[Q] One accessibility service per feedback type? - General Questions and Answers

Hi!
I've a problem, I downloaded the app called pushbullet, It tells me that I need to enable it on Accessibility settings (Is needed for the feature called "Mirroring notification service"). After I enable it everything works perfect.
The problem is when I download a second app called Heads-Up notifications, when I enable that in the accessibility settings, neither pushbullet or Heads-up works. If I enable only Heads-up (disabling pushbullet) it works OK.
I downloaded many other apps similar to Heads-up and the same thing is happening.
I sent an E-mail to the developer and he responded me with this:
" Hi! This is a problem with some phones (especially Samsung's) being "smart", and only allow one accessibility service per feedback type. Since Heads-up definitely is within the "visual feedback" type, I decided to stick to that type. Another reason to use the "visual" type is that it reduces the so-called "talkback bug". --Simen "
Question: Is there anyway to "Tweak" android and allow more than "one accessibility service per feedback type" ???
Sorry for my horrible english, I'm Italian

I just watched review on Phone Dog and his phone has regular android quick setting bar on top. Was it different in review models and they changed it afterwards ?
Actually other reviews have it that way as well. Is there a way to enable that ?

How do enable and activate "floating windows"

Hi guys, I Dont know how to activate "floating windows" on my device. I
downloaded EasyTouch(Holo Style) from play store and when I run the app
I got a pop up message "enable and activate display floating window". I've searched the device setting but I can't find/dont know how to activate the floating window. Can anyone tell me how to activate that thing? By the way I'm on android 6 (marshmallow) by fire588.
Thanks in advance.

I think you need to enable the " draw over other apps" under app permissions in settings

Thanks for the response. But I can't find " draw over other apps" under app permission under settings. All I can find under the app permission is toggle for camera, phone,location,storage etc. I found "multi window mode" in the developers option and I enabled it but that didn't solve my problem either. Tried googling, but got no solution. Some said that "display floating window" has been dropped by google in android 6 due to security reasons. Is that true?
Edit: Thanks. Solved my problems. Many thanks.
Settings - notifications - manage notifications - select desired app and turn on floating window
There is a multi-window option under developer settings. Just saying. I know it is not the same as floating windows.

Mi Mix 3 Notification Issues

I've just yesterday gotten a Mi Mix 3 and set it up accordingly, and I'm finding MIUI okay as a whole except for some issues with notifications I'm having. Basically:
Some apps that send push notifications will only send them to the notification shade. No notification icon, no pop-up alert, no lock screen notification (more on that later), no sound, no vibration, no notification light. This is all completely independent of the notification settings of the app. I can turn everything on and it still won't show. Some apps show fine, such as discord and messages, but they still won't show on the lockscreen:
No notifications showing on the lockscreen at all. For apps that do send notifications, only the sound and notification light will display when I receive one, but checking both the lockscreen and notification shade whilst the phone is locked will show me nothing until I unlock it. This is while "Lock screen notifications" is enabled in the app notification channel.
No per-app notification sounds. This is most likely less of a bug and more of a missing implementation, but since this is a base Android feature now is there alternate way to enable these?
Settings specific to these issues:
In "Lockscreen & Password / Advanced Settings / On Lock Screen" the phone is set to "Show all notifications and their contents".
In "Lockscreen & Password / Notifications" it's set to "Show Animation".
In "Notifications & Status bar" "Show notification icons" and "Show on lock screen" is on.
MIUI version is fully updated at 10.2.1.
Anyone got any idea?
Many thanks
For me i had to activate it for each app seperately, that i wanted notifications from. Except for apps that already gave me notifications like snapchat. I know i had to do it manually on instagram for example

Strangely, by going into the app notification settings and changing the settings off and on again it seems to have fixed the problem? At least for the actual app's I've tested (twitter and discord).
I've also tried with an app called push notification tester however and this has the same 1. and 2. issues. I'm not sure what the difference is but if it works for important stuff at least that's what matters.
To everyone else the 3rd question still stands; is there a way to get app-specific notification sounds in MIUI 10?
The simple solution is to install a non-MIUI-based ROM.
Have someone found out how to set per app notification sound?

LOL. Stop fat-shaming it! Weight was one of my biggest concerns coming from a Galaxy S5, and the MM3 is heavy, but you do get used to it after a couple of weeks.

Literally burst out laughing in a meeting where I'm the lowest man on the totem pole by far, oops.
I'm having this same problem again myself
Even Xiaomi apps like YiCam don't work right half the time.
The notification inconsistency in MIUI is one of the biggest reasons that I just listed mine for sale. No matter how many times I've gone through individual app settings and overall notification settings, it never works as expected. And my expectation is only for it to work as the settings that I've selected indicate. It makes me a little sad actually... this was my first Xiaomi device and I ended up liking MIUI way more than I thought I would (especially compared to EMUI... which is complete trash). Oh well... on to the next.
I run an app called Notification Repeater(apk) and it seems to address any of the inconsistencies that MIUI has with Notifications(or lack there of). I use another app called AutoNotification(by joaomgcd on the Play Store i believe) to block some notifications such as "x app is diplaying over other apps" that never seem to go away.
I know it kind of sucks to have to find a work around to use a phone when realistically it would be nice if your phone just worked the way you wanted it to out of the box..but since installing these apps i have been more than happy with my current situations when it comes to Notifications.
I've also had similar problems. In addition to manually turning on each apps notification in settings (Have to remember this for every time I download an app as well) I've aslo downloaded the app 'Notification Repeater' which has helped significantly. I get absolutely ZERO notifications on the lock screen though which is something I still haven't figured out how to fix without switching ROMs. I hope someone can figure something out.

It is sort of thick but is the densest phone I've ever held. Got used to it after a week or two though, I don't think it's a deal breaker

Question Allow app DND-notification in OOS12

Hi all!
I seem to be stumped as how I can enable an "emergency app" to give notifications even if the phone is set to DND-mode.
In earlier versions of Android this was managed via "Apps and notifications --> Notifications --> Do not disturb" (or just long-press DND-tile in quick settings).
Now however, I can not find that setting anywhere!
Best regards

Question notification light

Hi all,
I recently got a Xiaomi 12 and noticed that a notification light is missing. I've tried a couple of alternatives that I found on Google Play (including Always on Edge or NotifyBuddy), but I couldn't make either to work: the former was far too complex and the latter worked just for one time but then stopped.
Do you have any other alternative to offer which is guaranteed to work for Xiaomi 12 on Miui 13.2.4 and is simple enough to set up? It'd be great, if there are instructions that can accompany the setting up (although not necessary). By the way, I tried the instructions laid out here:
https://www.thecorrectblogger.com/2022/02/xiaomi-12-notification-led-light.html, but they didn't work for me (the settings seem to have changed in the app).
Thanks in advance!
I use the app "LED Blinker". I'm happy with it.
I use AOD XPath for my Xiaomi phone. Select "Receiving Notification" on "Activate Display Mode". It allows you to select which apps notification (e.g phone miss call, instant message app) to trigger display AOD screen with notification icon and message.
