I got the new Google Voice update on my Droid X (stock/rooted 2.3) and am having problem with notifications.
I have vibrate, ringtone, light notification bar icon all on in the settings.
Frequently, when I get a text, I get the vibrate and the notification light blinks once. I don't get my notification ringtone and there's no notification icon. Obviously, that's a big problem. If I don't hear the initial vibrate, I have no way to know I have a text unless I open up the app.
I went back to the previous Google Voice version and I don't have this issue.
Anyone else having similar issues?

Here you go.
Yeah the update is terrible.
I didn't get any notifications whatsoever.
It wouldn't even update unless I forced it to
I tried to down grade Google Voice but I still had issues getting text messages. I uninstalled Googe Voice and I still didn't get my text messages. I installed an app called Gingerbread Ghostly SMS and now I get my messages.

Hey guys,
I have been using the Sprint/GV integration for a while now, and things have been great. Text has been arriving instantly on my computer, where I do most of my text communication. Now I have noticed that ever since Google updated to 0.4.2.36, my texts are delayed to GV's site and GVNotifier. If I open up the text on my phone, it pops up on my computer a few seconds later. If I leave the text unopened, it can sit for hours, or sometimes I'll get another new text 10-20 minutes later, and they will all spill out on my PC.
I believe it has something to do with some new settings and sync methods on the new app. Previously, you had the option of syncing your inbox, and it would even give you a warning about duplicate notifications. Now, that is gone. You simply select, GV-only, or both. Before, I had to disable GV notifcations, (including voicemail.) Now with this change, and sync settings, it's almost as if GV isn't getting my text until my phone syncs it with my GV account. Previously this tended to happen on the back-end, regardless if my phone was online or not. In fact, when I have my phone turned off, texts come through GV/GVNotifier just fine... Not sure what can cause the GV app to do this. I am considering removing it completely, but I like being able to search through my texts.
Has anyone else noticed issues since the new GV app was released?

I've experienced something similar...Sometimes, I will get a text on GV(site&app) but it will never come to my phone, and people have gotten angry at me for not replying, but it's not until I check the app or site that I notice I got a text message. This only started happening with the recent update to the GV app.
Another thing that bothers me is the inability to mark all as read from the site/app. Gmail does it..WTF Google? I have over 600 supposedly unread messages sitting on GV that I can't mark all as read. I have to manually go and mark a page at a time (which is around 10) until they're all marked, fail.

I have to go in daily and mark texts as read... Luckily I spend a lot of time on the website, but it is still annoying.
I too have the same issue with some texts only going to GV.... it's a bit more rare than the other problems, but it has happened about 5 times in the last few weeks. I find myself using the larger GV widget now, and checking it regularly.
BTW they just redesigned the site so you can select all and mark them read. I just do a label:unread then check 'em all.
So I just restored GV 0.4.2.32 on my Evo 3D, and all of the sudden my texts are arriving on my computer instantly, and things seem overall more consistent. I can't say for sure this is the fix, but it seems promising. I wish I had a later version, since this is from June.
Does anyone have the previous version we can reinstall? Mine is doing the same thing.. Im on the EVO4G.
Someone sent me a text at 8:05 PM last night.. I never received it.. HOWEVER, this morning I received a REGULAR TEXT MESSAGE (not google voice but regular phone text).. as soon as that one came through, so did the google voice text. This same thing has been happening every day for the past month. If I leave the APP OPEN with the phone on, it seems to work, but if not, my google voice texts and notifications seem to only come in when I get a regular text message... I can hear he regular text message notification sound and then right after I hear the google voice notification sound...
I assume if we go back to the previous version it will work again?
Thanks...

I used TITANIUM BACKUP and set the app to be disconnected from the APP STORE so it doesnt check for updates and the app store basically doesnt know it was installed from there.
Anyone else having problems receiving voicemail and text notifications from Google Voice? I use my Gvoice number as my main number I give to everyone, and now I am not receiving any notifications of new Voicemails or Texts through the app. If I go into the app manually refresh they show up. I've gone into accounts, and don't see an option for Google voice. This is something I have to have working for my job, and if I can't find a solution quickly I'm going to have to switch back to the Nexus until the issue can get resolved. I'm kinda bent over a barrel right now... Any ideas?
I apologize if this has been discussed before, I did a quick search but couldn't find any other related threads..

Hi,
I'm on a international i9300 with MS Team HD 12.1 rom, so using Android 4.2.2. Also use GO SMS
My issue is that sometimes when I receive a text, I get the notification as usual but the notification does not appear on the notification bar, and the text is not added to any conversation. When I launch my sms app, go sms, sometimes it does then get "processed" as usual so I receive the text. However sometimes the text is lost which is nuisance obviously.
I believe on the stock rom I was having no issues with a similar combination of apps (more to follow on this) but have done with both HD 12.0 and 12.1
I initially though it was an issue with the lightflow app, which received the notification and was holding it in some way, however I have now disabled that and believe the issue is still present. Therefore I now believe it is either the go sms app itself, or possibly a UCCW widget I have which shows the number of unread sms messages that could be "holding" the message. I'm not really able to troubleshoot this fully as I don't have another phone to text myself.
If anybody is familiar with lightflow's debugging logs I'd be willing to send them, and just to note, the debugger widget does show that the SMS notification is on, even when the text has not been "processed". My led will stop blinking once any conversation has been loaded on go sms.
Is anyone able to shed my some light on this?
Cheers

if you have too many messages, sometimes this might happen. if that is not true, try re-flashing the rom by fully wiping before and after the installation. backup if you'd like to.

Well I had around 9K messages, and a few thousand were from a mistake when backing up leading to duplicates, so that would tie-in with the timing of changing roms, so hopefully that is the issue and I'll start clean and see what happens!
Many thanks
i have an htc one m7. everything seems to work fine with watch and phone, i'm using google hangouts for my texts. problem is none of them are showing up on the watch. well one did tonite, but thats been it. i was running skyvi so messages would show up on phone screen, and the g watch messages worked then, only problem was that on the watch when the messages showed up thru skyvi on the watch, when it said "tap here to reply" nothing would happen. so i deleted skyvi and like i said now i get nothing. i reset the watch, re-paired it. and nothing worked. any ideas? also anyone else finding the g watch is a tremendous drain on the phone battery. i barely use it during the day and by 1 or 2 i'm down to 55% power on the phone.
Make sure to set notifications in Hangouts to vibrate.
Thanks Devs, from my LG G2

Shouldn't need to...I don't have mine set to vibrate and I get all my Hangouts notifications
I have also noticed a large drain on my phone battery, much more than with my Pebble. But there is nothing abnormal in the battery stats, at all. No strange wakelocks, nothing.
HELP! hangouts sms problems

i have the factory version of hangouts on my htc one m7 if i send a text to myself. i get it on the phone, but nothing on the watch. if i switch text apps to something like textra and turn on augmented smartwatch pro, the texts come thru on the watch, but with the little icon of augmented smartwatch pro. BUT i cant voice reply to any sms since i am not using hangouts. any ideas how to fix hangouts so the texts come thru on the watch? ive called LG and no luck. and htc just tells me i cant delete hangouts from the phone, if i try, it always replaces it with the factory version.

Are you updating Hangouts to the most recent version? I wouldn't expect the factory version to do anything... Wear didn't exist back then. Also, when you're sending yourself a text... Be sure you either turn off the phone display or exit out of Hangouts before the text is received. Otherwise the watch won't alert you to something that's right in front of your face anyway.

thanks to someone here who mentioned GoSMS. its configured for android wear and lets you send voice replies like google hangouts. so that solved the problem. who needs hangouts anyway
Did somebody noticed that the notifications sound twice e.g. Outlook, Twitter
I've searched along the Apps configuration, I don't found anything related.
Can somebody help?
Best regards.

Yes! It's annoying and I'm looking for a solution to!

Same here. Gmail is fine, but Outlook's notification sound stutters and it is very annoying. I went into google play and left a comment on it. This could be an app problem, an oreo problem, or a samsung problem (or all of the above).

Ah, that may be explainable. In Gmail's settings, there's an entry labeled "Inbox notifications." Make sure it's set to Notify once, and not Notify for every message. If you choose every message, and get two emails at once, it will try to notify you twice at virtually the same time. I don't know if Outlook or Twitter have the same option.
I have it set to notify once
Hi All,
Did anyone find a way to solve this issue?

I had this problem with my S7 Edge, although it began after I installed a modded ROM. Gmail is the only app that gave me problems though. I never found a solution. Hope someone figures it out.
Had the same issue, noticed some people noted that secret folder might be the issue if u had the app in there too. I just uninstalled secret folder and the problem dissapeared, at least in gmail If u don't use Secret folder just delete that app, save the space
Known issue with outlook app and Microsoft still is not able to fix it on Oreo

Have you tried going into notifications for the ap ? Gmail has options to turn off sound alerts. This should stop the double alert sound.
I'm using the Mood text app and have individual notification sounds for different people. It's been working fine for about a month. Yesterday, these dual alerts started where the sound associated with that person sounds but then so does my global notification sound. It's definitely two sounds for every one text and it's very annoying. I didn't change any settings in the app or globally. I'm pretty sure the only change I made to my phone in that general timeframe was installing Words with Friends. Texts are the only app I get notifications for, so I have no idea if other apps would have the same issue.
ETA: Today I learned my calendar notifications also double alert.
Look under accessibility and then notification reminder if it’s on turn it off that work for me
