Okay, just tested my Outlook notifications and they're working. Now I'll do a TiBu backup of everything, delete Outlook, and test notifications after restoring. Will advise in a little bit.

Update: [MENTION=5829575]rootnooby[/MENTION] - I tried it and did find a couple things quirky. If I restored the app from TiBu and tested notifications without first opening the Outlook app after restore, I didn't get notifications. The first time I tried it, I opened the app first and sent myself an email from within the app. That didn't produce any notification sound, but I did get an icon in the status bar up top. Then I opened settings and just opened the notification options (didn't change or select anything) then backed out. Resent myself an email and I got the sound, notification badge on the app icon, and the notification in the status bar. For another test, I reinstalled the app, opened it, then sent myself a message from my PC and everything worked like it should.

One last thing for you to check, are your notifications sent to only go off on receipt of emails from Focused inbox or for all emails?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] rootnooby:
Definitely focused inbox only. Also can confirm I had the problem with the app LinkedIn as well.

Found this article. A bit over my head but may make sense to you.

That seems like way too much. Thankfully we have a lot of storage.

Did you ever find a way to get rid of the red screen on reboot?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] sting12345:
Yeah I do and it doesn't make a bit of difference to change the color of the outer shell LOL. You are pathetic, every single point you made is full of falsities. NO nearly ALL of the pathetic 88k phones sold do not have the intent on putting a custom ROM on it. That is dead wrong and you know it or else you live in lala land. 450 dollars for something that doesn't work out of the box is crap no matter what warped logic you try to justify your terrible purchase and loss of money. The fact that you said "whatever number you choose to believe? You sound like Donald Trump and fake news!' LOL. The wall street conference call have cited a number closer to 100k total and these are TRUE numbers, not your fantasy ones. I have moved on, tried it two different times and it's good looking nice hardware except the antenna's but the support and the software integration is crap, pure crap. I moved on to a OP5T and i have oreo working perfectly, how about that? I also have a year old nokia 6 with a 425 SD and 3 gigs of ram running OREO and it's perfect, never a single problem and battery lasts forever. Oh and both phones have feb. security patches too.

You need to get over the fact you took a chance and it didn't work out. Like I've said before, there will not be a ph2.......EVER. Check out their financials, they are basically out of money now and no new angels are coming in to risk their venture capital on a pathetic failed attempt that even a 199.99 nokia from last year can top.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] NaterTots:
I think system uses that much storage because you essentially have 2 complete system images due to Treble.

At least that's my understanding, I could be wrong.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] navimpact:
I think you're right; however, I just checked a Google Pixel XL, which also uses the dual system images, and it uses 7.4GB.

Any bets on when the PH-2 is launched this guy won't come back to eat crow?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] rignfool:
He can't stand to lose an argument he's had in his mind over and over and always wins
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Jank4AU:
Maybe he's tied in to Wall Street but I cant find any articles detailing their financials or saying they're bankrupt or going out of business.

Amazon backed them and they have more money than God. Don't think I've heard of them pulling out yet.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] rignfool:
Not directed at you...

If you get into a "game" like manufacturing hardware... And don't straight copy someone else... You're gonna have bumps in the road... These bumps are smoothed out by having enough money to take a chance... And learn...

Look at OPO... They didn't sell like hotcakes their first run out... But now they are doing fine... Even outside of the tech circle...

If Essential didn't have the backing to design their own hardware... And take the lumps that go with it... I am pretty sure we would have seen a re-branded BLU handset or similar...

Or they would have gotten into the game at a mid/low end price point... But they didn't...

It's just people with NO knowledge of how manufacturing and marketing work saying Essential is done...

I might be wrong... But then all the articles saying how they are backed by this billion dollar business and that billion dollar business are just blowing smoke...

Truly it remains to be seen...
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Jank4AU:
On the flip side, however, I have seen it reported they are already working on a second iteration of their phone. I find that much more plausible.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] rignfool:
That can't be...

[MENTION=8875189]sting12345[/MENTION]

My authority on what's going on at Essential says they've gone belly up.../s

Where are your sources... I call BS /s

I upgraded to Oreo 8.1 beta, and everything seemed to work great for the first day and a half, but now Android Messeges has basically stopped working. I can send one message and then everything after that just gets stuck in "Sending..." until I reboot. Once it seemed like a force stop of Messeges got it going again, but that doesn't even seem to work now.

Any ideas? Anybody else seeing this?

WhatsApp Video Calling Voice Issue

I am in Canada on Koodo network. After getting OREO 8.1 beta OTA, turns out to be Caller on WhatsApp VIDEO Conf. can't hear the voice at all or there is alot of echo however I can hear the voice clearly. On the another hand WhatsApp Voice Call works OK however not same as the original Nougat platform had. Any help would be much appreciated. Wife is quite upset and wants me to roll back the OS.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] VennligFiende:
I honestly don't give crap whether they go up or down. I can tell you I have been in this industry for a long time and it seem that you don't really get what a MVP is, let alone minimum marketable feature set. I recommend you read the book The Lean Startup from Eric Ries to start with. Then perhaps you can talk about your experience as a product owner. Then perhaps we can verify the sources you claim to have.

I find interesting how venomous your comments are.

This is not a life and death situation . It is just a company that may or may not succeed. In the end who cares? There are plenty of options.

As it was posted by someone else, several companies did not do too well on rev 1 and did much better later on. Rev 1 is more a learning vehicle. I think this is one of the reasons to why it was launched US only to start with.

I doubt investors expect return overnight. If that was the case, Uber would be out of business. Look at their financials. They still bleed money but every quarter less so.

Incidentally, I did not invest in Essential not do I care. As I said, if you can show us your sources and your experience as a product owner, it would make you a tad credible.

Otherwise you are just spinning your own opinion with questionable facts. You are entitled to your own opinion but if you claim sources and facts, expose them. Otherwise, clarify that those are opinions.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] rignfool:
I'm not here to be your friend... I will never understand why the butthurt seem to feel that way... I am here to learn... and work with the hardware that I bought... You're pissed... Get over it

But watching people speculate about stuff they have no idea how it all works... Is just silly... And deserves to be called out...

If you don't wanna see my "venemous" comments... Don't give me ammunition... Simple fact...
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] VennligFiende:
I am not looking for friendship... To be pissed I would need to have an interest on Essential's future which I don't. You are entitled to your venomous comments under the First Amendment. I just find strange that level of venom unless someone has an agenda behind them. However, I may incorrectly assumed as such or perhaps not.

I agree with your point about speculation. As it is normal in the tech industry a lot is speculation and hearsay and BS. What I don't see are any facts coming from you that can be verified about Essential's financials.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] canned_polar_bear:
stop feeding the trolls please.
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] dhorgas:
At the posters bickering over Essential's viability as a company - could you please move your discussion to another thread, not related to the beta? You are way off topic.

On the topic of beta, it looks like Essential may be waiting until their next AMA to push out an update, rolling in the March patch. I hope this isn't how they expect to conduct the rest of the beta because each patch introduces potential new issues so you're debugging a moving target. It could also push us into May for official release.

Anyone else experiencing random resets with the 8.1 beta? Sometimes I go several days with no issues sometimes it resets a couple times per day. I think I need to do a factory reset now ( I have upgraded from Nougat with all 3 betas with no reset).

Got the phone two weeks ago. Haven't had a single reboot.

Also wasn't deep sleeping at all, so trying ElementalX now. Even then, battery life was pretty good.

Yes. It was released about a month ago.

I'm hoping for an update this week. ?
[Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion] Jank4AU:
As far as I can tell, if they fix the battery drain which seems to be kernel related, 8.1 is almost release ready.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] fati008:
Hello All,

I have bought last days a galaxy note 8 snapdragon version, but i have seen a bug (maybe is not a bug) that when using AOD enabled with infinity effect enabled (blue theme) screen on aod stays blue with stars on top and after one minute it goes completely black and shows stars and clock only, that i love it... but when phone is charging and aod enabled, the infiniy effect on aod stays always blue on top of the screen and not black with stars only. Well im wondering if is there a possibility of screen burn from static blue color for all over the night if phone stays all night in charge?

Please Note 8 USERS check and reply if you have the same problem.

Dont ask me to turn off infinity wallpaper or aod bcs i like it and i want to use it, also i am all day out so i must charge the phone over night.

Pic attached.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] xda_rosh:
If you do this regularly, yes it will burn the screen. Your top part the screen will be slightly greener (yellow-red) by burning the blue rapidly.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] winol:
I do not think it will damage the screen, to the naked eye it looks static, but AOD does shift pixels, to avoid this
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] fati008:
[MENTION=4155210]xda_rosh[/MENTION] is there any way to fix it?

[MENTION=2297902]winol[/MENTION] but why it is black in normal use and blue when charging?

Anyone with Note 8 if have the same problem?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] xda_rosh:
Having the AOD numbers ON is not a problem as they move around a bit. But blue gradient definitely will ruin you display. I can guarantee that. My first Note 8 came one side little brighter (blue-white). I purposely made a blue gradient and left the screen on at high brightness a couple of night. It made the screen bit even by burning that side a bit.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] fati008:
The strange thing is that even the samsung agents that i spoke knew nothing about this.

Is very anoying that we cant use AOD because colored theme applied to AOD will burn the screen

I have a Zenpad 8.0 purchased for my wife who has rarely used it, she tried to log in to it recently but forgot the login details, so i factory reset it, it's now come up with a message when trying to sign in "Unable to sign in to device due to a unknown error, please wait 24 hours" I have left it for a week switched off but still cannot log in.

[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcolp:
Guys, my cell phone is a Galaxy Grand Prime, model SM-G530T1 MetroPCS, and the only thing I'm trying to do is change the language of the cell phone (add the Portuguese language). I searched several ways, some that change only the language of the applications, but not the whole system. I also tried to root several times on the handset and none of the times worked, even had to do a hard reset on the device because of an error during a root attempt.

Could someone help me with this? I just want to add the Portuguese language to the device.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sugar mishra:
I think it can be added when uh format ur device and at the time of setting up it will ask uh to select language then uh select urs
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tasnim_tamim:
Have you checked Language And Input option in settings? You can change your Language from there.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcolp:
I've looked at the settings, but this model does not have the Portuguese language in the settings. So I tried to do the root, but it seems that this particular model is quite complicated to do the root, or at least I still have not succeeded.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tasnim_tamim:
Still here? I've found a way to do it. Although I have not tested it myself as I have a custom ROM and it has Portuguese language already installed. So download a app called 'Set Locale and Language' app from play store and try to follow along with the instructions that the app gives you. I checked it and there's a lot of variant of the language like Brazil and more. App works without root through adb (needs PC with adb installed) and with Root which will work even better.

Good luck ;)
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gorunjinian:
Hey, look,

If you want to root, just use Magisk Zip file and everything should go fine.

Magisk rooting zip files works perfectly.

Don't use superSU zip files, sometimes they crash.

So just flash Magisk rooting zip file.

And if you want, just tell me and i will give you my drive link for a magisk zip file

Well it's time for a new phone, wife wants one and as much as I love my current phone I want something with more developer support. While I do appreciate all the work the few people have been doing for the lg stylo 3 plus, I just eant something that will have more people working on custom roms and stuff. My wife just has a crappy 50 dollar phone and I have, as stated, the lg stylo 3 plus. We are on the Metro network so as you all know as long as the phones unlocked I can use it with Metro sim card.

So after that spew of crap, what phones does everyone recommend? I'm in no rush so if there is a newer phone coming out later this year feel free to recommend it as I would like to grab a newer model, but I'm open to all suggestions.
