I updated my G2 to Lollipop 5.0.2 and I don't see were you can add users. Was this feature disabled by LG?

I've tried guest mode. It is not the same as having multiple users. On my Nexus 10 I am able to log into 2 completely seperate google accounts by selecting the user. Guest mode still logs into the main user account but is just restricted.
I am looking to be able to switch between google acounts on the phone. If LG has disabled it, is there a rom available for the G2 that has multiple users enabled?

I believe you can't do that on 5.0.2, not for phones anyway. I think that is added in 5.1.1. So, you will likely never see it on this phone, not on stock LG anyway.

How to fix the incoming call bug?

Guys,
Cant answer any incoming call, no screen to answer show up.
Anyway fix this bug?
Lollipop 5.01
Nexus 6. Stock, this phone is not rooted.
This phone came directly from Motorola and they were sent directly from China I believe.
So these ones are not from any T-Mobile, att or any other carrier local store. I believe that sprint have this issue.

We have two nexus 6 phones.
One has the issue that when the phone rings it doesn't show up the window to slide or press to answer the call.

The heads up notification is in the SDK and has to be disabled/enabled by the developer (in this case Google for the Phone app). There is currently no option to turn the heads up notifications on/off anywhere in settings or the Phone settings. You could try a factory reset on the phone, and see if that fixes it.
If you are rooted, I would not factory reset. I would get the phone app from XDA, remove it from the phone, and install it as a system app and see if that fixes it.
Otherwise, the only possible way I know of is through a custom ROM (you would need to be rooted). I know for a fact that Pure ROM has a setting to turn heads up notifications on/off, don't know if any others have the option.
I'm on Sprint, so I had to do the "Settings - > More - > Cellular Networks - > Preferred Network Type " and switch to 3G. It's a pain, but this is the only fix that works for me / until Sprint fixes the network CFSB issue.

[Q] Android notification not working / not showing up in status bar(

I'm using 2014 Moto X on Verizon Wireless with latest Google Android 5.0, everything was working well and all of the sudden I noticed that I'm not getting all notifications as I use to anymore... for example, I'm not getting notifications when I get email to Gmail or text to Goolge Voice and etc. Rebooting my phone that did not solve anything(
Any ideas?

Not clear enough to provide an exact solution, but there are quite a bit of changes made to how the user is notified with lollipop; All, Priority and None modes. Use your vol up or down key on your homescreen and make sure you chose all, then give it a try!

That's not it, but I double check that too.. whenever you're send myself test email, I'm not getting until I refresh it manually.. same thing with Google Voice.

Settings - accounts - google, then your email. Check the auto sync there.

Only these two steps monitor the notifications. If nothing is happening, try clearing cache from the recovery. If even that doesn't help, a factory reset will do the work.

Are you sure all your sync's are on and you aren't on battery saving mode? Clearing cache wouldn't really help your cause, but in any case once you get to the android guy, tap power+vol up button simultaneously for a second and let go, repeat until you get the menu; it is a bit finicky

Sending gmail to yourself is not a good test, especially with certain routers which have problems with loop back issues. Have someone else send you an email, outside your network.

I email myself plenty of times from other emails, problem is obviously in something else, definitely not in email sending part.

I did not turn any syncing off and battery mode isn't on...
after doing Factory reset, that solved that.. but unfortunately not for long as a little bit over a week later I came back to exactly same issue AGAIN(((
You could try installing a different launcher see if this somehow kick starts notifications. I use Nova Launcher, you can get an unread count plugin for it which tells you how many missing emails, text messages, what's app messages etc you have. You may not need to install that though just nova launcher, switch to that and then back to Google Now (if you prefer it) then that should hopefully give it a kick.

Multi-screen Multitasking, for all apps?

Hey everyone!
I just recently made the switch to the Note 5 (loving it), and have ONE question to ask..
In Multi-screen mode, it seems only a few are allowed to utilize this. Is there a tweak that can enable this for ALL apps in the recents menu??
For example, there have been a few times where I wanted to use Settings and Messages Classic (a playstore app) to copy some stuff, but neither have the option.
Thanks in advance!
Believe its possible with root but not stock

Push notifications still not working for some apps

Hi all.
I am sure this question has been asked again and again.
But I am having troubles with push notifications working for some apps
I.e. Pushbullet, kaokaotalk
They don't work unless i open the app.
WhatsApp and Facebook seem to be working fine.
Anyone have an absolute fix?

Try adding them to the memory whitelist.
Phone manager>system optimization (paintbrush)>settings (gear top right)>memory cleanup whitelist
My understanding is apps in this list will not clear the memory when you "kill" the app. I could be wrong. Please respond to this post if this fixes your problem or not.
Two important settings, under Battery (protected) and under "Apps" (ignore optimization). Also try to put CPU to performance

3. Setting>advanced settings>Battery manager>Protected apps> Turn on for Whatsapp and Pushover

I have a note 8, but emui 4.1 is pretty standard across the line. Having the exact same issue. Have tried the PNF, whitelisted google play and whatsapp in the memory whitelist, protected apps, ignore battery optimizations etc.
I can repeat the error. So it seems that it ignores the whitelist like you suspected.
Steps. Clear all apps.
Open quicksync manually sync accounts that i want to show up.
Notifications appear.
Go to app task manager view with the square button, kill app.
Send message. No dice.
Have even tried using the PNF heartbeat fix, but to no effect.
Now i have one odd issue. When i received the device, google play services was already installed, but some how it was in the system folder despite the phone being locked. Not sure if that is an issue, since if anything i would suspect that would be helpful instead of harmful, but i have no way of removing it to test since bootloader is locked , and the play services is persistent over a factory reset.
Anyways, any other solutions i have not thought of would be helpful, huawei makes such nice devices, but if you get stuck on a chinese rom, it can be a nightmare for some.. went through the same headache with mate 7 but managed to solve its notifications issues.

Yes I have tried that. For now I think i will just add my chat clients and aquamail to the locked status on the task manager and keep them open... I have tried all iterations of power saving, etc.. so I think it may just be the build unfortuneately. Hopefully EMUI 5.0 will be a bit less invasive, as they said they are going back to a more stock android vibe to compete in international markets.
Hello, I am in the exact same situation. Did you get some luck?
I updated mine to emui5, but nothing changed.
Do you have a AL10 chinese version? I am thinking that this might be the point.
Thank you.

Question Andriod auto on S21 ultra doesn't see all apps.

So I updated my phone from an LG V30 to a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, and AA no longer sees all the apps I used to be able to use with it.
For example, I can't use SiriusXM, or Blackplayer EX, or Audible.
These don't show up in the app list.
How can I get them back?
They're all on Playstore.
If you want that exact version...
You could also try using ApkExport to copy the app and try loading the copied LG phone version onto the Samsung.
It will either install/work or not.

Unfortunately I wiped the LG and sent it back to Verizon.

Ok I see what you mean... I like my cars to be stupid. Haven't played with that.
I don't think it's the app, it's something misconfigured or missing on the phone.
I've seen something similar to this on the forum before but it was a while ago.
Try clearing the system cache and a network reset... can't hurt.
Try some Google searches. You might find the answer with an older Samsung model as there won't be much for the newest releases.
Try opening up Developer options>bluetooth properties
Make sure the proper bt protocols are enabled.
Double check bt settings.

I tried that and I did not see the apps I wanted in AA. It turns out you have to enable them first in the Play store. It's a very stupid and unclear process.
