Hey,
I recently updated my Mate 8 to Android 7.
Ever since, I have been receiving Birthday notifications from the Contacts app. These notifications are 1 week early (fine), but I do not see any settings for a way to change or disable these notifications.
I'm hesitant to disable notifications for the Contacts app (through system > app settings), as I'm not sure what effect this will have on missed call notifications, etc.
Just wondering if anyone else has had a similar issue, and if anyone knows a solution.
Thanks for any help.
An interesting question!
But I think you should not disable notifications for the Contacts app while you may disable notification for the Calendar app if you don't want to get birthday notification.
As we know, in fact, birthday notification is a Calendar event. You may go to Calendar app, and view the date for birthday of some your contact. There should be an event for the birthday. Is there an event?
Hi James,
Thanks a lot for the reply. I thought it was interesting that the notification came from the Contacts app as well.
I believe the notification is only for contacts that I have assigned birthdays to.
I use DigiCal, and the notification was not from DigiCal. I have now disabled the Calendar app, so I'll see tomorrow if I still get the unusual notifications.
Thanks again.
Hi. Any success with this? I'm having the same issue. Would like to change the notifications to the day of the birthday, but can't find where to do this.
Same Issue

Strangest thing happened today.... all reminders failed to sound on my HD2. The items I set on the calendar and has reminders turned on - the HD2 failed to sound the reminder - there's not even a message bubble on the top bar to indicate I missed a reminder. It's as if I never set a reminder. This caused me to miss meetings today.
I have not installed anything or edited the registry yesterday and it was working fine till then.
Items I checked -
1. System clock - it's correct
2. the calendar item - it's today.
3. settings\sounds & notifications\sounds\"Enable sounds for"
Events checked
Programs checked
Notifications checked
4. settings\sounds & notifications\notifications\reminders\
Play sound checked
display message on screen checked
What could be the problem?
missed calendar reminders
Ive had the same problem
It was working fine just until yesterday and all of a sudden the reminders just stopped.
Any solutions out there would be very much Appreciated .
reminder alert
My reminders seem to be working again
The only thing I did in between it not working and when it started working was to sync the phone with my calander on my computer
Seems ok for now
Hello,
I've the same problem.
My reminders don't work... Even if I create an event now, that should remind me in 30 minutes, nothing happens.
Settings are similar to what you described in your first post.
So, does anybody have a solution? How did you solve it?
THANKS!
Hey Everyone!
I'm a long time stalker/researcher of this forum and have usually found my answers on here to the problems I am experiencing. Thanks to all those that contribute to this wonderful resource.
About a week ago I noticed that my phone kept reminding me that I had a calendar event in the notification area. I use google calendar but still use s-planner for the notification portion. Once I have a calendar event in the notification area... my calendar sound notifies me every 1 minute until I snooze it or dismiss it. Has anyone ever heard of this? Previous to a week ago, I would get one notification and then it would sit quiet in the notification area.
I really enjoy the notification/snooze/dismiss area of splanner and it doesn't happen if I turn the notifications off in s-planner and use the google calendar ones.
Thanks in advance!
Bump.
Hello guys,
I have got a weird problem. Everytime I post photo or I am tagged in the photo my LG G2 doesn't send me a notification and it also doesn't pop up on the notification bar. It also doesn't display on the facebook icon as an unread notification.
Also the same thing happens when someone add something new into the group.
Does someone face a same problem? Any advice how to solve it?
Thanks
Hello,
I used Disa for Facebook and WhatsApp. I found that after adding text messages plugin began to display notifications from WathsApp and Facebook in the Alway On. Maybe it helps someone

Samsung, should have thought about this before offering always on display. I mean, we check for what is sent and if I have to always touch my device for every notification then, what is the purpose? A clock?
Disa wants me to remove the Whatsapp app! Of cause I am not willing to do that, for It might remove the conversations.
So, I could not test it.
It will show AOD notifications only if also used for SMS?
Yes.
What is the extent of the notification ? Only a symbol or some text?

You can backup all your convo's in whatsapp also so its a easy restore if you want to install it again.
thanx! it really works! whatsapp + sms = notification on AOD!
screenshot please
sorry, it doesn't work. I configured facebook and whats up, but when I received new messages nothing had shown on AOD
Hello,
i am using the Galaxy S8 with android 7.0
On the lock-screen i receive messages from apps like gmail when there is a new email.
When i read the new email on another device (like laptop or tablet), the lock-screen notification will not be updated --> the new email-icon still there.
Can i change a setting or something which will update the lock-screen when these notifications are read on another device?
Thx
Anybody?
I have a similar issue, the notifications will clear but with a delay of several minutes. Facebook notifications won't clear at all from the facebook app.
