Calendar Notifications Not Persistent

Just bought an 8 & seem to have an issue with notifications from the stock calendar app. Notifications come through but aren't persistent. So if I don't check the phone straight away to see what the notification was, it disappears all by itself. I'm used to Samsung's S-Planner where notifications remain until manually dismissed.
Edit
Turns out the notification only dismisses once the event is over. Still not great though if you hsppen to miss the initial notification.

Notification sound with no notification

I keep getting a notification sound at random intervals but there is no notification. I have tried disabling NFC and notification reminders per googles suggestions but that hasn't helped. I downloaded Notification Log History but it only shows actual notifications I am receiving not the ones I don't see. Any ideas?

I got those sounds until I turned off Notification Reminder.
You can have notifications turned on, but turn off the reminder.

Ok I finally figured it out. I had notifications disabled for 115 out of 132 of my apps through the settings menu. I went back, enabled all notifications to see what was going off all the time. Turns out I was getting numerous alerts from Tapatalk and Slickdeals. I went into both apps and disabled notifications through the actual app settings and my issues went away. Not sure why the apps override what I'm doing in the phone settings but they were. Hopefully in the future this helps others. In short, enable all apps in the phone settings and see what's notifying you. Go into those apps and disable notifications within the app.

Cannot alter Gmail notification settings

Hi
I am having a very odd problem on my Mi 8, Global Rom, MIUI 9.6.1
If I try to customise Gmail notifications (Nofications>>App notifications>>Gmail) I can adjust the basic notification settings.
But if I go into the Gmail app and try to adjust the more specific notifications settings there, nothing works:
Gmail>>Settings>>General settings>>Manage notifications There are sliders for notifications for email, attachments etc. But when I slide them and exit the page, if i go back in they have reset themselves.
and
Gmail>>Settings>>[email protected]>>Manage notifcations I cannot change the importance level, and if I turn on Blink light and exit the page, when I go back in it has turned itself off again.
As a result, I have almost no control over the notifications in Gmail.
I have uninstalled all Gmail updates and reinstalled. But it made no difference. Is this a conflict between MIUI notifications and stock Android notifications? Anyone else having this issue?
Thanks

Same issue
I have the same issue, with the same ROM.
I've tried everything I found on the internet on this subject, without any results.
I just don't get Gmail notifications. All remaining notifications work just fine. Also tried with Inbox instead of Gmail, but still no notifications!

Same on 10.0.0.3
Anyone managed to solve this?
I have same problem, can't change Gmail (also Chrome) notification settings.

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.

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
