Hello everyone, I have a few issues on my device and would like your opinions on them:
1 - Whenever i get a persistent notification like "Music player (with buttons to play etc.)" or "You're in a call with John <timer>" these kind of notifications, if i press the home button while in the respective app for the notification, the notification sound goes on as if i received a notification. like the notification is already there, but when i click the home button the notification sound "rings" idk why... if you guys go to the music player (any one, i tried like 5 already) and play any song and click the home button to go out of the player, do you get the notification sound? (also happens in calls, messages,whatsapp,etc)
2 - Games on my device use abnormal amounts of data, like Rules Of Survival, it used to consume 5 mb per match or so, now after i updated to B133, it used 13 GB for 2 matches, thats 7.5GB per match (it used only 5 mb before), my friend has the Galaxy s8+ and there it works fine but not on my huawei?
so now i kinda avoid playing any music on my phone, since any press on the home button will make the notification sound go on couple of times on max volume. I also avoid playing games, since the data consumed is very abnormal. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game but it still behaves in the same way, regardless of whether im using data or wifi too. could it be software related?
System info:
Huawei mate 10 pro, C185, 8.00.133 is the firmware i have installed, it didn't ship with it, i updated to it a few days ago.
My questions are:
Do you guys face these issues? or is it just me?
Is it okay if i flash another C*** firmware onto my device? or will that cause problems?
Do you think its a software issue and flashing would fix it?
any advice?

Don't have these issues ... But I don't use a notification sound.
you must have high speed wifi if u download 7.5gig in one match. Thats so weird... I don't know what it downloads. Maybe you can share some screenshots.
Rebranding your device is actually kinda risky if you don't know what your doing. I don't think this should be a reason to do so anyways
The only thing I experience sometimes is that WhatsApp message banners sometimes appear twice for the same message when I didn't read it yet. But no vibration, no sound and nothing connected to the home button

thanks for the reply alfred! can i ask what firmware are you on exactly?
another question please, would downgrading to a previous firmware version (same region) cause any issues?
thanks!
Bla L29 c432 138 (basically same as 137)
I am not sure if u didn't have this issue before updating I guess yes.
Anyways before doing something crazy contact Huawei... Their customer service is usually decent. They should fix it u paid them enough money... If you mess around with firmware you only end up voiding warranty
Please help.. How to do auto settings for page trandlation
Hello,
Please help and advise me on settings such that a page opened in any language is automatically translated to English language which is the default language set On my Huawei Mate 10 Pro. I am unable to resolve this and any help will be hugely appreciated. Thank you.
I got the same trouble with volume set.

Hello, for the past few weeks i've been using cm 7.1 on my i9100 and I'd be glad to say that the rom is perfect, if some issues didn't come up. Firstly, since the first day of use, i've realized that the sound volume (both from speaker and headset) is fairly low compared to samsung's rom (to be frank going above 50-60% in volume options doesn't make a difference). Is there any solution to this? CM 9 apart from the "known issues" got that bug too?
The second problem came up a few days ago and it's related to the android market app. Everytime you scroll through an app's details, the phone freezes and the only way to restore it, is to turn it off and on again. Currently, i'm using app brain which doesn't seem to have that problem, but i really love google's app. So, any solution to that?
Try the app in my sig to give the headset/headphone volume a boost, works really well & only distorts the volume at very high levels (>75% which you shouldn't need). There are apps on the Market which can boost the speaker volume, not sure how well these work as I haven't tried any.
So far as the Market is concerned, I use a CM based rom and have had that problem as well. The only fix I've come across/read about is to restore a much earlier version of the market (hopefully someone else reads this thread and has a fix that can help both of us ). I haven't done this myself as I've trained myself to do all my scrolling thru app details on my PC first & simply do the install/update on my phone without scrolling thru the details , but I'm sure a search on here should dig up something/the apk you need.
Ask in the right place may get an answer quicker .

Hello,
I have a problem with my phone. I cant set any ringtone to it. Whether its MP3, or from system ringtones, it always plays "its" own ringtone.
I got phone only yesterday and upgraded it from 2.3 to 4.0 (official upgrade) Everything wen fine.
I dont know what do with it, i looked through apps, if something doesnt have to do with it, but i think not.
Do you see any solution? Is there app that sets ringtones?
Thank you very much for help
RE:
there are a lot of ways by which your problem can be resolved,
but unfortunately, almost all of them involve rooting (which voids warranty).
I'd recommend talking to the customer care (as you only purchased the phone yesterday)
or try to find if your phone allows you to revert back to your original android version.
[also try this: go to the music player, hold on a song till the options appear, then select "set as ringtone". that might work]
Cheers
[Thumbs up if it works for you]
Hello and thank you for your reply!
Yesterday i was too eager to wait patiently for responses of people here on forum, so i tried to resolve the problem.
I tried as you said set ringtone through music player - it worked for few minutes, but after that it changed back to default ringtone.
But after 4 factory data resets i got to know where the problem was :laugh:
Everything was OK until i loaded backup from huawei app -> then the ringtone started making problems.
So after 4th reset i didnt load backup and everything is working fine. Might help other people with this sort of problem.
Anyway, i dont know why it was happening, because after i noticed its happening after i load backup, i didnt load system settings -> just contacts and SMS' and still there was problem. Weird, but fortunately everything is fine now.

Hi,
This is my first time specifically posting a question as a Q&A style thread so I hope I'm doing this right.
I have been using the Redmi Note 2 for about a month now. Overall, it's been a great phone (especially considering the price). However, I've been experiencing a couple of issues and I am hoping that some of you may be able to help.
I have rooted the phone but have not installed a ROM/kernel.
I have been using Wakelock Detector to track my battery life. Of most significance is com.baidu.map.location (NetworkLocation). I have attached the two screenshots showing the frequency of how often it wakes up my device. I tried to greenify it but it wouldn't allow me - it says "Sorry, "NetworkLocation" is ingreenifiable". Does anyone have any idea for me?
I have also been trying to use Amplify as another means to try and improve battery life. As mentioned, my phone is rooted, and the app prompted me to install the Xposed app which I did. However, after installing the app, it wants me to install the framework but it does not allow me to. I have attached the screenshot of this too.
Nova Launcher - Sometimes when I open the app drawer, the resolution of the app launcher appears funny. To fix it, I normally just press back and go back into the app drawer and it goes back to normal. I have attached a screenshot of what this roughly looks like. This is not a big deal but can be a little annoying. Has anyone experienced this?
SD Maid - I used to use this app on my old Galaxy S3 i9305 to clear out storage space taken up by unnecessary stuff. This app no longer works on this phone. I have attached a screenshot of the issue that I am having.
I have downloaded Auto Call Recorder from the app store with the intention of having it automatically record my phone conversations. It does not work but I am unable to figure out why. I have checked the settings and I cannot identify any obvious setting that is incorrectly configured.
Flynx - I have been trying to use Flynx as it appears to be an incredibly useful app, but it seems something is not working correctly. In the screenshot that I have attached, where it says "Tap on the bubble to open it!" I am assuming there is a bubble that is supposed to appear for me to tap, but it does not appear.
APUS Launcher/Clean Master - finally and maybe most worryingly, I sometimes get 2 or 3 apps "pushed" to my device prompting me to install it. I can only remember 2 at the moment; APUS Launcher and Clean Master. Fortunately, I am asked to give the app permission for installation but it worries me because it has occurred a few times and I did not download it at all. I do not have a screenshot of this at the moment, but I will do it next time it occurs.
I have been told that my provider (Vaya in Australia) sends out a SMS for "automatic update" purposes. I only spotted this because I have noticed that I was charged for 2 separate international SMS on 2 occasions when I did not send them (to a UK number, +44 7786209730). I am not sure whether this one is a phone problem or something else.
I appreciate any of your assistance in advance and I am sorry if I have not provided enough information. I am also not sure as to which issues may simply be app problems as opposed to a problem with MIUI software or Xiaomi.
Hope I will be able to get some assistance!

Does the crash happen when the dialog opens, or when you click the orange entry?
Try giving your sdcard a name, possibly doing it from a desktop computer.
Hi, the crash happens when I click on "Overview" then click on "To start press [refresh icon]" and then you just press there - what normally happens is it will give a overall summary of the phone.
However, I have just tried it again. When that error message comes up, instead of tapping on the listed entry (as is instructed), I press "Done" and it is able to give me a summary!
So for some reason it appears as though it doesn't work (at least from the error message), and I just press done and it still works.
Thanks for your reply nevertheless! Would not have figured that out had you not replied hahaha.
If you just press "done", SD Maid won't have access to your external sdcard.
Did you try installing the Xiaomi EU rom, since it's supposed to be cleaned from chinese apps (Like the baidu one).
Hi all,
Sorry it seems like I never came back to expand what I have done to try and fix these problems.
I ended up changing to Hermes ROM here http://www.smiui.net/redminote2_hermes.php
Most of the issues above are now solved, but there are some that are still present such as #2 and #5. So Amplify still doesn't work, but I think this is a hardware limitation and Auto Call Recorder still doesn't work. As for why Auto Call Recorder doesn't work, I don't know why, but I am not greatly bothered by it so I have not attempted to do anything to resolve that problem.
Hi,
I recently bought a Honor 5X, great smartphone, low price, fast & all, really happy with it.
I'm stuck with a very simple problem, while WhatsApp works as intended, it is not possible to change the default notification sound. No matter what, WhatsApp will play a default mp3 placed on the media directory (Jive_Cool.mp3, not even the 1st file, go figure...) which is like 3 minutes long and loud as f***!
I tried deinstalling the app and reinstalling it, chose various notification sounds in case the one I like was corrupted, no way I can change it.
Anybody facing the same issue? any hints?
Thanks
I temporarily "fixed" this by putting a short "notification" mp3 in storage/media/audio/notifications and choosing it on WhatsApp. Others sounds (the ones the rom has by default) that I can choose in the notification combo would not be played on notification.
Hi, I do have the exact same problem with my brand new Honor 8. Anyone who know what to do?

It was solved by restarting the phone... This is for sure something that is different to other vendors.
I have created a separate thread because the previous one for Android 12 has already become too long to continue posting about the news and bugs of the new update that came out today: 61.1.A.2.211
Please report any news and if the bugs that were already known have been fixed. Thank you!
Serious bug carried over - If you lock the screen while running an app that has permission to keep the screen on, the phone will randomly unlock without authentication. It may be triggered by motion, a screen tap, or by itself. The app doesn't even need to ask to keep the screen on. Bug seems to only happen when Ambient Display is completely off.
Thnkyu for the Help awesome job well-done

Have you updated or installed from scratch with Xperia Companion?
F****** SONY Xperia China Team！！
the first released price of Xperia1 III in China is from CNY￥8499(INC. VAT)，that's USD$1339!!!
but the Chinese Xperia 1 III/xq-bc72 is still on Android 11（61.0.A.23.20）today while others xperia 1 III gets the second Android 12 update！！
sorry，i'm so sad。。。
After the update to "61.1.A.2.211" I cannot make a phone call lasting 1 minute. Usually the phone call drops in 10 seconds.
Telephone operator = TIM Italy
Turned off and on again, the phone has resumed working properly
I'm currently running 61.1.A.1.149 RU variant on XQ-BC72. The phone crashes everytime I use Android Auto / Google Maps. I tried different head units. The map runs, however it doesn't update the turn by turn notifications, and after unplugging the USB cable, phone crashes.
I started from a clean 61.1.A.2.211 "repair" XQ-BC52
I had a crash in sony camera app that occurred in a most needed moment, the app got stuck for a while completely unresponsive and after a few seconds restarted. Didn't happen again.
A.2.211 is not yet available for XQ-BC72 yet. Once it's out, I will have a clean install for sure.

For now, the only problem that I have found with this update is when I connect my bluetooth headset (WH-1000MX4) there are no notifications or sound of the messages to the headset or the phone. The Google Assistant does not work from the headphones either (and I have already done a repair with the Xperia Companion from scratch and in the headphones app too).
even after this update i still experience some bugs that came with android 12 - that drive me nuts. the worst has to do with the notification bar: sometimes the first swipe down after receiving a notification pulls the quick menu down all the way and not half way. that happens mostly after unlocking the device. another problem has to do with the youtube-app. when playing a video and scrolling through comments or other video suggestions at the same time, the scrollling begings to stutter. when no video is playing, scrolling is absolutely smooth. can anybody confirm - or even better, are there any solutions? thank you for your help

thank you. that is so strange. i even did a software repair via sony companion - and the bug still exists...
Yes, i know what you mean. I have it too. Though, i never have the 120 hz mode on.
I also have the 5 III so im used to the better battery life thats why.
I think closing the youtube app and reopening it fixes that
Another to the list (reported in the Sony community too):
Google Photo APP won't play videos.
Trying to open any 4K or HDR video with Google Photos (the default app gallery) makes the app to freeze, and then you can not play any type of video. Solved only by restarting the phone.
