[BUG] Sometimes the led doesn´t blink

Hi, I have noticed that sometimes when I have a notification, the led doesn´t blink at all, and sometimes it does. I have official IMM76I, and I have noticed it mainly with Whatsapp, but it can be because is the only program I use with the phone silenced in my work.
Have you noticed that?

Where are we talking of color option?

I have noticed it even with GTalk and many other apps. Yesterday, I was playing when a notification sounded. Without turning on the screen, I kept watching the phone but the LED never blinked. I turned on the screen and I had a GTalk message.
Nothing else have noticed that problem?

I have had this problem as well on my VZW nexus on AOKP m5 and earlier versions as well. It doesn't happen all of the time, but maybe 10-15% of the time with SMS and at least 90% of the time with gmail.
I can see a gmail come in on the notification light on my Xoom, but nothing happens on my phone, I'll check the phone 5 min later and the email is there but no notification.

You mean there is not the notification icon on the upper bar?
My problem is different, I have the notification icon, but the led doesn´t blink

Notices this as well with various apps. Native as well as 3rd party. Doesn't bother me that much just makes the OS less 'perfect'.

I ask in XDA to know if anyone else have noticed this, or is a problem with my phone.
Also, I have reported it to Google, here is the link:

Have you tried the light flow app? Maybe it would fix the problem and give you more customization too.

Thanks for the idea, I have not tried the light flow app; but I have asked in another forums and people with than app also have noticed the problem.
Anyway, the objetive is to find the bug and report it to google, so they can fix it in the next update for our Gnex

Anyone else with the problem?

Is the option checked in each program? Those who flash rooms and rebuild everything might forget an app or two that does not have the option on by default.

I've noticed from time to time as well... But the other thing is that even when it does blink, it often shuts off fairly shortly afterwards.
It would be nice if there was options to ensure that it blinks and keeps blinking until you acknowledge it.

Light Flow works perfectly for me. Never had an issue with it not blinking or blinking incorrectly.
I use it as not all the apps I have on my phone have LED light functionality natively, and Light Flow takes care of that.

Yes, because the problem is not always, and the same app can work, and not work sometimes..

No notifications

It says I'm connected bit I'm not seeing any notifications anymore. I'm puzzled why it stopped. Anybody else have this issue?

Muted? Airplane mode?

If muted there will be a bell with a slash on it. Slide down while on the watch face to mute/unmute.
Airplane mode, say "OK Google, Settings" or tap the face, slide up, second from the last, third from the top.

I had to do a reset and it fixed itself. I think the issue was going out of range multiple times with the htc one m8. I had this same issue with my sony smartwatch 2. It would just eventually not connect anymore and would have to repair. With this watch it had a false connect even though I would unpair it thru the settings and set up the watch in the android wear app. It still didn't do anything. A reset of the watch would fix the issue with the resetup of the watch. I think this is an issue. If the device goes out of range multiple times with a connect and disconnect it eventually stops connecting then reports a false connect.

I've woken up to this problem this morning as well. Airplane mode is not on.. It's not Muted. Just doesn't work. Did a reset on the watch.. still nothing. Phone is a Note 3
Edit* Power cycled my phone and now they work again.. weird

Also, make sure under settings->security on the phone that you have notification access enabled for wear.

The Moto 360 doesn't make noise. On my phone, notifications still act the same with the sound and what not. The watch face for me turns on and vibrates. I have an LG G3

Just had to reset again cause it stopped receiving notifications but showed connected.

When you lose connection with your 360, if you open the Wear app on your phone, does it still say connected? If so, try and reconnect with Android Wear to your 360, does it not reconnect? (This is happening to me)
Try reconnecting on Wear, your 360 may say that you've lost connection (Cloud with a slash icon). Try reconnecting again from the Wear app, if that doesn't work, try repairing your 360, that should work. (4/5 times it works for me)
Resetting does seem to work as well, I did it yesterday and went 16 hours without a disconnect, previous day was 7 in 6 hours. But this morning I walked away from my 360 with my phone and lost connection and it started disconnecting again.
Q: What ROM are you using with your One?

Just got mine today and it's disconnected twice on me already. Although it says its connected I don't get notifications. Hope we can get some insight into this.

Repeated Double beeps during calls?

When making calls with this phone I get a quick double beep during any phone call I make - I thought it was a minute minder type of thing but it's not occuring at the minute mark, though at apparently regular intervals. Anyone else have this? It's driving me nuts!

I've noticed this as well, also while streaming music...I think it's when the phone bounces between LTE and Hspa?

It's a text notification. I had the same problem, took me a while to realize what it was.

I have same problem with beep but no any text notification pops up.

It is all notifications. FB, text, whatsapp, all of them.

What do you mean?

I noticed this to but on my LG watch sport. I thought it might be because of me running the beta. Normally it means I'm getting a notification but I'm not getting anything. Weird!

Every time your phone gets a notification while you are on a call you will get the 2 beeps. Hopefully they give us the option to turn this off soon.

Oh snap! That's what this is?! What an idiotic "feature". Thank you for sharing this discovery - I was worried that I was missing a minute minder setting somewhere or my calls were being recorded or something, though unlikely.

Notification issues

Two Verizon Note 8s in this house. Neither one is handling notifications well. We're coming from two Note 4s that never had any issues with notifications.
Issues:
1. I have twitter, facebook, gmail installed and am using the Verizon messenger app. My phone generally makes sounds when I get a notification, but the notification light only blinks every once in a while. I don't use AOD, so I rely on the notification light to tell me when I have notifications. There have been times when my phone has been idle for an hour or two where I don't get notifications until I turn on the screen.
2. Wife's phone. She gets a lot more notifications than I do. She is having problems with notifications not coming in after the phone sits idle for a few hours. Once the phone screen is turned back on, all of the notifications come rushing in and she gets a ton of alert sounds in a row.
I have not been able to figure out what's going on with this. I checked to make sure that do not disturb is turned off. Neither one of us use it.
Is this a software issue, or something that we're not doing correctly? On Note 4, notifications just worked. There wasn't anything special needed.
Thanks

It may be a software issue. this affects the S8/S8+ also. More and more reports on notifications not coming through especially text.
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk

So, if it is on the S8/S8+, then it's unlikely that they'll ever do anything useful to fix it?
Notifications are the one thing that I hate about this phone. They're completely unreliable and I have to turn on my phone to check and make sure that I didn't have anything come in. It's the one thing that makes me miss my Note 4.

I have this problem since Nougat on all my devices. For me it was the power saving features, forgot exactly which one, but it basically shut down the apps totally until I woke the phone up.
Just an edit to my post. When I pickup or awake the device all my notifications come through at once , is that what you are talking about ?
If you find a solution let me know.

Yes. In my case, it is not always picking up notifications for GMail. I tried to add GMail to the list of unmonitored apps, and it was not available. I'm not sure what else I can do.

Hello mate, it happens to my Galaxy tab s2 on Android 7 often. As soon as I open it out of standby all telegram messages pop over. Weird thing is , it doesn't always behave that way as I can hear my Telegram and what's app notifications on that sometimes when using same account etc on the Note 8.

Well, it's annoying as hell. My Note 4 never did this. I could always rely on getting my notifications.
Makes me wonder if I should use the regular email app for Gmail, and then dump the GMail app.

Luckily for me the Gmail account isn't my primary email address. Have you whitelisted some apps from power saving to see if it changes the notification behavior?

Probably except as it's a built in Google app.
I guess that leaves you with the option of what you mentioned earlier. Add the Gmail account to the existing email app. Bummer.

It's on. It notifies sometimes, but if the phone has been in standby for a while, it stops. It definitely seems like a doze issue.

Same problems here
Notifications hit or miss. I have disabled all the power saving options, disabled all the restrictions on the individual apps, disabled all the data restrictions on the apps. Everything I could think of. Once the phone has been sitting for about 10 minutes on the desk, it seems to just go to sleep. Nothing comes through until I pick it up and start doing something with it. Then the notifications all seem to come in at once. This seems to hold true for any messaging app, email, etc. This is a horrible problem.

My wife is having the same issue, but on a Sprint Note 8. When she opens her phone in the morning she get's a bunch of notifications pouring in from several different apps. So since y'all are VZW and we're Sprint it has to be specific to the phone and not the network. this has me worried because it's text messages and everything if she hasn't touched the phone in an hour or more.

Same problem here.
Note 8 Germany DBT - no branding.
Since last week notifications wont come through when the device is idling. I have paired it with a Garmin Fenix 5x and set it to pass the important notifications via Smart Notifications to the watch.
This no longer works and I missed some important notifications. I have to change my behaviour to regularly check my phone and this is very annoying!
Stock firmware with latest patches.

Incoming calls dont show in MB4

After the latest update firmware, incoming calls dont show up in the band. Have to manually close and open bluetooth once on a while to get this work

Isn't Mi Fit being killed in the background? MIUI/EMUI are especially "effective" in this matter.

To be more specific, when i go out of my phone range and then come back thats when it happens. Other functions like message notifications work as predicted. The same problem goes for the unlock via band function. To.fix this i have to manually open and close bluetooth which is very annoying.

I did not notice this, but I do not really go out of the phone range Sounds like a bug, so hopefully gets fixed in next update. Do not forget to submit a bug report from Mi Fit app.

The strange thing is that even if i dont go out of range and have my phone with all time, eventually will happen the same thing at some point
