I managed to get a screenshot of it (which was really difficult considering that it only pops up for about half a second). I want to know if I anyone else has had this issue, and whether or not someone found a workaround from it popping up. Anyone at all?
Are you using Hangouts?
Nope! Stock everything, and unrooted. Using the HTC messaging app

Probably Carrier IQ for some reason tracking your location. My LG G2 does the same thing.

This bothered me as well, but I have since gotten rid of it. Granted that you're rooted, you can download an Xposed module called NotifyClean. It listens for "notifications" in the status bar, and you have the option to disable them. Download/install/activate the module, turn on the listening feature, and send a message. When you go back into NotifyClean, you'll see "Data Usage". Select that, then select "Data usage is running". It should highlight the selection in red, and ultimately get rid of the little annoying icon that shows up for a split second.
It seems that I'm not the only one having an issue. Well hopefully there's a better work around for this because I don't plan rooting my phone for a long time! Flashing roms and tweaks could be addicting haha! Hopefully someone finds a better fix to hide this annoying notification!

Yeah, take it from someone that flashed a ROM today and every mod/tweak I could find... it gets addicting. I spent 8 hours at my computer today going over various mods and personalizing my phone. Unfortunately, I can't think of anything to help with your issue that doesn't involve root. If you know what is causing the notification then you may be able to go into settings>apps>all and disable the offender?

I managed to get a screenshot, and I checked what app was causing it but it was a system app called "Data Usage". Anyone know how to turn off data usage notifications? Turning off data usage alert doesn't help
This is normal behavior. While it shouldn't be popping up, its normal as in that it is what is done when a SMS/MMS is sent while on WiFi.
You can locate the app through Application Manager and tap it to Disable Notifications. This doesnt require root or anything.
Taking shots in the dark here, but there is a data usage section under wireless & networks in settings. In that menu there is a toggle for 'alert me about data usage'. You can then drag a slider up and down to set the cap for when your phone warns you about data usage. Maybe yours is dragged to the very bottom so it alerts you about any data usage?
Unlikely because it would show up during everything, but worth asking. Maybe just disabling the notification toggle would work. Also, does your carrier ship with specific software to monitor data usage? If so then check all of those apps settings to see if anything has any effect.
It doesn't matter whether or not the wifi is on, it still annoyingly pops up. I meant that you really can't disable notifications as it is a system app

I am really really happy that the galaxy nexus has a notification light. That was the thing preventing me from moving on from my nexus one.
Of course I wish Google would make the notification light more customizable because as it stands its really worthless by default.
I'm using light flow to help but its not perfect. Maybe its just not ready for ics yet or I'm doing something wrong but these r the problems I'm encountering:
In Google talk when I type a message and the screen goes off, the notification light comes on as if the person has responded but its being triggered by my own message. The only way I've been able to help with this is to hit menu>end chat after typing my message.
The other issue is with Google voice. I don't see a notification light up for it. Do any of you know if the paid version of the app will do it for Google voice?
Thirdly it doesn't seem to stop the sounds from the notifications in the night time mode...it turns off the light, but even though in that option I have it set to do the sound as well, it doesn't do it. I had to go into the sound settings and just turn off the notification sound (which actually didn't help, I had to go into each apps settings and turn it off there).

The Light Flow developer is here on XDA. He's replied in a thread on the app forum. Perhaps your answers lie there:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1360090
Personally, I have the paid app and it has been hit and miss for me on ICS... sometimes I can't get the light to go away unless I FC the app. I uninstalled it for now until the niggles get smoothed out.

I was having same problems - light won`t stop flashing even after I checked received sms or missed phone call. Had to uninstall app But once its fixed, I will be first to install it - fantastic!
Anyone else know if there's any other app that can configure the lights?
I've bought a few over the years for my other devices but haven't tried any for Galaxy Nexus yet.
I've noticed though in Google Voice, when I get a text, the light is green.
I used light flow for a bit. but killed at after a day or so. Its still a little buggy in ICS as others have said
i had the proble with the light not turning off too. I had to turn off the notification light for no signal and low battery, and its been perfect since then.
I guess knock on wood, but I have never had a problem with the light staying on with Lightflow paid version.. I feel like if you swipe to dismiss a text message, it will stay on, but if you just open the Messaging app, it will stop blinking. Also, if you use the "x" on the notifications window, it will stop blinking without opening Messaging.
Edit:
With regards to the above post, I have never had the "no signal" light on, but I do have "low battery" and it works fine.
Strange, my problem is actually the opposite to you guys. With light flow my notifications clear just fine, every time. However, it seems like about half the time it refuses to notify me at all. Drains a bit of battery too.

I'm working on improvements for ICS. There's a few things I'm working on for a release in the next few days.
Firstly, at the moment gtalk just doesn't work correctly for identifying notifications due to changes in the gtalk app. I've pretty much rewritten the notification detection for gtalk now and it seems to be working fine in the test builds.
There's a bug I've fixed where for some people the app won't work after a reboot.
As for swiping away notificatons, that won't clear them. It's really frustrating that the accessibility service is so limited in this regard and won't report anything useful back on what's happened. Because of this, I'm adding a new option to clear notifications additionally when you pull down the notification bar as this is something I've managed to hook into. Therefore it'll clear when you either open the app, or pull the notification bar down (but will then be off even if you don't actually view the notification)
I've had a few crash reports (thanks to those who send them in) that I've been trying to fix also, but some of these can take a few iterations to completely stop.
As for battery use, after the next market release adding the above, I'm going to try and add a new feature to just display the most recent notification that's come in. Although it wouldn't be my personal choice, it'll use less battery than the notifications where it's changing in succession around all the notification colors.
---------- Post added at 01:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:12 PM ----------
As for the sounds not stopping, have you set the native app to "silent" for it's notifications. Just want to see if it could actually be the main app that's triggering the sound.
---------- Post added at 01:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 PM ----------
The paid version of the app also supports google voice.
I'm having a really bad issue where once the screen is off, I can't get it to turn back on. The only way to get it on is to reboot the phone via ADB. Then, once I turn it off, it stays off again. If I press the power button SOMETIMES it will flash my lock screen for a 10th of a second, but then turn back on. This started when I installed the app. I was able to test the LED colors, and it did that during the test, too. Hopefully it's an easy fix!

i got this problem too, turn off foreground, uninstall, install, turn off foreground, turn on. You should be good to go then. App is a bit buggy, but better than what google is currently offering us.
No dice
The good news though is that I can get my phone to work again by entering an ADB shell, entering "su", running a "ps" to list the running processes, then running "kill (proc number here)" to end the process, allowing me to turn my screen back on.
EDIT: Ok, so after killing the process using the method listed above, I re-entered the app, turned the "run in foreground" off, then turned it back on, then rebooted. Phone seems to be ok now.

You can also pull the battery if you want. There are several of us that have had this issue with light flow. The developer has stated that he is working on a fix. I would suggest removing the app until there is a confirmed solution.

Yea, battery pull works too, but considering how finicky the battery cover of the GN is, plus the case i have, it's easier to adb reboot or kill the process.
See my above edit, though. I seem to have gotten it to work.

So recently I've noticed that whenever I press the WiFi icon in the quick settings menu, it will blink/flash a few times before the icon is fully blue. It will look as though it's repeatedly being turned on. This happens when I toggle it both on and off (it'll look as though it's turning off a few times). I've restarted the phone and this issue is still here. Does anyone have the same experience or has managed to fix this issue? I've tried restarting the phone, shifting its position in the quick settings bar, removing and then putting it back in the quick settings bar. I'd appreciate it if anyone could help me with this issue.

My wife's LG g4 is now three weeks old and I've noticed this problem I've done a factory reset I've tried all kinds of things I can't get it to stop and called lg2 told me I have to send it to the repair center in Texas I'll be out of a phone for two weeks
That's the intended design. "turning on and scanning" is sort of a state between on and off, so they make it blink to feel in-between.
Just my 2 cents though.
Sent from my LG-H812 using Tapatalk
Same issue heer now after update. wifi wont work(
I got the LG G4 in July and have had this issue. I sent the phone for repair at their Texas facility in August. After a few weeks, I got the phone back and just within the past few weeks I've seen this issue occur again. The repair notes say that they have "Replaced Bluetooth Module". My WiFi connection disconnects when this issue occurs, so it's really annoying and a dealbreaker for me. I'm going to get a completely different phone replacement from Verizon.
Maybe a Fix
I saw this in another forum...haven't tried it yet:
Just signed in to share this.. I solved it by deleting /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf .
It will reset all your saved networks.
I have it rooted and deleted the file through a root explorer or you can remove it via adb (adb shell rm -r /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf Im not sure).
You may back it up before then open with a text reader to see your saved passwords.
Hope it helps.

Hello everybody,
I got a strange problem occuring only in a certain situation. In order to explain better, have a concrete example here:
I write a message in Whatsapp or Threema. Then I lock the phone by closing the flip cover: The screen then shows the clock from "Asus Flip Cover" and turns off after 5 seconds. So far so good. Now: When I get a message, I hear the notification sound. I open the flip cover and... the notification immediately disappears. So sometimes I miss important messanges, just because of this bug.
At first I thought that it is a third party app that is responsible for this strange behaviour. But yesterday I did a reset of the entire phone via the settings app and didn't even use a backup to restore it. The bug reappeared.
Apparently nobody else is encountering this bug, so before sending the phone back I thought that maybe someone has an idea or even solution for me. The phone is the ZE551ML (not rooted or unlocked) and yesterday I also installed the new firmware (.59); the bug was there since I got the phone, but as I said: I thought it is a third party app that is responsible for this behaviour and I had no time to reset it earlier because of exams and stuff... Is there another way to reset the phone? Maybe a better one than the one over the settings app?
Sincerely,
Christophe

You mean turning the entire Asus Cover View off? I just tried and the messages still disappear. Actually the screen turns on automatically, the lockscreen appears and they disappear within a second.

No.
Just tell me if you think the problem is hardware related or software related. Personally I wouldn't say it is hardware related but one may never know for sure.
I know the firmware from ASUS is quite buggy (and has a lot of translation faults btw.) and, according to some research on the internet, ASUS often tries to break the law by not repearing rooted devices even if it is entirely legal in the EU. So before unlocking the bootloader and trying an alternative firmware, I just want to be sure.

Sounds like a software problem, does it happen right after a wipe without anything else installed? Could just be an installed app causing issues.

How should I know? The problem appears with messaging apps, so I can't test it without them.
a possible answer
I think I had the same problem after arbitrarily swiping or tapping the wrong response to use CM lock for Asus with the latest updated.
Google "Lock apps" function integrated with CM AppLock" to navigate to a possible hidden app setting preventing you from seeing notifications and uncheck "Hide notifcations... " under the "Options" heading on said page.
shortcut:
(App Drawer settings, lock apps, input pattern you chose, settings (upper right 3 dots), uncheck "Hide notification")
I now have all my notifications back that I allowed in other settings.
I hope this helps.

I love my new Pixel 2 XL but despite my best efforts to identify what app or system service was sending repeated (and annoying) default notification sounds but not showing any other message or indication, I finally hit on a solution that seems to work.
SET THE DEFAULT NOTIFICATION SOUND TO "NONE"
settings>sound>advanced>default notification sound
Then set the notification sounds to whatever you want for each app you actually care to hear from.

I have noticed this as well.
<notification sound> no new text or email...
For me, it's just easier to ignore the errant tone once in a while than to set notifications for individual apps (cause I'm totally lazy like that).
But THAT is the beauty of Android... to each their own and there are always multiple ways to skin that cat
Use a notification log
I had this same issue. Turned out to be an app I had disabled pop ups for.
I have a (potentially) better solution. Add a notification log widget to find the culprit:
1. Long press on home screen and go to widgets.
2. Drag the settings widget to the home screen.
3. In the list of options, choose Notifications
Now you can see a log of your notifications. Next time you get the sound but no pop up, go into the log and find the offender at the top of the list.
For me it was a game I didn't need so I deleted it, but you can remedy the problem as you see fit.

Wait, I found it!
Very cool, I wonder why a help search didn't show me that...

Glad you found it! Sorry I just saw this. I forget where I learned about this, but it wasn't easy to find. I'm glad I could pass it on to someone else, I'm sure it could be plenty useful.
I'm having the same issue but it's not even showing in the notification log. Makes me want to throw it out the window to be honest. There's time where it will go off every 30 seconds. Off to reset I guess and see if that works.
same thing here pixel 2 oreo 8.1 notification sound...no thing new in the "hot list" or email or message
very weird, and randomly at night too which is the suck
2019 and no change
Hello, same issue still persists in 2019. Every few weeks i must dump the default sound as it sets it self up again.
Still no idea why it does it, just a temp bandaid to curb the annoyance. I notice a slightly higher battery drain too, tells me something is running

Sounds like a re-install is in order...if you have an unlocked bootloader, when was the last time you've done an update via Full Factory image? I'd imagine all that might be sorted out by reinstall/updating; with the "-w" removed of course...
I hope you consider it, and I hope this helps...
Hi everybody,
I'm running the Android 11 public beta and to be honest I've been doing so pretty much since I bought the 3a XL, so I can't remember if this was an issue beforehand. I am having absolutely no issues elsewhere.
Basically when a text, WhatsApp, Gmail or anything like that comes through I get the sound but the screen doesn't light up.
I don't have AoD activated (can't stand using them) but I do have the toggle for lighting up for new notifications activated. I have no power saving modes or do not disturb settings switched on and all notification settings for my apps seem to be fine. I don't want to reset my phone and start all over again as I really can't be bothered just for this one thing, and it would also use up my last slot with YouTube Premium so I'd have to call them to clear my device list again.
Please can someone think what might be happening here. Is this a bug with 11? Or can anyone think of anything else to try.
Many thanks
Maybe check lockscreen settings and see if you're not allowing the notifications there.

Show all notifications etc are on. When I tap the screen the notification is there so it's not hiding it or anything - it just doesn't light the screen up.
Double check all settings in Display > Lock screen display. I think all the action is there. I'm sorry if this is menial or redundant. Just offering up ideas, it could be a bug but I can't verify it since I'm not on 11.

Yeah sadly I've been through all the settings and I really can't find anything that would be causing this. I thought maybe it could even be a faulty proximity sensor or something but that's working fine too.
I was hoping that it was a known bug because then at least I know it'll get fixed, although this issue has survived the most recent beta update.

Here's a screenshot of my settings, not sure how much will match with yours but I can't imagine much difference. Either way I get notifications the way you want with these settings. If you don't you might file a bug report.

It's happening on my phone also. Maybe a bug in Android 11
