Badge app icons are not working on my phone for Facebook and Messenger app, for Gmail (probably some more apps but i can't think of them right now) and I don't have them in setting to enable this notification.
It is brand new phone, 10 days old. I have updated it right away on EMUI 5.1 / Android 7.0 / Build STF-L09C432B183 as the phone said it was the latest.
I have uninstalled apps, restarted phone and then installed them again, restarted again. Nothing
Factory reset. Nothing
Enabled everything i could find on notification settings, battery optimization, etc... Notning
I still don't have them in settings so i can enable them.
I get push notifications about mails, about messages, about likes on fb etc... but no badge notification.
I have attached screenshot.
Any help, ideas?
I have exactly the same problem. But ...
There are settings to turn this on. Hold the finger on the empty space of home screen then tap Settings in the lower right and then Badge app icons and then turn them on. However, these settings didn't fix my issue, I hope they solve yours. I have the exact same phone and firmware/software, does anybody know the solution?
Thanks!
I have the same problem. The apps that don't show an icon aren't on the list you mentioned and I've looked through all other settings in the settings app and in the apps themselves. But yesterday I got a notification that there was a new system update. And after I downloaded it I have had icon badges on Facebook Messenger. But still nothing on Snapchat or Gmail.
Working perfectly here. I'm on oreo.

This problem only began happening yesterday but i do not recall downloading anything new or changing settings. I will attach a screenshot (with sensitive info blanked) which shows what is happening. I use cloudmagic for email and textra for texts. It has always just shown the messages from each simply with the person its from and the body of the text below. However now i am seeing duplicated of both texts messages and emails (not whatsapp duplicated though) . One is the normal textra/cloudmagic notification but the other is the more blank looking one of each, with the grey icon - See screenshot. Any help would be greatly appreciated on how to get the second almost blank (except for sender) notification turned off for both texts and emails. Thanks
You are also getting notifications from the stock apps. Simple. Go in and shut them off

I have set the 'email' app to show no notification from this app in - sound and notificiation area and also in the app area listed unticked show notifications. Same for default messaging. Is there anywhere else this needs to be done?

No telling as I am sure we have different devices and different setups. Could be something got corrupted. Try making sure that all things are marked as read and then clear the cache in the apps and reboot.

It seems that your third party apps are conflicting with system apps thats why you receive duplicated notifications, however you can go to application manager in Settings and set default apps of your choice, hope this may solve your problem
Thanks so much for both of your replies, still no luck yet!
Long press the notification and then hit the info button that will tell you what app it is and allow you to disable the notification.
Ok that was helpful and its make me discover the weirdest thing, both notifications are from the app i want to use. So for emails its cloudmagic and it sends me the usual cloudmagic notification - with the sender and body and also sends me the second grey empty notification. Whats wierder still its the same for texts, double notification, one the normal textra notification, the other greyed out and also from textra. So none of the stocks apps are sending the dual notifications
Actually just noticed it only happens ont he lock screen, not int he pull down notification area. I am using smart launcher
Strange thing keeps happening only noticed it wen I get an email I use yahoo mail when email comes thru screen goes black then back to home screen keeps doing it until I dismiss email any idea what I can do cuz I want to keep yahoo mail app
Update **** deleted yahoo mail synced with Gmail and its doing same
No 1 at all
it even does it wen I update apps in play store aswell
It's like it's refreshing the screen like normal wallpaper then black screen then back 2 wallpaper keeps doing it until I remove email or update
Update If anyone cares I've had an update and I think the problem is fixed :good:
Same bug any notification and back to home screen
Hello rowbaggie22,
You are not alone I have same kind of trouble : as soon as I get a notification (incoming sms, gmail, huawei mail, launching deezeer ...) my Mate 10 Pro get a black screen for 1 second, refresh the wallpaper and set back to home screen every 5 seconds ! I have to read the message or delete the notification (this work around is not working 100%) or kill tasks to get ride of these bug.
This is very very annoying. This bug appeared since perhaps 2 weeks. The phone was working without this bugs since 1 and 1/2 month.
It seems to be a problem with notifications management, If I disable all there is no problem anymore :laugh: ... but that is not a good idea.
Please Huawei give us a patch.
Update of my previuous post : notification bug resolved
Hello,
I managed to get rid of this notifications bug. I reset all notifications to default and installed latest Huawei Mate 10 pro updateBLA-L29 8.0.0.129 (C432).
I don't know if notifications reset was mandatory prior to upgrading but now the notifications are OK and don't set me back to home screen each time
Screen flickering when notifications
Hi,
You said you reset the Notifications, how exactly did you do this?

Hello Rinazzle,
(my huawei is configured in French language, so the english menu will differ from what i'have writen here under)
Options > Application & Notifications > Applications then choose parameter icon at the bottom
Choose "Special application autorisations" > "Superpose to other applications"
Choose the 3 dot ... at top right of the screen > Reset to Default
(There was an other menu : Choose "Modify system parameters" then the 3 dot icons "..." at top right > "Reset to Default"
Can't get notifications from Facebook, Words With Friends, Facebook Messenger and other apps. No badge notifications or alerts. And I get Facebook Messenger notifications at the top of the screen with every text sent or recorded WHILE USING FACEBOOK MESSENGER! Anyone else having notification issues?
I texted with Samsung tech support (big mistake!) and they said that it was a hardware issue and to return the S9+ to Verizon for replacement. This makes no sense to me. Sounds like a software issue. Thoughts?
what launcher are you using?
if stock Samsung launcher, pinch in on the screen and go to settings... you'll find that notification badges have to be turned on there separately for some annoying reason
if any other launcher, make sure you've given it notification access under accessability so the launcher can read notifications and give you the correct 'badge' for the icon
I heard that for some, the battery optimization might be running too aggressively. Try going into battery usage, settings (3 dots), then battery optimization, then select to show all apps, then try unselecting the apps your having problems with. Give it a run for a few days to see if that helps.
I am using Samsung's launcher. Spent 2 hours on the phone with them. Tried everything. Nothing works. May have to do a factory reset
It's software issues. I got the same problem.

Tried your suggestion. So far, no dice.
Yeah I am looking toward a factory reset too. Notification issue but different. no Edge Lighting alerts.
I have tried everything I can think of to get Edge Lighting Notifications to work. After a week with this phone I am yet to see one. Samsung Experience Home. Notifications on for everything. No apps have Optimise battery usage. All I get is a notification tone, an icon on the AOD and a status bar icon. But for me Edge Lighting Notifications are totally MIA!
So I eventually got some Edge Lighting alerts to work. Primarily by going into each and every app that I awn the alerts from and setting "Do not disturb custom exception" to On within it Notification area. PITA to have to do this in each app when it should be settable from the system notification area one would think. Now have it working for Whatsapp, Skype and Samsung Messaging.
But for love or money I cannot get it to work for GMail. Anyone else got Edge Lighting alerts working with GMAIL. Setting "Do not disturb custom exception" does not do it.
Hello
I've looked through the settings many many times, and I can't figure out how to get notifications from apps (whatsapp plus, Bluemail, Textra) to appear on the sleep screen- the black screen that shows the clock and battery percentage. The stock messaging app will post an icon to that screen when a message arrives, but no other.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I have a bla-a09 US variant running version 119.
Only stock apps (message, email, call etc) appear on the Always Display Information screen. Other apps like WhatsApp, Facebook etc won't show there. This is how Huawei's software works.
Hey all, I have an issue with the notification settings being limited/not available for some apps. Both Yi Home and Mi Home are missing the option to configure notifications for certain categories and the MIUI settings claim that the apps haven't shown any notifications (see greyed out 'categories' in the first two attachments). If I take i.e. the BlueMail app (third attachment), I have all the default categories available (floating, lock screen, sound, vibration and LED).
What else is weird is that Mi Home does vibrate and activates the LED when a notification is shown, but Yi Home does not do anything, it only shows the notification in the status bar so I no longer get any alerts from my camera unless I unlock the phone and go look for it manually. This is a big problem for me and I would appreciate it if somebody could tell me how to fix this. I've looked through all the settings and tried everything I can think of but it just seems that MIUI doesn't detect the notifications for some reason.
I just checked the Yi Home app on my Honor 7 and there I do have more options, see attachment. So really not sure whether this is an app bug, OS bug or MIUI bug.
Is there really no one else here that uses either of these apps on the Pocophone to see if he/she has the same problem?
