Push Notifications - Xiaomi Mi Max 3 Questions & Answers

Hello guys,
Does anyone have problems with the push notifications on the Mi Max 3 ?
I have tried almost anything but can't get notifications properly.
I have prioritized notifications, enabled autostart and disabled the battery save mode.
Nothing helps.
I am on China Rom 9.6.11.0 stable.
Someone still have ideas ?

It's annoying, but you have to do three things for Notifications to always work 100%. I'm on 8.8.9 eu weekly and this is still needed. It's an Oreo 8.1 problem for battery saving:
1) Auto start
2) Battery optimization: no restrictions (this actually might be unnecessary but I do it anyway in case my phone battery gets too low)
3) Most important step unfortunately: LOCK the app in Recents (hold it and press lock icon).

I did those 3 things you mentioned but still no notifications.
I also have a Nexus 6 on Oreo 8.1 LineageOS and no problems with the notifications at all,
i have not even had to change anything.

exactly which app?

Ok, i finaly solved it.
It was the Nova launcher together with the Tesla unread app that had not the right permissions.

Mine:
1) Auto start
2) Battery optimization: no restrictions (this actually might be unnecessary but I do it anyway in case my phone battery gets too low)
From above
3) Installed App > {App_name} > Notifications >
Then
'Show notifications' : enabled
Importance : High or above
App Icon badge : enabled
4) If 3 still didn't work, try rooting your phone then convert it into system app

Not sure if this exists in every miui but I found Turn off MIUI optimization this morning while browsing the settings app and had no idea what it did.
I flipped the switch and now I get all notifications imminently:

Its a cpu bug on xiaomi defected device or maybe how XIAOMI/ANDROID configure its android system/power saving mechanism..it happens to many users but not all..After few findings, theres a lot of xiaomi defected cpu device and sadly enough ive got it on Rn5 pro, mi max 2 and now mi max 3 even Huawei got this problem too..Hope xiaomi/huawei will fix this in the future..Anyway after few research, finding and wasted times, the problem was its system PARTIAL WAKE LOCK was not configured correctly and it is really in deep sleep..this issue will cause in late notification at lockscreen after you leave your phone for several minutes, got led light blinking but no sound, no notification at all, etc which effect some users including me..i tried many things to fix this by changing roms, aosp or xiaomi eu, kernels, disabling doze etc but to no vail until i found this app CPU Awake inside google play store..install it and configure this app with no restriction, autorun and locked it in recent..and youll get all your notification back on lockscreen instantly..there is also no significant battery decrease by using this app (been using this app for quite a few years now)..Even though it has, its a better trade off than not receiving notification at all..you can remove this app from recent after all set up then reboot the settings will applied automatically..never touch the apps again if you want too, good luck and give some feedback..

Lots of different small issues

Hi all
I have been using this phone for a month, and I have experienced a lot of different small issues, I hope someone may have solution to them.
Phone:
Mi A2 Lite, rooted (Magisk) Android one pie, January update. Has a screen protector.
Apps:
Here are some apps that I think may cause the issue that I mention below, these apps are Nova and datally. Really can't think of a third one, I don't use any cleaning app or battery performance app.
Issue:
1. Typing experience is horrible. Using stock google input, the keyboard is not very sensitive and accurate. The letter just can't be recognized even though I am sure I have pressed the key and pressed the right key. So my typing is really slow, the key doesn't display immediately (it does seem to have a delay), and for some reason I always type wrong and missing some letters, so gotta use backspace a lot.
2. It always wakes up randomly in my pocket, so I may take the phone out with torch on and airplane mode on without my awareness.
3. When I am on a call, I can accidentally press some random on screen keys.
4. The background apps AWALYS get killed, even though I have turned the battery optimization off globally, and the individual apps that I never want to be killed.
5. Messaging service apps have huge delay when delivering the notification. It may only show when I open the app. Used PNF app but couldn't fix the problem.
Does anyone have the same issue and know the fix?
I hope it is only the software problem (Pie system) and maybe I can fix it by flashing a better rom, but I don't seem to find a stable official custom ROM for Mi A2 Lite (even lineage OS is unofficial)
Many thanks

all these problems without wakes up in pocket. killing the background application is the biggest problem for me (I use a lot of smart home app- eWelink,Room Heat,Magic Home) and it's horrible. ewelink starts 5sec after kill, Room Heat - frequent crash like a white screen...
the next problem is huge delay when delivering the notification....
I am on Stock Android One-February update,I'm allowed only cam2api...

You have battery optimization off? any battery improvement app? I think all these is because the 'intelligence' in Android is playing up, it doesn't understand exactly how we use the app. However, even have it turned off, the problem exists....

Don't understand why there is such different, did you have battery optimisation off and all time since the first day you use the device?

Did you set:
Disable Ambient Display and any battery optimisation for the app.
Give notification access permission.
Guys who can't make it work, try turning on "Wake lock screen for notifications" option in lock screen settings.
After the last update it stopped working again. I've given it every permission, I've disabled ambient display, I've disabled battery optimization, I've locked it in the recent apps, I rebooted several times, nothing helped. I tried turning on and off auto brightness, wake for notifications, dt2w. I saw it working a few hours ago, but now again nothing. This is the last thing left to make this phone a normal phone.
I am now on Havoc ROM but ... on last 9.7.18 was all ok. Fully working.
For me doesn't show notifications for missed phone calls, MiuiEu.
I think Led Blinker is better and I will stay with Missed Notifications Reminder.
He wrote in first post: "Don't enable the LED for the "Phone App" as it will interfere when an incoming call is coming! Will fix this soon".
On Havoc is working fine and I have using too: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dan_ru.ProfReminder it is good combo.

For some reason I've never looked at blinker. Looks interesting and seem to work. Thanks!
Thought on battery life with this app? Works flawlessly however I'm curious on the battery life.

Same here. Not working at all.

Disabled battery optimization for the app
Enabled notification access
Chose a color for the apps I want
Nothing.
What rom do you have? On crDroid is all ok ... I am using every day.
Hey guys,
after trying several apps (e.g. NotifyBuddy) and none of them worked as I imagined, I found this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.used.aoe
It brings not only the possibility of an alternative AOD with icons or edge lighting but also a fake notification LED. That is exactly what I wanted. It works for me with fingerprint scanner deactivated but face unlock activated. Did not try with FOD so far. But I have it set to show Lockscreen on new message and afterwards show the fake LED.
I'm quite satisfied. But I have no long time experience. Just a few hours. So I can't tell anything about battery behavior
Xiaomi 9 SE 10.3.3.0 Global Rom
It worked OK after first install. Then I rebooted ...and it does not work at all. I have tried all the settings I used the first time and all the suggestions given in this thread, but I can't make it work again.
Same here. Any solution?
It does work perfectly . I'm using this app more than a month - no issues whatsoever.
Just add this app to exclusions in security panel , cleaner etc.
Check for the newest version which is 1.50 for today.
If you have any issues , just clean and uninstall older version and install fresh, new one.
Finally i have smartphone with "led" notification . No led was the only cons about this phone for me
I hope it will help you guys.
Ps. Red dot on screenshot is during charging , while i took screenshot , only then is possible to do it - in case if someone will ask to show other color
Ps.2. I'm on xiaomi.eu 11 Rom Dev , but this app also works on Masik Rom 8.5 .
Propably it works on any rom , settings is the key to make it work.

Notification LED simulation App

I stumbled on Reddit at this cool App that simulates a Notification LED using the actual screen. It was also featured on XDA and I decided to give it a try on the Mi9T. The App is called NotifyBuddy and is available for free on the Play Store.
My experience with it over a whole day was great. It actually looks like an LED lighting up. Since we have a Amoled screen it just uses a tiny part of the screen, so there is no huge battery drain. Also to prevent burn in it moves slightly in position every 5 to 10 minutes or so from left to right. You can have different colors for different Apps and how long the LED effect will be active until switching off. I have mine on for 5 minutes.
My major concern was battery life since when the App is active the phone probably doesn't go to deep sleep but after now 24 hours of the phone being unplugged I can say it's great. Just look at the Screenshots. I'm at 50% right now and almost 4,5 hours of SOT over 24 hours of usage. It works very well so far and if this doesn't get worse there is no reason to not keep it. Try it out guys if you are missing a Notification LED on the actual front of the phone.

Doesn't work for me, do you use your fingerprint scanner to unlock because I suspect it might be conflicting with that. None of those similar apps ever work for me
Doesn't work for me also, there its no way to make it work
Weird. It works for me
Doesn't work for me. I use fingerprint scanner. Wish it did work though, as this would be really helpful.

I guess you granted the app the required permissions ( asked when you first launch it) and allow notifybuddy to start in backgroup, display on lock screen ?
I'm running MUI global 10.3.10
Can anyone confirm who does have it working, that it works with fingerprint unlock?

I advise you to try this:
1. Remove the fingerprint.
2. Run the application, when you first start, allow notifybuddy to run in the backgroup, display locks on the screen.
3. And then create a fingerprint.
4. Reboot the phone.
A
- I received the 10.3.10 by OTA... (you can manualy check for update into the "about phone" section)
- NotifyBuddy is working with Fingerprint unlock activated. The fingerprints where created before installing the app.
Tried deleting fingerprint before installing the app.
Then tried again after.
Could not make it work. If anyone has any more suggestions, they will be very much appreciated.
Using Global Stable 10.3.10.0
Doesnt work with AOD
this should be a feature in custom roms.

Prof Reminder. Use this app and forget about any other app that involves notification LED. I use this app since i received this Mi9T. I was upset for missing the usual notification Led and i have searched for other options. This app does not consume any battery and is very easy to set up. When you have missed notification (WhatsApp, sms, call, etc), this app reminds you over and over.... Sorry if it's off topic or something but i just try to help! Respect!

Dude, you "saved my life"with this application.
I came from a OnePlus 3 and never had a Xiaomi phone before, and the lack of a visible LED was annoying me a lot.
I had it work for all of 5 mins and no matter what I try I cant get it to work.

A few Questions About MIUI.. - Bugs and Stuff

Okay so i got the phone yesterday and have been looking into the phone since. I have a few problems i would like solutions for. Most of these i guess are bugs or settings related problems.
1. The volume rocker stops working when i clear apps from the app manager... I've seen this problem being mentioned by a bunch of people from as far as 2015 and there apparently seems to be no solution for it apart from the "Accessibility Menu" trick..
2. MIUI doesn't let third party apps set the lockscreen wallpaper... WHY??
3. I tried all profiles and settings in the phone, but i really can't get the push notification pop up on the top of the screen to work most of the times... In every other phone you get a pop up when you get notifications but with this OS it vibrates but doesn't show the pop up.. AGAIN, WHY???
4. I got the MIUI 11 update but it's Android 9??? I thought MIUI 11 is Android 10? When are we supposed to get 10 for the phone?
This phone is amazing. Really. It's one of the most comprehensive set of hardware in a budget package right now. But the OS is absolute garbage, and that's putting it lightly. Any help to maybe get rid of these problems/bugs until a custom ROM is out will be much appreciated!
1. Dunno
2. Security reasons, probably. You don't want random apps hijacking your lockscreen
3. Uh dunno
4. Android 10 coming soon

So I found what's wrong with the notification thing, XIAOMI somehow thought it's an acceptable compromise to turn off ALL notifications for EVERY app to save battery... -_- You have to INDIVIDUALLY turn on notifications for every app you have installed to get notifications as you did with every other manufacturer.... And it's not even one checkbox to tick, you have to go in a separate menu for EACH app and tick 5 or 6 checkboxes manually... WOW... I will sell this phone within a month if there is no custom ROM.

MIUI 11 is really annoying, but its good enough for me. Has all the essentials feature I need.
More customizability on MIUI 11 would be nice.
MIUI 11 with Android 10 update is imminent in the month of December
And what's the deal with some earphones not being detected when plugged in??? My Auglamor R8 just doesn't work without manually switching the audio output to headphones... This is SO annoying!!

No vibration on Redmi Note 8 Pro

Hello XDA community and devs.,
As a title says, - my Redmi Note 8 Pro don't vibrate at all. This is a new 128/6ram global phone (in white box), MIUI 11.0.2 PGGMIXM). I just received this phone 2 day ago.
1. I tried turn on vibration via settings everywhere, didn't worked.
2. I tried turn off battery saver, - didn't worked.
3. I turned vibration via notification bar by pressing on 'Vibrate' icon, - didn't worked.
4. I downloaded various apps from Google Play by search "Vibrate test" and none of these apps in testing made my phone vibrate.
When I asked my friend to bring his Redmi note 8 pro (128/8ram - from red box, but same MIUI version), to compare both phones using same settings and my phone didn't vibrate, but my friend's phone did!
What I didn't tried yet.
1. Reset phone to factory settings.
2. To flash phone using MI flash tool software for fresh version of MIUI. But I don't want to do this, because phone's bootloader is locked and I may lose my phone's warranty by doing this (not sure here, need to read Banggood warranty policy).
I already submitted a feedback in MIUI, just not sure how this can help me. Maybe you guys had faced this vibration problem before and can advice me about I should do next, because I have bad feeling this is about hardware and this Redmi Note 8 Pro is simple defective.
Thanks for reading and for advice. o7

Little update, I did phone factory reset, - still no vibration in phone.
If u find any solution, do help me too. As my vibrational motor is too low....
You can specifically test target the vibration motor using the MIUI Hidden Settings app from XDA Labs,
If you cannot make it vibrate and vibrate mode is on, I guess you have to return it.
Many other users have the same rom and I have not seen many complaining about this problem.
Good luck,
Regards,
