Notification issue with Pie and bluetooth - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Since the Pie update if I have bluetooth on and connected, my s9+ has no notifications sound. It will vibrate but no sound. I have checked what I think it could be and tried the device in safe mode to eliminate an app issue. Seems Pie has a notification bug. How do I submit issue to Google or get help?
Any ideas on the issue?

So I did a network settings reset on the device. Seems to have fixed the issue.

I have the same issue on Samsung S9 with Pie.
Because of your post I reset my network settings but the issue is still there. (all the wifi and Blutooth settings are gone).
So, that doesn't seem to fix it.

You just need to reconnect to your wifi and Bluetooth connections. Mine worked until I restarted the S9 back to no notification sound.

Same problem here. If my bluetooth device is connected, but not in my ear, I don't hear the regular notification sound as I did before the upgrade to Pie.

Sorry, but in my eyes that is not a fix if it doesn't survive a reboot.
It's probably a workaround hack with nasty side effects of loosing all connection info.

Someone tried with a factory reset? I'm thinking about doing it, but if someone did it and it did not work...

I have done the factory reset and nothing has been changed, still same issue
I believe Samsung can solve this issue, but as usual they are lazy as their monthly update

Notification Problems in Android 9.0
I don't know whether this is the correct forum, but I am having problems with repeating notifications that worked perfectly well in 8.0 before the update.
I use an app "Prof Reminder or Missed Call Reminder" that allows repeating notifications with a specified notification sound and repeat period.
With this app, I have been unable to get repeat notifications with WhatsApp, the first comes through, but then after nothing (it seems the signal is dismissed).
When using BlueMail (email app) repeat notifications work perfectly.
Have checked app the settings, permissions etc., and everything looks correct, been through it so many times and double checked everything.
Cannot understand why one app works perfectly, yet another will not work!
Would appreciate any advice or experience, if this is the wrong forum please let me know.

Were are the Notification being stored since Pie?
It looks like to me they are in the system and not reachable unless rooted. Since Pie, I've lost needed sounds that no longer are available.
Is there a way to add back some of the lost sounds that existed prior to Pie?
Notifications for indiviual apps do not sound. I have an app sound for messages but it does not work nor do anyother app sounds work even the Settings Sound does not sound for any app that is requestiing an individual sound. Is this just mine or are others having the same problem???

My notification sound is reset to zero about every day or other day since the upgrade to Pie (no bluetooth involved). No idea what causes this but I am pretty sure it's up to Samsung to fix.

It's occurring on Pie based ROM's. Verified in LineageOS 16 & crDroid 5.4. When connected to Bluetooth , phone is not ringing in speaker but vibrates. So you'll miss calls if you not wearing the Bluetooth headset.
Reported at https://github.com/crdroidandroid/android_frameworks_base/issues/245 , but they mentioned this needs to fixed by core team.

Loss of Ringer and Notification Sounds

My wife and I each have the T-Mobile LG V10. Mine works great! Hers does not.
Her sounds will not work consistently. This includes the ringtone and notification sounds. I contacted T-Mobile and they said they have not heard of this issue and I should exchange it. I looked online and found no similar issues. I exchanged it and a day later my wife is having the issues again!! What are the odds??? The only constant between the two phones is the SIM card and Google account info.
Has anyone else had this issue or have any additional ideas on what could be causing the problem?
I have already double and triple checked the notification settings, including the priority calls and interruption settings. I have also performed the factory data reset.

Are her ringtones / media files on an sd card? I'm thinking SD card faulty? Or using stock internal sounds? Then my theory don't fly.
Another test, reset hers stock, pop in your SIM and use your account. Troubleshoot those.

Thanks for replying. No SD card installed. Could the SIM cause a ringer issue????
Maybe a smart setting sound profile?
When you exchanged phones, this you or T-Mobile backup and restore stuff? I know the lg backup will bring old settings back. After the Factory reset, how did you restore the phone?
Does it still happen in safe mode?

Great idea, however, I did not use the LG Backup feature. I did check the smart settings, which are all "Off". How do I enter safe mode?

Set her phone back up as a "new phone" dont restore or sync her account. Check from there.
UPDATE: Exchanged phone again. This is her 3rd LG V10. Guess what happened a few hours later? Ringer and notification sounds stopped working! Then, they came back on again shortly thereafter. Then they stopped working again! This phone has the same issues as the previous ones...only at least the sound works more often than the previous phones! Hopefully this is a software glitch and LG will fix it. I am very surprised my wife has had three phones in a row with the issue and yet I haven't found any threads with others having this problem.
Have you tried getting her a new Sim card? This seems like an issue that is more user related than phone, since it seems she is the only one we know of with that issue.
I'm not saying it couldn't be the phone, but the chances of getting three bad phones in a row with what seems to be a very rare error is pretty slim.

I completely agree, very unlikely. This time I made sure we got a new sim card. If it is not the phone, the only other option is a software glitch, but the only app she uses that I do not is Candy Crush. I doubt that is messing with the ringtones and notifications...but she isnt willing to part with it long enough to find out!
At least this one works slightly better than the previous two...so far.

My wife and I have the same phones and hers after she plays a game the ringer and notification sound will not play. I have check all the settings but can't come up with a reason for it. If she restarts the phone it will work till the next time. I was going to take it back today after work, but after reading this post I don't know if that would do any good.

You are correct, I'm not sure it would help. After my wife had the issue with a third phone, she finally had enough and traded for a Note 5. Interesting note, the only difference between her and I was that she played games a lot...specifically Candy Crush games. Perhaps there is a compatibility issue with those or one of her other games. Hopefully this issue is resolved for you, because the phone was great otherwise!
Two of the games she plays when this happens are hearts and candy crush saga. I turned on vibration with sound and vibration will still work when sound profile doesn't. Haven't found connection yet.
I lost ringtone but still had notifications and message sounds. Don't know what happened but a restart fixed it for now. I don't have any games on my phone at all.

I am having the SAME issue with mine. I have had it since November 2015 and got my husband the same phone for Christmas. His works just fine and mine does not. It will NOT alert me for my text messages for anything. I have checked and rechecked ALL settings.
I too am having this issue and yes I think it's candy crush. This morning I had a full lives notification icon in the task bar and no alarm clock tone just vibration.
I'm having this issue as well. I do not play or have candy crush. My issue started after the last forced update. This is my 2nd phone that has done this. I also have at&t

notification sounds

My notification sounds will randomly stop working and I have to reboot to get them back. Is anyone else having this issue?
I've toggled sound
Changed notification sounds
Nothing but reboot will get them to start working again

Yes i had that but a hard reset fixed that up.
Are these the stock notification sounds, or ones you've added? If you added them, are they on internal memory, or the SD card? I've had problems on other phones with the sound files were on the SD card. They'd work properly for a while, then the systems would seem to lose them.
Hey guys! I have notification sound problems also. I tried fresh install, hard reset, checked permissions and everything but can't get them to work. If the phone is sitting on the table, only vibration if I receive SMS text or WhatsApp or email. If I'm in a game, I have sound for all notifications. Can anyone have any idea what to do next?
Thanks a lot!
I'm having the same issue here, anyone else run into this?
I had this issue with my note 8, had to reboot to get messages notifications back. Happened pretty often, but never thought to research it. Hasn't happened yet on my note 9

Andriod Pie update

Hi guys,
After a full update of Android Pie, my phone keeps flickering/flashing during receiving or making calls, done some trouble shooting like reboot in safe mode and no app is causing this, done hard reboot, master reset, changed wall paper or even brightness so i think could be a bug caused by Firmware upgrade, however this happens only when calling or receiving calls from contacts, doesn't happen on whats app call or even Facebook. I also never dropped my phone so I am really struggling to find an answer
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

I think it's normal, because when I make a call the background colour of the phone app flickers when trying to stablish call and once stablished it stops and stays fixed
Sent from S.G. S9+ Duos
I dont think is normal, one of my friend has the S8 plus and it doesn't flash while receiving/answering calls. Also tested on another 9 plus with Oreo no flashing issues.
My phone does this, the colour moves up and down, its part of the UI
Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
I have fixed through developer options, its not normal to flash while on or receiving calls
Change animator duration scale in developer settings to 0.5 or higher
The background colour flashes dark and light its supposed to do this, maybe you mean something else

A1811 is not US version it's international version, included US market. No i did not noticed any sounds problem. But if say honest most time i using only vibrate notifications without any sounds Sounds is in smartphone
several people in the forum came across the same problem. is it a condition that I need to send to the warranty? Is it solved by software update? I also sent a notification from the feedback section of amazfit watch.

As i mentioned usually i using notifications without sound, only vibration is activated. When i did factory reset notifications sounds fine to me. But that was once, maybe two time when i used notifications with sound at all after these updates. So i can't confirm it's issues/bugs or not. But one advise which i got from Amazfit support when i asked about battery life which after update is shorter, they advised me to first do factory reset. So i can advise you the same. If problem will be the same you can try to chat before you will bring watch to seller or authorized service to Amazfit support and when after you will talk with support do what they will advise you or bring to service or seller. Factory reset if say honest most time fixing small problems in many devices (if there is no biggest violations): smartphones, smart watches and ect. Without detail review hard to say it's software problem or soundspeaker I have problem with wifi in my smartphone, when is turned on bluetooth wifi dropping, usually internet wokring fine in others device, dropping is not often, but when i turning off bluetooth works fine. Manufactor supporting gave me some advices which did not helped to me, need to test in others device or with others wifi connections, but i can't to do right now that. So it's conflict between wifi and bluetooth or just others reason it's hard to say. The same is with yours situation, about problem can confirm some costumers.users, but for others can work fine. So i posted my advises, i think the best right now is just to talk with Amazfit support before you return it to seller or bring it to authorized service or do factory reset, which by the way i recommend to do before connect with Amazfit support, cos i'm sure they will ask about that
thanks for the reply. i will try the factory reset. i hope it will fix it. thank you.. :good:
i did factory reset to watch and sent test notifications from amazfit watch app. nope. still continues same problem.. after all i set warning tone volume silent and only vibration. i hope it will be fixed with a firmware update.

This is support with chat option - https://support.amazfit.com/hc/en-us (if you can't see help/chat option, then scroll down with mouse and you will see chat window in left side of computer/smartphone), check from time to time are they online, coz they often are diconnected from chat. I can chat with they only when is evening in my country. I guest they are in US and connecting only in day time, maybe after lunch time
This is support via mail - https://en.amazfit.com/support.html, you can write from mail anytime, they will answer to you soon when they will can, probably
There is nothing to thank, I trying to help as much as I can. Sad that factory reset did not helped, try to chat with support (live or via mail, you probably just sent feedback from app, in feedback they don't react, i mean they will not answer to you)
I saw a post in Reddit from a Huami global support person in the Amazfit subreddit and i have mentioned to him about the sound problem as well as other things. He say it is a known problem and it is worked on. So hopefully with the next firmware we will get a fix for that.

Yep, and i wrote that here somewhere and on FB and other places. Its being worked on.
A problem with the sound is two months to me. The manufacturer is made to "cuckoo" - refuses to recognize the problem. A problem with sound exists in all - Europe, Russia, America.
I tried everything, settings, restart, unlock, new installation, Chinese version, factory settings - did not fix a problem.
There is an update rolling out at the moment that says it is fixing the problem. It is 3.2.3.0 if i remember correctly. Just have some patience. Should be here any time now.

Android 10 update broke calling

Got the update last night. Tried to check voicemail morning and was greeted with Alvin & The Chipmunks blabbing at me. It's like the speed of the call is x20 speed or something. It's completely unusable. Phone sluggish as hell, too.
Anyone know what's going on with the voice speed? I've never heard of anything like this.
I'm supposed to get a callback for a job interview I had yesterday. Pretty crappy timing. How is Google going to push an update that breaks calls like this? Absurd.
its nokia that pushed the update they did not make the rom right
Same here I told nokia about it and they told me to wait for a bug fix. I told them I wanted to downgrade since your firmware bug broke my phone.
Just wait for a bug fix? So use a Phone that cant make calls right?
So payed a guy to unlock my boot loader to try to flash a rom so i can just make the phone usable.
I spend about 6 hours try to get the rom to work. With little to no luck I was able to get into twrp a few times.
So ya Im in the same boat. I just got this phone back 3 weeks ago from a rma due to a bad chargeing port. Now Im forced to pay some one to unlock the boot loader and try to get a custom rom Just to be able to call
If I cant get the rom working Im going to have to go spend like $200 on a new phone today just sucks

Same thing happened to me with the sped up chipmunk-y sound. It happened during the dial and after someone picks up. Though it didn't seem to happen every time. Also, I didn't notice it on any incoming calls, just outgoing.
I tried a few things to fix it--rebooting, clearing some app caches, etc. Nothing seemed to work.
My next step was to try a factory reset, but then all of a sudden the issue disappeared. No new update was released/installed, so I just assumed the issue had been on my provider's end (T-Mobile), and they fixed whatever the problem was.
As for sluggishness of the phone after the update: I agree. It seems a little sluggish to me too. Not anything that is making the phone unusable. But it is noticeably more sluggish than when 9.0 was installed.
Have you guys modified the phone in any way like unlocking the bootloader or rooting?

I haven't. Just using whatever over the air OS Nokia pushes to the phone.
yes I did pay to unlock the boot loader I used linage from the rom section
it has all the bugs of the stock rom. Cant call out or with out the loud noise bug and no voip apps work
I did get the Android 9 based rom to work. it has a few bugs but its usable.
I more or less gave up im looking at a iphone now.
I spend 20 hours or more trying to get this phone to work
first the usb port goes out and I cant charge.
2 weeks after having the phone back I got a magnetic cable so the usb port would not brake any more cable. That was like $20
After 2 weeks android 10 more or less bricks the phone (a phone that cant make calls)
Then I have to spend like $15 to pay the poor guy to unlock my boot-loader (he did a great job)
I spend a lot more time loading the linage android 10 rom for it to have the same bugs ( in no way is it the devs fault im sure he did not know).
... can unlock your bootloader for a small fee.
I would say all android 10 based rom will have those kind of problems. I can only confirm it on the android 10 linage one
When I flash twrp most of the time the twrp would just freeze if booting form the phone.
I had no problem loading it with fastboot works evey time. So I would only use it install the rom and just boot it when you need it. I would not suggesting flashing it to recovery as it only worked some of the time for me.
Hope all that info helps

How to fix the phone call problems
To everyone having calling issues (distortion / squealing, or other people can't hear them), try this: Turn off Voice over LTE. You go to Settings -> Wireless and Networks -> Mobile Networks -> VoLTE, and turn that setting off. This fixed the problem for all 3 Nokia 7.1 phones in our family, when nothing else seemed to work.
Turning off VoLTE and wifi calling works, but VoLTE is important in my area with TMobile. Without it, too many dropped and missed calls. I actually downgraded from an Xperia XZ1 just to get VoLTE, now this happens.
I have TA-1085 running Android 10 that was pushed OTA on 12/25, while I do not have calling issues (from native call app) initially, calling from all 3rd party app (e.g. Messenger or Wechat) are not working: I can hear other side, while the other side can not hear me.
In addition to disabling VoLTE, I also changed the 'preferred network type' (see posting from author 'fiumaxx' on nokia's user forum, search there using android-10-after-update-on-nokia-7-1 as search string). I changed it to LTE/CDMA which works well for me.
Normal call sound is back to normal but 3rd party calling still not working.

This worked for me:
Go to Settings/Apps and Notifications and then tap on where it says See All xx Apps. Scroll down until you see the Google app and tap on that. On the next screen you see, tap on Permissions and then tap on Microphone. A small window will pop up, and you must change the setting from Allow to Deny.
After changing this setting, Google Assistant won't work (no Hey Google), but the fix is persistent after reboots. This makes me think the real problem may be with the Google app. We'll see.

Thank you so much for sharing! Works like a charm
Unfortunately denying microphone for the Google app did not work for me. I also noticed no one can hear me when making videos calls (Hangouts, Duo, Facebook messenger).
I then decided to factory reset, but did not help. Both VoLTE and video calling still not working.
Anyone else with video calling mic issues?

I had the same symptom on normal phone call (other side could not hear me). In my case, it was the Google Assistant not releasing the microphone, and here what worked: open the system settings, go to Google (service&preferences)/Account services/Search, Assistant&Voice/Voice/Voice Match. Them make sure Access With Voice Match is ticked off.
Or try opening settings, searching at the top for "Voice" and open "Voice Match", and tick off "Access with Voice Match".

Confirm this recipe works for my TA-1085. Thanks much.
I solved my random voice problems (others can't hear me on Duo video call, duplex voice on the other side etc.) with the voice match assistant workaround until hopefully gets fixed in a next update. Don't know for sure if the thing is only on Nokia's side or Google app's as well on Android 10, since disabling Hey Google solves all issues
Will have to try/catch on future google app updates as well to find out

I had the same symptom on normal phone call (other side could not hear me). In my case, it was the Google Assistant not releasing the microphone, and here what worked: open the system settings, go to Google (service&preferences)/Account services/Search, Assistant&Voice/Voice/Voice Match. Them make sure Access With Voice Match is ticked off.
Or try opening settings, searching at the top for "Voice" and open "Voice Match", and tick off "Access with Voice Match".

Under "Voice Match" I don't see any "Access With Voice Match" setting. What I do see is "Hey Google," which says "Access your Assistant any time you say "Hey Google" when your screen is on." Perhaps this is what your mean?
I tried this solution and it works, too. I think it also has the advantage of not completely shutting down Assistant's access to the microphone. Just waking up Assistant by voice. Much less of a price. Thanks!
Has anyone heard anything about a real fix for this issue? I've gotten two Android updates since the upgrade to Android 10, but this issue has not been fixed yet.
After extensive talks and inside info on Nokia's community forums, seems like a Maintenance update (MR) is on the way for May, which they say fixes -among others- both voice bugs. That is, the echo on calls plus sound distortion in some games (e..g Monument Valley 2 for me)
Cross your fingers everyone for a quick release and confirmation of the fixes!
Today was the day at last....! MR update showed up rolling out globally and echo during calls plus crackling sounds in games are finally gone
Better late than never NOKIA

Yes, they seem to have fixed the voice call problems with Whatapp, Wechat, Hangouts and etc since the Android 10 update.
