Is there a way to get notifications for 3. party apps if they are closed? Currently I can get notifications from Instagram and others only when I left them opened. Also, I'm using Auto ring app to be able to define important contacts which will be able to access me when phone is set to silent. On all other Android phones this app works like service but on Fire phone it has to be open to work.

Hey, I can't seem to find a way to make whatsapp work with notifications.
When I receive a message, it simply won't show in the notifications bar...
It's all enable at the configurations of the app...
Anyone?

Have you been into the whatsapp setting? There isn't one for the notification bar from what i can see but there is one for pop up, check that and see if it works
I have been using the app since the phone was launched without any issues
Mine work but disappear sometimes, and sometimes Whatsapp crashes when I open certain threads, until they are deleted
I tried searching xda and google and haven't found an answer to this question.
I'm using BLN to make the soft keys flash and that works great, but I'd like it if the screen didn't come on at all when I'm receiving notifications.
Is there an app/tool I can use to turn that off?
Thanks
This has been covered many times but I can see how it would be difficult to search.
The solution is to either use third party texting app (like hand cent) to circumvent the auto screen on or you can do what I did if you want to use stock messaging app and download "SMS popup" from the market, disable stock messaging notifications in settings in your messaging app and setting up your desired notifications through SMS popup instead making sure to disable "screen on for text" feature and any other features you will not be using (I. E. The actual pop up feature)
Also remember to enable led light notification in order to activate bln.
With this method you also will have the added ability to set custom notification tones for specific contacts =]
Please hit thanks if I have helped you!

Ah, yeah I did see someone saying they use handsent. I was looking for a less complicated solution (ie, just turning off the screen wake lol).
I'll try that for now. Thanks
Edit ***Just put on sms popup, and that's the perfect solution. I really wanted to avoid handsent as I don't like that application, and also my current ROM won't allow me to change the stock SMS icon on the main screen (Juggernaut 5.0)
That was the last step I needed and now I finally have my phone perfectly the way I wanted it
How do you turn off Flipboard notifications? I'm tired of this app spamming me every day, I've tried going into the app going to profile, hitting the settings icon and then going to Push Notifications and unchecking all of the boxes but its still sending me the notifications!
Thanks.
Block it with debloater
Goto tablet settings, apps, find flipboard and turn off notifications, simple ☺

Same issue here. Turning off push notifications does not do the trick. Pissing me off, tell you what.

That's the problem, I use it daily, just hate the notifications. I have everything unchecked in settings and still they notify me. Ugh.
If the app is running in background you still get notifications, even with it disabled in settings, only way to stop it is to open recent apps and clear flipboard once youve stopped using it, this seems to happen with alot of apps, i get the same thing with news republic app

Android allowing notifications
The Blocking Mode on Galaxy devices lets you disable the entire notifications on your device, But how to disable notifications on Android for selected apps? follow the instruction to specify which application is allowed to show notifications on the status bar:
1. Open Settings and go to Application Manager (or Apps on some devices)
2. Now you should see the list of installed applications on your device
3. Tap the application you would like to disable notifications
4. Make sure "Show Notifications" is not checked
androidwidgetcenter.com/android-tips/how-to-disable-notifications-on-android-for-selected-apps/
I also cleared data and signed out - some who still use FB may not want to go this far.
I'm so proud of myself. Some months ago, I started searching the Internet to find out how to end those annoying Flipboard notifications. Today, I was out searching, again. Somehow, I accidentally discovered the answer. And you'll flip when you read my solution! (Definitely, no pun intended. )
To disable Flipboard:
1. Go to your notifications.
2. Find a recent Flipboard notification item and touch and hold the notification item.
This action should take you directly to the app's notifications settings. At the very top is the option to disable Flipboard's notifications.
This worked in my Sansung Galaxy S7, but I see no reason it shouldn't work for other devices/users who are disgusted with the annoyance.
Is anyone experiencing push notifications not working? I'm not getting any notifications such as YouTube, Amazon, etc...I set the apps to battery not optimized thinking that would work. I don't know if messenger work with sms as I've been using another phone as my daily driver. What could be wrong? Thanks.

If your talking about something that the phone post to light up when you get some kind of notification, i don't get it either, that can be a bug with Asus, so you may need to bring it up to them when you can (Zentalk website). There is a work around for it, if you look for Screen Notification on google play, that should hopefully help with your problem.

No, I'm not getting the notification at all. Let's say there's a new video on YouTube for someone I subscribe to, I'm not getting the notification that it even happened, yet I have notifications on. For instance with Amazon, when an item is shipped, a notification is "pushed" to the device saying the item has shipped. All these notifications would be located in the top left just don't come. My settings have notifications active so I'm not getting what's wrong.
Could you have enabled dnd mode by accident? Or silent hours? Or blocked the notifications (settings -> apps -> notifications in specific app)?
No issues with GCM, push notifications or regular notifications whatsoever here.

Do not disturb mode is off and the specific apps have notifications turned on. The only push notifications that work so far is Yahoo mail.
I figured it out. It was the auto start manager that was preventing the notifications.
Is there a way of prioritising notifications so that a specific app's notifications will always appear at the top of the list?
I have a video doorbell app which I'd always like to access quickly if the doorbell is pressed.
