Hi,
Everyday I get a notification asking me to install McAfee Security and Family Protection.
I don't want to install the McAfee suite on my tablet, how do I turn off those notifications?
Those notifications come from the LG's update center, that I need to be activated for the updates such as Qpair.
So did I miss something? Is it possible to have the notification for the updates of the installed apps without being bothered by those asking me to install McAfee?
Hi,
I never got such a message,... I installed mcaffee once (for curiosity) and deinstalled it immediately after a few minutes of playing around with it (you have to allow that explicitely).
Maybe that helps,
Ragtime
Edit: just realized that I disabled the automatic check in the update center... maybe that was the reason? I'll see, enabled it now...?
Did you ever figure this out?
Ive got the notification set to 2 weeks but I'm sure the McAfee reminder pops up every few days

Has anyone else had the problem of Google Now notifications going missing? For at least two weeks, the Google Now notification has been absent from my notification tray. I've tried everything I can think of, (clearing data/cache, disbling/re-enabling Google Now, uninstalling updates, deleting all my past reminders, clearing all cards, disabling and re-enabling notification settings both in App Settings and in Google Now) with no results. :frustrated:

I don't remember getting any notification from Google Now, and I've had this phone for a month now. On my old LG G2 I got them all the time. I don't get my Trip Time to work notification anymore, or any of my package tracking notifications. They are there is I own Google Now, but never in the Notification Bar.

Yep, me too. I wonder if the M8 broke the notifications somehow... because I noticed it's also affected my Galaxy Note 8.0.
One thing I suspect (and I hope I'm right) is that either a Google Play Services update or Google Search update has broken it in anticipation of Android 4.4.3, and when we get this update, everything will be magically fixed. It's wishful thinking, but at this point, it's all I've got left. I haven't done a factory reset yet... but I think I might give that a try right now.
I get my "time to work" notifications still, at least on days when it's higher than normal.

Yeah, I get some notifications, but not all the ones I want. It's like I'm only getting "urgent" notifications, and not the "standard" ones I used to. I get reminders, and I crazy storm moved in the other night and a "severe weather" notification showed up.
Hi All,
This is kind of a "What has happened since upgrade" question. Got my Marshmallow upgrade a week ago but other than that everything worked as it should. I got fed up with the battery drain so decided to do a factory reset. All went well but I have a lingering issue with Business Calender 2 and "Do Not Disturb" I was wondering if anyone uses this app and could test something for me or comment.
I use Do Not Disturb from 10:30pm to 7am and I have all calls allowed through but no notifications I have no apps ticked as a priority so that to me means any calls I get, all notifications register but do not give any sound.
Business Calender 2 however manages to get round this somehow and no matter how I set it up other than totally silent BC2 notifcations are still audible while the system is on DND. I want to know if its normal or something I have done so am asking if anyone else can check in any way or has had experience.
All other apps, Chrome, whatsapp, text, FB etc show in the status bar but do not sound.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
As an update, I removed BC2 and even with the inbuilt calender app it does the same thing. I looked at an old G3 I had running 5.1 and that has a tick box to allow calender notifications which I didnt have ticked so I think maybe that when I upgraded the G4 from 5.1 to 6 that setting stayed somehow and then when I factory reset it was gone.
I will also note here that I have searched everywhere and it appears that native Android 6.0 has toggles for calender and events to let through on priority screen which they were on 5.1 but they are nowhere to be seen in my priority screen on my G4.. Very frustrating, where have they gone?
It is annoying though as no notifications to me should include the calender.
Oh well..
Guys,
Can I just ask someone here with a non rooted LG G4 running Marshmallow to put their phone into "Do Not Disturb" and then set a calender appointment while its in that state and let me know whether the notifcation is audible or if the "Do Not Disturb" suppresses it. That way I will know one way or the other as a rebuild to find out is a little excessive and I dont know anyone else with a G4.
Appreciated.

I confirm that the calendar reminder notification ignores the "Do not disturb" status and is audible. Strange indeed..
Has anyone else been experiencing random applications opening on the device after the Oreo Update? I have the VZW Varient so i dont know if that makes a difference but im interested to know others feedback
I'm on T-Mobile variant as well as on oreo and have not had such an issue. Which applications have been doing such things?
i've got the similar issue for my z2f EU (xt1789-06) and i'n with 7.1.1
app: amazon, yahoo auction JP, chrome
Hmm..I did notice a couple apps do that..

I've noticed it a few times. Nothing consistent. Probably just the Chinese government making tiny mistakes
Randon apps
Yes im experiencing the same problem with apps just opening over the top of what ever your doing. Apps that I haven't used in awhile. Would love to find out what is causing it
I don't have that issue. The application manager will opens temporarily when device reboots. The only bug I have found is that if I try to disable the amazon app my phone instantly reboots.

I am on Sprint and have used this phone since Sept and never have experienced this, not even on Oreo since I updated on Tuesday.
just to add my two cents. I was having this problem. Turned off Moto voice security and I haven't seen this happen again.
I've got it too, can't figure it out. I'll have to try your suggestion JAWheat411, thanks!
Warning for those who are experiencing it: this bug has the capability to bypass screen locks. Opened up an app today that completely bypassed it. Interrupted my Spotify while at work and saw that app open instead. And I am sure that I locked my phone since I leave it on my toolbox, and don't want all my co-workers in my business.
I'm also having this very same problem. I will also try disabling Moto voice security and see if that rectifies the issue. I will report back in about 2 days.

lol, I'm late. I still have the problem. It's very random and hasn't been happening as frequently but it still happens.
Same on my Note 8. Very frustrating.

This is exactly what is happening to my Galaxy S7 edge since the Oreo update. And it goes right past the lockscreen and my security. My phone is always locked, yet I find I've send a nonsense text, or pocket dialed someone, or that a gibberish email is half-composed, or that my calendar is open and a new nonsense event is half-entered. Somehow Oreo is doing all sorts of screen taps, or allowing my phone to wake up and let the pocket do that. And I have enabled the thing about disable touch when in pocket, and I've shut down smart unlock, but that hasn't made a bit of difference.
This problem is happening with my recently bought Moto Z2 Force. It started out random, but then became pretty consistent. I tried disabling the Moto actions (voice command, voice unlock and one button nav) but the problem kept happening afterwards too and became consistent.
It even opened outlook and managed to delete an important email from my boss that I hadn't read yet! Had I not been looking at my phone while it happened, I would have had one unhappy boss.
Even after unlocking the phone, it would just try random unlock codes for a while and eventually lock out the screen for 30 seconds, and then try again. Wouldn't even let me restart the phone. After struggling for more than 2 hours, I was finally able to restart in safe mode and the problem seemed to stop in safe mode. I disabled Moto actions app, deleted data from that app, and also just to be safe removed the HDR+ cam app that I ported. Planning to monitor for a couple of days and see what happens.
This sh!t is just bonkers!
How do I stop the f***ing Huawei Tips notifications on this phone? I uninstalled the Tips app and the notifications still pop up (WITH SOUND!!)...
I am seriously thinking of returning this phone. Huawei has become so intrusive and annoying with their data collecting software that I don't want to fund their business anymore. This is getting worse than Sony. I dumped Sony phones when they started pre-installing stuff that you can't remove and I am beginning to see that it will end up the same way with Huawei.
This is madness. Even the Huawei Video app sends stupid notifications....
Between these notifications and the Huawei search app hijacking the phone every time you just slightly swipe downwards by mistake this phone is driving me crazy.

It will give tips for a couple of days and it will stop after that automatically. Its same with every EMUI 9 Phones.
So do you think it is acceptable to send noisy notifications that the phone owner has no way to stop? We must wait for the phone to stop by itself on the basis of what a stupid Huawei product manager had decided for us.
How about a "Tips" app that gives tips on how to stop annoying notifications?

I think you have not disabled it. Might be a overlook
Check again if it's already disabled enable it and then disable it.
Once the app is disabled it would not show alerts.
My tips app was uninstallable with no tinkering. Bought in the UK from carphone warehouse. As I understand it, the Chinese version of the phone is heavily locked down.
I think the app you need to uninstall is hwsmartsuggestion

I have a problem with Gmail not syncing properly.
From time to time, it will stop notifying me of new emails.
When going in the app, the mails will come in, without the need to swipe down to refresh.
It has been a couple of days like this now...
Pretty annoying.
And to state the obvious...
Yes, I have enabled syncing.
And YES battery optimization for Gmail is disabled...
Not even the intelligent thingy.
Anybody had the same?
Any ideas?
Have read al lot of topics about it, but no clear solutions...
To my knowledge, Gmail has been having these issues for at least a few weeks now, it's not only you.

Had the issue all last week (Ireland). The last 2 days it's working fine. No changes made to phone.
Mmm, strange.
My girlfriend does not have any issues on her old Oneplus 5.
So completely random?

Via adb?
Don't want to do that every reboot...
No changes are needed, it is working off and on for people randomly. It stopped working for me for 4 days, then 2 days ago was fine again.
I've done manual syncing for a long time.
Sick of unreliable busy things running around in the background.
For the last couple months I've kept Google play Services* disabled unless I sync Gmail, I rarely use Gmaps or Playstore so I don't care.
My stock Note 10+'s battery usage is down to >7% an hour SOT using the Brave browser constantly. That means not only less charging but less strain on the battery out of the gate. I don't consider Google to be a trusted vendor so limiting it's access is a good thing.
*keeps Find my Device from autostarting it's bloody self as well.
I've had this issue with Android for quite some time now. With my S21 Ultra, all I had to do was disable doze with adb commands and never restart my phone. It was so nice getting email notifications at the same time as my iPhone.
I thought I could do the same with the OP9 Pro, but this isn't the case. I too have turned optimisation off, turned doze off, and keep the app open in the background - to no avail.
It's so sad to receive a notification on my iPhone that is fairly important to my business, only to get it anywhere between 10 minutes to several hours later on what is supposed to be my business cell. I'm unfortunately outside of the return window with the phone, otherwise this frustration would've lead me to another iPhone.
So insanely frustrating. I don't think I'll be carrying an Android phone much longer if this persists and the iPhone 13 is as good as I'm hoping it is.
I removed universal gms magisk module and somehow it worked again

Activate Developer options>Standby apps, all buckets should show as active, if not power management is active!
Power management will cause erratic behavior.
You need to be up to speed to use an Android effectively.
iphone? So blah, pastels and made in CCP sweat shops

So many people (including me) already mentioned this issue with Gmail notifications. It is definitely a bug and OnePlus is aware about it. Not sure when it will be corrected...
Waiting for an update, I recommend to use "Spark" app which is working good for all my mailboxes.

The beautiful thing about Android is there's almost always a 3rd party work around.
You're not locked in.
Glitches aren't uncommon, but most are small ones. Finding work arounds is a part of Android ownership... use it's flexibility to your advantage.
I thought I was the only one who had this problem.
a reboot fixes it for me for a couple of days, then its back to not showing any notifications.

A reboot a day seems reasonable...
Maybe 11.2.6.6 update fixed this problem, I don't have the problem for now.
