Whatsapp Notifications - Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers

Hello. I'm running 10.2.5.0 (PFBEUXM) stable and I have an issue with Whatsapp notification sounds.
I tried to change the default sound notification from Whatsapp Settings - Notifications - Notification tone. When I clicked there I had couple of choices and I clicked I think Internal shared storage.
The issue is that I cannot anymore get out of this internal storage whatever I click. It's very strange. Is anyone else facing the same issue ?
Unfortunately uninstall and install again didn't solve the issue. I'm stuck on that page without the possibility to select another sound.

Install any file manager from playstore and try one kore time.
Don't tap "always".

That did the trick. Thank you!
What's strange is the fact that seems that Whatsapp doesn't come with a pack of sounds at all. on my other device (xiaomi redmi 5 - I have lots of sounds to pick from)

Yes. I would also like to use the default WhatsApp tone but can't seem to find it any where and it does not reset if i click restore defaults.

I've never had inbuilt Whatsapp's sounds in any Android phone.
Are u sure u are talking about WApp not Hangouts?

[Q] Froyo update notification sound problem

I upgraded to 2.2 OTA yesterday. Everything has worked great except that out of all issues, the notification sound for my text message became a very low key pop sound. I attempted to change it various times and tried resetting my phone a couple of times to see if that changed anything and nothing.
The funny part is I can still change the sound notifications for my twitter, so it is specifically the text messaging that is causing a problem. I have never rooted and didn't flash that early froyo, just the legit one yesterday.
Can anyone help me?
Does anyone have any ideas ?
Have you tried a reboot?

By rebooting you mean turning off and turning on? If yes I have many times and tried taking out the battery too.

Im rooted using fresh right now it is built on the latest OTA and I'm trying to replicate your problem. What happens when you attempt to change the sound also where are you changing the sound at in messaging settings or the default in sounds?

When I go to settings/sound/notification sound I click any of the sounds and click ok. (As I highlight any of them it plays the preview sound).
Then I exit and have multiple people text me and it plays a little tiny sounding popping sound instead of whatever sound I picked.
Now I am on launcher pro and attempted changing on regular sense and nothing happened. I'm also using chompsms. (maybe uninstall chompsms?)
I don't know what to do . I turned off the phone several times and also took out the battery. Twitter notifications work fine, so its directly related to texting
go into your messages home screen press menu, press settings, scroll to received messages heading, make sure play notification sound is checked and than select a notification sound from the next option below and select ok

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG THANK YOU !!!!!!!! You have no idea how frustrated I was with this !
I really appreciate it man.

no notifications for any app (sms/facebook/email etc)

Hi there!
I am on a DHD Dutch stock version, kernel: 2.6.35.10 / build 3.12.405.1
I have a problem with the notifications: I don't get any! That is to say..I do receive a notification in the bar and there is the flashing LED,m but no sounds. This is for all apps which are supposed to give you sounds (facebook/email/whatsapp/sms etc).
Of course I have checked the settings..I also tried a hard reset, but neither are working.
According to the shop I will have to send my phone, but you can imagine that I don't like to send my phone away for 2 weeks if I can solve this myself. I was waiting for the ICS update and with all the hassle going on for the update (is it coming or not...), I would rather wait with putting a custom rom on it..
however since the absence of notifications is really annoying...does anyone know a solution?
thanks a lot,
Karin
Missing Notifications
I had the same problem back before i put a custom rom on my phone.
i would say just root your phone and flash a rom of your liking. MIUI is nice
that would fix your problem.
with me i think it turned out to be a conflict between the notification settings in my apps and in the phone itself.
in messages there should be settings to change the notification. have you looked there?
I guess i will have to do that if nobody knows a solution...i think it is some kind of bug...in the stock rom...
I have checked my settings, and...resetting to factory settings didn't help to get notifications back, not even for text messages for example...

Notification fix
I know you checked settings.
Did this include opening the message app to the main screen, them pressing menu>settings>notification>play notification sound?
also while in notification settings on your messaging app, choose one of the sounds and is should play as a preview. does this work?
have you set "quiet hours" on your phone?

no , just checked again
damn...so i guess i am going to root again...it is a while ago...my last custom rom was with my samsung i8910 :s
Wanted to let you know that I solved it
First, I have set all settings, being the general settings, specific settings and app settings to ' do not receive any notification'... This didn't change anything, it even kept on giving led flashing although I disabled that....
than I did a factory reset again...after that, all settings were on 'standard', and nothing was working...
Then I changed everything to a custom sound in stead of the standard beep... No luck....
then I did the factory reset again....and than suddenly it worked
Yeah....
(although I am still seriously tempted to root )

Ringtone problems

This sounds really stupid but anyone else having a problem with the ringtone you select staying? I select a ringtone and then verify but every time I get my first call after it goes to dumb Verizon airwaves ringtone. My notification tones stick like normal. Just really getting annoying.
Thanks
Never had that problem ....
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yeahp i had it...seemed to have stopped tho.
I'm still having the problem with the ringtone not staying. Still reverts the VZW Airwaves after first call. I checked to see if I disabled an app to cause this and struck out there. I'm wondering if its do not disturb. I keep it on always and only let contacts call.
Same problem here

Mine is still happening. I've been busy working but I may try a factory reset. My phone started bootlooping this morning when I got home from work and put it on the charger. Restarted like 6 times. Lots of bugs
I'm still not having any issues, well except this

I had this issue at first. Do you have ES File explorer? Mine was borked because of that. So i had to disable that from being default. Then it still wasn't working for my SMS only text tone so I switched from Hangouts to Google Messenger, changed the tone then switched back to Hangouts.
When I was doing that Hangouts had the right text tone selected but that wasn't what played. So i used "SMS" as default SMS account vs my Gmail then switched it back the be more organized and it worked. Haven't tried changing tone since so idk if thats needed each time

Okay good to hear. I'm just going to wait and deal with it since I will be exchanging for a new device. Thanks again for letting me know.
No problem
Been having this same issue on my replacement Note 7, (ringtone never switched to default on my original Note 7). I used Samsung cloud to restore some settings on my replacement Note 7 and that could be the culprit.
I really do not want to do a factory reset as I just spent a ton of time setting my phone back up this week.
I moved the ringtone from SD card to internal to see if that would fix it from reverting. Will see...
I had the issue on my original defective Note 7. Not having it on my new one.

Maybe unrelated, but are you using any kind of audio volume manager? Some of them (like AudioManager Pro) will store ringtone information, so when you toggle modes, the ringtone comes along for the ride (reverting one that you may have manually selected).
I put a brand new ringtone on my internal drive Ringtone folder yesterday and when I turned on my phone this morning, it had reverted back to the Verizon default ringtone again. Any ideas how to get the ringtone to stick other than a factory reset?

Question / FIXED /Own notifications do not work after restart, only vibration without sound. .

Hi.
When I set my own notifications for applications like WhatsApp, email, messages, calendar, everything works normally. However, after the phone is restarted, the notifications do not work, there is silence without sound. However, if I leave the default notification sounds set, they will work after the restart. For contacts where I have set my own ringtone, everything is fine after the restart. Not sure what it might be that your own notifications won't work after a restart?
Thanks.
Nobody help?
Internal system notification sounds work even after reboot. Unfortunately, custom sounds do not work after a reboot, only vibration.
Nobody nothing? :-(
Settings / Apps /
App Manager / search for Sounds app (com.android.soundpicker) then force colse it and clear cache and data.
Then reapply your custom ringtone

I can not find it. The sound app (com.android.soundpicker) is not in system !
My friend has the same POCO F3 phone and also has no soundpicker in the applications.
Also having this bug but not with all app which have custom sound notification.
Using EU.dev A12 rom, but also has this issue with EU.dev A11.
Its very annoying but couldn't find solution.
Tried to convert my sound's from mp3 to mp4, ogg but didn't help.

I also tried converting my MP3 to OGG and it didn't help. But when I don't restart the phone, my own sounds work normally in (WhatsApp, Sms, Email). Only after the restart do they stop working when the notification comes, it just vibrates for me, but without the sound. It's weird, as if something didn't activate or dont save somewhere after the restart.
Anyone have any ideas?
So I finally found com.android.soundpicker. I have it called sounds.
But after deleting all the data from the application sounds (soundpicker) no change.
The problem still persists - after restarting the phone, only vibration without sound for notifications. I'm helpless.
So I finally solved the problem myself.
I created a Magisk module that allows me to write to the system.
I copied my own notification sounds to the system media folder, and after restarting the phone, the notification sound works.

I think he means your phone has to be "Rooted" before being able to write to your system files as you did, well done for finding a FIX, it`s great have them documented to help others, maybe you could edit the thread title and add the word FIXED to it

Question Xiaomi 13 Pro for 2 days and already so many problems

So a friend and I got the 13 Pro for 2 days and we already encountered so many problems, most of them I've been able to fix, but there are two remaining that I can't manage to fix, and not the least.
Firstly, we don't receive push notifications for Gmail. Notifications are enabled for Gmail in phone settings, in the Gmail app, and battery saver is disabled for the app. Everything seems normal. We tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, rebooting the phone, clearing data of the app. Nothing works.
Secondly, when sending a voice message on Instagram, the voice waveform is flat. Like there is no sound. But there is actually sound, it just shows like there is not. Not a huge problem in itself but it's quite disturbing when a recording a message, and for the person who receives it.
Also, not really a problem but still deserves an honorable mention, as stated previously, my friend and I have the same phone, (Xiaomi 13 Pro 12/256GB, MIUI 14.0.15, Model 2210132G). His torch light is yellowish, like most of the phones I'd say, while mine is very white and bright. We just don't know why...
Any help would be very appreciated, especially for the Gmail issue which is very problematic
(screenshots attached for more details)
I assume you have granted permissions to Gmail, even though it is not mentioned in the post.
Version of the rom(full name)?.
Yes permissions for notifications were granted to Gmail on the first launch of the app.
The ROM full name is 14.0.15.0(TMBEUXM)

I can't find this rom.
Long press on the Gmail icon/information/permissions :
Allow all (always allow except sms).
That's weird, this is the ROM for Europe I guess, I didn't installed anything else, just updated the the software when prompted on first boot
So I gave all permissions to Gmail.

The screen shot does not correspond with what I told you above.
Couldn't find "Allow all (always allow except sms)" when going to Gmail information while long pressing the app icon so I thought you just meant to allow everything
Anyway, I really don't know why but it works now ! I received email notifications for your replies to the thread so I hope it's not temporarily Thank you lol

You indirectly grant the permissions.
Check like this;
Xiaomi settings/app management/installed apps/gmail/authorizations.
Sorry I'm trying my best but the steps you give me don't match with what I see
Here is what I got in the screenshots below (leading to the same page as the screenshot from one of my previous post)
I got Settings > Apps > Manage Apps > Gmail > App permissions
Ok,it's good, it's Gmail that does that (I don't use Gmail).
Okay, now it's not working anymore, I'm desperate

No screen notification on standby or even screen on?
used you AOD?
Screen on or screen off, no notifications.
Last notifications I received were from about 30 mins ago (screenshot below), phone vibrated, notification showed on wake screen and in the top bar when unlocked.
But if I open the Gmail app, there is an email notifying me your reply at 5:58, for which I didn't receive a push notification...

Check, settings/notifications/lock screen, floating notifications, badges.
Effect of notifications/all but none.
If you use AOD/verify that on used theme that notifications is activated.
Gmail notifications are correctly allowed for lock screen, floating notifications and badges.
Notification is set to animation (Pulse, blue)
Sorry forgot to reply to this part, I not using always-on display
This is so frustrating...

Check:
Xiaomi settings/app management/manage permissions/permissions/apps then permissions.
Ok so this time I got a push notification ! Phone was unlocked, I'll let it locked from now to see if it changes anything next time.
Regarding your reply, I already checked here a few minutes ago while browsing in the settings looking for anything that was disabled while it's shouldn't be... Everything looks good there.

Well, apart from granting Gmail all permissions (post #5) I didn't change anything since I opened this thread. But I now randomly get push notifications... I got one when you posted, but like 50 mins ago I received an email for which I didn't get a notification... This is nonsense, I don't know what to think
