Probably not the first to ask this - anyone know why I get multiple notifications? Sometimes I get 3-4 notifications for one text or appointment. When I look at my phone there's only one thing showing so its just the notification. Curious...
depend if the app on your phone (re)send notification regularly ? some app like tasker send for example "no active profil" every few minutes but you just see ONE notification on the phone.

Thanks. I only use stock apps for text, email, and calendar. The dupes are usually for text and I can get up to three sometimes.

I am hoping someone can tell me what is causing this notification. I get two different notifications every time I get a sms/mms message and I actually have to click clear to remove one of them. the other one goes away when i press it. I need to get rid of the one with the yellow arrow, I am pretty sure it is an app doing this but i cant figure out which one and its driving me crazy heh. Thank you.
Do you have handcent or chomp, etc. You gotta turn off stock notifications if you are using one of those.
do you have another sms app installed? like handcent sms? in the application settings there will be an option to display notifications, or just uninstall it.
there is also a setting in the default sms app that has an option to show or not to show a notification icon, but since it seems like your using the default one you want to keep it on..
I dont think I have any sms apps installed, although I have been sick the past week and playing with my phone while on pain killers so its possible but I dont think so. I want to keep the default sms notification not the other.
edit: I for sure do not have chomp or handcent installed.
never mind guys.. I found out its a side effect of beautiful widgets part 2. uninstalled it and its gone.
Seeing as that the Captivate does not have a notification LED, it sometimes becomes a problem noticing new notifications. I just want to know if there is some kind of application that would flash the screen for a few seconds or so when the phone receives a new notification. I remember my iPhone doing that and it would be cool to see Android phones doing the same.
Look in the development forum for captivate, there is a thread doing this exact thing
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
No, I know about the red dot on the screen thing. I dont really need that and besides, I believe it kills battery. I just want some app to turn the screen on for a few seconds when I get a notification.
Maybe go to the noled thread and see if he'll add that feature
my screen does flash when I get a message. It pops up in the notification bar and shows two lines of the message then shuts off.

It does this when it is sleeping?
I just tested it. When its locked and the screen is off it revives itself when I get and MMS or SMS. For emails it does not.
handcent sms will do it when you adjust the settings for the popup menu
Oh, maybe it only works for SMS and MMS notifications only. I would like the screen to flash on for every notification (Gmail, Feedr, AIM, etc). Kind of like how the iPhone worked with push notifications.
I spend all day in front of my PC with my phone sitting on a cradle nearby. Ok, not ALL day. I go to meetings, lunch, etc. I also have a Pebble smartwatch.
I use MightyText to be able to text from my PC, which now will send notifications from the phone to my PC. I've played around with PushBullet which does the same thing. On my Pebble, I also have the Awear app, which shows me notifications from my phone.
What I'm looking for is some way to synchronize all of that. If I get a notification on my phone, I love that it will show on my PC and my watch as well, but I hate having to dismiss it or mark it as read in three different places. Does some app or combination of apps exist that allows this?

For me, PushBullet dismisses everywhere when I dismiss it on my PC or on my phone. Maybe double check the PushBullet settings on your PC and your devices for "Notification forwarding".
/edit: Sometimes an uninstall and re-install on your device does the trick.
Thanks, I'll give it another try. Does it just dismiss the notifications, or will it actually mark, for example, a text message as read?

If you respond to it, it gets marked as read and disappears from your notification drawer. If you just dismiss it, it will remain unread and the icon will still be visible in your notification drawer. That's the behaviour I get, at least.
When I get texts and go to the Notification screen the text is displayed twice. How do I stop this? I don't get duplicates in the Messenging app itself. Just the Notification.

Do you have 2 different Messaging apps installed. Check the Gear app on the phone, and see which apps are sending Notifications to the watch.

Hello everybody,
I got my device yesterday and i am still trying to sort things and settle down.
I have one question which is driving me nuts.
In my previous phones (latest being OnePlus 6t), i could make the apps (such as instagram and WhatsApp) not to show the message but only the notification badge and how many things i am missing (such as 2 messages, 2 chats or 2 messages 1 chat).
On S22 Ultra, i can hide the context on AOD but the context is always seen on while the phone is unlocked/on homescreen.
Would appreciate if you can help me solve this issue.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Press the notification till you see "settings" menu. Select the notification type you want (push the text, for ex. "new messages for sim 1") Than select "silent" and enable app icon badges. You should be ok.
Nope didn't work. Still can see the message there.
In Settings>Notifications> Lock screen (Display), do you have 'hide content' set?

Nope,
This was how my old phones used to act;
If the screen was off, it would wake briefly, show the whatsapp icon and go back to turned off screen.
On the lock screen, when i wake the phone, it would show the whatsapp icon and that is all.
On home screen, when i scroll down, it would show whatsapp icon and number of chats and messages but not the details of the messages (like 2 chats, 3 messages).
But wouldn"t give details like "Nicole: How are you doing"
My new S22 Ultra acts like below;
On lock screen, it acts correct. Only whatsapp image pops when i receive a message.
When it is awake and when it is on home screen, it pops the whole message for me to read. And when i pull down the notification pane, the whole message is there for me to read.
I have fingerprint activated on my whatsapp.
Now, if anybody can read and reply to the whatsapp message by pulling down the notification menu, what the hell is the reason of a fingerprint layer on whatsapp entry...
They can simple send one message to me and they can see whole of the newly received messages.
As well as, this causes the above mentioned issue. Where people can read delicate messages when i am showing something else in a different app...

Yes i do.
That hides it only when phone is locked.
Let me try to post some pics of what i am trying to explain.
Alright got the pics.
At first, you can see the lock screen acts as it should. Doesn't show the context/content
But on the second screen, where it is notification menu scrolled down, the message can be read.
And the same happens if i am doing something with the phone when the message is received.
So, people looking at my screen can see the message.
Please also note fingerprint login is also enabled for my whatsapp. So this totaly kills the point of fingerprint log in.
And when i figure this out, i will also need to hide other notifications as well.
When i receive an email, i will show how it was on my other phone's notification panel.
Since whatsapp doesn't allow multiple devices at once (cellular) i can't show with whatsapp message.
I hope this gives a general idea of what i am trying to sort out.
And here how it was on my old phone. It shows content hidden on notification menu for the apps i have closed preview of.
Whatsapp, instagram etc.
The reason there are 2 separate outlooks is one is a calendar alert and other is actual email.
If i had like 5 mails and no alerts, it would show as one outlook and say 5 emails with one notification.
you can also see that instagram is also hidden as content.

I know it won't fix everything... but just Messages and Whatsapp in the meantime.

At least i sorted the WhatsApp.
Having 2 messaging app doesn't help.
One doesn't have the options you showed, but it also have the block/blacklist option.
I also need to find where the app lock is on Samsung. Where i can fingerprint lock the apps i choose to.

I presume that's your Android messaging version there, cause i only use the Samsung one.
You'll find it in Play Store
I need help!
One thing I had hate on my 22 Ultra is the combined notification sounds. I want to separate system sounds, text messages sounds and app sounds. Nothing seems to be working. It all comes back to this screen and it's all combined. I need away to separate them.
Any help?

Go to Apps section.
Select the app you want to configure.
Click on Notifications.
Notification categories.
You will be able to select individual sounds for everything separately.
Some will be trial and error tho
