Does anyone know how to get rid of notifications you don't want. After I flashed the international ftf I started getting notifications from some app site. I hate getting a notification beep that is usually my email and it is only one of those.

It depends on which app you are referring to...You should be able to go into the "unwanted" app and inside the settings menu it would give you an option about notifications.
Another way is if you don't want any of them to "beep" is turn off the notifications sound in the phone settings

I don't know which app it is. It is just advertisements for a new website to download apps from.
Never saw that when I switched to the international firmware. Did it start doing that before you installed anything else?

Yes it did. I have found out it is from xapush.com. I have no idea where I got it. I haven't installed anything new but I have been deleting any app I am not using trying to get rid of it.
I think I may have solved this. Once I figured out it was xapush.com I did a search on XDA. There is another app called Airpush Detector which can find which apps are using Airpush and a few other similar "advertising" schemes. It turns out it was an app for Olympic information that I download two weeks ago. I just didn't use it until right after I flashed the International firmware.
Hey everyone, has anyone else been having issues with Gmail notifications not working when the phone is locked or asleep. The notifications come in a few moments after I turn on the phone, but they don't come in when the phone is asleep. I checked every setting and it seems like it might be a hardware or software issue with the Note 4 that is preventing the notifications to come in during sleep. Anyone have any ideas as to how I can fix this. This was never an issue with my Note 3 and I matched every setting to it and it all seems to be the same.

all those are setup right, i suspect this is some bug with gmail's latest update or lolipop issue but still testing. I do know I'm not the only one

Update, i called samsung and had them create a ticket, the rep said they have not heard of this issue at all. Long story short if they come up with a fix it will be after 5.1.1 which carriers like ATT have not pushed out and that means it could be a year or longer before it is resolved. They do not work directly with end customers so we are out of luck basically. Frankly for me this is deal breaker and I might be returning my phone and going back to blackberry.
Visual voicemail keeps notifying me of a "mandatory update," which keeps failing when I try to update. The notification keeps popping up. On MOAR 2.1b. Anyone else have this issue?

Is it a Samsung app? Does it want to update from Galaxy Apps. If so it wants to update to the 64 bit version because this is a port from a 64 bit phone.
You can go to app manager and turn off it's notifications.
Hope that works for you. Never tried it myself.

No, it's just part of the bloatware added by Sprint. I'm wary of turning off notifications as it notifies me of pending voicemail. May just use the Xposed NotifyClean module to turn off just that particular notification unless someone can suggest a fix. Thx

Personally before I flash a rom VVM is one of the things I remove. Damn notifications drive me crazy. Missed call notifications are enough to alert me to a possible voicemail. I use the old stock voicemail app. It's disabled by default so I enable (defrist) it for 1 tap access to voicemail . Just my preference.
Recently, out of nowhere, I started getting "Huawei video" notifications. Does anyone know how to get rid of them? I've gone through the settings, but couldn't find it. Thanks.

Try looking for the culprit app then go to notifications and disable.

Thanks. Yes, that's what I normally do. But I had checked the apps list twice before posting my question, and it was not listed there. I checked again just now, and wouldn't you know it: there it was in the apps list. I must be getting senile

Never had an issue with this app doing this before, but here we are. I've made sure my number was correct, and even added the Messages app to MagiskHide (which I've never had to do before). It still is stuck. Eventually it gives up trying to verify, but tapping the button just repeats the same issue again. Any ideas?

It's really annoying I've had this before. What I did I'd clear data cache in the messages app restart phone then do same again delete data cache then open messages app and try again. If that fails then you have to turn chat off for 7 days don't try turning chat on within the 7 days otherwise it resets to 7 days again. It's a right pain in the but.
I wish I had a answer for you. I was having the same issue on stock, switching to global, switching to eu, etc. Just a couple nights ago I installed magisk and no modules and left my phone alone for a bit (maybe a hour?), When I picked it back up I had 10 encrypted messages I couldn't read come in from a friend that must have came in over the past couple weeks. It was just random.

Seven days?
Seems excessive. How/where did you get this length of time?

I tried Dale's suggestion, clearing data and cache and rebooting the phone. After a minute it popped up the message "enabling chat features, we'll let you know when it's ready." Checked the settings 15 minutes later, and it said "Trying to verify..." STILL but the button to manually verify was usable.
This sucks.
This had happened to me ever since I got the phone and since my carrier is Verizon, It didn't work right out the gate and tried so many different solutions.
then I read that it could still be linked to your old phone so i put my sim card back and then turned off features and then popped it back to the OP and then just left the messages app run in the background and then it suddenly said chat features enabled.
I don't know if this will help you but it worked for mine.

I turned it off on my old device (doesn't have service anyway). Still no dice. Ugh!!
I've had multiple issues with apps not sending OTP codes or being able to log in completely, and I even think I've had the same issue you are having when I had "dns.adguard.com" set as my private dns setting. Also, if you use AdAway, that could cause the issue. For some reason I have to disable AdAway to use the Amazon app. Weird.

If you have some sort of vpn running, try disabling it and activating chat features. For me it won't work until I turn my vpn off.
is Google carrier services app is up to date on your phone?

Oh yep, in fact I had another thread about that. Turns out the new AdAway seems to inadvertently block a lot of things. Try adding "*amazon*" (without quotation marks) to the whitelist. PayPal was another I needed to add to the whitelist. I also added Google to see if it'd work for this, but nah... No such luck.

Thanks for the Amazon tip! I was trying to figure it out for the longest time. Even tried the hard way of adding it a long time ago. Just got used to disabling it to use the app or using Amazon through a browser.
It always takes a minute for my chat features to be enabled. Whenever I get a new phone, I always get the message saying "chat features are unavailable for this device" then after a few hours/days, the pop up says that they're ready. I think I leave Messages open in the background. Never had to disable it on the previous device. T-Mobile user here.

Sure thing, glad I could help. If anything, though, you should thank @terlynn4 for that whitelisting suggestion.
In my case this has been going on for a good few days. I've done websearches and researched all the possible causes and solutions I could find, but nothing has worked in my case. Yet. I think the main issue is that I'm not getting the authorization code that Google sends via a short-code service text or whatever those are called.

Usually when I don't receive the code, it's because AdAway or private DNS settings as stated before. But since you're not using any of those, I'm not sure what else would be preventing from sending the code. Is there any way you can use the Messages for Web feature, bring up your messages on PC, send the code that way and see if it comes up on the web?
I had the exact same issue as you, the issue was that Verizon still had my old phone associated with my account. Verizon support asked my for my iccid (16 digit number physically printed on the sim card), and after they associated it with my new phone I received the backlog of all the sms from short codes that I had missed and rcs verified after 15 minutes and a reboot.

I had the exact same issue on verizon, but with a globel version. Wouldnt recognize the phone at all. After calling, they pushed me to tech support. Because the phone isnt in their system, the guy had to take an IMEI from another CDMA-Less phone, and enable the CDMA-Less feature. Then he put my IMEI back. Rebooted, and got 2 days worth of texts, and chat features enabled instantly.
The guy said there's a chance that "cleaners" will comb through accounts and reset it, but if it happens, I just have to do the same thing again.
