Widgets not working properly after Oreo Update

[[email protected]]

Huawei battety optimizations mixed with doze are very s*tty and just as much ineffective. I often get my Fb messenger notifications late, but other apps like snapchat dont even send them anymore. Even my own app does not work that uses and oreo optimized third-party library. My advice is that dont expect a solution from devs, we cannot do anything about it unfortunately

I have the same problem with digical + emui launcher or nova or lawnchair...working and planning is an hell now...

This guy developes a widget and might found the reason (caching)
Someone want to try his widget ?

 

[ClausG76]

Thanks for all the answers. Does anyone know if they fixed it yet? Went back to Android 7 to fix it temporarily

 

[Swaddy]

I went back to 7 as well. But there might be light at the end of the tunnel
- Business Calendar 2 Beta has a Huawei Workaround
- Some report that Nova Launcher 'Restart widgets on resume'-setting works

 

[ClausG76]

Thanks.
But it would be better oh Huawei fixed their firmwares instead all other software doing workarounds

Press Volume Down in the Nova settings for the lab. Option "Restart widgets..."Lab Guide

I've got an update this morning, seems to be in the newest productive version of the app now (2.29)

why? All widgets I use are working well. So in MY opinion its not Huawei fault. But just my opinion.

Ok.
Are you using Huawei widgets? The biggest problem is, when you contact the programmers of the non working widgets. They can't fix it because the widgets works on non Huawei phones, and they don't have Huawei phones.
One of the reasons for that I have been using Android phones for so many years, is that I'm able to customize the layout with widgets. So only having a few widgets available is not good for me. So I was hoping that Huawei will fix it, so their phones will work like their competitors do.

Or. They might have fixed it in the meantime. Since they actually acknowledged the fault.

I was on Oreo since beta version. I am using it ng or have used google calendar widget, google keep, event flow widget, meteor widget, gmail widget, weather widget.. all works well. OK maybe i am using widgets that are the few ones that works on Oreo.

When I was on B360 widgets weren't refreshing . On the new B369 they refresh . I checked the option in Nova Launcher in Labs menu the option for refreshing . But before I install nova ( fresh install) they were refreshing normally !

 

[mega180]

So for B360 Oreo I can confirm that business calendar widget seems to work with Nova launcher and refresh widget option. (Google calendar works but no tasks and no configuration, aCalendar+ seems to work but does not synchronize).

Hello, I still have this issue with version 369 on my P10.
"Wunderlist" and "Business Calendar" Widgets are not updating and some apps can not be launched using "Pie Control".

This state did not change since the update to Oreo like 4 Months ago.

With 369 on my P10 problem still remains. I have problem with huawei calendar widget, sofa score and agenda widget.

 

[DallasCZ]

huawei calendar widget is working for me all the time since Oreo update....

ACalendar+ implemented a workaround that seems to work well.
