Are your Live Captions currently working? Mine seem to have gone A.W.O.L. I've tried various videos, etc. but nothing displays. The option is on when I press the volume button(s). Any advice?
I see the option but nothing happens for me either.

I don't (even) have the "Live Caption" option in the Accessibility section. I have "Captions," but that's it. The option to select it is present in the volume rocker, but nothing happens despite it being activated.

According to some users you are certainly not alone. They did say that once app / system files were updated then the option appeared. But not everyone and suggested reporting the issue via the feedback option. Try updating everything first and see what happens. Factory reset didn't help either.

It's not silly because I have no idea what they were talking about either. I guess they mean apps like carrier services and perhaps the monthly security updates? I'll look further see if there are any clarifications. You have the 4xl and are in the U. S. right? They did mention all play store updates too.

simply search settings for 'live' there is a complete section dedicated to live caption, be sure it is enabled.

Interestingly enough, LIVE CAPTIONS STARTED WORKING AGAIN. I have no clue what triggered it, but there were some Play Store updates that took place earlier today. Go figure ?

Hmm I think it's not in the list because it's not really an app, but part of the OS.
How did you disable it? The same way you disabled it you should have an option to re-enable it.

I ve found a way to disable system update service.
1. Download disable service from the play store.
2. Disable All thread under Device update
3. Disable SystemUpdateService under Google Play services

I just followed the steps and the update notification in my nexus 5 is gone!

Keep in mind that doing it that way only hides the notification.
It will still download, and it WILL wakelock to do so.

I am using this to disable the OTA notification for Lollipop. It eliminates the notification but the update is still available under About Phone/System Updates, and it requires touching "Download" to download. So, why do you think the OTA will still occur?

I'm saying that it will just hide all system notifications, NOT get rid of the OTA. You'll miss other system notifications if you do get any and the OTA will still be waiting.

If you check app info you will notice you are disabling notifications for Google play services app. This app has nothing in common with standard android system notifications so they will continue to work. Question is, what other notifications does play services app has that could be considered important to the user.
Came back to the phone and my theme had changed and this icon was to the left of the bluetooth icon. Checked the QS and nothing else is turned on.

It just means your phone is currently rotation locked to 'Portrait' try changing it to auto rotate and the icon should be gone

Yep and it broke my subs black theme for messages. I had to uninstall reboot and reinstall. All good again. I get concerned when they update the UI because subs applied can crash the UI then we need a factory reset.
touchwiz also updated. the new drop down menu in home screen settings might be new for some people but I downloaded a previous apk version from sammoble.com that already had the notification pull down option. FYI sam mobile uploads most of the apks a lot quicker then Samsung lol.

Hi.
I just noticed that when I received a WhatsApp message I get no notification. Same when someone calls me on WhatsApp. The notification only shows up when I open WhatsApp.
Something that it's probably related, accubatery doesn't provide any stats, everytime I open it it's like I start it for the first time.
I'm pretty sure there is some hidden task killer that doesn't allow most of the apps to do background stuff.
Any idea?
PS: I removed WhatsApp and Accubatery from batery optimization, reinstalled both apps, same thing.
Thanks
LE: In case someone runs into this, disable "deep process clean" feature under settings/system/advanced. It should sort it out.
Same problems

I don't think it's possible that the CN rom would have a glaring fault like this - "Deep Process Clean" enabled but not having an option to disable it.
The whole moniker is pretty clearly a badly translated Chinese version of the concept.
Perhaps, two different people translated it from Chinese to English in the two roms.
Here's a suggestion:
1) Process could be "task", "program", "app."
2) Clean could be "kill", "end", "terminate."
3) Deep could be "Old", "late", "unused."
An actual native speaker of Chinese would probably knock it out of the park on first attempt. Still, I think it's worth a try.

The problem is that the "Deep Process Clean" option disappeared from settings, and now the phone won't get notifications until it is turned on. The notifications were fine immediately after 1.18 update, but now, 1.5 months later, Gmail won't work until the phone is turned on. Some other people have also noticed this behavior.
If there's an update coming up, could you ask the engineers to put the "Deep Process Clean" option back please?

Version 1.18 removed the deep process clean feature due to some bugs, it will kill the apps and preventing them to run in background. You can do a factory reset and see if you can get the notification.
Click to expand...

I am not sure what to make of it.
1) The option was removed, but clearly, the code is still there that kills the background apps.
2) He suggested that I do a factory reset, because I may "see if you can get the notification." I would hate to the reset the phone and find out it still kills apps.
3) I wonder if there's any way to clear cache or data from some app/system app to make this work.
Any ideas?
