[Whatsapp] Notifications only show the lastly received message - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everybody,
I guess it has sth. to do with moving to android 7.0 recently (but I'm not entirely sure it has occured on every tested rom since then); my whatsapp notification from lockscreen or drawn down status bar just shows the last received message from a contact, instead of summarizing them to, for example, "2 new messages".
And when drawing down the whatsapp line in notifications, these new messages would have been shown in particular; in my case, nothing happens.
I think you all get the point.
Gmail or other apps still function in the used manner.
This is quite annoying since you read sth completely out of context from someone, until you open the whatsapp chat just to find out he wrote you a novel before.
Thanks.

rly? could someone at least confirm the issue or whatever..
much appreciated!

WhatsApp needs to update to be fully compatible with Nougat, so is a WhatsApp issue not Nougat

Yes it's a known problem. Whatsapp needs to update this.
If you google whatsapp nougat you will find some more information about this problem.

Happening here too, Nougat has been out for quite a while now, this still happens even with WhatsApp Beta.

Notifications problems

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.

Whatsapp notifications not expanding

So, whenever i get more than one message from the same person on whatsapp i can just see the last message. I tried expanding that notification bubble but it doesnt.. so if I have to read all the messages I will have to open the app.
Is anybody else facing the same issues with Whatsapp? I checked with other messaging apps (FB messenger, Hike, Text messages); all have expanding notifications bubble displaying all messages after I expand the bubble except Whatsapp.
I am not sure if this is a Nougat thing or just V20.
Any way to change this?
My notifications are not showing at all on Whatsapp. I have to open it and go to the person or group and they suddenly pop up.
I've turned on notifications from the settings on the phone and in the app itself, still nothing.
Whatsapp say its the phone the phone people say it whatsapp......the usual customer no-service. It's obviously an issue.
I hate change, nothing ever works the same, never mind better.

Oreo update - not showing notifications

Hi all
I have searched everywhere and I can't find anybody else with this issue... I surely can't be the only one...?
Since updating my Nexus 6P to Oreo I appear to have some apps not show a notification icon or anything in my notification drop down menu. My phone will vibrate as normal but my screen will not show any notifications...
This happens for Outlook (I will receive a normal notification and email preview on my Huawei watch running 2.0 but nothing at all on phone apart from its vibration), FotMob (a goal alert service if anyone is unfamiliar with it) and even push notifications on Facebook (to name a few). WhatsApp and text messages, for example, are working as normal.
I have reset all my notification and permissions settings TNA and even uninstalled and reinstalled the troublesome apps. Same result
Is this just apps not being fully supported for 8.0 or is this a different issue?
I really don't want to resort to a factory reset...
Thanks in advance
The most important thing i hate about Oreo .. is that Power notification control is missing the is so important for me!!

How were the apps installed? If you restored them through Titanium Backup, the device id for GCM push notifications will be wrong.
Uninstall, clear cache, then install the app from the play store.
Hi krs360
The apps were installed through play store. I am running fully stock, unrooted Android 8.0
Thanks
I have the same problem. Gmail is set to blink the notification light - but it doesn't! Argh!

There is something sketchy about oreo notification. Sometimes the LED simply doesn't blink at all , sometimes it simply blink very very slow.
Aquamail works fine
Gmail also doesn't pop up with a notification when the screen is off. But aqua mail does, and the notification light also works.
I think I found the answer to this. Basically it's a change in the SDK that requires the app author to fix. (I know, I just discovered the same problem in apps I wrote.)
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43093260/notification-not-showing-in-android-8-oreo
Nothing quite so heartbreaking than to find a singular post/thread on the internet from someone having the same issue as you, only to discover that no solution has been posted and that it's old.
For what it's worth, having the same exact issue. Phone updated OTA a few weeks ago, and at first I was having the battery drain issue but that seemed to get fixed during the patch update, but now I've noticed that Outlook Calendar reminders, as well as Facebook Messenger App Notifications (new messages) no longer make a sound and/or show up as a notification on my phone. This is extremely annoying/difficult especially with Outlook as I have a really terrible time keeping things straight or organized, so I rely pretty heavily on the calendar reminders I set in it for daily/weekly/monthly things.
I could be wrong but I think it's related to notification lights.I wasn't getting anything until I turned it on and suddenly I was.
Hi,
Has anyone come across the solution for this issue? I have had it for over a month now and I really don't understand what the issue could be.
same issue with OREO (ZUK Z2 PRO)
also cannot edit permissions because it doesn't handle a device with plenty apps installed (+800) it hangs and crash / go back to main menu without letting you edit anything in options

Android O and gmail notifications

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...

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!
