[Q] What happened to my sync menu? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm confused. My sync menu was completely normal before, and now when I just looked at it, it looks like this. Does anyone have any idea what happened or how to fix it? There are no longer ticks on the side of the screen to stop syncing.
UPDATE: I fixed the problem myself. If you go into settings->data usage->menu and tick the "Auto-sync Data" it fixes it.

notification left softkey menu blinking problem - help?

Just wondering if anybody has ever had this problem and if there is a fix. I suspect it might be due to installing quickmenu because it didnt do this before. Anyway the left soft key menu button blinks when i receive a notification.. blinks from contacts to the notification over and over until i check the email/text/voicemail. any solutions? thanks.
nevermind i found a solution. just like i suspected, it was quick menu's fault. i had the show on every titlebar option checked for the battery status. i unchecked it and now everthing works properly
THANKS!
Thanks man! I went crazy with that! I even did a hard reset to see if i could fix it. I even uninstalled lots of programs. How did you realise that it was that??? Thanks again!

Appointment reminder bubble not showing after softreset

Hello all,
I dug into a few WinMo boards, including this one, but couldn't come close to what keeps bugging me. I think I'll give it a try, so mods please accept apologies if this is a repost or if this has been asked before.
I heavily rely on my calendar to remind me of all the stuff I need to remember. In the "sounds & notifications" options, I've set the reminders to play some wav, to vibrate the phone and to display a notification bubble.
The issue is the following: sound & vibrate work fine, but as soon as I perform a soft-reset, the notification bubbles don't show anymore, even if the "display message" option is checked in the settings. I get the little bell icon in the top bar, and from there I can click on it in the HTC action screen to open the bubble, but it doesn't pop up automatically unless I go back to the settings, uncheck the option and save, then go again in the settings, check the option and save.
I tried to clean up the notification queue with SKTools, but it didn't changed anything. I'm pretty sure this bug wasn't present when I bought the phone, about 4 months ago. Is there any tweak or reg hack that would help me circumvent this very nasty annoyance, or should I hopelessly head for an hard-reset ?
Thanks in advance for any help one can bring.
I have the same issue - be interested to hear of any fix.
Me too, also same problem on touch pro.

I get this as well, very irritating
Me too ! This is a very irritating problem, no fix found
anywhere on the Internet
Same here. Its a terrible bug that has plagued Touchflo 3D since the Diamond...
Isn't there a third party app that shows announcements to fix this TF3D issue?
It isn't a tf3d issue, I run a ROM wihtout tf3d and it still occurs. Works fine for a while and then the display bubble stops popping up.
I've tried galarm as a third party alarm solution but this must rely on the system popup to give it focus because the same thing happens.
Very irritating, affects me when my wakeup alarm goes off and I have to mess around for ages to get it to cease.
Are you using wktask ? If so, it is being hidden by it. In your preference under the first tab, check the option for hide the task list when there is no task.

No, although I have used it in the past and it is a very good task manager. Seems to be the settings under sounds & notifications for reminders which revert to unticked "display on screen". I tick it again and it is OK for a few days then it "unticks" itself. Weird. I am using Wisbar Advance Desktop 2 but I can't see that this should affect it.
Its not a wktask or wisbar issue as im not running either of those...
Same problem here.
Has someone found a solution?

I have the same problem - what's the fix???
same problem here
other problems with bubble...
Hi,
I'm having the same problem as above on my Touch Pro 2, but also, if the reminder includes a '&' it shows as a '_' in the bubble. A bit of an ASCII problem maybe?
If HTC is watching, the reminder bubble integration into TF3D has gained us problems and removed the ability to snooze the alarm... not really an improvement.
Problem I have, is that if HTC supply a fix at the ROM level (as with the GPS and SMS fixes) Vodafone won't take it up for months, if ever.
Cheers

I have figured it out the Alarm & calendar notifications issue. These settings will display Alarm & calendar notifications on screen with out clicking the little bell on top of the screen all the time.
Go to Menu --> settings --> Sounds & Notifications under “Personal” tab --> select “Events” under Sounds tab then --> go to “Notifications” tab --> select “Reminders” option from drop-down list for Event field --> Select “Display message on screen” and then click OK on top of the window.
You can select other number of options from drop-down menu to display the notifications.
Hope this will solve most people’s notification issue.

Opening account choosing menu in gmail causes the menu to flash and disappear

Hey guys.
So, if I try and choose an account in gmail, the menu quickly appears and disappears. If I click where the account is that I wanted, it opens. It;s like the menu just disappears... but is still there.
I am running the navbar removal mod and LMT. I know one of them is probably causing this, but can anyone think of a fix beside checking off "Disable Hardware overlays" in the developer settings?
I am on stock 4.1.2 and rooted.
Thanks for any ideas

Notification Problem

Hello Everybody
My P8 Lite Don't give me notification unless i open apps like whatsapp and viber and i marked show notification for them
any help please
You said, you've got the notification enabled for those apps, so there's only one thing that can cause problem, like this.
Go to your Settings > Power saving, then scroll down, and check the Protected apps menu.
Checked means it can run even if the screen is off.
Report back if it's worked for you, please.

Thx Man It Works For Me
I have whatsapp checked and I dont recieve the notifications, it is sudden.. I have to reset the phone.
It works fine and suddenly stops.
thks
same as @manuz89, if i reboot the phone it works but a few minutes later its bad again
i already have "normal" preset in battery settings, whatsapp its protected and all notification toggles are ON
im clearing cache right now and if it dont work i'll factory reset the phone
All other apps works properly, I think is a compatibility problem between Whatsapp and P8lite. Don't think factory reset will work
Before this phone, I had a S3 Mini, and that phone also had notification issues with WhatsApp...Maybe it's the app, not the phone
kitkat was fine, its the lollipop version with the problem.
But does this happen to everyone? Do you think someone will have an answer soon or we should just go back to kitkat.?
Thks
try changing your power mode to Normal, in case Smart is turning off a connection somewhere
Notification problem
I have the same problem - no notifications for whatsapp. All settings are correct. I.e. Notifications is allowed, power saving is normal, Whatsapp is protected. What else can I try? If I reset to factory will it delete all my photos etc?

No need factory reset. Anyway notifications of Viber(may be Whatsapp) do not work on this phone. You can easy resolve this bug with Light Flow - LED&Notifications. I use this method and work great!
unfortunately that app is not free. is there any other solutions. i did all those mentioned above including locking the app in the recent app tray. still, the problem persists. previously i used a xiaomi phone, it still had notifications although delayed for minutes
hi
just go to setting/screen lock& passwords/ screen lock style / and change it to default(magazine).
then you will see ( notification panel &notification turn on screen......) it will save the problem.
note : after you can change your lock screen picture and choose from your gallery.
Solved
Hello.
I had the same problem with whatsapp. After many research, i think i have found the solution:
Enable background data for Google Play Services app and allow notifications as well for this app.
(PS This solutions is mentioned also in the FAQ from whatsapp )))))) .. that simple
It worked for me.. try

I KEEP losing my "clear all" recent apps (search bar too) - Is there a permanent fix?

I KEEP losing my "clear all" recent apps (search bar too) - Is there a permanent fix?
My clear-all recents [X] keeps disappearing.....It starts with the search bar disappearing in the recents screen, then shortly thereafter, the [X] disappears.
I know there's a temporary fix for this by booting into safe mode and re-starting (and I've done this each time)... But after 5 times in less than 4 weeks, this is getting old having to re-setup defaults, widgets, and Dropbox (a few other things too).
Does anybody know what is causing this or if there is a permanent fix I've overlooked?
I had faced this issue once.... The only way recovered is reset the phone.. i know its very annoying but i could not find any other way. May be you can speak with Oneplus customer support and see if they have any fix.
I'm also facing same issue but don't think so that there is any permanent fix for this. Maybe a future OTA update will fix it. Till the time you if you want the "clear all" button and If you are rooted than you can use Gravity box.
Same thing happened to me as well. I did something different.
Just stopped clearing app and let android do the lmk, as needed.
This just happened to me. After installing the latest update to the Google app and rebooting the phone, the search bar and clear all button in the recent apps panel were gone.
Incredibly how buggy OOS is ... I thought leaving Huawei was a good idea ...
UPDATE: Fixed it by rebooting into safe mode and then rebooting "normally" again, though I had to set up all my accounts again after that.
