Apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere. I have just got the note 10 plus 5g. Since getting this I cannot get the whatsapp notification in my status bar. I can get sound, vibration, edge lighting and peeking message. If I miss these then I have no way of knowing I have a message until I open the app. Why can I not get the icon in the status bar where all my other apps notifications show up? Any help would be appreciated. The phone is now on android 10 and pop ups are no longer an option. Not that I want them anyway. Thanks
check notifications in Settings, you might have blocked notifications for WhatsApp by mistake

SOLVED:
In the whatsapp settings which had transferred from my previous phone, the led light notification was set to white. With the note 10 plus not having an led light this was clearly causing some issue. On changing the led light setting to none, the notification now shows on the status bar and badge count.

I've read some people saying they have had really bad problems with Lightflow that affect things like booting their device while others have said they have had no problems at all with it. What is your experience with it?
The options for LED control sound awesome, but I'd prefer not to screw up my week-old GN if I can help it.
In my experience, it works flawlessly
I've never had any problems. I definitely suggest giving it a try. I'm sure you'll love it.
The only problem that I have is when I dismiss an notification, the light doesn't go off. It keeps blinking.
Eg. Facebook notifications. I swipe them in my status bar to remove them, but as soon as I lock my screen, the notification LED glows blue. It happens sometimes even if I read the message or notification in the app.

Now that you mention it, when I received an email through the Hotmail application the light would not go away unless I opened the app. That's the only flaw I've found.
The only issue I have is that you have to open the app for the notification to get rid of the blinking light. Everything else works fine for me.

Iirc, it happens that way because lightflow monitors the apps, not the system notification. Like the description says, if the app isnt in the lightflow monitoring list, you wont get an led light for it.

There's a couple o' spots in settings, one in general, and one for the specific app notification that should look after that.
i. e. Clear the light after opening status/notification bar.

I used to have it and had no problems at all. Worst case you can always just delete the app.
I rooted my phone and downloaded a custom rom and now don't need light flow anymore since the rom has custom notif. light set up.
Never had problems, I set it to dismiss notification with screen on so I don't have to open that certain app
I've had extreme display glitches. Upon boot my screen would flash a green/pink burst of static, and post light flow I haven't a single issue.
Try Liquidsmooth, the integrated led has all of the same features.

Have used lightflow in the past, worked flawlessly.

Why is it that on my Note 3 I had little numbers in the corner of an icon of pending notifications. On the G3 these don't exist and my task bar notifications don't show all the time when I have messages on FaceBook. This is quite annoying and making me want to switch back to the Note 4. Any help is appreciated.
Hello! Just got the unlock version a couple days ago and I am using lightning launcher; it is awesome. My issue is with call and text notifications, how do I make the fire phone display that I have a new call/text or missed a call on the status bar. This is really frustrating, hope someone can help me.
I don't think this is possible without replacing the systemui file. The only other option would be to use omega status bar, or super status bar, which are basically status bar overlays.
So I did install omega status bar but it still wont show call or text notifications in the status bar. Can you tell me how to set it up? Even the app icon itself is not even showing that I have recieved a call or text.
I think you will benefit from reading the tips and tricks thread that's created. Member jondecker76 and myself branch out on a lot of helpful tips to use this as a daily device.

Problem - Notifications - The notification bar doesn't keep a log of icons of notifications. For example, if I get a KIK message it drops down, previews it, and vanished. Unless I open up the notification panel there is nothing to remind you of this. This bothers me as I often don't review them straight away and forget it even happened.
Solution- Notifications - I've toggled all the options regarding notifications in the settings. My original complaint still exists. This was a HUGE set back for me with this device. Luckily, with a lot of trial and error, I found an app that works well for me. It's call NotifierPro Free. I configured it so a bar drops down and stays under the status bar. I also configured it so these notifications remain until I swipe them away. This has been a HUGE help in allowing me to adapt to this device.

Running into the same issue, have you found a work around? I know this thread is old, hopefully the original poster will reply or someone else.
Hi guys
i'm at my first experience with a Pixel smartphone and and i have a problem with notifications. I copy to you what i have written on Google support Forum (i haven't received answer from anyone...) and i hope that you can help me...because i going crazy:
Hi guys, after the update to android 10 i have notification problems. Very often the notifications are reported with sound and vibration but when i wake up the phone i can't see the notification on the lockscreen and there is also no notification in the status bar at the top. I can see the notification only with the scroll down of the status bar. I've noticed that if you go in the notification menù and enable or disable "allow notification indicators", the notification symbol will magically appear in the status bar.
I've tried to send a feedback, through the appropriate item in the menu, but i haven't receive answer...
Note: I installed the January patches but nothing has changed
i've tried to change all the notification settings and i've tried also a factory reset but without success (for two days, after the factory reset the Pixel haven't lost a single notification but yesterday the problems was reappeared).
I hope a lot in a your help guys
P.S: i ask sorry to all for my bad english

I have this issue only with WhatsApp and not all the time. Occasionally I receive a message and my phone makes the sound as well as vibrates however nothing appears on the status bar or on the lock screen. I see the notification dot on the WhatsApp icon itself and if I open the app, it shows there's a new message. All other apps are working absolutely fine so I thought it's just a bug with WhatsApp.

Hi matekaneve and thanks a lot for have answered to me
So do you think that is only a problem with WhatsApp?
I've tried to install also the newer beta versions of WhatsApp but the bug, always in random way, continue to appear...
But i'm really happy if the cause of the bug is only WhatsApp and not the Pixel 2 XL

Having same problem. No tone. Just icon ontop. App is not sleeping or restricted at all
It is not a perfect solution but use the Edge Lighting. It will light up the entire edges green if you choose applications colour and show a popup with the message which can be interacted with. As an addition you can turn AOD on and it will show an icon with the notification.
