WhatsApp screen timeout - Moto G7 Questions & Answers

On the G7, if I type a message on WhatsApp and let the screen timeout, when I use the phone again, the message is gone and I have to start again!! This doesn't happen on any other android phone I've had, any explanation???

I tried to replicate this issue and could not.
When waking my g7 after screen time out the message that I wrote but have not sent is still present.
WhatsApp version 2.19.134

locking the screen

hello everyone, quick question
im looking for a locking program that will lock the screen when i press the power button (device goes into standby) and when it wakes up
the default locking program with WM is annoying because you can lock the phone BUT when u get an incoming call or text message, the screen becomes unlocked again and its easy to "answer" it accidently when its in your pocket. this is particularly annoying with text messages, because most of the time i wont even realize i have one and the phone will be awake for hours draining the battery and waiting to be pushed. anyways ive done several searches and come up with the following solutions, none of which work for me
1. S2U2, i dont like it, i tried it, wont use it again
2. SensorLock - An EXCELLENT locker, except it wont work on phones without Accelerometers...works wonderfully on the diamond tho
can anyone suggest something to me
First, set timeout for turning screen off autoamtically. This will solve SMS wakeup problem - screen will turn off automatically after some time.
Next thing, incoming calls - there is great Onyx ROM with Opal's slider - to answer a call, you need to slide your finger from center to left (or to right to ignore it). You can't answer accidentally using it
i appreciate your suggestions but neither works for me
i tried the opal but it didnt work properly, i actually had to hard reset to get rid of it
as for the timeout, it still doesnt solve the problem of the phone becoming ACTIVE as soon as a notification or text message is received

Screen doesn't turn on after new email.

1024 Leo, USA T-Mobile version.
It only happens with incoming email, SMS and calls are fine.
When I try to reproduce the problem, I simply have to wait for the phone to check for new mail. The the phone notifies me about new email. If I try to turn the screen on, it won't. The hard button lights up, indicating the phone is on but I can't interact with the screen. Resetting the phone via the red button is the only remedy.
If I act real fast when new mail comes, sometimes I'm able to start sliding to unlock but it still crashes. If I'm really fast I'm able to even get to the mail screen but it still crashes.
But the crash does not occur if I'm already using the phone when new email comes in. If I want to reproduce it, I have to leave the phone "alone", with the screen off. If the screen is on when the new mail comes in, the crash does not occur.
The problem started occurring with completely stock phone, the very first day, without making changes. As I cab tweaked the phone, (no ROM) the problem persists, it happens.
Because of this problem, when I wake up in the morning, I can't use my phone because the screen doesn't turn on and I have to restart the phone so I can use it. My mail send/receive interval is set for 4 hours so while I sleep the phone receives new email at least once.
I investigated similar problems for TP2 and Touch HD but it does not help.
I backed up everything on my phone so I'm ready to make changes if you have any advice. I checked for: changing the email ring tone, wake up on new email setting. They have no effect on this problem.
After this happens, I tried calling my phone. It will not ring, but the hard buttons light up but are unresponsive, I can't neither pick up nor reject the incoming call. I sent an SMS to the phone in this state, it didn't do anything.
Do you have knowledge that can help me? Is anyone willing to try to reproduce the problem on their phone?
All you would do is set any ring tone for incoming mail, leave the phone with the screen off and "wait" for new email to come in. Don't do anything for a minute and then check if the crash occurred.
Please help, I hate waking up to a crashed phone that I need to restart every time. Because of this problem, setting a wake up alarm is useless.
If you can't help with this, at least is there any way I can "force" the phone to restart without removing the battery cover?
Thank you.

Notifications are not cleared when already in app

Anyone notice how when you're already in an app with the screen off and you receive a notification for that app, when you turn the screen on it doesn't automatically clear it? For example, I'm on the home screen, turn the screen off, receive a text, turn screen on, open message thread, notification cleared. I REMAIN in message thread, turn screen off, receive another text from the same person, turn screen on, even though I'm already in the thread, the notification remains. This is extremely annoying because if you leave a message thread up, you must constantly clear notifications for no good reason.
Would you all consider this a bug? What's the best way to submit this to HTC?
EDIT: On second thought, this may only happen when the lock screen is disabled. I could've sworn I've seen it happen before even with the lock screen enabled, but only intermittently.

LG v20 notifications not showing occasionally (until phone is unlocked)

Hi guys, I wonder if this is a setting issue or something.
I have my phone set to vibrate mode. I get notifications on second screen as per normal when i am using the phone. When the phone is locked, sometimes I still get instant notifications (ie. gmail, whatsapp etc)
But sometimes the phone doesn't show any notifications at all! (Noticed this as I was logged into gmail on pc, I had new emails but none were popping on the phone)
However, upon unlocking the phone, all the notifications started popping in!!
This defeats the purpose of a second screen if I have to unlock the phone to receive notifications!
Please help~
It sounds like the phone went to 'sleep' and doesn't wake even as I get new mails and stuff.
EDIT: I have tried battery optimization, set gmail and other mail apps to ignore. But that doesn't help.

Doze acting weird or missing a setting

I installed Linaege on my 6P, once I lock the screen the phone seems to become disconnected forr the internet or stops pushing notifications.
when I receive a message it wont pop up unless i turn on my screen, the exact same second i turn on my screen i receive my messages, while being at the lock screen.
Does anyone have a clue, i never had this problem on stock before as I can remember.
