[Q] No caller id when receiving calls - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

I downloaded an app called Notifications Off and it caused all kinds of problems before I uninstalled it not the least of which is that now when I get a call, I get don't get caller ID information nor do I get the option to answer. I have to manually go to the phone app to answer the incoming call. I'm at a loss on how to reinstate this feature.

Go into app manager/all apps and scroll down to phone and make sure notifications are checked.

It is unchecked, but it won't let me place a check mark in it. It appears to be grayed out.

Try a reboot and see if it will let you check it. If not, you may need to go through all the system apps

Thanks for the help. Rebooting didn't help so I reinstalled the app and engaged all system notifications I thought would apply, and it still didn't work. So I turned all notifications on and it started working properly. I guess I'll just have to turn off notifications off that bother me as they occur.

[Q] Not getting push notifications for Twitter

Is it just me or is the latest Twitter version (3.0.0) lack push notifications? It used to be present in the older versions but the new version sort of removed it. Is there anyone else here able to get push notifications and can someone guide me to getting it?
working fine for me
you sure youve ticked the box wanting notifications? if you have id either clear data or uninstall and reinstall
No problems here. As suggested above, try uninstall+install again... or log in/out.

Did that before but shall try it again. Is it under menu -> settings -> account name -> tick sync data? But below it it has an option for sync intervals, meaning Twitter refreshes at fixed intervals instead of having instant push notifications. Is there anything I'm missing?

I don't have my phone in front of me, so I may be wrong, but if you disable the refresh intervals, it should switch to push, unless you completely disable notifications.

There is no way to disable refresh intervals. It has options ranging from 5minutes to 4hours but no way to disable unless you disable notifications completely. And even though I've set 1hour refresh interval I did not receive notifications for a mention from a friend today even though the mention happened 4 hours before I woke up and technically with a 1hour refresh interval I should have received a notification.
Did you ever figure out this issue? I did a reinstall and I still am stuck with set intervals.

[Q] Wi-Fi connected to... Notification Card help

Hey everyone. I just got an LG G Watch and I've liked it so far, but one thing annoys me a bit. I get a card about every 15 minutes or so telling me which Wi-Fi network my phone is connected to. I've tried muting things like Android System, but it isn't working. Does anyone have any idea what else I can try to mute? Thanks.
I'm using a stock Moto X running the latest firmware from Verizon.

Do you get the notification on the phone as well? The watch should only show the notifications that you also see on the phone. Next time the notification comes up, don't swipe it away. Long press it, select app info and then disable the notification.

I figured it out with your help. While I couldn't disable the notification from App Info, going into Settings -> Wi-Fi -> Advanced -> uncheck Wi-Fi notifications did the trick. I can't believe I didn't think to look there sooner. Thanks!

Recurring S-Health notifications?

I regularly get a specific S-Health notification on my Gear S, prompting me to unlock and setup an S-Health profile. This usually happens when I walk out of range of my Note 4 or when I walk back into range (connected via bluetooth). When it pops up, I can dismiss it until the next time it pops up, or I can instead open it which simply brings up the S-Health application on my phone. I have already setup my S-Health profile so I'm not sure why I repeatedly get this particular notification...It's getting annoying! Any idea what this is all about, or how I can disable it (without disabling all S-Health notifications through the application manager)?

Thanks for replying... Yes i did that but it's those random notifications that are bugging me! I would rather not have these things pop up every time I walk out of (or back into) my phone's bluetooth range. Besides, the notifications seem useless to begin with since I already setup my S-Health profile... Surprised no one else is bothered by this or knows what it's about/how to disable it.

rooted GearS? no, i dont think there was a root available for me in Canada. My note2 was rooted but some how i lost it. havent bothered rooting again yet. but to get rid of S-health, i will
wow, i havent checked the development page in a while. didnt realize your guide for rooting all firmwares and additional scripts. will try this out tonight.
For now I ended up just disabling S-Health notifications in Gear Manager rather than rooting and using the S Killer. Figured I might want those notifications over the summer for running, etc so didn't want to kill S Health completely. Seems to have solved the issue for me so far. Thanks everyone!

Lockscreen notifications don't wake up the device

Hey everyone
I got my Honor 7 on Thursday and it's working like a charme.
Except, the notifications bug me a bit...
I had the Xiaomi Mi4 before and it went like this:
Phone is locked and display is off
I get a message / notification (e.g. Twitter)
Phone vibrated
Phone activated screen
Now, on the Honor 7 it's like this:
Phone is locked and display is off
I get a message / notification (e.g. Twitter)
Phone vibrates ONLY THE FIRST TIME I GET A NOTIFICATION
Screen stays off
Any way to fix that somehow?
I can't root the phone yet, since I have to use the god damn Huawei Cloud for 14 days...

Hi,
I think you need to activate an option on lock screen and pass-key to activate the screen when receiving notifications.
By the way, do you see any issue while using whatsapp? When my phone is locked I don't receive any notification at all... and to get them I need to start the app.

I have followed that tutorial of yours, but I then received that error message on the Huawei website.
I don't have it available right now, but I can try to unlock it again, and possibly share a screenshot of the error message

I have the same issue with a new G8, even with this option enabled, protecting the app in Notification Center and lock it in memory to never close, WhatsApp notifications stop working in some hours.
The only workaround for me is rebooting the device.

When you want to clear all the apps (square button), you just pick one and pull it down so it will be locked to memory.

Locking in the memory works for me because the app is running in the background but thats not the point. it used to work normally without locking it aswell :/

I have found that the notifications (at least on WhatsApp) stop when you get more than 10 in a row, then the notifications in the status bar not longer responds and that's the exact point when you don't receive more notifications.
I made a test yesterday, I charged my phone before night and then I restarted and I got all the notifications. I disabled WiFi and data (to see if the device goes to sleep mode) and when I woke up, I activated WiFi and I had like 20 messages in WhatsApp, then I tried to click the notification bar to see the messages, but was unresponsive and from that time I had to restart the phone again in order to receive notifications.

My issue seems a bit different to yours. I get notifications usually but for whatsapp sometimes its running in the background and sometimes its not even though its a protected app and it should be running in the background even if i clear it in recent apps and lock my phone

I don't think is different, is the same problem, WhatsApp not showing notifications. And is not showing notifications because at some point, it fails to deliver them because some buggy stuff with the permission manager.

Yes, is part of my protected apps and I have enabled all the notifications for it.
There is something wrong with the software and Emui and I hope Huawei fix it soon.

Amazfit Pace working only with phone calls , no notifications for messages

Hello ,
I have already read similar threads for this problem but still cannot fix my problem .
Only calls notifications works, it does not show me notifications from facebook , gmail, viber etc , I've already tried unpairing and pairing again with the phone, factory reset and uninstalling and reinstalling the amazfit watch app on the phone but nothing changed.
I checked the app blacklist and everything is enabled , this issue starts today , the previous weeks the watch works fine
Anyone can help me please?
restarted phone?

Obviously I did restart my phone plenty of times
UPDATE:
After many restarts of my phone, 3-4 factory resets, and unistall - reinstall the amazfit app at least 2 times. It seems that the watch works fine again !
I dont know the problem is fixed (hopefully wont happen again) but just restarting your phone may fix the problem (may not work after the first restart, keep restarting your phone)
I also contacted amazfit to inform them , and they told me the same things
I am posting their answer:
If you can see them from the notification bar but can't see them through your watch, please check the following steps to troubleshoot your issue.
1) Check if you enabled the "silent mode" on the watch. If you enabled silent mode, you can't receive any notifications at all.
2) Enable the notification in the app
On the home screen of the Amazfit Watch app, select Notification Settings.
Tap the toggle switch to enable or disable push notification on your watch.
To enable or disable specific notifications, select App blacklist settings.
If you still can't receive the notification, please try the following:
Android
1: Go to settings --> manage apps' battery usage --> choose apps. From there, pick all the apps you want to receive push notifications and select "No restrictions."
2: Go to settings --> permissions --> autostart. From there, pick the apps you want to receive notifications, and toggle the switch to turn it on.
3: Lock the app in the "recent apps"/ "app overview" plane. Do so by first opening the apps, then press the "recent apps/overview button" . From there, find the app you want to receive notifications, pull down on it to "lock it", so it never gets cleared.
Hopefully this might help someone in the future
I think we need an update. Nothing of all them works for me.
I also have the same problem, watch only alerts me of the incoming call, no other notifications are pushed to amazfit pace...
