So, whenever i get more than one message from the same person on whatsapp i can just see the last message. I tried expanding that notification bubble but it doesnt.. so if I have to read all the messages I will have to open the app.
Is anybody else facing the same issues with Whatsapp? I checked with other messaging apps (FB messenger, Hike, Text messages); all have expanding notifications bubble displaying all messages after I expand the bubble except Whatsapp.
I am not sure if this is a Nougat thing or just V20.
Any way to change this?
My notifications are not showing at all on Whatsapp. I have to open it and go to the person or group and they suddenly pop up.
I've turned on notifications from the settings on the phone and in the app itself, still nothing.
Whatsapp say its the phone the phone people say it whatsapp......the usual customer no-service. It's obviously an issue.
I hate change, nothing ever works the same, never mind better.

If I receive a text message, I get a notification in the top bar. If i receive a second text the notification disappears from the top bar and I have no way of knowing that I have messages until I open the app. This is extremely frustrating especially since I am away from my phone often at work.
Anyone have any ideas ?
Sounds like an app causing a conflict... does it do it in Safe Mode?
To enter Safe Mode, press power until the Shutdown confirmation pops up, then long press the notification and acknowledge Safe Mode... the next boot will not load any user applications in memory, just basic Android services, test it there and see if it is still a problem, if not you have an app that is conflicting, if it is still there I would try a factory reset and test again.
It does not occur in safe mode. How would I go about figuring out which app is causing the conflict

This is a carrier SMS (text message) issue? Remove any app you can that deals with SMS or texting except the stock app, that is where I would start. Or any app that monitors notifications. Unfortunately, this is a trial and error process. Do you have a lot of apps installed?
Either that or factory reset, then add apps one at a time until it breaks.
Yes, unfortunately, I do have a lot of apps installed. How would I go about seeing what apps deal with notifications or SMS. Thanks

Honestly, I don't know... Do you have lots of texting apps?
Just whatsapp
Any other ideas anyone ? It is extremely frustrating.
Test to see if WhatsApp is your conflict. Uninstall it long enough to see if it is the culprit. If it is and you want to keep using it, I don't know how to fix it, but at least you know more precisely where to start.
It is not WhatsApp causing the issue. Any other ideas ? I'm surprised no one else has had this issue. It is extremely frustrating.
I am still having this problem. I also get "unfortunately messaging has stopped." When receiving messages from one particular contact.
There are other apps that can do texting and act as a messaging app...I.e Facebook messenger, Hangouts, Skype, etc. The are also apps with access to messaging which you can find on permissions. As stated by acejavelin, you will have to start doing trial and error as this appears to be an app conflict if safe mode works. The easiest first step is to deny permissions to messaging and see if you can find the culprit.
Are you rooted by chance? I'm not asking you to root if you are not and I'm not claiming root is the issue. Try denying messaging app permissions first one by one. You can find this in Settings, Apps, tap the gear icon in top right, App permissions, SMS. If toggling one doesn't fix the issue, toggle the next one off. Just make sure to leave the stock messaging app on. If the text notifications problem persists, report back.
I'm not rooted. I am going to try this today. Thank you.
So I tried this and went through each app and denied permission of SMS to each one, one by one. The same thing happened everytime no matter what.

Denying permissions was an idea to try and make as painless as possible. The only options left for you to try are the most painful. However, as was asked once already, could this be something to do with your carrier (or your friends). While you could start uninstalling ​apps one by one, I would recommend doing a factory reset and start fresh when prompted (don't let Google automatically restore your apps). If upon a fresh install and update of system apps your message notifications don't work correctly, then it is a carrier issue most likely which you would need to take up with them. If message notifications work properly, then start installing apps one by one and testing as you go. Whether you uninstall or install one by one, it is not a quick process, but with a factory reset, you get a refreshed phone.
Has anyone else run into this issue in the past week or so? Soon as I updated to the newest version of Google messenger ah which is now "Android messages" probably to reduce confusion between Facebook messenger, my messages app always says I have unread messages which I do not. I also do not use any other messaging app for texting. I do not even have the Facebook messenger app.
Things I have tried:
Deleting data on messages, fixes it temporarily after a restart but then comes right back.
Uninstalled app, restarted, reinstalled, restarted, still does it.
Tried clicking on every individual text message on each person, doesn't fix it.
Bothers me so much I did a factory reset, put no apps on my phone, disabled any bloat, downloaded Android messages, tried it, still saying I have unread messages.
I have no idea what else to try, from what I have heard on Reddit, many others are experiencing the same problem and no fix for them that they knew of yet.
I'm thinking it must be something with the recent update, obviously that was my first deduction after updating and it happening literally right after with never having problems but I'd figure I would try stuff and see what happens.

Any updates? My wife's ZF is experiencing the same thing. I noticed it on my own device a few days ago, but, since I run Action Launcher, I just turned off notification badges.
Had same exact issue but fixed it
Yes I've had this same issue since the update and it turned out to be related to Verizon Messages app. I opened Verizon Messages, opened each "unread" thread then I closed the app and disabled it. No issues since then with the notification bug in Android Messages. Also I made Verizon Messages the default messenger temporarily while I did the above and then afterward I switched it back to Android Messages
I followed almost the exact same steps, except for making it the default messenger. I'll try it again today and see if it works. Thanks!

Hmmm, this also did not work for me. I did make it my default messenger while I read the messages then went to disable and force stop it. I tried many variations of enabling and disabling the app too like blocking notifications, turning off system control, denying all permissions, nothing seems to work. I guess we'll just have to wait for an official fix it seems.
Same here. My wife's has been doing this for the past week. Mine just received the push today for it so now mine is doing it. Hopefully they resolve the issue soon.
Ugh same here again..
Yeah it's happening again now on mine so it does indeed look like we will have to wait for an official fix :-/ I think I might just download an older version apk until they are able to push a fix out for it
Same problem here. Uninstalled and rebooted. Did not install update. Works fine. Will wait for next update release before trying update again.

Hello All!
I've been having this problem for a few weeks now and im all out of ideas of what to do.
Carrier: T-Mobile
Wearable: S3 Rugged
Extra Service: DIGITS
Coming From: LGV20 which never had these issues with the same plans and accesories
So to start, when i got the phone inittially during setup of the google accounts i noticed that my OTP SMS Pushes were not being received, or auto filling the information. I skipped past all of that and noticed that anywhere that OTP text were suppose to autofill in different applications, it would not even when i received the text and got a notification.
So after a while of using TEXTRA which was working fine, one day i stopped receiving ALL text not just mms. I was able to send but never was I able to get anything from anyone. I ditched TEXTRA and went back to the stock Samsung app and noticed that all text were there, even though it was not default. After using the Samsung messages app i decided to go back to textra, heres whats funny. After Textra did it's initial setup, it only showed half of the recieved text from up to that day. Messages were incomplete, some just had one reply from a user and nothing else. So I also tried this with Android Messages and it had the EXACT same message log as textra. Both were not receiving the full logs from the server. Today Android Messaging was working for a good part of the day, then it just stopped all of sudden again.
Can someone help me with this, I've wiped the cache and factory reset the phone. Ive added and removed the multi-line settings in the samsung settings. I've tried the legacy settings on textra. I've called the DIGIT's customer service to see if they could fix it but they made and interesting point that it couldnt be digit because it wouldnt interfere with 3rd part messaging apps. When i switch apps i always make them default, i wipe the app cache etc.
I have a gut feeling this has something to do with something with the default Samsung Messages app and it somehow restricting use outside of it.
I just wanted to reply and say that I've been experiencing the exact same issue and haven't had any luck Google engineering my way around it. For me, I'm seeing the issue with Signal, so I don't believe it's the 3rd party app's problem. I can send messages (SMS/MMS), but the Samsung Messages app is the only one that "receives" them. A strange workaround I found was to download Android Messenger, set that as the default messaging app, then set Signal as the default messaging app again. This worked for a while, but I think the Samsung Messages app recently updated, and it broke this again until I repeated the above workaround.
It's annoying enough that, without a fix, I'll definitely be flashing a completely stripped ROM on this phone once we have the ability to do so to get away from all of the Samsung apps that I can't disable. And don't even get me started on Bixby...

I haven't had any issues with my At&t model...Been using Yaata since day one (about 2 months).
Also, there are some "package disabling" apps in the play store that will allow you to disable any app you want, you don't even need to be rooted. It cost me $1.99 (or around there), but was well worth it! You can even completely disable Bixby, so the button is even non-responsive.
Having the same issue and I may have fixed it. I logged completely out of Digits on the phone (settings/cloud accounts/multi line/hit the ... menu and choose log out.
I have this same issue. No matter which 3rd party SMS app I use I have missing text messages on the T-Mobile S8. Has anyone fixed this? It is driving me crazy. T-Mobile replaced my S8 and the new one does it (not as bad but it does it more than I'd like). How can I resolve this? My friend haf the same issue, he has an unlocked T-Mobile working on AT&T.
I don't use Digits or anything like that... any ideas?
hi guys
all you need to do
go to setings
device maintence
battery
scrool all the way down to unmonitored apps and add your 3rd party sms app
youre welcome
This still didn't work for me and I am having the same exact issues. I have tried installing 2 different 3rd party messaging (Textra and Mood) and both were not working properly. I can send messages out just fine but when I receive them they are delayed (like 5 minutes or longer). Sometimes, I don't get the messages at all. Of course, the Samsung Messaging app (which I hate) works just fine. I have even "Force Stopped" it! What to do?
go into the stock messaging app, and turn off advanced messaging
Has anyone found a solution? I've been using textra for years & suddenly in March I started having this problem but with sent messages. All incoming texts are displayed but my sent texts aren't. I did try the 2 suggestions above. On a note 8, Android 8.0.0,Samsung experience 9.0.
SOLVED. I had the same issues and found the solution. Before you install your 3rd party sms/MMS you need to disable the default messenger. I uninstalled signal, disabled the built-in messenger, reinstalled signal. Now I can receive texts. Also my phone is not a Samsung.
So I have another bug that MAY have started after the Nougat update.
I use Google Android Messages for sms and GBoard for my keyboard...
Lately when i'm texting to someone, when I go to reply to a text (maybe when the text thread is already open?) my keyboard doesn't work and I have to hit the back button which makes the keyboard go away then click on the message box to activate it again so it will work.
Is anyone else having this issue? Any fixes found?
I've tried clearing cache on both apps, this didn't fix the issue for me.
