Has anyone else experienced this issue? I too, had the No Notification issue with my S6. Once I turned that OFF it work.. Hope this helps. I also have had this issue with my J3 for months and just took the time to figure it out. Like the above I had the notifications on in messages.
I discovered through Facebook messenger my notifications were off. I clicked and it took me to phone setting for notifications.
All were turned off, surely something I did at some point. Anyway I went through and changed all apps that I did want notifications from and that solved receiving sounds for FB,messenger, emails etc. Show 3 more comments. Select Go SMS or your default text app. Make sure "show notifications" is checked. This worked for me!

Turning them off and back on did precisely nothing too. But sometimes turning the settings back and forth won't take unless the confused device is restarted at a crucial part in the process, so here is what I did which finally fixed it for me:. Send yourself the message and before it arrives, immediately exit the app by repeatedly hitting the "back" soft button you need to do this fast — as soon as you hit Send. You should NOT receive the notification at this point.
Send yourself another message and before it arrives, immediately exit the app again. You should still NOT receive the notification at this point, but by now you will have forced the phone to accept your own "notification off" setting I love reverse psychology. Send yourself yet another message. Again, before it arrives, immediately exit the app. At this point I did receive the notification, but if you do not, restart the phone one last time and try texting yourself while doing the whole bailing-faster-than-a-hamster shimmy.
IMPORTANT: The native texting app won't notify you of incoming messages when you have the thread open even with the notifications on — that's a default behavior as there is no point in notifying you about incoming messages while you're looking at them. That is why you need to exit the thread BEFORE the text arrives by hitting "back" home button might not be enough to do the trick. So if you are still not receiving notifications, make sure it's not a simple case of staring at your own thread while receiving your own texts. This finally did it - none of the other posts here worked until I tried this.
Judging by some other folks' experience, this should be a pinned answer at the very top of this thread. Referring to your comment saying The native texting app won't notify you of incoming messages when you have the thread open even with the notifications on — that's a default behavior as there is no point in notifying you about incoming messages while you're looking at them , do you know if it is possible to change this?

Because it used to work on the Samsung Galaxy S3 mini I had and in fact, you sometimes don't look at your phone so it is a problem if there is no sound in this case. However, I myself got into a good habit of simply hitting the home button after I am done - that's all it took for my S4 to realize the app is no longer in focus and start alerting me again also, a good battery-saving strategy overall, since some apps continue doing stuff when left in focus. I personally hate it when I ask a question on a forum, and someone gives me a "you-don't-wanna-do-that, do-this-instead" answer My apologies for that.
Unfortunately that is the best answer I can give you since I don't know of a trick that forces the texting app to notify you of incoming texts while the receiving thread is open.

I was going insane trying to figure this out. Especially when all other notifications sounds worked. After a week of trying everything in my power, it now works. So thanks. Cheizna Matt. For anyone having problem with their notification like no sounds or message alert tone not working after installing GO sms pro, here's what i did. Go to your Go sms pro, go to settings and look for advanced setting. I had this problem when I first got my S4 as new. I solved it by taking out the battery, leaving the phone for 10 minutes or so, re-inserting the battery and, when I switched the phone back on, the SMS tone was working.
