Has anyone else has experienced this? Seemingly out of nowhere my green notification LED will start blinking. Thinking I have an email/text/missed call I hit the power button only to find no notifications whatsoever. I check my inboxes to make sure nothing new was in there and find nothing. No alarms, no new texts, no emails, no missed calls, nada. It just continues to blink until I reboot the phone. Its not a huge issue but its happened about 5 times in the past week, just wondering if i'm the only one.
mine doesn't do it to that extent, but sometimes if I have just cleared a notification or something it will blink until I put it to sleep and wake it back up.
Huh. Haven't noticed that problem. For what it's worth I use Google Voice so don't use the MMS app and have removed the Voice Mail.
maybe its a hey play with me light? lol ive experienced it but in about 2hr increments of standby

It happens to me when I check a text through the app (handcent) but I don't go to the notification bar at all, it clears because I open it in handcent but it continues to blink until I pull the notification bar down.

Speaking of the Notification bar, does anyone else have an issue of selecting a notification and it takes you to the correct app, but it doesn't close the notification bar?
yeah, i've had that, where the notification bar will stay down after clicking an app. i just roll it back up and the app i selected is no open in the background, so its all good.
and as far as the notification light goes, i wish there was a way to also tap into that orange/red LED as a notification light. I downloaded an app that can control the blinking light and for various things, and if the phone supports it, multiple colors (dunno what phones have a multicolor LED there...) but seems it can only tap into the green LED. Which sucks, cause i'd love to have missed called and voice mails linked to the red light while everything else linked to the green light. maybe once its rooted and custom roms come out that'll be an option.
I've experienced this with Handcent SMS on the rare occasion. There's a certain combo of viewing messages that seem to cause this.
Since you can view messages 3 ways, reply 2 ways, not sure which combo causes it.
To clear it tho, I've always just opened handcent fully and opened up the last message received. That's worked every time for me.
I made the switch to GO SMS. It's a thing of beauty.

I am a bit of a text addict so I notice this happening frequently. Doesn't really bother me but I dont really understand why it happens some times but not others. It happens with GO SMS and stock messaging app for me.

don't get your hopes up. I upgraded from a Hero and it used what seems to be an identical light, it was hardwired to only use green and red, so no matter what software you use it wouldn't matter. Not to say something isn't different with this one, but just be prepared to have your bubble popped as I did the first time I saw those options in cyanogenmod...
This is confusing, using either the stock app or a different messaging app if the notification sound is different than the default. Such as the default notification sound is Whisper but I set in the SMS app to be Good News. If the screen is off it plays Whisper THEN Good news back to back. But if the screen is on it doesn't do that.. I rebooted and it stopped but then came back. wtf
This only seems to happen if the screen is OFF if the screen is ON it doesn't happen..
Edit: I think i found the issue. Device -> Accessibility -> Notification Reminders - Had this on but only to alert after 10min but it seems to be bugged and causes two alerts at the same time.
hello guys,
got nexus 4 with 4.4.1 stock rom+kernel.
im experiencing annoying bug with expanding notification: when unlocking the phone and then expanding the notification in the notification bar for the first time after the unlock, it goes back automatically to normal notification after few seconds.
for example, when i receive email, i unlock the phone, draw down the notification window and expand the gmail notification for additional options (such as delete), but few seconds later it goes back to normal notification size (automatically), if i expand it for the second time it stays expanded.
it really annoys me because if i wanna delete the email and i try to press the delete its gone and i accidentally press another notification which opens another application.
Hope i was clear.
is there a solution for it?
I have had the Nexus 6P for about 1.5 months now. I am running Pure Nexus, and I use LightFlow to control notifications.
I've noticed strange notification behavior with this phone in general. Here they are listed.
1. On a clean reboot, notifications will work normally...for about a day or so. After some time (I don't know exactly when or how), notifications randomly stop. They only come through after turning the screen on or entering the respective app, such as a calendar app. An example is as follows: I noticed that I didn't get calendar notifications for 2 events; as soon as I opened the calendar app, they fired. This behavior happens on all my Nexus devices: a Nexus 5X, 6P and 9.
2. The notification LED does not work in call. In order to make it work, you have to enter the notification light settings and turn on the option to "Enable notification light when screen is on".
3. If music is playing or if you are doing something like Google Navigation, the notification sound will not work, but the vibration/notification LED will. Once exiting that app, it will work again. What is strange is that it "sounds" like the notification sound should play, because the music or Google Navigation will duck out...but no notification sound comes through.
Has anyone else seen this kind of behavior? Any thoughts on how to fix?
I feel like I am the only one out there with this issue, but it has happened with a whole slew of SMS apps, and on several different Rom's including stock. What happens is when I get a text message, and i respond to it in the quickly reply or heads up notification the notification does not clear unless I pull back down and either swipe it away or just pull down on the notification shade and put it back up.. I'm sure of this could be the App but not all of it..
Anyone else out there experiencing it? Or is it just some feature that is new and i hate.. ?
Currently I'm on OctOS 7.0 using Genie SMS app. But this has happened on just about every SMS app and several other roms.
FWIW problem resolved in 7.1 at-least on the pixel build with uberstock
