I'm running CM 6.1 Stable. I have two apps installed that I have configured to provide me with background notifications: reddit is fun and Foursquare. Reddit is supposed to check for new messages hourly and Foursquare us supposed to check for friend updates every 10 minutes. Neither app is functioning in this regard.
Has anyone else had an issue like this? Is there by chance some setting that prevents 3rd party background notifications from working that I may have enabled by accident? Gmail notifications are still working.
I checked my system log for errors or anything unusual while enabling or disabling the Foursquare notification feature and there was nothing that I could see.
Do apps need to have a service running to provide this sort if functionality, or can the Android system simply let apps schedule periodic tasks? I ask because I don't see any services running for these two apps, and if they are required, that would be a problem.
try moving it back to ur phone not ur sdcard......

Hi XDA Developers Community!
Recently I noticed calendar notification settings (of both S Calendar and Google Calendar app) cleared upon power off of my Samsung Galaxy SIII. I'm trying to turn off all S Calendar notifications while leaving on all Google Calendar notifications (prefer this app).
Main questions:
-Has anyone else experienced this?
-Does anyone know if S Calendar and Google Calendar notification settings are tied to one another?
Samsung technical support is suggesting a factory reset**. As I want to avoid a hard reset, I tried to troubleshoot on my own and noted the below scenario highlighting notification setting status of both S Calendar and Google Calendar before/after power off:
S Calendar:
Before powering down/or resetting Galaxy SIII:
>Settings
Under "Event notification"
>Set alerts & notifications
>"Off" (radio button selected)
After powering down/or resetting Galaxy SIII:
>Settings
Under "Event notification"
>Set alerts & notifications
>"Status bar notification" (radio button selected)
Google Calendar app
Before powering down/or resetting Galaxy SIII:
>Settings
>General settings
Under "Reminder settings"
>Notifications (checked)
>Pop-up notification (checked)
After powering down/or resetting Galaxy SIII:
>Settings
>General settings
Under "Reminder settings"
>Notifications (unchecked)
>Pop-up notification (unchecked)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Would appreciate if anyone has any insight into this!
**After contacting Samsung technical support, this is what I was told:
-Tech support initially said that it has to do with removing the battery and said that Google Calendar + S Calendar notification settings are linked to one another.
-(After telling tech support it happened w/o removing the battery and just powering off), technician rescinded original statement
-Then said, should not be happening and suggested a factory reset.
Thanks,

Same problem here.
Identical as written above, but :
After powering down/or resetting Galaxy SII:
Google calendar:
>Settings
>General settings
Under "Reminder settings"
>Notifications (checked) typo?
>Pop-up notification (unchecked)
S Calendar:
Notifications sounds are reset to "On time" sound after a reboot.
Google calendar:
The notification sound is unchanged.
But after a second reboot the Google Calendar sound has set itself the same as the S Calendar ("On time").
so, after each reboot/power off:
S Calendar:
I should manually set the status bar notifications to off to prevent double view in the status view.
Google Calendar:
I have to redo my sound settings because Google calendar takes over the S Calendar settings.
My Google calendar Status bar notifications looks like off but they appear on the staus bar.
I do not change/check them.

Huib, so it seems like it's not an isolated issue to my device and a factory reset may not be the solution. May just be the interference between S Calendar and Google Calendar perhaps? I wonder if deleting/reinstalling Google Calendar might help the cause.
It's just a hassle to turn off notifications on S Calendar after a reboot. I have multiple batteries so usually after recharging one, I'll switch to another...

I already did a delete/reinstall. no difference.
After that had some problems with sync settings: S calendar was empty. But maybe I should have waited.
Played with the sync settings, reinstalled Google but do not remember what I did to make it working again.
So, sound settings not solved.
It must have to do with the samsung/google combi.
Strange that there are few complaints.

I will have to see if my sounds are effected--to date, have not noticed it. Hopefully others will see this thread and contribute their experiences!

I have the same issue here. I hoped the JB 4.1 update would fix, but it didn't. I did factory reset, and that didn't fix it either.
* Samsung Galaxy S3 on Sprint
Any news on this ? I have the same problem and it is annoying.
New version of Google Calendar didn't solve it eiher.
Same exact issue here. I have the Sprint Galaxy S III with Jelly Bean and both S Calendar and Google Calendar installed. Hopefully Samsung or Google will address this in a future update.
I'm seeing the exact same issue here on an I9300.
The google calendar/S Planner "default reminder time" changes from "off" to "15 mins" every time I reboot the phone.
Does anyone have solution yet?
International I9300 and stock 4.1.2 NEE here and annoyed with the same problem. If anyone finds a solution please write it here or to the International I9300 forum. I'm mostly interested in finding a way to prevent duplicates in notifications. I have found out that my 'Show week numbers' setting in Google Calendar gets reset to unticked after a reboot.
Anyone tried to disable Samsung Calendar altogether?

SCH-i535 Same issue. I assumed it was S-Cal and froze it, but the Google Calendar still resets on a reboot. I don't get it!!!
Discovered the problem today on my official 4.1.2 S2 and the only way to avoid duplicate notifications is go to application manager --> "All" tab --> S planner and uncheck the option show notifications. Thus, even if notification settings are active again after every reboot, they won't show up.
But the problem with the settings on google calendar after reboot, still remains unsolved...I am afraid (didnt try) that disabling SPlanner will cause Google calendar to malfunction as well as it is obvious that they are strongly tied together. Same thing happens (tried it) if you disable sync on SPlanner calendars - Google calendars do not get synced as well...
I am pretty sure that the problem exists on all S3/S2 stock JB users but it's not on the talk, since noone cares about such things, including Google or Samsung to opt for a solution in a future update...
Pfff,
So no use to upgrade my Galaxy S2 from JB.
The strangest thing is, that we seem to be the only in the world.
Same issue on my Sprint SIII, haven't been able to find a solution.
I'm experiencing this problem as well.
After reboot setting in both google calendar and s planner are being reset to defaults.
One setting that was not mentioned here is 'first day of the week', is also being reset.

My only solution on the Galaxy 2 was removing googles calendar .
Now a restart does not change anything.
I can live with it.

Removing Google calendar worked for me.
S planner is a bit clunky but full of features.

Yep, the only "solution" As you cannot remove S Planner.

What's the advantage of using s planner over other calendar apps?

Solved!
Today I flashed my S2 with a newer stock JB, moving from LSD to LSW.
Happily I discovered that after 2 restarts, all notifications settings I chose on both calendar apps remained intact so like the thread author, I unchecked all S Planner notification settings and now fully use google calendar which I prefer too.
Have a nice weekend everybody
I did a huge update on my phone (from 4.0.3 w/ Sense 4 all the way to the latest 4.1.1 w/ Sense 4+, about 4 or 5 updates total), so I don't know which update brought up this bug.
With the Productivity lock screen style, not all the sections work.
Working:
Weather
Calendar events
Social feeds
Not working:
Calls
Messages
Mails
By not working, I mean they simply will never show on my lock screen regardless of how many notifications I have.
No custom ROM. Latest JB 4.1.1 update. Yes, I did go to the settings and make sure these notifications were enabled.
Well, I guess I fixed it.
Calls: Open Phone. Settings. Enable "Phone notification preview" (last check box).
Messages: Open Messages. Settings. Notifications. Enable "Notification preview" (last check box of the Received messages section).
When I got the phone, these settings were enabled by default. After updating to JB, then resetting to factory settings, these were disabled by default.
Hi,
I have updated my P6 to B707 international and since then, I can't get the notifications from any App.
For example, if someone sends me a message via whatsapp or viber, I don't get it, altought I have internet connection and non of my apps are restricted in the notification manager!
So I have to first open whatsapp or viber and then these apps get the messages.
Just imagine, everyday, I have to open my messenger apps like fb messenger, whatsapp, viber, telegram, ... every few minutes to see if someone sent me something!
It's really bothering
P.S. today I updated to B708 and I still have the same problem. :silly:
and sorry to post it here, I wanted to post it on Help & Troubleshooting ...
You need to set those apps to run in the background (Settings > Protected Apps), as well as make them startup at boot (Settings > Startup manager).
That should fix it.
In the pull down shortcuts there is an icon for auto-sync. Make sure it is enabled. I was scratching my head for a while too.

Anyone else having issue with Facebook notifications?
Every other app works fine - Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn..etc.
I checked my app settings and notification settings within Android and everything seems to be in order. Even re-installed the Facebook app and still no dice.
When I open the app I see I have notifications, however my phone isn't notifying me of anything related to Facebook. I have open the app to see the notifications within the app.
Anyone else having the same problem?
I am on Pixel 2 XL 8.1 stock.
Did you disable background activity for the app?

No, it is active.
Having the same issue. Also there are times the app doesn't recognize that the phone is connected to WiFi. The app continues to update the feed, but the videos won't auto play until I turn off WiFi then back on.
Have you ever cleared the cache and data under the Google Framework Services trying to push the OTA update? It is said that would break GCM things.
