Download notification icon stuck in notification menu. Any ideas to remove it?

By stuck do you mean you cannot swipe to dismiss it?

~it's not just a phone~

You could try a battery pull if you can't get the notification to go away by tapping or swiping.

By stuck...it will not tap nor slide away. It acts as it's still downloading, but it is not. I pulled battery both with phone on & off, nothing!

Try going into your app drawer and open the "downloads" app. Check the box next to that file and press the trash can icon to delete. See if that gets rid of it...

Thanks everyone for the info but nothing is working. It does not should up in the download app folder, only on the notification bar.

Finally! I found the fix!
Go to setting > apps > all > find "download manager" > clear cache

If its not fixed, try force stop or disable and enable it
Cheers!

i am having the same problem today. phone was stuck in a download loop and after removing battery and restarting multiple times it was still there.
I cleared the cache in the downloaded manager and still had the problem.
I then 'disabled' the download manager and it stopped the looped process but now the download manager does not appear in my list of apps, so I am unsure of how to even locate it to enable it again.

After another reboot I received an error message that "the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped" Is this because of the download manager issue?
Any idea on how to enable the download manager again? or how I can find it?

Forgive me- I found the download manager- I didn't realize that once disabled, it falls out of alpha order on the apps list and to the bottom. I enabled it and once I did that, the download file appeared again and is back in it's loop process.

so back to square one...
