Question Notifications - Google Pixel 7

I just need any help. I'm trying to figure out why with apps like Snapchat and Facebook. I'm not getting their designated notification sounds. I go into the app settings and it says the notifications are on but then I go to my phone settings and for those particular apps it's set on my phone's default notification which is really annoying. It doesn't even have a app provided toggle that I could even turn on. Any help would be appreciated.

I had an issue with Instagram's notifications. Even though looking through the apps notifications they were all on, I was not getting any at all. It turned out that I did the Google transfer of apps for my old phone to my new phone, and that was why. What I did was clear all cache and data, and then start over by signing in and allowing notifications when the pop-up showed. I didn't get the pop-up the first time I open the app after the transfer, so I'm 99.9% sure that's why. Try clearing cache and data, and then start over by signing in like you just downloaded the app.

Thank you so much! I kind of figured that out as well because I uninstalled it then reinstalled it and everything was fine after that.

Touchpad not getting app notifications (FB, Hangouts etc) on CM 10.1

I'm using the latest cm-10.1-20130730-UNOFFICIAL-tenderloin and it was freshly installed on a brand new touchpad (i had one sitting in a box for ages(
However, with everything working on it, i find that the notifications don't seem to work.
for eg, i don't get notifications when i get a new fb message or a google hangouts message.
i have to open the app and manually refresh it for it to get the new data.
any ideas on what i can do?

I would go into Settings and take a look at the Accounts. Verify sync is on for the accounts in question.
Could also go into the Apps area as well. I believe there is a show notifications box that you can check
for the two apps.

show notifications is ticked on for both apps already.
it seems that when it's in the lock screen nothing comes through, but when i unlock it, i get a mass of notifications all at once.
almost seems like it's blocking data when the screen is locked but i can't find any power profiles etc to fix this...
any ideas?

Alot of devices and ROMS will have Wifi turn off while sleeping to avoid battery drain.
Go into Advanced settings for Wi-fi and adjust the Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep setting.

[Q] Gmail Force Closing

I'm stock 5.0.1 and far to often when I open Gmail I just get a white screen and have to wait until I get the message to Wait or Close the app.
I've tried wiping data, but it still happens.
Anyone else get this?
go to the main phone settings, apps, gmail.. now clear the data for gmail. or you can try uninstalling it then reinstalling.
Thanks, as I said though, I've done this

Facebook messenger notification missing

So recently, i stopped getting notification from facebook messenger standalone app. I've tried everything including clearing data/cache, uninstalling/reinstalling older versions APK, resetting app's preferences (data usage, notification preferences), checking notification option "on" in every possible menu and factory resetting my phone. I do receive notification from facebook, whatsapp, snapchat and kaokaotalk, but just not the messenger app. I can see the message count on the icon, and that is the only way i can tell i have a message. I have read many posts, but no one seems to be able to describe the problem clearly. I think the problem could have been derived from greenify/clean master, but i don't remember hibernating messenger or any other push services, however even if i did, i factory reseted my phone ... Any help would be appreciated. I am currently using note 5.

Issues with apps stopping

Has anyone else been having issues with apps stopping on their XZ1C? I've been having trouble with Google Photos and Google Connectivity Services stopping a lot. I've tried the cache clearing and data clearing tricks as well as uninstalling and reinstalling Connectivity Services, but I routinely get the notification pop-up telling me one or the other has stopped or keeps stopping.
Photos seems to be stopping most when I use the app and especially when I try to share a photo via text or email from Photos itself. I don't have an issue if I send a MMS from Messenger.
Google Connectivity Services seems to stop the most when I use the GPS and am on LTE. It does occasionally stop when on WiFi or if going between WiFi and LTE. I question the benefits of even having that app if it stops more than anything. Perhaps it's just an issue with Oreo? I never had issues with apps stopping with my Pixel, but that was running Nougat.
Thanks.
Instagram does crash to me very often. I think they didn't optimized the app very well for Android 8
Edit. War robots just crashed too
I see it time to time too

My Google Photos app started behaving the same way immediately after I shared an album by way of SMS.
I cleared the cache, but that did not work. I reinstalled the app and the crashing stopped, but it has crashed once more the following day, but only one time.
How do you uninstall a core app like Photos? When I tap and hold, it does not give me to ability to uninstall it.
J-san, to the best of my knowledge you can't uninstall it, however if you long press on the app icon, and select App Info, you should be able to disable it. This will uninstall any updates to the app that have occurred since the phone was new.
Thanks much! I'll give that a try.
Nice, I thought I was the only one.

Question Voicemail with U1 firmware, double notifications

Hey guys, kinda new to the U1 FW side of things. When I got the phone, U1 was the first thing I did. Upon setup, I did the whole voicemail setup etc using the Phone/dialer. A week or so later, I downloaded the T-Mobile Visual Voicemail as I like being able to have faster access/options to voicemail. However, now I get a notification from both the "Phone" app and VVM app.... how do I change the setting on the "Phone" app to stop?
Thanks
You can remove from the Notifications of the Phone app only the option for Voicemail.
Or (don't know if it works, but it's worth a try) force stop the Phone app and clear cache and data.
Sadly it's greyed out
How about clearing the data and cache of the Phone app? Maybe together with a restart?

I can try, but I think it's on the "server side"... either through T-Mobile or Samsung
Phone - Settings (three dots) - Voicemail - Notification : Silent. Maybe also disable App icon badges & Lock screen: Don't show notifications.
I don't know if Minimize notifications is of any help.
