My Moto G4 Plus notification works momentarily when I get a notifiable item such as an email or text but then stops! My previous androids have always had some sort of notification that keeps working until cancelled by the user. Does anyone know how to enable continuous notification without having to root the device?
It seems a little silly that this feature isn't easily available.

Hi,
The email notification icon which should appears every time a new email arrived isn't consistent; I was wondering if other people have the same issue and if there was a fix for it.
By that I mean: the "email notification" icon shows up only 20% of the time upon newly received mail. So I constantly have to check the email tabs to see if something new has arrived. It's a bit frustrating...
Also: Is there a way to have the SMS blinking light and sound behavior for the email? Meaning: if someone send me a SMS; the phone emit a beep and a green blinking light reminds me of this new SMS. I would like the same behavior when I receive an email.
SMS is such a rip off; making you pay 20c a message or $5 for 500 messages; it's so ridiculously expensive... Especially since pushed email work really well!

Go again through the list of sounds and notifications, there you will find exactly what you are looking for.
Indeed; I didn't thought about that list... it's not too often than m$ provide something useful up front
Thanks you very much for the reply I did work
I still don't have a consistent mail icon in the notification bar; but at this point I don't really care; the blinking light + sound is way enough
Hi guys, hope you can help!
Basically the embarrassing situation has occurred a few times now when I'm showing my friends some features of the DHD a personal text comes in which was meant for my eyes only, however the first two lines of it are displayed in the notification bar when it arrives.
Surely there's a way to stop this from happening!?
Cheers!

If you're using HTC stock messaging app then there is no way to stop it. A solution would be to use messaging apps from the market like Handcent SMS and the likes. It will give you the ability to pop the notification but does not show the content.
I've just had a friend ask me this as well. Wanting just a notification sound and icon rather than disclosing the sender or the message body on the lock screen or in the notification bar.
I've got a DHD and don't mind if people see what i'm receiving, even to the degree that i've installed an app called ChompSMS which brings up a window on the homescreen displaying the full message.
I had a fiddle with the ChompSMS settings and it seems that you can increase the privacy settings to make it anonymise the notification, however as soon as you unlock the phone it will still show the full text in a window - I only fiddled a little bit, but couldn't find a way of disabling this without losing other features.
I uninstalled ChompSMS (for the purposes of this experiment) and had a look round at the generic (HTC) messaging settings and it seems like it's all or nothing, as soon as you turn off the 'received notification' option it greys out the options below it, meaning that you get no notification whatsoever when someone messages you (except for the green circle on the messaging widget - if you have this on your homepage).
I'm going to try installing Handcent (another popular messaging app) to see if I can make it do exactly what my friend wants done. I'll message back if I manage it.

When I get app notifications for things like text messages or emails, entering the app directly and opening the corresponding message does not dismiss the notifications from the notification center. Is this normal behavior? I thought Lollipop did, but I could be mistaken. I either have to swipe the notification off, or click it to open the app to dismiss it.
I noticed the same, found it irritating and I got way to many notifications from all sorts of stuff, App's and OS. Eventually I disabled all notifications. The phone already makes a sound so i don't need any visuals.
I am getting the same issue, any fix/ workaround to get rid of the notifications?
In my case this seems to depend on the application. Whatsapp does this annoying thing, while Gmail and Inbox do not. I think that most apps are not yet updated properly for Marshmallow support.
Hi All,
Long time Android user here with a galaxy s7 edge and loving it but one thing has been endlessly bothering me. I haven't been able to figure out how to separate text message notifications on the lock screen and in the notification panel into individual notifications for each message.
When I get one message, it's perfect. It shows the sender and a preview of the content, but if I get any more messages from the same sender, it switches to '2 new messages'. It's annoying because I have to unlock my phone anytime I get more than one message to see the content. I wish it would show the preview content of each message and if there were many messages then i could scroll through them on the lock screen as it works on an iPhone.
I use easy screen turn on (awesome feature btw) so it's very convenient when I can wave my hand over my device to wake it and just glance at my lockscreen to see my messages.
I've googled this issue for a while and didn't run across a solution. Some suggested I pull down the notification which expands it but that only happens if two separate people have texted me then it shows a preview of the latest message from each person..
Any suggestions? Is this an issue for anyone else? I was surprised by how few threads there were about this issue. Perhaps i just suck at google..
Whats up everyone?
I got my 6T the first day. Today was the first time I played with it nicely.
Maybe I am getting confused or have lost my way around Pie, but I am not able to get notifications for a particular app the way that I want.
Example: For Twitter (because I receive a lot of notifications), I want the notification to show up on my lock screen as well in the notification dropdown (just like all other notifications), but I do not want my phone vibrating or making a sound when I receive one. Is it possible? ONLY for twitter. All other apps should function normally.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
When the app in question has a notification, long press it, choose more settings. There are options there to allow or disallow certain events.
