Issue with notifications from one single app (N26) - Samsung Galaxy S21 Questions

Hello,
this thread is very specific because it's about a single app from a single bank that operates in Europe (N26).
I hope to find someone who has the same bank who can tell their experience.
So the issue is this: if I tap on any notification coming from this app, the notification disappears and the app does not open. For example if I have to confirm the desktop login through the app, I click on the notification and nothing happens, so I have to manually open the app in order to retrieve the popup message and take some action.
Needless to say, I tried to uninstall and reinstall the app on my S21 with no success, and I tried the same with three other phones in my family (Oppo, Huawei, Honor) and with these other phones there are no issues opening the notifications coming from this app, they correctly redirect to the app showing the required popup.
Anyone who can check if they have the same problem?
Or in general has anyone experienced the same problem with some other app? Any suggestions?
Thank you
Edit: I managed to find someone with that bank account and the same device. He tested for me and confirmed this behaviour. So it must be an S21 series problem

Try clearing the system cache... can't hurt.

Chrome site push notifications not working

Not sure where to post this to get help with this weird little problem... But recently I read about Facebook notifications being able to come through Chrome for Android, negating the need to have the app installed. However, when I visit the site in chrome I never get a pop up requesting permissions for notifications like some ppl are saying I should get. I go under site settings and Notifications are set to "Ask First" and toggling the switch just disables them completely. Even sites that I can go to on my PC and get a notifications request prompt will not give me a prompt when I visit them in chrome on my phone, so I don't think this is just a problem with FB.
I've tried clearing cache and data for Chrome, reinstalling it, using Chrome Beta instead and never get the notification access request or anything.
If someone has any ideas, I would love to be able to uninstall the Facebook apps and just getting notifications through Chrome. Thanks!
*edit* I should probably mention I am using a nexus 6 with Android M preview 3
same here
any update on this? were you able to find a fix?
I've contacted Facebook's support but couldn't get anything other than the auto-reply.
Please let me know if you've found anything.
lg v20, it's still an issue

Error message: "Failed to do geocode lookup [...]"

Hi everyone,
I always get this annoying popup message
"Failed to do geocode lookup, request timed out (TimeoutError) "
I'm not sure whether it's a problem of this Huawei phone or a general Android/app message because I can't figure out which app is showing this message.
It appears in every app including home screen about every 30 minutes for about 2 or 3 seconds.
Can anyone help me?
I am having the same issues as well. Hopefully someone has fixed it!
It looks like an app that needs location access permission to function doesn't have permission. I would go into settings/apps/permissions/location and you will see a list of apps with the location permission toggled on or off. See if there is anything obvious that needs location access like the weather app or Maps.
You can also go into apps, select Google Services and make sure it has has location access permission. The Google app needs location access as well.

Thanks for your answer, I tried this out by giving location access to all my available apps, including system apps, but the message still appeared today
Same here, only on Samsung S9

I have the same issue on a Samsung Galaxy S9. This is a company phone and none of the other owners of the same model have this issue, so it must be an app or a setting.

There is a simple way to find which app shows that message.
Just install the Toast Source (created by Michał Jakubowski) app from Play and enable it as service.
It will send a notification after every toast message so you can get information about the source.
For me it was the digical. It had all permission. After I reinstall it the message disappeared.
I hop it will help you as well.

App closes automatically

I was using the mapping app gps-tracks.com. When I open it now, a pop-up appears, saying "This app is no longer supported. Please uninstall the app" in German and offering an OK button only. See screenshot at dropbox.com/s/7weviuc5dksmv2w/Screenshot_2019-09-01-22-14-04-781_com.GPSTracks.png.
Whether I click OK or not, a few seconds later the app automatically closes. I thought this pop-up and closing logic is part of a new release of the app. I installed older versions of the app from an apk mirror, apkmonk.com/app/com.GPSTracks/. But the same popup continuous to appear and the app gets closed automatically whatever old release I install. How is this possible? And how can I stop this?
Why I need a solution: From GPS-Tracks I purchased maps for indefinite offline usage. GPS-Tracks was acquired by Outdooractive. They have their own app and are not interested in maintaining the acquired app. So they initiated this change. I contacted them and they gave me a free license for one year for their new app. But I purchased unlimited usage and want to use the maps as long as I can run the apk on whatever Android version I will use. Currently I am on Pie and the last version of the app did run on Pie.
An idea: try to block the network connection just for this app (and also clear its cache just to be sure). Since you already have the maps offline, it would prevent whatever check they have to access the server.

Thanks, vegesm! You hit the nail. When starting the app in airplane mode the popup does not appear and the app does not close. I can even stop airplane mode and continue using the already started app. The cache is not relevant. So, the app receives the instructions for popup and automatic closing from a server each time freshly at startup.
As it is a bit cumbersome to manually start and stop airplane mode each time, I wonder whether I can permanently disrupt the server connection. Possibly I could block the server's IP on a firewall on the device, or install a proxy and let it block or redirect access attempts to the DNS address of the server? How can I find out about the IP or DNS address contacted at app start? And then, what app or configuration allows blocking it?
I've never tried them but as far as I know firewall apps can already block network per app, no need to detect the server ip.

Sonic Sender (Whatsapp Auto Sender)

Hi,
I bought Sonic Sender and due to some changes in Google policy, App Developer has to taken down the app from Google Play Store. This app is very useful since it send automatically message oon whatsapp to selected contacts (For example I need to send New Year Wishes to 400 people out of my 700 whatsapp contact). I have to choose contact, select media and text and click on Send. It send automaticllay one by one to selected whatsapp contact and thus saving my time. I was using the app even after removing from play store but yesterday due to some reason I uninstalled and reinstalled app. App Version 2.0.6 which is readily available on many website crashes after opening of app (I guess due to non-availability of same on Play Store) and Version 2.1.1 stuck with Google Login and when I select account it throw error Failed to Authenticate.
Can any one help me getting the app working again or can some one suggest me any alternative to said app.
Thanks in Advance....

Did you find any alternative of Sonic Sender?
Same happened with me, i had even paid for the full version of the app, but the developer has stopped supporting this app, hence the error. Now the app tries to verify licence with Google during startup which fails due to obvious reasons. After googling a bit, i tried bypassing google licence verification using lucky patcher, but unfortunately the app had a check to prevent such hacks. I tried reaching the developer on [email protected], but got no reply.
The only way out I see is to either pester the developer to provide a usable version of the app or by using a third party app modifier like lucky patcher to bypass the verification.
Any help will be appreciated

How To Guide More than 5 App Notifications

Little Trick!
In order to receive more notifications than the 5 you set yourself, you have the option of loading the Blackberry Hub+ and the associated services from the PlayStore. You can manage many accounts there. works perfectlyfor me!

Isn't it just a notification 'watcher'? Those apps would still need to show notifications to appear in the Blackberry Hub+ inbox???

No, the hub accesses the accounts directly, not the system.
Is like your mail program that accesses your mail account.
Look on Screenshot, it is Not the Gmail icon at the top.
I can't see a way to configure WhatsApp for example - surely it requires me to approve access or hook it up somehow?
I must look and test it, the N is not my daily driver.
WA is at the time on iPhone.....
Most of the chat apps (WhatsApp, Line...) Have auto-start set by default (without being one of the 5 custom auto-start apps), and therefore notifications will show, and be 'captured' by the Blackberry Hub. But for example, I just added Google Chat, which DOESN'T have auto-start set, and it doesn't show in Blackberry Hub, because there are no notifications...
I'm not sure I like the solution or workaround of yet another app to deal with notifications that should be a standard solution, aka OS and base UI API, from Google AndroidOS itself.
I'm fully aware of BlackBerry and its history, yet how up to date is this BlackBerry Hub and what's the official word from BlackBerry update future updates? If nothing official this would be a temporary solution.
Is Oppo taking user feedback on all channels (aka official support forums, support email/phone, twitter, etc)? They already have a global 'Ambassador' program to help launch and sales of the Find N2 Flip.

CN ROM have limitations because Chinese app developers are garbage that stuffs apps full of offer notifications auto start and push for more monetization.. if u seen the china app market, it's 90% junk apps there that ask for every single permission possible to harvest ur data and sell openly to the big firms..
I tried this on my Find N2 (fold) no luck in getting other apps configured to receive notifications - the only one I could get to work was GMAIL..
Anyone else have any luck in getting other apps working using the Blackberry HUB such as Facebook etc?
Cheers FROSTY
