The headline says it all. Any hint appreciated.
BTW, I also can't change it on my OP5, presumably after the Oreo update. It still uses my personalized reminder sound, which was set before Oreo but no way to change it now or I'm just too stupid to find it.
Thanks!
I'm also having this issue on my 5T. The option to change the sound is unavailable to click.
Notifications Google Calendar OnePlus6
Same her for oneplus 6 oxygen os 5.1.11.
No editing of notification sound and vibration possible for google calendar app..
I think you'd have to unpack the calendar apk and change it there. Not even sure if you can do that with a google app. Those sounds and all are build into the app.
Nah, normally you can pick the sound effect from the ones you've got on your phone, but Oneplus has for some reason disabled this functionality on OxygenOS 5.
I shifted to aCalender due to this issue. Happy with the new app, similar functionality of u can a say a little more, with a little learning curve.
Seems this issue has been resolved in op6 android Pie stable build.
Google calendar just sucks, as do most of the Google apps. I installed the Asus Calendar apk and have all the features back. You can't disable the Google Calendar though on the OP6 due to the way they've allowed the Google Calendar to take over some of the settings.
I have an Honor 8,chinese version FRD-AL00.(rooted)
The problem is everytime i clear the memory the phone kills the app completely. Ex- the app "messenger" or "whats app" , if i clear them from memory (clear ram on multitask window) i no longer recieve notifications.I have to always leave them opened on the backround.I also tried removing them from battery optimization and it didnt work.

Just lock the app on recent apps windows (a little lock sign on upper right corner with x sign). every time you cleaning apps don't swipe that app you don't want kill.

Man, I am living with this problem for more than half a year. I did find a somewhat tolerable solution - it is not exactly elegant but it might prove helpful. So yes, after playing with every possible parameter in settings , I also came to the conclusion that nothing really helps except keeping these apps minimized in the background. So I decided to just find a way to hide these minimized apps from the "recent apps" so that these don't interfere with my other activity.
Finally, I managed to find one humble app which does exactly that (you won't be able to find it by the name in Google Play, hence I provide the link).
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=comapede.app.versteckeapp
The instructions might not be exactly clear - you have to install the app then access the widgets from your home screen, identify the Hide App widget and drag it on the home screen. At this point you will be presented with the list of all apps on your device and you would need to chose the app you want to hide. After doing so, a widget for this specific app would be created (which looks identically to the app icon but works differently). First, make sure you discard the respective app from the recent apps, then, to enable hiding, every time you launch the app, you need to do it from the created widget (not from the icon). Obviously, you can repeat the action for all other apps you need to hide.
This worked reliably with Nova Launcher on Android 7 (EMUI 5.0) and continues to work after updating to Android 8 (EMUI 8.0). I also have Chinese ROM (not rooted).
As for the reason why this happens - I have no clue. I don't exclude that it is a software bug that is quite rare on honor 8 devices (otherwise I would see more people complaining).
There is an interesting aspect though - while I have been using my FB messenger for a while like this (this was the only way it worked), now I am able to access the app from its native icon and discard it from the recent apps and it still receives messages instantaneously (same about Skype, Viber). (I don't remember if this is related to the update). Yet for other apps, like KinScreen, Light Flow, ACR (Automatic Call Recorder) and many others, if I run the apps from their icons, the moment I discard them from recent apps, they are shut down completely.
Hopefully this works out for your

Thank you.Ill try the app or keep them locked on multitask.The most important reason i asked is because i applied for a job and they had sent me an email for an interview.I missed it cuz i hadnt opened gmail.I couldnt care less for games or any other entertaining apps but when it comes to work or more serious stuff then it becomes a problem.Thanks again.

Yes, this can be really frustrating. For me it has been a series of missed Skype calls, which I happened to discover even after more than a week.
I've been checking around of the settings of this first Android 10 beta for Oneplus 6.
In notification settings of android system I have bunch of weird user installable apps of which notification permits there is a possibility to set. (setting if the app can be over others)
Weird thing is that I don't have those installed! I recognize using most of them from long ago with different phones, BUT not in this one!
And I cannot change their permits.
Can they be some sort of residue of automatic backups to Google?
See the screenshot.
Could you check yours, because if you have your own different residues, this is something that is clearly a huge bug on whole lot of versions of android.
Anyone?
I got a pocophone 2 pro
the problem is I changed notification tones within specific apps but those sounds do not work instead it wil use the notification sound from within settings > sounds
does anyone know how to get this working?
That's one of the reasons why I hate Miui.
It happened first to me on WhatsApp and on Telegram too, amongst others.
You must investigate and go to the Settings - Manage Apps, find out the app, go to the app Notifications settings (you continue into the Miui Settings...) and configure sounds in there. Maybe you must to activate notifications also.
As you see, if you must do all that dancing for 4 or 5 apps, this is not the best thing for non-advanced users...
I have forgotten : make sure that Miui doesn't kill the app or "optimise" it on battery settings!
Greetings,
So I've successfully installed Lineage OS 18.1 Nightly and it runs really well. I've got the NikGapps Core and Magisk installed. Was able to add the apps I like from Google Play store and used the free or open source alternatives I could find for others.
I have a few questions for anyone using Lineage since I'm not sure if these are bugs or design choices or parts of Android 11.
Any clarification would be great. Basically, there's a few things I noticed that are different/don't seem to operate normally.
I can upload screenshots if necessary but let me give you the cliff notes of what I'm experiencing:
-No labels on the home screen icons, even though setting says "Show labels on desktop". Is this me interpreting something incorrectly?
-All icons on the home screen and app drawer appear to have a white background... should be transparent?
-The default sms messaging app always shows quick replay phrases despite turning off the setting "Always suggest quick actions/replies" in the notifications menu
-There is no way to turn off suggested apps... when you use an app it places it in a new section at the top of the app drawer. Looks like the menu setting is missing (there in vanilla A11).
-There is no built in volume limited. This was on my stock Galaxy S7 so if it is an OEM thing I understand. Perhaps you have a suggestion?
-Notifications from the default sms messaging app do not pop up over other on screen elements (specifically fullscreen video in Brave). Does this have to do with the "Bubbles" setting under notifications?
-Screen automatically dims/sleeps when watching fullscreen video (again in Brave)... happens inconsistently and going in/out of fullscreen seems to stop it from happening again.
-There is no swype ability on the keyboard. I assume this is a OEM keyboard setting or something.. is there an alternate keyboard you would recommend (open source, free) that won't steal your info/privacy violations?
-Last thing which is more of a question than anything else, since I cannot install a stable twrp, I used the Lineage OS recovery. It doesn't seem to have a backup/restore function. So is there a way for me to, with the setup I currently have, to do a complete and full backup? By this I mean like capture an image of all the partitions as they currently are, as you would with a PC.
Sorry for n00b but the last unlocked rooted custom rom I ran was Cyanogen back on a Motorola Photon. Thank you in advance, any input or clarification is much appreciated as you are a helpful, insightful bunch here.
