Well, one week till CES where Huawei will announce the US version. Getting excited! But I was wondering. Anyone have buyers remorse at this point? Do you like the Mate 8 more or less as time goes on?
No buyer's remorse here.. I'm quite sure if a N/A version is released there will an accompanying rom as well..

Thanks. I'm trying to decide whether to get the Mate 8 (Great specs and build), Blu Pure XL (very good specs, cheap, its been rooted and has TWRP - also some promise for developer support) or stay pat with my Note Edge (I do like the edge features and it's screen is basically as wide as the Mate 8, just not as tall. also Marshmallow arrives in the next few months hopefully). Decisions decisions....

Yeah, it all comes down to how much do you want to spend.. I bought the 128GB version, I had the Mate 7 so I knew what to expect..
If I could only get notifications working properly then I would be 100% happy.

Notifications panel & status bar in settings and permission manager for the apps that are not notifying you.. Hope that helps..

Been there done that, been through every option and nothing helps. Reading around, this seems to be a common bug with emui, and the only way around this is to disable phone manager or make the apps system apps. Which can't be done without root. So, right now I am playing a waiting game.

altaz,
Similar problems have been noted in some of the other threads. Is it possible that the problem you are experiencing isn't due to actual notification issues, but that the apps you are expecting notifications from are not currently being permitted to run in the background when the phone's screen is turned off?
I'm not sure which apps you are having trouble with, but for example, with Whatsapp(?). If this sounds like it might be the issue for you (and you haven't already looked into this), try going into Settings-->Advanced settings-->Battery manager-->Protected apps and allow those apps that should be receiving notifications.
As to the original question of the thread, no remorse. So far so good. A pretty sleek, powerful phone. Just need to get it rooted.
Might be the interactions between marshmelow & emui, if that is the case a fix should only be imenent.
Nevertheless, try this ---> battery manager itself; click on the setting icon up left of the screen, you need to switch on (Keep mobile data on when sleeping).
Of course that is in congunction with the rest of the settings/permissions.
Good luck,
No buyers remorse here. Having recently had a P8Max I knew what to expect with regards to setting up notifications and permissions so they work, and for me currently no particular problems. The camera is not as good as the best of 2015, or even 2014, but I had realistic expectations there and the camera is performing well enough for me in light of the other benefits.

Seems this notification problem is becoming more annoying, i have turned on everything possible (permissions, auto start, notifications, ignore optimizations). I even found another layer of settings in the apps settings that allow a deeper level of changes (settings > Apps > Advanced) . And still i can't get emails to notify when the phone is in standby. This is even after i have left the email application on, and turned the turned the phone off via the power button. i've spent a number of hours sending myself emails in various conditions and while might get the notifications sometimes, others i may not so this doesn't help narrow down the cause.
I have now realized that it's not just emails that are affected, i don't get auto notifications in Google Photos or Rewards, and some apps which run on schedule. The google apps only update when i open the app. which is useless for apps like Rewards, since the surveys expire after 24 hours, so go knows how many i have missed since i moved this this phone. I've never had this type of problem with any other android phone, and i;ve had a fair number of them over the years. At this point, since i am not able to return the phone i am thinking that i might have to do a factory reset, and hope for the best.

altaz, no need mine works now. just follow my previous post in this thread.
Just got mine today. No remorse here, and hey there might be a rom to flash once the US variant comes out. I love this phone.
I'll have buyers remorse if one of these other A72 devices gets the same battery life and camera for <$400
I love it coming from note 5. No regrets. Glad i didnt wait for mobile congress as i was very dissapointed with both lg and samsung. Love the mate 8
i agree, while LG had some nifty ideas regarding that modularity, all in all im not much impressed with either the G5 or S7 line... happy camper with my mate 8 indeed
This is probably the first phone I ever got that I didn't get buyers remorse hours after buying it. I've come from a S5, S4 and original Note before.
hours after buying? only phone? well that sounds like someone didnt do proper research first

Hello.
I am from germany. My Mate 8 is a chinese one with original B162 Rom. Notifications don`t work for me.
What i did:
data in sleep mode enabled
apps are allowed to stay active at sleep
notification in priority mode
rooted device
made WhatsApp and Android Wear (for my huawei watch) to system apps with Titanium Backup (i bought it before ...)
freeze phone manager
I dont`t get my notifications all the time. Very bad are notifications for my huawei watch. My phone rings (WhatsApp), but my watch doenst. Then i start the Android Wear app and the notifications are pushed to my watch.
The phone is ok. I am coming from Samsung S6 Edge+. But the notifications MUST come always.
What else can i try?
(sorry for my bad english)
I had only notification issues with whatsapp - however the situation has improved greatly after I installed the app Push Notification fixer ( no root version)
Now I'd say missed notifications is very very much lessen, probably around 10+ % only
All my other apps eg Maildroid ( only mail app I used), Friendcaster, some newsfeed app, XDA etc no notification problems at all
Mine is China set on B156 firmware ( non rooted)
On my pixel 2 tap inputs occasionally don't register, I've had it happen in the android system menu, the android back/home buttons, chrome, etc. Is anyone else experiencing this?
My phone's basically on stock default settings, nothing unusual running. Not sure if it's only tap inputs getting dropped or the whole system locking up temporarily. Turning on "Show taps" in Developer options I can see there's no visual effect when a missed tap occurs.
Yes, this is me too exactly. Same thing with the dev option too. Not sure if I should wait for 8.1 or if it's hardware and RMA it. Frustrating because I like this phone.
I noticed this on my phone, clicking around in the settings and on the back and home buttons. I then did a factory reset (because of a separate issue where the location icon was always displaying in the notification area, even when not in use). After that the issue seems to have gone away. So it would seem to be software issue. I suggest trying a factory reset (though beware that this wipes everything on your device).
P.S. nonexistent, I'm impressed that you joined the XDA forums in Dec 2010 and never posted a comment until now. Of course, you might need to change your screen name to "existent," now that you're out in the open.
I have definitely noticed this as well, happy to know it wasn't just me

I tried a reset but the issue still showed up. In fact it happened twice on the first time setup stuff afterwards. I called Google and we went through the motions and reset it from recovery mode but it was still there when I was testing it the next couple hours. Anyway, we're doing the RMA thing. I'll let you guys know how it works out when I get my new phone.
Got my replacement and the problem still exists. It even happens just a couple screens into the initial setup after a factory reset from recovery mode.
I find that it occurs when I'm in a small room with the heat turned up. The sensitivity of the touch screen seems to depend a lot on moisture. If I keep my fingers moist (or wear a touch sensitive glove) it works a heck of a lot better.

That's good and bad news I guess, hopefully just needs a software update. I have a replacement coming Monday, but I kind of expect no improvement and that this is just a common thing that a lot of people aren't noticing
I noticed that for a while in Google Play Books, in which I tap the screen frequently to turn pages. I tried a factory reset, which didn't help. I tried running in safe mode and testing on Maps and still had a problem, although less frequently (a higher percentage of taps worked). Then it started to work better. We'll see if that lasts.
I tried flicking as opposed to tapping and flicking always works.
I'd suggest posting on the Pixel product forum or calling support, so that Google becomes more aware of the issue. There are some threads on the subject on reddit and the product forum.
Out of interest are you noticing it any particular parts of the screen?
I've noticed it a few times but it's been on areas of the screen near the edges.
I assumed it was some sort of palm rejection thing going on it the background with it thinking I'm accidently mashing the display.
With me it was the right edge toward the middle, as that's where you tap to turn the page in Play Books.
I get it on the back button frequently, but it happened just now in the middle of the screen when I typed the text input box to start writing this
I think this is the whole OS hanging/freezing briefly actually, not a touchscreen input issue
- Pressing the hardware unlock button can get ignored (both locking/unlocking)
- Scrolling from a quick flick + release can suddenly stop (no additional inputs)
So most likely this is a software issue, hopefully fixed in an upcoming update? It's kinda annoying
Did you change the DPI or font size? I go back to default and it seems that everything is good now.

update: no it happens again…

I can trigger the system hang/"missed input" most reliably by visiting m.reddit in chrome (any thread w/ comments) and spamming tap on the [-] next to the username of any comment to collapse/expand the section.

So, I replicated what you told me, 3x. I didn't miss any taps, and no system hang/missed input..
hmm
Got my replacement and it has been much better so far. Still a few dropped inputs but I think those may be false positives because I am hyperfocused on it. Pretty sure I have always had to double click occasionally on all phones at various times.

Yeah, sometimes I see a tap register visually on the screen, but the intended action doesn't happen.

It's funny. I had the issue. Did a factory reset. Felt like it was better. But now that I'm thinking about it more I notice it a lot. So I can't tell if it's really different. Before I figured I'd made a mistake. Now I think it's the phone. Damn you phone!
Anyway, I notice that the issue tends to happen more or less randomly, at any position on the screen. Also, sometimes the same tap fails to register twice in a row, but once it's starts working all subsequent taps that come in a row work (say I'm clicking through a lot of menu items in some settings). So maybe that lends some credence to the idea that there is a system for registering the taps that is not waking up and once it does it works fine.
Perhaps related, I have my ambient display set to wake on double tap. Before the Nov update it hardly worked. Now it seems to be working reliably.
About three months ago my Pixel 2 (purchased new from Google) began having an issue where it becomes unresponsive or extraordinarily delayed on responding. It almost always happens when I'm waking the phone up from being locked. When it happens, the phone will eventually unlock but everything reacts several seconds after contact (power button, taps, swipes). A reboot or power down fixes the problem, but is always necessary.
I switched to Project Fi around that time and thought it had something to do with the switching between CDMA and GSM (Sprint/US Cellular vs T-Moble) towers, but I've switched to T-Mobile (a solely GSM provider) since and the problem persists.
I am running Android Pie (stock). My bootloader is unlocked and I do have Magisk installed. No TWRP. I don't have any obvious troublemakers installed (like Xposed, for example) and only a few apps that even use root (Cerberus, Adaway, and Nova Launcher).
I have heard about the Pixel 2 XL having a hardware issue that results in unresponsiveness and that ultimately requires sending in the device for a replacement. Is this the same thing?
Any advice would be much appreciated. If it would be helpful, I can produce logs, but I'll have to wait until it happens again to offer logs that might contain clear indications of what might be happening.

We're talking about the back button and the new pill gesture button, right? If so, then no I haven't installed anything to hide those: they are always visible.
Well, after 24 hours, I had the issue resurface. Unfortunately, the logging app I was using (matlog) froze up with the phone and produced a blank text file. While rebooting restored normal function of the phone, I can't produce a log as a result.
It occurs to me that while I am not disabling the navbar, I do use a function of the Cerberus anti-theft app to disable the notification bar while locked. Could this be the source of my issue? If so, is there any way to confirm this?
In the meantime, I've disabled that function and will see if the lock-up occurs again.
I'm curious where you were going with the question about the navbar. Could you tell me more about what you were thinking it might have been?
I went ahead and disabled the 'block status bar' function of the Cerberus app and the problem has not resurfaced in over two days (it was occurring several times daily). Although I can't definitively prove it, I think the culprit was the app.
Thanks for the time and assistance!

Sorry I didn't get back to you I read this a while back and totally thought I responded. Yeah anything that hides the status bar or navbar from the system UI at all times is known to cause wake issues. On my essential phone it would require me to restart it to actually get the screen to come back on. It's called the deep sleep of death or something haha

Hello Crixley,
No worries at all - I'm always grateful when anyone responds around here because I know that we're all balancing regular life and our hobby time!
I'm relieved to hear that it is a known issue, though I'm going to miss the functionality! I wish Google would build some kind of equivalent security measure so that the network state can't be changed while the phone is locked. I'm guessing that this issue is exactly why they haven't gotten to it (yet?).
Thanks for your time & support, both here with my issue and across the forums.
Peace,
Computerslayer

Hi all. In this Video the reviewer states that he isn't getting any notifications with the screen off. Also it is a problem for one of our members. Is anyone else having these hassles? Do you get incoming text, email AUDIO notifications without waking the phone?
Hi
I have no issue with notification at all..
Even when screen is off ..
U do have to active notification from each app setting and alow all permissins...
Also keep in maind to keep app running remove battery restriction from app setting also..
All will work normal
Working for me but I did need to grant WhatsApp and Trurcaller lots of permissions.
I even got True Edge installed for a visual way to get notified and that works brilliantly with the device asleep with screen off.
I was a bit surprised at the extra level of permissions needed. It's all gravy now, but I could see why a reviewer or somebody unaware would get caught out
But yes, I am getting notifications with the screen off in sound and visually, without having to wake the phone.
Indeed at first I wasn't getting any notifications but then I discovered you need to go into the app info and give permission for notifications and turn off battery saver.. now it works perfect and only for the apps I want
The video the OP posted is exactly whats happening to me. I have all the settings as described. Battery saver turned off and even when into each apps settings and allowed ALL permissions just to see if it would work. As the video says, notifications come, but you have to wake the device to see them, there is no sound or anything on screen until the device is woke. Exactly as the video describes. I do hope its fixed soon, I am back to using my Note 5 whilst my beautiful 10 Ultra sits in its box.

Have you undone your earlier modifications to the phone (copying files from phone to phone etc)?
You have two problems and the one to ignore for now is louder notifications. It's notifications at all.
It isn't something to fix from Xiaomi's view and it is always worth learning the software. I don't like it myself... It can be cloying etc.
But the default behaviour is to opt in to notifications. It's working as intended. That said look where we are, it's just your problems are a special case. No biggie, let's fix this!
You have an outstanding issue clouding this where you are trying to use unexplained files on the device (like seriously what format are they? Does it work in Music or anything? Have you tried removing them?)
Took a while but I get all my notifications now when screen is off, see 2vattached screen shots
Thanks all for answering my question! I think this is my last question before buying from Liaow.com, if the syncing isn't a constant problem. Does anyone have a major syncing problem as explained in this review? Once or twice a day I can deal with. I check the calendar throughout the day like most people. However if I get busy and forget, missing calendar events/alarms wouldn't work for me. I'd be forced to use my work iPhone<shudder> for calendar events lol.

How did you get the icons to show on the lock screen?
Mine doesn't. Quite annoying.
Also sometimes the lockscreen doesn't show me notifications even tho they are there.. :s
I have no issues with icons displaying while locked. You do need to enable them and ensure they start automatically and power control is turned off for the app. It has been much easier in the EU ROM for some reason.
Solution!
Here is the thing that helped me with the same notification issue! Just google "xiaomi mi 10 ultra notifications" and in the top 5 links you'll probably find an article from: theunpopulartraveller. It explains the settings, and they need to be accessed by pressing and holding the app icon ^ app info.
Don't give up, try and you'll get the sounds from needed apps back. And ye, actually now I find the way Xiaomi did it much more convenient: I just turned on notifications for 2 apps, and all the rest are silent, while previously I had to turn off all the rest of the apps (much more than 2, definitely) not to get disturbed by all the bull****.
EU Rom doesn't have the "importance" option at 30/31
Well after trying to update to 12.1.1 and seeing what a buggy heap of junk it was, I factory reset, installed 12.0.15, and formatted data. But now notifications don't work when the screen is off whatsoever, absolutely no notifications. Beautiful. I'm so sick of the software issues with this phone, I'm definitely never buying another Xiaomi phone at this point.

Disable adaptive notifications from setting. I dont know what google thinking when creating such feature.
it basically interrupt the whole notification process. Using so called Ai to decide, when to give you notifications or when not to. But most of the time it pick wrong decision and delay our notification altogether.
This is android feature since Q thus also causing problem on Pixel phone. On xiaomi seems like it suddenly got worse on Android 11

How did u manage to roll back to 12.0.15?
Get over to the EU ROM version. Lock screen notifications work fine.
Have you checked each notification that it has no battery optimisation set, also, check in notifications that each one has access to the lock screen. Since A11, notifications have been a pain but for some reason they do work much better on the EU ROM.

There are issues for Gpay and some banking / local safetynet apps for EU ROM which i do not wish to live with.
Somehow the props file in the eu rom causes those issues.
i am probably going to rollback to 12.0.15... now is the excruciating 160 hours wait for unlock.
You obviously don't follow the EU forums. GPay works, safeynet works and my UK bank works. But you also get everything plus more than the Chinese stock and all updates are based on both weekly and stable stock ROMs respectively.

i don't follow it to the tee, but i've seen some reports of some users not able to use gpay out of the stable roms.
that's why.. too much trouble.. i'll see what i can do when the unlock timer is up..
Maybe it's a common issue but I haven't found any info when searching about it.
I have a P11 Pro, and since I got it, I have always been having the same issue with the tablet waking up on its own quite often, randomly, or even sometime refusing to go back to sleep.
I disabled any setting that might waking it up (tap to wake, move to wake...), and disabled several apps, but it changes nothing.
It's especially annoying since when I don't use a screen lock, with the 5 minutes stay on time I set, it keeps waking and empty the battery quite fast.
Using a screen lock reduce the issue as the tablet goes back to sleep quickly, but still doesn't solve the problem. And I don't want to use screen lock when I use the tablet at home.
Does any you know that issue, or how to fix it?
Thanks in advance!
Do you have a keyboard attached or some Bluetooth devices like mice?
Does it have a built in sensor for lid close and open when used with the original keyboardcover? That might be causing the issue then.
Did you try a factory reset?
Is the latest system update installed?

Nothing connected.
Yeah the lid has a sensor, but it does it even when I remove the cover completely or when I leave it closed and not moving.
Yes I did several factory reset, update of the firmware, and yes I'm on the latest one.
As far I can understand, a process on the tab itself is waking up the tab randomly, I just can't put my finger on which app/function does it.

Look for battery usage details it should tell, after having show system services ensbled

Nothing visible there either, the app that keeps waking up the tab isn't necessarily taking any battery.
I didn't mention as it is very visible from my profile, but I'm not a beginner with android, very far from it, if I'm asking here it's because I already tried all the obvious things
I am asking if anybody has the same issue and/or was able to fix it. If not, I guess it's just my unit.
You might try this
The command like this:
adb shell dumpsys batterystats --checkin
provides a statistic for wakeups, including the reasons.
Mine wakes up. Can't figure out why either but then I'm not by any means an Android ace. I turn the screen off then after some period of time it'll turn back on. Nothing in the notifications bar the screen just turns back on for no apparent reason. So yes, it is happening to someone else but no answer as to why.

I'm sad to say that you were right, the magnetic cover was at least partially to blame for the wake events. That's a huge bummer, since I guess there is no way to fix the issue
I had this issue.
I said that notifications must not wake up the tablet and it did not appear anymore.
I know there was no notification, but it worked for me.
(in fact, sometimes, I had the impression that a notification appeared for a very short time)

Interesting, I'll try that too, thanks
I have the plus not the pro but check if near to wake up is on under the AI Experience Center in settings.

Everything is disabled there.
But I am quite convinced it comes from the smartcover, as since I enterily removed it, I don't have the issues anymore and the battery lasts weeks (with light usage) instead of 2 days like before.
Issue is that there is no way to disable the smart cover magnet...

That is probably it. I just thought I'd offer I had similar happen and had accidentally turned that on so it was turning on every time anything moved near it.

Thanks, that indeed makes sense.
And I really wish it was just that.
I'll try again with the smart cover to see if I can do anything about it.
It's the official magnetic cover so it's a huge bummer that it causes issues...

Hi, I was looking for a solution to the waking up of the screen. In the ¨AI Experience Center¨ there is an option called ¨automatically screen light-up¨. I turned this off, because it said that if sensor detects a face, the screen lights up, and also "other" objects can trigger this screen light up. I suppose the cover is detected while closed. Other object in the range of 0.5m can also trigger this light up. Also deactivated the notifications icons in the status bar, if not doing this, it continues to light up the screen in my P11.
Mine does the same thing...just sitting there and all of a sudden the screen lights up.
Solution:
Settings -> Display -> Lock Screen -> When to show
Turn "new notification" off
