So, as the title says, I have the N1 resting in the dock and charging. I want to use Google Talk so I tap the home button and open Google Talk. Between the tap on the home icon and anywhere after the Nexus One will automatically return to the clock app. I can tap home again and randomly it will again return to the clock.
Is there a way to a) disable the clock (I'll miss it, but it's almost frustrating enough to never use it again) or b) disable return to the clock app? I don't see any settings to accomplish this so it's probably some power user trick. I don't think this is occurring because the N1 is losing contact with the dock while I'm tapping as it's resting pretty solid in the dock.
Any ideas?
I guess you could put a small piece of tape over the middle pin and that should prevent it from going into the Clock app but still allow it to charge.
try dock nothingness from the market, it will let you select it and when its docked it wont open anything.

Excellent recommendation. I tried a couple of the Droid dock app and they were buggy. This app is consistent. Thanks.

That's a good idea. If I run out of options and Dock Nothingness stops working I'll look into this. Thanks.

im glad people use it haha, dumb app, i know, but somepeople find it useful, I did this once I got the dock unboxed, I was getting really annoyed of things opening up automatically.

I don't think the app will stop working because it is not a hack, it's using documented and officials Sticky BroadcastReceivers for detecting the dock, opening "Dock Nothingness" instead, however, the "Dock Nothingness" app is nothing, so it closes it self right away giving the user the illusion of the phone not really opening anything
When I read the thread topic, I was like "yeah, its damn frustrating!".
velazcod: Thanks for the app to fix this nuisance.
I look forward to the next version that does even more nothing!
Updated, make sure to go into the app's preferences -> Phone and select "Nexus One / CM5" if you are on CM5.0.3+

Oh, you need the "LEDs Hack" app, you can find it in the market.
Just received my desktop dock and the clock application was driving me mad within 10 minutes of making and receiving calls etc.
Dock nothingness is great - thanks for the suggestion....................
One of the things I find irritating about the dock is when I'm playing music through the bluetooth connection it initializes automatically and I take the phone off to send a text or whatnot it unpairs its self. Can I force it to stay paired until I turn off bluetooth?

Yes, connect and pair before docking it
I do that now, but I have to dig through the wireless menu. Is there a widget or something that will connect to a predefined device with one touch?

For some reason the dock won't allow to auto-connect when in range, it does this for other devices, like headsets....
For some reason my wife doesn't like my headboard buzzing & chiming all night long whenever I receive an E-mail. As I only have a cell & no land line I need my phone to ring during the night if I get a call, but want to mute everything else. For now I disabled E-mail notifications, but that's a pain to turn on and off ever morning/night.
On my old Windows Mobile AT&T Fuze I just set Active Sync to only sync during the daytime, so that effectively muted it at night.
Anybody have any thoughts?
I'm interested in this too. Actually it'd be nice to turn everything but ringtone and email off for me, as I get work emails overnight while I'm on call that need to wake me up. But gmail, facebook, google talk, etc - it'd be nice if there was a mass silencer for those.
Turn off data at night maybe? Might be some app to turn off data during dif times?
Go to the market place and search for an app called "Setting Profiles Full" by "probeez". This type of app is exactly why I did not go with the iPhone. It will do exactly what you want, I'm using it for that and more.

I downloaded the light version and its not working for me. I set it so at a specified time it is to turn on a profile and its not even doing that. Any advice?
Profile App / Widget pro is working for me. The only part that would be a problem would be keeping emails notification while silencing messages. Maybe a 3rd party email app would do it.

i use gmail only. otherwise adore this phone but there are no email apps that work with getting instant notifications for email.
How is this possible? are there any apps that work? Theres no way Huawei would put this phone out with this issue...
I receive both gmail and exchange push notifications all the time, using the native gmail app and the email app for exchange.

the gmail app updates randomly. every time i unlock the screen, the gmail icon shows up and all of a sudden I have unread emails in the inbox.
if i use the native mail app, will this issue be corrected?
Do you have them whitelisted in the power usage firewall?
This is a real issue, I set every single setting possible to try and rectify this problem but I can't. It doesn't appear to affect everyone but I can confirm if affects me.
Never had any issues with Hangout or Whatsapp though like other have had.
I'm not sure if it's hardware revision, software version or what makes it not work for some, very frustrating. I've tried most roms, root, no root, using gmail, using built in mail, using other mail programs but the same results.

In this setting, neither Gmail or the native mail app are present. Outlook was present when I had it, but the same issues that gmail had.

native, gmail, outlook, bluemail...none of them work. How is this happening? How does everyone not have this issue?
Such an amazing device, such a stupid way to completely ruin it...
Is there any way to get email notifications that I haven't brought up?

Root and update rom after my guide?
I have already root and update rom but I am experiencing the same issue as the OP. I have tried EVERYTHING.
Move to app-sys, change doze settings, protect apps, clear dalvik cache and everything I can think of.
Telegram works, whatsapp works but NO email works.
I have tried typeapp/bluemail/gmail/normal mail. None works.
As soon as I lid up the screen all notifications come. When my phone is on the charger all notification comes.
So clearly this has something to do with power management. I am thinking of selling my phone because of this. In my work I MUST HAVE PUSH WORKING. Otherwise the phone is of no use.
Such a great device otherwise, one of the best if not the best I've ever had. Switched from galaxy s6 to this. But WHY HUAWEI ARENT YOU SOLVING THIS ISSUES.
A google search shows the issue has been there since mate 7 and even longer time ago.
I'm not stating this will work for everyone but I'm currently no longer experiencing the gmail issue that I've had since day one and on every rom I've tried.
If you are bootloader unlocked and have some time then give this a go and feedback on your results please.
I've installed rayglobe rom from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/development/rom-rayglobe-rom-t3315682
I then installed Doze from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/general/howto-solving-notification-issues-root-t3294178
As detailed in the Doze instructions I applied tuhinxp04's profile and just change idle timeout and max idle timeout to 60 sec and 600 sec respectively.
gmail and Blackberry hub are working as expected for this first time since getting the phone 3 weeks ago. You may not have the same success but please give it a go
UPDATE: 8 minutes is the longest I've so far had to wait for an email to arrive. Not push but something I can live with. Whatsapp and Hangouts seems fine btw.
The solution of notification problems for all apps of huawei phones (emui) is this brilliance application
Memory Locker on Google play
Lock all of your apps that are having problem with this software and also Lock your app in recent app and see if it is fixed.
Cheers!
Gnasher666 the issue is that push is critical for me. I turn on my screen every 10mins anyway but email push is very critical. Every second 15 second counts and I need to be alerted directly.
I thought i solved it. It worked perfectly for 8 hours and then suddenly died after I recharged my battery. Was even going to write a guide on how I solved it haha but then it died again so no solution here.
I really dont know why its so difficult to make it work because some apps do work like telegram.
So what is so special about that app that works but not others....
I get your frustration, I don't need that timely a notification for emails - 10 - 15 minutes works. Prior to all the playing around I've done I could go from one unlock to the next without receiving a mail notification, so for me this is a great step forward. Obviously, this is a hack, we shouldn't have to do it in the first place and Huawei needs to resolve it. If they fix this issue I'd be able to say without any doubt this is the best phone I've had (and I've had a lot, including top end Androids, iPhone 6S plus etc).

read this (doze - android 6.0):
http://www.androidcentral.com/inside-marshmallow-what-doze-how-do-i-use-it-and-what-does-it-do
You'll still get notified when "high-priority" apps need your attention. That means things like phone calls or SMS messages can get through (and thus waking up your dozing phone) as well as any app that declares itself as high-priority. Other things, like email notifications or Clash of Clans telling you your gold mine has leveled up aren't going to come in and wake your phone up.
This doesn't mean you never get any notifications while your phone is idle. Google uses what they call an "Idle maintenance window" where they pick up any notifications that may be available in one big batch. Then your phone can quickly go back to sleep.
When you wake your phone by side button, notiffication will arive immediatly (sorry 4 bad english)
not confirming anything - but memory locker may work. i set -17 to outlook after disabling gmail and I am getting instant emails. more testing until confirmation.
after powering off and on again, had to do all the settings again. so strange, like it sometimes works.

Is it best to set the things you want to always stay active -17?
I have an LG G4 and I'd mainly like to be able to double tap a volume key while my phone is in the holster and then via blue tooth headset make phone calls and create and read SMS. I don't want to use gestures or voice commands to initiate my interaction. I just feel they drain your battery way too much. Even shaking means the sensors are constantly being monitored. I just want to double tap the buttons to activate, even if that means using multiple apps to take control of those functions. I'm just a minimalist when it comes to things that are constantly eating CPU cycles and such.
I don't really need to do anything with movies or trivia... I mean a google search here or there would be nice. Maybe tell it to launch a maps program or something wouldn't be bad.
I really just mainly want to make phone calls and create and read text messages so I can do these things hands free. I'd like to do this for driving as well as I'm a bee keeper and it would be very convenient to do these things fairly hands free while I've got my hands in the bees.
Thanks in advance and I look forward to hearing people's opinions,

I was going to do that... I just didn't want to activate something that was too intensive and not be able to really shut it down. You know how they are, they seem to take over and never stop running once you activate them.
Everything I kept reading about Google was how it can help you watch TV and other crazy things that I can't see how anyone would need a voice assistant to do.
I mean, why do they have 3rd party apps if Google can "do it all"?

There is another virtual assistant developing silently, called VVA I think )). It can do everything you ask and no background running and battery consuming
Not sure when will it release
BTW have u try cortana for Android? It's pretty cool
And sorry for my bad English though
Hi guys,
I don't know if it's Oreo or the Nubia X, but a lot of apps don't show me notifications : Messenger, Snapchat, Candy Crush, TypeMail...
My clock app doesn't ring, and I have a message when I open it after (app forced close).
All those apps has been manually optimised in the battery settings.
An idea ?
I have problems with that too. And my apps always fall asleep, even my phone app, which means when people call me, I don't get the phone calls unless I turn on my phone and suddenly my missed calls and messages show up.
For my WhatsApp, Gmail and Yahoo Mail, even worse. I literally have to open those apps to check if I got new messages or emails.

Same thing happens to me. Authorized all the notifications, even set them to urgent. Still no luck
it's not enough guys. You have to go in apps info, permission managment and also power management and give permission to everything.
Go also in accessibility /downloaded services and activate the launcher to ON.
At the end, as for mine, all notifications will work.
Hello,
I have the same issue I rooted my phone its v2.19. Notifications work for 10 mints if I have the app running in the background, apps like gmail and YouTube crash after sometime of use.
I allowed all notifications and permissions and power management, it seems like its only the apps that rely on google play services.
I am not sure if this is a common issue...
I have noticed that some notifications will not come through unless wifi is connected, but after some time of having the screen off, notifications stop working. My email notifications will not come through or show on my lockscreen unless my wifi connection is active, regardless of whether or not my data is turned on.
