I have the HM2 and I haven't experienced any issues with notifications, using Whatsapp, Telegram or whatever.
[Honor Magic 2 Questions & Answers] danster84:
Thanks very much for your reply! Great, glad to hear so. Will go for it than.
[Honor Magic 2 Questions & Answers] thepipemaster:
I have had a different experience unfortunately. Some apps only seem to sync and receive new notifications when I open them.

I've tried adding the problematic apps to "unrestricted data access" (despite it saying this should not effect notifications) to no avail.

Hope someone else has a solution!
[Honor Magic 2 Questions & Answers] danster84:
That's exactly what I was afraid of, I also know this from my previous Huawei Mates.. well I have placed the order now already for it.. so I guess I will have to see.
[Honor Magic 2 Questions & Answers] karamba:
Go to settings->apps->apps->WhatsApp(for example)->power usage details->app launch.

Change to manual and enable all. I think you can then switch it back to automatic.
[Honor Magic 2 Questions & Answers] royrosenfeld:
These problems usually originate with power consumption settings and launch settings, if you let it run in the background and launch itself, it should work perfectly.

In any way I use Whatsapp regularly and it seems working fine with the default settings I had when installed.
[Honor Magic 2 Questions & Answers] Leo_83:
This

And this

Most people that are having issues with notifications are totally unaware of the the aggressive battery saver on Huawei devices. You need to manually allow apps to run in the background and not be killed by the battery saver. Unfortunately the settings are but hidden and some time there are more than one option to were to do so.

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] viekowy:
Hello to everyone

I've recently become an owner of a brand new HTC U11, mostly for it's playback capabilities. I even got new earbuds JBL reflect aware, but I'm still struggling with major, very known issue, lack of sufficient volume steps. I was trying to achieve this with some of the applications, but all the solutions were unsatisfying or were even worse, distorting the output sound. Finally I got myself to this forum and I've found, that there are ways to achieve this by adding a proper entry into the build.prop file.

I tried this, but final result also turned out to be unsatisfying. Why is that? Because when I add entry to build.prop, after reboot of the device, the amount of volume steps increases but something strange happens. Let's say I set it to be 30 steps. What it actually turns out is, that starting with a zero volume level, when I increase volume it reaches the highest possible at 15th step, then at the 16th step the sound gets significantly quieter and again increases to the maximum, when I reach the final 30th step.

Similar situation takes place, when I set the amount of steps to 50. Only this time those 50 steps become divided into the first casual 15 and another 35 additional steps, where at the beginning sound also gets quieter to reach its maximum at 35th step, which is actually the last 50th.

The entry looks like that: "ro.config.media_vol_steps=30"

It seems like it doesn't override the default setting, what is supposed to do from what I read.

I also tried other way. I found that decompilation of framework.jar file allows to modify AudioService.smali, to achieve the same result.

But this is demanding some serious knowledge, and I'm a total newbie to this, so I achieved nothing. Especially, that I couldn't find a proper framework.jar file, since it is probably in the different location, then described and probably compiled into the *.oat file.

If there's a way to solve my problem by editing the biuld.prop file or other *.prop files? I'd rather do it this way. If not, I think I will be persistent to achieve my goal, hopefully with some help. : ) Mostly because I find it really disturbing not getting possible a proper volume level over the remote control in the headphones, and getting it manually through some apps, equalizers is not what I meant by obtaining new headphones.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] bick:
Hi viekowy

I understand your frustration totally as I have gone down the same road.

The build.prop thing works on AOSP ROMs, but not HTC Sense based ROMS.

I don't believe there is a solution, except I have found that the POWERAMP Player app has an option to increase volume steps that actually works on HTC Sense ROMs!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.maxmpz.audioplayer

USB Audio Player also has volume steps option, but it doesn't work on HTC Sense ROMs.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.extreamsd.usbaudioplayerpro

So I've stuck with Poweramp Player as it plays 24bit flacs and is a fully featured HD Audio player.

I would like to know how the programmers of Poweramp Player overcome this problem as I have other players that would benefit from 50+ volume steps.

I use Ainur Audio mod as it makes a vast improvement on sound-staging and fidelity. (I don't use Viper etc).

Give it a try and let us know how you get on.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theuving:
I did the following

1. Downgraded to V30b-EUR-XXX with LGUP. Went smooth.

2. Rooted phone sucessfully with kingroot.

3. Got a shell with "adb shell"

4. "su"

5. Filled the recovery-partition with zeros from /dev/zero with dd

6. Installed twrp3.2.3-0 with dd on recovery-partition

When I boot into Marshmallow, all is fine. When I boot into recovery, I'm informed about a necessary factory reset. I say "Yes" both times, then the LG Logo and some tiny text is displayed and afterwards the screen goes dark. The LED is blinking blue and red; the only way out of this is to remove the battery.

If I do a factory reset from within marshmallow, the result is the same.

What can I do now? Should I flash a stock recovery with dd? But where to get it? Or should I flash an older version of twrp?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NetDog75:
Hello,

Last time when I downgraded, I also rooted with KingRoot, but I installed the "Flashify" full version, ( on the ROM of course ) and I flashed the twrp with the flashify as "recovery". This is working.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theuving:
Excuse me, but I'm not able to decipher that. What is flashify? What means "on the ROM of course"? Can you give more information please.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NetDog75:
- flashify is an application.

- on the ROM = when the phone booted and the operation system is working, you can use your phone... example for phone calls. As you wrote: "boot into Marshmallow"

So, downgrade again, and boot into Marshmallow, use the kingroot, than install the flashify application. You can flash the twrp with the mentioned Flashify application, than reboot to recovery.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theuving:
Don't had to downgrade, because I was in V30b. Got root, installed flashify and flashed twrp - the first time 3.2.3, then 2.8.0. Same result as before. :(

From what version of android did you install what version of twrp?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NetDog75:
Hi,

I use the twrp3.2.3 and no problem.

I'm not expert, I just can recommend some steps...

Maybe good idea to flash again the stock ROM. You can find here on the forum many step by step guide for this. ( tools and steps )

It seems your phone recovery partition is not OK....

I have no more idea...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcdw:
[MENTION=4891351]theuving[/MENTION], why did you decide to zero out the recovery partition? I don't know but that may be part of the problem. Since you were connected via adb was it not possible to use fastboot? Flashing the recovery via that should(?) have also worked.

If the recovery partition is messed up you might have to start over. Not sure though as I haven't experienced that problem.

ZTE Axon 7 A2017U, /e/ v0.1 ROM, microG (NoGapps), Multiboot, XDA Legacy
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theuving:
It's the same partition where I flashed twrp, so the zeros are already overwritten with something else ...

Seriously: Zeroing the partition before writing to it was mentioned in a thread about the installation of a "bumped" recovery.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theuving:
OK, that is the version I used also. What android version was installed when you flashed the recovery? Mine is stock V30b.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NetDog75:
Hi,

I'm not sure, because I changed to 8.1 (oreo).

Maybe V30N.....
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yahya69:
I am having the same problem. There is no "unlock bootloader" in the developer options, and adb reboot bootloader just starts into android again. I might have to reflash the stock firmware, but nowhere in the install instructions for twrp does it say that you first have to unlock the bootloader, and nowhere does it even mention that there might not be such an option. This is genuinely strange.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] xcom923:
OK, I've read a bunch of these threads but I'd Like to get everyone who is knowlegeable about this together because I though I was doing everything right.

First off I am using Dutty's newest ROM that is supposed to have all the voice command mods "out of the box"

Second I have a sony ericsson HBH-DS980, shameless promo I know but, this is an awsome headset I love it and would recommend it to anyone (all I need is this problem fixed)

OK, for the most part everything was working fine at first. I paired everything and started using voice command with all my music, and random system info (battery level, date and time etc....) but then I wanted to start calling people from it and it seemed to work just fine. I'd say who I wanted to call it would ask for confermation then it would start to dial...then the wierd steps in. my headset then looses stereo connection (usually I would have it in stereo mode) so I'm looking at the handset (it takes a couple seconds to "catch up") and it says everything is fine untill the call gets picked up then it drops the ericsson completely it no longer has it as a stereo bt or even a hands-free mic. And to top things off the call just stops so I can't fix anything.

Another thing I've noticed is after something like this or even looking up a contact via voice for some reason wm and my bt don't like to "play nice" I constantly get disconnects and after a while Voice command stops hearing me through my mic (I know it's not the mic since if I reboot and repeat it works just fine) but it will work if I use it from the handset.

I don't reeally know what's going on but I do run S2U2 very often and I was just on another thread that was saying his problem was S2U2 and I want to know if anyone else has found that was the issue. Hell I'd just be happy to know I'm not alone. If anyone would like to offer help that would be great too.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] xcom923:
OK, here is version 2 of the explination:

OK I paired my BT (I did this twice as a stereo bt and a regular handsfree) and made a call via voice command (it hears me fine and dials) after a couple seconds my BT gives the disconnect sound. After that the call ends. Not only that but my phone bars go to 0 for a split second and I get a message saying that my phone couldn't connect to my wireless internet. (most likely due to the "0 bar" issue)

After this whole thing I attempt to call (or do anything) via Voice command and it won't understand a word I say through the mic. Even rebooting doesn't solve this issue. I have to remove the bt from my list and re-pair it.

_________________________________________________________

it looks like when VC errors it takes my entire phone with it. Has anyone else had this issue. and BTW it doesn't seem to be related to S2U2 like I though in my last post since it was disabled
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bigboyhf:
Are you talking about MS Voice Command or Cyberon Voice dialer??
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] exoduzy2k:
Can you try with another BT? Just to verify that's not the bluetooth issue.

I have a similar issue with my Jawbone BT and the problem is with my BT . I have a logitech BT and it doesn't give me any problem.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] little pink:
Are u using s2u2 v0.99 or v1.0?

If you want (BT handfree + s2u2 + voice commander) all three together, you may need to give up the new version and install back the v0.98.

It works for me on my Elf powered by Cloudyfa's shadoW 2.1 TE

Hope it helps.

Cheers

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] pepes51:
Yes, you are. Just out of curiosity why did you do that though? It's a soak test. Like all soak test it will be plagued with bugs for the first couple of months or more. You should have flashed the TWRP flashable zip.

Yes, a few have managed to unlock bootloader on soak test amd then flashed magisk and it was rooted sucessfully. No need of elemental x kernel like we needed on stock nougat.

It would be better if you check out the soak test thread as this question has been asked a couple of times and also there will be more questions which might come to your mind and have answerd there already

[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] User422:
Hey guys and girls.

Does anyone have experience with Funkyhuawei with a phone that Huawei didn't give the bootloader unlock code to?

Preferably a Mate 20 Pro of course.

I'm thinking about giving it a try but I would obviously have no TWRP and no Magisk.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] leony74:
I got my phone from funkyhuawei, 8gb 256 gig model. They say they cant provide the boot loader unlock code as it is locked from Huawei. At this moment in time it is not possible to unlock it.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] jhs39:
I used FunkyHuawei for updates for my P20 Pro with a locked bootloader since OTA updates never seemed to arrive and the service works well. Since they only have build 122 currently for the International Mate 20 Pro which I am already on I haven't tried it with the Mate 20 Pro yet.

Bootloader unlocking codes and rebranding aren't going to be offered for this phone and the rooted Mate 20 Pro phones they were selling apparently lose root the first time you update the OS so that was a complete waste of money.

I'm happy with the update part of their service but they don't respond to emails--ever. The best way to get FunkyHuawei updates is via Twitter.

I ordered an accessories bundle from them for the Mate 20 Pro but haven't received anything so far including anything to indicate that my order was ever received, processed or shipped (it's been a week) so the jury is still out on their store. The order was paid for with PayPal so I know they did get my money.

It seems like FunkyHuawei might be a one man operation.
[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] User422:
I didn't know that they do sell physical products like a pre rooted device.

However, I did get a very minimalistic reply to my support request.

Since I don't know the service and the price of the root service for one phone is quite high, I don't want to risk spending money for nothing.
