Notification Problems in Android 9.0

I don't know whether this is the correct forum, but I am having problems with repeating notifications that worked perfectly well in 8.0 before the update.

I use an app "Prof Reminder or Missed Call Reminder" that allows repeating notifications with a specified notification sound and repeat period.

With this app, I have been unable to get repeat notifications with WhatsApp, the first comes through, but then after nothing (it seems the signal is dismissed).

When using BlueMail (email app) repeat notifications work perfectly.

Have checked app the settings, permissions etc., and everything looks correct, been through it so many times and double checked everything.

Cannot understand why one app works perfectly, yet another will not work!

Would appreciate any advice or experience, if this is the wrong forum please let me know.

Were are the Notification being stored since Pie?

It looks like to me they are in the system and not reachable unless rooted. Since Pie, I've lost needed sounds that no longer are available.

Is there a way to add back some of the lost sounds that existed prior to Pie?

Notifications for indiviual apps do not sound. I have an app sound for messages but it does not work nor do anyother app sounds work even the Settings Sound does not sound for any app that is requestiing an individual sound. Is this just mine or are others having the same problem???
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] be-each:
My notification sound is reset to zero about every day or other day since the upgrade to Pie (no bluetooth involved). No idea what causes this but I am pretty sure it's up to Samsung to fix.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers] kesavan2000in:
It's occurring on Pie based ROM's. Verified in LineageOS 16 & crDroid 5.4. When connected to Bluetooth , phone is not ringing in speaker but vibrates. So you'll miss calls if you not wearing the Bluetooth headset.

Reported at https://github.com/crdroidandroid/android_frameworks_base/issues/245 , but they mentioned this needs to fixed by core team.

Since iFonz and iPhone themes started making there way onto our ppc's , I have tried to find a dialer to go along with the overall look. But everyone I try has the same bug (locking up between status and keypad) as the other, if not more. So I made a skin for one of the most stable dialers I have found. Smartdial works, 911 works. Everthing works. My skin doesn't compare to the brilliant dialpads like Nargz or Dcx but I believe it's pretty decent. It will hold me over until one of them get the kinks worked out anyway. But thanks to "Jimm98y" for creating the original dialer, and thanks also to "kidnamedalbert" for creating the .cab file and making the skin easy to install. I havent had much time to see if there are any flaws in the skin, but if you notice any , post it and I'll have it fixed by the next day with a updated version posted. Also these skins are fully customizable. So if you have a request for a special background of any kind, any certain button design or button layout, anything at all , let me know and I'll try to get it to you.

Instructions are easy,

*First Install the .cab found in the "Install First" folder.

*Second Install the .cab found in the "Install Second folder.

Ok, after you install the first cab, it will tell you to restart your device. Hit cancell, DO NOT restart yet. Then go install the second cab. THEN DO A SOFT RESET.WILL NOT SHOW UP UNTIL AFTER RESET! Thats why its easier to cancell the first reset and just do one after both cabs are installed. Or do a reset after each cab instillation . This should fix you alls problem of it not showing up .Let me know , & sorry I didnt specify this earlier.

GSM/CDMA

Ive used this for around a month now on my CDMA ALLTEL VOGUE/TOUCH. Every feature works. Ive not had one problem since installation. However, this dialer was originally for gsm. There are reports of it working on both. We'll know when the feedback piles up. But Im confident it will work on both, and with the new instructions, there wont be any more trouble.

Features:

Im trying my best to work some more in. Smartdial works on my phone so ill have to see which ones it doesn't on then try to patch it up. The Smartdial option should be located under the menu option while on the keypad. Im working to add video call and a few more features.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] alabij:
Some pics would be nice!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Lycox:
Any screenshots?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] superflysocal:
Nice work!!

However, be careful when you say 911 works. It depends for what kind of phone you are talking about. If it is a GSM phone, then probably, but I doubt if 911 would work with a CDMA phone. If I am not mistaken, Jimmy98 dialers are based on GSM phone, so you will have issues with CDMA phones like Sprint.

With that said, any chance you can post the raw graphics files used, maybe in png's or other graphic file format?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TheChampJT:
You made this dialer????
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TweakMan:
CDMA/GSM

Actually to my surprise its working perfect on my CDMA Touch Vogue. I also recieved a PM saying its working on a GSM phone as well. Hopefully it stays that way. One dialer for GSM and CDMA, I hope. But Ive used it on mine now for a month with no flaws yet. I would love to know what everyone thinkds though. Custom requests welcome. From Spiderman to Lillies!

Skin

I made the skin. The wonderful dialer was made by Jimm98y.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oelapoel:
where can I get smartdial feature for this dialer?

If its included, then its not working on my XDA IIs...

Cheers

EDIT: Smart dial works. I just didnt know that after pressing the numbers, you have to press "Hide Keypad" to view the filtered contacts...

Sorry about that...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kidnamedAlbert:
so the cab i made worked?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rock4mayo:
can you make it with video call working??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rwcozens:
Just about to post the same question. Great cab
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] agentmikeyd:
anyone got it working on a sprint touch ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] superflysocal:
What carrier are you on? I am pretty sure Jimmy98y dialer was written for GSM, so even though things seems to be working now, you will probably run into problems in the near future. How do you know 911 is working, btw? If you are on Sprint, do this simple test: Pull up the dialpad and type ##data# (or ##3282#), does the data provisioning screen of EPST come up? If not then it is not written for CDMA.

On the other hand...nice work on the graphics. can't wait for you topost or send the graphics files.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] coney718:
I installed this on my CDMA Touch. Its working but it doesn't look like the screen shots. My "talk" and "End" buttons are not red and green. and I have no Earth background

Smartdial

Theres an option to turn smartdial on on the menu on my vogue. Theres also som reports of it working on GSM devices, but Im unable to test this.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wearefree:
Unfortunately it's not working well on my tmobile wing with open touch v3 lite rom, mostly having trouble with Jimm98y's dialer itself. The smart dial sorta works after hiding keyboard, but I can't get it to re-dial the last number (it's important because lot of the times I'm simply returning a call), nor can I access my contacts from the dialpad screen. It behaves very similar to the other iphone dialer but I didn't get to a point of freezing yet. Now I'm back to the old touch dialer that came with the rom.

However I do see that the call status screen is very similar to the touch dialer. Is it possible that I only use that portion of the graphics? It's not too difficult to customize the dial pad using tdial but I could never get the status screen to look right. If you could share your graphics, or simply make a skin pack for touch dialer then it'll be great!

Thank you for the hard work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TweakMan:
Stability

I choose this dialer because its so stable. Even if you by chance loose a feature, in my opinion its worth the stability. Ive used it for a month now and not had 1 dialer related lockup or problem. In my opinion its worth it. Hopefully you enjoy. Any custom requests still welcome, just post it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TweakMan:
YES

If your having a problem with this dialer itself, I can try to create the skin for you dialer of choice, Stock or Not. Just post all the original graphic files on here and PM me and tell the page and post number there on. I can do it fairly quick. 24-48 hours.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wearefree:
I don't have the original pictures of the touch dialer I'm using, but it's the same as people discussed in this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=372098

I could care less about the earth background (too !phony) but I do like the red end button and green talk button on the status screen in your skin and the texture of those buttons. And if possible could you use these attachments as backgrounds? I use this as my wallpaper for today and for S2U2 and it'll be very nice to go with these.

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bvinson:
I tried this on my Sprint Touch, and this is exactly what I've been looking for. However, I had to uninstall it for one particular reason. For some reason when using this dialer, the data connection will not go idle. In other words, once the dialer is installed, if I check an email the data connection stays active until I disconnect it. I've tested it, and once uninstalled everything worked as expected again. I hope this problem gets fixed, as I was really getting used to this nice dialer interface.

Work on Treo 700W?

I just installed the 2 cab files and did a soft reset--per the directions--after the second cab file was installed, but it does not appear to be working. When I pull up the dialer, it's the standard dialer I had before. I've tried an addition soft reset but nothing's changed. I've got a Treo 700w running WM5...am I missing something? Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] acorso:
CDMA????

I installed this dialer on my Verizon XV 6800, DCD ROM 3.2.0, Radio 3.42.02.

I look very nice, great response, but it does break function for CDMA.

Has anyone been able to install on CDMA without breaking function?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] LoriInWa:
I am a nargz idialer lover!! BUT, there are bugs and so I am very happy that you have worked out another similar dialer! I just loaded it onto my Sprint Touch and will report any issues.

Thanks!!:)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] SashET:
Hi All,

I have been racking my brain trying to get this to work on my phone, in fact its not only this dialer that doesn't work on my phone but many iphone type skins I've tried.

Every time I load one of these, I get what appears to look like a distorted version of it, like it only shows up as a miniture version of the skin on the top left hand corner of the screen (approx 1/4 of the screen) and the rest of the screen has fuzzy lines through it or one of the many buttons from the skin. It's totally un-usable.

I have an imate 9502 Ultimate with the latest 1.77 ROM.

Can anyone explain what's going on? I'm getting desperate to fix this issue.

Cheers

Sash

Is it QVGA or VGA? Doesn't say in the first post and don't want to have a mishap.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] GadgetFreak:
You're getting that reult because this is a QVGA dialer, and I'm presuming you have a VGA phone.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] SashET:
Hi,

Yes, its a VGA phone (640x480).

I have tried downloading other dialers that say that they are VGA and the same thing happens.

Can someone post a link of an iphone type dialer I should try to see if it would work.

Many thanks for the reply.

Cheers

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] SashET:
Anyone?

I'd love to have an iPhone looking dialer on my phone.

Someone must know of a VGA version iPhone Dialer. Surely.

Hi.

I've got LG V30 and an app, that... cannot be added to my Do Not Disturb exception list. It just isn't listed there (I open the apps excluded from DND and this one is not there to be toggled).

Can I add this app to the exception list with adb command? Tried to google it, but couldn't find any solutions...

Thanks for your help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] testwe4:
Hi, so I recently changed my cracked touchscreen to an 3rd party one and 3 months have passed (warranty went out) and the phone sometimes doesn't want to respond to touch. Sometimes I fix it by rebooting the phone by holding power button for 8 seconds, other times I just knock the screen and it fixes right up. But today, neither a reboot or a knock on the screen would help, I have tried removing SIM and SD card, putting Android in Safe mode, but no success. Should I put back my original cracked screen back, or should I move on ? If so, the phone was IP68 water resistant and the screen still has that waterproof seal, which is a pain in the a## to remove. If I try to use heat to remove it, I'm risking to damage the rubbin cable. :( Help will be really appreciated ! :)

Edit : The phone hasn't been touched or moved when the problem occurs.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] JimzFreebies:
Hi all, I'm planning to buy note 9 dual sim but I'm in confusion to buy snapdragon model or Exynos model. I have searched a lot & found that snapdragon version in much faster than exynos. I also noted that rooting & customization stuff is mostly available for Exynos model.

So, which one to buy? I want to root it & flash custom rom in it. Please help.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Jake.S:
Just want to give you a warning not do this if you want to use Samsung pay and Samsung pass. So unlocking bootloader will trigger the safety thing in the knox chip which permanently breaks the Knox chip so apps like Samsung pay, Samsung pass secret folder wont function anymore since they need working Knox chip to work. Also encryption may break aswell since Knox stores the encryption keys I think.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] JimzFreebies:
Yes i know that. Samsung pay is not useful for me as i use other payment methods. So which model should i buy?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] oddbehreif:
You pretty much answered your own question. Most of the community development happens on Exynos, so if you want to flash anything, get an Exynos variant.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] iceepyon:
If you live in the US then you would need to purchase the SnapDragon variant to get LTE/4G reception. As the Exynos variant isn't support for use in the US.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] high_voltage:
It's your choice really. Keep in mind that there are not a lot of ROM/kernels (currently 1 kernel ;) )/specific modifications for the exynos note 9. You won't get a lot out of it, imagine after a year - it will be totally dead in development. What you will get is vastly inferior phone with 30% slower GPU, worse battery life, slower apps loading, slower multitasking, UI frame drops. The sd845 is not somewhat better, it runs circles around the exynos 9810. Yep, I have the exynos note 9. So if you want 3-4 ROMS and 1 kernel currently that will be gone when s10/note 10 comes out - go for the SOC that is more a midrange category for the price of the highend variant.

Will just say that few XDA fellow members got their hands over the both variants, all of them coming prepared for a difference. All of them said the difference is a lot bigger than what they expected, kept the snapdragon and returned the exynos.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] JimzFreebies:
Actually i like customizations & i use many apps which require root. I don't really use Custom Kernels. Only custom roms are my requirement & i modify other stuff in it myself for my personal use[emoji38]

So which one variant u recommend me? And what about s9+ snapdragon?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] high_voltage:
I think it's obvious which one I recommend - the snapdragon 945 note 9. For me it's: midrange phone with root or highend phone without root. It's not equal category that I decide between. Go at anandtech and search for Andrei's articles on 9810 and also there is one from December that directly put exynos note 9 vs sd note 9.

Between s9+ snapdragon and note 9 snapdragon - the note 9, it got a lot bigger battery, a lot better SOC cooling (important for the sd845 especially), s-pen, lower angle on the edges, bigger screen (albeit slightly).

Edit: you would be surprised how good is the spen for diablo 2 when the phone is on the table. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] JimzFreebies:
Thanks for ur recommendation. One last question. I have checked note 9 forum here and found that snapdragon variant doesn't have any custom rom with it. But exynos has couple of custom roms that are active.

I know snapdragon is faster n better than exunos but it has no custom rom as compared to exynos variant. So much confusion in buying[emoji26]

Hey guys,

After I broke my display a few weeks ago i bought a replacement screen + digitizer and repaired it. I also changed the battery. Everything worked fine afterwards.

Mobile connection, gps, speaker, camera, fingerprint reader, everything. Just the wifi doesnt seem to get a propper signal.

I have to stand right infront of the router for it to find the connection and even then its not stable.

Before the repair everything worked fine. I guess it has to be a problem with the connection from the wifi

module to the antenna? But i cant seem to figure out where the contacts are to check.

All the pins at the backside of the motherboard which connect to the battery case seem alright.

I looked for this problem on and I found a few people who had a similar problem but no solution

other then clearing the network cache or factory resetting which didnt help for me.

Another idea i had after looking for a solution for other phones aswell was that I might have accidentally switched 2 screws around on the upper motherboard because some of those create a connection aswell right? Gonna look at them the next time i have time to open it up.

I have oxygen with twrp and rooted it with magisk if that information is needed but i dont think its a software problem because it was working fine before.

Thankful for any kind of help.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] dave127:
I had some time opening it up again. All the right screws are in the right places and the antenna cable is also plugged in correct on both sides.
