Questions from a new Vivo NEX S owner - Vivo Nex Questions & Answers

1. Is there any way to natively enable "Wifi-Calling" using the Funtouch OS settings?
I live in a very bad coverage area and definitely need Wifi-Calling when home. I tried using an app that supposedly enables the 'hidden' wifi-calling feature. It appears to work for a short while after enabling it, but an hour or so later callers report going straight to my voice mail even though I haven't dropped out of my Wifi network. Once I make a call at that point I start being able to receive calls again. I thought this might be a 'sleep' setting for Wifi, but the actual setting for that feature is set to 'Always On' so it's apparently not that.
2. Many apps do not have notification badge icons features on Funtouch OS. For example, the email app that comes with Funtouch has a setting called "App Icon Tag", but none others that I've seen have the same feature (even apps that are meant to have notification badges like gmail or Inbox or Linkedin. Some of the more ubiquitous apps do have this feature (i.e. WhatsApp, etc.). Since the underlying OS is Android 8.1 (which does have this functionality) is there any way to enable this in Funtouch?
3. Is there a way to get separate notification ringtones for individual email accounts?
The default Funtouch email app does not have this feature. It only allows a notification ringtone for all emails on all configured accounts.
Thanks,
M.

Found some answers (touches on setting custom launcher)
1. Is there any way to natively enable "Wifi-Calling" using the Funtouch OS settings?
Other than what I already wrote in the original post I haven't found anything for this
2. Many apps do not have notification badge icons features on Funtouch OS. For example, the email app that comes with Funtouch has a setting called "App Icon Tag", but none others that I've seen have the same feature (even apps that are meant to have notification badges like gmail or Inbox or Linkedin. Some of the more ubiquitous apps do have this feature (i.e. WhatsApp, etc.). Since the underlying OS is Android 8.1 (which does have this functionality) is there any way to enable this in Funtouch?
So this particular question would be easily resolved with a custom launcher, but since this has been an ongoing topic with no resolution (that I could find on the boards) I didn't think of doing this initially. However, I figured I had nothing to lose in trying so I did and to my surprise I was able to install and set Nova as the default launcher without having to create a Vivo account. I wrote Vivo and they said they were working on an "account registration system" available to others outside China with no Chinese phone number, but they said it was not yet ready. Apparently they must have made a change to the ROM because I was able to set Nova as the custom launcher (and select the 'default' radio button). Up to now I have been using Nova as my default launcher without it ever going back to the Vivo launcher. 'Home' always takes me back to Nova.
Because I can now use Nova as my launcher I can use "Tesla Unread" and have set it up to post notification badges on all of the apps that I couldn't before. For some reason though, some of the default Vivo apps (i.e. mail, calendar, etc.) do not post notifications in a way that 'Tesla Unread' can read so I had to download a calendar app and an email app to get the desired effect.
Google Calendar works brilliantly, but the email app was a bit trickier.
Bluemail does the same thing my V30 mail started doing after the Oreo upgrade (only counts new mail in the notification badge and doesn't continue to display unread count after I have cleared the initial notification -- even if the email itself is still unread). Fortunately Aqua mail works perfectly for this! I now can see notification badge for total of unread mail.
3. Is there a way to get separate notification ringtones for individual email accounts?
The default Funtouch email app does not have this feature. It only allows a notification ringtone for all emails on all configured accounts.
Aqua Mail has this functionality...I can assign individual notification tones for each mail account. Aqua Mail ROCKS! (so I bought the pro version).
Hope that helps out others having similar issues.

The app is just called "Wifi Calling" in the Google Play Store. As it turned out, I wasn't using it correctly. I had to take an extra step for it to work, but I don't get the pop-up for that step so it's not working. It came recommended from a thread on here when I did my original search.

I am also using Nova Launcher...that might be the difference, but I also bought Aqua Mail Pro and it works like a champ. It adds up all the unread mail in my accounts and displays them perfectly until they are no longer "unread". I can't say enough good things about it.

[Q] How do you disable S Planner?

It's weird.. I can't disable it from my s6 Application Management, the option to "Disable" is greyed out. When I go into the S Planner app > Settings > Manage Calendars to switch off all the calendars it's grabbing from my google account.. something turns the calendars back on. Force stop, clear cache, clear data just re-enables S Planner again.
I prefer Google's Calendar app as my main calendar and because I can't disable S Planner I get double event notifications. Has anyone been able to turn it off? I'm not rooted.

Use debloater program for pc (use search on this forum). Install it, then connect your phone, wait a bit and scan packages. Look for S-planner and click the box next to it and click apply (this will disable the app). You can do this without root.
I simply disabled notifications
Thanks Juzh, I'll look into that.
In regards to the last post. Can you post where to disable that?
Sent from my SM-G920I using XDA Free mobile app
Go to application manager ... In settings. You can disable notifications for many apps (which stops them running in background as well as solving your s planner problem)
OK however my S Planner notification option is checked but greyed out to disable. Does yours toggle? Could be something wrong with my phone. Anyone else can disable like the last post mentioned?

Just go into the Samsung calendar app and turn off the notifications in the settings
There are a few ways to do this it seems. There is a setting called App notifications. Find S Planner. Click on the cog wheel for settings.
Turn notifications off.
This happened to me too!
I tried to switch over to google Calendar, but got double notifications. I wanted to uninstall it, but that was not possible. So I went into the permissions of the S-planner app and turned off all permissions.
From that point on, it kept sending me notifications that I had to give S-planner permission to read the calendar and other items. I couldn't even go into the app itself and tell the app to stop making these notifications because it would keep popping up a message that I had to set permissions to read calendar and then it would return to the main screen of the app.
In the end, I resigned to allowing it to read my calendar and then from the app itself turn off notifications.
So I still have the app, but i no longer have double notifications.
@Mainow, I have this too, it bothers me greatly. Did you get this fixed?
jjust use titanium backup and disable it their without truning off notification or something its called freeze in titanium back up
Package Disabler Pro
I use Package Disabler Pro. I used the free version for a bit but do like being able to kill S Planner, S Voice and all those other little hard to kill apps that come on the S6 (and S7). In the end I bought the app, but it was pretty cheap. Oh, also does not need root.
Hope this helps.

Thank you kindly msstockham
Well, I no longer get double notifications and s planner has stopped complaining about being able to read the calendars. So yeah, it's pretty much fixed. Only thing is that I would have rather just uninstalled s planner, because it's still there

Whoa. I haven't been on the forum a while. I thought I would have gotten an email if someone replied to my message.
Sorry for the VERY late answer
In short, no, i never got this fixed other than what i described. S-planner still is able to read my calendar, but I muted the notifications from the app itself

Not sure as I've never stuck with the EMUI launcher on my Huawei's, the premium version of Nova Launcher has the Tesla Unread plugin though which works well for me.

No Notification LED for Outlook Emails (OOS 5.1.8)

Using Outlook for Android official Microsoft app, not getting any notification LED lights when I have new emails or reminders. I get the screen off messages coming through on the display, but those only show up for like 5 seconds at a time. With Gmail and other apps, I get those and the notification LED to light up. My settings for LED notifications are normal, and Outlook should be showing, but it isn't working.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a fix? I'd rather not get some 3rd party LED manager app for one application issue, but I am willing to try.
Saw one other thread on this, but I don't want to factory reset right now. Too much important emails and stuff going on at work to risk the pain of setup again. I also seem to have an issue with notification volume being really loud for Outlook.

Did you ever get an answer? I had to switch over to the Outlook app for work and was having issues as well.
Found some very important things:
LED notifications were disabled in Outlook notification preferences
You need to click on "Event Reminders" and "Mail" (not toggle buttons) in order to see LED notification option to enable (have no idea why it's disabled by default)
You ALSO need to make sure notification sounds are set inside Outlook (I think this issue is Android related)
I set the notification preferences for reminders and emails to be the SYSTEM DEFAULT and after these changes above, LED notifications work for my reminders and emails
Let me know if you want some screenshots! (I'm on OnePlus 5T w/crDroid)

Here's what my Outlook 2.2.197 settings look like. I went to Settings - Notifications. Clicking the New Mail Sound took me to extra settings where both vibrate and light were toggled off.

Hmm. I don't see those advanced options in my version 2.2.200. I'll probably root this phone eventually and wipe it clean and start over with either the stock rom + custom kernel or a custom rom/kernel. Maybe that will fix it.
Surely you should try a 3rd party app before wiping and starting over - get lightflow it works great and will get your LED working as you want for any app youd like.

Assistant only completes certain tasks

Since yesterday I have a seemingly unresolvable issue with the Assistant on my Pixel 3. Running Android 10 and been using swedish as the main language for a while (the issue is the same with english btw).
Stuff like setting timers, alarms, making calls, sending texts and playing music have worked fine for a long time.
Right before things went wrong I got an error message about no Google account being associated to the Assistant. I reverted it to my Google account and figured everything was fine.
Then later the Assistant started failing, and in particular to do these tasks:
- set timers
- set alarms
- make calls
- send texts.
When I try these I'm only met with the three grey pulsating dots, and no audio response or text confirmation.
Stuff that it still does, though, are:
- play music via Spotify, Google Play Music
- tell me the weather
The strange thing though is that if I set Assistant to be used without an account, it works! Also if I create a brand new test Google account, it manages those basic tasks that have stopped working on my regular Google account.
So, on Android 10, security update april 5th.
I've been trying to resolve this for 24hrs now, and frustration is growing. I've:
- tried to clear cache/data for the Google app
- inactivated it, rebooted, activated, updated
- tried the beta Google app
- tried various old versions from apkmirror -- from march, earlier in april (at a time when my Assistant was working)
- rebooted in Safe mode -- here it uses the old Assistant interface! and it actually works, but it's the clunky old one!
- checked permissions for the Google app/Clock/Telephone app/Messages -- everything seems to be enabled?
- gone through my settings for my Google account: web and app activity, location history and so on is Enabled. Personlig ads also on.
Another weird thing is that sometimes it actually seems to set a timer, but no confirmation and no notification visible. Also nothing is shown in the Clock app. But a timer beeps after five minutes -- only sometimes! Weird.
Now when I was experimenting with this I tried to set a timer, then opened the Clock app and of course, no timer was running. I then got one of those blue notification fields at the bottom, saying I can use the Assistant to set timers, alarms etc. I touched it and got an Assistant popup saying "It's not possible to reach Google right now" (translated)... Hmmm!
As you can tell, this is very weird. I would appreciate any pointers and suggestions! Thanks in advance
So this is what a typical response looks like:
https://photos.app.goo.gl/PaMGfYxAUSqAoMpZ6
And in Your Activity, it says I set a timer and got a response, but that is is simply untrue!
https://photos.app.goo.gl/VGmrP1G4KU9HE66C8
(I switched to english temporarily to try to illustrate).
So, for every one of those attempts absolutely no resonse except for the pulsating dots was shown in Assistant! :/
So strange.
I zeroed my phone completely again, and set it up with my regular Google account but WITHOUT copying apps and settings. Assistant STILL WON'T DO BASIC TASKS LIKE TIMERS.
I zeroed it again and instead made a brand new Google account: Assistant immediately performs those basic tasks.
I really need some help here, please.

Sounds to me like there are some settings/options that you need to check by going to your Google account settings by going to the Google website via browser. If changing things locally within your device/Google settings isn't changing functionality in your account activity/usage but a new account is functioning, it has to be some kind of non local Google settings that need to be changed/erased/reset.
Or maybe you are having issues with sync functionality and not your Google related stuff.

Yeah, I would think so too. But I've gone over _everything_ I can find at google.com/account ... turning off and on, rebooting the phone inbetween etc. Revoking rights for apps that might interfere... nothing
What do you mean by "sync functionality" though?
Thanks for the response!
OK, so I went back and disabled all the data & privacy settings in Assistant, and now it can set a timer. But beyond that it's quite useless as it can't get access to make calls or do texts etc. So I gradually enabled setting by setting, and I've concluded that the "Web & App Activity" toggle breaks my Assistant somehow. It doesn't matter if I check or uncheck the "Include Chrome history..." or "Include voice and audio recordings" boxes, if the main toggle is on my Assistant hits some kind of wall with timers, texts and calls. Beyond this I can't understand what I can do to influence this?!
I'm having that hang issue when setting an alarm with Google Assistant on my account.
Using a different account works though. I'm not sure what setting in my account is causing this error.
Using Voice Search to set alarms is fine.

General Work profile notifications are not working

Other than the Wear Os app the Galaxy wearables app does not see work profile apps and will not push their notifications. Let's see if that gets fixed at some point.
if you have a samsung phone and use the secure folder as work profile, you can choose if you want the apps to be notified or not

Seeing the same thing. None of my work app notifications from employer show on the watch
I think this is another "only works on Samsung" thing.
I had this problem on my oneplus phone. Switched to a Samsung and it was working fine. (that was the experience I had on previous generation wear os and Tizen watches at least)
Yeah, it'd be nice if there was some sort of workaround for this. Even just as simple as bridging notifications without allowing actions on the Watch would be more useful than the current lack of anything.
It's also sort of odd, looking at the notification settings in the Wearable app shows that it does see that there was a notification coming from that app (gmail, calendar, etc.) even if it was a work profile notification, but won't allow the work profile apps to be synced on anything other than a samsung phone.

Yes I observers the same, I tried to bridge the notification by some apps but not working, You got any luck with Bridging? Also DUO Mobile app was working awesome with Andriod OS 2, But it isn't working here... Looks like Tizen thing is preventing it.
I've got a Galaxy Watch 4 Classic connected to a Not 20 Ultra. When I check in the Galaxy Wearables app, and go into Settings > Notifications and then hit "More" under "Most recent on phone or watch" I get a list of all personal and work profile apps sending notifications.
All Work profile apps and Duo Mobile had been se to "Off" by default. I've turned them on. We'll see how it goes...
{ETA: Success! Duo (via personal) and Slack (via Work) are sending notifications to the watch! I can't act on Duo except via the Phone, though, so not sure how useful that part actually is.}

Yeah, it seems like work profile works when paired to a samsung device, but not anything else, which is unfortunate.
Hey guys, I was facing the same issue of work-profile notifications not being visible on my galaxy watch 4, so I created an app to solve it. Please give it a try: WorkNotifier.
It's completely local, secure, and open-source. The link to code can be found on the play-store listing itself.

Hey guys, I was facing the same issue of work-profile notifications not being visible on my galaxy watch 4, so I created an app to solve it. Please give it a try: WorkNotifier.
It's completely local, secure, and open-source. The link to code can be found on the play-store listing itself.
If you face any issues with it, please let me know. I would love to help you out.
