Not always getting notifications!! - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there,
So I don't always message people, but when I do I rarely get notified they replies. This mainly occurs in Hangouts and Facebook Messenger. What happens is I will message someone, close the messaging app, lock the screen and wait for my led notification light to alert me that I have a reply. But every now and then I don't!!! I currently run the Paranoid Android Beat4.
Thanks in Advance

I have also the same problem with all the apps that send notifications....fb,fb messenger,g+ and tapatalk...fb and fb messenger sometimes send notifications...g+ and tapatalk almost never....

When I wake up in the morning I have to manually check my messages and gmail because sometime through the night the notifcations disappear. It could be something crashes during the night, because I know I am reaching onto my desk from my bed to clear the notification but leave it unread.

Same here. I made a post referring to the phone sleeping through notifications. Seems it can happen with any notification but mostly I notice it with Hangouts.
I have a feeling this issue is what many people are actually referring to when they say their notification LED doesn't always work. Except the sound doesn't play either.

Same here. I have to physically open. Hope this gets fixed in 4.4.3 update!

Interference between SMS Pop up and noLED

So I've been running noLED on my Nexus S for a while now and just decided to add the app SMS Popup. The problem is that when my phone is sleeping and I get a text I no longer get the notification icon from noLED only, I also get the message pop up and the buttons on it (reply and close) stay active.
I wish that when my phone was sleeping and I got a text I only got the "notification light" from noLED and once I unlocked the screen I'd see the SMS pop up. Does anyone know of a way to reach that? Maybe another app would behave accordingly? Thanks
Under the miscellaneous setting in noled check the option to delay SMS notifications. Works great for me.
That said the pop-up won't be there when the phone is unlocked. Just for the I initial screen on.

Thanks for the tip but that doesn't really help me achieve what I want.
Maybe I could try another SMS program? (Handcent, etc) Opinions/experiences would be great.
I don't think the app matters. The way I understand it is noled will "dismiss " any popup occupying the screen in order to work.
Let me know if you find something though as its an option I'd love to have myself.

Tried Handcent, Chomp, tried even using Widget Locker and it was a no go.

[Q] How Do You Clear Voicemail Notification?

Orange UK does not let you listen to new VM until you have created a personalised greeting. A real problem if you are traveling...
So I finally create a greeting and listen to VM, but notification still there 3 days later. Rubbish.

I'm also on orange. Voicemail notifications kept appearing for me until I would delete the voicemails. Then no more notifications. Not ideal, but eh.

FB Notifications Problem

I am having problems with the Facebook notifications. I can not receive any of them. Its the ROM issue, because my wife can receive notifications and her phone is not even rooted. Anyone having the same problem or know how to troubleshoot?

Its not a rom issue...if you've never signed into Facebook on a blackberry, notifications will not work! Sign onto a blackberry and you will start getting them on your android...idk why it works but it does

I just downloaded FB for the hell of it - have you gone into facebook > settings and checked "Notifications' active, then down to 'Notification ringtone' and set a tone? It was defaulted to 'Silent' on my phone.
Yeah all those are good. I just can't get the notifications on the status bar

@nativesmiley: Facebook push notifications will work where they show in status bar.
Here is what I did that eventually got it working -
Logged into FB on computer - In 'Account Settings' > 'Mobile Settings' - I activated my phone number.
In FB app on phone - went to Settings > 'Refresh interval' - Set it to 'Never' and Notifications set to 'Active'.
Clicked the three bars in top left corner, scrolled down to the bottom, click 'Account'. Then 'Account settings'. Then 'Security'. Enabled 'Email Login Notifications'.
You should compare these settings to your wife's phone.
I am also on Valhalla Black.

Friendcaster notifications

I just downloaded the new version of the Friendcaster app with the ICS theme, enabled the Push C2DM notifications, said "yes this is awesome", and went about my business. Next time I opened up Friendcaster, I all of a sudden I got a notification and popup with a couple of FB notifications that happened a long time ago. This is annoying. I want to get the notification and the popup when I'm not currently in the app, not just when I go into that app. In other words, the "push" notifications are not pushing. Any suggestions? (I'd prefer not to go with the Gmail method for notifitcations, but I will if I have to until this gets fixed.)

I think it would be better to send the dev an email, because push notification is working perfectly for me.

I know this is an old thread but did you get it to work? I'm having the same problem..
Unfortunately I never did. Just stuck with the gmail notifications, but I haven't tried the push notifications in a while now.

How to stop notification sound when receiving a text

Hello,
My phone is on a montioring system that sends me a text when a system is having a problem. I need the alarm to be long and loud so I am positive to hear it even if sleeping. My problem is when I get one I want it to automatically stop making noise if I pick up my phone, sweep the screen saver or anything that indicates I'm going to look at the message.
How do I stop the text notification noise if I'm actually looking at my phone?
Thanks

Thanks - I'm not sure what you are trying to say. To be clear - i want the loud long notification for text - but I want it to shut off when I pick up my phone or touch my screen.

Thanks -no app - just native text messaging notification. I changed the default sound for text messages to a long loud notifications so I respond to emergency texts. I just want to be able to quickly shut them off when I get them.

Well after messing with the native messaging app I've come to the conclusion that its not that great
I'm running Verizon messaging when you hit the popup it kills the notification sound
It tried the kill service app but you cant kill what you can't see running

I don't know if this works for text messages but have you tried the 'turn over to mute' in motion settings? it works great for incoming phone calls.
