    Notification & ring tone goes back to default

    B. Diddy Senior Ambassador I only realised now: note my second screenshot, the one that I get by APPS, MESSAGES, NOTIFICATIONS (Allowed), INCOMING MESSAGES, the title of the screen is INCOMING MESSAGES, MESSAGES, DEFAULT SETTINGS, (emphases on DEFAULT ). Nothing default on that for sure.

    Notification & ring tone goes back to default

    B. Diddy Senior Ambassador Here you can see that NOTIFICATION SOUND is declared for the 3rd time; once as PULSE BEAM and twice as CALM, even tough when I get a NEW (meaning, never got any message from this contact, sometimes also from some apps; I still didn't figured out which ones and...

    Notification & ring tone goes back to default

    This is a screenshot with the 2 rows of 39 icons that I get when I select REPLY TO THIS message. None of them is the usual PAPER CLIP that we normally use to ATTACH a doc or pic, hence my confusion. I had to hover one by one to find the one to use to INSERT IMAGE. On UBUNTU the 3rd icon from...

    Notification & ring tone goes back to default

    This is where it gets weird. The sound that I set on APPS, MESSAGES, NOTIFICATION (set to Allowed), INCOMING MESSAGES, SOUND = Pulse Beam, it is never changed, but then it NEVER rings. Yes, I never heard that sound when a message is received from either a new contact/messenger or known...

    Notification & ring tone goes back to default

    Abt 2 years ago my cell phone was stolen. Because SMART LOCK never worked & I was kind of fed up with entering the PIN over & over, I took the security lock off. So I gave the thief an unlocked phone, ready for him /her to use it, thanks to SMART LOCK being so stupid. So I can say that ANDROID...

    Notification & ring tone goes back to default

    Uninstalled CMM: changed the MESSAGE app; just download a new security patch (Android 11, UI 3.1). Got a few NEW SMSs and all changed my RING TONE & NOTIFICATION SOUND settings back to DEFAULT. Anyone knows how to delete the ANDROID /CASSIOPEIA NOTIFICATION SOUND? It's the default NOTIFICATION...

    Smart Lock is not working

    We should all put pressure on Google to implement that. This subject is coming up again and again, but they just don't listen. As I said, they can't monetize wifi. Does anyone know an app that does that? I am sure that Google will work its best to restrict that app,if any on the maket. I...

    Notification & ring tone goes back to default

    I will try that. But why would Android, so rightfully paranoid about security, let an app play and change system settings? I set CHANGE SYSTEM SETTINGS to NOT ALLOWED right from the beginning. I doubt that is the cause of all this screw up, but I will do that. I forgot to bring this up, but I...

    Why is the design of Android 12 so horrible?

    I said it already, Android 11 made me think for the first time hard about Apple. Now I read that 12 is also crappie. So, in 6 months time my contract is over and Apple, I am coming.

    Notification & ring tone goes back to default

    No difference. Just got a NEW SMS and this stupid Android 11 ignored my settings and used the default NOTIFICATION SOUND, changing also the RING TONE (why, oh why changing the RING TONE also). I checked on SETTINGS & both, the RING TONE and the NOTIFICATION SOUND are back to the default. This...

    Notification & ring tone goes back to default

    Just changed my RING TONE to use one of the stock ring tones to try that. But I don't thing will make a difference. I say that because I changed the NOTIFICATION SOUND many many times, using the stock NOTIFICATION SOUND and I still have the problem. But let me try it.

    Smart Lock is not working

    Maps will drain your battery much faster than wifi. But since Google wants to know where you are all the time, spy on you, they don't care. Smart lock using wifi will not be an option. Using AI and a triangulation of the cell towers you are logged on, the phone can detract your location with...
