Just got the phone on Sprint. If wifi is on and wifi calling is on, I get frequent (near constant) notifications indicating the location must be on for wifi calling. Any idea how to stop this? This never happened on T Mobile.
Wi-Fi calling shouldn't need location access. Try these steps:
1. Go into the phone app settings and look for an option to disable location
2. Go to main device Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi Calling and look for an option to disable location
3. Main device Settings > Apps > tap the 3 dots at top right and enable "Show system apps" > search for Wi-Fi Calling > tap "Permissions" and disable location (if available)
4. Main device Settings > Location > App permissions > tap the 3 dots at top right and enable "Show system" > look for Wi-Fi Calling and disable (if available)
5. Main device Settings > Location > look under "Recent location requests" and tap "See all" > look for Wi-Fi Calling and disable (if available)

Hi,
at some point the new roms started to include a program called "Locations" or HTC Locations, which starts now everytime i click on an address of any contact instead of googlemaps. Since I have a different navigation program and i don't like Locations, is there a way of switching the standard back to googlemaps or, even better, to get rid of Locations at all?
Thx
Go to settings > applications > manage applications > locations and look for "Launch By Default" and click Clear Defaults and try again.
tried that first, that button says "no standards set" and is greyed out... i tried deleting the data for Locations but that didn't help
Hi,
I received a message about connecting to open wifi hotspots on my phone, clicked more help and it brought me to a web page telling me to activate the feature through the Google Settings app. I can't find it on my phone, running stock OS, not rooted with Project Fi. I can't find it in the play store either. Any suggestions?
Settings > Wi-Fi > (three vertical dots) > Advanced > Network notification (Notify whenever a public network is available)
I want to use the Smart Settings feature to enable wifi when I'm at home, but can't work out how to set my home location.
The "Home" section of the Edit Smart setting page says "No home located in My places". When I tap on that a message pops up saying "Home is not located in settings for My places. When located, Smart settings can be set automatically...."
So I went hunting for a way to set my home location...I started with Location settings, which seems the obvious place. There's a "Places" section there, but it's greyed out. The slider is set to On however, and the greyed-out text reads: "My place ...locate your home for Smart settings".
Presumably if this option wasn't greyed out I would be able to set my home location, but I can't work out why it's not enabled. I have Location services turned on, and set to High accuracy mode.
Any ideas?
I've just found the answer. It seems that I had Mobile Data disabled, and it is only possible to set your home location when Data is enabled.
It's taking 40 min to download one app via wifi, if I switch to LTE it downloads fine. I don't want to use all my data downloading apps? Other wifi tests seem fine on the phone. Is there an issue with wifi on this phone?

Try this: Force your device to check in to Google servers to gain full access to the Play Store:
Go to Phone > Dialpad (10 dot icon) and dial *#*#CHECKIN#*#* (*#*#2432546#*#*). Do not start the call. The numbers you entered should disappear.
Within 2 minutes, you should receive a "checkin successful" notification.
If this doesn't work, you can also force a check in by manually changing the date and time:
Go to Settings > Date & time.
If you see any of the following menu items, turn them off:
Automatic date & time
Automatic time zone
Tap Set date and Set time and manually change the date and time so they're incorrect.
Tap Home (the circle at the bottom of your screen) and repeat steps 1-2.
Turn Automatic date & time and Automatic time zone back on.
I had the same problem, so i called google support and they came out with this solution . The first method worked for me.
Please try the following methods:
1) Settings>Apps>Apps> three dots on the top right>Show system processes> locate "Google Services Framework" and press on it. >Permissions>Additional Permissions> Enable both Read and Write instant Messages.
Thank you so much @ OrionBG for sharing the above step.
Since I have enabled this in my AL00, I've been getting all notifications from 99.9% of apps almost instantly.
2）Make sure the SIM card is inserted. Settings---Battery---- Click the gear button on the upper right corner--- switch on “Stay connected when device sleeps”.
3) Settings---Notifications----More notification settings---turn off "Smart notifications"
4) apps -> app Launch -> ( click on specific applications ) manage all manually ( all 3 options ) for selected applications. ( Whatsapp/facebook/etc..google..)
5) open the application and leave it running on the background by "locking the app" in the background. ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/mat...l-l29-t3887946 )
done the same for the past few days but only certain applications show the notifications like WhatsApp /Facebook/youtube/ google./instagram
no issues with Volte /dual-volte/ calling etc..
I have tested all these from WIFI - I have to start testing with mobile data. ( will update on it tomo )
but still,
1) I am not able to figure out the notifications for Line / Discord / all the games installed in the device.
2) after long hours of non-activity ( say 6 hours ) the applications on the background once again closes automatically ( even after doing the 3 & 4 th points mentioned above )
3) Apps -> default apps ->assistance & voice input -> ( google automatically logs out for some reason not sure why ) even tho i have removed the default Huawei app, I am not able to get the G-assistant as default.
it works for sometime and after some time, the option goes to default as "none" and I have to choose it once again back.
( yes I have done the 3rd point run manually for google assistant )
4) Gdrive -> My drive -> backups -> backup settings -> all the application data is showing as waiting for backup ( except the contacts )
not sure how to fix it - all options are greyed out.
5) Always on display don't show the notification icons - I tried 3rd party " amoled "but battery consuming - ( I will wait for the update in Original built-in software )
6) Screen recorder able to record, ( in-app settings I have enabled all the permission, microphone etc ) but when I click on the screen recorder
by default, the application microphone is greyed out and not able to switch it on.
7) for google maps history to work, I have to root the device and rename folders as per this thread ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/mat...eline-t3887627 )
but I haven't rooted yet. awaiting for proper method for rooting.
Above are the issues in My device ( EVER-AL00 Chinese Rom 8GB/256GB variant - non-rooted)
I have been trying to resolve the issue... but pending ones are the above which I need some help on. ( anyone knows how to fix the above let me know )
But the device is still awesome. until the above issues are fixed I will be using my old device ( mi - max 2 ) along the side.
Use glance plus pro for always on display with notfications
I don't see the most important setting here!
Settings>Apps>Apps> three dots on the top right>Show system processes> locate "Google Services Framework" and press on it. >Permissions>Additional Permissions> Enable both Read and Write instant Messages.

Regarding the receipt of notifications, this worked fine for me until EMU 9.1 installed yesterday. Now I find I need to leave smart notifications turned on, not off.
I have EVR-L29 9.0.0 and I do not have "Smart Notifications" BUT I have "Notifications Turn On Screen" which looks to be the same.
Thanks for sharing! I'm still not getting Google Hangout notification though [emoji58]
