xDrip no longer showing in notification panel after Android 15

[kenzo44]

xDrip version: Nightly build 11th Oct 2024
Device: Pixel 7 Pro

Updated to Android 15, xDrip is no longer showing up in the notification panel. The notifcation widget is being auto dismissed and can be viewed in the notification history.

I have made sure all permissions and notifications are enabled. I have also reinstalled the application. Not sure if something from Android 15 is auto dismissing the xdrip notification.

Can you show the entire screen?
Does it not show the xDrip icon?

[kenzo44]

no xDrip icon. Just AAPS. BYODA also shows up.

[Navid200]

Is the following enabled?

Settings > Less common settings > Other misc options > Run collector in foreground

[kenzo44]

Yes

Just adding that I'm having the same issue. Not sure exactly when it started, but I am still on Android 14 on a pixel 6 pro. Run collector in foreground is checked.

[Navid200]

I'm using Android 6a and I am running Android 15 on it. There was never a change in the xDrip notifications neither on Android 14, nor on Android 15.

I have updated...Done a clean install. Still have problems with xdrip showing in the notification panel.

[Navid200]

Is xDrip showing readings?

[crdphone10]

It is for me. I ran the test as well no crash as it warms might happen. But also, no number in the notification bar.

[Navid200]

And you have run collector in foreground enabled?

[Navid200]

Did you see the link? Here it is again: https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/177706092/notifications-are-being-intercepted-on-pixel-6-pro-showing-as-recently-dismissed?hl=en

Have you tried safe mode as it suggests?

[crdphone10]

Yes, "Run Collector in Foreground" is enabled.

I did try booting in safemode, and the notification still did NOT display. But isn't that to be expected? My understanding of android safemode is that it disables all third party apps, including Xdrip. So I cannot even open the app if I wanted to. So I wouldn't expect the notification to work in that mode.

[Navid200]

Restore your phone to factory settings.
Install xDrip only. Does it show the notification?

If yes, install your other apps one at a time. After you install every app, check to see if the xDrip notifications show without being dismissed until you find the app that is causing the problem.

I have a related, but slightly different issue with bg values not actually showing in the notification bar or lock screen (just the icon), even though I can validate they have been read recently from the source (Libre 3 Web Follower). Essentially, I see the xDrip "drop" icon 🩸 constantly in the notification area instead, but if I swipe down to look at the detailed notification UI, I do see read bg values for both followers with trends and their graphs 📉 (I'm using variant1 w/ normal xDrip installed as well). Its essentially acting like it hasn't read a valid bg value in a while, and not showing anything but the icon. I've run the notification test multiple times without any issues. I've restarted my phone multiple times, uninstalled and reinstalled and then imported settings from another phone that seems to work. It does seem to start working for a while, but then revert back to the above again randomly, and both of the flavors of xDrip seem to either work or not together 🤔

I'm running a Pixel 8 Pro with Android 14 installed with both the vanilla and variant 1 flavors of the latest release of xDrip (dfcbe80-2024.09.17).

I think the new Use xDrip Cloud option outlined here in the docs was likely my issue outlined above. I was seeing a number of "sync" issues on my following device that would start intermittently and then completely stop working after about 24 hours. It seems like turning on this new option on both the master and following devices as mentioned in the docs has likely (hopefully 🤞 ) resolved my issue.

Pixel 8 Pro with Android 15 and latest xdrip (a2bbca9) and NO notification whatsoever. No number icon, no ongoing notification showing at all. Everything being dismissed in history. Hasn't been working since Android 15. How to fix?

[Pentagit]

Alarms work just fine. Notifications for alarms appear as usual.

[Navid200]

Sounds like a notification channel setting.
Can you check Android notification channels for xDrip?

[Mootch]

I'm experiencing the same thing on a Pixel 8a since the Android 15 update. I have notification channels enabled in xdrip but it looks like the standard notification is falling into an uncategorized channel. However, the number notification icon test works for the limited test time.

[Navid200]

OK,

Can you perform an experiment?
If you disable notification channels in xDrip, will the ongoing notification come back?

[Pentagit]

No, that didn't work.

What is strange though is that my phone sometimes (not always) makes a notification sound when xdrip updates it's value. The sound of a default message rings and nothing else.

[Navid200]

This is my Android 15:

And I have no issues with notifications on Pixel 6a.

[Pentagit]

Is your pixel rooted and have you changed some of the default settings in developer mode?

[Navid200]

No, it is not rooted.
The only item I had enabled was USB debugging. But, after the update to the official Android 15, I have not even enabled the developer mode on it.

[MfN-CK]

I started having this problem immediately after updating to Android 15 on my Pixel 7.

I'm using Xdrip 2024.09.17.

As noted by others, the ongoing current blood sugar notification shows up in Notification History as "Recently Dismissed"

What is also kind of weird is that I use AutoNotification and Tasker to send data pulled from this notification to my custom Galaxy watch face... And that still works.

However, I did just manage to get this working, so maybe this can offer some clues as to the issue.

---

I use Niagra Launcher which has a feature called "Notification Summary."

Essentially this captures notifications from apps you select and presents them as a bundle a couple times a day.

Now, I never configured this to intercept xDrip notifications and I was still getting xDrip alarms after the Android 15 update.

However, as this had the ability to mess with notifications, I toggled the feature on and off... and that seemed to fix it.

I doubt everyone with the issue is using Niagra, but possibly other apps or launchers that have some control of notifications which just need a quick reset?

[Navid200]

Makes sense.

It may help anyone experiencing this problem to create a backup of everything and then restore their phone to factory settings. Then, only install xDrip. I doubt they would have this problem then.
Then, if they reinstall their apps on at a time, they should find out which app is responsible.

[Pentagit]

I too use Niagara launcher. Notification summary has always been disabled. It worked before Android 15. Switching to pixel launcher did not change xdrip notification behavior.
