Android Pie - Contact Card entries order - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

Hello all,
I used to have a OP5 running Android Oreo. I have recently received my OP6T and therefore switched to Android Pie. I use contact shortcuts in the launcher for my favorite contacts.
In Android Oreo it used to reorder the entries (telephone, whatsapp, email, telegram...) in the contact card based on what you use most. In Android Pie it does not do it anymore, and is annoying, as I must scroll down and expand options to send a whatsapp for example.
Have you guys the same behavior? Is it a Oneplus thing or related to Android Pie? I asked on the OnePlus forums with no luck.
Thanks in advance. Best regards.
Xavier.

No one is experiencing the same behaviour?
Thanks !

[Q] What sorts of notifications are shown on the watch?

Hey everyone!
I'm considering to purchase one of the watches currently out there. I may have overlooked this but I couldn't see it, what kinds of notifications are shown on the watch? I was thinking that it will only show notifications for apps that have an Android Wear app available.
So I want to know will it show notifications if I use a 3rd party messaging application that came with the manufacturer or will it only show Google+ hangouts notifications?
Thanks! :victory:

Multiple SMS Applications

Hello,
i own an OnePlus 2 which is rooted with the Exodus ROM with android 6.0 also the xposed Framework is installed.
At the Moment I try to use two SMS apps because i like some stuff in both but they both have disadvantages.
Is there any possibility to send SMS via both apps? Because everytime I try it I have to change the default messenger app.
I also try to change the permissions of the apps but it didn't help
have a nice day

Hi, what you are hoping to do cannot be possible since the system accepts one sms app at a time, it's deeply coded and works with the sms push and the network provider. so you can't have both sms apps corresponding to the same network, system or device. the option is just not available yet. you have to choice either way.
First of all thank you steps parku for the answer.
I solved it now with a tasker profile with the secure settings extension
If you start an other sms app tasker sets it on default.
Kind regards

[Whatsapp] Notifications only show the lastly received message

Hey everybody,
I guess it has sth. to do with moving to android 7.0 recently (but I'm not entirely sure it has occured on every tested rom since then); my whatsapp notification from lockscreen or drawn down status bar just shows the last received message from a contact, instead of summarizing them to, for example, "2 new messages".
And when drawing down the whatsapp line in notifications, these new messages would have been shown in particular; in my case, nothing happens.
I think you all get the point.
Gmail or other apps still function in the used manner.
This is quite annoying since you read sth completely out of context from someone, until you open the whatsapp chat just to find out he wrote you a novel before.
Thanks.
rly? could someone at least confirm the issue or whatever..
much appreciated!
WhatsApp needs to update to be fully compatible with Nougat, so is a WhatsApp issue not Nougat

Yes it's a known problem. Whatsapp needs to update this.
If you google whatsapp nougat you will find some more information about this problem.
Happening here too, Nougat has been out for quite a while now, this still happens even with WhatsApp Beta.

Notifications problems

Hi to everyone!
I have many friends that have Huawei smartphones and all them find out
the same problem with the notifications of some apks (Whatsapp and Telegram).
I have tried to set them like protected apk and look if others options
can block their notifications.
I have tried to install 3rd party apk to force notifications but it works
sometimes.
This problem came out when the smartphones have been upgraded
from Android 5.x to 6.0...from EMUI 3.x to EMUI 4.x
Someone said that the problem is the EMUI interface....with EMUI 5.x and Android 7
there is the same problem?
Have someone find out a definitive solution?
The Huawei have said something?
Have a nice day!
I had the same trouble with some application, the method that worked for me was this one : http://www.forbes.com/sites/bensin/...uawei-phone-heres-how-to-fix-it/#7c4eb3c78aa7
Also in the battery manafer, set the alim mode to "performance"
I have been same problem with push notifications and i find a way to resolve it. Applications with that issue must be locked in task manager.
If you can tweak that applications (gmail, whatapp, viber, skype, etc) to be "immune" at "close all" command of task manager
(with Lock symbol at upper right corner) that remain active when screen is off, even after restart the device.
With that applications locked, is not important if phone is in Smart/Performance mode or if an application is protected or not...
The trick is to lock a application in task manager. Somebody can try this solution and post result here...
From 2-3 weeks my device work properly regarding push notifications , tested from another phone any time, all notifications appear ok.
The real problem
Hi!
Thanks to everyone!
I have tried various solutions, but finding however an anomaly.
If arriving messages with Whatsapp or Telegram by direct contact all work,
if the message comes from a group the notifications will not come unless arrive a direct message.
Someone has encountered the same thing?
Have a nice day!
If its only group message, it may habe somethinf to do with the group being "Silent", check the group settings !

Thanks for your response.
I deliberately silenced some groups, others have notifications attived but them only comes when I open the application or if comes a message from a direct contact.
Phone battery manager. Put social chat apps that need to have real-time notifications as protected.
In settings, apps, advanced, ignore optimizations.
Whitelist the same apps.
That's all.
Hi!
Thanks for everyone.
The problem seems to be almost gone. On two days of testing only twice notifications groups were arrived late or partially.
I hope it is a definite solution and not an occasional event.
Have a nice day.
I have this problem with Twitter and Gmail;
As Twitter is protected and on the ignore optimization list but gmail is no where to be found in both menus;
Both apps are allowed to use what ever network (Data or WiFi)
I've been reading a lot about this one, but luckily never experienced it myself. Every notification arrives on time.

I've tried everything mentioned but the only thing that worked for me was to use a VPN app on mobile data then I get all notifications. Never missed any after using VPN try it. I use Opera Max but there are many others as well.

Android O and gmail notifications

I've recently upgraded to Oreo and just noticed that there are no more custom label sound/vibration settings for Gmail?!
Seems gmail is using the new concept that Oreo has, central app notification management which has only one setting per application.
Anyhow, i was extremely dependent on the different notification sound per label/priority inbox so this killed my productivity...
Anyone knows more about this??
edit: guess this is more of a general issue, not just for sgs8, so please delete this topic.
Only problem here since Oreo update is the badge numbers of Gmail notifications. If I have 2 New emails, the badge number is for example 16...

the badge indicates emails to be read and not just the new ones

It's a gmail label alert problem in the Android 9 OS. (I found this out through hours on the phone with, first T-Mobile, and then Samsung, who finally concluded it was a problem with GOOGLE.) My phone was one of the last to get the update (April 2018), but this seems to have been a problem in the forums since January 2017. I, also rely on my google inbox LABELS each having different alert notification sounds to keep me working efficiently! i.e. Important Clients, Important Suppliers, Urgent/Waiting for Response, Important Personal. Each one of these gmail labels had its own ringtone assigned. But after this Android update, there is only ONE priority setting and ONE ringtone. I used to think that Android/Google/Samsung were the cutting edge in phones but, THIS IS A HUGE STEP BACKWARDS!
Someone recommended the light flow app, but it doesn't seem to work on my phone, (or it is just too complicated for me to set it up correctly.) I either need to find a simple fix/workaround or downgrade to the Android 7 OS, because Google obviously is not going to fix it anytime soon. And I can't work without it. If anyone knows of a good, easy to use, email alert app that works with gmail labels (sometimes called subfolders). please post!
