Got bubbles to work! - Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion

I've seen others struggling to get bubbles to work.
I was disappointed to find that bubbles were still not working for me after updating to the October security patch.
However!
I simply disabled developer settings, and now they're working flawlessly
I did go on the beta program for google messenger, but I it was only after turning off developer settings that the bubbles icon appeared as it should.
Curious if this works for others

I have bubbles working with dev ops on. I've had them since cleaning installing 11.

Where did you go in developer settings to change bubbles?

Disabling developer options had nothing to do with it. Joining Messages Beta was what you were missing.

Huawei mate 9 mini screen view problem

Hi guys,
Is any tricks I don't know to enable mini screen view?
Checked so many times settings-smart assistance-one hand UI-mini screen view ON. Still nothing. Any ways to fix it?
Thank you.
MHA-L29 B183
Settings > Smart Assistance > One hand UI > Mini screen view
Swipe left or right along the bottom navigation bar.

works perfect for me....
I have the same issue. Despite the setting being turned on, it doesn't work.
It's deactivated itself because of some other setting I have enabled, but I haven't figured out which one yet. The reason I know this, is because I set up a second 'guest' user and when I log in to that profile (which I haven't done any setting adjustments to) it works.

Is your Magnification Gestures setting on? Advanced Settings > Accessibility > Magnification gestures. I had it turned on earlier and found the mini screen view not working. On a hunch, I turned it off and voila, the mini screen is back.

Yes! That fixed it. I cannot believe the time I have spent trying to figure what setting breaks the mini screen. Thanks mate.

No problem. I'm learning every day. Only had my Mate 9 for two days and I've come across 2 problematic/clashing areas already. One being this and the other being the OK Google voice recording thingy.

I think the voice issue was due to be fixed in an imminent release. I only see this issue when using voice recorder or in the camera app when using voice control. In both cases everything works OK but you just get the annoying banner. I just ignore it. You can always temporarily disable OK Google voice prompt.

I ended up uninstalling the latest Google update for now and the annoying pop-up is gone. Will be waiting for the fix when it comes in.
Got similar problem with regular Mate 10 (not pro nor lite). Any idea how to fix it?... there is no magnification menu.

Screen flashing white for a while.

Like in title, my screen, sometimes is being white fors a while(like less than 1 sec),like opening an app, but nothing opens and then phone work fine. What to do, what it is? Is it virus?

I'm getting the same thing, mostly when playing a game. Will flash for a split second. Not sure what's causing it.
I don't think it's a virus tho.
Maybe its problem with system or launcher? I haven't found anything like that on internet or how to slove this
Mine is doing the same thing as well. I think at least for me it's because my RAM is getting close to making out.
Same problem
I have the same problem. Has anyone got any hints at least? It's very annoying and no other phone seems to have it.

I'm having the same issue. Screen goes kinda white for half a second and looks as it would start an app, but then goes back to what app you just had opened.
It is not a constant flickering or flashing, as reported from Samsung and other Devices and which is documented via Videos on the Net.
It would be hard to film it, as I haven't been able to reproduce thus behaviour.
When I play a game (King of Avalon) and when I'm just typing and that issue occurs, the typed text is gone. Luckily it doesn't happen while typing on WhatsApp or other apps with text features.
A while back it was almost gone, but then came back, without me having changed the app Setup.
I will reset the phone and see, if it comes back.
I still think it's an issue brought up from apps that use the GPU a lot.
Have tried different settings the Developer Options from Android (Disable HW-Overlay,...) but it didn't help.
Will report, once I have resetted, but will take a while, until I have time for testing.

Hey, I also had this problem, it helped me change the language in voice search to English and turn off "ok google". I use the phone in a different language and I also had it in voice search.
Hello fellow HTC u11 life friends -
I found this thread by Googling, so hopefully others will find it too. I have also been having this very annoying problem for several weeks. Can't remember when exactly it started. Was it after an Android update?
This problem appears to be related to the Google app settings on the phone, as the previous poster suggested. When I read his post, I went to the Google app settings (Setting --> Apps --> Google) and didn't see anything out of the ordinary, but I noticed that there is a setting called Display over other apps. This was set to "yes" by default, so I changed it to "no". Since I made this change yesterday, I have not had the white screen flash once.
It seems like the Google app is being triggered briefly for whatever reason and then closing. By not allowing the app to display over others, if the app is triggered, you won't get that brief white screen like the app is about to open. At least, that's what I think. Fingers crossed the fix holds. I hope this works for others. Let me know!

Before I call you a genius, I still have to wait a bit (and of course hoping)
I just turned off different things in the Google App "show notification for ***"
In this case *** was for Price Alert, stocks alert, sports alert and so on.
Furthermore I disabled the "display over other Apps" as well.
I could imagine that this latter feature doesn't have to be turned off completely, rather than turning off all those useless alerts for stuff I've never even looked for.
Will try to go the next days to see, if that blinking is gone and if soy trying to activate the feature with almost no alerts in order to determine, what the exact culprit is.
Disabling the feature totally might do it, but if for example some alerts were useful, then it would be nice, if at least they worked out as supposed to.
Will keep you guys posted.
Fingers crossed ^^

Did turn off not only for Google but silenced many other apps as well, but still flashes.
Just deactivated "Display over other Apps" in YouTube. Maybe that helps.

Tried this method and so far (1h) no flashes. Sounds reasonable, that Google is trying to send some notices to the screen and that functionality is somehow bugged. I'm fine with turning off ok, Google. Have never used it anyway. [emoji28]

Are you using the built in Camera, or some app?
I got 8.1 too but no changes. Have to admit I'm using Google Cam Port. Might be that, because otherwise I've turned off kinda all notifications, but it's still flashing.
As mentioned earlier, I should do a full wipe and use the built in cam and such, but I don't really like it.
I'll see, when I find the time to wipe and set it up again...

Android Q beta 5 is out !

Anyone install it yet ? Experiences ?
Sent from my PH-1 using Tapatalk
Installing now
Seems fine on my PH1 but then I never seem to have all the weird issues others have. Stock unrooted.
Maybe a placebo, but I've noticed a marked improvement in touch and scrolling.
Edit: I've had it running the latest beta for. 12 hours, and have noticed the standby battery drain is much improved for me compared to previous betas.
Also feel faster so far. When I was travelling with maps and play music on it got painfully slow, hanging all the time. Now it looks better. But banking app still not working :/ not sure how I'm going to get it working.

My beta 4 has been working flawlessly besides the screen studder when I swipe home from within EVERY app. Getting great battery life, 6.5hr+ on screen time with every charge, with 4hrs+ of them being streaming videos. If I don't watch videos, this phone will easily last at least 3.5-4 days. All this at 60% screen brightness.
With that said, I'd hate to install beta 5 and have new issues and worse battery life.
Beta 5 has been good for me. Good battery life about as good as beta 4 was but the only issue I have is even after going full gesture navigation. It seems to go back to 3 button mode randomly and I'll have to change it back. Also I don't see the option to enable the side peek feature that was supposed to be a part of beta 5

Are you using the stock launcher? Supposedly Google added a "feature" that blocks you from using full gestures if you're using a 3rd party launcher on beta 5.

Hmm na I'm currently using rootless pixel launcher because in beta 4 on quickstep with dark theme the app drawer apps had white letters on white background unless you changed your wallpaper to a dark one.
So your saying if I use the quickstep I can also enable the peek feature?

I'm not sure about the peek feature (to be honest I don't know what that is), what I was getting at was about the navigation reverting to 3 button. If you're using something other than stock launcher, it's supposed to force you to use the 3 button navigation according to Google, so that might be why you're seeing that behavior.
Also, beta 5 fixed the dark theme issue.
Edit: Peek is working.

I didn't have to enable anything, it was just working. I had full gestures as my default when I flashed, and I didn't change anything after that. Looked in settings as well, no option there. I'm assuming it should be on by default.
If you're having trouble with it, disable grip rejection, that could be conflicting with it.

Just flashed the fastboot image, for some reason the only options under Choose screen lock are "none" and "Swipe". There's no option for PIN or pattern anymore which leaves me unable to add a fingerprint to unlock with either
How's the battery life in Android Q?
Is it the same with P or worse?
I assume now that it is official, that SafetyNet is passing ok so things such as GooglePay aren't a problem? I had avoided trying a beta because of the lack of SafetyNet failures on them from what I had read, and I tend to use GooglePay and a few games that need SafetyNet.

Can't really answer that definitively, it came out a few hours ago. I don't consider using Beta releases as proof, and the thing about battery life, is that it is so dependent on what you do with your phone, that each one of us will get different results.
I'm surprised that the update is only 16 MB if you're on the final beta, but I think I remember the update from Android 8 beta to 9 being similarly tiny. That's a pretty good indicator that barely anything changed from beta 6.

WIFI and bluetooth will not stay on. Factory reset doesn't help. Neither does going back to Android 9 and doing another OTA to 10. Staying on 9 until further notice!

Updated OTA last night. So far so good, not noticed any specific issues yet.
Kudos to essential for keeping so on top of these updates. If they do ever release another one I will buy one so long as they strengthen the phone/data signal a bit. That is pretty much my only disappointment with this one, but still it was worth every cent of the 200 bucks or so I paid for it.
Flashed ota through twrp and rooted using Magisk's canary build.
No issues thus far. I can change the stock calendar notification without media crash, but I'm only using the stock sounds. Are those experiencing issues using custom sounds?
Still can`t use gesture navigation with 3rd party launcher?

Horizont Light not getting to work

I am coming from a Xiaomi Mi 9 and actually I am missing the notification LED!
Not sure whether it is a general issue of Android 10 on our device or based on a lack of knowlege on my end.
I think I set up everything propperly, but neither Horizont Light nor any 3rd party app is indicating anything.
I tried to solve this issue by reading some threads on XDA already -therefore I am quite convieneced that settings are ok- but still notification light is broken.
Maybe there is any Custom-ROM with a nice solution...
pls. advice!

Jep...fresh out of the box -not rooted or unlocked yet!- Android 10 got installed.
Sure , well aware that it is beta, therefore I am asking whether it is a general issue at present, fingers crossed, that it will be solved latest with the stable version.
I did a quick and dirty install of Android 10.0.2 over 9.5.13 -and- I go no Horizon Lights to the notification.
Cleared the data and cache of the Ambient Display and no change.
I miss the notification blick i had on my Pixel.
.
Does NotifyBuddy work ? - The OP has not been updated in 6 months, which leads to to think that it does not work on Android 10.
Does a Play Store app work ? I saw one on the store and then a user said it did not for OnePlus...

I could be wrong, but I thought the horizontal lights were only working for sms messages. I stand to be corrected on thay.
NotifyBuddy works but you lose the ability to activate Google assistant by saying "ok Google".

Did you fix this issue/find yourself a solution? I know it has been a while since you posted this but the Renovate Ice rom has settings for the ambient display horizontal lighting and you can change the colors as well has how many times it pulse's.
I'm looking for a solution as well. I'm stock rooted on 10.0.2, and I've yet to see that light come on. And if it does, since it only comes on briefly, I don't see it. I may have to try that Renovate Ice ROM to get multiple notifications.

ON 10.0.2 the horizontal notifications were not working for my either, but they worked with Renovate.
I installed pulse beat and put the right settings, i think, but it only pulses once and quickly.
What should the settings be, for those that got it to work?

You could try changing the animation scale in the developer menu. Change it from 1x to maybe .75

Seems like a pretty decent alternative. Lots of options.
Only thing I've noticed is some occasional wonkiness in unlocking. It's random so I can't pin down what is really going on. Doesn't seem to be much of a battery hit
