Messenger pop ups - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

When I switch from Samsung messenger to Google messenger my texts will no longer pop up on lock screen and don't get the blue light around the edge. All settings are identical for notifications between the 2 apps. . It did the exact same thing on my s7. Any ideas??

You can try leaving yourself a voicemail and then delete it. Or call your carrier to reset your voicemail. I seem to also remember a setting to clear notification icon back in the day...gl

download Light Flow Lite or the payed version (which I use)
There you can customize the colors of your led notifications.
Also if you use its widget when you click on the widget it will reset all the notifications that are still running...
Best of luck

[Q] Icon Notifications not showing

The notifications on my note 3 don't show. They show in the task bar but not on the icon itself. For example FaceBook doesn't show notifications on the icon for when you have missed alerts nor does Words with Friends show it's your turn. This worked on the S3. Is it a limitation to the phone or does something need to be configured? I noticed this with a lot of applications that have push messages.
This happen with all apps or only Facebook?
And what firmware you are using? Stock one?
Can you show some screenshots?
Same problem here, but as far as I have noticed, it only happens to the e-mail (default application). Any suggestions?
Check the app's settings.

Are you using Touchwiz or a third party launcher?

It's not only for facebook messenger. All the apps same, if you are on the screen in phone, you can't get notification from watch.
You get notifications that are displayed on the status bar/android notifications.
If your chat heads are open, you don't get a new notification on the status bar, but only counter on the chat head... So no notification on the watch...
Try to see into settings of Facebook messenger, may be you can enable notifications

[Q] Notifications don't work with S View

I have recently started using Chomp SMS because I hate the default s5 messaging app, but I have stopped receiving text push notifications on my s view screen. If I switch back to Messaging, they come back. Does this feature really only work on their own apps or is there a work around for this?

You are correct, the sview cover app only supports the default messenger.

Note 4 Facebook notifications open new app window

For a while now (maybe a year?), when I click a Facebook notification in my Samsung Galaxy Note 4's swipe-down notification bar, it opens a new Facebook app window rather than opening in the app instance that's already running. I've grown accustomed to simply dismissing the notifications, then switching to the Facebook app and clicking the in-app notification instead. Does anyone else have this problem, and is anyone aware of a possible fix?
My carrier is AT&T. Phone is not rooted. I even reset it to factory defaults recently, and the Facebook issue remains.
