I love the device so far, ran only into two minor hiccups.
1) I had other Huawei phones recently and either this is new or I managed to disable it previously and forgot how: When I open the app list I get a row of "suggestions" and find those useless/annoying. Can I fix that?
2) I .. didn't even know that it would come without a notification led before it arrived at my doorstep. Somehow every phone I owned in the last decade or so had one and I start to miss it. Are there any software fixes for this, maybe using the always on display mode?

for 1) - unninstall tips app
Thst doesn't change the behavior (bit is probably a good idea anyway..).
My app drawer starts with a row of suggestions (recent apps I guess), a little bit of separation space and then I have the normal A-Z listing of apps.
The suggestions are bad/crap/wasting space 99% of the time, so I want them gone. Tips doesn't do that as far as I can see..

For the second the P30 pro has Always on display and after the 124 update shows all messages from all apps. Even from 3rd party apps.
How.. why..
That is a (cool?) app to show your battery status around the notch area.
It certainly has nothing to do with the app drawer/launcher problem, but I also don't see the relation to the missing notification led (although it would be cool if the app could function as that instead of a battery indicator, but then it also would need to be displayed whole the screen is "off").
Unrelated, no?

Unfortunately that seems not good enough.
For one, notifications are funky/working only half the time for me so far.
Worse, the notifications that do appear on the always on display are gone after I unlocked the phone once. Even if the notification still exists/wasn't dismissed, it's now gone from the always on display.. :-/

I think this app might work for you Always On Edge - Edge Lighting ? ; https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.used.aoe
I'm using it on my p30 pro and also the s10 plus. You can disable the edge lights and only use the notification icons if you want.

Thanks, that .. might be a solution, maybe. Will spend some time with it, a quick install was both interesting (it's really customizable) and disappointing (some things didn't work at all and I'm .. unsure how it interacts with my default lock screen, how the unlock process is changed).
Maybe just needs more time to check it out? Unfortunately I haven't found proper documentation and the spelling in the options is a bit hard in places [English is a foreign language for me too, so no blame here].
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.

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.
As title, what aplication are you using for sms/text's?
Currently I am using stock samsung, but is is incredibly slow. I mean I type quickly, and sometimes my messages appear after 5-10 sec in it. Also I can get a text and when I enter apk I need to wait another 3/4 sec just to let it appear. Very frustrating, looking for something better, maybe google messages with one ui are better? Or maybe you got some alternatives?
I use the Google app. IDGAF about Samsung and their apps.

Samsung Messages before. Then started using Google Messages for RCS. Switched back to Samsung Messages as RCS is now supported by my Service Provider in Australia. IMO, Samsung Messages is better than Google's in the functionality wise.

Your Service provider has to support RCS to start with. I have Galaxy Watch. I get more options on my watch notification. Also, the notification tray has functionality to copy OTP or any numbers if the text has one.
I hate to sound thirsty, but look at my post regarding one ui themed Google messages .
I'm deep into my 2nd whiteclaw (mango) ,so I'm like super click bait right now
Been using google app, now switched to samsung messages. Only sms to mms conversion is annoying. Do you know how to turn off sms to mms conversion?

Signal for SMS/MMS and wechat for other type of internal chat.
which is the best way/app to active notification light freture?
i've seen videos on AOE and Notifybuddy apps. but are they safe to use?? and how much power they consume on regular use?
I have same question. Surprised, that phone has no support of Always on Display like it was on my previous samsung. AOE require rights to read your messages, that is not inspire confidence

It has AoD support.
Though it's not as feature rich as I would like.
AOE needs to read messages so that it can see that there are messages.
I think that android ( at least miui ) blocks apps from seeing that there are messages even if they have permission to see notifications.

Try to install apps with "backup & restore sms" and they want permission to read your messages. They all unencrypted allowed to app now. Similar permission need stock SMS messenger

No, only 10 seconds can't be called an AoD.
They should call it a 10 second on display or something like that. Everything except Always On because it isn't always on.
It's also totally useless because instead of a single tap to view the "AoD" you might as well doubletap and view your lockscreen.

The issue seems to be there for years, Note 9 and 10 were also restricted for 10 seconds.
I guess Xiaomi wants you to buy the Pro model which has true AoD.
I send them an email and their response is that they don't offer full AoD because it drains the battery. They want you to enjoy full battery life they said.

I have had Oppo Find X5 Pro PFEM10 for over three months and observed some issues. Some might consider minor but very annoying and I feel if I cannot find a solution this phone will go to garbage. My current carrier is T-Mobile.
The first issue, the built in clock application widget which has also weather integration, most of the time shows incorrect location. For example: I am in Florida, and it shows weather in Atlanta. Dual clock widget while I am in Florida, shows current location somewhere else. I tried to remove location, set it again but the issue repeats. The other applications that are not default shows accurate location.
The second issue is related to location and camera. I take pictures and it shows inaccurate location here as well. It is very annoying.
The third issue is related to the WhatsApp application. When you on the mobile data, you can receive messages but you cannot make or accept callsl, it shows as Connecting ... but it doesn't go through.
There are other issues with this phone like Google Pay doesn't work and apps that depend on it. Nike App payment doesn't work. etc. less annoying but honestly what is wrong with the manufacturer? Why this phone such a piece of "art"?
Anyway I wanted to pick the greatest brains of this holly place and see if the issues I mentioned can be solved to save this creation of one kind from becoming the trash.

So you have the same issues, right?
As for the sound, I have the same problem. If I am not mistaken I had to reset the custom notification settings for the app, and then let it run in the background. And now I have notifications. The problem with this firmware, you need to enable permissions/notifications/settings in multiple places, and some of them are not intuitive.
