WiFi notification setting broke after 5.1.1 update - Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am always aware when I'm connected to WiFi so I've had the setting in WiFi settings for notifications when connected or nearby WiFi turned off. But when I did the 5.1.1 update it seems to be showing the persistent notification again. When I went into the settings the box is still unchecked and when I toggle it is does nothing at all. Has anyone else experienced this or know how to fix it? Any information would be appreciated.
Things I've already tried 1) restart phone both with it checked and unchecked 2) factory reset phone 3) force stopped notification

The pesky noticed can not be removed as far as I know.

That's weird. It was on 5.0.1

Looks like a bug...

in order to get rid of the notification (i know how to do this cause of the same exact bug on the S4 a few years back)
1. Settings
2. Applications
3. Application Manager
4. Swipe to all
5. Tap on android system
6. Tap on force stop.
That should get rid of the notification.

Not worth the hastle everytime the wifi is turned on!

Just wanted to update everyone who might have the same problem. It seems like they fixed this in another security update Verizon pushed out recently. I am now on Build Number LMY47X.N910VVRU2BPA1. I'm glad they addressed this because it was really annoying.

hi
i have the same problem and i looked every web site and i got no thing
even i signed into the network still give me a notification saying i have to singe in , and it disconnect after some minute

Verizon Marshmallow Location Bug

Anyone noticing the location GPS is funky? I typically turn my GPS off when not in use and I am finding that when using the PullDown toggle, the annoying Location Icon/Notification gets stuck on, and other times won't come on after its been off.
The only way to fix it is to turn it off and reboot, or turn it on and reboot. But after it gets toggles, it gets screwy again.
I haven't done much testing yet to see if it is just the icon or actually the GPS failing to toggle. Also I am wondering if going through settings to toggle is a work around.
I am out of town for work but wanted to quickly throw it out there to see if anyone others experience this weird behavior. I don't have time this week to really sit down and play with it, so a quick fix (if available) is known.
+1 on this. Just noticed the other day when I had to navigate to a party. I arrived and turned off location and it was still stuck in notification tray. Think it went away eventually, but I didn't have time to reboot so not sure what happened. Will keep an eye on it next time though.
Also, noticed the phone has trouble switching from 1x back to 4g. Has to use airplane mode to cycle the radio.
Yea I noticed that too. Again I am traveling and normally have GPS off and only turn it on when I actually launch Google Maps.
I was listening to Pandora mostly with no issues on my 8hr drive but twice, I think, I had to toggle airplane mode to get back data.
The Location notification is ridiculous. I mean its stupidly annoying already but now its getting stuck.

Just chiming in. I haven't noticed these problems. Then again I've only been on MM for 5 days now.
I get the location icon stuck in the tray as well. Reboot is the only cure.
New Wifi lag is the biggest problem for me on MM.

You really only notice it if you turn off Location, the little PIN notification gets stuck and doesn't go away on the status bar and notification that says Location on or something.
Pretty annoying.
Also my wifi just randomly stops working. I have to disconnect, reconnect and it starts again. Different topic though.

Ah ok, I hadn't had that problem. As of last night I downgraded and then rooted and removed bloatware. So doubt I'll see them problems. Though I am facing a few minor ones mainly with the all apps dual window mod. But like you said that's a different topic. Main reasons I downgraded was of course because I like full control over something I own. But wanted the 60fps video recording which I'm pretty sure we can all agree should have been included with the G4. I also finally found a nice work around for enabling silent mode with the actual volume button since the xposed module with true silent didn't work for the G4. Sorry I'm getting off topic here. But hope you find a fix.
Yea I was good with lollipop. Marshmallow hasn't included anything except bugs. I resisted the upgrade for a while but I was not rooted and the System Update popping up constantly was drivingme crazy.
A6 fixed a few annoying bugs for me but brought others.
The location notification getting stuck can happen even with location on, I never turn mine off.
Biggest problem for me WiFi disconnecting at 15%, and needing a reboot to reconnect.
Yea the location notification does get stuck regardless if turned off or not.
I ended up getting rid of the G4 because of the problems. (Qi Charging, wifi disconnects, etc).

Silent mode goes on automatically during night

Sometime during night silent mode goes on, and it's on when I wake up. Then I have to use the slider to get the phone back on normal state. Quite annoying. Slider was in normal mode all the night. Anyone else? How to stop that behavior?
This happened to me too. Did you have Do Not Disturb settings set on your prior device and then restore the back up to your OP3? I have read that this is the cause of the problem - the old setting transfers over and there is no way to change them. I went into the global setting for app notifications and reset all apps. This worked for others and appears to have worked for me as well.
Having the same issue here.

Yes, actually I had it on on my OPO and I transferred apps from it to the OP3 using the installation wizard's nfc method. I did the reset, let's see if it did help..
I tested resetting notifications, did not help
Me too. Migrated from my old phone using the NFC transfer wizard. Old phone was setup to go to silent 10pm - 7am. It appears the setting is transferred over but at 7am the OP3 doesn't exit silent mode. I then have to toggle the switch to take the phone out of silent but still seem to have issues with notifications sounds afterwards.
I solved it by installing new custom rom and I didn't use restore function this time..
i too am having this issue. i attempted resetting all apps settings but that didn't work.
has anyone figured out how to fix this without factory reset or installing a custom rom?
Add me to the list and I set it up as a new device. Only had the phone a day before I applied the 3.2.0 update so I can't say if was happening before. Hope there is a fix for this soon.
IMO this is because Google is syncing the DND preferences from your Google account, regardless of whether you used the the whole "set up nearby device" thing
I have this issue except Silent mode automatically turns on throughout the day for me. I have factory reset my device and setup the device as new and the issue continues. Now I'm really unsure how to fix this.
Same issue and updating to 3.2.1 didn't fix it.
I've the same issue!
I've noticed that the sound (also from the notifications) can be turned on again (for that day) by switching off, and on the Alert Slider, and then adjusting the volume-sliders in settings.
I don't think it's a Google issue as I have 4 different phones on my account in the last month and none have done this. Just ordered another 6P while they were 20% off in warehouse deals so I'll swap over to this phone Monday and see if the issue follows. For now I'm playing with Tasker to reset all the volumes at 7am.
I've got the same issue. But I did not transfer any settings to my op3.
There's nothing in my "do not disturb" menu, and nowhere to set up automatic silent mode, as far as I can see.
Same issue faced, no solution or fix found up till now.
Me too facing the same problem.. Even in day time it goes automatically to silent mode. So incoming calls doesn't sound and it solves only when I restart the phone.. And after sometime the problem is occurring again and again.. Does anyone found the solution?
I had the same problem in my opo too..
Same here. Since the 3.2.1 update my OP3 sets to Silent overnight. Some has said it's True Caller Spam Blocker, but as I don't have this it's not a solution for me. Tried the usual reset but no luck. Really need a fix for this as I need to get important calls/texts overnight. Not a hardware problem that I can see as fine before update; broken afterwards, and the physical switch works very well.
Also, I've not used any restore function whist setting up.
It would be useful if people experiencing this problem could mention it on the OP support forum. I'm using the threads...
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/do-not-disturb-notifications-problem.451989/page-7
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/possible-bug-with-oxygen-3-2-1.455413/
yes - please do and add @oneplus to your answer to adresse OP team directly. Thanks.
This is related to OOS only, i installed custom rom CM based nd didn't face this issue. Then installed.OOS no restore setup as new device still same issue with no ringtone.
The fix should come from Oneplus

Verizon S8+ Bugs and Issues

Hi everyone,
I have 2 Galaxy S8+ from Verizon and here are my issues:
Past issues:
One of them did not come with the Galaxy Apps store (Not the plays store), and that phone also experienced the DQA issue
Current issues:
If I turn on Fingerprint gestures, the fingerprint sensor will stop working, this was an issue I had from the day I got the phone and has continued even through the updates. Here's a thread I made about it a while ago : https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/help/fingerprint-sensor-t3595614
My internal speaker has detached, or at least I think that is the issue, as sometimes when I am in a phone call and shake the phone just a little bit, it will either start making a weird buzz sound or completely cut off the sound. Shaking it again will fix it, that's why I think it's a physical issue. I haven't dropped my phone and just in case I ever do, I have a case and a screen protector on it, and neither of them (phone, case, screen protector) have any damage marks on them.
The Biggest Issue: Currently this is the most annoying bug I am experiencing is that whenever I go to lock screen and security in the setting app, it crashes the settings app. I also can't use the search function in the settings app, as it crashes the app withing a few seconds. The lock screen and security is the only menu in which I experience this, I am 99% sure this is due to me turning on Secure startup. I had it turned on a few days after I got the phone and it worked great, I had to turn it off once, about a month ago in order to get a quicker boot. After that I was experiencing issues turning it back on (meaning I turned it on, rebooted the phone and it would not work) , after some persistence, I was able to get it to work and it has worked and still works.
One thing to mention is that I had done the most recent system update, I am not sure this issue was caused by at, since the inability so search in the setting menu has happened prior to the latest update.
I have tried everything other than a full factory reset (wiping all cache, wiping apps cache, reset setting, reset network settings), which I refuse to do, It is absolutely unacceptable for me to pay this much for this phone and have so many issues with it, I have factory resetted my phone (Samsung's recommendation) in order to fix the first issue listed above, multiple times and it did not work.
At this point I really don't know what to do, Samsung support has been useless in this, I don't wish to replace my phone right now as I need it to much to even give up for one day, If anyone has any advice/fix other than factory resetting, I'll happily try it.
Thank you,
GGgamer16
Sounds like a factory reset is needed. I just tried all you mentioned with zero problems on the newest update w/ navbar options and experienced none of that. Speaker problem is most likely hardware related.
Anyone had any luck getting rid of the wifi disconnect? The issue where wifi disconnects showing a ! next to the wifi symbol on the status bar?

You try changing your WiFi channel? Using 5ghz or 2.5ghz? I use Wifi 100% of the time I'm home and never have any issues with disconnects.

Yeah I have tried changing channels. It didn't matter. I'm on 2.4 GHz.
I found a possible fix from another forum. I changed my wifi encryption from wpa2 AES/tkip to wpa2 tkip only last night and was rock solid after that point. I didn't have any more wifi issues... Just wanted to mention this change for other people. I usually got 5+disconnects every night. I'm gonna try just the AES option tonight and see how it acts.

Can't setup internet after factory reset (stock MM H815T)

I had been playing with some settings in the hidden menu and developer options sometime before this problem began but AFAIK I returned everything back to default and the phone was working fine for a while afterwards. So I am not sure exactly why the Wifi and bluetooth stopped working. When I dragged down the notification bar to toggle the Wifi icon it just flashes like a strobe light and never turns on. If I go to toggle the slider in the Settings menu, it's either greyed out, or immediately slides back to Off. Discovered that the bluetooth also did the same thing, but Data connection still worked. Also for some reason the phone now took a solid 60 seconds to boot up when it used to take 30 or less.
I did a factory reset in case I had overlooked changing some option back to default, and when that didn't work I flashed stock ROM H815-20g-00-1023 (I'm ~ 95% sure it was running 20g to begin with but it might have been another letter instead) with LGUP. But the problem still persists --- I can't complete the LG setup process because the page for setting up the internet connection is either completely blank or if it does come up the checkbox for Wifi is greyed out... and even if the mobile data option is able to be selected the setup wizard will not let you proceed without Wifi.
Any idea what might be the problem and how to fix?
Many thanks!
I've looked every which way on Google for possible solutions but none of them match the scenario I'm describing. Is this really a problem that no one else has ever had? :-O

Redmi note 8 notification sound problem

Hello,
I'm from Morocco and currently using a XIAOMI REDMI NOTE 8, (64Go/4Go), running the latest version of MIUI 11.0.11.0 Global stable with Android 9.
So i'm having this really annoying problem whith the notification when the phone is closed. So basiclly the sound of the notification should come at the time of recieving the notification but in my case there is a delay of 2 to 3 min or even more than that sometimes. And even sometimes the sound is not heard at all even with the notification is recieved. Only the light bulbe for the notification is blinking.
This problem happened especially with the Whatsapp application. Everything in the notifications seetings is on, all permission are granted, locked the app in the recent app, turned on autostart, disabled battery saver even though i don't use it at all, put no restriction on the app, turned on background data. I've tried to use different network connection still the same problem. I don't seem to find a reason why would this happend and find a solution for that. I did perform a factory reset but doesn't seem to be fixed. Everything in the begining was working fine no issue at all. I don't seem to remember when it start to happend, I've asked my freinds owning the same device if they are facing the same issue all of them denied. So the question is if all the devices have the same software that they are operating on they should have the same bug or problem if i wan't to say. But not in this case. I have not installed any 3rd party app that has to do with the battery at all.
I do use my mom's phone to test this out. The phone is on everything works perfectly. I locked the phone and the problem start. It's like ther is something that shut the notifications immediately when i close the phone (dnd is not activated also battery saver as i mentioned earlier). So if there is any kind of solution to this problem please help me with or if there is a dev please let them know to fix this issue. I did reported it in the feedback section on the phone 10 times in the time of writing this thread. I'm currently waiting for the new update hoping that it will fix the problem otherwise this is really disappointing. The best selling phone in the market facing issue like this, that's not very acceptable at all. This made me miss a lot of important notifications. Hope that it will be fixed as soon as possible.
If you want to help me and you need any more info please leave me a comment and i will send them to you (screenshots of the settings etc....).
Thanks for your time.
Stay safe.
Have a nice day.

1. Turn off miui optimization under developer options
2. Give all permissions, no battery optimization to google play services and framework. Before doing this, clear data of those apps(removes google account!).
3. Check if it's added to game turbo or not
These are some more possible solutions. After checking all those, reboot once and check if the problem is solved or not.

Hello,
Thanks for you response. I've already done what you did sggest to me but still the samething always late notification sound.
It's not added to game turbo i don't even use it and it's disabled. Google play services and framework don't have any kind of restrictions whatsoever. I don't want turn off miui optimization cuz it mess up with a lot of visuals.
I think it's a software issue. Because sometimes when i want to change the ringtone and i tap on a different one it took a lit bit of time to play it same thing when changing the notification. This problem is happening when the phone is locked only.
I'm cuurently waiting for the new update with a hope that it will fix it.
Thanks again.
have a nice day.
