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.

Delayed Notifications In Android P

First off, I disabled adaptive battery in Android P. Ever since the upgrade from 8 to 9, I noticed that notifications are right around 5 minutes late. I have a couple time-sensitive apps that I need notifications right away. Gmail and another app for my home automation. In Android 8, the were flawless. However, ever since going to 9, not so much.
I also noticed that when I delete messages in the gmail app for gmail and an IMAP email server I have it does nothing with the messages on the server. I login to webmail from a computer and the messages are still in the Inbox.
Anyone have any ideas? I am going to try a wipe again to see if it resolves the issues, but I am out of ideas. I had the above issues in Android 9 beta as well. I would downgrade and it fixed them.

I have the same thing and it turns out it is a common issue with Pie. I have not found a solution yet. I have read all kinds of things people have tried and nothing seems to help. Sorry that I can't be more positive. Hopefully Google will figure something out and fix in an update.
Here is a two page post I started about the issue but there are also many others online describing the same thing:
https://forums.androidcentral.com/android-pie/904647-notifications-delayed-stopped.html

My thought is that the delayed notifications are due to Android Pies implementation of adaptive battery. Maybe try excluding the apps you want to receive notifications from in a timely manner?

You don't happen to have data saver in the quick tiles turned on by accident do you? That does prevent notifications from getting pushed. Both my parents had this on and a bunch of notifications came through after turning it off. I made sure to remove it from even being an available option.

been fighting with this issue as well, but it only seems to be gmail, and a couple other apps, my sms notifications seem to come through fine, at least as far as I can tell. I've turned off adaptive battery etc, nothing seems to make a difference. sometimes i can turn my screen on and all the notifications will come flooding in, other times they come through 10ish min later.

yes i have also these issue
and i opened thread on these https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-2-xl/help/gmail-sync-problems-pie-t3839357
also i tried many apps, but instead of gmail but yet i didn't find any solution

Made sure it was off early on. No change.
The best way to describe my issue is that once the screen times out and has been off for at least about 5 minutes, notification sounds are delayed. It is sort of like the phone goes into a deeper sleep or something and then the problem arises. As soon as I use my fingerprint to wake the phone, all notifications blast through.
The delay can vary. Sometimes it is only 15 minutes or so, but often it is much longer. It is almost like once in a while an app wants to call home or something and to do so wakes up the phone just enough to allow some notifications through.
There also seem to be some issues with individual apps and notifications that may be fixed when a developer updates their app for Pie. For example, most apps notify immediately when the screen is on or within that first 5 minutes or so after the screen goes off. But since installing Pie, Kuna always has a delay of 5 to 10 minutes before notifying. Kuna does this 100% of the time. In fact if I have the phone awake, looking at the screen when walking out the front door, when the motion sensor is triggered, immediately there is a notification icon. But the sound notification is always delayed. This seems like an issue with Kuna and they are well know for being very slow with updates and fixes but eventually they do fix things. But the notification sound delays described in this thread do indeed seem like a system issue with Pie. Hopefully enough people will have the issue that Google will figure it out and fix.

I am having same issues after updating to Android P. At first, notifications came late about 5 min, but then they started to vary some coming in 15-30 minutes later. Can't figure out what is causing the time difference but either way I can't find a fix. I spoke with Google support and they had no fix as well.

Nope, they didn't mention anything about existing issues or being aware of the issue.

Any one found any solutions or fixes? I feel like my notifications are becoming even more delayed now and have also realized I'm not getting a lot of various notifications at all (through many different apps).

I am guessing you all are aware of this, and have tried, however I just found this recently and thought I would share for anyone that doesn't know.... Settings > Apps and Notifications > Advanced > Special App Access ..... Lots of options here with one of them being battery optimization for individual apps. After I upgraded to P, hardly any of my frequently used apps were given full battery use. Haven't played with all the other options there, however just granting apps full battery seemed to help me out.

One of the first things I tried was giving full useage, (no battery optimization) for all apps that I want notifications from. Did not help. Many other apps are still being optimized. I thought I had previously found a way to turn off all battery optimization but because I do have many apps in that list that are being optimized, I obviously did not. Right now I can't find a global setting to turn off battery optimization even though I thought I did before?

So I noticed this morning, that the main app/notification that's super delayed (5-10min after the event should have triggered) it doesn't happen when my phone is plugged in or i have the screen on in my hand. Even after going through all the battery save features and making sure this app is exempt from them, it still happens if the screen is off, or my phone is off the charger. super annoying. wish there was a fix for this already!

Verizon sent me a replacement because of this problem. I was apprehensive, but got a very nice re-furb. Still have the same problem, but I got a phone that is indicated as Verizon on the LG site. In developer mode, the bootloader unlock button works. I guess everything isn't bad. I sure hope Google straightens this out soon.

This happens only with Gmail on my phone - WhatsApp and Messages send instant notifications. Messages isn't optimized, the other apps are.
I can live with that, no big deal. Perhaps disabling battery optimization for Gmail would fix this, though.

Interesting note: I was talking to YouMail support today about something else but I asked about an issue where I get an email and transcript of a new voicemail but when I go to the YouMail app that voicemail is not shown until I drag down from the top of the screen to refresh the list. Support told me they are aware of this but can not do anything because it is a problem with the "latest Android version causing delay". So it is becoming a more widely known issue and hopefully Google will fix soon.

Thanks for all the feedback. Speaking of delay, I think I have tried just about every fix here and then some and still no luck. Wiping the phone did nothing as well. At this point, I would almost like to revert back to v8 to get this fixed.

I tried this supposed fix, (reply #51). https://forums.androidcentral.com/a...ifications-delayed-stopped-3.html#post6355714
No idea if it worked for me as when you restart the phone you need to do it again and less than 30 minutes after I went through the steps, my Pixel2 got the October update for Pie and required a restart!

Notification icons staying in status bar after clearing/viewing notification info.

EDIT 1: Resolved the issue by reverting the ADB command I used to hide the navbar. So if you have this issue as well and happen to have performed a hidden the navbar with an ADB command or using an app designed to hide the navbar, that is likely your culprit, as well.
EDIT 2: The only method confirmed to hide the navbar without causing notification icons to stick in the status bar, is to root your phone and edit the build.prop by adding the following line at the bottom of the file: qemu.hw.mainkeys=1

I'm experiencing a strange issue with my stock, unrooted Pixel 3 XL. When a notification comes in, I get the lockscreen notification like normal. Then I unlock the phone and swipe down on the notification drop down. I'll click the notification (Gmail message, for instance). I'll read the message in the Gmail app, which marks it as "read" within the app.
But when I go back to the homescreen, the Gmail notification is still in the status bar. It doesn't go away until I swipe down on the empty notification drawer for a second time.
This issue holds true for Hangouts, Whatsapp, Gmail, Outlook, Slack etc. etc. Pretty much any app that gives me a notification is experiencing this issue. I don't think it was doing it right out of the box. Just seemed to start happening within the last couple of days.
Anyone else seeing something like this?

same thing on my oneplus 6 after pie update
think it has something to do with the battery saving features.

Well, I'm glad to learn I'm not alone!
Hopefully the next update fixes it.

turning off all battery saving features should work (i.e advance optimizations if its visible in p3, etc etc)

'Battery Saver' was already turned off on my phone. But 'Adaptive Battery' was on. I'm going to try turning that off for the day and see if that fixes it.
EDIT: Turning off Adaptice Battery and rebooting the phone didn't solve it. Status bar notification icons are still lingering. Pretty annoying.

On mine they go away after a short time on their own, it's the same behavior I had on 8.1 as of a couple monthly updates ago. I'm not sure that this is a Pie bug or I suppose, a bug at all. Anyhow, I'm not bothered by it, everything is the same as before except I can see the notification hasn't left the screen in the few seconds between when I dealt with whatever was there and set the phone down. Pick it up shortly afterwards and they're gone. Once I got over the mental "huh" of it and realized it doesn't affect anything it kinda settled into the non issue category for me.

Same damn thing. Even on my 2XL which wasn't rooted. Has happened since upgrading to Pie. Even before I started installing apps. There must be some setting we're all toggling that others aren't. Surprised this isn't all over the forums since it affects multiple phones.

I had this on my Pixel 2 XL for a day or so after a fresh wipe and setup, then it went away after some tweaking of various things. No idea exactly what fixed it. I was mainly messing around with battery optimization (on a per-app basis) and Tasker automations around the time it stopped happening.

I don't see this setting on my 3 XL. I know it was there on my OnePlus 6 though.

This happens every so often with my Pixel 2 on Pie

Confirming that even after the November OTA, the issue with notifications sticking still persists.
I find it quite ridiculous that given how many people seem to have this issue with Android Pie, regardless of whether it's a Pixel device or not, Google has yet to acknowledge or fix it.
I know some say it's related to battery saver settings but I've tried everything, including disabling all battery saver options completely and rebooting. The problem continues, no matter what. It's getting very annoying.
What's strange is that I never experienced this issue on my OnePlus 6, even after running Android Pie beta and full release for multiple months.

To/From Work Commute Notifications Missing

So, I was getting notifications in the morning that showed travel time to work, and would update if something changed like traffic. Same for my commute home. Well, I factory reset my phone when the January update came out, hoping to fix a couple issues, and that's when they stopped. I actually use these since there are several ways I can get to work, all on highways that can have severe traffic very quickly. In maps and assistant settings, the commute stuff are all set to on, notifications are also on. I'm not sure what the hell is going on here... Also, I was on Google beta, but I went back to stable when weather stopped showing up, no change. Anyway, anyone have any ideas here? This is very annoying. I don't want to factory reset my phone again...

Mine doesn't go off every day. Might take a little bit to learn your routine after the reset?

Mine was working fine before the quarantine few months ago, but stopped working when I got back to work. I have reinstalled google maps and enable all the notification and related settings. I even tried the same with my other phone using another google account with no success

Question Gmail syncing / notifications problem

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.

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

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.
