Notification sounds per app - Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite Questions & Answers

Hi all:
2 days ago I bough a MI 8 lite. I really like the cell phone but I have a problem that I hope you guys can help me with.
Is there any way I can give each app a different notification sound? I can only turn on and off notification per app but there is no way to pick a different notification sound per app.
I am in MIUI Global 10.3.1.0 Stable.
I cannot believe this is not possible. My really old phone with android 6 was able to do it...
Is there and app I could use for fixing this?
Is this fixed in a custom ROM?
Thx
P.
P.D. I also had the notifications magically hiding themselves from the notification bar. I installed Notch notification for MIUI from the playstore and at least I was able to fix this issue..

Try xiaomi.eu, there you can set notification sound per app and since version 9.5.23 notification icons are shown all the time.

[Q] Z2 Lollipop: Hide notification from lockscreen but show in status notification.

I found a few threads with the same issues here and here, but those are still unanswered. So, I'm creating a new thread to know to fix this problem soon.
I want to know how to hide the 2 apps from the notifications from the lockscreen, but not from the actual status bar notification.
The 2 apps, an battery saver and 3g network monitor are essential in the notification but I don't like it being shown all the time in the lockscreen. It also kinda blocks any new notification of other apps like fb, whatsapp, etc.
Any help is appreciated.
Attached the screenshot of the lockscreen.
PS: My first post here so plz let me know if I miss anything.
Go to settings>apps chose the app you want and uncheck show notifications
Then it won't be shown in the notification bar either.

You can disable all notifications from lockscreen but you can't disable specific one unfortunately
That's all what I know

Ok. thanks for the info. Lets hope there would be some patch released in the future by Google.
There is one more bug in the lockscreen in the new Lollipop as one has to swipe-up and then use pattern-lock to unlock the phone. Earlier we have to use pattern-lock only and no swipe-up.

Status bar - Notifications - really no official "fix"?

I mean, really?
Im on last official MIUI 10 (Pie) and I dont see any notifications in the status bar.
Does Xiaomi.eu have the notifications in the status bar?
I want to keep MIUI since I like it but really, no notifications? Is this, like 2002?
P.S.
I searched already and watched some YouTube vidoes and there is some Magisk stuff to show the notifications, but really? Nothing official for such an essential feature?

Hi,
If you have the 10.1.3.0 stable version, yo can try this : https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/themes/mod-notifications-notch-miui-9-6-25-0-t3857827
I don’t know if I will evolve this mod with future updates, but in any case this one works with the last ...

Notifications fixed? If so, I'm gonna buy this phone again!

Hello xda-people!
I have just one simple question.
I bought this phone like 2 months ago and sold it like a week later, because I couldnt handle not showing notifications because of the notch.
It was like "show for 3 secs and then show the clock again"
I kinda hated that, although I think the phone is just good for 260€.
My question now:
Is that fixed? If so, how's it now?
P.S.
I want to stay on MIUI, since I really like it.
Thanks!
EDIT:
Touch issues and stuff like that still persistent?
Any other issues?
Still not fixed, another feature brought to you by the flagship of compromises.
Never settle bro
Not as of now, but seems they do plan to make it better. Just note that I'm using a notification mod and it works so well. You can check xda for the link and steps if you still plan to purchase the phone again

Forget it!
Suggest u to buy Lenovo z5 pro gt.
2. Notification dismissed from status bar, expect to keep notification showing in status bar
As the space in status bar is limited for POCO and POCOPHONE, after testing with a group of beta users we picked below 2 solutions:
Keep AM/PM status and a notification indicator when there are unread notifications;
Remove AM/PM status so we could put more notification icons in status bar
Feel free to share us your preference.

Chinese ROM: no notification icons on status bar , no Google match

Hi all, I've recently bought a Reno 10x in China and I've several issues with that color OS : ROM PCCM00_11_A 18_96c98aa7
1) no notification icons on the status bar ; I've tried everything , but it seems that in my ROM there isn't the sub menu "notification prompt mode"
also I've no numbers notification on the dot on the app icon.
Basically it impossible for me to see if I've have new message on WhatsApp for example, of course I've notification on the screen look menu , but since I use every day the fingerprint sensor I never see the screen look.
2) isn't possible to configure Google assistant and more over the phone is blocking the automatic voice match ( I've a ROM with BREENO as assistant) :-0
3) Whit Google maps is impossible tho share my location with my friends (color is apparently is blocking )
4) problems with exchange:
I had no app for mail by default so Installed Gmail : ok it's work , but calendar and tasks from exchange are not showing!! So it's impossible for me to work!
No way , it's a mess ....
Could someone help me ? Do I need to install a "real" global ROOM?
How can I do?
Many thanks !
I've got the same problem with the notifications. Someone a solution?

Global Rom/ India Rom also has athena apk and no problem with that apk and notifications so i think problem is with something else in china Rom.
Can we flash global/indian rom?

For the application, you must also give all permissions, autorun and notification settings. It starts to work not immediately, it was about 5-10 minutes for me, but after all the notifications come right away.
Did all of this, but still no icons on statusbar.

Hi, can you tell me more how to do the tweak on Oppo Reno so to get icon notifications on status bar? Like explain every step as I am quite "green" with that stuff... Thanks
At this point there is no way to get notifications on the status bar. I have the same problem and am trying to return the phone because I already wasted too much time trying to fix this along with all the other problems:
tl;dr; DO NOT buy the Chinese rom version!
- Notifications are all disabled by default. You have to enable them individually for every single app, and most apps have multiple notification types that each need to be separately enabled.
- The process for enabling notification for an app includes changing notification settings, power settings, startup settings, and locking the app in recents, for every single app.
- Only 5 apps can be enabled to receive notifications (startup options).
- Can't change the default SMS app, it will revert back when you receive a message.
- Can't change the default launcher without removing the coloros launcher through adb.
- Swipe gesture will not work if you do remove the default launcher.
- Nova launcher badge permission gets reset so you no longer see notifications.
- There is no way to flash the global rom.
How do people actually use this phone?
Hi, I see... For me besides the lack of icons on status bar the phone seems good as I don't plan to change launcher or rom. ( I know bit boring, but I've faced the same issue with Vivo)
But guys have have you heard of Xiaomi Mi 9 global version has the same problem with status bar icons and they came up with an app that's available on Play Store: Notch Test. And it worked well. I tested it myself. Can we do it with Oppo??? I mean can someone do such app for Oppo Reno?

This is common issue for phone selling in China.
If want China brand phone, must get global edition instead of China edition. This apply to Oppo, Vivo and Xiaomi. I not sure on Huawei, maybe also same.
Yes avoid oppo Chinese version
Awful app restriction
Does the global version work as normal with notifications?
Thinking about buying 5g version.

Quite Simple. Install Adb... Then write
Adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.athena
And boom all the notifications will start working. App won't be killed in the background.

Can't believe that, as it didn't work on my side, and International version also has com.coloros.athena...

MIUI 11 9.9.24 Beta Install Feedback

Yesterday I installed MIUI 11 9.9.24 Beta ROM on my India K20 Pro phone. Below are my observations and feedback.
I was on MIUI 10 10.3.5 India ROM.
Installed Beta MIUI 11 by wiping Data, System, Cache. It is smooth overall and I find display better(it may be due to new font, don't know)
Observations:
1. Fonts are really good.
2. System Launcher is bit off. Swiping up opens up their own Media Center thing. (May be due to one of the launcher layout I selected while initial setup). Installed Poco Launcher, but it blacks out sometimes when going Home from an app. However it fixes once you perform recent app gesture and then back.
3. Downloaded 0.5 MB Google related chinese file from GetApps which install Google Services. Installed, but later while installing other Google stuff from inside that downloaded app, Google Framework failed to install.
4. Downloaded Google Play Store from GetApps. The installed all the apps.
5. Main issue was with Google Contact sync which was fixed by first installing Contact Sync 10 and then contacts. Opened app properties and given all the permissions. Restarted, it started working. May not work initially, but started working somehow.
6. Speaker sound is now better. It was very loud and uncomfortable earlier, but now it is much better.
7. Lockscreen notifications can now be expanded to read the content(which was not possible earlier)
8. System Wide Dark mode doesn't work all the times for non System apps.
9. Ambient Display has so many new options.
10. Samsung Routine like Tasks where you can schedule different system settings. Like lower down brightness to 0% between a time frame, etc.
11. Double tap to sleep doesn't work. Although double tap to wake works.
Overall it can be used as daily driver and I am loving it...
Great Explanation. Seems like a good build for a beta.
Can you do 1 thing for me?
I always wondered what are the new options for NEW Notifications when screen locked. Does it lit only the notification content like in pure andoird, or some other useless animations?
Can you post some screenshots of those options and feedback?
Thanks!
You can disable there media search when swiping up in the settings , I had the same issues as you with not all the Google frame work service not installing mainly contact sync , but overall miui 11 not to bad.
Hello, I'm on xiaomi.eu 10.4.6 and when i try to install the 9.9.24 miui 11 get an error zip treble could not fetch or install. I've whipped everything and tried 3 times but with the same result. I have rafael. Any advice?

Hope below may help, not sure though
Unzip the file, delete Compatibility zip(not sure whether I am spelling the name correct), then rezip and flash.

Actually I am using Ambient display, there it just put a small icon below clock with notification sound. Once I click on the icon, it go back to lock screen where I can expand that notification to read the content. You can also have different fancy screen glow animations when notification comes with Ambient Display
Will update you about your query in a while
Did u manage to get the ambient display notification working (the fancy glowing animation)? Coz i didn't even after enabling it.
Another thing issue is with app like WhatsApp being killed in background even after setting it as no restriction on battery saving and autostart app. U end up not getting any notification at all unless u open the app itself.

While on Ambient Display, icon appears below the clock with notification sound.(not sure if you are expecting more than this).
Whatsapp notifications are ok for me...Battery Saver set to MIUI Battery Saver...May be I am not using much apps or the apps which are consuming more battery in the background. That way Battery Saver doesn't come into picture I guess.
Seems like Working great.But ther was a problem with Gcam and Other applications like viper4andriod were not working properly in 10.4.8 which is based on Q . Can you do me a favour can u check whether those apps are working properly and give me a reply
The icon appear as usual for the ambient display. MIUI 11 suppose to add animation feature for ambient display upon new incoming notifications to rectify the issue of K20 Pro design having hidden led notification on the top of the phone. This is the one that im referring to as not working
Ive attached pic of the animation which i meant
thanks man for review and testing....one question, how about 75hz screen refresh rate mod? thanks bro
can I use it as a daily driver?
