Question UK Folk and Starling Bank app - Google Pixel 7 Pro

Hi all
So those in the UK using Starling Bank app on 7 Pro, do you have issue with no notifications?
When I install the app it defaults to no notification permission so I enable it and turn off battery optimisation but still get zero notifications.
This is only app with problem and multiple re install and even a full wipe and re flash firmware did not solve it.
Wondering if I need to get it replaced as Starling says they not aware of any issues on the app.

I think that your Bank that you need to contact for explain your problem.
That's not come from your phone Pixel 7pro.

I want to find out if other users have same issue as this is working on Pixel 6 Pro. Only on 7 Pro it does not work.

They likely need to update their app for the Pixel 7/Pro. If other apps send you notifications just fine, then the problem is with their app, not the phone.

Notifications have worked fine for me on the pixel 7 pro for starling bank. I transferred from a pixel 6a which was working fine also.

hmm when you installed it did it ask for notification permissions?
if it works for you then the app does not need fixing so faulty phone is only other thing it could be.

Yes I was prompted once I first launched the app after it installed. My notification for the app look like this.

Step counting on auto, how to turn off?

I was hiking the slot canyon in Anza yesterday and when I finally got back to a restaurant, I realized the phone , which I'd never enabled anything in particular on, had counted all my steps and several other things.
Does anyone know how to disable step counting on emui 5? I've done all the obvious things, like "disable step counting". Thanks. I don't care how many steps I've taken, only that I arrived.
Also: I meant to mention this but forgot. The camera works great for me, but that isn't good enough for the Honor 8. After I've taken some pictures, about 3 hours later, it always pops up a notification that says "I've finished enhancing your picture of _____" . What if I don't want an enhanced picture? Is there a way to turn off all this irritating crap? Thanks again.

If you are referring to the step count being displayed on the lock screen then you disable it through the screen lock settings. Otherwise, I believe it's in the Health App itself.
Not sure about the photo enhancing. Never seen that one before.
What app do tell you about step counting.
Plus, clear data and cache of the camera app and see if the pop-up is still present
I didn't even know that the Honor 8 had a built in step counter app in it's software.

Well, I forgot the name, it was the Health app (HiHealth or something). Try to find it and open it, you will find all your steps and lots of other information about your "health".

Maybe you have already removed it ?
It's this one : http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/huawei...lease/health-1-1-26-310-android-apk-download/
But I have the chinese version of the Honor, so maybe some apps are differents ?

The only fitness app I can find is called "google fit". I've disabled it. However, the steps are still there after disabling them on the lock screen & disabling the fit app, so I think it may be a bug or else there is another counter that just keep going. It's not that bad and it doesn't eat up any noticeable energy.

I just realized I had an app called "Health" and disabled it, and now it is gone from the lock screen. The lock screen setup doesn't work for turning off steps (or not showing them). The app was located in the /system/app folder as hw-health-midware.apk

It seems that you have the Chinese variant, as the US model doesn't come with the health app.

Probably doesn't matter what my frd-l04 came with that I bought from newegg that I use on ATT. It matters more that I updated to Nougat and that's the beta which had the health app in it. On marshmallow, I never had the step counter or the health app.

I probably just don't recall it from Marshmallow since I updated the first day I got it. The good news is that it's called "healthd" and can be disabled and deleted as can all their crapware if desired. I just did that and I'm not rooted yet.

Getting rid of samsung apps

Hi just got this phone after a year of the Moto z force. There are several apps built in which don't allow to be disabled or uninstalled such as the Samsung calender. I was hoping there is a way to get rid of this using something called adb however I've never used this before. Would really appreciate if someone can post a link and point me in the right direction to rid these apps from my phone including a list on what is safe to remove.

I didn't mention adb as most people can't or won't use it anymore. I believe this will do what you want.
adb shell
cd system/app
ls
rm nameofapp.apk
reboot
And make sure and reboot.

I have tried ADB + Debloater app. I didn't work... only showed me 2 packages. Unlike Note 7 that still works with Debloater. Did not try anything else.
PD did not work with my firmware so i had to get BK. I bought both of them and I like PD more but again, it wont work on my phone so Im using BK. Almost just as good.

Haven't tried adb to remove apps on the S8+ but have used it to remove battery charging icon on status bar. Package Disabler Pro works great on my T-Mobile variant, just using it because I had it on the Note 7.

Yup, got it here first thing this morning. The phone app has not updated yet though. I keep checking.
Working now on my Pixel 3 XL. Awesome.
I never got the email.
But I have call screen. Been using the magisk module to enable it. So nothing new for me

There is a mod for this by just editing an xml file to bypass the US locale checks that's been around since the P2, but if rooted with Magisk, in MM you enter settings>>downloads and type in "call screen" the only module that comes up is "Pix3lify" .

Plus Beat alternative

I came from one plus 6T and I think that best way to deal with no LED notifications was app called Plus Beat. It activate stock ambient display according to predefined time interval. Sadly it's no working on 7 Pro anymore. Anyone is aware of good alternative for that kind of app?
Hello
I also come from the 6T and I have installed it in my 7 Pro.
I think it worked better in the 6T, but I do not notice that goes wrong in the 7 Pro.
The only thing that ever worked for me is the option of DND profiles. When I set it up and activate it, I get into the app and the Option Enable Plus Beat It's off.
Anyone know how to fix it?
There's another app. It's called "Always on Edge". Works fine for me.

Tried Pixel Pulse today and doesn't seem to work either. Notifications come in, however they do not reappear again(pulse). Tried Always on Edge and Pulse Beat neither of them pulse, which is weird because Beat Pulse worked perfect for a day. Battery optimization was off for these apps.

It's really strange, some reports pixel puls working other they it's not working.. So far pixel pulse working flawlessly for me. It repeat pulse until notification it's dismissed. I try some edge but didn't like it. I prefer apps that use native ambient display rather than screen overlay..like aos edge or any led screen app

This may be a very dumb question but is there a way to dismiss notifications from the actual notification screen (I believe this is the ambient screen)?
The only way I've been able to dismiss notifications is to go into the lock screen and swipe away the notification.

Oneplus 8t Fullscreen

Hi,
so i received my Oneplus 8T yesterday and it works like a charm so far. But theres something i am unhappy with, after I did set up everything. I opened up PoGo and noticed that it isnt fullscreen. So I went to the settings and tried to change the Apps to Fullscreen, but there are no apps shown.
I have read some threads with the oneplus 8 pro facing the same issue.
Anyone else got that problem?
Regards,
Alex

Hi,
I was also looking for something to force all apps to fullscreen. Have you found anything on this yet?
It's a OnePlus thing. The OnePlus 8 is the same way. I think it has to be something to do with the Oxygen software. They haven't given us a way to make apps work full screen with the punch hole camera. You should be able to use all apps full screen a OnePlus device with a punch hole camera just like you can on the last 2 generations of Samsung devices with the same kind of camera setup.
I know several people have reached out to OnePlus about it but they haven't said anything and have remained quiet about it.
To force full screen you have to enable developer options and there's an option for cutout and you can disable it, that may be your only option
