I have not found a fix in all system settings and phone dialer app settings to make my screen light up and show caller name on stock dialer app and third party dialer app like the Ex-Dialer app my favorite. I tried other dialer apps and the stock Google phone dialer and still my phone does not light up on incoming calls. The phone rings though on regular ringtone and I just swipe down on the notification panel to accept the incoming call. Any help is most welcome and thanks.

I want to replace the default dialer with 3rd party app.
The problem is that once you have a missed call notification on the notification bar, it won't disappear until I open the original dialer.
I want this notification to disappear when I open my new dialer app!
Is there a way to do so????
THANKS.
Hey guys,
I've looked around if there was any app or mod that does this.
Basically whenever you receive a voice or video call from WhatsApp, the contacts name appears on the full screen.
It would be cool to have the incoming calls behave quite similar to the default android nougat + behaviour , which is the Call from the phone dialer only shows as a notification bar on top of the screen .
I use the whatsapp plus version by the way . ( I got it thinking it would have this sort of a mod)
To make phone calls and text I use an app called TextNow. I have set this app as my default app for phone and messages.
On my old phone when someone called me textnow acted like the normal stock phone app and would ring and go full screen to show there is a call. Then i can answer or end the call.
The app behaves differently on the p30 pro. Again, I have set Textnow as my default phone and msg app.
When someone calls me my phone will ring, but only a small phone icon will appear in the top notification bar. To answer the call I have to drag down the notifications, select the textnow notification banner THEN it will go full screen and I can answer the call or end the call.
The attached screenshot shows the phone icon in the corner. That is all that appears when someone calls me.
Any idea how to fix this?
Have you given the app the "draw over other apps" permission?

Yes when someone messages me a chat bubble (like with Facebook Messenger) pops up on the screen. If I don't close the chat bubble that annoying overlay warning message comes up.
I've tried messing with all the settings and notification settings but I still can't see the whatsapp incoming call screen.
It rings and shows but lock screen only.. doesn't show the incoming caller picture with answer/reject buttons like a normal phone call.
I have set it to allow notifications on lock screen.
does anyone else have this issue or if it works for you , can you share your settings ?
Ya me too.
Try Checking the battery saver page and turn off smart saver for whatsapp.
It's not a power management issue.
It's there OS lock screen blocking the WhatsApp caller screen. You hear the ring tone and see the icon on the lock screen notifying of incoming call.
You had to unlock the screen to see the caller screen to answer/decline
I have a problem with calls. When I receive a call, I slide down to accept it and it immediately goes to the home screen. I can see the call icon in the notifications bar, and it is listed as a sticky notification, but in order to find it I need to scroll through all the unread notifications to find it. Sometimes I cant find it and have to clear the notifications in order for that to be the only notification in the list.
Another problem I have when I make calls (maybe the same problem) is that if the phone goes to the home screen for some reason (intentional or not), if I select the notification to go back to the call or if I select the call app via the recent apps button, it goes to the calls app as if I were to make a new call. I then need to click on a tab inside that app to get to the actual call.
Have you noticed these issues? I am running the stock OS.
