No notification from hangouts and other apps. - Sprint Note 7 Questions & Answers

So I turned on max power save mode and turns it back on when I was able to charge my Note 7. Now I don't get any notifications from any apps. Like If I get a hangouts message or an email, no notification. It's like use background data is still off but I can't find the setting.
When I open the app (specifically hangouts) I get all the new texts and notifications.
Anyone have this issue? Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

I found the setting to restrict background data and I turned it off... Or

Where is that setting

Follow these steps and it will work - http://en.miui.com/thread-46253-1-1.html
you just need to auto start the apps and give them required permissions.

If you use stock launcher it would be on one of your homepages...v
Go to Settings and Power Saving. Choose which you want to run on background.
For my Huawei P8: go to Settings-Power Saving and click Power monitoring and click View button in apps still running after screen turns off and protect app you want to run on background.

S8+ Facebook messenger chat heads

I have recently moved from iPhone to the s8. I do not get chat heads at all with messenger, is it still supported? I’d really like to get this enabled. I have checked google and searched the issue and can only find how to turn it off. I have ensured on top notification is enabled. I have a galaxy tab also, it did work previously but is now experiencing the same thing. Is this a nougat issue? I have no setting in my Facebook messenger for chat heads either. Thanks in advance for any help.
Make sure you don't have Messenger Lite.
Check the screen overlay permissions.
Borrowed from android central.
- Launch Settings from your home screen.
- Scroll down and tap on Apps.
- Tap the overflow menu button in the top-right corner and tap Special access.
- Tap on Apps that can appear on top.
- Find Messenger and make sure it's turned on.
I physically do not have a toggle to turn it on in messenger

I have logged out, removed , restarted and re installed, cleared data and cleared cache. I can get the function of chat heads by using an app called flychat that's the only way I can get the function.
I checked a friends Verizon phone his selection reads "draw on top" my unlocked phone reads " apps that appear on top" I have for enabled but still nothing appears
The only way I got it to work was to log out and start like it was a new account, now chat heads works perfectly, need to figure out how to associate new messenger profile with old facebook account
Same issue
I have had my S8+ for a few weeks now and am experiencing the same issue. Wish I could find the link, but I found something saying it has to do with our facebook UID.
Issue resolved with the latest update to facebook messenger
Mine ignores the off setting

Notification - not all shown

I'm new to Vivo and I've found not receiving notifications for third-party apps like WhatsApp etc.
These are the options confirmed by Vivo.
1. You can open Whatsapp>Settings>Notifications>turn on the notification switches. You can take the pictures below for reference;
2. You can go to Settings>Status bar and notification>Manage notification> Whatsapp, turn on all the switches;
3. You can go to Settings>More settings>Applications>Floating window, turn on the switch of Whatsapp;
a. Go to Settings>More settings>Applications>Autostart>turn on Autostart of Whatsapp; Back to Floating window, then turn on the floating window of the app.
b. Add Whatsapp to Speedup Whitelist;
c. Go to Settings>Battery>Excessive background battery usage, and then allow the app to continue running when the background power consumption is high.
Hope it works.
Thanks

Strange not here, only when i keep whatsapp on lock in background i get notifications. Now that i unistalled i Manager everting works fine and no lock on background is needed anymore.
You have to enable the programs you want to work in the background with iManager, permission management. You'll see various options there. I had issues with my gear Fit2 watch constantly disconnecting. After I enabled everything that deals with the gear Fit2 (to include the plug-in) it worked.

I can't get any notifications! Help!

I got my Note 10 Plus today and everything on it. Anyway, the notification icons do NOT show up on the always on, or on the notification bar on the home screen and on the app buttons. Like if I want to check Gmail or my Samsung email app I have to manually go in and check it.
I checked the apps permissions and I got notifications set on for all of them.
What gives?
Do I need to do factory reset?

Probably a quick toggle accidentally pushed. Check things like do not disturb settings and meeting sync etc.

Me also. Shows Sprint. I get notifications from my V40 which is how I know mail is in unless I check manually.
My Gmail wasn't updating in the background until I went to app settings and TURNED OFF battery optimization for Gmail. It looks like the phone kills the app to save battery, thus stopping new email notifications coming through until you open the app

My GF has a Note 8 and regardless of the settings it loves putting apps to sleep which causes missed notifications. My OP6T used to occasionally get missed notifications but compared to the Note 8 it's very well behaved.
Companies are getting too aggressive with their battery optimisations
I am having this issue as well. I have scoured the web for answers. I have tried all fixes but nothing seems to work. Anyone find a resolve yet?
I had the same issue then figured out it happened with the Goodlock app. Instead of trying to tweak the settings in just uninstalled the app and got all of my notifications back!

Question Hide incoming call popup for Google Phone app

I am using Google Phone and Contacts app (Samsung apps are terrible to use, although they look better).
When receiving a phone call, on top of the full screen page I see a notification popup: how can I disable it?
If I go into app's notification settings, all is enabled but greyed out, so cannot change.
Thx
Anyone here?

click on right arrow and disable notification
As said, not possible, all greyed out and default to on
You could try with Auto Notification and Tasker
Do you have Google dialer installed? Can you show me how your notification settings look like (enabled or greyed out)?
They are greyed out on Samsung dialer too
I know why... Google is forcing some properties to fixed so that users cannot change notifications. Problem is that they should fix this behaviour which I believe is a bug.
Strange cos my Xiaomi phone does not have this problem: same app version, same settings greyed out.

Can you pls try to also set phone app as default for calls and ask some one to call you, to see if you get the notification? Keep screen off when waiting the incoming call, and try several times.
Thanks

I'm getting the notification. Always did
Strange... It shouldn't be there
Maybe it's because of "floating notifications" in settings. Check it.
By the way I get a similar notification while in another call/Viber call/Skype call even with Samsung dialer.
Google dialer is fugly.
NO, floating notification is to enable the floating popup when minimizing the dialer.
It seems as if when receiving the call with screen off, Google dialer detects the screen is already on, this displaying the full screen + the popup. As a matter of fact sometimes the popup does not show, but when it does (most of the times) it's annoying as hides that caller's nam

I have also had this issue for a while now, and could never figure out how to fix it either. I finally decided to try turning off the "Appear on top" permission setting in the app info section of the phone app. That seems to have done the trick, as now I only get the top pop up when I get an incoming call, then when I answer it goes to the full screen portion like normal. Maybe give that a try and see if it works for you.
