Basically my non-Google apps don't have their notifications coming through on my phone. Facebook is one of the effected apps but a whole slew of other apps are affected as well. What is causing this? I restarted my phone and the issue still persist. I'm super frustrated.
Is "show notifications" enabled?

Were the notifications coming through before? On my N4 the notifications work fine for 98% of the time. Once in a while when the phone is on vibrate the notifications come through in the bar but the phone doesn't vibrate. A reboot usually solves it for me, you might have to factory reset.. which sucks. Yes factory resets solve it all but we can't be factory resetting our phones all the time.
I hope 4.2.2 fixes all those bugs

Light Manager works for me on all those. You do need to uncheck some of the stock led options in the settings. Don't disable, click on the words notification light and the individual selections will appear. Uncheck all the stuff you have changed the color on.

the problem is that light manager doesn't support the power button light so if the phone is sitting on its face you wouldn't notice any notification for third party apps

I can't get light manager or lite flow to work. I read I might need to do a factory reset, but want to avoid that.
Basically in either app, the test mode doesn't even work. I turned all the notifications off but left the notification light on. I know the light works and they light up when enabling them there. Gmail never works and same with Google voice. The calendar and text do work.
Anyone have thoughts?

I did a another factory reset. Lite flow didn't work at first, but it ended up working. Just make sure you install it before anything from the play store. I bought the full version so i could control Google voice. Well worth it in the end. I'm still ironing out the settings,but it works well now.

Let us know how it's working for you in a couple days.
I had it working on mine as well, but always after a day or two, it starts giving phantom notifications (the LED lights green, even with no notifications) and also using green for any notifications (it completely ignores the custom color setting).
I'd love to hear that it's still working for you in a few days. I hate not really having use of the LED for my needs (such a waste of a multicolor LED )

Yes, both Light Manager and Light Flow works for me. I'm rooted with the notifications lights turned on but the individual lights off. 90% of the time it would display the correct colors but sometimes it will go to the default green for my gmail. My charging color light always works. Make sure the options in Light Flow are correct. Check root mode if you are rooted, run in foreground, and reset color before change. I also have the reduce wake lock checked, and it's working for me so either way should work. To test just set the charging battery notification to blue with it constantly on, then plug in the power. The blue led should turn on.
I've also tried Light Manager and Lightflow and I've got nothing. LED's working with stock notifications, but not with third party software.
Does anyone have ideas for solutions or do I need to factory reset my phone (will that solve it)?
I had the same issue: native LED notifications worked (email, calendar, charging, etc.) but no 3rd party apps (BBM, WhatsApp, Kik, IM+, etc.) and Light Flow would not work. Light Flow was working in that I could hear the sounds, but no LED.
I had been using Light Flow on a GS3 for over a year so I was familiar with the app but nothing I did got it working.
Finally, I decided to do a factory reset; however, I first turned off "save settings to google servers" (paraphrased) and turned off "automatically restore apps and settings" (paraphrased). After the reset, I re-installed Light Flow first and then a 3rd party app (BBM, I think). Did a quick test and Light Flow was working! I then reinstalled the rest of my apps and for the most part everything is working.
Only two slight issues: my Email LED is green rather than the yellow I set it for (although it seems a very bright green, I wonder if they are both working?), and my Calendar reminder does not work at all (natively or using Light Flow). However, I am not sure if the issue is that I am using a replacement calendar app (DigiCal+) or a Calendar Snooze app. Not a biggie though, I am happy that my IM and 3rd party app LED's are working, especially since I am running the stock launcher and my notification badges aren't working for non-native apps (I used to use Missed It! with Nova Prime).
Oh. Same issue. Even the test mode does not work . And i don't want to reset at any cost
Even whatsapp notifications do not work. that's bad.
Might run going into settings > general > accessibility and check to see if Lite Flow or Lite manager is on in the services. Hope this helps

I have used multiple different CM12.1 ROMs and was curious if I was missing a setting or something
Basically let’s say I get an email on my gmail. The notification shows in my status bar and the LED flashes
Let’s say after about 15min and I haven’t checked my phone the notification disappears from the status bar as well as the LED notification
This is occurring with multiple apps
Is there a setting that turns off notifications like this after a certain amount of time?
I looked everywhere and can’t find anything. This caused me to not notice an important email on my phone
I always figured until the actual notification or content gets acknowledged that the notification would remain
Any help is welcomed
If you stop the app, or it gets killed somehow. The notification will go away and only come back when the app has started again. Happens to me all the time with whatsapp, because i forget and clear my recent apps.

Well in my cause a recent example is from today. I got an email at 10am but didnt turn on my screen or anything. By 10:30 the notification is gone from the notification drawer
Gmail isnt blocked or force closed by any program in my device such as green power or greenify
It's driving me insane that everytime I turn my screen on to lockscreen, my light flow notification titls, shows for half a second and then disappears. If I block the notifications from app settings, lightflow stops working.
Anyone having same issue?
Lightflow is working fine for me. I haven't noticed that.

The only time I have seen this is with a small number of apps that must have a different way they implement LED notifications. In those apps, I have to disable the LED notification from within that specific app. When I say a small number, for me it is like... 2 of 80 apps or something.
This is my lightflow notification problem..

This happened with their latest app update to help with Marshmallow improvements. Developer is aware and said they should be doing something to fix it....but it's been a week already.

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, you're talking about the persistent notification. Yes, it is something he has had to do in order to support future development on Android 6.0. I believe he is working on a means to give people access to the prior version if they want it, but it would be feature frozen (i.e. no more new features).
Check out this on his site: http://www.reactle.com/2015/10/changes-for-android-6-marshmallow.html
And you can star the issue here to bring attention to it with Google: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=190997
Hi,
I have noticed that for some reason my S7 edge will show multiple notification icons for the same app on the top status bar. One example of this is TV Show Favs, on my sony Z2 with lollipop there would only be 1 notification icon shown even if I had multiple notifications for upcoming shows. The S7 edge shows multiple icons for each notification on status bar which can lead to things getting very cluttered when Daredevil season 2 is listed for example.
Anyone have any ideas on how to make sure it combines icons?
Nobody got any ideas at all?
I have a Nexus 7 2013 that is on latest MM build & it doesn't show multiple notification icons & my Sony Z2 on LP doesn't either. There must be some way to make it combine notification icons from the same app.
Here is a screenshot to show what I mean. You can see there are 3 tv show favs icons in status bar.
I don't use that app, but I haven't seen this behavior with any app on my Edge.
Cheers for the reply, I noticed that the play store did the same & showed multiple notification icons when I did factory reset after getting nano sim but haven't seen it do it since. Will email the dev of tv show favs & see if he can fix it if it a app problem.

I've had this as well, noticed it mainly with Play store app updates, Galaxy app store updates, and Whatsapp. Might happen with other apps as well, those are the only ones I tend to get multiple notifications from. Think it may have happened on my HTC M8 running Marshmallow as well...

I'm pretty sure it's a "feature" to allow multiple instances of an apps notification to be separate and displayed simultaneously. But if I recall correctly it was also this way on my g4 running M as well as my s6e on L. Slightly annoying at times but nothing worth making me return the phone for.

Yeah it weird that it only seems to happen with some apps, the day daredevil season 2 was available on netflix the whole status bar was filled with icons.My lollipop sony Z2 doesn't do it & neither does my marshmallow nexus 7 2013. I did email the dev of Tv Show Favs a couple of days ago but not heard anything back as yet.

It's mostly just annoying as the status bar can be filled up with the icons. I wouldn't return the phone for that as it a damn good phone. I've not had a galaxy device since the S3 so thought it might just be the weird way that samsung likes to do things at times.
Notifications on apps like whatsapp, gmail etc, are very unreliable when the the screen has been off a while. We have the same problem with the Le Max 2 in our house.
Anybody experiencing the same?
No problem here at the moment.

Do you use greenify? That tends to sleep apps, there's an option to keep notifications on so you can get them still. Seems like probably another issue though.

I'm suffering exactly the same issue. When I receive any push message from Hangout or Whatsapp the phone does not play any notification sound, even though when I turn on the screen I can see the notification on the lockscreen and on the notification bar if I unlock by fingerprint.
This morning I realized that if you plug in headphones the notification message sound will get through.... quite weird....
It looks to me we will have to wait for the following OTA and see if it gets fixed. By the way my phone is Chinese/EU version.
Problem fixed easily:
to to the phone's manager/ power saving management, then the lock screen app protection, you need to set those apps 'protected' , so when the screen is off, they are still protected in the background. you may also want to check the align wake up which is another power saving feature. basically, you need to let any apps you want to have notification stay 'protected' when the phone is sleeping. Make sure also check under setting/ notification management, to enable those apps......
