Issues with Google Assistant and WhatsApp - Huawei P30 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello all!
I have recently acquired a P30 Pro (Dual SIM version), and there are two issues that I would like to solve:
1 - Google Assistant won't work if the phone is unlocked: If the phone is locked, using "Ok Google" everything is OK, but if the phone is unlocked, there is a voice answering me, but the screen remains blank. It shows the blank space where the answer is suposed to be, but it does't display anything. Does anybody have a similar issue? - THIS ISSUE WAS SOLVED - It seems that the Google app was updated, and the issue went away.
2 - In the Do Not Disturb mode, I have allowed all calls to ring. Nontheless, when it is active, the WhatsApp calls (both, normal, and videocalls) are not ringing (even if they are from my "favourite" contacts). Of note, if the Do Not Disturb mode is off, WhatsApp calls ring normally. Also, I have realised that in Settings>Notifications>WhatsApp, there is no a "Calls" option (I wanted to activate an exception for that cattegory). I have: Crytical applications, Chat history, Sending media, Error notification, Groups, Messages, Silent notifications, Audio playing, and Other notifications. What can I do? - THIS ISSUE WAS SOLVED - In the notifications settings, the "Calls" options suddently appeared, and now I have been able to config it.
Thanks everybody in advance!!!
PS: I'm in EMUI 10, but in EMUI 9, I had the same issues

AA keeps "ringing" Whatsapp notification.

Hello guys!
I've finally my hands on a VW polo with android auto.
Yesterday I've done some testing with my stock rooted nexus 5.
I've gotten familiar with AA, understanding how to reply messages, but I don't know 2 things ( related )
1. how to "swipe off" message notification
2. how to stop ringing from WA .
I don't know if it's only my problem but after I receive a WA message ( I think it's with sms too ) the car keeps playing the notification alarm of the received message, no way to stop it, unless I plug off the cable from the phone.
It's VERY VERY annoying, someone has gotten the same problem?

Ha. That is interesting as I am having the exact opposite problem on my vw 2016 head unit. I get a visual notification of sms or hangouts message which pops up on the screen for a bit but no audible notification at all. I find this very annoying too as its not very safe to take your eyes off the road to scan the car's screen all the time to see if you have missed a message.

Sorry, but I forgot to tell that I managed to resolve my issue.
My cause of my problem was quite simple: On other notification ringtone I had a sound that was on call tone but NOT in that others notification tones ( titania if I recall correctly ) and this caused the loop.
I have to mark that I NEVER changed that tone and I even re flashed the phone.
Hope this helps in your case!
Same problem with WA and group messages [solved]
I had the same problem (ringing notification) with AA and WhatsApp group messages. After a lot of tests, I checked my WA notification option and It was silenced for group messages, them I changed it to a ringtone and the problem was gone, but now I have a ringtone every time a group message come. Another solution is to turn off group message notifications at AA config, it works well too.

Disable vibration while on calls?

Currently, my phone will vibrate for certain notifications while I am on a phone call. I don't want any vibration to occur while I am on a phone call (although a discreet beep in the background would be good, but not essential, the main thing is no vibration while on a call).
I've looked extensively in settings and can't find any way to achieve this. Have I missed something?
Phone is unrooted and stock ROM.
I'm looking for the same thing! The vibrator is so darned loud and with phone in my ear, it's crazy!
Hi,
It turned out I had to install a 3rd-party app for messaging (Handcent) to get this feature.
Also, after investigating further it turned out that the stock Messaging app doesn't vibrate when you receive a message while on a call (that is, there is no notification at all during the call). So it must have been some other app that had vibrated in my ear. However, I installed Handcent because I still want a notification (a tone) if I receive a message while I am on a call.
Hope this helps.
Look like the bug has been fixed and will be available in "future build"

No missed call notification in notification bar when connected with smartwatch

I have a Note 8 Oreo (stock SM-N950F) and a Huawei Watch 2 4G.
I didn't have any problems until recently, but now when I have a missed call phone does not show any notifications in the notification bar, but if I go to recent calls I can see it as missed. The watch rings and shows the call as missed in notifications. The problems started before the upgrade to Oreo, which I did yesterday.
When I disconnect the watch (bluetooth off), missed call notifications are back to normal in phone.
I don't have other notification problems (mail, sms, etc) when phone and watch are connected. I checked all notification settings and permissions I could imagine, in both phone and watch, and everything looks normal.
Any ideas?

FB messenger and vibration

Hi,
since ~2weeks ago when I got message in messenger, it vibrates one short and one long. In the past it was only 1 short..
Not all phone affected, in the family there is another p30pro, everything is the same, and that is fine.
In local forum another huawei phone has this issue.
Anybody faced with this? Any solution?
You changed your notification sound?
nope, no changes.
found this..: https://prohardver.hu/dl/upc/2020-04/167156_screenshot_20200414_143648.jpg
disable the always vibrate. now the long bzzzz bzzz changed to short bz bz.
There is a section in the notifications of the app that shows you notifications of chat bubbles, chat and calls, stories, among others and you must modify one by one to disable vibration, and it is only activated when the smartphone is in vibration mode

Question WhatsApp Audio/Video call silences the device

I have been using Pixel 7 for a few months now and am facing this issue since the day I have got this device. I am not sure what is causing this issue. I tried going through all the settings, developer options, custom rules, notification settings for Whatsapp but couldn't find anything.
THE ISSUE - The device works perfectly fine when I get a normal phone call, which means it rings if the phone is on ring mode when I receive a normal call. Where as for a whatsapp call (Audio/Video), even if the phone is on ring mode, it rings for a second and then immediately switches to silent mode. This means if I get a call over WhatsApp, then after that my phone will remain silent until I manually turn it back to ring mode by clicking on volume button and changing the setting. AI have to do this every single time when I get a WhatsApp call so that I don't miss out my next normal call.
I tried uninstalling the beta version, but it behaves the same way for the regular whatsapp as well. I would appreciate if anyone here could help me with this issue which has become a pain now.
