Notification re appears after dismissing. - LG G6 Questions and Answers

Hi,
My q6 is running on Android 7.1 with Nova prime..
I usually dismiss unimportant notification right from notification list. However they come back about 10 mins after unless I go into the app and view them myself. This is very common with messaging and Gmail app. The Outlook and other third party apps seems to be less affected in this way...
Please help
Thanks

How did you get 7.1? All of us are on 7.0 and LG doesn't usually do minor upgrades.

Hi,
Am located in India and it indeed runs on Android 7.1.1 with December security patch.. but the issue that I highlighted is not something new.
My friend has a G6 on Android 7.0 and he is not having this problem.

He Has Q6... not G6... and the q6 runs 7.1

Missing changelog pulldown on update screen in playstore

The title says it all. Am I the only one that lost the the changelog pulldown on the update screen in the playstore? I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere. It was one of the best additions with true time saving functionality to the playstore IMHO. I haven't had it in some time. Deep down I was hoping that it would magically reappear.

If you mean the "recently updated" section? it is still there for me. You may want to update your Store app, the new one has "play protect" and I don't see that on your screenshot. My version (not beta) v8.1.73.S-all [0] [FP] 165518514
EDIT: just noticed in your sig you are still on 7.1.1? ha ha I also have the N7 Flo, running LOS 14.1 current weekly.
Thanks for the reply. And yes I haven't updated since i got received a new phone from huawei due to the bootloop of death.... I figured I would wait for the bugs to get worked out of oreo and start there! My playstore app is current at 8.1.73. The picture is dated but it shows the pull down dialog that I am asking about. It allows you to see the changelog without having to open up the individual app page. Please don't criticize my excellent MS paint skills.....

LOL. 8.0 is the bug fix for 7.1.2. Smooth sailing here with 8 on several devices. Did not really appreciate what you were talking about before, but then I have never pre-inspected the changelog.... just auto update everything without looking first. If one app is of interest I read the changelog as its downloading, but that's rare. If I were you I would install 8.0 and not look back.... after all why did you buy a Nexus device, if not for anything but security updates which this month in particular is very important in light of the wireless 'BlueBorne' attacks. Best of luck to you.

Android Wear 2.5

My Huawei watch suddenly rebooted itself and I was wondering what on earth happened. Then I went to settings and noticed the OS was updated to Android Wear 2.5.0.172604017.
Anybody else having this, and which device?
Does anybody know any change logs?

My build number is N7G75S and my Android Wear version is the same as yours, but I haven't had an update since getting 2.0. My security patch level is April, but some people have been getting the October security update. I don't know if that changes the version number or not.
yeah got 2.5 too on my zenwatch...android wear is a joke....a really bad one
I got 2.5 on my Watch Urbane 1G.
I bought yesterday my 1st smartwatch Fossil Q Explorist 3. After turning on it rebooted often and now I'm also on 2.5.0.172604017

I see that my zenwatch 3 also has android wear 2.5 but
I did not get any updates for it since October 18th.
The last time android wear was updated was Oct.18
The strange thing is that even though my watch has
the 2.5 version installed my S7 Edge phone still has
the 2.0 version installed.
I downloaded the Android Wear 2.5 apk from apk
mirror but it would not install in my phone.
It errors out saying "There was a problem parsing the package".
I tried downloading the 2.5 version from two other sources on
the internet but both had the same error results.
Has anyone checked their Android Wear version which is
installed in the phone to see if anyone has version 2.5
installed in the phone?
Thanks, have a great day!

its 2.0 for me too, are they both always the same?

That's what I was wondering too, the 2.0 Android Wear at the playstore
does have a "what's new" information like all the playstore apps have
but it does not mention anything about android wear 2.5 at all.
I cannot think of any reason why there is a different version in the watch
but not in the phone.
Even when I google searched the web I found only two or three
links which had anything to do with android wear 2.5 and had
hardly any useful information about it and none of the sites even
mentioned anything as to why there are different versions on the
phone and on the watch.
.
Good luck, have a great day!
my Huawei watch did the shutdown update thing to 2.5 the other day. Now I'm having issues getting notifications to pass from my phone to my watch.
Is there any way to roll back to 2.0???

Same issue on my updated Moto 360 Sport. I'm pretty sure the issue was caused by the 2.5 update, sucks lol.

Go to Android Wear settings in your phone and set all permissions on. Restart phone and watch.
That does not work

Please quote the message you are replying to.
If you are talking about notifications, they must be enabled on Android Wear app on the phone.
I have no problems at all with Android Wear 2.6 on both watch and phone.
Yesterday I noticed that notifications did not show on the watch (Huawei). So I unpaired the watch and cleared data and cache from both Google Play Services and Android Wear. After that everything OK again.
My version on the Huawei Watch2 shows 2.6.0.176354550 Dated august security patch on 7.1.1
Just got an update on my Ticwatch S to Wear 2.7.0.178645119. not experiencing any obvious changes yet.

I got update to 2.7 on Huawei Watch, too. The app selector has larger icons and font.
Quite frequent updates lately. Sad that no updates to Oreo scheduled, though.

Google Phone no longer in Playstore

Does anyone know why Phone disappeared in the Playstore? I can no longer even see it listed under my installed apps in the Playstore. I had disabled one update before, because the screen wouldn't turn on while on Bluetooth. The phone was listed under available updates for a while and recently just disappeared. At first I thought it was because I installed Gcam with camera2 API and HAL3, but the phone is not rooted, and bootloader is locked.

It did update the phone app, but frequently I got the error "Google has stopped" so uninstalled it, which means that the app I have now is even older version than 16. I had earlier. It doesn't update now. Perhaps February update may bring some changes,
Regards
I think compatibility was removed from the Mi A1 as they were receiving many 1 star reviews on the app by people from India. Many users are complaining about issues related to the Jio network which are not being experienced by users from other countries.
IjazCI said:
Thats strange. I never got any error messages. Absolutely zero errors. Also updated Google Play Services to latest stable ( 948 ) version on apkmirror as our device has 448 version by default.
I lost my patience , unlocked bootloader, temporary booted to twrp and flashed the 3rd February beta by sooti earlier today. :victory: lol. ( Camera tooks a while to start after this, but that doesn't bother me. )
My device is pure stock with no modification other than the beta thing. Planning to update to stable February ota when fastboot rom is released. Or sooti bring the twrp twrp flashable rom ( whichever is earlier )
I don't know the issue others mentioning on the threads, for me this device is rock stable from the day i purchased it. No random reboot or application forcestop etc...
Regards
Edit - Camera lag is because of root. I didn't realise that. Anyway flashed the stock boot images by sooti on both partitions and the lag is gone.

To avoid camera lag and dialer app lag install magisk permission module

Thank you for the answer. I fixed the lag. Root is causing that lag so i unrooted the phone. This is one device i don't feel that i need root anymore.

Right but i can't live without root because Lucky patcher, xposed, and freedom are must have apps for me. OTA comes in more than a month so who cares when you can update through twrp and fastboot method without loosing data

You guys do know you can remove Duplicates via the Contacts app and the Phone app has nothing to do with it right?
That's not exactly the issue @joeyhuab.
What i'm facing is that isssue :
1) If i open contact app, there is no duplicate contact at all
2) if i go to the contact tab of the phone app, there is duplicate contacts (on line for each app that allow calls, for example if one of my contact is on whatsapp, duo and signal, i got 4 contacts line, one for standard call, one for whatsapp call, one for signal call and finally one for duo call)
That's pretty annoying and i didn't yet find any solution

You can merge the contacts by showing ALL CONTACTS in the Contacts app then merging them all.

Again, that's not working.
In the contacts App, there is no duplicate contact at all ... even when i choose to show ALL CONTACTS...
The issue is only in the contact tab of the Dialer app ... and there is no option in Dialer app to merge, nor to filter view

Welp. I don't have duplicate contacts on the contacts tab of the Phone app. Weird issue.
Phone app v17 was working fine until i changed to new beta rom and now its not available in play store so i downloaded latest apk from apkmirror and now this message appears when i app phone app " This device is not supported and phone calls may not work correctly" ??
Update: So i changed my phones build prop with some pixel 2 xl build props and restarted device and now Phone App is visible in play store and supported. Everything working fine
I've posted this on Xiaomi's forums, just in case... http://en.miui.com/thread-1833415-1-1.html (could not find existing thread for that).
Also discussed here:

Latest ATT Update (March '18) - new Messaging/Gallery apps?

Did anyone get the latest security update yet from AT&T?
Looks like it was security patches, but my Messaging and Gallery apps changed.
I am OK with the gallery app, and the Messaging app is OK with the exception the text is pretty damn small! I know you can pinch to zoom, but I am unable to find anyway to keep the ZOOM setting I selected in the new Messaging app, as soon as I back out and go back to a person I was chatting with, the text is back to being small.
Just confirming I'm not the only one with this issue.
Chris
Oh, believe me, you are not alone. Mine is doing the same thing. It is also showing replies to texts in white text boxes with white type. I had to switch my purchased themes 4 times to find one that didn't do this! I also lost the ability to schedule messages, and lost all of my quick responses! This is VERY annoying.
Krista
Ditto here, white text on white background for incoming texts. Exceptionally annoying.
A few people have complained on the AT&T support forums (https://forums.att.com/t5/Samsung-Discussion-Support/Text-bubble-issue/m-p/5452599/thread-id/35765), but it seems the forum moderators are going thru and deleting threads and replies. And so far, the only "answer" wasn't an answer at all, just a canned response pointing to a tutorial (that wasn't there last night, btw) on how to change messaging settings.
If anyone has any ideas, please let us know.
Using pulse for messaging. And sungstratum for theming. It's a part of substratum. No root.

I don't understand what you mean, please explain.
It's another SMS app, you can download it on the playstore.
Thanks everyone for confirming it wasn't just me. It's a shame because the stock txting app wasn't pretty bad for the past ~2 years....here's hoping AT&T steps up, otherwise I will go third party too...
Pulse is awesome. I have the paid subscription and can access my txts from any device.
First, new "update" fubared text messaging; now, there's something running in the background that's turning it into a hotplate & sucking the battery down in just a couple hours, instead of decent consumption all day long. Even after a reboot & running the "save battery" app in Settings, it's still warm to the touch, & draining the battery too quickly.
Does AT&T have plans to fix this, or is this a push to force an upgrade? (this I put to them on their forum)
SAMSUNG-SM-G891A
Android. 7.0
Patch level January 1, 2018 (so no shenanigans about "security enhancements" in this one, they ain't there)
There were betas for these updates for several months now. There must have been some big changes under the hood and this one came as a 500MB update rather than a 35MB security patch. Probably stuck with any bugs until the next major update which will most likely be Oreo. All of this is just speculation on my part.
I didn't receive any notification on my S7 Active regarding BETAs - how do you sign up for those? I would have gladly given feedback on this Messaging app....
They don't have a beta program open to the public as far as I know. Over on the firmware update thread, user khaliullov posts a link to firmware and uncovered a way to directly download firmware from ATT's servers. That's where I've seen betas for this update for the past few months. You don't want to have those betas installed as they offer no upgrade path, so you would be stuck with the issues that whatever beta you used came with.
Got it - thanks for the info!
Looks like time to investigate rooting the phone...
Just got prompted for another update - let's see what this one does...

Same here, can't really see any difference in anything so far.
No difference here either, unfortunately. I was really hoping the Messages app would be updated. This new one SUCKS.
Is there anyone would could grab the old messaging app, make it a APK and then let us sideload it? I would be VERY interested in this, as would others.... this new Messaging app is junk!
The new messaging app is really weird, but all the features are there.... you hafta hit the + sign & the features come up. To schedule messages and more.
Could be worse, half your account could be stuck in Spanish. It's been well over a year and they still can't do anything about it. Lol.

"Can't reach Google at the moment..."

I get the same message from the last wear update 2.17 ... If I open wear app on phone and try , it works . It was perfctly working before the update. Seems like the wear app gets optomized from running in background even if you manually put it in the unoptimized list
The last wear update is great, my watch now feels 10 times faster ( old lg g watch with the 2.0 ported rom)

There is your problem.
2 things you can try.
1. UN optimize the app. This may take a couple tries. Going I'm and out of that section to make it stick.
2. Open Android wear all. And pin it open in recent so it never closes.
I had good luck with option 1
Oneplus has done something to optimization that messed with Android wear app. Had this issue with my op5t and did the above and it worked till I moved to a custom Rom
Amusing.
2 years later and i am in the same boat with Huawei P30Pro MIUI11.
What makes my situation different - i have two watches paired to the same phone and one of them is working perfectly FINE.
