Notification not appearing in status bar

Hey guys,

Not sure if anyone else is experiencing a similar problem. I don’t think this is a Corona specific issue, but hopefully someone might have some thoughts as I’ve exhausted Google’s resources searching on this.

I’m using Push Whoosh to handle notifications, generally speaking there are no issues. But as of today, the Android version of an app I have made absolutely no changes to, has stopped showing a notification in the status bar if received when the app is closed.

I know the notification is being received, because a sound is being played. But there is no visual feedback whatsoever, and no notification is added to the status bar from the drop down menu.

Has anyone else ever experienced this? Any help greatly appreciated, I’ve run out of ideas on this one. I’ve even performed a factory reset of my Android device, which didn’t help.

Cheers

Hi Tim,

I assume you’ve followed through the Android setup steps under “Android Setup (Push)” in the following guide?

When did this stop working? Did you make any changes whatsoever to the project, the build, the version of Corona used to build it, the version of Android on the device, or was it merely “it was working yesterday, now it’s suddenly not working” ?

Thanks,

Brent

Tim, try building your app again. We had pushed a change to our build servers that affected Local and Push Notifications on Android. We reverted the change and builds are working again.

Thanks for the thoughts guys, much appreciated.

I reverted my build and things seem to be working again. I’ll step through the changes I made and find out what the issue was. I’ll post the results if I find anything that might be useful for others in the future.

Tim, we fixed a notification issue in our server that affected all Android builds so it may not have been anything in your code that was causing the problem. You might want to retest your app before reverting the changes to see if that works too.
