When I reinstalled telegram, now works. Some apps act funny on oreo. Think a lot of them haven't updated apps to work with Oreo. Half my apps won't work with edge lighting sense oreo update.

I installed Telegram X and that app was keeping the phone active and preventing it from sleeping according to Gsam.
Uninstalled it.

simple solution
hi
i purchased a chinese android 8.1. the telegram notification is not working well. even though I already set inside telegram, setting for keep alive service on, and background connection on. plus, i also already set the baterry optimization for telegram as: allow background running.
but everyting NOT working. Telegram can work for about a couple of minutes, after that it does not work. no notifcation.
I tried telegram X, same problem.
BUT......
surprisingly i found a trick...
Try this setting.. it will make telegram work well in android 8.1 .
inside telegram:
- set the keepalive service as OFF
- set the background connection as OFF
in bateray optimization for telegram:
- set Allow Background Running
But remember: Please do not exit / kill telegram. So after the you read message in telegram, just push home button. This will make sure Telegram will keep running in background.
I have tried this trick and works fine.

I don't follow the part about battery optimization for Telegram. If I go to maintenance and battery then? Thanks
My Telegram is currently the only app that is Unmonitored for battery usage. But notifications are still hit or miss for me.

[Q] stop viber sound notification

Hallo
How to stop or change viber sound notification?
TiA
Hi,
This is a member of the Viber R&D Team!
@shto - Changing Viber's notification sound is not available at this point. :/
However, we'd be happy if you add your idea via: http://bit.ly/H2xu54 Thanks!
You can stop Viber sounds form your regular device settings - Viber mirrors the device setting.
Please feel free to let us know your thoughts, questions and comments, we'd be happy to assist.
Thanks,
the Viber Team
Hi
Where is sound files?
It is no possible to change it?
Unfortunately we (as a company) cannot direct users to the exact files of the sounds (they are embedded within the app file).
As we said, we plan to add the option of customizing Viber's sounds in future versions.
We apologize for the temporary inconvenience.
Tanks, but .. why you need to doing embedded sound files in application !? I don't understand you ....
Come on viber we have been waiting a long timeeee

@htcmodteam -
We are aware of this request, and it is certainly high on our check list of development for future versions.
Once we have news about this feature, we'll make sure to inform you.
It's still not there after a year...
Hi,
We have since added an option in Viber to use the phone's ringtone+vibration settings, and we can see our users find this feature very useful.
We will consider adding an option to completely customize Viber's sounds and vibration in the future.

It's really annoying to have viber sound for every chat message. All other messaging apps have disable notifications. Appreciate if you can disable sounds.

This is a known request, and we are considering to add such a feature in future versions of ours.
Meanwhile, we invite you to enter our Feature Request page and post your suggestion there, or join an existing similar suggestion. Unfortunately it is not possible for us to integrate every suggested feature into Viber, but the more people join on a request, the faster it will become reality

+1 on removing chat sounds. It's annoying that it beeps and boops when receiving and sending messages. Other than that is the best chat app I've used so far.
Can we stop the stupid 'beep beep' sound whenever we receive a msg in viber yet?
Why is it so freaking hard?

Yes. Running Viber 4.0.0 on a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 running stock JB 4.1.2. I already uncheck 'Use system sounds' and it still beeps whenever a msg came in...
What else do I need to do?
Thanks.

and not just 'beep beep' when a msg comes in, it also 'beep beep' when I sent out a msg...
Beside that, more bugs:
-------------------------------
- after I quit Viber by options->exit, when a msg came in, it still beeped and gave notification. If I quit Viber, it means I don't want to receive/send anything and therefore I don't want 'beeps' and notifications. Please stop everything when I choose 'exit'.

@testrider -
This is the expected behavior from Viber at the moment. We see Viber as a "substitute" for your mobile service, meaning even if it's closed (using no RAM or bandwidth), it still remains available thanks to the C2DM service.
Viber's "exit" capability is relatively unique in the messaging space. Our statistics indicate that the vast majority of Viber users (well over 95%) never use this feature. In discussions with users about this feature we learned two things:
1. Those who wanted exit were typically "power users"
2. Overwhelmingly, the reason they wanted "exit" was not to become inaccessible but rather to make sure Viber does not consume any resources. Still, they expected Viber to be accessible even if they exit the app (via C2DM).
We believe the number of users that want to an exit feature that will turn off Viber completely represents an extremely small number of users - maybe 1 in 10,000 overall. As such, we do not believe adding an "exit and turn off notifications" feature is needed. It would merely serve to unnecessarily complicate the application. We are sorry if this is not the answer you were looking for, but we need to make sure that adding features that would make some happy would not hurt other users.
+1 for turn off notification sound!!
And I already posted request on your database.
if you use old version of viber app, to stop it to check/prompt for updates, add this to hosts file
Code:
127.0.0.1 www.cdn.viber.com
127.0.0.1 cdn.viber.com

Cannot receive application notifications

Hello everyone,
I just bought my new Realme X2 Pro from AliExpress a few days ago, and have been facing an annoying issue.
Although I have disabled Smart Power Saver and App Quick Freeze features in the settings, almost all the installed applications do not pop up any notification. I also have enabled notifications for each app, such as Yahoo email, Gmail, Mobile banking apps, Telegram, Imo, WhatAPP, etc., and have allowed them to always run in the background. I know it would drain the phone battery, but I thought doing these kinds of stuff would fix the notification problem. I did whatever the Realme website suggested and also what the community proposed.
This is my first experience with an unknown cellphone brand, and I have to put it to the experience.
I was wondering if anybody can advise me on a solution.
I have to mention that I did factory reset my phone thrice and also updated my phone to the latest OS version, but nothing changed!
Suggested solutions by Realme which did not work:
https://www.realme.com/in/support/kw/doc/FAQ1106
I would appreciate your valuable comments on this topic.
It's very strange,
I buy from Amazon the european blue 12GB 256GB and I only setup my programs and I don't have any issue in notifications at all.
I use Skype, Telegram, Whatsapp, 4 e-mails accounts and everything work good has expected. I have this phone 5 days ago and I don't have this notification issue.
And is a very boring issue.
As far as I know: Chinese ROM have problems with notifications ...EU ones is good

So go in the apps that you aren't getting messages from in the app list in the settings menu and in one of the options you can select wifi or wifi and data . I had a bunch of apps that were set to wifi by default so I had to adjust that (I just went through and activated the wifi&data option for all the apps regardless) and also if you like use adb to remove Athena package that fixed all notification issues for me.

Thanks for the comment. WiFi and Data are enabled by default for every application, and changing them did not solve the notification issue.
Remove coloros.athena.com service through adb. It will solve the problem. U can also remove other Chinese apps too.

It's com.coloros.athena if I'm not mistaken.

Thanks, I just did it, but it didn't solve the issue. If I close the recent apps, no notification will be shown. I need to keep the apps running in the background and do not tap on close the application icon, which is not acceptable. We close the recent applications habitually.
Any solutions?
In my case it eventually worked for Gmail but Hangout still needed it to be in the background for instant notifications. I have already submitted a ticket to their Chinese bug forum.

Yeah, Gmail mostly shows the notifications, but Yahoo Mail, WhatsApp, IMO, and even mobile banking apps do not show any notification. I miss so many calls and chats because of that. I have enabled run in the background and have disabled the power saving, but most of the apps do not follow the rules. ColorOS kills them completely. I reckon Realme Chinese versions have these issues.

Yea hopefully they will fix some of it with the next update. But on the other hand you don't have to miss those calls and chats. We can still lock the apps in the background for instant notifications in the meantime.
I talked to the company support and told me the next updates will solve this

Hi,
Even if we lock an app in the background, if we swipe up, that app would be closed! We usually do it. Realme and ColorOS should release an update for Chinese version of Realme X2 Pro model to get it fixed.
Same issue
I'm experiencing this issue.. I have a Chinese master gray model.. Such a disappointment when I started using this phone. Had such high expectations.
I never get email notifications WhatsApp works sometimes Facebook sometimes messenger sometimes who knows whatever else works and doesn't work. I went through 250+ apps turning everything on in notifications. My battery is set to high performance all the time.
This has to be the worst phone I've ever owned. Whether it's because it's a Chinese rom or Color OS who knows. Would love someone to find a solution
If i find a solution I'll update you

Please participate in the pool. Your vote is highly appreciated.
I'm on the EU version and GMail will only notify me of emails from my main Gmail account, I don't receive notifications on 3 other email accounts that I have linked to the into the Gmail app. even though its set up to do so.

WhatsApp Darkmodeon razerphone 2?

Hello together,
WhatsApp started having a Darkmode if you enable the Darkmode for your device via settings.
So we don't have that setting if I'm right, we could activate it with Nova launcher. I'm using this Darkmode since I got my mobile and even turning on or off doesn't help me to get the WhatsApp darkmode.
Won't we be able to use that feature because it isn't reachable through the phone settings?
Thanks in advance
if you are rooted there is a way. if not, just wait a bit more, in whats app beta changelogs its shown they are working hard to release it soon:
https://wabetainfo.com/whatsapp-beta-for-android-2-19-354-whats-new/#more-6249
its coming really soon it seems.

Thank you! I was just wondering because Samsung user I know can already use it.

Notifications not getting delivered in Android 10

Hey All,
Since the update to android 10 I have noticed some apps I don't get notifications if they aren't running in the background.
Initially Whatsapp was like this, but since the last update that seems to be fine. But apps like Discord, unless I have it open in the background I don't get notifications. I have no issues with Kik, Slack or Messenger.
Is there something I can tweak to carry on getting notifications if the app is closed.
i never had any issues for notifications.
you can go to Settings,Apps,Discord,Battery,Background restriction(make sure its App can use battery in background)
then below it Battery Optimization,look for Discord,press Discord and choose Don't Optimize.
hope it helps.

Hey, thank you, I will give it ago. It's weird how it was fine in Android 9, and even weirder Whatsapp started to behave after the first update after the Android 10 upgrade.

You need to go to Settings--> Battery - - > Power Master - - >Auto start manager - - > Select the apps you want to get notification for
Also, make sure you haven't put the notification on silent for that app

Thank you so much, Auto Start Manager was off for all the apps I didn't get notifications for and on for the ones that I did - setting the ones I wanted to on fixed this.
Is there any reason why some apps are off and others on?

ANdroid 11 + Bubbles + Whatsapp

Although Android 11 allows me to enable Bubbles for WhatsApp in the system setting (under apps and notification), WhatsApp notiofications still are displayed as usual.
Whatsapp devs have to update their app in order to have working bubbles.
Knowing how slow devs at whatsapp are, pretty sure we won't see it in a long time.
Hopefully they upgrade their app for 2021.
Telegram already has it btw
1. In Android 11 settings it is possible to enable bubbles fro WhatsApp, like fir Messages(fir example, for Messenger it's not) so in theory whatsapp is ready
3. WhatsApp customer care told me twice, in italian and english, that it's not their problem.
