I'm using Facebook for Android and I seem to having a problem. I keep unchecking the Notifications box because I don't want to receive notifications, but the app continues to give me notifications. What gives?
And PLEASE don't tell me to use Flow. I tried that and had some dealbreaking problems.
Bump. Anyone? This is really bothering me.
ok I am having the worst luck with TINY problems on this D4. so I was having a problem where blurcontactsync was causing my contacts to crash if I tried to use them, I found a simple fix to rename the apk to .bak, and it worked
Now I noticed that when I get a text message I do not receive any kind of notification. No smiling message in the notification bar, no notification tone, no vibrate. I have gone into text message settings and set the tone, I have gone into general settings and set the tone. I even went into titainium backup and froze "Messaging, and Universal Inbox" because I thought they might be interfering just like the blur contacts sync. no luck Still do not receive any kind of indication not even the LED flashing.
all my other notifications work fine, if I get an email, or a missed call I get a notification tone and a flashing green light....I extensively searched XDA and people were having this problem with the droid X but it was some kind of update bug and was fixed with a new patch....anyone have any ideas what I could do to get my notifications working again??
Hmm I can't replicate this problem on mine but do you use the stock text messaging app? Try a third party texting app like Handcent and then send a test to yourself from text.vzw.com and see if you get the notification.

yea I'm currently using the stock app I was hoping to avoid a 3rd party app but I guess Im going to dive into that. I can just freeze my stock msg app right?

I wouldn't freeze the stock messaging app, I believe that's still necessary even with a 3rd party app (speaking of, I highly recommend GoSMS, but have also been happy with Handcent in the past).
I remember seeing over on DroidForums.net that someone froze their stock messaging app and wasn't receiving any texts after that. Give it a shot but if you don't get any texts for a while I'd unfreeze
It's been almost a week since the stock Messages app started acting up.
If I try to open the app by tapping the icon, it will start, briefly show the messages and close itselt with an error prompt that allows me to close it or send an error report. If I receive an SMS and tap the notification, the app opens and shows the message, I can reply and it works fine this way.
Restarting the phone sometimes solves this right away but it appears at random times. I don't text that much via SMS (mainly WhatsApp and Skype) but it's annoying to not be able to open the app to send an SMS on the rare occasions I need to.
I have an unlocked US model, I'm not rooted or anything. Using stock with Nova Launcher Prime and a couple icon packs.
Has anyone experienced this problem with the Messages app?
I'm currently waiting for the 4.2.2 update to show on the phone. I hope this is fixed in this update.
If the update doesn't fix it, I will try Textra or SMS Now. I've read good things bout them but I really didn't need an extra messaging app since I received or need to send 1-3 SMS a day.
Having a 3rd-party SMS apps will interfere with the stock Contacts and Dialer apps in some way?

First thing I would do is go into settings > apps >all. Go to messages then force stop. Reset defaults and delete data.. That should reset anything you may have changed on error. If that doesn't work do a factory reset. If that doesn't work then I would say your launcher has a conflict

I already deleted its cached data and reset default options. Could be Nova Prime Launcher having a conflict with Messages, but the strange thing is that it started to happen long after installing Nova.
I'm waiting for the 4.2.2 update. When it shows I will update and do a factory reset.
Thanks
I've had this phone for a few days and I've noticed that if not getting any notifications for Hangouts. I have to constantly check the app to see if I missed messages. It's the only app that's doing this to me. No problems with any other app. Anyone having this issue?
YES!!
It's pretty annoying because I am missing a bunch of google voice texts because of this.

I've noticed this as well -- but it seems to happen when I leave Hangouts as the active app on the screen when I turn it off (or it times out). If I go back to my home screen and out of Hangouts, then I get the message notifications.

Odd that a core Google app would have this problem when no 3rd-party app has done it. But Hangouts is due for an update anyways....

I saw this for the first time today when I picked up my nexus 7 and saw I had a google voice text from several hours earlier. Opened hangouts on my phone and saw the text had been received, but I couldn't remember seeing a notification. It then happened again a couple hours later. I've had the phone since Thursday and been receiving hangouts notifications until this morning.
I've been having the same problem. Has anyone seen a fix

I thought it was an issue with the ROM I'm using and/or the kernel. But as it turns out my girlfriend, using a Stock, Unrooted T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Avant, isn't receiving any hangouts notifications either. It seems it could be a bug across all hangouts apps. She has android version 4.4.2. And hangouts version 2.5.81636427, same as me.
Same problem here, 100% factory. Noticed lots of texts a day after they came in with no notification.
so everybody thats using greenify, and doesnt have hangouts greenified, there is a greenify setting that many enable) but will prevent you from getting a hangouts notification.. the setting is to have greenify notify you if you get notifications. turn if off and dont turn it on, as it will prevent you from getting hangouts notifications.
I'm not using anything like greenify. Running a custom kernel but this problem seems to happen regardless of kernel changing.
MMS Bug Again
I'm starting to think it's related to the MMS bug creeping back in again from the Developer Preview.
If you go into Hangouts and try to edit your Access Point Names, you won't be able to because the menu drop down isn't there
I'm having the same issue. I'll hear the hangouts messahes come in on my Nexus 5, but nothing shows up on my Nexus 6 and I have to manually scroll the conversation to eventually get it to update (when I finally updates)
It's within the settings of SMS from the Hangouts app.

Did you read the rest of my post @dawad
Yes, I did, which I responded that it's in the SMS settings from within Hangouts. APN doesn't appear if you select your hangout account, but is in the settings menu of Hangouts>SMS.
I'm seeing the same issue on my stock Note4, I'll not hear any verbal notification and don't see any visual notification, only way to know a text is received is to open hangouts and then I see several new texts.
Has anyone found a solution yet?
Same issue, I'm going to try what Simms suggested.

It appears to be a bug. I have the same thing with my email app and messaging. I'll look online for a fix
