[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] crash_194:
3hr 28 minutes of screen on time now with 43% battery left. Still on WiFi but have been playing a bit of order and chaos 2, reading the news, browsing forums and general Internet surfing. I don't have much on in terms of push notifications other than Gmail and have my Samsung Internet app syncing and some stuff related to my Google account.

If it's of any help at all, my phone is on the 3 network in the UK running the stock 3 branded firmware.

[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnjingle:
I have two Fire HD 10's that are rooted using the SuperTool.

I've read a lot on the forum and can't seem to find an answer on whether or not we can ever upgrade to the latest firmware without losing root. I know that I obviously cannot take the OTA.

Is anyone working on a modified version of the firmware so that we can safely upgrade?

Thank you for any help, if I missed something and I'm asking a dumb question, I apologize.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
Yes, updating the firmware will remove root access
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] km8j:
Anyone else seeing a bunch of Verizon apps when browsing their app list via settings on the unlocked model? I'm on T-Mobile and yet have Verizon Login, vzw_api, VZW_multicast_mw, vzwapn, vzw oma trigger (cannot be disabled). What gives?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] matrix0886:
My guess is that Google put these in there since the Pixel was built to work with Verizon as the "exclusive" carrier. But it still doesn't make sense since Verizon dabbles with the software on their version anyway.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] KrAsH86:
The ones that come pre-installed are for WiFi calling, VVM, and Video Calling.

Both models will install extra apps from the Play Store if setup with a VZW sim-card.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] km8j:
I'm on T-Mobile though...
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] KrAsH86:
I get this, Sprint also has an app or two pre-installed to handle their carrier specifics. It doesn't mean that they are "active".
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] dhoppy:
Sorry if this is considered a hijack, but if I buy an unlocked version from Google, will it work with Verizon WiFi calling? Anyone tested this?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] scottjb:
I've read that the answer is yes, WiFi calling should work for both Verizon and T-Mobile on the unlocked Pixels. I don't know how to tell if it's working on mine. I have an unlocked Pixel on Verizon. If someone knows how to tell, please let me know and I'll check.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] dhoppy:
Put it in airplane mode, then turn wifi back on and try to make a call.

On my Galaxy S7 I first had to enable wifi calling. Verizon does wifi calling differently from everyone else, it is part of advanced calling, and that is why I am dubious that it works on the unlocked version.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] fitchpuckman:
oddly i dont see them in my apps list (I'm on unlocked from google store version), but I DO see them when I scroll through my lists of apps in the battery optimization menu. I just randomly noticed this like 20 minutes ago for a totally unrelated reason. also, screw verizon.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] scottjb:
I enabled WiFi calling, put it in airplane mode, turned on WiFi, and attempted to make a call. The phone told me to come out of airplane mode. I checked the settings and saw that WiFi calling was set to prefer cellular network. I saw no way to change the preference to WiFi. Seems it will only do WiFi calling if there is no cellular coverage available.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] dhoppy:
Other carriers let you change the preference to WiFi, but not Verizon. I've had that message before and had to reboot and try again on my S7. If you are on a poor cell signal, the phone will switch to WiFi, and you will get a small WiFi icon on the call screen. If I answer a call in my house with the cell radio on, it takes about 3 seconds to switch over. During those 3 seconds the person I'm talking to is saying "hello," "hello." So, I try to leave my phone in airplane mode with WiFi on when at home.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] KrAsH86:
So far I have not found a way to "force" wifi calling on either model.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Wynnded:
This is all it takes for me. I don't know about receiving calls via WiFi yet though. I doubt that it made a difference, but I'll mention that I partially set up my Google Store purchased device over WiFi before turning it off and inserting my Verizon SIM. I didn't log into any accounts while on WiFi, only after putting in the SIM. It also updated from build NDE63L to NDE63P, and I have some VZW specific apps as mentioned, but they're not in the app drawer.

it happened like every once a day. some times I have to do battery pull twice a day.

I had this phone for a wk now.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] HikariNoKitsune:
Its not just you. And I don't think its exactly something to do with Android 7.0

If you look at how your audio menu is when you change the ringer volume, you'll see that when the phone is set to vibrate, it actually MUTES the other two sliders.. it doesn't set them to vibrate. With that in mind, it seems more likely LG has a bug, than Android 7.0 having a bug.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Rcguru:
Having this problem as well with my H910 (AT&T). It's very frustrating indeed. What's even worse is that it seems sporadic in nature, sometimes I will get a notification chime, sometimes I won't. As skyedream said, a battery pull is the only way to get consistent notification sounds, if only temporarily.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] artvandalay22222:
I think I get this too. Often I pull my phone out of pocket to find I had a text that I never heard.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Phakt42:
This happens to me as well. Also, I will get double notification sounds at times. Like an echo. Or, a different sound mixed with my selected sound. A reboot fixes. Have to do it a couple times a day. Very annoying.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Digitalaks:
No sound for notifications + no web video playback

I also have same issue with notifications. No pattern on what causes this, but a reboot gets rid of this (just for sometime! and the problem is back). I have also noticed apps not working smoothly and unable to play web videos including from Youtube app and Facebook App. Overall, tad disappointed with the software quality on this set. :(:(:(:(
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] DeesXDA:
Phone notification vibrate shuts off all other notification sounds

Good call, thanks! I also notice that even though I have Sound Settings-Volume-Touch & Feedback sounds Off, I still get haptic feedback vibration on keyboard while typing this reply to you. It goes away when I go into Sound Settings-Vibration Strength, & turn slider off for Vibrate on tap. The Settings software isn't connecting the overall Volume Profile with the Vibrate Strength settings it seems. I don't know enough to know whether this is Android or LG. Under Vibrate Strength you can control notifications too, though haven't yet tested. Hope this helps til it gets fixed.

---------- Post added at 07:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 PM ----------

I just tested texting...even though on quick settings slider notifications for text are grayed out, while call setting show vibrate only, in the full settings menu, under Vibrate Strength, you can slide the vibration strength up...I did this, sent myself a text, and phone vibrated the notification. I think it's messed up that I can't shut my call notification off completely, including nvibrate quickly with volume key or quick settings. Have to go into full settings menu sound & select silent. Please fix this Android/LG.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] DeNitE:
Ya, I have the exact same problem... (I have a H990DS)

I can't seem to even fix it with a reboot.

I have emailed LG about the problem - we'll see what they say...
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] valefour:
I experience the same as you. I usually clear regents and then hit restart and all my notification sounds come back and videos. I'm just wondering, are you using any type of ad blocker? I use the ad block browser and I've noticed that whenever I open my browser, that's when my notifications get muted.

Anyone ever find a fix? Having these issues on a new LG V20 US Unlocked connected to Verizon.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Norma Stitz:
Bumping this to see if anyone has found a solution to this. My V10 started muting notifications when the ringer volume was set to vibrate on one of its later updates. I figured it was a glitch in my phone since I didn't see anyone else complaining about it. This was one of the reasons i decided to upgrade to a V20. I was pretty surprised that it did the exact same thing and it's apparently by design. Who in their right mind would think this was a good idea?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Zoandroid:
I'm not sure of the cause, but I had many calendar reminder alarms fail to sound over several days when I got this V20. I tried different calendar apps and ended up with one called aCalendar. It works OK most of the time, but there is still a serious issue. If ANY other kind of notification happens to sound right when a calendar alarm needs to sound, the calendar will NEVER sound its reminder notification for the alarm. I've had this happen several times with incoming text or social networking message notifications. I hear those, and then the subsequent alarm that should have sounded concurrently is silent. I've had to set 2 reminders for the same important event, spaced 10 minutes apart, to try to reduce the odds of this issue hijacking an important notification. I've not seen this exact problem ever before on any Android device. My US Unlocked V20 is 100% stock. No idea what to do about it. But from what I can glean online, neither LG nor Verizon plan to push any future updates on the V20, so we're stuck.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] klear6:
I am using a rooted HTC One m10 with Viper ROM and am having the same problem. Echos notification noises, turns off alarm and notification sounds, and it is beyond annoying. I have already had to reset it twice to try to fix it and nothing has worked. I have no idea what is causing it but when I try to open my alarm app it says it was disabled and could have been caused by a system time change (which didnt happen) or battery saving (where I have it whitelisted). I will try disabling my ad-blocker. I'm not sure how those things could be connected but since it was suggested I will give it a go. I am consulting all of the developers I know about this but so far nobody has an answer. I am kind of starting to freak out because I need my phone to work. I have 3 kids under the age of 6 in school and need to know when someone has to get in touch with me. Before the last reset, I also saw that when my notification was disabled and I went back in to reenable it, it had been switched back to the sound I had selected the time before that. One more note. When I go in to check my notification noises, all of them, my ringer, notifications, and alarm, are all blank for about one half second before they repopulate and then show the correct tones. If it were as simple as it being my ROM someone would have posted it on the thread because it is a pretty big problem to have gone unnoticed. Is it possible we are all running an app or have a shared setting that is causing this to happen to only us. I had to dig pretty hard to find this thread in the first place. It might help if we posted a list of our apps, what do you guys think?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Zoandroid:
Hi. You posted this in the wrong area. This is for the LG V20. Try searching the HTC One M10 area for a solution. Someone there might be able to help you. :)
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] zelda88:
Hi all, Just registered on this forum to let you know my findings....

I've had this issue for a couple of years, first on my LG G Flex 2 and now on the LG V20. After doing some digging and some tests I've figured out whats causing my issue with the notifications suddenly not sounding - Android Wear

So like many of you guys I found that the issue will occur suddenly and usually a restart of the phone will restore the notifications sound until the next time it happens. So the other day when the sound issued appeared again I uninstalled Android Wear and low and behold the sound returned. Obviously I couldn't permanently have it uninstalled so after reinstalling I waited for the fault to occur and when it did, a 'Force Stop' will temporarily fix the issue.

So there have it, not a fix as such but managed to locate the root cause. Doing a force stop beats restarting the phone but granted hardly Ideal. I've read somewhere its a known fault with Android Wear so hopefully Google will implement a fix for this. Any of you guys confirm you're using Android Wear?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Zoandroid:
I can confirm I am NOT using Android Wear, and every Android phone (in a long list) I have owned since their inception WILL sooner or later fail to sound a calendar alarm notification. Sometimes several in a row. Then, they magically start again. Sometimes from a reboot, and sometimes all on their own. The last time the day's first 2 daily repeating alarms skipped out on sounding, they "eventually" both sounded off 4 hours later, right after the 4th daily repeating alarm sounded. I've never seen a cure. Some calendar apps work better on some phones, but in every case for me the calendar app is tied to Google Calendar on any Android device.

I should also mention this problem also persisted on Windows Mobile before that, and on Palm OS before that! But I've had the least trouble overall on Android OS. For whatever reason, product designers just can't make a reliable alarm handler in a smartphone, no matter who they design for.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] idntknoyunw:
Lgv20 AT&T stock h910 and this problem has been driving me a little crazy the last couple days not getting notifications with the screen off as it sleeps.

I've hunted online and seen a lot of the possible solutions but my thought is and I find on my phone I installed comodo Mobile Security, on the settings of comodo there is a box to enable secure Wi-Fi I had that checked and I was going back and forth with a second phone sending myself Gmail's to check settings to see if any settings would disable it and allow that audio signal for incoming messages once I uncheck that and did a test it is now working! So I believe if anybody has added security to their system that it may well be that issue. Also note that my system is still running on stock nougat 7.0 still waiting for AT&T update

The other issue I have is that I have switching 2 Wi-Fi with poor reception on the AT&T at my location at home so almost all of my use is in reference to this phone not giving me notifications around the house which would coincide with the Wi-Fi security -signal notification blocking the audio.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] spudse:
About 9 months ago a colleague (also active on this forum) installed WM6 Black on my Vario 2. Today I tried to share the internet connection (for the first time), but to do this I have to be connected with Activesync.

I installed ActiveSync and connected my Vario2 to my computer (Win XP) using a USB cable. There was no response from the computer at all when I plugged in the cable and also Activesync "Get connected" wizard couldn't connect to the device. It did tell me that USB is available.

The only indication of the connection is the orange light that tells me the battery is charging.

Since there are no messages that give me any idea about what's going on, I have no clue what to do next. Also, I tried two different cables, which work with other devices.

Can somebody please help me out? I have to move places tomorrow and won't have a wired connected for about 6 weeks. I don't think I will survive without a internet connection :)

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dirty_finnagin:
I have been trying for months now to install the unofficial CM13 for Xperia Play R800x, but to no avail. Everytime I try to install the rom, it tells me that my device is not supported. It's looking for the R800i, R800a and the R800at. As stated before, mine is the R800x. I have scoured the internet for months trying to find a version that supports the R800x, but have found nothing. I even tried editing the updater-script with notepad++ but I still get errors when installing through CWM. Is there anyone that is still around that could help me with this?
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I didn't know:
I think that you are not doing things right, as I know you can only change name of r800a to r800i un the buildprop archive. Because they have the same hardware.

Yours is r800x, this one is the CDMA version then you do not have sim card slot and the way to work in network hardware is different than other models.

You can only install a few ROMs I think. The only ones that have CDMA version or have a fix for that.

I'm a newbi and maybe I'm wrong, if it is any r800 dev can correct me. I want to learn too.
