[Q] Tile Cache - Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My photo tile is active, I go into my photos and delete some.
But when I return to the Start Screen, the photos I deleted are still running in the photo tile.
If I remove the tile, then reapply it, the deleted photos are gone.
Is there another way to refresh tiles? I think we tried a restart but that didn't work.
Peace

Same question for the Phone tile. It shows a voicemail notification.
I cleared out the voicemail, but the notification won't go away.

Notifications stay in status bar after interaction - Help

Every time I get a notification, I click on it in the notification bar and it takes me to the app (messages or Gmail or whatever). I can read the message, delete the email, etc.. but when I drag down notifications the notification is still there... They used to no longer show the notification after interacting.
Why are they not clearing once clicked? Very annoying. I don't think was happening when I first installed Lollipop, but maybe. Anyone else have this or know why it may be doing this? I have to go back and manually clear them after interacting.

Problem with Heads-Up notifications

Edit: think I discovered this is not just a note 8 issue, how do I delete this thread?
I'm not getting most heads up notifications on my T-Mobile Note 8. Notifications just appear in the notification drawer. I do get the sound/vibration though
Some apps are working reliably (hangouts, ring), others are not (outlook, inbox). Those are the easiest for me to test, so I haven't looked much into others.
I uninstalled pebble and android wear just in case those were interfering. I've rebooted a million times. Turned off everything with notification access just in case.
I turned off the edge light feature, just in case. No change. Also turned it on for everything, the screen doesn't edge light for outlook or inbox.
Any settings that might have been enabled/disabled accidentally?
also, tried resetting app preferences from advanced notification settings, no luck
Any thoughts?
edit: i'm seeing this in my logs but not entirely sure it's related
"09-28 13:57:55.567 1188-1188/? E/NotificationService: Suppressing notification from package by user request."
Also, tried disabling, then enabling those apps notifications
Wiped my phone and installed inbox and outlook, they still don't show notifications in a popup. they make their sound/vibe and appear in the drawer, but still dont show up as a headsup notification so I get no altert if If i have my phone on silent.

Notification issue?

My notification dots are frozen, it tells me I have a notification for Facebook, Twitch and when I open the app they don't seem to clear, I shouldn't even be getting notifications because they're dismissed through the drop down when I get them. Happened in the last few hours. Anyone else having the same issue?
I haven't experienced your problem. I'm assuming by notification dots you mean App Badges that show the unread/unresponded to count. These typically go away when you tap the icon in the notification panel to view the event or swipe the notification away in the notification panel. If you're doing one or both of these actions and the count remains try disabling the App Badges for the affected apps and then enabling them again.
Settings>Apps>locate the affected apps>Notifications>App Badges, toggle it off, then back out and then go back in and toggle it on if you still wish to view them.
In another instance where I saw something like this happening the user also tried clearing the cache and app data, but didn't achieve success until they uninstalled the app and installed it again. That wouldn't work for Facebook however because it is a pre-installed app and therefore cannot be uninstalled but it can be disabled. That could be enough if the above method doesn't work for you.

Notification Issues.... three questions from a new owner

This is my first Galaxy watch, so maybe I have a few settings or something wrong, but I can't figure out why the Watch3 shows a digital clock when there are notifications and doesn't go back to the "home screen," my watch face.
On my Android WearOS watch, when I have a notification come through, the screen changes to let me know what it is, and then if I do nothing, it goes back to the watch face I have selected. On the Watch3, if any notification comes through, I MUST do something (press the home side button, rotate the bezel, etc) in order to go back to the watch face or else it shows a persistent large digital clock as if I'm 10 years old and need to see numbers in order to read the time!
Second question, semi related to the first, but which setting do I uncheck so that a notification doesn't open full screen and I have the ability to swipe up to remove it or click on it to expand it? Is that "Show with details?" Turning that off means I can manipulate the notification without having to hit the back button first, then swipe up to clear or rotate bezel to see other notifications?
Final question, why do I have to go into the Notification settings on my phone to see recently sent notifications and manually turn them on when "Turn on for new apps" is in the on position? When an app sends a new notification from my new Note20 Ultra to my new Watch3, I see it listed in this section but I have to manually allow it to notify my watch even though "new apps" is selected and should be letting anything NEW to come through on the watch without having to okay it first! Any thoughts on why that is or what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Question Notifications not showing on lock screen

So this is weird. I am not using dark mode. I removed Vivo.pem. I followed (I think) all the instructions to activate notifications. At the begginning my notifications come perfectly everywhere(I have it to light the screen when notification comes).
However, after a while or a few minutes the meesages still come but the screen does not light up nor does anything show on lockscreen. They do show on the dropdown screen and they do show on the app icon as well.
I use Nova usually, I tried with and without Nova to no avail. However when I reboot the messages show (sometimes) on lockscreen..afterwhich they stop. its like something blocks all notification to lockscreen after a while.
Did I miss someting in the instructions?

Set your lockscreen notifications this way . Than individually allow apps you want to show notifications on lockscreen . And you're good to go .
I do(I think).
It's not about the lighting of the screen per say,it's about the messages not showing(or screen lighting) after a while on the lockscreen. It becomes a clean lockscreen ..but when I go to drop down menu or check the badges on the apps they are all there.
Again it works sometimes at the beginning then stops populating the lockscreen
I don't know if it works for you or not but try these for the apps you wanna get the notifications.
1. Disable Allow smart notification control.
2. Enable the settings from 2nd screenshot.
ah..ok I see...will give it a shot

Mine doesn't have that option.
"Allow Smart notification control"
Mine doesn't either ..but I think that there is a general setting that says enable and disable which makes it not show on a per app level.
On another note..the messages all of a sudden started to show. And I did NOTHING DIFFERENT. I had the exact settings as in attachments.I had previously rebooted the phone like many times to no avail.
I know we're beating a deadhorse with vivo notifications, but man how can someone mess up something so simple ....and it's so hard to figure it out when you can't really replicate it .
I have this thought: If the notifications are still coming but just not showing on the lock screen, on Samsung phones (S21, S22....) also, it just notifies the app icon. notifications come in without lighting up the screen and showing a summary of what is being notified normally like other phones. I fixed it with a Glimpse Notifications software available on the Play Store. All incoming notifications will light up the lock screen and show a summary of the content like other phones
