For some reason I can not access the Sounds and vibration setting within the phone app. Phone>Settings>Sound and vibration and nothing shows up. Anyone else have this issue?
yes I just checked and I seem to have the same issue
Set the Phone app permission access to storage. It will work.

I am having a problem installing the Amazon Appstore (and the foxfi installer too now that I think about it). I am able to download the APK and run it but once in the program the install button does nothing. I mean I click on it and there is no error message, no program crash, nothing. It's almost like the install button image isn't a button and I'm clicking on nothing. Clicking cancel or show all for the permissions works fine.
I have enabled install from unknown sources and even tried to disable it and try but nothing works. Has anyone encountered anything like this before? TIA for any help.
EDIT: BTW I'm on stock and not rooted.
SOLVED: Thanks to Zerkai it appears that Screen Filter and Screen Adjuster can prevent APKs from installing.
Try to install these apps with an APK Installer. Like the following.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwyLDEsImNvbS5wb3RlbnRlLmFway5pbnN0YWxsZXIiXQ..
See if that changes anything.

Just tried that and it is exhibiting the same issue. Called amazon and they hadn't heard of it and had no suggestions on how to fix it. They did mention security apps might be able to block installs and that led me to look at my apps. I did have Norton mobile security installed but stopping it and then even uninstalling it didn't get rid of the issue.
This is really starting to frustrate me.
May sound obvious, but have you tried restarting your phone?
If you were rooted I'd recommend clearing your dalvik and /cache.
One thing you may try is cleaning up your SD card.. Even try renaming the android folder on your sd card. It holds app data for diff apps. you system will recreate it. just delete the recreated on and change the name back after you've tested it.
The only other option (that comes to mind) is a factory reset. I would try the other stuff first. Something is corrupt somewhere.
By any chance are you using, Screen Filter?

I am not, but I did have screen adjuster installed and figured whatever screen filter was doing might be done by screen adjuster. So I uninstalled and guess what it worked now. Thanks a lot Zerkai, you the man.
But wtf would screen filter do that could cause this?
Beats me. Lol. I was baffled when I figured out Screen Filter was the cause. But all is well as long as it's not active. Have a good day!

Old thread. Yes, I know. Came across this thread trying to fix the same issue. The app causing the issue for me was JuiceDefender. I think JD controlling the screen's brightness level was the issue. Anyway, I disabled JD and I was able to access the button.

Tapdeck
Sorry to bump, but we can add Tapdeck to the list of apps that cause this problem. It's a live wallpaper.
I've noticed that for some reason when I get a text (SMS or MMS) the notification stays in the drop down notification panel even after I check the text. The only way to get rid of the notification is to "swipe" it away. I would think that as soon as you went into the text window the notification would disappear? Not sure what changed or event when it started happening, but it's VERY annoying.
I'm on wicked v.8
That's strange. On Wicked V8, and it's working like it's supposed to.
yes, very strange. Do you think by going into app settings - clearing data and cache would help?

Nope, didn't work. I feel like it has to do with some setting in notification. It's really weird because I'm using the stock e-mail app, and there's no problem there.
Any other ideas?
I had this problem before what I did was go into application manager the scroll down to BadgeProvider and clear the cache and data then force stop it then restart your phone it should work as it did for me. Hope it works for you.

I've a new Mi Max 3, I'm running the paid for version of Nova.
I've used an app called Timey for alarms for years on many handsets, never a problem.
On this setup the alarms never sound!
I've set the permissions to match the built in alarm app (which works) but no change. I've set the power options to no restrictions and all the notifications are on, but still no sounds and no on screen alerts!
I've cleared the cache on both Timey and Nova and rebooted the phone, still nothing!
TImey has a sound set and it's LOUD, so it's not that.
If I set a countdown timer and wait nothing happens, but when I open the app the countdown has completed and the zero's are flashing but nothing else?
Can any see what I've missed ???

Lock the app in Recents. Then, try it.
Edit: I just tested Timely, and that works without any issues without the need to lock it in Recents. I even killed the app before testing. It woke the screen up and worked. Make sure in Timely's settings, you change Effects to Full.

Hello. I'm running 10.2.5.0 (PFBEUXM) stable and I have an issue with Whatsapp notification sounds.
I tried to change the default sound notification from Whatsapp Settings - Notifications - Notification tone. When I clicked there I had couple of choices and I clicked I think Internal shared storage.
The issue is that I cannot anymore get out of this internal storage whatever I click. It's very strange. Is anyone else facing the same issue ?
Unfortunately uninstall and install again didn't solve the issue. I'm stuck on that page without the possibility to select another sound.
Install any file manager from playstore and try one kore time.
Don't tap "always".

That did the trick. Thank you!
What's strange is the fact that seems that Whatsapp doesn't come with a pack of sounds at all. on my other device (xiaomi redmi 5 - I have lots of sounds to pick from)
Yes. I would also like to use the default WhatsApp tone but can't seem to find it any where and it does not reset if i click restore defaults.

I've never had inbuilt Whatsapp's sounds in any Android phone.
Are u sure u are talking about WApp not Hangouts?
Hi.
When I set my own notifications for applications like WhatsApp, email, messages, calendar, everything works normally. However, after the phone is restarted, the notifications do not work, there is silence without sound. However, if I leave the default notification sounds set, they will work after the restart. For contacts where I have set my own ringtone, everything is fine after the restart. Not sure what it might be that your own notifications won't work after a restart?
Thanks.
Nobody help?
Internal system notification sounds work even after reboot. Unfortunately, custom sounds do not work after a reboot, only vibration.
Nobody nothing? :-(
Settings / Apps /
App Manager / search for Sounds app (com.android.soundpicker) then force colse it and clear cache and data.
Then reapply your custom ringtone

I can not find it. The sound app (com.android.soundpicker) is not in system !
My friend has the same POCO F3 phone and also has no soundpicker in the applications.
Also having this bug but not with all app which have custom sound notification.
Using EU.dev A12 rom, but also has this issue with EU.dev A11.
Its very annoying but couldn't find solution.
Tried to convert my sound's from mp3 to mp4, ogg but didn't help.

I also tried converting my MP3 to OGG and it didn't help. But when I don't restart the phone, my own sounds work normally in (WhatsApp, Sms, Email). Only after the restart do they stop working when the notification comes, it just vibrates for me, but without the sound. It's weird, as if something didn't activate or dont save somewhere after the restart.
Anyone have any ideas?
So I finally found com.android.soundpicker. I have it called sounds.
But after deleting all the data from the application sounds (soundpicker) no change.
The problem still persists - after restarting the phone, only vibration without sound for notifications. I'm helpless.
So I finally solved the problem myself.
I created a Magisk module that allows me to write to the system.
I copied my own notification sounds to the system media folder, and after restarting the phone, the notification sound works.

I think he means your phone has to be "Rooted" before being able to write to your system files as you did, well done for finding a FIX, it`s great have them documented to help others, maybe you could edit the thread title and add the word FIXED to it
