time problem - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

My time keeps changing to Dublin time. It is really annoying. Any suggestions as to why it keeps changing itself? It does it random times too not just after a reset.

Start > Settings > System tab > Clock & Alarms > Time
what do you have selected for your time zone? and what time zone do you want?

Start > Settings > System tab > Phone >
There is a setting there to sync the time with the network. That is what causes the problem. Turn off the sync.

Turn off automatic time set, there is a bug that periodically jumps zones. Also it causes active sync to run all the time.
Start>Settings>Phone then "Time Zones" Tab, Un-Check auto time set.

I will try it and see if it worked.

Sorry for such a late reply but it worked. THANKS!!!!!

SMS Display on Home/Today screen

Hey guys,
(I've searched the forum with no luck)
I want to undo a setting I've changed, but I'm not sure where I actually changed it in the first place.
I've managed to get it so that any new SMS messages are displayed in full on the Home screen whenever received
How do I stop this happening?
I've got DiamondTweaks and TF3DAdvancedConfig - and I've looked through both of these programs for the specific setting, but not had success...
Please help, thanks in advance.

Ah, I knew it was something simple.
Thanks!

pop-up messages lost!!!

Hello, Im using win moblie 6.1 on my diamond. It suddenly stopped showing the pop-up messages. For example the alarm rings but I can't see the pop-up message that allows me to dismiss it!!! [I installed MTP [manila today plugin] before this happened, but it worked OK for a few days so I don't think it is the problem. Any suggestions to bring pop-ups back???

Thanks a lot my friend!!! You ROCK!!! it works fine and I also found the other notifications that were gone!!Thank you.

Active Sync "how-to" stop it from auto starting

Here is a simple and unintrusive way to stop active sync from constantly turning itself on.
Start
Settings
"go to bottom of screen and scroll right"-Connections
Wireless Manager
"go to bottom of screen and select"-Settings
Phone
"go to bottom of screen and scroll right"-Time Zone
un-check "Automatic Change Time Zone and Clock"
And that is it. Yes, it is that simple. No software needed. No complex BS.
It will still self start when connected to a computer, and it will still work fine if you want to turn it on. This will stop it from constantly "self starting" all on it's own when you don't want it to.
STICKY ANYONE?!?!?

Push notifications disabled

Hello everyone
I turned off all battery saving endeavors that I'm aware of:
1- Settings > battery & performance > power > battery saver > OFF
2- Settings > battery & performance > power > battery use > more > battery saver > turn on automatically > OFF
I noticed that after pressing more, if you select the second option: battery optimization
It lists apps that are either optimized or not optimized (that you can optimize)
I noticed that what's app & gmail were optimized by default.
Maybe that explains why their push notification was turned off overnight?
If you click the settings icon in the power section, it opens a menu. In that menu there's an option:
Clear cache when device is locked:
You have the option from setting it trigger from 1 minute, to 30 minutes or never.
What cache are they referring to?
3- under developer options
I turned off MIUI optimization
I left 'memory optimization' on low
Maybe the 'low' turned off push notifications during the night?
So, how is miui optimization different from memory optimization?
I noticed that this morning I did not receive what's app or gmail notifications till I opened each individual application.
This is a huge issue because I need push notifications to be like their namesake: PUSHED

I don't know 😀
I'll find out throughout the day though, I guess.
I did also turn off:

In the above, I turned off optimization for those apps.
So, now I won't know whether memory optimization in developer options or whether battery optimization will resolve it.
Well. No more disabled push notifications.
Either this resolved it:
under developer options
I set 'memory optimization' on off
Or this
I noticed that after pressing more, if you select the second option: battery optimization

my wechat/messenger/pebble all work fine.
Gmail for some reason isn't automatically syncing so it doesn't receive the messages.
This is incredibly frustrating.
I read that the gmail app from google play works better than the one in the mi app store.
I uninstalled the mi one, installed the google play one, and that worked.
I also noticed that in my flailing about, I turned on the 'WLAN only" option in settings->sync, which was a bad move. (not my root cause though).
I added everything I tried (and I did a lot) to my FAQ.

Apparently it didn't work.
I slept at about 11 pm
I woke up this morning to notifications from about 1 am
Then when I opened the app, I received messages from 2 am and onwards.
I checked the above settings. They were the same as before.
Very weird. Discomforting experience.
Try my suggestions in the thread to disable MIUI optimizations to reslove late/missing notifications problem:
underlines said:
Disable MIUI battery saver and fix missed/late notifications
Settings > Battery & performance > Manage apps' battery usage > Off
Settings > Battery & performance > Power > Battery saver > Battery saver toggle off
Settings > Notifications & status bar > App notifications > select apps that can show floating notifications and notifications on lockscreen
Security > Permissions > Auto start > select apps that should get notifications after reboot
Security > Settings icon > Cleaner settings > Clean automatically > turn off / Update automatically > turn off

This is the only one I hadn't done
Let's see
Ok some bad news
Today morning gmail was disabled
It could've spay been disabled yesterday but I didn't notice
I went to bed at 10 pm
Woke up at around 1 am
I found what's app enabled
But gmail was disabled
When I entered gmail, the last email received was a little after 11 pm
Then it refreshed & I saw emails from 12 am & 2 am
I fell asleep again & awoke again at around 4am
Same thing
Then finally woke up at around 6 am and the same thing happened
But since waking up & continuously using my phone, gmail is working fine. Emails are pushed.
It's surprising because I replicated the what's app settings to gmail.
Therefore they should be behaving the same.
Try this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...gcm&pcampaignid=APPU_1_YWdIWJ2-JML3vgSk-6qQDg
Ok
It turned out gmail was not synchronizing
See photo
I restarted that device & that resolved it
Why do you suppose that happened?

I'm not 100% but I think because google framework is installed, not part of the stock system,
that stuff like 'Google play services' has to be "kept active"' (autostarted, etc, etc) the same as wechat/gmail/etc.

I noticed that some themes can disable the push notifications. Perhaps you should try all the tweaks mentioned here when you are in the default theme first? Also, if you are in MIUI 10, some themes show a warning that they are not compatible with Miui 10 and that some parts of the "system" may not work properly. Did you get this message?

Is there a way to shut up the google assistant?

Is there a way to shut up google assistant? For example.... I ask to turn the lights on, and then it says very loud, ok I will turn on the lights . I don't mind so much during the day, but late when other people sleeps, it's really Annoying.
Regards!
You can set it by enabling the 'Night Mode' in the device's settings via the Google Home app. Go to that device in the Home App's main screen > Gear Icon > Notifications & Digital Wellbeing > Night Mode. There you can set the time period for the night mode and a few extra settings too.
