I configured my Android app as the Firebase docs and I am receiving notifications normally, however when the app is in the foreground I do not get any notifications. Is there a way to get the notifications even if the app is in the foreground.
if you have done all the steps as given in the docs then when your app is in foreground your "sendNotification()" is not called, which is responsible for showing the notification. If you want notification when app is in foreground then just sendNotification() inside the onMessageReceived()

I'm using Firebase Cloud Messaging for Android. When my app is in the foreground, FCM will invoke onMessageReceived on my app's FirebaseMessagingService subclass.
When my app is in the background, the Android OS will create a default notification entry in the system tray. That notification entry looks pretty good to me; for the notifications I need to send, I don't particularly need to interrupt the user with the notification. The default notification in the system tray is just fine.
My question is, how do I make that "default" notification happen in onMessageReceived when my app is in the foreground? Is there a way to say, "I don't need to intercept this notification; please just do what you'd normally do if I were in the background"?
(Do I have to simulate it by hand with NotificationCompat.Builder? If so, which settings do I need to pass to get default behavior?)
When the app is in the background, your notifications are processed by the Google Services, which takes care of displaying your notifications as required, including the default click action (opening the app) and the notification icon.
When the app is in the foreground, the received messages are processed by the app.
Yes, you will have to mimic the NotificationCompat.Builder to look like default. There is no other way to do this without intercepting with onMessageReceived() callback.

How to get notification when the app is at the backgroenter code hereund or forced stopped?
I want to get a notification in the Android app using a broadcast receiver, Problem is that I have found solution when the app is opened. when app is opened I am able to receive notification. But when the app is killed or forced stopped I am not getting the notification. I want to know that how can i get notification when app is connected to the internet and get an notification even app is forced stopped.
There are two types of messages in FCM (Firebase Cloud Messaging):
Display Messages: These messages trigger the onMessageReceived() callback only when your app is in foreground
Data Messages: Theses messages trigger the onMessageReceived() callback even if your app is in foreground/background/killed
Firebase team have not developed a UI to send data-messages to your devices, yet.
When your app is closed the notification submitted to your system, and can you retrieve the data in notification when you click on notification your application is started and in your launcher activity can you get the data intent
I know there is 2 kind of payload, notification and data. Currently, I am using data payload as I want to create custom notification and register FirebaseMessagingService in Manifest.
My expected behavior is that whenever I send push onMessageReceived() method should be called whether app is in the foreground, background or killed.
The issue currently I am facing that onMessageReceived() does not invoke for some devices when I killed app but not with all devices.
The issue is with OnePlus 5 and Lenevo.
I have also checked others app in my phone which uses Firebase for push and their custom push notification comes when app is killed.
1. Is this issue with Firebase?
2. Is there any solution?
I use FCM API push notification for my Android app. When my app is running on foreground and background, it's fine, but when my app is closed, I don't receive any notification from FCM.
I need a solution for this problem, like Gmail app. It can receive notifications when app is closed or killed.
You need to override onMessageReceived() of FCM.

I am working on a Cordova Android app that handles push notifications using the PushPlugin. The app will correctly receive push notifications when the app is open. However no push notifications are received (or at least handled) if the app is not open.
This makes some sense given that the plugin has code that specifically handles receiving push notifications. What does not make much sense to me is why this code even exists at all. Before building this app, I assumed that the OS had some sort of queuing system that received any/all notifications.
Does a notification queue exists in Android that handles push notifications for all apps or does each app need to handle the notifications on their own.
Can Android apps process push notifications while closed?
Can Cordova Android apps process push notifications while closed?
In Google Cloud Messaging (which is the push notifications mechanism used by the PushPlugin) each application decides how to handle the notification. When a push notification arrives to the device, GCM triggers a BroadcastReceiver in the recipient application, and the application is responsible for handling the notification data.
Android apps can process push notifications when closed unless they are explicitly stopped by the user (in which case no notifications will reach the app until it is restarted again by the user). If they leave the foreground by the user switching to another app or going to the home screen, the can still receive and process notifications.
Yes. According to the PushPlugin you posted a link to, it seems that they can. When the app is not in the foreground, the notification is handled differently - a notification is added to the notification bar, and when it is tapped, it should open the app.
With PushPlugin, when sending push notifications to GCM (for GCM to send them to the device) one has to include a msgcnt key value pair after the message key value pair in the payload value in the JSON message, like this:
{
"GCM":"{\"data\":{\"message\":\"hello\",\"msgcnt\":\"1\"}}"
}
or else PushPlugin will not handle the notification when the app is in the background. It has to do with the way the GCMIntentService.java file is written in the plugin.
