Hello XDA community and devs.,
As a title says, - my Redmi Note 8 Pro don't vibrate at all. This is a new 128/6ram global phone (in white box), MIUI 11.0.2 PGGMIXM). I just received this phone 2 day ago.
1. I tried turn on vibration via settings everywhere, didn't worked.
2. I tried turn off battery saver, - didn't worked.
3. I turned vibration via notification bar by pressing on 'Vibrate' icon, - didn't worked.
4. I downloaded various apps from Google Play by search "Vibrate test" and none of these apps in testing made my phone vibrate.
When I asked my friend to bring his Redmi note 8 pro (128/8ram - from red box, but same MIUI version), to compare both phones using same settings and my phone didn't vibrate, but my friend's phone did!
What I didn't tried yet.
1. Reset phone to factory settings.
2. To flash phone using MI flash tool software for fresh version of MIUI. But I don't want to do this, because phone's bootloader is locked and I may lose my phone's warranty by doing this (not sure here, need to read Banggood warranty policy).
I already submitted a feedback in MIUI, just not sure how this can help me. Maybe you guys had faced this vibration problem before and can advice me about I should do next, because I have bad feeling this is about hardware and this Redmi Note 8 Pro is simple defective.
Thanks for reading and for advice. o7

Little update, I did phone factory reset, - still no vibration in phone.
If u find any solution, do help me too. As my vibrational motor is too low....
You can specifically test target the vibration motor using the MIUI Hidden Settings app from XDA Labs,
If you cannot make it vibrate and vibrate mode is on, I guess you have to return it.
Many other users have the same rom and I have not seen many complaining about this problem.
Good luck,

Hello guys,
Does anyone have problems with the push notifications on the Mi Max 3 ?
I have tried almost anything but can't get notifications properly.
I have prioritized notifications, enabled autostart and disabled the battery save mode.
Nothing helps.
I am on China Rom 9.6.11.0 stable.
Someone still have ideas ?

It's annoying, but you have to do three things for Notifications to always work 100%. I'm on 8.8.9 eu weekly and this is still needed. It's an Oreo 8.1 problem for battery saving:
1) Auto start
2) Battery optimization: no restrictions (this actually might be unnecessary but I do it anyway in case my phone battery gets too low)
3) Most important step unfortunately: LOCK the app in Recents (hold it and press lock icon).

I did those 3 things you mentioned but still no notifications.
I also have a Nexus 6 on Oreo 8.1 LineageOS and no problems with the notifications at all,
i have not even had to change anything.
exactly which app?

Ok, i finaly solved it.
It was the Nova launcher together with the Tesla unread app that had not the right permissions.
Mine:
1) Auto start
2) Battery optimization: no restrictions (this actually might be unnecessary but I do it anyway in case my phone battery gets too low)
From above
3) Installed App > {App_name} > Notifications >
Then
'Show notifications' : enabled
Importance : High or above
App Icon badge : enabled
4) If 3 still didn't work, try rooting your phone then convert it into system app
Not sure if this exists in every miui but I found Turn off MIUI optimization this morning while browsing the settings app and had no idea what it did.
I flipped the switch and now I get all notifications imminently:

Its a cpu bug on xiaomi defected device or maybe how XIAOMI/ANDROID configure its android system/power saving mechanism..it happens to many users but not all..After few findings, theres a lot of xiaomi defected cpu device and sadly enough ive got it on Rn5 pro, mi max 2 and now mi max 3 even Huawei got this problem too..Hope xiaomi/huawei will fix this in the future..Anyway after few research, finding and wasted times, the problem was its system PARTIAL WAKE LOCK was not configured correctly and it is really in deep sleep..this issue will cause in late notification at lockscreen after you leave your phone for several minutes, got led light blinking but no sound, no notification at all, etc which effect some users including me..i tried many things to fix this by changing roms, aosp or xiaomi eu, kernels, disabling doze etc but to no vail until i found this app CPU Awake inside google play store..install it and configure this app with no restriction, autorun and locked it in recent..and youll get all your notification back on lockscreen instantly..there is also no significant battery decrease by using this app (been using this app for quite a few years now)..Even though it has, its a better trade off than not receiving notification at all..you can remove this app from recent after all set up then reboot the settings will applied automatically..never touch the apps again if you want too, good luck and give some feedback..
Okay so i got the phone yesterday and have been looking into the phone since. I have a few problems i would like solutions for. Most of these i guess are bugs or settings related problems.
1. The volume rocker stops working when i clear apps from the app manager... I've seen this problem being mentioned by a bunch of people from as far as 2015 and there apparently seems to be no solution for it apart from the "Accessibility Menu" trick..
2. MIUI doesn't let third party apps set the lockscreen wallpaper... WHY??
3. I tried all profiles and settings in the phone, but i really can't get the push notification pop up on the top of the screen to work most of the times... In every other phone you get a pop up when you get notifications but with this OS it vibrates but doesn't show the pop up.. AGAIN, WHY???
4. I got the MIUI 11 update but it's Android 9??? I thought MIUI 11 is Android 10? When are we supposed to get 10 for the phone?
This phone is amazing. Really. It's one of the most comprehensive set of hardware in a budget package right now. But the OS is absolute garbage, and that's putting it lightly. Any help to maybe get rid of these problems/bugs until a custom ROM is out will be much appreciated!
1. Dunno
2. Security reasons, probably. You don't want random apps hijacking your lockscreen
3. Uh dunno
4. Android 10 coming soon

So I found what's wrong with the notification thing, XIAOMI somehow thought it's an acceptable compromise to turn off ALL notifications for EVERY app to save battery... -_- You have to INDIVIDUALLY turn on notifications for every app you have installed to get notifications as you did with every other manufacturer.... And it's not even one checkbox to tick, you have to go in a separate menu for EACH app and tick 5 or 6 checkboxes manually... WOW... I will sell this phone within a month if there is no custom ROM.

MIUI 11 is really annoying, but its good enough for me. Has all the essentials feature I need.
More customizability on MIUI 11 would be nice.
MIUI 11 with Android 10 update is imminent in the month of December
And what's the deal with some earphones not being detected when plugged in??? My Auglamor R8 just doesn't work without manually switching the audio output to headphones... This is SO annoying!!

Hey guys,
Just bough a brand new, unlocked LG G8 ThinQ (Sprint) from Ebay.
Vibration WORKS when receiving phone calls and text messages.
Vibration DOES NOT WORK when typing no matter if it is enabled in general or keyboard settings from System Settings.
I've tried restarting, I've made sure battery saver mode is disabled. I downloaded an app that tests the vibration motor and IT WORKS.
Is this a software issue or should I be contacting the seller for a dispute??? Any advice?
Thank you.

I've had that too and it just fixes at some point. Definitely a software issue

No sorry
In case someone else encounters this in the future, I've managed to solve my issue.
It was software: in initial software setup, I was restoring backup from my old android phone - xiaomi mi a1 - this for some reason was disabling haptic feedback. After avoiding this, the phone works flawlessly.
If someone is still having issues, an LG representative sent me the following:
"Sometimes a MicroSD card (especially if it is not legitimate) can cause behaviors like this. Try turning your LG phone off and removing the SD card to see if it makes any difference.
*Please start by restarting your phone to refresh the operation. Take the sim card, memory card out and insert them again. Turn the phone on.
*Next, try to wipe out the cache partition to make sure that all system files on your device are put back in order, go to settings > storage/storage and usb > tap on "cached data"> clear cached data.
*It’s worth checking safe mode to see if a third-party app might be your culprit. Press and hold the Power button, then tap and hold on Power off when it pops up. You should get the option to boot into safe mode. If the issues are gone, then you know one of the apps you installed is probably the cause and you can try uninstalling them one-by-one, or skip to the next step.
*Next, make sure that your phone is running the most updated software.
1.From the Home screen, tap Apps > Settings > About Phone > System updates
2.Tap Check for new system update to manually check for a new update.
3.You will be prompted if a new software update is available. Follow the onscreen instructions to update your phone's software."
Would like to know if I can revert back to android 9 as 10 is very glitchy. Some examples.....
Leave the phone down facing up and it screen wont close. Settings set to 30sec.
Bluetooth in my Nissan nv200 keeps dropping as well as my beats.
Lately to wake up screen with tap I almost have to hit it
When I get a pop up notification like a text or email while phone is sleeping I click the pop up but get no expanded pop up window or further expansion
I really hate this phone and almost want to do a factory reset. Will it go back to out of box software? Ir will it be already updated and will need to root it?

It's been asked more then once already and the answer was supplied more then once. Feel free to search the note 10+ forum here if you have further questions.. I am sure most of what you would/may ask has already been answered.
You can upgrade and downgrade firmware so long as the bootloader version is equal too or greater then what you have installed currently. Be mindful of what you flash, it's a one way street if you flash something with a higher bootloader version
The bootloader version is the 5th number when you count from right to left (starting at the far right as character 1).
As an example (red number is the bootloader version):

No it won't. Factory reset wipes the data and settings on your phone, but never changes the version of the installed OS.
On the other hand, a factory reset might help with some of the glitches you're experiences. YMMV......
Greets all,
My phone just updated 2 days ago to the new EMUI 10 and now I cant find the setting to stop the phone from ringing softly and then increasing gradually. I never had it set that way and I cant find the setting to stop it. When it rings I want it to be loud as I have it on max, I dont want it to start soft and gradually increase the ringtone. Any help would be good as I have looked under the sound settings and found nothing.
I believe its a bug - because it's hard to imagine even Huawei deciding it to be a 'feature' - and it's the same with the P30 Pro 10.1 update. As far as I know there's no remedy.

Wonderful. I know there is a feature that is gradual ring increase, just like there is the option to soften the ring when picking up the phone, but not to find it or if it a bug, they need to fix it, Cause I would be highly pissed if I factory reset the phone only to find out that it still exists and i did it for nothing.
