Microsoft Launcher Glance Screen Outlook Notifications - Nokia 8 Questions & Answers

Hi
Thanks in advance for any help
I have just moved to android and a Nokia 8 from the Lumia 950
I have installed the microsoft launcher but am only getting email notifications from gmail and not from outlook.
I cannot find anywhere how to get the phone to notify me on the glance screen of emails in Outlook.
The only notification is the badge count.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Currently Glance screen in Nokia 8 doesn't support third party applications like Outlook, whatsapp.

Thanks walesmathew
That`s a bit of an oversight - Do you know if it is a planned feature ?
Is there a glance screen type app that will notify of emails from outlook at all using Microsoft launcher ?

I didn't get a proper reply from support. So many people are requesting the feature.
Its available in their Nokia 8 Sirocco. Atleast for whatsapp.
You can turn off the glance and get normal notification on screen like iphone.

more than one Gmail notification

OK is there any way to get more than the very first gmail notification at a time? Can we do something so that if we receive lets say 3 emails one right after the other They will all trigger the notification instead of just the first one?

well, if you are opening your email for the one, why waste time showing X amount...
You could also use the baked email app, its much better...

I think he means the "email" app. I think it is a lot better than the "gmail" app.

They are both not very good. The gmail app lacks lots of features, and the built in email app doesn't have push support. Try K9 mail. It will show a notification in the bar and a small circle showing how many new emails you have. It is also much more customizable than either of the stock email apps.
Question?
have you observed that the Detail of the notification will do the following
- when there is only 1 email, it will show the subject
- when there is more than 1, it will show the # of unread emails.

Yes, it has the number. But the thing is, the phone will only "ring" for the first email. It won't sound again for all the subsequent emails.

Is there anyway to solve that? I want to see every email subject when the email is come. I mean if i have 3 mails, status bar must show 3 gmail notificaion and list it.
Settings / (account name) / Labels to Notify / Inbox. In the notification settings, you can select whether you want it to notify for each email or just the first one.

[Q] Help: SMS messages being sent on itw own?

Help please.. I was told that my phone has been sending sms messages to my friends on my contacts list. Without me knowing it, of course. What causes this? Any help would be appreciated.
You have obviously installed some app that has permissions to do this. Go though the most recent installs, and uninstall any that have the rights to send messages and see contact information.
Look at the sms's sent and see if there is any clue there, too.
ok thanks for the quick reply.. But how about some apps, that came already installed on the phone, I cant remove them.. Also some social apps, like the facebook and yahoo messenger.. They have this permissions, is there any way to unable the said permission? thanks!
Preinstalled apps won't do this.. Neither will facebook or Yahoo Messenger.
ok.. because those pre-installed one's also has reminders like those. So its safe for mo to re-install fb and ym?
its safe to install fb yahoo .
What are the contents of these SMS? Is it like a butt dial SMS or are your friends getting strange advertisements and links?
Sounds like malware.
uhm, they were receiving txt messages that I have already previously sent them. I mean older ones..
anyone? who has the same problem?

Yes, I had this. For some reason the texts were marked as unsent, probably because I have bad cell coverage at home. On a reboot they were all resent, regardless of if they had been sent.
I started using GO SMS and I have not had the problem. I also updated my kernel, but I cannot imagine that was the issue.
I also rooted the phone and killed off the bloatware. Perhaps it was the social hub, which I have now disabled.
could it be the "sms popup" that i installed? I installed it for me to be able to reply much easier to person texting em. Its like a pop up where you can already see the message and reply at once..
I looked at the GO SMS, I saw that it also has a reminder that it allows the phone to send text messages on its own.
Whats the best messga widget do you guys use? Thanks!

Not impossible. I think I did use that to, but the GO SMS has a popup of its own which seems better.
There is also a GO SMS widget that works quite well, I find. I prefer the popup and an unread message count shortcut.

Reply to text messages

Ok folks,
I have my new Samsung Gear Live and its paired to my HTC One M7
Although I'm sure that I should be able to reply to SMS messages, the option is not available.
I can say "OK Google" "text fred bloggs" from the home screen and that works.
Do you think the limitation is something to do with HTC's SMS client?
Rik
I have the Live w/HTC One M8.
I'm inclined to believe that the reason my replies work is because I have (just started) SMS texting via Hangouts. I only switched from my normal texting client because I knew that the Wear watches would work out of the box w/Hangouts.
That said, Hangouts is a pretty lousy texting app, but I like that it's baked into Wear.

Ok so I don't have my Gear live yet (is on the truck out for delivery), however I asked a similar question and for what I understand you won;t be able to replay to the SMS until the App is updated with the new API to support that. I believe the only one that currently support that is Google own's "Hangouts".
On Google's promotional video for Android Wear, where the guy is on the bus, he gets a text message and says, "reply - be there in 2" and the message is sent.
That does not seem to work but you can make a swipe until you get a "reply" screen that enables you to speak a reply.
Thanks for the info chaps.
I don't even have the swipe across to reply option - all I get is the open on phone option
The reply by voice is one of the key things I was hoping for.
Naughty Google promo's grrrrrr.
Oh well - I suppose we are the beta testers
Same issue here with Gear Live and HTC One M7. I can "Open on phone" when I receive an SMS, but no reply options. Assuming this is a limitation of the HTC Messaging client not being "Wear-aware".... although FWIW I can reply to SMS natively on my M7 via Google Glass, which is essentially using the same set of APIs as far as I know.
So I switched (grudgingly) to Hangouts as my SMS client and all works fine. (Interestingly, the HTC SMS client as well as Google Voice continue to stay synched with Hangouts in the background, so I can still use the GV app or Web interface from other devices.)

no i think it needs to support android wear specifically. hangouts and evolve both do as of right now, i'd imagine most of the big apps will follow suit sooner rather than later since they stated that it was minimal amount of code that needed to be added in
A little disapointed to read this (mine will be here thursday) but dont forget guys. Updates, updates, updates!! Im sure it will work soon.

if the sms app you use don't support wear, i'd get in contact with the devs, it's almost a trivial amount of coding that needs to be done to support wear!

i wonder if will be updated with wear support since google uses hangouts now and i don't see them adding wear support to aosp apps that they have essentially abandoned.
maybe see if the 8sms devs can add support since it's very similar to aosp messaging?

When I swipe, I see REPLY, but when i press it, it basically just goes to a check mark.. doesn't even let me say anything.

What app? Apps need to be updated to trigger voice input from Wear notifications, so it might be opening the "reply" screen on your phone. If not, I have no idea.

The stock text message app on the Samsung Galalxy S5
I'm using Hangouts on an N5, but anytime that I try to send a message, it defaults to SMS (through Hangouts) instead of a chat message, which is what I want. Even if I'm replying to a chat that someone just sent me, it tries to send it as an SMS. Quite annoying.

that won't work until samsung updates their apps to include wear support.
as of right now the only apps i know of are evolve sms and hangouts
when i initially received my watch, I added most of the apps to my G2. I'm using contacts+ for SMS which has wear compatibility. works fine for verbal replies from the watch.

Can't change notification sounds for several apps, here Outlook as example

Hey there,
I want to change/enable the notification sounds on a new mail for the Outlook app.
I got to:
Settings --> E-Mail section --> Notifications --> sound for a new message
If I select this, I will be redirected to the notification settings of Android, where I can disable notifications.
Anyone having this as well?
How shall I change the sounds then?
Attached some screenshots of the screens (in German)
Anyone does have an idea?
I do have this in several apps, but here it's driving me nuts.
I had the same problem with Outlook. Ended up with uninstall, and changed notification sound first thing when I re-installed. Worked like a charm.
Any solution yet?
I'm having the same issue. I tried unistalling, rebooting and reinstalling but the issue is still there. I like to set different incoming message tones as I monitor several different accounts.
I'm having the same issue. I tried unistalling too, rebooting and reinstalling too, but the issue is still there. Sound for Outgoing is ok. Carsten
I connected Microsoft about this issue. After mentioning that it was in a Huawei P20 Pro, this is the response that I received:
"Thank you, i understand but this is really related to Huawei devices as it works on other devices with Android Oreo.
I'm really sorry about that but as i have said, this was reported to our Engineering Team and they confirm that's related to Huawei devices as they are customized.
Please let me know if you have any other questions"
Typical useless Microsoft answer
Same problem here. Can't change default tone for Messages, Gmail, Outlook, Outlook calendar and more... According to Huawei support (Norway), the development team is aware of the issue, and are "working on it".
See this thread on how to access the Settings necessary to customize the notifications for all apps.
It works great! Let me know if you need help getting it working.
I've also created a thread here on how to do this with Tasker. I have unique notifications for each of my apps now, plus you can set additional conditions/triggers the other apps or methods don't allow. If you're not using Tasker yet you're really missing out on the potential this phone has. You can find the thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...-to-custom-app-notifications-rid-one-t3821776
If it is a Huawei problem it is strange that you can set notifications for some apps (Hangouts and Whatsapp for instance) and not others. You would think if google can sort it for Hangouts they could do it for the messaging app! Makes no sense to me.

It's because some apps handle notifications in-app (like WhatsApp) and others let the Android system handle them. The ones that rely on Android handling in EMUI 8.1 seem to be forced to a single default sound. It's actually a very simple explanation as to what's happening, as to WHY Huawei would do this I'm as confused as you. There are a few available workarounds at least.

I agree but why for instance are someone like Google inconsistent between their own apps (hangouts / messaging). The whole thing is nuts.

Yeah that blows my mind too. Different development teams, lack of a base standard and poor communication between teams maybe? That would be on par for some of Google's past work lol. A lot of programs have become fragmented from their own counterparts within the Google ecosystem I would think.

Perhaps because Android Messages is installed as a system app on the P20 Pro.

Thank you for linking this!
I now have a P20 Lite and my wife has an Honor 10.
This was driving me crazy, but that solution worked perfectly. Especially as I was already using Nova!
Cheers!
I have the same problem. Uninstalling Outlook and reinstalling, I now get a sound but I still can't change it. It only allows "Outlook Email" as my sound.
Same with the Sky Sports and BBC news app, I get the generic notification sound, no option for there own breaking news sound.
Same issues with Huawie P20 pro
I have the same problem with outlook, new mail notifications, very annoying!
for sent mail sounds, the option to change the sound is available, but no option to change the sounds for the received mail, it just doesn't make sense to me at all!
I agree it must be down to Huawie P20 pro
solved !
I have the very same problems, after reading many threads on here I came across this, and the app works 100%

If anyone still having trouble changing the sound for the received email on outlook.
Just install Alertify from google playstore and set a specific sound to use for outlook. Personally I really depend on seeing when an email arrives and I set up a car alarm mp3 to go off to be sure of it.
Hope this helps someone.

Ambient display: notifications for all apps?

Hi
I was hoping that MIUI11 would resolve this issue for me but it doesn't. Is there anyone who has any idea about how to get all notifications on my AOD? I only see a WhatsApp, phone, messages, ... icon but for apps like Telegram there is none. This is weirdly inconvenient tbh.
I did a Google search and found some old topics about this but no real solution, maybe someone did find one and is willing to share?
I'm on 9T Pro but also interested in a fix. I use three different email clients and only Gmail shows a notification

You can add all your emails to gmail client, you will get notifications for all of them and set different sounds to different emails.

thats a issue with telegram itself, dont have any fix until now as i know...directly from the app you can config the notifications to show on lockscreen and all but, it doesnt show.
but, if you have no problems settig up a 3rd app to get that notificationsm just search...i belive there's some apps that can enable telegram notifications on lockscreen, but it need patience to make it work good.

I know you mean well but that is not a fix. That is what is referred to as a work around is is not suitable in my situation as it is a poor solution for my needs. That is why I specifically have different clients.
