I'm guessing this is a bug with the Samsung calendar. I've been using the Google calendar since I've had an Epic Touch (S2) and had this issue on that phone also. After installing the Google calendar, I disable the Samsung calendar by going to Settings -> Set alerts & notifications -> Off. The problem with this is that every time I reboot, the setting resets to "Status bar notification". Because of this I end up with double notifications. Is there any way to make this setting stick? I'm thinking I probably need to uninstall the Samsung calendar or have a script run at boot (Tasker?).

You can go into settings - application manager - then disable calendar
or
just use root browser and change the touchwiz calendar SJFKDL.bak
I knew it had to be something simple. Didn't even think to look in the application manager. There is a check box for Show Notifications. Unchecked it and no more double notifications. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
This isn't a permanent fix unfortunately! I'm having the same trouble and every morning or throughout the day I have to repeat that process and it doesn't stay disabled. Please advise ASAP
Wonder if someone can tell me what Im doing wrong here. Im using secure settings with Macrodroid (prefer this to tasker).
My issue is, whenever a macro is triggered that uses secure settings (for example, turn on airplane mode when connected to wifi), it will launch secure settings in the foreground in order to do it.
Also, if secure settings isnt open in the background (i.e., not in recents) and the macro is triggered, nothing will happen.
Any ideas what is going on? I know this isn't the normal behavior with secure settings, but Im stumped.
Hey guys i have problems with notifications with all apps. Sometimes i receive notifications and sometimes not.
No one has this problem?
You have to take a number of measures in order to get notifications to work reliable:
1. Go to phone manager and set application in start apps on manual - and activate all switches
2. Type in "battery optimization" in settings and switch it off for the app
3. Open the app and then go to "recent apps" swipe the app down so a little lock appears above the app
4. Go to settings, then apps, then choose the app. Give all permissions and notifications
5. (Most important): go to settings - battery - further settings. Activate "always stay connected"
Notifications should work fine now. If not, uninstall the app, reinstall it and do steps 1 to 4 again.
BTW some expression I used may not be correct as I have set my phone language to German.
even though I've disabled all battery settings from stopping them running – whatsapp messages arrive instantly though?
I'm using the gmail app with my gmail/google account. I've battery saver turned off https://i.imgur.com/UCyqAAs.jpg I've enabled “allow background data usage” Https://i.imgur.com/1g4GIoS.jpg I read this way should fix it, but it didn't https://old.reddit.com/r/galaxys10/...notification_until_i_wake_the_device/elflp8v/ I've disable battery optimization for gmail in “set it to "not optimized" in "optimize battery usage" by going to Settings -> Device Maintenance -> Battery -> Battery Usage -> 3 dots or hold the Back key -> Optimize battery usage -> apps not optimized -> all apps” Https://i.imgur.com/8pekwOf.jpgi data saver is turned off https://i.imgur.com/CfhTmAw.jpg In gmail app notification settings I have allowed the notifications of gmail to appear (I think that selecting “hide content” is the one to do this) https://i.imgur.com/gOgSflJ.jpg . I've keep wifi on During sleep enabled https://i.imgur.com/0wrdkMc.jpg I had sync turned on https://i.imgur.com/1VrKxSd.jpg when i go to Settings -> Device Maintenance -> Battery -> gmail doesn't appear as a monitored app. I tested it there by sending an email to my account while my phone was locked, and it arrived instantly on my desktop gmail website version, while I receive the email notification on the phone while it was lockeded beetween 10-20 minutes after it had arrived on my desktop Gmail, – is there anyway I can keep the gmail sync Always running while my phone is locked so that I'll get the emails intently even while the phone is locked? I’m after noticing there that this also happens in Another online app, the official twitter app. But I receive whatsapp messages instantly even when locked So it must be disabling internet in certain apps. How would I stop internet from being deactivated in certain apps?
No matter what settings I change, notifications don't work properly on this phone, Gmail doesn't work at all and other apps only work sometimes.
I've locked into memory, turned off freeze, turned off powerbsave
Is there anything else I can do?
Seems absolutely crazy to have paid almost there same money as a Samsung and yet having such fundamental issues.
Thanks
I'm with you here... Very hit and miss. Screen off and sometimes it notifies and sometimes it only notifies when you pick up the phone and wake it. Screen on and mostly it's ok but WhatsApp for example, when the screen is on it notifies but sometimes won't use the custom notification tone i set. Tried playing with the power saving settings and setting all the messaging and email apps to stay on in the background and same result.
Phone and text messages do seem ok tho.
Yeah it's so intermittent and such a large issue for such a expensive device
Never had this issue since I got the device

I have same issues. This morning I checked battery settings and some that I moved to always run in background, had moved back to smart, meaning phone could kill them. Not sure how they had moved

CAn you share your Gmail settings please?
<notification settings)
I'm confused about the smart power saver option.
If I turn 'Smart Power Saver' OFF, then a new option appears. 'Custom Power Saver'.
If I go into 'Custom Power Saver' and I tap an app they appear to all be set to 'Smart Background Running(recommended)'. Is that the same as leaving 'Smart Power Saver' ON?
So I could just turn 'Smart Background Running' to 'Run in Background' for the apps I want, but leave the other apps at the default and it would be the same as 'Custom Power Saver'?
Is that correct?

That's how I read it, yes... but the issue is that its still hit and miss for notifications, even with run in background selected
Think I may have made a break through. In battery settings, choose/turn on 'intelligent power saver'. Then back into Settings and 'App Management' and 'App List' you can then set individual power settings for each app required, and it appears that these settings then actually 'stick', rather than randomly changing back to 'Smart Background Running'
