At a glance widget - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

Hey everyone! Is anybody experiencing issues with the "at a glance" widget? It only shows the day, date and month. No weather update though... I can get it working by clearing all data of the Google app, or uninstall updates of it through settings and the play store, but after maximum of a few hours the weather updates disappear again... In the feed settings the weather updates are switched on but I can't even switch it on. I turn it on, tap on the finished button on the top and does nothing... Any idea? I'm on latest PIE, Magisk and stock kernel.

I have no issues here. Have you tried clearing the settings?

I think it's something to do with the Google app as I clean chache and storage, the weather update comes back and shows the current weather. Than it seems when it wants to update it, it just disappear and never comes back until I clear all data of the Google app again... Anyway, I'm not too bothered, just thought I was doing something wrong. Maybe with the next update it will come back...

Google Now Launcher not showing OK google from any screen

I can't seem to get "OK google" from any screen settings to appear. I only get the standard option from the home screen. A week ago I installed the launcher and it worked. I did a system restore and updated now it doesn't. Anybody know what causes this. I know I have the latest app and GPS.
From what I've seen inside the app, you need English US activated.

It is....any other suggestions? It worked a week ago now not....very weird issue.
The clearing the app's data, force stop it, and restart.

Google now "always on" feature keeps turning itself off.

I check it in the settings and then try to use it every once in while and it doesn't respond. When i head back into the settings the option is unchecked. Re-checking works until it randomly stops working once again. Any ideas?
Any ideas? It keeps happening.
Stock? Rooted? Custom launcher? Try signing out of Google and clearing the data in the Google app. If you're using a custom launcher, make sure there aren't settings in there that are turned off. I know Nova has something along the lines of turning on or accessing always listening. Good luck.
Sorry - can't help you, except I will confirm it did it regularly on 6.0.0 for mine -- every few days -- and (fingers crossed) has stopped turning itself off on 6.0.1.

stock, not rooted. I use the standard launcher. I am using 6.0.1 at the moment but it did it beforehand as well. I tried clearing the search portion of the google app. Apparently they split the "clear data" section for this app in to two separate pieces. One's for search stuff, the rest of for launcher stuff. Maybe i should clear that too. It doesn't seems like that would be related though. Looks like i got an update to the google app today though so i hope that'll help something. If not i'll try the signout and clearing it all like you suggested.

Android P Beta: Weather on AOD not consistent / not working

When I enrolled into Beta and upgraded I saw that on AOD and Lock Screen the current weather is shown.
Then it was disappeared shortly after that.
I discovered, that disable and enable Google app temporarilly fix the problem. When observing its behavior I saw, that it won't get updated. I don't know if the data is pulled from Google app, or from somewhere else. It stays the same, despite the Glance Widget shows the change in temperature.
For just in case I also check the Pixel ambient services app and grant location permission there, for just in case...
Bottom line: Weather on AOD & Lock screen is shown for limited amount of time, but when it should be updated, it is lost.
Did any of you played with it? Does it work for anyone from you?
Happening to all of us. No known fix yet. I assume it is a bug they will need to fix.
My alarm goes missing as well. The first week on dp2 I just chalked it up to a dirty flash. I factory reset Tuesday and had both the weather and my alarm show for the first 2 or 4 hours. They both have been missing ever since.

you will have to revert the google app to the version that shipped with the P beta, and turn off automatic updates for the google app.
version 7.24.34.21.arm64 is the only one known to work.
Confirmed working: It does show up after restart & it does autoupdate. Been working fine for a whole day now.

It did for me for about one shift at work, just a few hours. Now it's gone again.

Did you enable location permission for Pixel Ambient Services app? I did.. Anyway I will see how it will behave. I did perform a couple of restarts in the meantime. First is off, but when swiping to Google now and refresh the Feed it shows up instantly and working fine ever since.
Location permission is enabled. It's not that I really need the weather, but I like it. Maybe the next DP will fix that.

Question Some notifications not showing + Google Assistant issue

Hi There,
I'm running the latest available version of Color OS11 on my OP9Pro in China. So it is the stock OS that came with the device - updated for the latest patch etc.
I have a couple of issues that I'm hoping to get some help with or thoughts on how to fix it.
1. Some apps just don't show any notifications. All notifications are allowed and the apps themselves work fine, but I don't get any notifications at all.
2. Google assistant works, but I can't get 'Hey Google' to work, and in the settings for voice match, it 'not available for this language'. I've looked at other forums and posts on this and followed the instructions and changed the language as suggested but it still doesn't work.
3. The phone automatically switches off 'high performance mode'. After manually turning on this setting, it switches this off automatically at some point. Do you know why that would happen? Is it something that happens when the battery dips under 20%?
Thanks, and apologies if some of this has been covered already, but I wasn't able to find a fix to this.
Cheers,
A

I don't have a ton of great answers, but I can commiserate. I've noticed with the latest OTA though that the notifications have been much better. Used to be that Gmail would never tell me when I have a message until I go into the app which defeats the purpose. Now, it gives me notifications in a timely manner.
Something important is to make sure you minimize battery savings in the settings as I think OxygenOS is too overzealous in killing apps. So, I turned off battery optimization to any app I needed notifications from that were acting up: Gmail and calendar were the main ones. Some apps like Facebook gave notifications anyway, so it's really strange as to what apps weren't working and which were.
I'm not sure about the language thing. As for high performance mode, it's likely a battery saving issue. Oneplus really seems to like to throttle things back to save battery (or hide their abysmal battery performance relative to competitors). But I'm not sure on that one.
Thanks! The high performance toggle is indeed linked with battery levels.
I'm using coloros, not oxygen os as I'm in China. So not sure if coloros is doing the same as OoS, but I have disabled battery optimization for the apps that I want notifications for but don't get it.
Even some notifications in Gmail, outlook are delayed which sometimes defeat the purpose. For example, it game me a reminder at 12:45 for my 12:30 meeting... Haha
A missing update could be the culprit if your Reminder notifications aren't coming through. Make sure the app is up to date, and then try Google Reminders again. Clear the app cache data. Clear the cache data for Google Reminders, and then try using the app again.
Thanks, all those apps are up to date, and I'm running the latest version of coloros available for now. hoping that switching to coloros 12 will fix it.
Stupid question - where do I find google reminders.. didn't seem to see it anywhere

General Home and Recent Apps gesture (and button) not working after Oxygen OS 13 update

I updated my OnePlus 9 Pro(LE2121_11_F.16) to Oxygen OS 13.0. But after the update, my home and recent apps gesture completely stopped working. I've rebooted the phone multiple times. I've also updated all my apps. I've cleared data for the apps - System Launcher, Gesture_motion Services and Gesture&motions. But none of it worked.
Factory reset

Have you solved it? I also encountered the same thing. Home and recent apps (gesture/button) as well as Setting button on notification bar are not working.

It was solved as the 2nd answer. Factory reset and everything works. Had to do the same, and no issues since.

Thanks for your reply. Factory reset isn't always ideal. Really hope there is any other solution.
I had this on the second day of upgrade. Before that I had edited the quick settings tiles and frozen some OOS bloatware using Titanium. After clearing cache and rebooting multiple times, I tried undoing all the changes (restored the tiles to the initial state and thawed all the bloatware). Nothing happened immediately, but after an hour or so it was fixed, I don't know how. Maybe just coincidence. Anyway mentioned it here in case it works for you.

Hello even I'm facing the issue and did it happen after the factory reset?

likewise, I think its because we edited the tiles as I clearly remember I just did that and the next day it stopped working the notification settings icon, back and recent apps. So if we factory reset and edit the tiles again will it reappear (the issue)?
I had the same issue but mine happened after finishing the setup. I lost internet at my house an couldn't compete the setup it said it needed wifi. So I went on with my day and that night I finished it and had this issue. After that I couldn't fix it. I had to do a factory reset and then everythings been working fine. I think it's an issue with the upgrade.
May 2023. OnePlus 8T f16 update.. it's still happening. Anyway to get it to work without factory reset? Ive tried Nova launcher trick, clearing settings, clearing data from apps for gestures launcher etc, reboots, reverting the tiles. Any other methods to make it work?
Hi,
I have the same issue with my OP9, but strangely enough, it only happens with third-party launchers. When on the system launcher, everything's peachy, but if I use another launcher as default (regardless of what it is, Nova, Microsoft, Lean, you name it), the Home button starts acting out again.
I can tap the Overview button, or the Back button, though, and with a third-party launcher, Gesture Navigation will work OK, more or less.
Maybe OP/Oppo don't like us using third-party launchers after all...
There's a new system update based on Oxygen OS 13.1 (LE2115_13.1.0.5..(EX1)) that seems to have solved the problem somehow.
Security Update dates back to April 2023, though...
EDIT: using Hyperion Launcher, the issue is still there and seems to occur when you are two levels or more deep in an app. For example, if you open the Play Store app, go to your apps and try to update them, you can close the app with the Home button. However, if you open Settings and dive down into the various menus more than three times, the Home button stops working.
