What do the series of beeps mean after getting a notification from Google Assistant while wearing factory earbuds that come with Pixel 3? Is it just a confirmation that my notifications are finished? And if so, can I turn them off? Is there a YouTube video or a website that fully breaks down the Assistant?
Thanks, Vince
I heard some new beeps using maps navigation today. Not sure if it was a system or app sound.

Does Note edge support incoming call voice announcement? I don't find any settings
Up....
Is not possible at all?
Samsung is really cutting corners on note edge.
on my note3, she speaks out the phone numbers,
and you can also say "alarm stop" to stop the alarm.
on note edge, you need a app for that.
just search caller annonce on play store.

Completely incorrect they just moved everything around to make you explore the device. I believe the option you're looking for is located under "language and input" then scroll to the bottom and select "read notifications aloud". I had the Note 3.....before getting this actually and all the stuff that you say it doesnt do it does just fine. If its not working for you most likely you jumped the gun and removed S Voice. S Voice is required for all voice commands even though your not using it freezing it or removing it will cause voice commands to stop working. Ex. Camera voice commands, music player voice commands, etc.
Read notifications aloud setting also has been now removed from Note 5. This is frustrating.
i have Samsung galaxy s8+ and it does not have the feature of announcing incoming calls. does anyone have the same problem?
Hi all,
I’ve got three doubts:
When I am using Google Maps (either with or without Android Auto) and someone calls me, at first a heads up notification that doesn't cover the entire screen appears, but when I respond the call, then the entire screen is occupied by the dialer app, leaving me without visual GPS directions. This didn't happen with other smartphones using the Google dialer app. In fact, if I'm in a car, I can minimise the call so that I can continue seeing Google Maps, but it’s not possible to do when riding a motorcycle. Do you know if it's possible to answer a call but maintaining the call minimised? This problem doesn’t happen with Waze because it has an option to keep Waze always in the foreground, but Maps hasn’t got this option.
When I’m in a call and sound notifications are on, apps such as Telegram or a radio app I have, keep ringing even when you’re in a call, which is kind of annoying, especially when you’re listening to the radio and someone calls you and you have both the radio and the call running at the same time, disgusting. I’ve found no way to mute notifications during a call, just by using Do not disturb mode all the time (I've seen that Android Nougat automatically activates the Do not disturb mode during a call, but this doesn't happen in my Honor 6X), but then you have never sound. Do you know any way to fix it without needing to always use the Do not disturb mode?
I’ve set Google Play Music as the predetermined app for music instead of the EMUI music app. However, when I use the Bluetooth in my motorcycle helmet (Cardo Scala Rider Q1) and I push the button to play some music, sometimes the EMUI music app is launched instead of the Google Play Music app. It happens at random, there are no patterns, but it’s quite annoying. Any solution out there?
Best!
Sorry I have no idea...
Is it just me or summoning the Google Assistant doesn't offer the sound notification to let you know it's listening. It's only happening on my OP6
Mine is also silent.
I have 2 apps installed, WhatsApp and Ring Doorbell that are not giving me sound notifications. For me the volume on this device is not very loud. I work in a noisy environment and need loud volume. My last phone (Note 5) I did that sound mod changing the volume xml file and used very loud notification sounds (mp3) and it was perfect. So I took those sound files from the Note and put them into the Mi 10 Ultra in Ringtones folder and set them. Since then I get no sound notifications.
I did some digging and found an app 'Hidden Settings for MIUI' and set it to 'play sounds', but that didn't fix the issue either. I'm completely new to MIUI and am all out of ideas. Its strange, but when I open the phone, the WhatsApp notification sound beeps to let me know I have a message, but I have to open the phone, if its sitting in my pocket I get no notification. Ring Doorbell is not working at all as far as notifications go. Nothing. If someone who knows MIUI could give me some help it would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: shouldn't have wasted my time
That's it for me. SIM out and back to my Note 5. Great phone but the software is atrocious, if I had of known the nightmare this would be I wouldn't have bought this phone. So now it goes back into its box where it will stay, 6 months 1 year I don't care, until there is an alternative to using this absolute mess that MIUI is. A real shame, but something as simple as a couple of apps really is the deal breaker for me. Maybe I'll sell it? Global ROM? Who knows ....but for now its a useless device that can't even run a couple of apps? That is as bad as it gets. Its privacy settings are the worst I have ever seen. Disguised as 'protecting you' but in reality its the other way around. If I wanted to be locked out and locked in and locked down I would have bought an Apple iPhone. Xiaomi makes good phones, but their MIUI software is the worst I have ever seen. I would not recommend anyone buy this device.
I actually was facing this problem and found out a fix. You just have to turn vibration on. For some reason some apps don't make a sound if it doesn't have vibration on for notifications.

I have Ring doorbell and Whatsapp working (sort of) as sometimes they are delayed.
I had to change settings/notifications/ring and set rules for notification as important and also make sure all notification settings are on
Then fo to settings/apps/manage apps/ring and make sure Autostart is on and set permissions to make sure the bottom 4 are set to green ticked. Then make sure restrict data usage set to WLAN and Mobile data and then set Battery Saver to No restrictions.
Hopefully it will work after that. Do similar things to other apps that may not be making notifications correctly.
PS I'm using China ROM
So I had this issue and figured out a sure way to get sound notifications working.
You just have to turn vibration on in the subtype of notification for said specific app. If you don't want vibration on all notifications for that specific app turn it off otherwise.
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****.
So I recently bought a Black Shark 4, and I use Google Assistant a lot.
I did the Accessibility Switch thing to bring it back, and it works.
But now, whenever I have a Youtube video and go to check/change settings, I have to tap an "X" to exit the overlay.

Is there a way to have the Google Assistant beep, without having that in Youtube?
