Hi everybody,
I just bought my first smartphone (Droid X2) yesterday and I seem to be encountering some issues regarding two apps and their notification sounds. The Facebook App for Android installs a notification sound file called facebook_ringtone_pop.m4a but it does not play any sound when I click on the actual file through the phone, nor if I select "Facebook Pop" within the menus. I plugged my phone into the computer and played the file there and I was able to hear the sound.
I have the same problem with the IMO instant messenger notification where there is not an actual file installed, yet nothing is played when I receive an incoming message.
For either apps, if I choose one of the pre-installed ringtones, they work. I have already tried factory resetting the phone (twice), replacing the file, nothing works.
Wondering if anybody knows how to fix this. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Friends,
I´m writting you to ask for help for a ancient problem I have with WM (since I had a Touch HD). I use a lot the calendar function and also the reminders.
But, I´m facing a terrible problem: the phone is not showing the notifications anymore. The curious part is that if I set a Task, the phone wakes up and rings. But if it´s an appointment, it doesn´t wake up nor even show any notification icons or sounds. I have lost some appointments due this.
I have set all settings to play sounds; hard reseted the phone and installed the programs I most use and tested to see if would play the sound and the notification. After one week of "stability" (I mean, the phone was giving me the notifications and I didn´t install any programs), it stopped again to show APPOINTMENTS reminders.
Has anyone faced this problem? Do you know a solution to this? I have an HD2 with stock T-mobile ROM.
Please, help me!
Moved to HD2 QA. As it is not related to Windows D&H.

You need to check your notification queue.
There are tools that clean it up. I think SKTools have this functionality.
Hello there from Greece...
I'm a happy owner of one LG P500 but there are 2 things that I can solve.
1) I install the HandcentSMS program and I turn of the notification from the native SMS app but in lockscreen.When I have an SMS which I read with Handcent,in lockscreen there is an SMS notification even if I have read this with Handcent.
I have to read this with the native sms app to disappear the lock screen notification.It's quite annoying all this....
How can I solve this?
2) I try to find an option to send songs via BT but I can't find something like this.Only with Astro File Manager I am able to send music.Is this the only solution?
Thank you in advance and a Happy New Year !!!
So:
1) This should be helpfull Remove lock screen message notification?
2) I also didn't find way how to do that by native app, but I haven't see problem in this (sending via some other app), because android doesn't have any file manager tool in android system - so it is quite normal.
OK, I have searched high and low for anyone having this issue, and have found a few posts that are similar to the problem I am experiencing but not quite the answer I am looking for.
I am a happy Galaxy Note owner, who did the upgrade to ICS through my carrier, which is Rogers, up here in Canada. I am having issues with my ringtones. It appears I cannot switch my ringtone for individual contacts, after installing the update. I am able to choose my ringtone in the contact menu with no problem, but for some reason, it reverts back to the main/default ringtone I have chosen as a general ringer. I am able to change out the ringtone for the phone itself, with either the preinstalled tones, or tones that I have installed manually, I just can't get them to work for individual contacts. Everything was working fine while I was on GB, but no dice on ICS. Anyone have any ideas? I've tried changing the tones to different folders and such, and the ringtones I want are showing up in the ringtone menu but will not take effect, even after a reboot. Any suggestins would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Shad.
stock Contact app?
A friend of mine had the same problem and we found they were using an alternative Contacts app that didn't work. Are you using the stock contact app to assign the ringtones?

Yes, I'm using the stock contacts app. I've tried everything, but I may have sorted it out. It looks like there is something wrong when u do it by the contact menu. I seem to have one working now, but haven't had any phone calls since. I had to manually add it to the media>audio> notifications folder. I hope it works, I should know tomorrow!
So am I the only person experiencing that most of my game apps arnt sending me push notifications such as CoC, Boom Beach, Fun Run 2, and etc. I'm not getting any notifications even though in settings, apps manager, all my apps have the check in the show notification box but I still don't receive any. In all such apps I have settings in the app to send me notifications yet still nothing comes through. I'm running on the 12b update. I'm just curious if anyone else is experiencing this weird thing or if someone could help me fix this
Greetings,
I received a Lenovo Z5 two weeks ago as a replacement to my old phone and so far it has been fantastically awesome... or most of it. I noticed that after a week factory resetting the phone for my personal needs and setting up, no notifications aside from phone calls and SMS pops up either on lock screen or on the notification tab while on home screen or using other apps. So far I have managed to get Facebook, Gmail, Outlook, Messangers and a few social networking apps (Zalo - Vietnamese version of Messanger/WeChat) working (partially) with their notifications. However, apps such as Discord, Reddit, Youtube, and a couple entertainment apps do not pop their notifications - they did pop up one time but after that nothing shows up even after couple of reboots.
I am currently using ZUI 10.5; all notifications settings are turned on. No apps' notification permissions were denied/blacklisted. Any help is appreciated.
Hello (Xin chao)
Are you a Vietnamese ?
I got the same issues
I tried this and now it works okay
There is an system app called Security, open it up and add apps to the white list (top-right small button, looks like a padlock)
Apps in this list will not be turn off and will receive notification normally.
Also, I found another solution, but haven't tried it yet
Maybe you can if the above solution doesn't work
Maybe you can try to install "Disable Doze" app below to see any effect:
