Repeated Calls do not interrupt Do not Disturb - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Has anyone been able to get the priority interruptions feature to work on their P20? If I enable Do not Disturb and have someone call me repeatedly it doesn't make any noise or vibrate. I missed an important call because the repeated calls feature either doesn't work or I've configured it wrong.
Attached are screenshots of the settings. Priority Interruptions are enabled, and repeated calls are enabled too. The only way I've gotten it to work if is by explicitly whitelisting someone. I was able to configure and test that the feature works exactly how you'd expect on a Pixel 2 and an LG v20.

I have the same problem. Do you found a fix ? Its a good function if its a emergency without whilisting all contacts...

Jeez..So another huge bug without a fix in a recent firmware update? Or maybe they are waiting with a fix in Android P as it seems with all the bugs with this phone.

This feature is working only for unsaved contact in emui 8.0
While in emui 5.0 it was working perfectly like other OEMs for saved and unsaved contact also
According to shameless Huawei they will call it as implementation
So according to Huawei if your brother/family/friends number is saved and he met with accident and if he try to call when your in dnd mode,it won't ring and you to let them 2 die
Else don't save any numbers
This is such an huge bug
And they are not able to fix this issue
Never again buy Huawei phones

Call waiting doesn't notify of incoming call during a call

Hello, I have a small problem with my XZ. It's currently running 4.2.2 with build number 10.3.A.0.423.
The issue I'm facing with, is that when I am in a call and someone else calls me there is no warning sound that another person is calling me. The reject or answer call appears but there is no actual sound to announce that another person is calling me.
I have tried without any luck the following:
- checked/unchecked the call waiting option = it didn't work, if the option is unchecked than the person that tries to call me while I am on call with someone else gets a busy line, so in this case the option works as expected
- used pc companion to restore 4.2.2 as I thought that maybe some app i installed messed up this option = this also didn't work as after the fresh restore there was still no sound while I was in call with another person while someone else called me
So my question is that is this a bug of 4.2.2, does anyone else know of this issue? I goggled this problem without any luck in finding an answer.
Any suggestions or ideas?
Nice to see that the thread got 94 views but no reply. Am I the only one with this problem?
Can someone with the same firmware as mine test the behavior described by me? That way I could find out if it's a 4.2.2 bug or another issue.

In call sound problem

I have in call sound problems.
When I reboot I can sometimes place one call without problems for as long as I want.
Other calls after that I have no sound, can't hear the call tone and other parties can't hear me.
Also incoming calls, i hear the phone ring but when i answer the other party can't hear me and i can't hear the other party.
The settings for sounds in the accessibility menu and noise reduction etc were off and stayed off. (other forum tips)
I also tried numerous factory resets with no avail
Can someone give me a hint how to fix it?
I have stock 4.2.2 International version of the S4 Active.
Baseband I9295XXUBMK2
Build JDQ39.I9295XXUBMK2
Kernel 3.4.0-2015525
Headset
I tried a different option. I can call with my bluetooth headset.
When i switch to speaker the in call sound drops. giong back to headset will not activate in call sound.
Same Here
The same happens to me. Only the bluetooth option works every time. I have tried several firmware and kernel versions and nothing has changed.
There is a workaround that I could find but it is totally impractical: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2371034
In forums for models / ROMs with a lot more users than this one (Nexus / CM) people with 4.2.2-based firmware versions there are many posts describing what could seems to be the exact same problem, which they have been able to fix via baseband updates or custom patches, but that does not really seems to be an option for the S4 Active...

Same problem with my SGS4A. I was on i9295XXUBMK2, tried to update using the phone update option, which rendered my phone unusable. Flashed new stock ROM i9295XXUBMK3, now I can use the phone, although sound problem persists.
Making a call: reboot, call
Receiving a call: answer, hang-up, reboot, call back
Anyone with 4.3 that has this problem on SGS3, SGS4 or SGS4A?
Edit 21.8.2014
I had the speaker changed last week and so far no problems. I am slowly getting confident that I can rely on S4A as a phone also, not just tiny surf tablet.
I have same phone, never got this pb. However I got some SD card issues after updating to KitKat...
Partial solution... for me at least
Hi guys ,
having same issue, disabling 4G option solves my problem. But it-s impractic cause I want to use the 4g... in a huawei phone I solved same issue by disabling an option of "mobile data always on"
Don't know how it's related...
Same issue for me. I made lots of research with no results. Nobody knows...
same problem here with no solution yet

same problem with in call and out call .... searched a lot about solution and no solution yet
I had a similar issue with bluetooth calls. First call would be fine, but after that I couldn't hear the other person on the line and they couldn't hear me. It turned out to be some kind of incompatibility with the Google "OK Google" detection with Galaxy S4-based phones. If I disabled it from detecting "From any screen", this seemed to correct the problem. However the setting might return on application updates. I would recommend trying that and see if it makes a difference. If it's not that, then I don't really know how to help you. I moved on from that phone over a year ago and have been happier ever since.

[Q] Drive not announcing incoming call but missed call

Hello,
wife's Moto X is connected to older VW bluetooth which only let's you dial through the phone or pick up incoming calls. That was the reason I got her the Moto x, so the drive assist would announce calls and she could place calls hands free. However, when a call comes in, it just rings, no announcement. When the call is not picked up, the phone then says "missed call from xxx". So drive is working somehow but not all the way. And when the "missed call from xxx" announcement is being spoken (and the screen goes black with the red microphone circle), the phone doesnt react to any voice input.
I upgrade and downgraded the assist app, didnt make any changes. I'm using the "having issues with bluetooth - other audio" option.
Any idea? Thanks a lot!
Have you been into the settings of assist and checked the boxes of the actions you want when you are driving? Also, is your GPS in high accuracy?

yes and yes. Drive assist shows up as symbol in the notification bar. And it runs because missed calls are being announced, just not incoming one's. Wife has replace the stock dialer, not sure if that makes a difference, because when I disabled it it was doing the same.
Try this: How to reset Motorola Assist
Thanks. I forgot to mention that I tried to clear cache etc. But reading through the comments from the link above, there are a lot of people having the same issue. I think I'll wait and see if the coming L update will fix things. Sounds like 4.4.4 update broke it for some. And I don't have much time fussing with the phone and car at the same time since it's not mine. But as of now, Assist seems useless and I could just use Google Now for the same functionality.

[Q] Forwarded Call Notification

Hi there!
I used to have a dual-sim Moto G4 Plus, which was pretty comfortable for dealing with home/office numbers/lines/accounts.
My Moto X4 comes in a single-SIM variant, and although the easiest way to bring dual-sim would be to simply replace it with something else, I just like it too much to get rid of it.
So! I set call forwarding from one number to the one on my X4, whoch works alright. However, now there's no way to know when someone's calling me from my work number, and when it's from my personal one. I remember some phones used to tell you for a couple secs, and some apps managed to "catch" that notification and make a persistent one of their own. However, the X4 doesn't even have the brief notification. I tried using this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=joe.forward
It has a "Mode 2" option that's supposed to work even when no brief toast notification is displayed, but it didn't work either. Anyone know of some other way to detect a forwarded call? Bonus: If I could set it to avoid forwarded calls on a schedule, that´d be perfect. But right now, I'd just settle with the notification (tasker sounds like an option for this last part, though).
Any ideas or clues will help, by the way! thanks!

Automatic Call Screening + Smart Watch

So the new automatic screening option is awesome, except the note that "Automatic screening won't work if your phone is connected to headphones or speakers." Apparently my Galaxy Watch counts as this.
I never use my watch to make or answer phone calls, but I DO want the incoming call notifications/vibrating because sometimes my phone isn't handy and it let's me know so I can run and grab it if need be.
So a couple questions:
1. Anyone know if this behavior is the same for WearOS watches?
2. Anyone think of a way to address this? I tried disabling the phone toggle in the bluetooth connection, but that ended up preventing the notifications (though it did enable the screening).
Surprised more people haven't bumped into this issue.
I've been using my gen4 fossil and the automatic screen call works with it.
