Hi
I'm not getting any more reminders /alerts from apps such as aCalendar+, Omni notes.
As this happens with 2 apps, I do not believe this can be linked to the apps but it is more to do with some settings in the rom.
An I missing some settings, I reviewed all of them or so i think but maybe I missed one.
Could any one help please?
Thanks a lot

Hi People!
I simply don't know what to do. Somehow, my SMS sound disappeared -- too, there is no blinking, no vibration, nothing. can please somebody help me and somehow tell me where the error could be. it's set right in the alerts dialog, when i do a preview there, it works. but a new sms seems not to launch the alert. i remember fiddling around with the regkeys that manage the messaging accounts - maybe there is a naming error?
any help is greatly appreciated...
thanks a lot,
keep posting

Try to go through:
Start - Settings - Sounds and Notifications and then set the sound/vibartion as you like.
thanks, but ..
.. i already tried that, like a hundred times ..
the problem seems to lie elsewhere, as for example in the SMS account name.. fiddling around there may have caused this problem..
BUT i am planning doing a rom upgrade, so the problem will be gone, i think..
btw, is there a generic (HTC, german) ROM version that includes the internal gps-chip? my version: 1.16.407.2 and external rom: 1.16.407.101
Solution found on www.pocketpctweaks.com
as i pointed out the problem started after tweaking my messaging accounts. i now restored them (from a backup i intelligently did) and my sms sound is here again. the "ActiveSync" and "Hotmail" Accounts need to be there in order to have a sms notification ......
\\HKLM\\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Inbox\Svc\
this is _not_ what i call good programming ..
Hi all,
Some ROM's have a built in app called "Send Receive All" - which basically initiates a SEND/RECEIVE for all email accounts, when the app is run.
I was wondering if anyone has the cab file for that application they would like to share.
I know we can schedule an auto send/receive for all accounts - I don't want to do that as I don't have signal where I work, and I don't ant to waste battery life ..... I am also aware that there are apps that can schedule a send/receive. THESE ARE NOT WHAT I WANT.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Hello everyone.
So first of all I love this phone, the speed, the capabilities and especially the battery life.
What I don't feel is tied to just this phone is me not being able to get facebook notifications. I get a notification if I receive a new message but that's all.
This happened on my Note 3 as well. I have logged in on a friends phone into my facebook account and the same thing. I do not get any notifications. I even used the old method of trying to log in on a blackberry and that didn't work either.
What I have noticed in Facebook Account settings is that I can not check on "group post or comments" under my notification settings.
I'm thinking it's some old app that I used on another phone that stopped this from working but I could be wrong. I have tried to turn off app on the platform setting and still nothing works.
All I receive now is the number of notifications "number" on the Facebook app icon. Don't shoot me but I like getting the actual notifications from Facebook to my phone to alert me.
Does any of you kind souls have an idea to how I can fix this? Or something you have tried that got your notifications working again.
I know about some third party apps but that's not what i'm looking for if I can help it.
Any help or ideas help.
Thank you
Hi to everyone!
I have many friends that have Huawei smartphones and all them find out
the same problem with the notifications of some apks (Whatsapp and Telegram).
I have tried to set them like protected apk and look if others options
can block their notifications.
I have tried to install 3rd party apk to force notifications but it works
sometimes.
This problem came out when the smartphones have been upgraded
from Android 5.x to 6.0...from EMUI 3.x to EMUI 4.x
Someone said that the problem is the EMUI interface....with EMUI 5.x and Android 7
there is the same problem?
Have someone find out a definitive solution?
The Huawei have said something?
Have a nice day!
I had the same trouble with some application, the method that worked for me was this one : http://www.forbes.com/sites/bensin/...uawei-phone-heres-how-to-fix-it/#7c4eb3c78aa7
Also in the battery manafer, set the alim mode to "performance"
I have been same problem with push notifications and i find a way to resolve it. Applications with that issue must be locked in task manager.
If you can tweak that applications (gmail, whatapp, viber, skype, etc) to be "immune" at "close all" command of task manager
(with Lock symbol at upper right corner) that remain active when screen is off, even after restart the device.
With that applications locked, is not important if phone is in Smart/Performance mode or if an application is protected or not...
The trick is to lock a application in task manager. Somebody can try this solution and post result here...
From 2-3 weeks my device work properly regarding push notifications , tested from another phone any time, all notifications appear ok.
The real problem
Hi!
Thanks to everyone!
I have tried various solutions, but finding however an anomaly.
If arriving messages with Whatsapp or Telegram by direct contact all work,
if the message comes from a group the notifications will not come unless arrive a direct message.
Someone has encountered the same thing?
Have a nice day!
If its only group message, it may habe somethinf to do with the group being "Silent", check the group settings !

Thanks for your response.
I deliberately silenced some groups, others have notifications attived but them only comes when I open the application or if comes a message from a direct contact.
Phone battery manager. Put social chat apps that need to have real-time notifications as protected.
In settings, apps, advanced, ignore optimizations.
Whitelist the same apps.
That's all.
Hi!
Thanks for everyone.
The problem seems to be almost gone. On two days of testing only twice notifications groups were arrived late or partially.
I hope it is a definite solution and not an occasional event.
Have a nice day.
I have this problem with Twitter and Gmail;
As Twitter is protected and on the ignore optimization list but gmail is no where to be found in both menus;
Both apps are allowed to use what ever network (Data or WiFi)
I've been reading a lot about this one, but luckily never experienced it myself. Every notification arrives on time.

I've tried everything mentioned but the only thing that worked for me was to use a VPN app on mobile data then I get all notifications. Never missed any after using VPN try it. I use Opera Max but there are many others as well.
I've recently upgraded to Oreo and just noticed that there are no more custom label sound/vibration settings for Gmail?!
Seems gmail is using the new concept that Oreo has, central app notification management which has only one setting per application.
Anyhow, i was extremely dependent on the different notification sound per label/priority inbox so this killed my productivity...
Anyone knows more about this??
edit: guess this is more of a general issue, not just for sgs8, so please delete this topic.
Only problem here since Oreo update is the badge numbers of Gmail notifications. If I have 2 New emails, the badge number is for example 16...

the badge indicates emails to be read and not just the new ones

It's a gmail label alert problem in the Android 9 OS. (I found this out through hours on the phone with, first T-Mobile, and then Samsung, who finally concluded it was a problem with GOOGLE.) My phone was one of the last to get the update (April 2018), but this seems to have been a problem in the forums since January 2017. I, also rely on my google inbox LABELS each having different alert notification sounds to keep me working efficiently! i.e. Important Clients, Important Suppliers, Urgent/Waiting for Response, Important Personal. Each one of these gmail labels had its own ringtone assigned. But after this Android update, there is only ONE priority setting and ONE ringtone. I used to think that Android/Google/Samsung were the cutting edge in phones but, THIS IS A HUGE STEP BACKWARDS!
Someone recommended the light flow app, but it doesn't seem to work on my phone, (or it is just too complicated for me to set it up correctly.) I either need to find a simple fix/workaround or downgrade to the Android 7 OS, because Google obviously is not going to fix it anytime soon. And I can't work without it. If anyone knows of a good, easy to use, email alert app that works with gmail labels (sometimes called subfolders). please post!
