Hi I have just done a factory reset on my Moto G5 and I cannot get the settings gear wheel back on the notifications banner at the top of the screen and I cannot get the settings gear wheel back to where it was on the screen after I have clicked on the arrow on the home screen. I used to have this settings icon on the screen above all the listed Apps but all I have now is 4 icons ieevice help,Phone,Messages and Chrome this is where I used to have the settings gear wheel.Can anyone advise me how to get it back there??? Many Thanks.
most likely due to flashing other roms - replace the systemui.apk with the stock one or reflash firmware via fastboot

Many thanks for your reply but as I'm not at all technically minded with phones I've no idea what you mean it's all double dutch to me.I contacted Motorola as I had a problem with the sound volume and they told me to do a factory reset which I have done and this is what happened but it hasn't sorted my sound problem out.I have a flip case and when the case is closed the volume sometimes cannot be heard and sometimes it is very loud but with the case open the volume is constant not up and down so Motorola said to do a factory reset to cure the problem but it hasn't so it seems that I'll have to live with it!!

Loving the phone...can't wait for JB....
Right now, running stock AT&T ROM...I'm got a few issues / bugs to report...wondered if anyone else sees these or knows a fix:
1. The notification sound for Calendar reminders can't be changed. It lets me pick a new / custom sound but it does not save the setting. Everytime I go back in it is back to the default.
2. Incoming calls - often as soon as I grab the phone (usually from my pocket but sometimes when it was just sitting on a table) the call is rejected as if I bumped something to do this. Only the phone is locked and I did not hit any buttons. I really doubt I keep hitting the red reject slider and sliding it across the phone accidently....not sure what is going on.
3. Texts - they seem to not come thru sometimes and I also rarely hear the notification or feel the vibration.
Anyone else having these issues?

1. Are you pressing the "OK" button (next to the "cancel" button) on the calendar ring tone selection screen? I've confused myself and pressed the "back" softkey, which wasn't lit up, since it was below the "OK" button thinking i was pressing ok (or because I often unthinkingly default to pressing back to exit a screen). Otherwise this should be working, if it really isn't saving you have a buggy device...
2. I've only had the phone a few days and picking up calls has been no problem (stock rom, not rooted yet).
3. I feel you on the text alerts, but i get them on time and get a vibration just not the default vibration "tone" i selected. Generally late text messages aren't an issue with the phone more likely the provider, but your two issues above may indicate the device is at fault.
I can't change my notification sound on calendar either. I called Samsung and they said to hard reset. I guess their tech support is just as useless as Motorola's. I wish I could be that lazy at my job; "well customer I see you have a problem, have you tried putting it back in the box and pulling i back out? That's all I can recommend."
Thanks...

Definitely hitting okay....it shows the correct ring tone....but when I go back into settings it is gone.
Answering calls is getting better....disabled the motion controls and some other things to make it hard to accidently reject the call.
We'll See...

Hoping Samsung's Jelly Bean release fixes these issues....or maybe a patch release or two after JB. If not, I will try CM10 or a JB-based AOKP build when they get a little more polished.
This issue is fixed in the latest ATT OTA update http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31801294#post31801294
Thanks!

Thanks for point this out! I had forgotten about it! The fix seems to have worked for me. Would be nice if all undocumented fixes like this were in one neat bullet-ed list for us to review....
Nah, then Samsung would have to acknowledge that they told a bunch of gullable people to factory reset for nothing
Hello people
I am facing the following issues in my phone which is running OxygenOS 3.2.1.
1. Push notifications not coming until the phone is unlocked again
2. Alert slider causing the phone to go completely silent.
To add to the misery I was using my wifi on 2.4 GHz band but when I tried to connect to 5GHz band it does not connect and the error shows wifi connection failure. All my other devices are connected successfully to this band even my 4 year old Nexus 4 but Oneplus 3 does not seem to connect for a single time
This is really becoming disappointed for me bow after push notification and alert slider issues.
The range of 2.4 GHz wifi is not even half of what my Nexus 4 used give me.
I am using ASUR WRT 68u router.
These are very basic features of a cellphone which are required on the very first moment.
I am Totally frustrated with this device as I can't use it for my daily life!!! I don't know if people in this forum are not having any such issues with their devices.
1. push notification can be blocked when the screen is locked (to avoid that other people can see SMS for example). In the "When device is locked" option, "show all notification content" should be selected if you want notification. Also the alert slider should be on the 3rd position, the position closed to the volume up button. If you want to use the middle slider position, you need to select some apps as priority apps for notification.
2. hmmm I think it's the purpose of the alert slider... especialy in the 1st position, the further to the volume up button.
It's strange you seems to misunderstand it as when you put in silent mode, it say "silent" on the screen. I put my phone in english to be sure, maybe the translation in your language is not accurate.
Anyway the slider mode can be customized in the alert slider options.
For wifi, it seems ok for me but I can't test 5GHz at the moment.
1. Not sure if I see this behaviour but if I do isn't botherimg me.
2. I know put slider to silent and it silences the phone, this is probably my favourite feature of the phone. Completely silence the phone without even taking it out of my pocket genius.
3. Sent on my 5ghz WiFi connection.

I think you misunderstood me. Here are your replies:
1. The push notification issue is a doze mode bug since the notifications do appear and the sound plays ok until the device enters into doze mode after which there is no notification and no connectivity maintained which causes the notifications to stop, once the phone is unlocked the notifications start to appear
2. Well I know the purpose of alert slider and I am talking about when the slider is is normal position i.e. downwards, sometimes the notification sounds disappear and there is complete silence, the slider has to be cycled again by moving upward then downward to fix the issue.
for the slider, wipe your phone completely, reset it in other words.
If your slider bug still there, contact oneplus customer service to replace your phone.
and your first problem seems to be related to the second one as it enter the silent mode on it's own.

I have completely wiped off the phone and installed 3.2.1 from the signed flashable zip... the wifi issue is still there
I will check and update about the first two issues if they're solved... I have contacted customer support but they have not provided a satisfactory response yet.
When I upgraded to 3.2.1, I had the same issues as stated above AS WELL AS an issue with VoLTE that forced me to disable LTE in order to have a decent phone call. I reverted back 3.1.2 until OnePlus gets these issues ironed out. Overall, 3.1.2 has been much better for me.
I have installed freedomOS from xda and stock ROM again.. wifi issue is resolved but push notification and alert slider issues still persist in freedomOS as well as stock ROM.. I don't have VoLTE feature here so can't test
About the random silence, did you restore apps and settings from old phonethat had automatic disturb profiles? If so, reset and do not restore...
I'm not experiencing any of these issues, only issue is the random turn off
So i just got my phone back from service. I had a white spot on the screen. They fixed it by replacing the motherboard. It'll all fine and dandy right there. But i noticed i could not pull down the notification bar in potrait mode. While switching to landscape it works. This sounds like a hardware issue but im not sure. Is there a way to test the screen?... if a move a widget to the top of the screen from my homescreen. The screen detects it's up there.. so i guess the touch is ok?
The service took about 4 weeks so i hope i don't have to send it in again
I've tried resetting the phone (clean install)
UPDATE: Sent it back for another 4 weeks of service..
Hello
To make a touch screen test follow these steps:
1- open the phone dialer and dial this number *#*#3421#*#*
2- Choose accept, that will take you to a hardware test page
3- Choose touch screen line draw test.
Thank you
i have the same issues its software and gets fixed automatically
but there should be a solution
I just received my brand new HTC 10 today and I have the exact same problem as you.
I am unable to pull the notifications bar after I unlocked the phone in portrait mode. However I can pull the notifications bar while the phone is still locked AND when the phone is unlocked and rotated to landscape mode.
I have tried factory resetting my phone and upgrading to the latest software but the problem still persists.
What should I do?
Anyone solved this problem?

It's a screen issue. Do a line sensor test from the help app

I had this same issue. I ended up with a warranty replacement because it is a hardware issue. The first replacement I got actually had the same issue, but it was even worse. It was the entire top inch and a half of the screen. The second replacement I got was good to go.
I think about that, but i've a little crack screen in the corner on top so im thinking they told me that is my fold, or im wrong and they change my screen ? I can see that not only my problem
Same issue, my previous phone was overheating in the top part of the phone which killed the digitizer at the end. You need a replacement phone

Hi guys,
Would need some suggestions from you to understand what might have gone wrong.
I have noticed that after updating to oreo the navigation buttons are not properly placed. They are a little bit above the normal possible and doesn't seems to be in the middle of the black bar.
If you look close you can see that while i hover over the button the effect doesn't covers the entire area around.
Your help is much appreciated .

Can you share the wallpaper please?
Try to turn on and off the fingerprint sensor gesture in Moto Actions, so the navbar should disappear and reappear. If this not solve, try to reboot. If also reboot does not solve, try to clean cache. At the end, if clean cache does not solve, you can only try a factory reset.

The same for me.
Tryied wipe cache, disabe and enable fingerprint functions and nothing.
Seen this on Lenovo forums and reddit as well. Apparently it's a burn-in preventative method built into Android Oreo. It's supposed to move the buttons and the hit marker shade with every lock and unlock of the device to keep the pixels within that area from being overutilized and thus, burned in. Have you checked to see if the location changes little by little every time you turn the display on and off?
Either way, not an issue for me. I'm perfectly fine with my fingerprint gestures so I can get full screen real estate, not to mention all the z3 play renders point to there being a software button equivalent to the fps gestures we have, which kills the benefits of having such in the first place

Yea, i did noticed that. Not only while i lock and unlock the phone but also when i try to turn on and off the navigation buttons it is changing position a bit eveytime. I always had those buttons turned on and this has made me to use the fingerprint sensor for navigation. ? I am assuming there are going to be other users as well with this issue in their moto with oreo

Same issue here with Brazil version. Sadly, it is very annoying.
I can confirm this issue. The exact issues as described by you all. Thing is I don't have any issues with the placement even though they slightly vary in positions. Just that the navigation buttons aren't as responsive as they were in Nougat.

So... this isn't an actual bug? For me its pretty annoying. especially when i'm on spotify or google play music for example and I unlock the phone and everything gets out of place and it rearrenges again. I factory reseted it but didnt work, was thinking about flashing a stock firmware through adb but now I'm not sure that it is even a problem to begin with.
Nav bar bug
It's is a bug and i have a solution ?
I have exactly the same issue with XT1710-09 RETEU on Oreo. I already got used to it but for me it's a bug of Moto Launcher. When I use LawnChair Launcher the problem seems to disapear.
Can you turn it off?
is there not a way a way to put the navigation bar on moto z2 play like there is the 3rd generation
This is not a bug. It's the design to prevent OLED screen burn-in
At first I thought the same. But after some research I found it as the design and to prevent screen burn-in for OLED display.
