Hi there,
I'm on stock unrooted Lollipop, here's my problem :
I want those kind of notifications :
I've tried "heads up notification" and "floatify", nothing happens, just the icon in the taskbar...
Is it a known problem ?
Heads up isn't universal in Lollipop. It isn't system wide. It's up to app developers to update their apps to use heads up.

which explains why only the "messenger" (sms) application works like that? Even gmail doesn't show me any notification, I was on mahdi rom 4.4 before, it had an heads up feature working with every app

That's because Mahdi (and other KK ROMs) had it enabled system wide. It would work for all apps and you could blacklist certain apps from showing in heads up. Or blacklist heads up from showing in a certain app.
But yes, that's why. I figure gmail would show being a Google app and all, but I guess not. Couldn't tell you, really. I'm still on Mahdi ROM. Waiting for his 5.0 ROM before I update.
So yes, if you'd like heads up to show up for a certain app on Lollipop you should contact the developer of the app and ask.

I recently installed the newest paranoid android ROM and im loving it. It uses the stock google messaging app and there isnt an option to enable recurring notifications of a missed text, call or MMS.
im looking for a way to do this. Ive already tried a few things.
1. handcent - i dont like the app.
2. GO SMS - i dont like the app.
pop up notifier was suggested, but im looking for a different route before falling back on that.
any help? thanks in advance.

You should give NoLed a try.
It was initially thought for phones without notification LED, but has also the features you want.

definitely going to try this out!
thanks so much!
I don't know if anyone has used the gs5 but one of the features I loved from it was a quick pop up for sms that you could reply in and send off without closing the app you are in. It was very handy say if you are playing a game or don't want exit g+.
I know there are some apps on the play store called pop up but they are ugly and not very smooth. And when you reply in them it still shows as an unread on your messages. So all around they are far from perfect.
I was wondering if anyone had seen anything like this for xposed or maybe just a root app. Let me know if you see anything like this because I would love to have it on the m8.
Thanks guys

Oddly enough the verizon sms app does that, and you can sync it on multiple devices not just your phone. I have mine synced to my tablet and computer ?

Really? That's awesome. I'll check it out. I love the stock htc app for messaging but if i have to live with the Verizon app for the at feature I might as well try it out. Thank you for the heads up

No problem, I hate the verizon bloatware but that app actually works flawlessly

There is a setting in Sense 6 Toolbox under Various Mods - Popup Notification that is similar to the S5 feature. I use it all the time. You can make the back ground blur when you receive the notification and it looks nice.
I know you may want to use the stock messaging app but the handcent app does this and I love it. I rarely go into the actual app. Here's the link if you want to check it out: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.handcent.nextsms
Just tried textra and I think it's one of the best sms apps there is. Has nice popup and reply features
Try go sms… has pop up window for new msgs like u said, doesn't leave it as unread msg ,and is extremely customizable and theme-able
If you use gpe or aosp Roms you can use heads up notifications.
I like this app it's called Heads-Up Notifications https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=codes.simen.l50notifications

I am also using the popup like you are but I have one question. I haven't seen anywhere in the toolbox where you can get a quick reply like cm and a few aosp roms have built in. Basically where it doesn't take you to the message app, it sends it via the popup message. Know what I mean?

O ok I know what you mean and yeah I don't see a settings for that.
Messages& also has a popup. Love this SMS client as it syncs across all my platforms and devices.
I just updated my phone to 5.0 and while there are many cool new features, I'm not a fan of the pop up notifications that appear "banner" like across the top of the phone.
Not really noticing this with all apps but Facebook Messenger and Hangouts both have this. I tried checking sound/notifications and it does give you the option to disable notifications entirely for certain apps but thats not what I want. I'm simply looking to remove this banner pop up that appears no matter what youre doing, watching video, email, etc....
There is no way by default probably will become a custom ROM feature or an app to help.

Thanks man.
I think it's lame that Google would have this feature without an option to disable it. It's annoying during a video to have a banner pop up displaying your new message across the top.

Similar restrictions in lock screen too
So I've been using venom ROMs for years but now they've been discontinued and the Oreo ROM no longer has a feature I find essential, that is heads up notifications for calls, now my question is, is there any other ROM for the U11 which has this or is there a way (without breaking safety net) to add it? Maybe an app or framework?
Any help would be appreciated as without this feature driving with navigation is infuriating.
Many thanks.
Have you tried something like "android auto" and the likes which set your display to be more convenient while driving?.
That doesn't answer my question
You said "maybe an app"... Android auto is an app. Maybe you should be more grateful for the input you receive or maybe reword your posts to reflect exactly what you're looking for.

Hi,
There's an app on Google play store to do what you want. The app calls ''Heads-up Notifications''.

Hi, while that app does add a heads up notification, it doesn't stop the dialer displaying over the whole screen which makes it pointless, I need the dialer not to show only the heads up notification like Venom used to do.
Cheers

Did you ever figure a solution to this?
Maybe disabling "show over others apps" permission for phone app?

Hello!
I installed Android Messages app on my Mi Mix 3 but notifications doesn't show up. I have tinkered all the settings on the notification and turned it on but still it doesn't show up. No floating notifications, no badges, no sounds. But the messages does come in. No issues if i'm using the stock messaging app and other sms apps, only on the android messages and I really want to use this app over other messaging app. Anybody here got the same problem or anyone knows any turnarounds for this?
TIA

If you are not on the dev Rom install that then allow auto start, priority notifications, and no battery restrictions.
Other option is to install the app to the system but you need root.

Push the app to become a system app if rooted
Why does this need root in order to get notifications and why did none of the reviewers I watch mention the HUGE issue?
I don't get notifications from; Hangouts, Android messenger (google), Steam, Discord and they are all set to high priority when available, at least whatsapp seems to work....
Still waiting on the 72 hour hold.

Chinese ROM has always been that way as it's for the Chinese.
A lot of those apps are designed to work with Google play services which also needs to be installed as a system app for it to work more effectively

I did forget to mention I am on the Global ROM full stock, no root.
(edit)
I checked google play services, it is up to date as a system app. Enabled all notifications on it too.

Strange, usually global notifications work well especially with Google baked into global
Rooting and pushing to system app should still solve the problem unfortunately

Google notifications are borked no messages, Allo, or assistant. I moved back to eu rom. Actually don't see a reason right now to be on global.

I assumed that thread was Chinese, done same in this one so got mixed up.
Global usually works fine with notifications so it is strange. The global I flashed in December had perfect notifications, global on all my other Xiaomi phones worked fine so surprised it has issues.
In developer settings, go to bottom and turn off "MIUI 10 Optimization"
works perfect

It didn't work for me (eu rom, weekly build). On mine, if I switch to Textra then back to Messages, notifications work fine.
This issue was fixed on the recent MIUI update.

Is this for the Chinese or Global ROM?
I'm on the Global ROM, not seeing any OTA update as of now.
And I'm experiencing similar problems with notifications (Google Hangouts, Telegram, etc.) on the stock Global ROM 10.0.11.0 PEEMIFH
and surely you have changed optional/other permissions for notifications, yes?
