on going downloads disappear from notification bar

Recently my downloads have been disappearing from my notification bar but when i check my downloads history it says that its still in progress but nothing happens. The download doesnt move unless i make another download just to get it moving and see it again in the notification panel.

Is your connection going in and out on your phone?

No it doesnt, but even if it did that never happened with my s4 before hand because if my wifi/data does disconnect or dies it would still remain on the notification panel and it would either just be unsuccessful or stop downloading. But never would it just disappear from my notifications and say in the download history that its still in progress.

Heres a screen shot i took earlier. Although now it seems to be fine again.

What could be the possible reasons why that happens?

Just asking questions to have all the facts. When someone calls me for help and ask me why their computer is not powering on I ask is it plugged in? That is not me being funny or saying someone is dumb its called a process of elimination. The cord could not be plugged in all the way and they didn't notice it. You start with the simple solutions and work from there to the harder ones. In your case you could go in settings, application manager, scroll to all, find the download app and clear the data to reset it. See if that fixes it.

Yes thanks for helping out with that. I didnt mean to sound arrogant but i did already check the small things involved. Although i really dont know what could be wrong on the technical end of it like with setting or something.

Ok ill give that a try too. So far i'm downloading stuff now and its been good for the past 2 downloads it hasnt disappeared or anything yet so hopefully it stays that way. Thanks for the help i'll lrt you know if it does happen again.

Oh and also i forgot to tell you that its also not with the download app im using like utorrent or the like. Its with the direct downloads that it happens. Lets say i convert a file from youtube and download it as mp3 or mp4 so i use a 3rd party site to convert the file and download it directly from chrome. Hopefully that helps you eliminate possible problems too. Thanks!

Maybe an issue with Mobile Data? You could go in to Chrome settings, go to Settings/Apps/Chrome/DataUsage, then tweak the settings in there, in particular make sure Mobile Data is set to Allowed.

Welcome to Android Central! Which device do you have? Do you have any "RAM manager" or task killer apps installed that might be killing Chrome and its processes once you leave it?

Sounds like English may not be your first language I can try to find someone from your country if you tell me what language you prefer. No promises though. . I have some moderator friends from CrackBerry that are from Asia; Malaysia, Singapore and an Indonesian (who lives in New Zealand) so I might just have someone who speaks your language.
