Hi,
I have a Vivo nex dual screen and when I charge it during night (with an alarm set), It's like the phone kill all backgroud app until I unlock it. I have noticed it with whatsapp, if I just turn on the sceen on there isn't any notification (apps from google play store, notification from vivo apps or system are here) and when I unlock it, the notification appears, my friend have send a message in the night and from his app the message was sent but not recieved.
Anybody know what I have to do for these notifications ?

Go settings -all app and turn on each app one by one background activity plus notification to On.

Permission -single permission settings put everything to ON
Notification again everything to ON

By default everything is off.

But even then there's a chance again not receiving notification on time and only solution is disabling with adb Vivo battery management.

It's a service with the name "com.vivo.pem.

Instructions over here.

Strangest thing happened to my vivo.
I hard reset my vivo and now I can't login to my Google account. Due to that I can't use the phone now, it doesn't even load Google login screen for me to enter my credentials.

Vivo can't help and have asked me to go to the nearest support centre, which is in Asia somewhere and I'm in the UK.
I don't think I'll buy vivo in the future purely because of not having any support for UK customers.

Did you tried log in using different play store or play services version??
Most of the case that resolve the issue.

Apk mirror you can find older or newer version since you hard reset the phone and return to oldest Google version had just like when purchased the phone.

It's impossible not find a solution.

Not sure how to do that as I cant get passed login screen to get to home screen.

I'm essentially stuck at setup screen.
After resetting the phone don't do anything(setup etc) but just installed only the latest version and then try to log in to your account.

Can't you setup without entering Google account??
To select skip all the steps until get to home screen?

OK let's try something different.
Try log in with different Google account(from someone else account for example relative person a friend or else go to pc and create a new Google account)and then after successful login just installed the oldest that you used through the phone account settings and log out the new one.

Jusus Christ what a mess!!!
Unfortunately I don't know other solution since my last proposal helped me one time that couldn't log in with my account(not Vivo phone it was ZTE Axon 7 I remember had that issue after resetting the phone)

Can you tried reset the phone through recovery and hoped that helps.

Or alternative talk to Vivo support and ask them to download official rom for dual display and tried repair through recovery menu by installing the full rom.

Hi All

I received vivo nex dual global version.

It looks great and works pretty well.

Quick review



Pros

Bezeless

Very responsive

Heavy feels premium

No noticeable lag

Dual screen

Vibrant screen

Loud speakers

Good camera

4k 60fps video

Fingerprint very responsive works 9/10 faster then huawei mate 20 pro

Good clear call quality

Install 3rd party launchers very easily

Battery life lasted me all day no sweat



Cons

Funtouch - hardly notice its 9.0

Speakers loud bit low on the bass side

Bit thick

Screen brightness

1080p screen



Overall good innovative phone, could be better but then would be more expensive.

It will be my daily driver for now



Any questions pls give me a shout

No choice but to send back to retailer in Hong Kong

Hello, I have this Vivo phone and the only problem I have is when I set Nova launcher as default launcher in the front screen is fine the resolution but in the back screen is smaller than all screen. I tried with diferents launchers but only with funtouch launcher can rescale and show all back cover screen while with anothes launchers its smaller resolution. Has you seen? The system cant overscale the others launchers resolutions for back screen I think :confused:

Got yesterday my dual display version Chinese version 10/128.

First impression compered to Vivo Nex Chinese version is that out of the box has much less pre installed Chinese bloatware.

Later I will do detail thoughts and feedback about this unique device.

Yes I'm having the same issue I've already send a message via Facebook messenger to Vivo support.

I'm waiting for an answer and will provide details for this.

You should do the same thing,talk with them otherwise they wouldn't think of fixing it.
