Notification settings changing to default - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys.
I'm having an issue with the notification settings, every time I change the notification tone and vibrate after some minutes it changes back to default.
For example, I selected a different notification tone of the one I have in my general Android settings, and the vibrate changed to Long, but after 5 minutes WhatsApp changes it to the default notification settings.
I've tried to uninstall and reinstall WhatsApp apk and it didn't solved the issue, also have restarted the device just after changing the notification settings.
I had the notification sound on my SD card and the issue happened, then I changed to the device memory and still happening.
All permissions are allowed for the app.
It's the first time it happens to me with any of my devices.
My phone is a HTC 10 unlocked / developer edition, running Android 7.0.
Does anyone have an idea why this is happenning?
Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem on S7 edge.
I use whatsapp beta.

Have you tried uninstalling WhatsApp, restarting the phone and seeing if the problem goes away?

Problem is fixed by installing playstore version. I think it was beta related

[Q] Facebook issues?

Hi im using the xtrsense 5.0 ROM, i'm not able to get on my fb app (version 1.9.6), it cuts off and shows me:
-------------------------------------------
Connection lost: tap to retry
-------------------------------------------
when i log into facebook from the phones browser it shows a security warning that says:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are problems with the security certificate for this site.
The name of the site does not match the name on the certificate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How can i fix this problem ? I tried a GB Rom and it doesn't give me this issue, i don't want to use the GB rom either cos its not as smooth running as the sense rom and also i like my trackball notifications.
Any ideas guys? I tried uninstalling and re installing, no luck. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
I just tried on xtrSENSE; it took a while to refresh, and I did get one "tap to retry" message, but it did finally load.
You can try uninstalling and reinstalling the app, or try the app Friendcaster and see if that works (though it does have ads...)

Thanks for the reply Doogald, Its just weird, i tried uninstalling and reinstalling, even tried clearing the dalvik, and wiping the data and reinstalling the xtrSENSE zip but i still have the same issue. Not sure whats going on. I'm not a fan of the friendcaster app, so i ended up installing Nonsensikal_v161_vanilla Froyo. Its working now, but i miss the whole Sense look. Also how can i get the trackball LED notifications to work?

My dusty recollection is that there is a way. I'm traveling at the moment but will be back home this weekend. If I can dig out the method I'll pass it along.
Thanks for your help, if you can pass that info along that would be great. Happy thanks giving!

First - it's been well over 18 months since I tried Nonsensikal - but what happens when you go to settings/cyanogen settings/user interface/led notifications. Is that one of the settings? Can you change some of them to color white to see if that activates trackball notifications?

Awesome. Well, if that didn't work I was going to suggest a Gingerbread ROM next.

Pandora app crashing seconds after it opens.

Hey all, I seem to be having an issue with the Pandora app. It is an app I use heavily, which it crashing is driving me bonkers.
Here's what happens. I open the app and it stays open until it starts to play/load music. The moment the artist information shows up the app closes itself. I had flashed the debloat script and rooted the phone. Then I disabled swap and of course, installed all my apps. Later I noticed the Pandora app crashing problem. I figured it was probably something the debloat script removed that I might have needed so I recovered to stock and only restored root. Low and behold, Pandora worked fine. I spent an hour or two listening and reading a book. I paused it so I could prepare for bed and when I hit play, it crashed again. Tried rebooting the phone, clearing the apps cache/data and reinstalling. Nothing seems to work. The app is set as a protected app in the settings. Also, I have the KIW-L24(USA) model.
tldr: Read the title
Hoping someone has some hints they could throw my way. It seems curious that the app would work for a few hours then only stop working after I paused and then hit play again. If anyone has any advice, please shoot it my way.
What software build do you have? This issue was previously reported, but it should be fixed by now. Also, what version is the Pandora app?

Build number: KIW-L24C567B140
Pandora: version 6.9.2 (I have Pandora One, just in the off chance that would matter?)
I just cleared the app cache, deleted the app data, uninstalled, then booted into twrp, cleared the dalvik cache and rebooted (as I stated in the first post, I had done this all before). It now seems to be working. If it begins to crash a third time, I'll update.
And it started crashing again. I may have found the culprit. Everything was kosher until I allowed notifications. When I did the app crashed, with near instant crashes there on. Shut off notifications for Pandora in settings and it works like a charm.
Edit: I can repeat this issue by enabling/disabling notifications. A bit annoying, bit at least the app works.

Google Play shows 6.9.2 as up to date. If you could explain how to download Pandora 7.0, I will try it out.

I'm using an unofficial build uploaded by bandit development. It works fine and everything runs very smoothly. The only things that don't work are the fingerprint reader, the back camera, and the back flash.

Honor 7 PLK-UL00 Recent apps not showing.

I am using latest EMUI version 4.0 in Honor 7 (PLK-UL00C675B351). It's recently used apps button when touched, is not showing anything, rather it turns my wallpaper black for a second and then restores. I have recorded my screen to show the exact problem being faced by me (thanks to new screen recording feature given in EMUI 4.0). I am not able to provide the link to the screen recording due to being a new member in xda.
Due to this I am unable to switch between apps and also not able to stop the unwanted apps that keep on running. Please tell me how to fix this problem. Thanks in advance.

Did you try a factory reset after backing up your apps and data using hisuite app?
You can restore the backup later and check if the problem still persists?

I have a faced this problem too. I solved it by uninstalling the latest installed apps one by one. In my case seven adclear was probably causing this issue. You can try it too. Uninstalling is less pain than an entire reset.

Hi, I had tried each and everything for it. From factory reset to manual updating to existing EMUI version. Nothing solved that problem.
Few days back I was lying on my bed, exploring some unknown features. I came through the 'Floating Dock'. This thing actually solved my issue. This floating icon on home screen has a button which clears all apps consuming power and takes the phone to optimal level. After using it, my recent app widget issue is not creating that problem. I am happy now. Thanks for your help too.

I used the app clear feature from the floating dock on home screen, After this, that problem has stopped. Thanks for your help too, may be used in future if the thing reports back.

Yes there is. Make sure you have updated to the latest ROM (EU is B380)
1 - Backup all your stuff with Huawei native app
2 - Factory reset and let it boot
3 - Setup your google account and nothing more. Also don´t restore any apps yet.
4 - Test incoming calls when screen is off.
5 - Setup Huawei account
7 - Install Skype and it will restore itself call and chat history
8 - Test Skype (I have problems with it but I have 2 additional devices with the same account at the same time that rings at the same time so it might be just me)
9- Install fresh remaining communications apps like Whatsapp. From my experience when you restore from backup they will bug the notifications, so it´s better a fresh install while just restoring the chat history from backup.
10 - Setup maximum priority for communication apps notification
11 - If you feel it´s necessary you can also set those apps not to be closed and be automatically launched at startup.

No,
just open Telephon Manager
Enable Notification Manager and then check the config
you also have to allow the apps in autostart manager
and protect them

So there is no solution, just to wait and hope they will fix it. And how about rooting and putting some other ROM? Is there any stable ROM for PLK-TL01H?

It's probably cuz these are third party apps
It's from Play Store.
I also tried with b170 and b360 update. I dont have the notification problem in my Honor 7 Indian Version..
Most notification problems comes from restoring those apps from backup.
If you just install a fresh app after factory reset and then ONLY restore app history (if needed as Skype doesnt need) you shouldnt get any notification problem.
Well phone is new, there is no any backup. I tried factory reset, same problem. I am waiting 14 days for huawei unlock code, i will root phone and then move apps from data/app to system/app, that should solve the problem. I am on EMUI 4.0.1 so that's all with marshmallow, everything else is working ok.

Google Feed - Blank

Hi,
My Google Feed is blank unless I go into settings and come back out without changing anything. I've flicked between Feed Enabled and Feed Disabled but still nothing.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue on a BLA-L29 129 firmware?
Thank you.
did you try to delete the data of "google" app in the settings?
it happened to me and this resolved it

So far so good, thank you
I have tried deleting the data and restarting but I still have a blank page. The only way I can get it to work is by opening the google app in the play store....it is very strange
When you are on the google Now Site (blank) then give the command "ok google" - what happened then? In my case - then the results appear. This was the issue with the firmware BLA-L29 C432 129. BLA L29 C432 131 it startet with normal working. And finaly with BLA-L29 C432 137 first weeks same issue. No content on the site till "ok google" and since 2 Weeks everything is working well. I don't change anything in settings - one day doesnt work without ok google - next day works like expected.
the issue has returned for me. I am on BLA-L29 C432 129.

I have auto updates turned off permanently, but I selected update all by mistake, which caused the issue, at first thought it was something else, so went through clearing the data and cache.

Having the same issue here-tried following the steps to clear the data but to no avail. Yet another Huawei app problem. My BBC news widget fails to update constantly too.
Same problem here, when you open your feed click on the search bar and then on any free soave on the screen. It should come back for a bit. Very annoying

Problem with HUAWEI device
