330 am and want to keep everything silent except for a call from work. So i basically set up a "silent" profile, then created a rule so if i get a call from a specific work number the profile will change to another profile called "work".which has an audible ringtone of course. Thus i should be able to keep everything silent untill work calls then presto i can hear that call. Sound right to you?

THESE instructions look like they run pretty close to what you're describing. I'm pretty sure you can.
Yep, I should have checked that turorial first, thanks for the suggestion, I might have to make the switch over!
Have a good one
Hey by the way, if you have Juice Defender and Settings Profile running in tandem I've noticed they can conflict on the wifi side of things.
Ahh, noted thanks!

Silent mode on Nexus 6 workaround

Hi there!
I know there are a few threads about it, BUT I thought as no one obviously knows about the workaround for putting the Nexus 6 in silent mode without the need of an app, I decided to make a seperate thread. It's working on Stock ROM, you don't have to be rooted.
This is how it works:
- Put the phone all the way down to vibrate with the volume down key
- Then tap once on the volume up key so you are on - lets call it "volume step one"
- Now reboot your phone
Congrats, silent mode is back! Unfortunately, you have to do it all over again, if you change the volume once...
Regards

Wait, am I missing something here?
Why not hit the volume button then select "none" from the options of "none, priority, all"?
Enters silent mode pretty easily for me!

I think what people liked about silent mode was it allowed Alarms through. "None" means no sounds or alarms. Priority mode with just Alarms set as priority isn't a workaround because some Apps can still emit sounds. The main problem with this new notification system aside from the fact that it eliminated a couple of real world use case scenarios is it is just flat out not intuitive.

I use Tasker, set media and ringtone to 0 alarms stay at 4, start at 7:00 workdays, end at 4:30 (silent mode except alarms) then volumes return to normal. Works like a charm, this way I don't have to remember to change the volumes when I get to work, or turn them up when I go home....

I use Tasker a lot too, and for many things. And I can't remember now, but what about vibration? I mean in "real" silent mode, vibration is off. If you only set media and ringtone to 0, does your phone still vibrate? I mean in Lollipop you can't even turn vibration off, right?
So my phone is on silent without vibration, so that only my G Watch R vibrates on calls and notifications, with alarms going off on the phone as usual...
"None" is no silent mode for me...

That's correct, there currently is no silent, I did read that they were doing something with the sound settings in 5.1 but not exactly sure what that will look like. I am pretty sure you could get silent back some how if you were to root the phone but I am not ready to go there yet. Other than using a little battery I don't mind the vibration, as is I can get 2 days on a charge without too much effort.

Specifically for apps, you have to flag them as priority for their notifications to go through. Otherwise, in Sounds & Notifications settings you can specify "Priority Interruptions" which you can select system Events and reminders (alarms), Calls and Messages you want to go through.
I use it for meetings and class... so far it has yet to allow a notification that I haven't set to priority.

Still they all vibrate, right?
If your turn on priority mode, no apps will push notifications to you, unless you prioritize them.
None disabled everything.

Nope, no notifications even vibrate lol. Priority mode means, no notifications will wake the device or vibrate unless you prioritize them.

What the other poster probably meant is that apps can bypass Priority mode. This has been thoroughly documented, and according to Google it's "working as intended". Some apps have already fixed it, like Whatsapp, and very recently, FB messenger, but other big ones like Viber and Skype are yet to do it. It's a big nuisance that one has to depend on app developers to conform in order for such an important OS function to work correctly.

You can get the app Nights Keeper, it will do the old silent mode and more. The free version should be enough for simple silent mode, but the premium is only a couple bucks. The actionable notification and the widget are awesome. No root required.

HTC U11 - Oreo 8.0 Buglist

I'm creating this thread to collect bugs found in the Oreo software that devs can take a look at for their ROMs, and possibly report to HTC depending on importance.
My first bug is cosmetic. The app icons are not consistent at all, and this goes further than the home screen launcher. If you hit the share button, the size of the icons vary, some big and some small.
My second bug is a little more annoying, and I'm not sure how to replicate. I was using Google Maps in and out of PiP mode (I drive Uber, so I come in and out of Maps constantly), and after some extensive switching, the PiP app wouldn't maximize, and my Recent Apps panel would not activate. The actual recents button could still activate multi-window, but it wouldn't cycle through the last two apps or activate the Recents carousel. The behavior returned to normal after a reboot. I am currently stock rooted, but I'm quite certain that has nothing to do with this issue. I will report if this happens again, and pay more attention to any possible causes. I might report this one to HTC.
My third bug is cosmetic, but a little on the annoying side. When switching Bluetooth audio profiles (found in dev options, for those who don't know), the codec that is displayed doesn't change, but you still hear the difference in audio. Also, aptx HD doesn't work for me. When selected, I hear no difference in the sound.
Ok....so my nav buttons are not working, but my home button is still working....am In the only one who is experiencing this? It is very sporadic, and fixes with a reboot.

PIP is not convenient to use now. For example, you can open youtube.com in chrome, request desktop site, play some video in fullscreen, press home button, then you get your PIP feature.
After update my battery reduction too much..
Maybe not exactly bugs, but a few things that bother me are how ugly the icons are and that it's using the default notification sound when I'm on low battery and it plays the notification sound coming in and out of night mode as well. I don't need to be notified with a sound about coming in and out of night mode and I'd prefer the regular buzz buzz sound of the low battery rather than thinking I got a message of something.
I hate the persistent notifications of things running in the background or drawing over... Not a bug, but a 'feature'.

It might seem a weird thing to do but try clearing cache and data from Google play services, playstore etc. I remember when I turned off all permissions to playservices my buttons stopped working as well except home button. Worth a try.

here the second solution works for me in my htc u11 whit oreo
https://www.thecustomdroid.com/hide-persistent-notifications-on-android-oreo/
Turn on Wi-Fi automatically
Turn on Wi-Fi automatically function is missing in wifi preferences, according to oreo new function it as to be there
The settings area on top has got to be the stupidest thing they have done. "Suggestions". Who the hell cares about it. Mine will not go away. Keeps saying connect usonic ear phones. I deleted all of touch pal junk as well.

Probably more a feature than a bug, but I miss being able to pull down the notification shade and toggling between Do Not Disturb, Priority Mode, and Normal. Now tapping the icon just turns on Priority Mode. I can't seem to find an easy way to turn on Do Not Disturb without long-pressing the icon. Does anyone else know a better way?

You can turn off the night mode notification. I set it to still show the icon in the top bar but not make a sound. It took a while to find, and I forget where it is. Maybe the notification settings for the system app.
When the screen is off and you double click the power button to access camera, it will not pop up with a preference choice (assuming you have more than one camera installed) unless you time it exactly with putting your fingerprint on the scanner
My shortcut options when you long press an icon are completely gone on every launcher.
Edit: Suddenly works. Odd.
My phone's bluetooth connects with my car's. Tried to play spotify But the audio plays on my phone still. My car sees th title of the song, just for display....Wasn't like this before the update... Must be the bluetooth 5.0 thing?

Notifications Issues Post Oreo Update

Hi,
Anyone experienced a problem with push notifications on Oreo? I've updated and now some apps are not giving me notifications.
Hangouts and Wordfued are the two I have experienced so far.
If you open the apps up and then go back to the home screen the notifications work. If you close them fro the app switcher screen they stop providing notifications.
Thanks
Andrew

Yes got tge same thing. Ebay, gumtree etc.
I'm dealing with this as well with Tumblr. :/
..and BBM.
More severe problem with whatsapp while the screen is off...
I found a way to get my tumblr notifications to work even after I've closed the app to stop it running in the background. It's not ideal, but until they release an official fix... Meh. Hopefully this works for you guys, too?

It's strange because I still get twitter notifications despite not having to go through this for that app. Hmmn.
Does anyone know how to change the default notification sound for Twitter? It used to be in the settings under push notifications- it would let you select the tone, now it isn't there. I can't find the option in phone settings either- I have 8.0.0.369 (C432).

Over time all the apps that were not working have started working fine. Not sure if that is down to it knowing which apps to keep open or software updates or something else.
Apologies I can't help more.
