Not sure if I'll describe my issue correctly, but I'll give it a go. A few months ago I noticed a cool new feature that showed when I took a screen shot quick links to share, open, etc. I also use Touchdown for email. When new messages arrived I would get a notification along with a prompts to view, delete, mark as read. I'm not sure if that was part of the Jellybean update or what. But then one day this cool new feature stopped. Recently it started again. It worked for at least a couple weeks, then I noticed today that it stopped again, I still get email notifications just not that new feature with the quick links.
Any ideas on how to get it back?
I think this normal..
Those feature come out depending how much notification you receive and how long you receive it..
Correct me if I'm wrong..

the automatically appear for the first notification ... otherwise if the email notification is the second one try the pinch zoom gesture on that notification ... i think that should do it ... and yes thats part of jelly bean expandable notifications
Pinching did the trick. I'm not sure why they'd want that punching feature.

I'm noticing that sometimes I'll only get a notification of new Gmail messages once it has a few to notify me of. It almost never tells me I have one new message, it's almost always 2, 3, 4, etc. Meaning that it just simply wasn't notifying me right away when a new message came through... I'm pretty sure my old android phones never did that and would always notify me right away... Any thoughts?

thanks. SmartSync needed to be turned on. Awesome. One problem down... ONE TO GO: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25898153#post25898153
I had many android phones before and I never had this many issues getting basic things to work.
Most options are not where they are supposed to or not at all. Instead of spamming further threads I figured I will put them all in one place.
On my phone the swipe and none (lock) options are grayed out "Disabled by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage". Huh ? Also I added my smartwatch as trusted device and it still shows lock screen. Also smart lock settings are nowhere to be found.
No way to control music without unlocking (setting it in notification menu didn't work for me).
Standard quick settings menu is missing (even though in review videos it's there). The command center is terrible. It takes too many taps to access certain things.
Default email client doesn't work with office365.
I want to love this phone so bad, but it makes it so difficult.
Does anyone else have any other frustrations ?
OK, I figured how to disable lock screen. In security options I "cleared credentials" and those options appeared.
try swipe up from center bottom for quick settings
I am unable to install 'Evernote' from the play store. I get error code 504. I have tried everything to resolve the issue including vpn from another country without luck. Could anyone out there with a Blu Pure XL please try to install this app to see if they get the same error? Thanks.
Same boat. I even emailed Blu's support about the Evernote issue & the fact that this phone does not have quick charge even though it is advertised as such 2 days ago. Have yet to hear back from them. Gonna call tomorrow.
Thank you. @thomasanderson

Whats interesting about this is every review unit video on youtube prior to release shows the Pure XL with the same swipe down stock lollipop notification window & quick settings as the Nexus 6. I wonder why Blu changed this on the release units to the swipe up quick settings & two tier notification system(not complaining cause I prefer it, just curious), and if that was the reason for the 3 week holdup from the initial release date.
Look at the 3:28 mark on the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkCfilwYIEc

You're absolutely welcome. Contacted Blu today. They told me that they would have to look into the quick charge issue and get back to me(yea right), and as far as the evernote app goes I would have to contact the developer. Interesting thing about that is that Evernote doesnt allow you to talk to them unless you are a premium subscriber. LOL! I was not aware of this. Looks like Ill be moving all my notes to Keep or Onenote for the time
being.
Found another annoyance. Led light is blinking green but there is no notifications on the phone and no way to get rid of it unless I disable the led completely. Also autobrightness doesn't work most of the time. On the verge of returning it.
OK restarting fixes the notification, but still...
BLU Pure XL
so far too many apps that work on my Nexus 5 running 5.1.1 but do not install or run on the BLU Pure XL running 5.1.
Out of Milk (sync does not work)
Evernote (504 install error)
I guess I will have to return the BLU. Super hardware, sloppy software it seems.

If you received a text or call, clearing the notifications from the notification bar is not enough. One have to go to the call and touch it to mark it as read. Kind of like an email, it does it for me.
I'm getting this weird issue where when I dismiss notifications from gmail, they will immediately come back and then dismiss themselves again one by one.
Easier to show than to explain, so here's a video: https://photos.app.goo.gl/PnGCYlIdcX5ua4Ji2
It's really annoying, especially since the notifications are also sent to my gear S2 watch which then just buzzes like crazy as my phone is cycling through all the notifications.
I've used all the google-fu I know and came up with pretty much nothing, so I'm hoping someone here can help me figure this out.
Potentially related: I get notifications for new e-mails pretty much as soon as they come in, but if I go to gmail on my computer and read or delete that e-mail, the notification won't update. It definitely used to, and I'm not really sure when that changed.
Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks!
I'm unable to play the video to see the notification . . . my internet is terrible right now. Perhaps you could just put up a single photo of the notification, or enter the text into your original post?
Check your setting for "Notification Reminders" under the Accessibility tab & find what you may have unknowingly switched on.
Happened to me once, I know how annoying it can be lol.
Hope this helps!
I get the same thing. Seems to be nothing to do to stop it however you may be able to reduce it to one notification in the gmail app settings just go to the app settings tap your email then about halfway down tap inbox, sound and vibrate and make sure notify for every msg is unchecked. Hope this helps.
I appreciate all the suggestions, unfortunately none of them seem to be the solution for me ...
JeffDC - A photo won't show anything, it will either show notifications there, or not, while the issue is when I dismiss a notification, it then comes back again after ~1 sec as another notification, then dismisses again after another couple of seconds, instead of properly dismissing the first time around.
og21 - Notification reminders were already off in accessibility settings.
wombat_combat - Notify for every message is already unchecked.
I get the same, haven't found a fix, but haven't looked hard either.
I suppose theirs still no solution? Been happening to me for months.
Same thing here. Haven't been able to find a solution. Galaxy S10 and only happens for my work email inside the secure folder.
Tagging this one again since it appeared on my google search.
On my previous Galaxy S8+ when I dismissed the notifications (notification shade) occasional a gmail notification (one just dismissed) would pop back up then immediately dismiss itself.
On my new S20 FE when I dismiss the notifications occasionally a gmail notification (one just dismissed) pops back up as if it was a new notification and stays there until dismissed again.
This happens when I clear it from the notifications and as soon as I swipe up the Gmail notification shows again. It's been happening for a while and I don't know how to tell them to fix it.
2021, this is still happening to me all the time. Gmail notifications come back to haunt me after clearing them. Sometimes they disappear after a few seconds, sometimes I have to dismiss them again.
Pixel 5.
I do have a suspicion it might be caused by Samsung Wear, maybe I'll remove notification access from it to see...
Update: ^ didn't work -.-
Same here. Stock Pixel 4a. Only one Google Account set up (which is a quite old Google Apps account).
Edit: The issue was also present on my former mobile, a Nokia 6.1, also running Stock firmware.
I'll bump this, too - same issue for months, Gmail notification pops (w/audio) immediately after I dismiss it. Have also tried all the "Google-fu" I know.
Pixel 4 XL - A11, stock and updated.
November 2021.
Still the same..
This is getting annoying AF.
Android should be better than IOS because it let the users control everything.
But what is with this crap.
I could not find any solution to let the notification notify ONLY when something new comes....
But I haven't tried hard either...
Anyone got any solution on this?
Go to your Gmail settings. General settings. Click on account. Scroll down to "nudges". Turn off. Repeat for each account.

Hello All
Ive got the GW4 46mm BT classic paired with a Note20U both up to date , woke up this morning after watch been fine for a week and put my watch on but no notifications coming thru to the watch did quick restart on both no go.
Reset the watch and only some notifications come thru no email or texts tho whatsapp is ok , checked settings nothing has changed.
Uninstalled galaxy gear app and reset watch still the same missing certain notifications even tho they are ticked .
Watch is set to show even if phone is open.
Any ideas ?
You may need to turn on notifications for the specific apps in the wearable app. I had to do this as I was getting no notifications for any apps.
Thanks for the reply
I've checked all the settings and all ticked . Emaids via the Samsung app now work but texts messages have now stopped showing on the watch even tho notification is ticked !!!
Same here, specially with Aqua Mail app, WhatsApp...etc.
As I never had this problem with the old generation watch I got before (Gear S3 running Tizen), I think we have just to wait for the 1st product OS update.
Youth problems are common on first releases. I hope first OTA will fix this annoying problem.

Same here. Text messages and phone calls appear fine. WhatsApp is a hit and miss, sometimes pops up, sometimes just silently shows the notification dot.
In general, regardless of this bug, notification management on this watch is a mess, very poor user experience.
Some things I noticed:
1. If you're driving with Android Auto, it's impossible to respond or take action on a notification on your watch. Anything you click on (such as 'Delete' on an email notification or 'Mark as Read' on a text message) seemingly registers on the watch but the notification persists and no action is taken.
2. The notification indicator is useless if you have the watch set to wake up the screen when you get a notification. Basically it wakes up the screen to display the notification and from that point on it's considered 'read' so the indicator won't appear, even if you didn't actually look at it. They should've had an option to show the indicator while you have uncleared notifications.
3. Multiple notifications from the same app require you to click on a tiny number icon at the bottom of the notification. Inconvenient. (Think when you have multiple WhatsApp messages from different contacts).
4. Looking at a notification screen gives you no indication of whether or not you have other notifications, you have to try to swipe left to check.
5. To clear a notification while it's open -- you either have to click 'back' to the main notification screen and then swipe up or scroll all the way down to find the 'clear' button -- which sometimes isn't there and you have to click on 'More...' first. How about just allowing me to swipe to dismiss it after reading it?!
They'e put a lot of emphasis on health, but given very little thought about the basics.
I can only confirm and complain that I get 0 notifications from Whatsapp even though I've checked all the notifiation settings multiple times. Also even though I've got the wear os version of telegram installed, the telegram notifications I get are standard notifications that can't show e.g. pictures or voice messages.
It was working fine when I got it on tuesday. It even worked fine after the "day 1 OTA". And now I get nothing at all. Tried everything from granting more permissions to the Watch4 Plugin or disabling battery optimization and stuff. Restarted both devices a lot. It just stopped working. I am glad I am not the only one...

Weird... well I guess I have to wait. lol
Update from me as well. I turned off both phone and watch and turned them back on together after a few minutes. I don't know why it works but it does.
Edit: Nvm it worked for like one notification and then it stopped working again...
Restarting both devices helped me.
I played around with a bit more. Restarting both devices helps...for a while. As soon as the watch reconnects to the phone (i.e. you move too far from your phone) it stops working. Very annoying still.

I have the impression that all the notifications work fine now: Gmail, WhatsApp, Nuki, telegram, Smartthings, messages, Gtask.
Hope it will stay ok.
Mean reason for me is having phone on silence but I can see notifications on watch.
Btw the watch 4 classic is a real beast.
What version of plugin do you have?
I still have no gmail vibrate.
I'm having issues with notifications. Just wanted to see if I missed a setting or it's just lame by design, or even just need a re-pair/reset. but, when receiving multiple notifications from the same app, is there any way to dismiss the latest and keep the others? This was the way all previous versions of wear worked, all notifications stacked and you could dismiss each one and all others for that app would remain
Now if I get more than one email if I dismiss what is displaying on the watch all notifications for gmail app are cleared including on the phone. If I open and delete the email it shows me the next one.
God I wish Google would have taken over the software dev on this. I's great hardware, but gimped by it's own ambition.
