Ambient display: notifications for all apps? - Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers

Hi
I was hoping that MIUI11 would resolve this issue for me but it doesn't. Is there anyone who has any idea about how to get all notifications on my AOD? I only see a WhatsApp, phone, messages, ... icon but for apps like Telegram there is none. This is weirdly inconvenient tbh.
I did a Google search and found some old topics about this but no real solution, maybe someone did find one and is willing to share?

I'm on 9T Pro but also interested in a fix. I use three different email clients and only Gmail shows a notification

You can add all your emails to gmail client, you will get notifications for all of them and set different sounds to different emails.

thats a issue with telegram itself, dont have any fix until now as i know...directly from the app you can config the notifications to show on lockscreen and all but, it doesnt show.
but, if you have no problems settig up a 3rd app to get that notificationsm just search...i belive there's some apps that can enable telegram notifications on lockscreen, but it need patience to make it work good.

I know you mean well but that is not a fix. That is what is referred to as a work around is is not suitable in my situation as it is a poor solution for my needs. That is why I specifically have different clients.

Ok. It's your choice But there is no fix, the only option is to ask developers to add your email clients to list of apps that appear
btw on xiaomi eu ROM forum exist thread for this

[Q] Help: SMS messages being sent on itw own?

Help please.. I was told that my phone has been sending sms messages to my friends on my contacts list. Without me knowing it, of course. What causes this? Any help would be appreciated.
You have obviously installed some app that has permissions to do this. Go though the most recent installs, and uninstall any that have the rights to send messages and see contact information.
Look at the sms's sent and see if there is any clue there, too.
ok thanks for the quick reply.. But how about some apps, that came already installed on the phone, I cant remove them.. Also some social apps, like the facebook and yahoo messenger.. They have this permissions, is there any way to unable the said permission? thanks!
Preinstalled apps won't do this.. Neither will facebook or Yahoo Messenger.
ok.. because those pre-installed one's also has reminders like those. So its safe for mo to re-install fb and ym?
its safe to install fb yahoo .
What are the contents of these SMS? Is it like a butt dial SMS or are your friends getting strange advertisements and links?
Sounds like malware.
uhm, they were receiving txt messages that I have already previously sent them. I mean older ones..
anyone? who has the same problem?

Yes, I had this. For some reason the texts were marked as unsent, probably because I have bad cell coverage at home. On a reboot they were all resent, regardless of if they had been sent.
I started using GO SMS and I have not had the problem. I also updated my kernel, but I cannot imagine that was the issue.
I also rooted the phone and killed off the bloatware. Perhaps it was the social hub, which I have now disabled.
could it be the "sms popup" that i installed? I installed it for me to be able to reply much easier to person texting em. Its like a pop up where you can already see the message and reply at once..
I looked at the GO SMS, I saw that it also has a reminder that it allows the phone to send text messages on its own.
Whats the best messga widget do you guys use? Thanks!

Not impossible. I think I did use that to, but the GO SMS has a popup of its own which seems better.
There is also a GO SMS widget that works quite well, I find. I prefer the popup and an unread message count shortcut.

Facebook Messages Toast problems

I'm trying to get toast notifications for when I get a facebook message but even though it's enabled in the settings, I still don't get them (this is all when I'm not online on the messaging hub). Anyone else seen this problem before?
If u r not online, how do u expect to get messages?
If u mean u do not get messages, just because u r not IN the hub, then I would have no other idea what might be the problem.
basically for me Facebook chat has been broken for several weeks now. I started on Windows Phone 7.8 and it still happens on Windows Phone 8. I can not get Facebook to reliably deliver me messages to my phone, neither via the messaging hub nor via the facebook app
It's really annoying, I can not get it to work properly.

I'm talking about the official Facebook application. There's an option for Toast notifications for FB Messages but it doesn't work, all the other toast notifications for that app work though.
Sorry, I do not use crappy apps, especially when every basic thing can be done via the Me, or People Hub. So I find the existence of Twitter, FB and these kinda apps redundant. Why the hell would u install things u already have implemented in the OS?
But that is just my opinion...
Sorry, that I cannot help any more.

Do you have an alternate solution to Facebook messages aside from being online on the messaging 24/7?
Negative. Since everything I need from FB is embedded in the system I am in no need of such apps. And any other app that has features that are already a part of the OS itself.

Expanded Notifications

Hi all. Was just wondering with notifications, is there anyway to view each notification in full? For example, if I get one text from one person, I can read the entire thing, but if I get 2 or more texts from the same person, they are all grouped together and you end up only seeing the first few words of the text. This is even more noticeable for whatsapp. Is there any way to solve this issue? Thanks.

It all depends on the app supporting wear
Latest couple of whatsapp versions support wear and show each individually (can even reply via voice)
I would like to see more that a title of an exchange email but I think it has something to do with exchange.
It is the same if you have a Pebble, Gear or Android Wear, with Gmail you can read the email, with exchange you can not

It all has to do with how the notification gets delivered by the app itself, nothing to do with the watch

SMS/MMS/Group Texts

Hey guys. I'm coming from a S7 so I will use that as a reference for what I'm trying to do.
On the S7 if I sent a text message to two or more people I can reply all in the same thread or had the option via a little check box to send the messages individually. However, when I send or receive a group message I'm getting individual messages.
It sucks because if someone sent me a group text I can't see who else they sent the message too. And if I can only reply to it individually not as a single thread.
I hope I explained this properly. Does anyone know if there is a setting I'm missing here or is this "feature" not supported on MIUI stock messenger app?

Total PITA but that's the way MIUI handles texts unfortunately. I have looked for a solution but haven't been able to find one...

This is really pissing me off! I even tried 3rd party apps like Google Messenger app but it simply couldn't send the message. Pretty damn annoyed right now

I'm with you...I tried editing APN's, multiple 3rd party apps, etc. and can't get a solution. It's one of the things I have to live with for the time being.
Yeah, it really sucks because I have a handful of co-workers and friends that I use the group text with and now I can't use it. It's nuts that it's not supported.
Like you, I tried messing with APN settings and 3rd party apps but to no avail. If you find a solution please let me know because I'm seriously annoyed right now
I seem to have it working on an app by app basis. It works best from the default messaging app, but I hope this is something that will be fixed in the future.

What network are you on and what are your APN settings? I don't even think the default messaging app has settings pertaining to group text...not as far as I could see
I found Textra to be the best workaround for this. It has some smarts to figure out the group messaging... better than others at least.

AT&T, and their suggested settings for NXTGENPHONE
TextNow is an awesome app I found that lets you make WiFi Calls and also text over WiFi and of course supports group text messaging.
However, you will have to choose a new # which is not really a huge deal. Just another option for you guys. Been using it for a couple days and it works great!
I will try Textra as well and see if it works.
Textra is the solution . Supports GIF too

Can't change notification sounds for several apps, here Outlook as example

Hey there,
I want to change/enable the notification sounds on a new mail for the Outlook app.
I got to:
Settings --> E-Mail section --> Notifications --> sound for a new message
If I select this, I will be redirected to the notification settings of Android, where I can disable notifications.
Anyone having this as well?
How shall I change the sounds then?
Attached some screenshots of the screens (in German)
Anyone does have an idea?
I do have this in several apps, but here it's driving me nuts.
I had the same problem with Outlook. Ended up with uninstall, and changed notification sound first thing when I re-installed. Worked like a charm.
Any solution yet?
I'm having the same issue. I tried unistalling, rebooting and reinstalling but the issue is still there. I like to set different incoming message tones as I monitor several different accounts.
I'm having the same issue. I tried unistalling too, rebooting and reinstalling too, but the issue is still there. Sound for Outgoing is ok. Carsten
I connected Microsoft about this issue. After mentioning that it was in a Huawei P20 Pro, this is the response that I received:
"Thank you, i understand but this is really related to Huawei devices as it works on other devices with Android Oreo.
I'm really sorry about that but as i have said, this was reported to our Engineering Team and they confirm that's related to Huawei devices as they are customized.
Please let me know if you have any other questions"
Typical useless Microsoft answer
Same problem here. Can't change default tone for Messages, Gmail, Outlook, Outlook calendar and more... According to Huawei support (Norway), the development team is aware of the issue, and are "working on it".
See this thread on how to access the Settings necessary to customize the notifications for all apps.
It works great! Let me know if you need help getting it working.
I've also created a thread here on how to do this with Tasker. I have unique notifications for each of my apps now, plus you can set additional conditions/triggers the other apps or methods don't allow. If you're not using Tasker yet you're really missing out on the potential this phone has. You can find the thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...-to-custom-app-notifications-rid-one-t3821776
If it is a Huawei problem it is strange that you can set notifications for some apps (Hangouts and Whatsapp for instance) and not others. You would think if google can sort it for Hangouts they could do it for the messaging app! Makes no sense to me.

It's because some apps handle notifications in-app (like WhatsApp) and others let the Android system handle them. The ones that rely on Android handling in EMUI 8.1 seem to be forced to a single default sound. It's actually a very simple explanation as to what's happening, as to WHY Huawei would do this I'm as confused as you. There are a few available workarounds at least.

I agree but why for instance are someone like Google inconsistent between their own apps (hangouts / messaging). The whole thing is nuts.

Yeah that blows my mind too. Different development teams, lack of a base standard and poor communication between teams maybe? That would be on par for some of Google's past work lol. A lot of programs have become fragmented from their own counterparts within the Google ecosystem I would think.

Perhaps because Android Messages is installed as a system app on the P20 Pro.

Thank you for linking this!
I now have a P20 Lite and my wife has an Honor 10.
This was driving me crazy, but that solution worked perfectly. Especially as I was already using Nova!
Cheers!
I have the same problem. Uninstalling Outlook and reinstalling, I now get a sound but I still can't change it. It only allows "Outlook Email" as my sound.
Same with the Sky Sports and BBC news app, I get the generic notification sound, no option for there own breaking news sound.
Same issues with Huawie P20 pro
I have the same problem with outlook, new mail notifications, very annoying!
for sent mail sounds, the option to change the sound is available, but no option to change the sounds for the received mail, it just doesn't make sense to me at all!
I agree it must be down to Huawie P20 pro
solved !
I have the very same problems, after reading many threads on here I came across this, and the app works 100%

If anyone still having trouble changing the sound for the received email on outlook.
Just install Alertify from google playstore and set a specific sound to use for outlook. Personally I really depend on seeing when an email arrives and I set up a car alarm mp3 to go off to be sure of it.
Hope this helps someone.
