[Q] Weather Alert Popup - T-Mobile LG G6 Questions & Answers

Does anyone know how to stop the Weather Alerts from popping up on the G6? I can't figure out how to stop them. We've been getting storms for the past 2 days and they keep popping up on my phone and it's pretty annoying.

Did you install any additional 3rd party weather app? I didn't think the LG weather app does weather alert.
If you want to get rid of the weather app, you can just uninstall it from Settings>Apps. See if the alert continues.

text notifications very erratic

my email notifications work perfectly, but my text notifications are so erratic that I'm considering returning the thing (& I love it).
Sometimes I get the notification right away, sometimes it comes in 5 minutes after the phone gets it and other times I don't get it at all.
Is there any fix for this??
I got my first text on my watch today since I had the watch last week. I really want to keep it, but I want to see what the possible Google watch will be later. Also for your question try restoring your gear and repairing with phone. I'm sadly sending mine back.

Reminder if you get a text or email while phone on, you will not get notification through the Gear.

I have had zero issues with text notifications. Make sure you uninstall any other txt messaging apps. When I had gosms installed I didn't get any notifications. Once I uninstalled it, I get perfect notifications.
If you download the nodded SMS a pk you can have texts come in without turning your screen on. This makes texts appear on the watch instantly cause the screen is off.

Download what??
Sorry about that. In the themes and apps section of your note 3s XDA you can download a modded MMS apk so your screen does not turn on when you get a text message
Issue probably is related to the screen turning on when a text arrives, which could be happening from another SMS app you have downloaded.

I installed that mod version of MMS and now messaging does not show up under notification selections of gear manager so I don't get any messaging notifications at all??

I'm using the stock messaging.
NVM, I got it working
Can you elaborate.

I find that notifications in generally slow; when they appear (usually within 5mins of appearing on phone). My Pebble is instant

I installed this app and set it to not light the screen on receiving a text, now my text notifications are almost instant.
That is great news. Glad I could help

Ongoing/Multiple notifications for certain apps

So I have had all three of the Galaxy Note phones, but I am having this weird problems with some apps and their notifications only on my Note 3. For example, whenever I use Pandora I have 2 notifications constantly running in my status bar. One of them tells me the song that is currently playing and the second one is telling me that Pandora is running. If I go into the app manager and disable the ongoing notification, it takes away both and I want to keep the song notification running.
I have this problem for other apps also, like ReLaunch. I went into the app settings and disabled the ongoing notification, but it is still there. So I went into the app manager again like I did with Pandora to take it away. Now whenever I restart my phone the notification comes back until I uncheck and then recheck the box to disable the notification. This also happens with other apps like some sms apps and Buzz Launcher.
Does anyone else have these problems and/or ways to fix them? I am running stock and not rooted at the moment.
Thanks.

text notifications

I searched Google and seen many with the same issue, but no solution. The issue is getting no text notifications sometimes. I get the text message but no sound or badge number saying a text came in. It's so random I can be texting a person back and fourth. I get 99% of notification a text came in example a sound and visual iindication but a few slip in with out so much of a beep. I did a factory reset, I made messager notification high priority, and I have no other message app. Is it because of Oreo? Is because of Google? Or is just Samsung app broken? No idea, but it kills me.

I've seen the same issue. In addition to pissing me off I have the wife asking why I'm ignoring her messages! I rebooted and that seemed to remove the problem for a large window of time but I've heard of no concrete root cause and solution.

Same here that's why I turned off read notification in messages for TMobile. So the wife does not complain about it.
I read somewhere it might be Google app. I uninstalled updates and disabled it and will report back.
Ok 24 hours later I must say big difference. All text come in and notifications from a Islamic app about prayer times is no longer late. So is it google app? Maybe because I also removed anti virus software. I am add google back on and see what's up.
How sad.... Within 5 mins it started again... It's the google app.
it's usually happen to me when the text app is on-screen, in the foreground. when the app in the background, I get the notification

For me it's both. Phone in my pocket screen off and I get nothing. Only thing that saves me sometimes is my s3 watch. It shows the notification and the phone nothing

Facebook notifications?

Hey people, anyone has Facebook notifications fully working? I mean on the Fb app... I dont get the number badge when I get Likes for instance. Only if I open the app, otherwise its "neat and clean". I only get notified for the new comments and thats kinda it. Do you have all of them working?
PS: please do not tell me to activate notifications, or the "show the badge with numbers" from the homescreen settings, because all are active, I am not a novice user .
Thanks!
I have that issue as well. Also, Flipboard widget never refreshes properly. This happened on my S9+ as well. I wonder if setting up the phone connected to previous phone copying screwed something up.
Neh man, it didnt screw anything up...unfortunately samsung screwed smth up... I have to use Microsoft Launcher, which can be set up to act and look exactly like Samsung launcher, BUT gives me notifications for Fb and also badges dont disappear when you clear the notification bar. But I dont like to use 3rd party bull..it, instead of what the phone comes with... and I thought maybe someone has a solution or found out smth new...
Try to use different launcher as said above. But my suggestion is to turn off notifications and backup updates for facebook at all - it will save up to 4 hours for the battery
Coming from the S7 Edge, I don't truly care for this but I didn't have this since S7E and I just noticed it's not showing on my Note9 either. Might be Samsung UI related? I have noticed every now and then I do get the notification number on Messenger but not the Facebook app.
