Tapping notification does not move the app to foreground (Android)

[LKruglov]

I open my app, put it in background by pressing home button and send a notification (via this service). The notification is received and is shown in the statusbar. But nothing happens when I tap on the notification - I get back to home screen and the app is not shown.

If the app is in foreground, 'onNotificationOpen' callback works as expected and I can see notification object.

The code (called inside 'deviceready' handler):

    window.FirebasePlugin.onTokenRefresh(function(token) {
       console.log('FirebasePlugin onTokenRefresh - token:', token);
    }, console.log);
    window.FirebasePlugin.onNotificationOpen(function(notification) {
        console.log('FirebasePlugin onNotificationOpen - notification:', notification);
    }, console.log);

And if I use plugin cordova-push-notifications, the app is successfully opened after tapping the notification.

Seems like a duplicate of #564

Oh well.

What I had to do was to change payload format.
Other suggested removing "notification" entirely and move title and body inside data.
But it caused same issue - tapping not open app - on iOS.

I guess click_action => FCM_PLUGIN_ACTIVITY is causing problem.
To be safe, I removed all others except title and body from notification.

BEFORE

$data = json_encode([
"notification" => [
"title" => $title,
"body" => $msg,
"sound" => "default",
"click_action" => "FCM_PLUGIN_ACTIVITY"//,
"icon" => "fcm_push_icon"
],
"data" => [
"payload" => $payload
],
"to" => $device_token,
"priority" => "high",
"restricted_package_name" => ""
]);

AFTER

$data = json_encode([
"notification" => [
"title" => $title,
"body" => $msg//,
//"sound" => "default",
//"click_action" => "FCM_PLUGIN_ACTIVITY"//,
//"icon" => "fcm_push_icon"
],
"data" => [
"payload" => $payload
],
"to" => $device_token,
"priority" => "high",
"restricted_package_name" => ""
]);
