Hey all, I hope somebody can help me out with this. I've noticed this problem with multiple apps but I will continue my description with Whatsapp as it's the most important to me.
It seems to be random, but some (becoming most) times I don't receive any notifications from whatsapp. When i open the app, i can see the app "updating" and receiving all the messages that were sent to me since the previous launch.
I have gone to the battery management and turned whatsapp to manual mode with all 3 options enabled (auto launch, secondary app launch and background usage)
I've also turned on unlimited data restrictions for the app.
I'm still facing the same issue. Anybody else out there facing the same thing with whatsapp or any other app? Any ideas how to fix this?
Same problem messaged Huawei and got a real crap guide on how to fix it . There "fix" was to hard reset the phone which we all know a new phone should work out of the box what good is a hard reset going to do apart from wipe the phone
It could be a network issue. Sometimes when am on wifi every notification comes on time(tested it with my second phone). When i switch on 4g , notification can have a considerable delay. And not only watsapp. Instagram facebook gmail you name it.

Have you try to put out whatsapp from battery optimization apps...
Settings, Apps, Apps, press 4 dots upper right corner, special access (or something like that), exclude whatsapp or any other app from battery optimization
My notfications are working, but sometimes it doesn't play the notification sound for whatsapp. It seems to be random, does anybody know how to fix this?

Ok I had this before on my nexus but cannot remember how I fixed it.
I get an sms and it shows in notification but when I open the sms there are no text in the message. It just disappears.
And it happens in Hangout and Messenger.
What's the main sms process ? Want to see if I force stop and clear data if it will fix the problem
Thanks Rudolph
Does anybody know why this happens? I have the same issue but am not sure how to fix it.
Would really appreciate the help
Same issue here. Nexus 6 on Android N.
I have Hangouts as the default messaging app.
When I receive a text message, a heads up notification pops up but when I open hangouts the message is gone.
I also tried to switch to the Google Messenger app. In this case I can receive texts but I cannot send them...
Textra seems to work fine but it's not my cup of tea...
Anyone knows how to fix this, please?
Now it's getting even weirder.
It looks like whatever SMS I delete in Hangouts or Messenger gets restored after I close and reopen the app...
It looks like that whatever I do in Messenger or Hangouts goes nowhere and does nothing.

This is why it is an alpha build and not really meant for day to day use.
Same issue here.
I searched old threads, and found there is a solution, just reboot to safety mode, and send a sms to yourself. Then reboot to normal...
However, it doesn't work for me.
I have just found what may have caused the issue (at least in my case) and it was entirely my fault.
I basically dirty flashed the N alpha on top of my previous 6.0.1 installation where I had made quite a few changes, instead of doing a clean installation.
That plus the fact that some SMS/MMS things have now changed in M (for example the telephony databases are no more stored in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony but are now under /data/user_de/0/com.android.providers.telephony ) may have messed up my system.
I've now done a clean installation and all seems to be fine with SMS in Hangouts for the time being.
Other small annoyances (mainly related to the cellular data connection) also seem to be gone now.
The SMS issue reappeared after some time (i.e. Incoming text messages are shown in notifications but they are not saved in Hangouts or Messenger).
After having done all sort of different tests, it looks like the issue may be related to a language setting.
The Android N alpha allows you to set two languages under Settings > Language & input > Language.
- With just one language enabled, all is fine.
- With 2 languages enabled, Hangouts and Messenger seem to work ok for some time, then the disappearing-SMS bug comes back. The only workaround I could find is to disable the second system language and reboot the phone.
After the latest 8.2 update, my Facebook messenger keeps deactivating chat heads over apps, every other day.
I can turn it on, and it works for 1-2 days, and then it happened again..
Any solutions for a permanent fix?
One option might be moving messenger over and making it a system app. Usually the fix is enabling "Display Pop Up Window" in the permissions for Messenger.
It's already enabled in messenger, but it keeps removing it every other day? :/

There's a difference between turning on chat heads in messenger and enabling the permission. Are you currently only turning it on in Messenger?
When I turn it on in messenger it takes me to the permissions, where I enable it. After 1-2 days it automatically disable itself.
It actually does the same with Google calender permission. Really annoying, I don't know a permanent fix for it.
Found it.
Just go to security( Its a system app) --permission--other permission-- messenger-- Accept on display pop up window ??
The extra beeping is like a door opening sound at a corner store, two quadruple beeps of the same tone played at the same time as the tone I set. I can remove the one I set but not the beeps (unless i silence). It was working fine until I installed some work software to receive work e-mails securely. Can't see how that would mess things up, but even so I should be able to change the beeping tone somehow. I have gone through the settings in the message app (3 dot), notification tone option removes my tone not the beeps same as through settings the normal way. Thanks for the help.
I just got my phone, and I'm having the same issue...
I get the sms notification sound I had set, and I get the additional beeping (to me it sounds like a fire alarm).
I've tried other sms apps (Textra ans Signal) and it's the same issue with them as well.
Have you or anyone else a solution to this?
For anyone having the same issue, I fixed it with a factory reset, and I didn't import any old settings. When I first set up my phone I imported stuff from my google cloud sync, and that might have caused the issue. When I imported my previous settings, it also installed all my old apps, so one of those apps could have caused the issue as well. If I find the culprit of this bug, I will post a followup here for anyone who also might experience it.
i got my p20 pro yesterday and have it update but dont have this problem
I had this issue. I disabled private space and it was solved. It maybe had to do with the private space counterpart of the Messages app getting a duplicate notification for SMS. You could try disabling/silencing it if you don't want to disable private space completely. Hope this helps.
Hello there,
I tried several Android 9 custom roms from the local xda rom forum and faced an issue with WhatsApp notifications in all of them.
When I use the phone and receive a new message, it shows a notification for it properly, I also get notifications in the lockscreen if the phone was used like 5 minutes ago.
But as soon as the phone is unused for like 15 minutes and I wake it up, no WhatsApp notifications are shown (notifications from other apps are), neither in the lockscreen nor after I woke it up. I then need to open the app manually, only then I get all new messages and corresponding notifications at one blow.
So far, WhatsApp is the only app where I noticed this problem, notifications from other apps like Telegram and Gmail work without trouble and as intended.
I always do a clean flash, don't use any customizations and set up WhatsApp freshly. I also excluded WhatsApp from Doze in the battery settings, but this didn't solve the problem.
In MIUI and other Nougat-based roms, I don't face this issue. I didn't test many Oreo-based roms to give a report about them concerning this issue.
I'm not sure if I do something wrong or if there really is an issue.
Do WhatsApp notifications work for you without problems?
Or do some of you also face this issue? If yes, were you able to fix it?

I am having same issue with WhatsApp.
Gmail and Telegram works fine for me, there is no issue with that. but i have issue with Instagram direct message that it does not shows until i open app but other notifications such as comment,new following are shown properly but i think it is a bug with Instagram since other notifications working fine.

Does anyone of you facing a problem with TikTok notifications? I have a problem only with this app, all the notifications are ok, but with this app I have a problem. In particular, I cannot receive DMs notifications, with all my other phones I have no problems...
Of course, all the notifications are enabled and I already tried to set the app to avoid battery optimization but it doesn't work.
The strange thing is that it seems the messages arrive whenever I open the app, not in background
