Is there an Issue AICP 10.0 Android 5.1.1 Restrict Background Data (Spring SPH-L710)

I have AICP on my L710, but, lately it has ben acting strange. I use it with FreedomPop so I don't have a lot of data and am trying to set it do auto updates and the like over wifi. I have these settings set this way in Play and on the phone. I'm also noticing that the phone is sometimes stopping on its own and rebooting. Somethings it goes through a long animation and is doing a lot of updates, other times reboots, but, I don't see it updating any apps. It seems to often happen when I'm in my car (not connected to a mobile network) while a USB cable is attached for power. I just want to listen to music that is stored in my phone and I wind up having it stop and reboot.
I have also noticed that the phone is using up my very limited mobile data in just a few days. I see it is the OS that is what is using all this data.
I know this month a few days ago at the beginning of the cycle I had it set to restrict background data, play was set for only update over wifi, etc. I also installed a better data usage monitor. Today I got a warning that I had used over half my allotment of data. While looking things over, I found that restrict background data for mobile network was no longer checked. I'm guessing this got reset back to non-restrict after an update that I didn't initiate.
So I have a few questions:
What triggers the auto update to reboot on it's own? I imagine the files and what not are downloaded when on wifi as they should, but, the actual reboot to initiate the installation seems to be happening on its own. Is there some setting to ask if I want to update now I could switch on to have some control over this?
It seems like this auto rebooting seems so be happening with a USB cable plugged in. I was wondering if maybe the connector is getting bad or something mechanical is causing a short or long an causing this. I can sort of understand something like that causing it to shut down, but, it doesn't seem like it would reboot automatically.
Finally, is there some way I can set it specify restrict network data on every bootup. I have looked at boot manager, but, this only allows me to specify what apps start. Is there an app that includes system settings that I could install? This seems like it would just being doing the same thing that changing the setting on the OS restrict background setting checkbox. It seems like it should be persistent.
Or maybe there is a bug in the ROM, that is overwriting this setting when it does an update?
Anyone have any ideas on what might be going on, what I can check and do to fix this?
TIA

Complete outage of device volume

i'm experiencing a complete outage of my (no root) n5x's volume, including alarm clock volume when using text-to-speech (3.9.16). this happens several times a day, usually after about an hour, but could be random, to solve it, i have to force-close tts as well as the MacroDroid app using it.
so, if you select a ringtone in settings you usually hear the tone when you tap on it - when i do so, there's no sound at all, nor if i use the volume slider.
- i use Outloud to speak notifications via tts
- and MacroDroid (or Automate-it) to speak well, things like, when i disable wifi ("wifi deactivated"..), or tells the time when the sun sets, tells time/every 15 mins., etc.
so you might guess it's the apps' fault, but it's not, i also tried automate-it app, and disabled Outloud.
- i tried everything to fix this, like: disabled battery optimization, background processes, notification priority/level, even a factory reset! nothing helped.
- i reported this issues to Google about 15 days ago.
- volume is on in settings, of course..
- (and dnd is off, as well..)
- one strange thing: i can play music using g play music
- it worked on M!
have you experienced the same?
do you have any idea to help? this is so frustrating because i used this all the time on my previous N4, and also on another LG phone, and it always worked.
P.S. I remember to have already had this issue when I used a custom rom on the N4, but don't remember what fixed it, probably used a different rom.
tia.

Google text-to-speech 3.10.10 does not fix it.
It seems to be a Nougat problem, doze or memory.

Issue is fixed on 7.1.1-dp1! :victory:

Places to enable notifications (L29)

I have the L29 version and right out of the box notifications seems to work great on almost all 3rd party apps. That's is certainly not normal for Chinese phones and is very much welcomed.
I do have one app however that I can never get to push notifications "HQ Trivia"
I made sure all notifications were turned on, and I also went into the battery settings and set it to manual and turned everything on in there.
Is there some other place or permissions I need to set to get notifications to work again? (Also tried clearing data, uninstalling app)
This seems to be the only app I have issues with for notifications, just trying to learn the UI so i know where everything is hidden as on my Xiaomi phones there were about 3 different areas you needed to adjust setting in for notifications to work.

Anyone else having issues with newly installed apps bypassing the Do Not Disturb mode?

Ive noticed that certain apps were still leaking past the do not disturb mode, even though they are not in my exceptions list. Then, I noticed these were apps that were specifically newly installed/re-installed. For example, I had to uninstall Instagram and re-install it. Before this process, the notifications were being blocked properly, but now that its newly re-installed, I am now getting their unwanted notifications.
Another example of an app bypassing the exception list is a fantasy football app called Sleeper. I hadnt had it installed on my phone prior to do not disturb being enabled. Once it installed, I started getting multiple notifications, even though i didnt add it to my exceptions list?
I am going to try to restart and see if that helps, but does anyone else have any tips?
Turning off DND, restarting the phone and then turning DND back on did NOT fix it.

I just take out the trash instead of playing with it
Try clearing system cache.
Otherwise likely a settings issue.
There's no fixing a trashware though...

Question Pixel 6 Pro won't stop playing notification tone during calls

My Pixel 6 Pro has a similar problem ever since the Mar 5 update has been installed. Since then, every phone call I made comes with the non-stop notification tone literally every second. For now, I managed to get around it by enabling the "DND Mode", but it isn't a long-term solution.
Is there a way I can re-apply the same update? or flashing a new one would help?

To be clear, you're saying that you keep getting the notification tone even after answering the call? If so, is it the same as your ringtone?
Is your bootloader unlockable? If so, Official Google Android Flash Tool (OEM Unlocking needs to be toggled on - you may not have to manually unlock the bootloader - the "site" will do that on its own).
It wouldn't surprise me if that doesn't fix the issue, however. Have you tried rebooting? Maybe clear the cache and app data for the Phone app (but then you'd have to re-customize the settings for the phone app to your preferences).
I'm not on the March update, but I also don't receive many phone calls anyway.

that notification tone, during normal time, represents incoming message. It is very short, unlike a ringtone..
Tried rebooting and clearing cache and app data of the Phone app. In fact, that notification could likely come from anything like WhatsApp, Messenger, Twitter...
I noticed that the repeating tones would not happen if the phone is on silent mode. So for now this is my workaround.

Very interesting, and strange. There have been settings in some OEM's phone apps you could enable to get notification tones at regular paces - usually once a minute - while on a phone call, but the issue on yours is only similar since it's constant / every second.
I stick with my recommendation of clearing the app cache and data for the Phone app. I also assume you're using the stock Phone app that Google provides.

In my previous phone (OnePlus 6T), the very same tone happens once in a while, but only at the moment an incoming message arrives. Pretty sure I am not getting a new message every second this time around, and I think it was triggered by apps other than the Phone app. I just noticed that the same symptom showed up when I tried to play video clips from certain apps as well.
And yes, I am using the stock Phone app.

Sounds like a factory reset and only selectively installing and configuring apps, or trying to figure out which app is causing the issue.
If you factory reset, I would first not even restore any apps at all, so you can verify if you have the same problem without any third-party apps installed at first. I would suspect you won't have issues then. And then when you install apps, do it in groups of your most important ones first, maybe at the most 10 at a time, then re-verify each time if you have the same issue or not, then the next batch of app installs. It could be a particular setting in a app as well, so it's possibly merely installing an app might not be enough, so each group of apps you install, make sure and configure them as well.
If you don't factory reset, go the opposite way, uninstall your least important third-party apps and see if the issue disappears. Keep track of which apps you're uninstalling in each group. Keep doing this in reasonably sized groups of apps until you narrow down when the problem stops happening.
Once you find which group of apps being uninstalled keeps the issue from happening, you can reinstall in even smaller batches, among the ones you most recently uninstalled, and eventually find the one causing the issue. In some ways I think it's easier to go the other way around, though, start with a factory reset.

Found the culprit!
Kind of silly: I have installed this app "Internet Speed Meter Lite" when I first started using my P6P, which is for me to monitor my real-time network usage (courtesy of that endless WhatsApp - Google Drive restoring process....). It basically refreshes itself every second and this morning I tried temporarily disabling it, the problem goes away even when the phone is not set to silent mode.
Glad I didn't have to come to the point of factory resetting the device, as I really don't want to go through the WhatsApp restoring process.
Thanks for all the input, much appreciated.
