All of a sudden I have 1 number in my phone that I do not get notifications from when they text me. My phone for not ring, vibrate, light up, nothing. This only happens with this one number, all other contacts work fine. I'm using the default messaging app and on the latest Google update. Has anyone has this issue. Is there something that maybe I clicked on that could have caused this.

You haven't accidentally blocked that number by accident have you?
To check this do the following, go to the messaging app > click on the 3 dot menu > check to see if the number/contact is listed there.
If it is click on the contact/number and then click on unblock.
Hope this is of some help.
It doesn't sound like this is your issue, but carriers will have a separate block-list that works account-wide. For example, numbers blocked in the Google Fi app will be blocked for all phones covered by that account. I seem to remember my last carrier having something similar on their website.
Although, can you clarify something... does the SMS appear in your messaging app and there's no notification... or does nothing at all appear?

The message appears in the messaging app, I just don't get any notification. As far as I can see, it hasn't been blocked anywhere. It is my son's phone number so I know I wouldn't have done it purposely. I've thought about dirty flashing the FW again to see if that fixes it out just wait till the new one comes out next month

I checked and the number is not blocked. Hopefully next months update will fix it when I flash it.
If you use Messages, look at the notification settings and make sure you haven't toggled a conversation name off. Doing so would match what you're seeing.

Ok thank you. I'll check that, but suddenly it is working again. I am leading toward it being a glitch in the FW. I'm gonna wait till the new one comes out and upgrade it and see if it happens again

New update for google voice!! It includes (I think) push notification for text messages!
Yeah it does. Read more here: http://googlevoiceblog.blogspot.com/2010/03/faster-google-voice-experience-on.html
Yep, sure looks that way. I wonder if it's necessary to put Google Voice on ignore list for task killer apps though.

Yes it is. If you kill the GV process, you won't receive notifications.
Advanced Task Manager has "Apps", "Services", "All Apps", and "System". I think it's OK to kill it from "Apps", but not the other tabs.
I don't seem to get push notifications on my voicemail. I haven't check with texts yet....
hooray!!!!

You may have already done this, but it case you haven't, there's a new setting that has to be enabled for the instant notifications to work.

Same here. I had to go to my backup file in oder to use it. Thank Goodness for Back-Ups
Same here. I was, however, able to sign in after selecting "sign in using a different account" and using my same account info.
I love this update because of the sync with inbox. When I first finished installing the update I couldn't send a sms or do the sync so I just rebooted, ran fix_permissions, and that fixed everything!
The google blog post said the inbox syncing would stop the forwarding of a google voice SMS to the phone's regular SMS number. That is NOT the case for me. I'm still getting google voice SMS'es forwarded to my cell's number. This double text receiving is the single greatest aggravation of google voice texting.

That worked....but the weird thing is I don't have inbox sync as a new option. I still have the refresh option, but it says that it's the new version. I'll try to uninstall and reboot.
edit: Still no new options.
Guys, am I alone in this? The new Voice app is not syncing/pushing texts for me, nor is it not forwarding. It's behaving like the old one.

Why even whine about this? Just go to the website and uncheck forwarding.

You don't understand how Voice forwarding works. The "forwarding" setting on the Voice website is for additional forwarding of a text to an email address. Voice by default has always forwarded to the cell phone number associated with the Voice account. That was supposed to end with this update.
The Google blog post says the following:
"...feature called Inbox synchronization, which will notify your Android-powered device of new text messages or voicemails within seconds of receiving new messages..."
and
"Plus, Google Voice will automatically disable SMS forwarding to your mobile phone, so you won’t receive duplicate notifications."
It's odd to me that both these features do not work. Maybe we can figure out something by discussing.
btw, why is this whining? We're discussing an app and its features. We're trying to get this working and comparing notes with others. I don't whine... ever. We're blessed to have such amazing phones and software to begin with.
Hey,
Just picked up a Note 3 through work, and have it connected via ActiveSync to my work's exchange server.
I used to have a GNEX with the same configuration, so I know this problem is due to the new device.
When I receive an email, and hit Reply All, it includes me on the response - but on my GNEX, this was never the issue, it would only reply to the other people in the email thread.
Does anyone know what the deal is with this? Am I missing a setting somewhere (I honestly don't know where everything is, with this ****ty TW layout).
Any help is appreciated.

There's a "Make Reply-All the default" option, but that's about it.

I can't find it as well. This is weird. When I hit the two arrows at the bottom (Reply to all)
It does not include me. You don't have that "Make Reply-All" checked right? If so, I would take that off.
When reading an email, at the bottom you should have multiple buttons to use.
One back arrow for reply
Two back arrows together for reply all
One forward arrow to forward emails
The trash can looking icon
and last, next and back icon to go between emails quicker.
This is whats on all my emails when opened and I have no issues at all.

yes, Make Reply-All The Default is checked. even without it though, i get the same problem.
interestingly enough, this also happens in Gmail.
just did a factory reset, going to see if that changes anything.

OK, a factory reset solved it in both Email and Gmail.
In the Samsung Email app, if you go into Settings and pick Show More Settings, there is a "Auto CC/BCC" option. Strangely enough, this was unchecked (set to None) while this strangeness was happening.
Factory reset, then flashed the 4.4 Email and Exchange apks, then added my work account. Still experienced the same "Reply-All-Includes-Me" issue in 4.4 Email, didn't check Gmail. Added my work account to the Samsung Email app, and the problem disappeared. Deleted my account from the Samsung Email app, and now the 4.4 Email app is working properly.
Thanks for your help with this, it's greatly appreciated.

No problem, glad you figured it out. That would of drove me crazy.
so on kitkat i had the voicemail icon stuck. i use google voice, and i think this is just a standard verizon voicemail icon. i've checked and there are no new voicemails.
i figured when i upgraded to lollipop it would go away. well guess what, it didn't. so i did a factory reset, and now it's back.
i found that by deleting the data and wiping the cache on one of the 4 phone apps, i'm able to get rid of it, but then when i reset the device it comes back.
any help please!!!!

What happens if you go to settings-apps-voicemale untick show notification?
Have you maybe disabled the default messaging app?
The verizon system voicemail notifications come through to your phone as an encoded txt message, so if the messaging app isn't correctly parsing those to the system, it may not clear the voicemail icon.

i have disabled the both the verizon and motorola native messaging apps. i use hangouts. any suggestion on how to correct the messaging apps?
To test that theory, enable the Verizon messaging app again, then have someone leave you a voicemail. Call your voicemail and delete it. It should clear the voicemail notification. Then you can probably disable it again and see if it still happens the next time someone leaves a voicemail for you.

i followed those steps though i'm doubtful it will work. i was already able to check myvzw voicemail by just hitting *86 and there were no messages. when i followed these steps there were also no messages. i'm restarting now.
and it's back up and running with "2 new voicemail".
ugh.....
Did you try leaving yourself a voicemail and clearing it that way? Someone else mentioned it in the thread but didn't see you respond to doing it.

That's the point, there are no voicemails.just notifications.
I'm still looking into a way to fix it man and as soon as I can find something substantial, I'll let you know. I can only imagine how annoying having those persistent notifications would be
Already tried clearing cache and force stopping. Every time I try to open the app, it just closes right away. Any thoughts on the issue?

It was. Weird thing happened, I apparently had a voicemail--once I listened to and deleted that, the app started opening again. Really strange.
Is it stock? If you flashed something, like a ROM or an app, it is probably that and you need to (clean?) re-flash the ROM. Happened to me before on another phone when I flashed, and a re-flash fixed it. NVM, seems you have it working now.

I had the same issue seems like the phone app can't handle voicemail. I turned off visual voicemail to see if I can isolate the issue. Let's see what happens. BTW does anyone know if the source code of phone app is opensource or not?
EDIT: I think I know what the issue is, the voicemail I received was from a private number (VOIP). Looks like visual voicemail was unable to determine the caller number and died (I did not look into the logs but I am fairly certain about it).
installing tmobile visual voicemail and deleting my voicemails fixed my issue. hope this helps someone.

Thanks I did a similar thing. I dialed my Voicemail from Truecaller and deleted them. So from what I have tested the default dialer app was not able to handle visual voicemail from Private/Unknown number. Looks like someone overlooked a null pointer error.

I had the same issue. It turns out that I had a voicemail that was not deleted from an "unknown" number (t-mobile usa). The phone app was not able to handle it and crashed. I am assuming the phone number field was empty and whatever data that was there in its place from next field simply corrupted its memory or caused it to segv. I think this is just a bug in their phone app. In order to replicate the issue, just have someone block and send the voicemail to them and try opening the app, it crashes without any incident. Is there a way to see any exception thrown? or is that not on the consumer build?

You can use the user feedback app installed on the latest stock rom
Open it and recreate your crash and submit report to oneplus
If possible they will rectify in the next update

I've tried to figure out where it is coming from, but have no idea. It has only appeared for text messages and facebook alerts. I've checked setting for both apps and can't find the culprit. If someone can figure it out, it would be much appreciated.
So you must not be using the stock Samsung messages app cause stock doesn't support facebook integration. Looks like you are using Go SMS?
