[Vivo X Fold] lesscro:

[Vivo X Fold] rocky272727:
Works domain is external and linked to 365 and able to access outlook.com and other Microsoft email service accounts.
[Vivo X Fold] dallas1164:
Hey I just got a X fold plus as well. How are your notifiacations? Mine are hit & miss. I have done all the things your suppose to do. I tried to remove vivo.pem but couldn't get it to unistall through ADB,
[Vivo X Fold] lesscro:
Thx for feedback buddy, i will investigate more my config and maybe restrictions in admin console.

🙃🫡
[Vivo X Fold] Koysii:
I use email by edison https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.easilydo.mail and it all works fine. I think I had to install intu company portal app but otherwise I have works email and 2 private email accounts on the email app. Push notifs everything works fine.
[Vivo X Fold] Koysii:
The pinned apps are your apps you have at the bottom of the screen on taskbar on single screen mode. Just change them around but what you see on front screen will be shown on inside screen plus 3 more recent apps.
[Vivo X Fold] Koysii:
I uninstalled it all of it via adb, I followed this guide https://xdaforums.com/t/vivo-x-fold-debloat-notification-fix-origin-os-1-3.4566819/ after that all of my notifs work. Only messages and phone calls can display on AOD but I'm not bothered about that anyway I don't like seeing notifs on AOD. When notifs do come they show on lockscreen, WhatsApp, Snapchat Facebook, Instagram, email, messages phone calls, maps, Google now news chrome and whatever else.
[Vivo X Fold] rocky272727:
Got another 600+ mb trial update yesterday with small bug fixes in the change log
[Vivo X Fold] Auri_328:
Oooh. Okay, I understand. I am using a launcher so I don't see these single screen task bar anymore! That's why I didn't get it. Fine, I thank you for your answer :)
[Vivo X Fold] lesscro:
Edison make the job... Really nice app in some time... Thx for all 😘😘😘
[Vivo X Fold] dallas1164:
Thank you. Appreciate it
[Vivo X Fold] rocky272727:
Received another update, fixed the Bluetooth issue when using multiple devices.
[Vivo X Fold] Ayastar689:
Since this update system interface, the vivo UI, won't launch. I think I have the default Android interface now. At each reboot screen flashes and crash then default Android interface is used by default. Translation of the error message is : system interface display error : impossible to load the user interface system kits. You can visit a Vivo customer service center to solve the problem.
[Vivo X Fold] GaresTaylan:
I have completed this. Unfortunately the phone always says the password is incorrect.

Is the website on the PC https://my-passport.vivo.com ??

EDIT

I even just created my 3 security questions and when I answer them to try and reset my password they are coming up as wrong. It's almost as if I'm being blocked somewhere from submitting the correct answers. I'm not using any form of VPN.

I can log in from the link above on my PC or Mac fine. Phone just refuses to accept those same credentials.

EDIT 2

I can also log in from a browser on the phone to the link above. For some reason it just refuses to go through Settings and authenticate.

EDIT 3

Finally got it but had to create a new account.

Now if I could just get voice and data to work on AT&T.
[Vivo X Fold] timalpipo:
Hi Guys, Just a quick update here, found a way to allow my whatsapp accounts phone calls to ring.

notifications/app managmt/whatsapp/call notif (scroll down)/priority display and changed volume to bell.
[Vivo X Fold] q173242:
Just realized, that WhatsApp calls don't show on Lockscreen nore do they activate the display. Any solution for that?
[Vivo X Fold] GaresTaylan:
Could you please provide the list of commands you ran via ADB to get notifications working? Thanks.

EDIT

Ok so I have managed to get somewhere with this.

1. Used ADB to disable com.vivo.pem

2. Followed the thread here for some more detail on that: https://xdaforums.com/t/x70-pro-with-origin-os-initial-review.4384743/page-2

3. Followed this post to fix issues with some apps like Google Messages: https://xdaforums.com/t/notification-not-working-properly.4413391/post-86844881

Best I can tell this has gotten me on track to fix most of the notification issues I was having. I should also add that I factory reset my device and set it up fresh once I received it, which included reinstalling Google Play Store and services.

Looks like my last item will require me to look into switching to T-Mobile from AT&T. I just cannot get calls working but SMS and Data work fine.
[Vivo X Fold] carrieta17:
thanks for this tips.. I had to switch to Tmobile since it was impossible to make att work.. For those on tmobile there are parts of where I work that do not get any reception. Any luck on making wifi calls work ? I even tried using the digits app but when making calls it automatically switches to the vivo dialer..
[Vivo X Fold] GaresTaylan:
Just got back from switching to T-Mobile. Unfortunately, while I can make calls now, the experience overall is much worse. I'm constantly swapping between 3G and 4G - no 5G. Usually can't send SMS due to poor reception. Switch over to my S22 Ultra and I have perfect reception all around.

Unable to get Wi-Fi calling working on my end.
[Vivo X Fold] timalpipo:
That is what i've just posted, i had the same issue and now it works.
[Vivo X Fold] q173242:
Not working for me.
[Vivo X Fold] timalpipo:
my bad, it stops working when i kill the app in the background. disregard my comments.
[Vivo X Fold] nvgear:
WiFi calling on TMobile doesnt work, I called TMobile twice for two hours and they couldn't get it working on this phone. I eventually got them to send me a TMobile cellspot (it's a TMobile router that can emit cellphone signal) which connects to my internet router and now my entire house has TMobile cellular signal coverage at full signal 4g LTE and the phone works fine now indoors.
[Vivo X Fold] nvgear:
For those experiencing occasional lag or things not running smoothly, go to settings, ram & storage space, ram, turn off the extended ram and your phone will run smoother. It's virtual memory and slow, useless on a phone that has 12gb of real ram already.
[Vivo X Fold] carrieta17:
There is a setting under notifications and status bar then Lock Screen notifications turn on light up Lock Screen you go into the app and select show Lock Screen always
[Vivo X Fold] q173242:
Thx, display ia lighting up now for messages but still won't light up when incoming calls ring.
[Vivo X Fold] carrieta17:
Sorry…this phone is frustrating I understand that it’s a Chinese rom and it’s just what it is.. I just don’t understand why all Chinese phones are so draconian on notifications
[Vivo X Fold] mX87m:
At least you're not dealing with hardware level problems. Software is almost easy to get through. If you read all the comments here you'll find someone already cracked the notification issue. Just give it time and you'll see a simplified easy to use deblot method.
[Vivo X Fold] Apo11on:
I hope you understand with T-Mobile cellspot you are NOT using your phone's data connection at all. You probably have "unlimited" data plan, but you will be using next to zero out of that data, if most of your phone data usage is at home. Cellspot just sucks the bandwidth out of your home's internet line from your internet ISP through your home router, and converts it to mobile signals (GSM & data). Your phone basically becomes one of your home's internet devices, that consumes bandwidth, like a laptop, or Chromecast, or Roku or Amazon fire stick, while the data connection from your "unlimited" phone plan remains unused. You're basically saving T-Mobile network bandwidth, while paying them for a data plan you don't use, and putting more burden on your home internet line, in terms of available bandwidth at any given time, and overall monthly data consumption.
[Vivo X Fold] nvgear:
Yes everything you said is spot on correct and that is what I understand as well. In the past I've always used wifi calling on the iphone and samsung galaxy fold because my house has no tmobile signal indoors.

Since Vivo x fold does not support wifi calling, I could not make calls or text while in the house. But I now have full cellphone signal to make calls and text. As soon as I walk OUT of my house and onto the sidwalks the real tmobile signal kicks and I'm able to get 5g on this phone and everything works great.
[Vivo X Fold] nvgear:
They are draconian on notifications because there are A LOT of apps from crappy or shady app developers in the dozens of different chinese app store that will drain phones quickly so the cellphone makers have to take drastic steps in order to preserve the phone's battery life. They don't have one single heavily protected app store like we have here with just Google Play Store (or apple app store), where basically 99.999% of the apps on there are safe and will follow power saving guidelines and all are pre-approved by google/apple. Just thought I'd explain Vivo's and other Chinese brand's reasoning behind doing this.

Of course I do find it crazy that they don't give us USERS the actual option to disable all that forced battery saving methods and crazy ass notification blocks, etc.
[Vivo X Fold] yurushi:
Notifications are all working perfectly fine?

I managed to remove com.vivo.pem & com.vivo.sps

What other steps have you took to make it work?

Cheers!
[Vivo X Fold] Logan3824:
Has anyone been able to install YouTube vanced? It's still possible to install on my s21 but it keeps getting stuck where it says please do not exit the app during this process. I have given it storage permission but even after that, nothing.
[Vivo X Fold] rocky272727:
It is strange, my phone is working fine after this update, and noticing some UI improvements. Are you able to factory reset your device?
[Vivo X Fold] Ayastar689:
I didn't try yet. I'll do so and will update here.
[Vivo X Fold] Ayastar689:
I figured it out. It worked fine after factory reset. I was reinstalling everything then I wanted to switch from the default theme to the ocean theme. It crashed the phone again in the exact same way and nothing could fix it but to factory reset again...
[Vivo X Fold] francoiscox1:
Hi, i've got exactly the same problem. I saw the attachment on your post and it's in french so may i ask you something in french? It will be easier for me... Thx
[Vivo X Fold] Ayastar689:
Oui je t'en prie et je traduirai pour le reste de la communauté. Mais en toute franchise si tu as le même problème, j'ai tout tenté, tout formaté etc et c'est mort il n'y a plus qu'à attendre la prochaine mise à jour. Yes no problem and I'll translate for the community. But honestly if you've got the same problem, I tried everything, reset everything etc and there's nothing to do, we just have to wait for the next system update.
[Vivo X Fold] francoiscox1:
Merci!!! Donc comme toi j'ai fait la dernière mise à jour d'essai et j'ai depuis un soucis avec le volet des raccourcis. C'est le seul gros soucis que j'ai constaté et même si ce n'est pas si catastrophique que ça j'avoue que j'aimerais régler ce soucis... J'ai lu que tu étais passé par une restauration complète et que tu as dû tout réinstaller. Avant de changer de thème, tu as bien constaté que le problème avait disparu ? Et donc une fois la restauration faite, penses-tu qu'il est plus sage de ne pas modifier le thème ? Merci.
[Vivo X Fold] Ayastar689:
Malheureusement cela n'en vaut pas la peine car entre temps une simple pression du bouton du volume pendant une vidéo a redeclenche le crash. Ma double restauration aura donc été une perte de temps.

Just avoiding to change theme like you say won't help after factory reset because the crash happened again just by pressing volume down during a video.
[Vivo X Fold] francoiscox1:
Merci. Au moins ça m'évite une restauration... Mais ce n'est pas rassurant. J'espère qu'une prochaine mise à jour réglera ce soucis.
[Vivo X Fold] francoiscox1:
Par contre j'ai constaté d'autres choses... Par exemple, je n'ai plus la barre de volume quand je règle celui-ci, ce qui est plutôt gênant 😕. Je ne sais pas si une solution arrivera vite mais je l'espère 😬
[Vivo X Fold] Ayastar689:
Indeed like you just wrote in French there is no need to factory reset the phone because it wouldn't fix this random problem. We have to wait for the next update.

Même problème que toi pour le volume.

And yes it's true that the volume button won't make appear the dedicated volume windows anymore.
[Vivo X Fold] chha:
Hello, i have just installed last update on fold 2 (PD2266_A_13.0.14.7.W10.V000L1) , and same problem, no more interface (UI crash after reboot, warning in the task bar about kit).

My phone was set in french language

Putting the phone in English and reboot > the issue is fixed

I tried to put back french, and the UI crashed again, so for now use english to avoid issue until vivo fix it in the next update
[Vivo X Fold] Ayastar689:
That's a great fix! Je n'y aurais pas pensé ! THANK YOU chha! Merci!
[Vivo X Fold] CarlnTheCity:
Mine has reverted to chinese and now I cannot read anything...do you know a path to change the language back to English
[Vivo X Fold] lesscro:
i confirm switch back to english > restart > everything is OK > put back french without to restart > BRAVO !!!!

🫶🫡

Edit / Sorry you need to stay in english to avoid UI issue.
[Vivo X Fold] chha:
I hope that Vivo wll fix it in the next release

what are the usual delay between release ?
[Vivo X Fold] lesscro:
Big surprise, but we ened to report to be sure it will be fixed in next release.
[Vivo X Fold] francoiscox1:
Bonsoir, j'ai une question : quand tu as installé cette mise à jour, était-ce une version définitive ou un trial? Pour moi c'était un trial qui faisait environ 200Mo.

Je vois que la même mise à jour en version définitive est sortie entre temps et qu'elle fait plus de 500 Mo.
[Vivo X Fold] wissem99:
Hello, for the french people: have you guys been able to make the app "Compte Ameli" work ? Mine doed not it keeps saying "récupération des données en cours..." at opening and then i get this error "une erreur est survenue lors de la récupération des données"
[Vivo X Fold] lesscro:
Link ?
[Vivo X Fold] wissem99:
Ok now it is working. I had to use wifi instead of data to make it work. Very odd
[Vivo X Fold] francoiscox1:
Hello, je me souviens effectivement avoir eu un problème au départ. Je crois que cela venait des autorisations... Il faut tout autoriser dans gestion autorisation app et vider le cache. Sinon, désinstaller, réinstaller et avant de l'ouvrir, bien tout autoriser.
[Vivo X Fold] francoiscox1:
No link... I see it on my other Vivo x fold 2... But i chose to not install it.
[Vivo X Fold] kiwiz:
Same problem here. No more volume menu when I press the volume button on the side. Mon telephone aussi en francais
[Vivo X Fold] Ayastar689:
Mettez le en anglais en attendant la prochaine mise à jour et problème réglé.

Problem solved if system language is set to English while we wait for the next update.
[Vivo X Fold] Cyrax-001:
Do people in China have the same notification's problem?

I really don't get why the company doesn't address this simple issue instead of letting people look for workarounds
[Vivo X Fold] domineus:
It's a chinese phone so yes...
[Vivo X Fold] Cyrax-001:
I translated some Chinese articles on Vivo's website about the Whatsapp notifications. there are some steps to be done. I will try them and if it works, I'm gonna share them here
[Vivo X Fold] Ayastar689:
The issue seems to have been fixed with last trial update. No more UI crash when language set to French.

Le problème de crash de l'interface système quand la langue française est activée à été résolu avec la dernière mise à jour du programme Trial update.
[Vivo X Fold] Cyrax-001:
Did anyone notice that the refresh rate doesn't scale up or down. You can set it either to 60 or to 120. But it stays fix at these values and doesn't change according to the usage.

Is there a way or an app that regulates the refresh rate like the Galaxy Max Hz (which is almost limited to Samsung phones)
[Vivo X Fold] KestL:
Need help from anyone with the unlocked bootloader.

After the last update I got a bootloop, because I saved a wrong link to the last firmware file and flashed a wrong boot.img.

So I think I need the last boot.img (I think it's 13.1.15.4 version) or a link to the last firmware update. I tried to use an online restore but it shows there is no new version.
[Vivo X Fold] Cyrax-001:
well I found out that deactivating the dark mode solves the problem. so weird
[Vivo X Fold] Cyrax-001:
I am using Samsung Browser and it is not working... any tip?
[Vivo X Fold] francoiscox1:
Good news. Received and installed New trial and problem solved for french langage. Everything works perfectly👍😉
[Vivo X Fold] Cyrax-001:
It got stuck again at 120hz although I'm on the light theme
[Vivo X Fold] Cyrax-001:
Well I found the reason. Variable (smart switch) refresh rate works only:

1- with light theme

2- when the brightness is above a certain threshold (around 30%)

Otherwise it's always 120hz
[Vivo X Fold] Cyrax-001:
Fold x or x plus or fold 2
[Vivo X Fold] lesscro:
Git it, update it, restart it, change it, love it again !
[Vivo X Fold] domineus:
It won't show up just yet. I can try to grab my bootloader but I doubt it will work. Someone will need to capture the download link
[Vivo X Fold] KestL:
No need anymore, thank you. About an hour ago, I was able to restore the bootloader through online firmware restore. I believe they have just released the latest firmware for the restore service today. Here is the link to 13.1.15.4 X Fold full firmware.
[Vivo X Fold] domineus:
This is super helpful!

I could never grab the links because I'm not the best at packer capture
[Vivo X Fold] jeanbillfr007_1:
Hi everyone

Yes ! I'm waiting for this update for long time and really it solve the problem when the system is in French. It's the good news.

But there is an another : the usb-c headphone is still not detected when i plug it in. Someone else has the same problem ? Thanks.

En français : effectivement que le problème lié à la langue française est réglé. Par contre, mon fold 2 ne détecte tjs pas mon casque usb-c quand je le branche. Qqn d'autres a le même problème que moi ?

Merci.
[Vivo X Fold] francoiscox1:
Same for me... The audio out works only with jack adapter 3.5... 🤪
[Vivo X Fold] Smartphoner:
Every time a new foldable phone gets released I feel the glory of our beloved phone.

Not a single foldable phone can beat the specs of the Fold/Fold +

Maybe they can be slimmer and lighter but cannot compete with the screens' size, the fingerprint scanner, the cameras with 5X periscope lens, the fast charging speeds wired and wireless, IR blaster and the sound switch.

Maybe it can be forgotten from all reviewers nowadays but never from our side.

I'm really proud of my X Fold + !!!!!!!
[Vivo X Fold] jeanbillfr007_1:

Is it possible there's no workaround to get Google Assistant with home button? I have to select every boot another voice assistant and re-select Google Assistant and it work...I know chinese ROM doesn't love Google as defeault assistant and I don't need voice activation...but it could be good if we have home button always working to load Google Assistant :( ....

It works using other apps to have shortcuts on Android desktop...but it's not the same thing...
[Vivo X Fold] jeanbillfr007_1:
Hi

It's safe ? this apk is trusted ? Why my Google Play Store doesn't propose update ?
[Vivo X Fold] lesscro:
APKmirror give APK bundle (APKm = need extra app) or APK (direct from Store).

Sometimes you need to update manually some apps because update is not given directly.

I use APK Mirror since i have a smartphone. For me it's a secure website (official not clone).
[Vivo X Fold] salahakar:
Assassin, please let me ask for your help!! I'm just an XDA enthusiast not a tech expert. Have a brand new Vivo X Fold 2 that was supposed to be "Chinese ROM Google installed" but looks like it reset to "Chinese ROM no English in sight". Cannot bear to see this thing become a $1500 paperweight. Would you let me establish contact in real-time in order to (plead for) hands-on expertise? Many thanks for your consideration.
[Vivo X Fold] extremecarver:
Also Chinese Origin OS can be changed to English. There are many problems with the software, but English works nearly everywhere (except in recovery). Just use google translate with another phone to change language to english. Or search for 语 by typing Yu on Chinese keyboard.
[Vivo X Fold] vtseshko:
Hey! Can you, please, tell me if it's possible to use Android Auto in vivo x fold with root or without? And Google assassint also, please.
[Vivo X Fold] NeoGoku123:
Google

Google Assistant doesn't work
[Vivo X Fold] wissem99:
Hello guys, does anyone also expérience lag when typing passwords on gboard and know how to fix it ?
[Vivo X Fold] wissem99:
Ok i find the solution for thoses who encoutered the same problem. You have to turn off "vivo secure keyboard" in the phone settings.
[Vivo X Fold] kalotina:
how vivo secure keyboard is deactivated?
[Vivo X Fold] wissem99:
Go to settings then privacy and finaly turn off security input
[Vivo X Fold] kalotina:

How did you get it to work?
[Vivo X Fold] hjfisch:
Is it possible to change the startscreen from 4x7 to 4x5 somehow , because the icons are very small ?
[Vivo X Fold] rocky272727:
I am on the beta firmware and the last update just enabled it by default. 13.1.15.4
[Vivo X Fold] NeoGoku123:
Yes, I am too and OK Google doesn't work for me
[Vivo X Fold] rocky272727:
I didn't change any settings and noticed it started working by itself after the last update.
[Vivo X Fold] erhandavran:
Hi everyone. Unfortunately, I cannot change the font on my Vivo X Fold 2. ZFont 3 no longer supports it. Theme store does not downgrade. Do you know any other paid software?
[Vivo X Fold] NeoGoku123:
My phone case broke yesterday. Without the case, the phone is significantly thinner and I like it much more.My biggest fear is that because my hinge is now free, there is a higher risk of dirt or dust getting in there How are you all doing? Do you use a case or are you traveling without one? What is the chance that the hinge can break due to dirt/dust
[Vivo X Fold] Prydateer:
And what about Android Auto?
[Vivo X Fold] Smartphoner:
One year of its release now and it is still the best foldable device ever made regarding features!!!
