Can't get Google Assistant Routine to add to alarm - Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers

Using the 4XL - I can't seem to add it to my alarm clock.
The option is there under my alarm, I tap on the '+' where it takes me to the routine settings. I click on Save and nothing seems to happen, you tap the back arrow and it's not added?
Tried clearing the cache and restarting the phone

You'd think it being a Google device, this would be the first one it would work on. I just got rid of a Oneplus 7T which, apart from the camera, is proving to be the better device!

[Q] Lots of Questions about everything !

Hello I have lots of questions
1) is there a way to make active display or tap to wake up phone?
2) on my previous phone if I clicked on the volume key button the phone would turn on?- can I do it on here?
3) there are many more apps like contextual services and lots of other Motorola apps. Which are safe to disable?
4) is there a way to block OTA updates?
5) when you swipe down using two fingers you get the notification pull menus. But when I click the wifi button it opens the settings app and goes to wifi. Can't I edit it so it goes DIRECTLYY to. Toggle wifi?
6) pin on lock screen - on my old phones when I input my pin it unlockes. This is so stupid and takes more longer after inputtingmy pin. I then have to click enter? How do I automate that
1) You can use AcDisplay. You can't tap to wake the phone, a custom kernel would be required for that.
2) Not by default.
3) I leave Assist, Alert, Audio effects, Help and Migrate disabled. I don't know about the rest, but those are safe.
4) Just don't install them. I don't know if you can disable the alerts though.
5) Hold the wifi button . Works with other settings as well, try it out.
6) Well, you could try using an app that replaces your lockscreen which has this feature, such as the Home Screen Lock of Smart App Lock. By default you can't though.
Hope I helped.

I assume you are using Lollipop. The wifi-icon and the SSID are two seperate buttons. Tapping the icon switches wifi on/off. Tap on the SSID and it will take you to settings
I've found that long-pressing the wifi button will toggle it on and off.

Kill the Always On Display

How can I toggle the AOD to be completely off? This is driving me nuts. I'm aware of the settings within the Motion Sense area of settings. The "show when nearby" seems to take, however no matter what I do the clock still appears no matter what as an AOD. I've tried disabling the following in different combinations to no avail:
Motion Sense
com.google.oslo
Pixel Ambient Services
com.google.intelligence.sense
Motion Sense Bridge
com.google.android.apps.motionsense.bridge
Even tried the clock app itself
com.google.android.deskclock
Whenever these are initially disabled it seems to work for a minute or so but then the clock pops back up on the AOD. I just want the toggles to work! This is for when I'm driving and my my phone is mounted where it faces me. I already have 2 clocks in my car and don't need a third it's more of an annoyance than anything else.
Do you have Always On disabled in the Lock Screen settings?
Display>Lock Screen Display>Always on

Search for "always on" in settings and turn it off
display / lockscreen / always on - does not exist
Searching for "always on" yields no results.
I don't have a lock screen set as I don't need it, though I did try setting one temporarily to see if the option showed up, but nothing. That's how I used to do it on my note but they moved everything around on 10.

You really don't have always on under..settings/display/advanced/lock screen display....then scroll to the bottom??
Display, scroll all the way to the bottom, select lock screen display, bottom third of the screen you'll see Always on, toggle it off. You can still have it light up by tapping, lifting, or triggered by soli, in any combination if you wish.
edit.. Ninja'ed me Badge, it's there, he just missed it.

It's probably because you went around disabling apps. Enable the Pixel ambient Services.

With everything re-enabled and a hard reboot, I set a screen lock. Then went back to display and the "lockscreen" option was now available. I turned off AOD and then disabled the screen lock and it took. No more clock.
It seems as though the AOD toggle being buried in the lock screen options, which is only available when one is on will take no matter of a lock screen is set. So every time I want to change this I have to go through this process. I wish there was a Quick Settings shortcut for this.

Well it's not exactly meant to be toggled on and off often like the ones in the Quick Settings pulldown menu. The easiest and quickest way is just searching "Always on" in settings and you can actually toggle it right there as seen in the screenshot.

Also if you are not using the active edge for anything critical you might try button mapper by flar2 and see if one of the options can be set to it. Or maybe even on of the other options in his app will apply it.

I don't now and have never had a lock screen enabled on my phone and can and have always been able to enable or disable always on display. Unless you disabled some app affecting this as mentioned above it should be there for you too just as it is for the rest of us. You may want to look into that and see what's hanging you up.

I haven't been able to do it since it was virgin out of the box, the option just isn't there. Doing it on my old Note 8 was super easy it was right where it was supposed to be. Although I have found a workaround for anyone on the off chance I'm not the only one experiencing this.
Being rooted, I downloaded ShortcutMaster and used the app explorer and poked around until I found;
[Setup Wizard]
com.google.android.pixel.setupwizard
tap and scroll down to;
com.google.android.pixel.setupwizard.alwaysondisplay.AlwaysOnDisplayOptInActivity
Choosing [launch] triggers the screen from inital setup to toggle the AOD.
Set it as favorite, or Homescreen (on the paid version)
Launch Shortcut master each time to change it or use the homescreen icon shortcut.
The setting seems to take each time I've done it so far.

Mi 9t Pro MIUI 11 - notification issue and question

Hi there.
I don't know if it is normal, or not...
I bought a calendar app.
I was not able to receive any notification (bubble + sound). I could receive them if I clicked on the app to run it tho...
So I tried everything and now, it works !
Through, I need your help to see if everything good and seems normal for you.
I had hold my calendar app and "app info". And then, I had go to each permission and enable what I have colored in orange circle :
Battery saver https://imgur.com/OPoSxPL
Notifications https://imgur.com/uyP3axZ
Other permissions https://imgur.com/ssLgM0N
Enable auto start https://imgur.com/mEIyeZn
And then, enable two settings https://imgur.com/2lHHy29
And now, I'm able to receive all notification (bubble + sound) when I kill app.
Also it works if I restart the smartphone and unlock it to go to the home screen. But it doesn't work if I disable "autostart"
I have to do the same with messenger, reddit app.
Please, let me know if everything seems normal for you.
Should I do it with all social app ? Like facebook, whatsapp, snapchat, instagram ?
How about the drain battery ?
Thanks very much (excuse my english)
I had the same problem with yours when my first time using miui. I did the same steps with messanger apps (etc whatsapp & telegram). Plus I locked the apps in the recent app tray. It definitely helps with receiving notification on time in those apps.
I find, that I have to enable more or less all the options to be sure I will get notifications.
What you show on the pictures is OK.
My battery lasts 2 days if I use it normally with some Candy Crush, email, Instagram,... 5-6 hours of screen time
Android 10 broke my Amazfit and Mi Fit notifications. It only works if I uninstall and install again.

Thanks but it is annoying to do it for all and new apps you install.
I don't really understand what is "screen time"

Screen time is time screen was on.
You "lock app" by pressing left on screen button to see recent apps, long press app you want to lock, select lock icon.

Android 11 issues

Thought I'd start this up for anyone having issues. So far:
I've had the UI hang while trying to swipe up to go home.
I had the navigation bar become stuck in the middle of the screen.
The screen recorder doesn't work properly. Records audio but video only shows a background image that not on the screen. After I drop recording the status bar on top disappears in the home screen.
Anyone else having this issues or other issues?
Keyboard won't open using chat bubble on messages app
My only issue had been trying to trigger the back gesture or menu from the left side which could be a result of the new screen protector I put on, or just Google's garbage gesture implementation.

interesting... I'm having issues with Gboard not opening up at all most of the time with chat bubbles disabled. only sure way for me to get the keyboard back is to lock the device, bring up the keyboard trying to unlock and then the keyboard will show up in the current app.
I tried rooting using the latest magisk and phone does not boot past the bootloader. using 7.5.1 of Magisk.
The screenshot button is greyed out when using 3-button navigation. Works with gesture navigation.
This is all that records. *Edit*Nevermind doesn't upload

UI is not hanging for me but it keeps forgetting that I have Action Launcher as my default and kicking me back to Pixel Launcher when I swipe up to go home. It remembers after a reboot.

I don't have the option to bubble chat( don't see the icon on the notification bar) is activated for all chats but is not working for me.
Bubbles open for me, but 1) the nav bar for some reason shows up at the bottom of the pop up, and 2) it hangs, and doesn't allow interaction. As well, if auto-rotate is off, the nav bar will not always follow rotation, at times getting stuck on the bottom of the device, as well as constantly being visible, even on the always on display.
When I restart the phone I get a new voicemail notification every time even though I don't have any. This has happened on the BETA too

Anyone have problem with forcing 90Hz refresh ? Even enabled at developer option (now its call smooth display and i think this is same trigger like in display settings), phone sometimes goes to 60Hz for i think 30s-1m and after that i got 90Hz back.

Yeah my bubbles pop up but I can't get gboard to open. It either tells me gboard stopped working out nothing happens at all.
I performed a clean install from August Android 10 to September Android 11 update and I have not been able to get my face unlock to work. Anyone else having this issue. If so have you been able to find a fix for it.

power menu editor - add flashlight

is there an app that I could do this?
google asst is too slow turning flashlight on.
Try using "quick tap". You can turn it on and off by tapping the back of the phone twice.
Settings > system > gestures > quick tap > choose toggle flashlight
You just need to turn your screen on first, but it works on lock screen
unfortunately, I'm already using that to pause music, but maybe I'll have to change that.
AOSP Mods
Was hoping not to bother with the whole custom ROM with this phone.
But I'll read thru as it does look interesting. Thanks,
I just remembered an app I used to use on my Pixel 5 that would probably work for what you want. I'm not sure if it works on Android 13 or not, but it should. I'll think I'll reinstall it as well. Probably on my 7pro too

Did you run the adb command? You can find it in "help" on the app
I did. Should I have restarted after?
I don't remember. Can't hurt
no joy. tried a few different methods. I'd say it no longer likes the P5 with A13.
