Ambient Display - Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers

I have already read a lot about the various issues concerning notifications in the status bar. However, I am as of yet still missing a discussion on notification issues with the ambient display of the MI 9 SE.
I am experiencing that MIUI standard apps (like the Xiaomi messaging app) are able to shoe notifications on the ambient display. However, all non-standard apps (like Telegram, Slack or Email apps) are not able to do so. Has anyone observed differntent behaviour? Any suggestions on workarounds for this? Anybody already tried the beta and is the notification bug of the ambient display corrected there?

I see gmail, whatsapp...(mostly because i use them alot) but I am also missing some notifications of certain apps. Try to change their android notification settings and turn evertything on, and check if that makes a difference.

Do not disturb settings / overriding alert slider

I really like my new Oneplus 3, even its size, which I thought would be unbearable. But after using it for a couple days I have at last found something that I really dislike. From what I can tell, the do not disturb settings from vanilla Android have been nixed in favor of the alert slider. Thus one cannot automate times during which, say, the phone allows no notifications or allows only priority level notifications. Nor can do not disturb settings be activated from, say, a widget on the device: the alert slider must be used for everything. I presume the reason is that they don't want the settings to conflict with the slider (eg, going into a do not disturb mode when the slider is in the bottom most position).
However, I would like to be able to control these things from software. Is there any solution involving rooting? The only thing I don't want to do is install a new ROM (I don't want to lose the dash charging).
I am really interested about this too. Loosing the automated acttions such as DnD and Night mode are a setback for me.
Are there any ROMs out there which have at least tackled the DnD issue? The slider could be used then for something else (lock portrait mode, lamp light etc...)
Most apps and widgets I've tried since posting simply don't work, with one exception. I've found that the app Do Not Disturb by Cabooze (sorry, can't link) replicates the missing functionality and seems to mute notifications even when the alert slider is set in the bottom position. This is really not ideal (I would trade the alert slider for stock do not disturb in a second) but is an adequate stop gap.
Thanks for the info, that app seems to be working. But the feeling is the same. I fee like back in the days the function did not exist in stock, looking for tricks/apps and wondering if what I found will be reliable... still hoping we see soon solid custom roms which also offer a solution for all the missing automation.
You can surely use tasker for this...
i've designed an Alert Slider software override (non-root) for the OnePlus 3 (probably works on the newer OnePlus phones as well) It allows for scheduled setting of sound profiles. Need some advice on interest and how to Beta release.

SMS vibration in 8.0.0 (Android Messages)

I had vibration disabled for SMS in Android Messages but they're now all vibrating even though that setting is still disabled. Setting it to enabled and disabled again does not resolve.
Looks like each individual contact has its own vibration setting which is not changing based on the global app setting. It appears that we would need to disable vibration for every contact individually, which is potentially thousands of screen taps.
As notification settings have changed in Oreo and this only happened after the 8.0.0 update I have to assume it's a bug with the OS.
Am I overlooking another way to disable vibration for SMS or have you experienced the same thing?
Either the Google design team were drunk or this a bug; this is a horrendously stupid design.
It's worse than just SMS too, if you have an app with no explicit option to control vibration, you can not turn it off.
I upgraded to Android 8 just 3 days ago and I'm about to clean slate my phone and go back to v7.
They seriously need to add a global option for vibration.

Is somebody facing notifications issues in Vivo V9? If so, how to resolve it?

Hi, am new on this group.
I've purchased Vivo V9 a month back and I like this model. But, I am facing notifications issue in my Vivo V9.
Thing is, when I got notifications on Whatsapp, G-Mail, Missed Calls, Messages etc. so all of these notifications doesn't always shows up in the locked screen/notification tray etc. I am a freelancer and it's very important for me to keeping eye on my G-Mail, UpWork App (My Work Related App), Parallel Space (Using one useful clone app on this), Skype etc. But most of the times, I don't get any notifications on the locked screen even sometimes on the notification tray. I've checked with all the settings such as each app's notifications/permissions settings, general notification settings etc. everything. Even, restored my phone for two times. But, I always missed few of my important notifications. i.e. I've setup Whatsapp to show all the notifications one the locked screen, pop-up, notification tray etc. but whenever i got message on Whatsapp, it makes sound, popup appeared, showed in notification tray but doesn't show in locked screen.
Moreover, sometimes the notifications doesn't shows up even on a notifications tray.
I wanted to know that is somebody facing this kind of issue on this model? If so, what did you do to resolve this? Or, if someone has idea of all the possible reasons for this issue?
Thanks!

Whatsapp Notifications not working

I do not know whether or not this issue has been resolved, but since December I have not been receiving WhatsApp notifications on my Pixel. I get the notification sound/vibration, but no icon in the notification bar, or on my lock screen for that matter. At first I thought it was my anti-virus that was causing this issue, but I have since disabled the active virus scan monitoring, uninstalled-reinstalled WhatsApp and this issue still persists. TIA
Same here!!

Question Badges, notifications, push services, and lockscreen issues.

Hi all. I have CN rom (Tencent Games label). I previously had a Galaxy S21.
I have discovered that many of the frequent apps I use don't notify me well on this RM6. For messaging, I expect a sound, a screen wakeup, and a badge on the lockscreen for apps like FB Messenger, WhatsApp, Outlook Email, etc. How can I get this happening on the RM6?
I also note that when I am in a voice-call on Whatsapp, that after the lockscreen timeout ends, the headphones (speakers and mic) stop working through the lockscreen. But if I unlock, the app (and open voice call) are still there.
I feel like the lockscreen is main issue, but I cannot see any suitable options to change the settings.
Help?
Regards, Sirdiver
i've the same issue in EU Rom, it's a software problem and for sure it will be fixed in the upcoming updates.
Same issue here.
Has this been fixed ?
The biggest issue i am facing right now with this lockscreen is not able to see who is calling me through normal phone call and WhatsApp call. The screen does not showing any details of the caller & keep blank until i unlock the screen. The notification settings on redmagic is so confusing with so unnecessary options. The worst part, after cracking my head configured with so many settings only for the notifications, it doesn't working as expected. Waste of time
Do any of you guys face not having notification icons on the Always-On Display? Not able to fix this issue after tweaking most of the settings and the phone has already been updated to the latest version.
