OTP Not Coming After Pie Update? - Nokia 6.1 Plus (X6) Questions & Answers

From January 2019 when I updated my phone to Android Pie from Oreo, I have stopped receiving OTP.
Once time I cleared the messages cache and OTP came for 1 day, then it stopped coming again.
Any solution?

Hi, did you receive January security patch, after you updated to pie? what is you model? Mine is TA-1103... Also where are you?
If you are worried, backup what you want to keep and do a factory reset. This may fix things.

Yes - january patch installed.
Model is Nokia 6.1 plus - Indian version
No one knows the solution to this problem? I know Nokia phones are poorly made but still.

Hi, I read somewhere to get updates that are not automatically coming to the phone, there was a procedure Nokia suggested - Just got to find it again..
However, I found this:
Those people who are not able to update do the following steps
1. Go the play store check settings check if the phone is certified
2. If it’s not certified or you are stuck on old update take the phone the to the nearest service center of Nokia ask the service center representative to do software update and certify the phone
3. If you are stuck on old service update remove the SIM card reboot and connect to the WiFi and update the phone
Cheers

Have you tried a factory reset?? I assume you have not unlocked bootloader or flash any custom roms??

Hi mate,
I am still looking for the specific nokia solution..
This maybe a few things to try.
1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gF1KasRo2iY
2. https://www.theandroidsoul.com/how-to-force-download-android-9-pie-update-ota-update-nokia-phones/
These are similar to what i read before, if you can try them and see if they work.

Hi Xd, you gotta get a 2nd device to use, while you sort out any issues.
As my 6.1 plus has an unlocked bootloader, I can do what ever i want. Flash a stock rom with NOS or flash a GSI with fastbboot.
honestly Nokia phones are no different than any other phone I have modified, they each have there own challenges. its a learning thing.
Sounds like your in australia, i will PM you my number, give me a call and then then we can get your phone going again.

Hi XD, you can backup everything important in you phone, contacts, calls, sms etc search for backup in settings. You really need to factory reset to find out if that can fix the OTA issue. However it may also be network dependant. Can you switch sim cards?
Also, is the model of the phone TA-1083 DS????
talk soon.

Hi mate, I bought a 7 Plus a couple of days ago and faced the same problem with my banking apps. I have 3 banking apps that I needed to register on my new device and when they sent the verification codes I wasn't receiving any of them. After looking around on Google I found something that actually worked! All that resetting nonsense is what network operators and device manufacturers get you to do just so they can get through your problem quickly and mark it as solved. This is not any kind of solution you want to apply when you've just finished setting up your phone, you spend hours and hours setting up all your passworded apps, sideloaded apps, widgets, wallpapers, new launcher etc etc. There's no way you want to go through all that again!
Anyway, here's what I did. In the stock messaging app I went into the blocked contacts. To do this open the messaging app (Google's Messaging) tap the 3 dots in the top right corner and a menu will drop down, the second item on the list should be Blocked Contacts. Tap on this to open it and all the contacts you have blocked wil appear here. If you have any contacts on your list that have non-numerical details, for example I was getting texts from a fitness and health company called Banatynes and they used their company name instead of a phone number as the sender of their texts and I had blocked them. I had about 10 contacts with non-numerical details included, also some with +44 in front of their number, I took those off the blocked list too. Come out of the app and go to the App details,to do this long press on the app icon, in the menu box that appears select the settings cog in the top right corner to take you to another screen. In the lower part of your screen select App info. Now onto another screen, this time you select the Storage option and here you press Clear Cache and then Clear Storage. That's it, that's all there is to it, no rebooting, no resetting, no sacrificing 4 goats and your first born child to the Gods lol.
After I did this I went straight back to my banking apps, Tesco, Nat West and Barclaycard and finished registering them with no problems. All the OTP numbers came through instantly and the apps work perfectly. So, I hope this will help you and maybe some other people too having this issue, it's not a good look for Nokia when it's something important and necessary like this.

Microsoft MyPhone Premium features not working?

Hi,
I've been trying to get the MyPhone premium features trial (locate lost phone/remote ring etc.) to work on the HD2 and to set this up the service needs to send 12 silent messages to the phone. This worked on my old Polaris just fine but on the HD2 it fails to recieve these 12 messages and therfeore the service cant be used.
Does anyone else have this problem???
Thanks
Just gave it a go - same problem - FYI I'm on Vodafone..
Have you guy's updated your ROM to the newest version? Maybe HTC has fixed it... I don't know, but it's worth a try.
I've not flashed yet, due to the O2 branded ROM, might try the goldcard method on the weekend.
Anyone with the newer ROM care to try the free premium features trial and report back
Thanks

Hd2 my phone premium features dont work
I have a HD2 which i bought sim free which Im using on the Orange UK 3G network.
I've also noticed that the premium features on ms_myphone dont work with the HD2.
Along with everyone else, I get the message that the phone cannot be contacted.
As soon as the ROM is officially announced on the website of HTC: Report this issue. Maybe they fix it soon then...

TBH don't see the point in waiting until ROM is officially announced, after all it doesn't work in the current ROM neither! So reporting it as "not working" now just means they can't come back with a "this feature is supported in a forthcoming ROM" (or if they do then we'll know they are talking about something coming later in the pipeline than 1.48!).
I think the more people that report it the better; especially as the whole MS MyPhone feature doesn't seem to have had all that much marketing (at least the here in the UK) therefore the might not immediately be that many people complaining about it.
Just my opinion
Don't know if it's relevant, but having run MyPnone on the original ROM I was (as is standard) asked to download an update to the application. I did this and all was well until today when I was asked to download another update, which I have also done.
Why not see if there is any way to force this update - it may be a bugfix?

No, still doesn't work with my SIM free HD2 on Orange UK- "The ring/ lock request couldn't be sent due to a problem with our service"

Semi-relevent but sadly not a fix..
The 'updated' version of the MyPhone app contains the code for the 'Premium' service to work, however these in turn have to then be supported by the phone itself. FYI. Turns out what it does is constantly monitor your incoming txt messages for and intercepts specially formatted ones from the MS server instructing it to do something (ie. for the MyPhone app to launch and connect back to base, turn ringer to full and ring, acquire GPS fix, etc etc). I'd hazard a guess it is the HTC Sence txt messaging service which is preventing this service from working - after all it is known already not to play nice with the txt message notification queue and instead hog it to itself.
So in summary: without the update you'd have no chance of the location element of the Premium Services working, with it you still need support from your handset and it would seem up to ROM 1.48 at least we have sadly confirmed not to have this with the HD2 at this stage. A fix needs to come from either HTC or Microsoft (further updated to MyPhone app), or quite possibly both.
There's a relevant thread over at the MyPhone forum that I tried to add to http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/MyPhone/thread/57659d5c-2077-4387-9bda-92643e17cab7
not had a reply yet, maybe we need a new thread over there?
i think it must be the HTC messaging app ... has anyone install back the old windows message app, and try the myphone Premium features again?
Im going to bump this thread now that custom ROMS are out there and ask
Is anyone with the htc messaging removed able to set up the premium features of MyPhone?
How do you disable HTC messaging....?
Can you fully disable senseUI ?
On a stock rom....
Serriously, your telling me that no one cares about locating their lost phone, remote wiping etc!
but threads like oh god I bought the wrong phone get a responce
Any luck with a 1.66 ROM?

If you are looking for find my phone style software, forget the myphone premium, go look at Remotetracker. Free, and superb. Stuffed with tons of features. TXT your phone, it will call you back with the microphone open, another command will text you gps coordinates and a link to the position on google maps, another commands will start the gps, make a 5 minute track log and then text it to you in google earth compatible format,, send popup messages to teh phone, get it to send you all your contacts, get it to wipe the SD card, the list is endless.
http://remotetracker.sourceforge.net/
remotetracker is good but I would prefer to be able to use a website to contact my phone rather than having to send a text to it. also being able to ring the phone etc and view it on a map

VZW call+SMS filter app from Nokia will not install

As many already know the call+SMS filter does not block calls if your using the 928 on Verizons network, yet it works fine if you put it on another carrier.
I found this version of it at the Store - call+SMS filter ver. 1.5.4.2 - But can't get it to install, even on a dev unlocked phone. When I run XapDeploy it comes up with Invalid XAP file.
Could someone help me get this installed?
I'm thinking, possibly the one that VZW has installed on the phone is the reason the filter doesn't work properly.
Also is there a way to check what the version numbers are of the apps installed?
Thanks

Xap files downloaded from the store to a PC are encrypted and can only be installed from an sd card on supported devices. Also, in the one instance that I had to use this app on my Lumia 928 it worked just fine. If the app in the store is compatible with your device just install it from the store. You can uninstall the current app from settings by setting the date on your phone to 100 years in advance (2113) and opening the call/sms filter app. It should give an error with the option to uninstall. Don't forget to change the date back to current or you will have issues.
By the way the store version is the same as installed.

Don't do that !!!!!
I did it and now I can't install this feature. Anyway - this option is added with "extras+info" from your link I can't install too. I think, that only "hard reset" repair it.
Here's what you have to do, get the updated extras+info app. Open it, and click on More Info, wait a few seconds (like 5) close the app and you should see calls+sms filter in the Settings menu. If it isn't there, try that process again. It only works for Lumias with the Amber Update.
THX, but I have Amber and I have newest extras+info version (1.12.0.1). When I opened that and I wait 5, 10, 15, 60 sec call+sms filter don't show in the settings. In the first time (when I flashed Amber - august 5) I had calls+sms filter, but about 10 days he was broken. Now I haven't that option and I can't install that.

Wish I had known that before I flashed my phone... lol
Now that I've flashed it, the Amber update one come down to it :/
UPDATE: Just read that someone had spoken to VZW and Nokia, the Amber update for the 928 on VZW has been put on hold until end of Sept.
Anyone have the Amber update files for the 928?

Thank you tonbonz, I never even thought that.
Now I'm stuck with a non-Amber phone until VZW decides to release the updated version of it.
But I did manage to get the update files for the Black version(I have a White one) from Nokia, and I'm so tempted to fire up NCS to get Amber back,, lol

No prob... I thought Amber was already pushed to the 928? I used NCS. Pretty sure there are links to the files for the white version somewhere in the WP8 hacking forums. Ahhh here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2300865&page=2

Terrific! Thanks yet again!!
It did go OTA the other week. But they put a hold on it. Sounds like they are updating it, I guess bug fixes. There was a couple people on another forum that got replacement phones and didn't have Amber on them and no updates available when checking on the phone. So they contacted VZW and Nokia and where informed of this Amber 'hold' but should be getting it soon, most people should have it by the end of September.
I was messing with NCS today and flashed what I just got and it's definitely not Amber.
Has anyone done a hard reset to see if they can get the call+sms filter working on VZW? I have been trying to get an answer out of Nokia and VZW on this and all I get is "do a factory reset". They also claim I am the only one they know of having this issue (yet I sent links to a few forums, including Nokia's own where there is a thread on this).
extras+info just updated their app today. I would download that and try it again.
http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/extras-info/2377fe1b-c10f-47da-92f3-fc517345a3c0
If that doesn't work, try a hard reset, update the extras+info and then try that.
Got Amber back on the phone and the updated Extras+Info. But the call+SMS filter wasn't updated yet. So still a no go blocking calls with it on Verizons network.

Do we know anymore info on this? After rooting the s7 (at&t) everything was fine, accept sending texts through messeges failed. Then this notification came up, I could not remove it from notifications. I did a restart and got stuck in boot loop and had to factory reset. Now, I haven't finished root yet, but still on same rom and this has popped up again.

i got the stupid devil faced notification too. its also from com.sec.vsimservice . I never had this before but it seems ever since i started using Digits from t-mobile.
I cannot remove it for the life of me and it doesnt matter what rom i am on. I tried clearing cache and data and also blocking notifications but i can still see it when i pull down the notifications. I get it right after i send a chat message using default samsung chat app. BTW im on the note 5 t-mobile.
EDIT: i found out that vsimservice stands for virtual sim service. Well it must be freaken t-mobile Digits beta program... =/ so annoying.
I started getting the devil notification after root on stock every time I get a voicemail. I can clear it like any other notification, it's just annoying.

Mike the file nerd
I'm far from an expert at this but I could tell you how to avoid the problem in the future. I assume that if you have access to directories that contain system preconfig apps you must be running root privilege. Follow down the path to you're particular carrier. In my case I'm technically running on unlocked carrier but for the most part my phone still believes it is AIO(Cricket) ie boot still runs cricket sales code still runs as AIO. ECT. so in my example the file path would be /system/omc/AIO/etc. Inside your carriers file you will find several manifest (.xml) and text (.txt) files somthing along the lines of default_application_order.xml and/or enforcedskippingpackages.txt In my case on my s8 I have both. I haven't personally tried this yet so don't blame me if you try it and turn you phone into an 800$ paperweight (disclaimer) not to mention tampering xml is slightly outside of ethical phone use! That being said I'm of the opinion at least in my own case; if I pay for a device and don't have a contract against it i.e. I outright own the device I may set it up as i please. (Disclaimer) So ethics behind us. If I were to be experiencing this problem I would start by adding the problem pkg (...vsim...apk) whatever yours is called to the enforcedskipping.txt first (as it's slightly less unethical to change a text than a manifest) second find the system app either by an app like sysapp remover or like a real man inside the file system under probably something along the lines of "priv-app" dir or by superuser enabled terminals either abd via your computer/mac/linux whatever you run or by one of the many available terminals in the store of your choice and uninstall your problem apps (i highly suggest making a complete nandroid backup or tar or whatever recovery you use first and also saving a copy of the apk just in case) reboot your phone to recovery clear your cache partition remount the system and reboot. If this hasn't cleared up your problem back to recovery for a factory wipe with said modified files in place and backup ready. Reinstall everything then restore your backup via cmw/twrp/safestrap/bootstrap/odin/lgbridge/etc.etcetc whatever your preferred recovery method is your problem should be fixed. If still not mod the xml instead of the txt and restart from step one. Once again I do not know what dependency/gradles/etc may or may not depend on this what functions you may kill sim cards locked/ruined etc and I'm no professional so if you brick☠??? your ??that's on you for listening to an amateur enthusiast. Now I'm sure one of our wonderful experts here will come along and correct everything I've just said but I'm ok with this I listen to these guys every day I wouldn't know a fraction of the things I do without this wonderful forum and these amazing devs. So I appreciate their criticism as tutoring.
---------- Post added at 04:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:38 AM ----------
With all that said and out of the way I would like to hear from anyone who has tried this personally or other method for removing this as I myself was led to this particular thread because I was investigating the possibility of what I could change within this particular system app myself. I brick my phone phone twice a day usually so before I crash my very well set up system I usually investigate first the reciprocation/ramifications of adjusting system orientated files/apps.

Locksceen PIN Bug!!! ON ESSENTIAL!!!

I have been updated to android ten and now the lock screen will revert back to the lock screen every time you put in the pin even if its correct. I seen the pixel is having the problem also. Ive tried to change to a password instead of the in and it wont let me change it because it asks for the pin to change it and does the same thing and if you twice it crashes settings app. I went to turn oem unlock bootloader in case it turned off and couldn't get back in and it wont even let me turn oem unlock on because it ask for a pin and then does the same thing then setting app crashes. Is anyone experiencing this and what is the work around?
Not a real solution, but it appears you can add a new user and still use the phone while you wait for a real fix from Google/Essential.
https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/12740836?msgid=15068331
Another post early in thread suggests resetting the phone in recovery, of course you will lose your apps and user data.

So I had been on Android 10 since it came out everything worked fine until yesterday was trying to put in my pin, and it would do what I explained. I didn't think anything of it until I seen the article about the pixel and then I knew it was the same bug. This almost has to be a server side change because my phone was fine until yesterday. I tried everything I could find to fix it and it will not let you change the user on essential. Ultimately I did reset in recovery because the phone isn't functional after this bug hits.

So I had been on Android 10 since it came out everything worked fine until yesterday was trying to put in my pin, and it would do what I explained. I didn't think anything of it until I seen the article about the pixel and then I knew it was the same bug. This almost has to be a server side change because my phone was fine until yesterday.

Any chance that your phone automatically did an OTA update just before having this problem? There's a small hotfix that just released.

Which hotfix? Released when? Any info on it? Essential website doesn't have any new builds/updates. Update check in Settings also doesn't find anything...

same here, I guess he means the one a couple of weeks ago that fixed LTE+ etc. I'm not aware of any other.
Has anyone with this problem tried the sign in via emergency call option some have managed with Pixel?

My phone didnt update same build as I have had. It just happened I didnt do anything out of the ordinary and once you reboot after it hits the phone is pretty much unusable until you factory reset from recovery.

You can get into the settings with that method but it wont let you do anything from the setting that would be useful. I seen where on pixel you can change users and use the phone but this option wouldnt work on the essential for me.
You can try deleting /lockscreen.db in data/system/lockscreen.db
That will delete your current lock screen password but won't touch anything else. Just go in twrp and mount system and go to advanced/file manager and navigate to said file and swipe to delete.
Probably not very much help but just an idea...

DO NOT DO THIS...
Your encryption is tied to this... And you will need to format data to fix it...
Sheesh

I'm not encrypted. Makes sense.
Has a fix for this been provided?
I have updated my phone yesterday and I cannot login with the Pin, I can only login with the fingerprint.

Firmware vC33 (International only) is out!

Here, as usual for the "vendor" package.
For the full ROM upgrade you have to go to the proper support website.
Not for EU variant?
Thank you very much for the info an download - any news on the changelog?
here is some info:

Did you guys try it? I saw a few screenshots somewhere that there are some new AOD styles, is that true? As the ones that are available now are very bland (made them like they don't care) that would be a huge deal for me.

Hey ! I downloaded update from Indian site and my phone is global (europe). As far as I see there's much more clock styles for AOD. Screenshots in attachment.

As I see those are the same as they are present now. Is the new update Realme UI 2.0, or is that reserved for Android 11?

The linked stuff os just the firmware, the so called "vendor blob".
For the full ROM update you have to reach out Realme's support site, something like this and select "realme X2 pro".

Yeah I'm just waiting for the release on EU website as I've always done, just feel more confident that way. I'm just curious, I can't find the website again which showed the new AOD style, so you guys don't see new stuff?
is global version de eu version?
how do i know which i have.
I also receive the OTA but I can't find it on the realme support page, it still show the .32
Little question, I'm currently rooted. Can I installe the OTA via the Realme updater without issue ? (except the loss of root, but I don't care)
I've noticed an issue with the dialer. When calling someone there is no dialer tone so I don't know if it's actually ringing until the other person answers. Did anyone else notice this issue after updating to c.33?

Hello.
I've made the C33 update too but I don't have the behavior you're describing.
I tried calling multiple phone numbers I have at the office (mobile and fix) and each time I was hearing the usual tone before people pick up the line.
By my side, I have noticed another strange issue, but I don't know if it's due to the C33 update or if it's is due to something coming from my unit only.
After finishing the update process, the phone restarts normally but at the beginning I have a pop-up message asking me if I want to activate location services.
Each time I reboot my device, this pop-up message does show and I have to accept it even if the location services hasn't been switched OFF before reboot.
This pop-up message doesn't show if I make a restart instead of a reboot.
However, the more annoying thing is that the GNSS services aren't working as before whatever a restart or reboot is done.
If I use a GPS test application, I usually can see the number of sats and all the relevant details they give (NMEA messaged, etc...).
But since C33 update, I can see these information only for a minute or a few more, then they stop being refreshed and no other information are available than the position and speed.
It doesn't affect navigation, but I have some personal tracking project and these information were essential for my needs.
Can someone make a test with its X2 Pro and tell me if this issue does only concern my phone and not the C33 update?

I have exactly the same symptoms. GPS tool works after reboot for three minutes. Then all satellites are gone. See second screenshot. Navigation keeps working and is accurate. I do not have a "enable location pop-up" after each reboot.
I have X2pro 12/256 global with C33.

I do not get this message when rebooting, but I do have the same with the GPS test app (tried 2). It does give my right location also when moving around so the GPS does work correctly.
Thank you people for the quick feedback.
I don't know if it is possible to apply C32 *.ozip package after a C33 update to recheck if the behavior was also present in previous firmware release.
I tried looking for some answers about firmware version reverts, but I can only find downgrade process to go back to Android 9, and it isn't what I want to do.
I know this type of NMEA informations isn't relevant for everybody, but in my case this issue has a huge impact on a bench metrology system I'm using and using my phone as a GNSS Location tracker is a very handy solution.
It was properly working in July then I had to debug other matters before using back this function again in November.
If I was aware this update will affect my phone, I will probably not apply it...
I didn't notice any issues while using Google Maps, nor did I see any warning messages, but I've noticed the same thing using the gps test app.
