I have checked that and toggled on/off numerous times. Still no dot. This isn't the end of the world considering there's a notification in the top bar, but annoying.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] avalvidares:
I do not have dot either. Oreo notification channels do not work in any way. In the menu that appears when you hold the icon, there is no reference to the notification even if you have it in the top bar.

Won't show incoming calls

I have the Oreo 3.18.651.3 version yesterday and for some reason. I do not see incoming calls. I can see when other people are calling while I'm on the phone with someone and I can see the vmail they leave, and calling out is not a problem either. I tried to re-slot the sim card and go to wifi calling and back, not none of that seem to solve the issue. I still couldn't see my incoming calls when i was on "wifi only" calling, so I narrowed it down to being a settings issue with the new OP. Anyone else having this issue? :confused:
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rolo42:
I may be able to help since I've had similar wonkiness: I suddenly started getting a slow charge notification where I didn't before (plugged into the PC, which is typical for me) and it stopped showing up as a portable device in Windows and the Sync Manager wouldn't connect. All this worked fine yesterday (and for many months prior with the same computer, port, and cable) after I flashed/updated but today, wonkiness. Power-cycling everything didn't help and uninstalling the device didn't either.

Moving my phone from the ASMedia USB 3.1 port to an Intel USB 3.0 port rectified the situation. If in Windows, use Device Manager and View By Connection to see which hubs/ports its connected to.

My guess is that some incompatibility is causing the phone to think the computer is just a charger and the phone is trying to negotiate with a charger and, well, failing. I don't know why all of the sudden it's a problem.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] simplex19:
Hmm, seems weird. I do see the dot and the reference of the notification in the pop up on long press, at least for play store that is. Not too sure if it is an app-related problem or something else. Don't know what other advice can I offer..
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] macschwag14:
Thank you! I'll give this a shot on my PC and try something similar with my Mac for work, which is where I first experienced this. I wondered if it was related to USB 3.X and the phone's USB C port since Windows 10 goes haywire with constant disconnecting and reconnecting whenever I've got the phone plugged into a USB 3.0 port on my PC as an ADB device.

Between now having to charge multiple times per day and the doinking around with bugs, jumping on the Oreo train has been a poor choice thus far.

Greetings. I wanna ask to those who've done the update did you have the mobile for a long time or did you buy it now,for example, and then you upgraded it?!?!

Im telling this because some people said that those who had it one year or more are experiencing some issues with the battery and etc. And those who bought it now(this month),made the update and its ok.

I dont wanna change another brand...i have htc m8 and i wanna buy again htc...

Hey there, I've been having the same issue as you. Drove me nuts for a bit but I've found the solution (or at least for my case).

Hope this helps! :)
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] simplex19:
It is probably because of your screen display size. When I use default size, the position of the arrow is exactly the same as yours. I am normally using the smallest display size. My sense home version is 9.50.1009415.

The problem of set notification sound by application still needs to be solved. It would be interesting to find a solution, although I do not think it's that simple.

Thanks man, i had to redo a factory reset. Now the problem is solved, by the way i had uninstaled boost+ when this happened, very strange :confused:
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] LaLa Land:
Thanks for the input! This was already checked, and I get (and have been for a day or two) dots for stock mail app. Not sure about any others, as I don't use a ton of the native apps, but the Signal is still not showing dots. It's either the app (although I swear it had them right after the upgrade) or it's time for a hard reset :(

---------- Post added at 10:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:17 AM ----------

I'm now hesitant to hard reset since my notification sounds are all still app-specific - it seems like that's not the case for others?

Also, Mail is now showing the dot and the number of unread messages badge. If I turn of "show badge" the dot stops, but the number badge remains. Any way to do the reverse?

Oy. This will teach me (again) to update before reading XDA threads...

updated to Oreo. and now when i am trying to push the latest version of twrp it is showing cant be done when S-On. its a bug or something else. never faced something like this in nougat. tried three different version of twrp. no luck .
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rolo42:
Without knowing what you are doing, exactly, it's difficult/impossible to troubleshoot.

TWRP 3.2.1-2 on stock Oreo S-ON works without a hitch.

What file are you flashing? How are you flashing it? Are you using htc's fastboot and not Android's? Are you following the TWRP instructions in the TWRP thread? (which is where this question should be since your issue is with flashing TWRP)
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] rajkatiyar07:
yes i am following the instructions.

adb and fastboot drivers installed

debugging on

HTC drivers installed

everything is there . but after booting in bootloader and flashing twrp "adb fastboot flash twrp.IMG" giving an error.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tarima:
Those are not the instructions in the twrp thread. Needs to be in download mode, and the command should be

Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

Appalling battery life

So here I am like many others with buggy 3.16.617.2 (US unlocked). I can live (for now) with the notification sound but and lousy Bluetooth connectivity z but battery life has really made my phone useless. 47 minutes of SOT and some music through Bluetooth. See the attached screenshot...

How do we let HTC know about this and make sure this isn't the last update?
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rolo42:
Did you do a factory reset after updating? Or, at least wipe both caches?

What you're showing is an estimate, not actual battery time. When your phone shuts off and won't power on, that's your battery life. Battery stats are probably in a state of flux.

My notification sounds work as always (I change each app) and BT works fine with all my devices.

I did a Nougat RUU, performed OTA, performed FDR, installed a bunch of apps/app updates, phone got sluggish, installed TWRP, Magisk, AdAway, cleared caches, everything is zippy, working perfectly. I got 3h SoT+20h standby on the first day before I shut the phone off manually at 1% to charge it.

Sidebar: Google Pay wouldn't work fully stock with an unlocked bootloader; installing TWRP+Magisk got Google Pay working just fine. I (and my wife) can't not see TWRP+root+AdAway+TitaniumBackup as necessary things.

HTC 10 battery drain after Oreo update Jan/Feb, 2018. Simple Fix

My battery was draining fast after the Jan/Feb 2018 Oreo update. (15% loss per hour) I can't explain why this worked, but it did. Maybe the reboot involved did it.

Settings > System Updates > Update Profile, then wait for reboot. Then,

Settings > System Updates > Update PRL, then wait for reboot. Then,

Settings > System Updates > HTC Software Update.

It takes about 5 minutes, and my battery is better than before the Oreo update.

I think the first reboot corrected the drainage issue, but I did all three.

Hope this helps.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] benitorios:
I'm fully stock, not rooted, nothing, which I guess makes my case similar to the average user with no knowledge of these things. If doing all that advanced stuff is what it takes to get the phone running properly on Oreo, that doesn't reflect well on the job HTC has done.

I did a factory reset (first thing I did after installing the OTA update) but will try it again just in case it helps settle things a bit.

And I don't have the options mentioned by st8farmer under System Update (guess that's because I'm on stock)
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rolo42:
The 'advanced stuff' isn't limited to Oreo; it's all of Android. The issue is not giving users root/sysadmin privileges but sometimes those are necessary to keep things running properly, especially during major software changes.

If you've already done FDR after OTA, I can't see much use for doing it again unless you want to undo all your changes since then and if so and if there's an Oreo RUU available for your variant, I would use that. Otherwise, I would look for a non-TWRP way to clear ART/Dalvik cache and /cache if you don't want to mess with custom recoveries and such.

All the other issues, I would treat separately (BT issue, notifications sounds issue).

[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] chrisftlse:
One question : Is it possible to change from S-On to S-Off after the Oreo OTA update ?

I am just back in the game (after a long repair period) and my HTC10 is pure stock / factory.

I am just asking as I see some Oreo complaints and just want to be sure that I can make a U turn if not satisfied with this update

My plan (and as adviced by famous Lee) is to take the OTA and Unlock BL, install TWRP and flash Lee Oreo Rom
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tarima:
Yes, Sunshine (used for S-Off) supports Oreo.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Where did you find these options on the System Updates page?

I have no menu options whatsoever in there, only the checkboxes for updating over WiFi etc.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] daEXk:
Your battery is the culprit. I had the exact same problem and as it turned out my battery capacity had shrunk to about 1450 mAh. The battery was then replaced under warranty.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rolo42:
Not according to the updated downgrade thread (one of them anyway, conflicting information abounds).

I find it odd that many will consider downgrading before considering factory data reset.

Aside from Google moving notification sounds on SOME of its apps to the system app, I don't have any problems whatsoever: BT works great, the phone is fast, snappy, responsive (after clearing caches w/TWRP after everything is updated/installed + AdAway), SafetyNet passes (must use Magisk), FP scanner wakes immediately, everything is stable, etc....great performance I expect from a device with this hardware. I'm not suggesting that no problems exist but I am suggesting that most of the problems reported are either exaggerated or are fixed with a clean install. Finally, give the battery estimates a few days to get more accurate; it's way conservative starting out and use _actual_ SoT before rendering judgment, not estimates.

AOSP-based ROMs are generally snappier and smoother (except for browsing, which is odd) but I haven't found one--Nougat or Oreo--that didn't have BT audio issues with Hangouts that are a show-stopper for me.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tarima:
I always considered those other methods of downgrading risky so I typically won't recommend them. Maybe it's more fool proof now?
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] hecklejekyll:
I had no real problems with nougat but as soon as I updated to Oreo I have a weird Bluetooth issue where my car will mute itself when it plays the next song in Pandora and other music/video apps like vlc, the song starts to play but gets muted while it is playing. Never happened before on any other android phone or version, I have to pause and play from the phone before it will make sound again, even though the song never paused and the phone isn't muted. If I turn the volume up on the car it just mutes after a few more seconds. Super annoying.

[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rolo42:

/system is untouched, so I can just unroot, flash stock recovery, and accept OTA
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] uvt_novice:
I might be wrong, but I recall I saw on Leedroid ROM forum that there is no way going back to Nougat firmware (even though for S-Off) after Oreo update due to a huge change in partitions. I am currently running Oreo ROM (Leedroid) for about a couple of weeks. Surely, ROM performance is very good, but again yes, I am very disappointed with battery life and Car BT Media information missing. I already tried to RUN Nougat with Oreo firmware - everything works, but not FP scanner.

I may try to roll the firmware back this evening. Should it be successful, I can let others know.

wifi connection (IP) problem

Guys, please help me out.

I got my (used) HTC 10 just 2 days ago, I am coming from a Nexus 5x (Oreo 8.1.0 Stock)

My HTC is Oreo 8.0 with 3.16

My home wifi connection is WPA2-PSK using a ZTEF688 router/ONT.

Connecting to wifi is no problem as long as I do not turn the phone to "airplane mode" when I go to sleep.

Next morning I wake up, I turn off "airplane mode" wifi connects, and I walk to our living room where the ZTE wifi ONT is.

After a while wifi disconnects and my phone switches to 4G mobile data. When I check the WIFI status I can see it tries to connect to my home wifi network and is stuck at "IP config" or "Obtaining IP".

All other phones, tablets, etc. are connected fine at the time of the problem, so it is my HTC that is suffering for some unknown and most annoying reason.

I can only get connected to WIFI again if I turn off and on the ZTE router/ONT. This is very abnormal.

Can you tell me how to fix this? This is nonsense that I can not use my home network wifi when all other gadgets are connected just fine to it. :confused::(

Thanks, I hope you can help a brother out. :cool:
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aM-:
I'm also having same problem. Temporary solution is:

1st. turn off wifi. go to Settings > Wi-Fi > Saved networks > select your wifi & Forget

then go to Backup & reset > Network settings reset > Reset settings > press Reset settings.

try to connect to your wifi & enter password.

I do this method frequently when cannot connect to my wifi.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rolo42:
I had a similar issue with AOSP-based custom ROMs but I do not on stock Oreo (I would lose WiFi connection and would have to toggle airplane mode to get it back).

Are you stock? Maybe post a screencap of your software version information. Did you update the phone yourself or factory data reset it?

Have you cleared Dalvik cache and /cache? (do that in recovery)

As a workaround, in the meantime: stop using airplane mode. ;)
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] blaze73:
Yes, this is stock Oreo - I have bought the phone and it was OTA "upgraded" Oreo 8.0.0 : 3.16.401.2.9.0_g CL 10120001 (build)

[IMG="Oreo"]https://snag.gy/4AhzYn.jpg[/IMG]

Before I got the phone it went through FR, cache was not wiped / phone is not rooted.

Please advise. Thanks :)

PS : I need to use the airplane mode for the night, I am used to it, plus my battery drain is critical / even with airplane mode phone dropped from 100% to 93% overnight.

With my 5x this used to be 1% max 2% - not 7%

@ aM- : Okay, I will try that - doubt that will help, but it does not hurt to try. I am desperate with this stupid bug. :(

Also my clock alarm tone is not working, I have copied a Rise.ogg file to "Notifications" folder and picked it up as Alarm tone and my alarm in the morning is not that, but some

completely other *random?* tone :( :(
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Rolo42:
Ideally, I would RUU the current version, if there's a working one available for your variant; if not, someone said in one of these threads recently that you can clear caches through stock recovery; I would definitely try that since you have a few issues.

I noticed the same thing with the battery drain; I think the stock ROM reads the upper voltages a little bit differently, at least starting out. In other words, 100%->90% is faster than 70%-->60%. I notice my battery estimates have changed since I flashed Oreo--whether that's because of different usage patterns or it's getting more accurate, I don't know. So far, I know I can count on 3h SoT (and I don't use low brightness) plus 1-2 days standby, everything on (BT, WiFi, NFC).

The notification tone settings have changed a bit, with some Google apps being relegated to the system rather than per-app, with one consequence being that you may think you're changing a notification sound for a specific app but really you're changing the system-wide default notification sound.

Are you using the htc alarm clock? That one is alarm- and app-specific. If you're using tones stored elsewhere, check permissions. If you're using a different app, then troubleshoot the app, not the OS.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] uvt_novice:
Try to reboot both, router and phone. But router for sure. See if connection persists after going airplane.

Not sure why do you put in airplane mode, just turn off wi-fi and mobile data for the night.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] blaze73:
Well, I have got this phone as "used" and if was FRed before I got it, so its all "clean". Cache was not deleted from recovery, this is unrooted phone.

My battery is acting up a little, now I am on 58% with 1h15m SOT. This is my 2nd charge cycle so I am hoping the system will "settle down" a little, this is a new setup.

I have BT,WIFI,4G and NFC constantly ON. At night I always switch phone to "airplane" mode to save energy, and its a good habit I do not get disturbed etc :)

With the wifi issue I have now modified the home network wifi settings to "STATIC IP" from DHCP as it was always seemed to get stuck at "IP config" or "Obtaining IP". Now I have fixed the 192.168.1.9 IP for the HTC 10 also in my ZTE router with DHCP binding.

So far I have not been disconnected. We will see. Today when I came home the phone was dropping connection like mad so I had to toy around with this. Hope this will fix it.....

Notification sounds : no matter what I did the default notification sound was always a strange "36" tone.

What I set for gmail notification sound simply did overwrite all. Now I have downloaded "NotifierPro" and set up sounds and vibrating for each app using this 3rd party app. We will see how it works.

Strange enough the "default" tone from gmail was still being used in the background when a notification sound was played, so now I have set default tone to "None" so the custom sound via "NotifierPro" would be the only one being played.

Whatsapp, Viber, Messenger seems to work so far with the custom sounds. :)

Do you guys think HTC would release a patch, fix for this 3.16 Oreo ? OTA I mean..... thanks.... :rolleyes:
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] kukumalu255:
I wonder how Google is not FULL of these complaints. From my point of view all HTC phones haves this exact issue. My HTC10, as well my brother's and friend's ones had the same problem. It becomes so bad that you can't unplug the charger for more than few seconds. And after it powers down itself - good luck trying to turn it on. It may take 20 or more attempts..

Unfortunately no software update can fix that cause it's the faulty battery. I've had mine replaced by warranty, so I can say I was lucky. But since I guess ALL latest HTC phones have this problem (At least i can say for sure that MTC M7 and M8 had the same problem) it's a major problem for their new waterproof phones, since i doub't they will stay waterproof after warranty.
[HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aletto:
Whenever I make a voice call in WhatsApp, Signal or Skype Lite, and then try to listen to something else, be it music or a Youtube video or whatever else, the second thing will sound really low quality and terrible. This didn't happen on 6.0 (that's how I got the phone) and having that work is crucial for me.

I would be extremely grateful if someone could test this out or perhaps even help me fix this issue. Thank you.

If you happen to know whether this happens on Oreo based custom roms, LineageOS in particular, please tell me about it. I'd rather not unlock the phone for now but this may push me to do so.
