Whatsapp Notification - LightFlow - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For Whatsapp I have different LED settings for group messages and personal messages. However it seems that the notifications for personal messages are displayed instead of the group ones.
For example if I have a purple LED for private messages and white for group. The purple will still shine for all group messages
Does anyone else have this problem? The same happens with the vibration and notification sound.
Thanks very much guys!

I have the same issue.
A green light for normal WhatsApp messages and nothing for group WhatsApp messages, but the notification will still flash green when I receive messages from groups.
Note that I have disabled notification light in WhatsApp itself.

I have the same problem. Happened after I went to Lollipop.
Then I switched to a Moto X (2014), and still the same issue (group notification causes personal notification).

I'm having the same issue, this makes it hard to use Light Flow with all the group messages coming in. Suppose there isn't anyone who found a fix yet?
Making a profile for whatsapp group messages with everything turned off doesn't seem to work either...
UPDATE

I've got a fix coming for this very soon. Just finishing testing that group notifications still work when stacked up with other notifications. Whatsapp with lollipop actually raise several notifications for each message you see which is what causes the issue.

SMS Test grouping?

If I send a text message to multiple people (with MMS turned off, so it actually sends SMS), it's grouping that text in it's own little section in the text messaging app, instead of putting the message inline with the rest of the conversations with the respective people. Is there a way to fix this? setting perhaps? It's very annoying!
Thanks,
--Glenn.
Because that is how group messages are handled...as their own conversation...you could try turning group messages off in the app settings...

[Q] Gear 2 Notification Issue w/ Whatsapp

Hello,
Recently I've been having issues with the notifications on the Gear 2 with Whatsapp+
I had my groups inside the app set to Mute and to not recieve notifications, it worked perfectly until one of the recent updates, which one, I'm not sure.
What happens now is the following:
Whenever I have no group messages I receive notifications from regular chats perfectly displaying who sent the message and the preview of the message BUT .....
Whenever I have unread group notifications (of which I have removed from pushing beyond the app) and a regular message is sent, the gear 2 pops up notification from the GROUP which is muted and notifications turned off.
Its annoying because I have to check who sent the message due to the fact that somehow the group notifications take priority in the preview of the message even though they are turned off..
Its really specific issue and hard to explain, I've searched forums and what not and I've yet to find anyone with this issue. Ive tried reinstalling gear software, resetting to factory settings, turning on/off notifications, installing regular Whatsapp to no avail.
I can't see the message from my contact whenever I have unseen group messages. very friggin frustrating....
Anyone know what causes this issue? Any help would be appreciated.

[Q] Group SMS issues on my OPO?

I am having some problems on my OPO's SMS system that's really starting to be frustrating. When I am present in a group chat eventually I will get an error on my notification bar that says, "Message not sent" and then I go back in the group chat but my messages were actually sent my friends respond back to me. I will post a picture of what it looks like. I clear the notification, and then when I receive or I send a text message, (group chat or individual) the notification will pop back up on the notification bar. To get rid of this pesky problem I have to clear my entire text message history then the notification will go away, but not for good. Once any of my friends in the group chat decides to send a text out in the chat I receive the notification once again.... It is very annoying. Anyone have any idea how to fix this??
Thanks in Advance.

[Bug] Light flow notification settings not working after Nougat update on 930U

I was recently (Monday) updated to 7.0 on my 930U, and I found that light flow no longer sees SMS messages coming in (using the plain SMS listener it has), however MMS messages still notify without an issue. I was able to work around this a little by adding custom notifications for the app, however, this isn't ideal because 1) I have a contact specific notifications for my wife, and using this method makes it trigger even for group messages that my wife happens to be in (you can imagine how annoying that gets in chatty threads!) and 2) my special settings to keep mms messages (i.e. group threads) from notifying me more than once per 30 minutes don't work, as there's no way to differentiate a group message using the custom notification settings.
Anyway, TLDR; is anyone else noticing that sms messages don't trigger notifications with Light Flow on the S7 w/ Nougat?
I'm having this same problem on my s8+. Did you ever rind a resolution?

Can't turn off Whatsapp vibrate!!

Hi all,
I had an S8+ and Whatsapp was set to show the badge if there was a message or group message only (no vibrate or sound) and worked flawlessly. I got an S10 about a month ago, and I have set it to silent + no vibrate (both in Whatsapp notifications and on system settings) but it keeps vibrating when I get a message. The system settings keep reverting back to 'sound and vibrate' every couple days so I keep changing it to 'silent + no vibrate'. But even when it's set to this, it still vibrates!!
It really annoys me, as I only want my phone to vibrate for calls, messages and emails, not Whatsapp.
Any ideas how to fix this? I've uninstalled and reinstalled Whatsapp and it didn't fix it. I've done all software updates as well.
Go to Settings - Apps Notifications - Whatsapp, Block Notifications.

HI James, I still want an icon at the top of my screen when I have a message - I just don't want the sound or vibration.
Hi, any ideas?
There are three different settings for vibration in whatsapp: Messages, Groups and Calls. Have you tried disabling all of them?
Hi! Have you found a solution? I have the same problem on Note 9 and this drives me crazy.
Same for s20 fe that's a shame. It drives me crazy.
