When I have my phone locked and I swipe down the notification bar to read my notifications, they dissapear if the app which is sendind the notification is opened and therefore I can't access the app from the notification bar like I normally would. ,
This happens if I was using the app and then I lock the phone; for example I text a friend using whatsapp, turn the screen off, he texts me back, I see the led blinking, swipe down the notification bar to access the app from there (while the phone is locked) but as soon as I do it the notification dissapears, is this a new behaviour on Kit Kat? I can't remember it was like this on jellybean
PS: I checked gravity box to see if it was something I changed, but it doesn't look like it :crying: , I'm running stock rooted kit kat
Two things come to mind: this Xposed mod, and Widgetlocker.

But I don't understand, is it a bug?
Hi, i have a Lillopop on my note Edge and now i see double notificacions for whatsapp, Hangouts... because notification appears on edge screen and main screen with Kikkat only on Edge screen.
Do you Know any fix for them?
Another question i can´t write on my SD external with lollipop, I think Lollipop have a fix for can Write SD external Again.
Thank´s a lot
If youre rooted you can fix it to write anywhere on the SDcard.
If youre not rooted you can write in the app dir the installated app created when it was being installed. (on the Sdcard)
multi notifications
Anyone know of that fix? For example; whatsapp, Snapchat etc gives me a notification on the top of the screen (lolipop banner) and the note edge screen. I hate the lolipop notification. Kit kat was perfect just the black bar why would I want half the screen taken up for ages displaying a message. Anyone have a fix for this? Either just the note edge notification or going back to kit kat notifications. Thanks in advance

you can't.
i downgraded to KK 4.4.4 because Google doesn't let the user remove the Lollipop popup (head-up) notifications.
the only thing you can do (i think) is disable the notifications in the edge panel, but the Lollipop notifications can't be disabled... you can only disable "globally" the notifications from apps that you can select in the relevant options menu.
the only known way to disable Lollipop popup and bring back the ticker in the status bar is rooting the phone, install xposed and the relevant module, but, at the moment, xposed is not compatible with 5.0.1.
maybe there's also a way using an sql editor (with root), like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/head-notification-lollipop-t3031936

What did you do to go back to kit kat? Do I have to be rooted? I hope not. I am not liking lollipop at all. Primarily because my edge is now a note 4 withouten the notifications staying confined to the edge panel alone. Thanks in advance.

no root needed.
backup yr data
download and flash with ODIN the KK 4.4.4 firmware for your phone (mine is 915FY)
after the reboot, the phone will bootloop
remove the battery, wait 1 min, reinsert
boot into recovery menu and Wipe DATA and CACHE.
reboot
all done.
remember to turn off wifi and mobile data when you boot up the phone after the downgrade, and first of all go to settings and DISABLE automatic firmware update.
otherwise the phone will start downloading the Lollipop firmware and an ask you to update the phone again and again.
Thanks for the responses, helped. Yeah I genualinly can't stand the lolipop notifications seems pointless to me, and they can't be swpiped away without being removed from the notifction bar. Going to downgrade now! Thanks a lot! Possibly be avalbile to do on root when 5.1 comes out? When it does and someone finds out please let me know be so thankful.
Cheers
I'm having very inconsistent lock screen notifications on Nougat after the update. I'm on the stock theme with Magazine Unlock.
Update: It appears as if new notifications display on the lock screen. As soon as you unlock the screen, then re-lock it, the notifications disappear from the lock screen even if they're still active in the notification tray. This is not how lock screen notifications are supposed to work, AFAIK and as far as I remember from Marshmallow and other ROMs as well.
Global:
When device is locked: Show all notification content
If device is locked, prevent typing (...) [unchecked]
Screen lock secured with PIN, fingerprint unlock enabled
App specific (In this example, 'Slack'):
Allow notifications [checked]
Display on the lock screen [checked]
When locked: Hide notification content [checked] (tried this set both ways, no difference)
I don't see any lock screen notifications with these settings. In the case of Slack above, I have active notifications in my status bar and I don't see them on the lock screen.
I went to bed last night with nothing displaying, woke up and I saw Calendar, Gmail, etc on my lock screen. Used my phone a bit, re-locked display, turned screen on, and back to no notifications. This morning though, Tasker is now showing in my lock screen (as it should) but none of my other apps are showing on the lock screen.
Is anybody else experiencing this?
I have a similar problem.
I have just upgraded to Nougat, EVA-L09C432B360, and I have no notification on status bar on screenlock. I find it annoying. Didn't find any work around.
Once the screen is unlocked I find the notification on status bar.
I dont want to have the notification displayed as a banner but only in status bar.
It's very annoying. I didn't have this problem on Marshmallow with the VUi Material Design theme, maybe once he gets a version for EMUI 5.0 it'll start working again.
I've just upgraded to B378, but still I got no notification in status bar of the lock screen ( nor aquamail or whatsapp). It might be the applications in fault here.
I just got a brand new Honor 8 which immediately upgraded to Nougat, and this seems to be the default behaviour for lockscreen notifications on EMUI, not an issue or a bug.
Since EMUI is heavily iOS inspired, and this is the notification behaviour on iOS then they copied it. I suggest trying a different lockscreen app until Huawei changes this.
That is caused by the theme used.
Go to themes, customize, lockscreen style, and be sure that you have selected #unlock with images"
I have only magazine unlock option. This did not solve the problem.
I'm having the exact same problem on my P10 lite (it came with Nougat out-of-the-box).
Has anyone figured this out? I don't have unlock with images option either..
As mentioned earlier - EMUI does not use the standard Nougat lockscreen notification actions. Do not expect it to work like stock android. The only way around it is to do one of these two options:
1. Install a 3rd party launcher (be careful, some don't play nicely with fingerprint/pin security)
2. Install Nils Lock Screen Notification app from the Play Store. This app does exactly what you want and lets you keep the stock lock screen.
Had the same issue with Gmail notifications using an Honor 8. The solution I found was hidden in Gmail Settings.
Open Gmail settings
Click on your email account(s) under the General settings
Make sure Notifications is checked
Select Inbox sound and vibrate
Make sure Label notifications is checked
This was the missing piece for me: Make sure the Notify for every message is checked
Screenshots of Gmail Settings
Also make sure you have changed the default email app to Gmail. Settings, Apps, Settings (wheel that appears at the bottom of the screen), Default app settings, Email - Gmail.
I had the same problem before. To fix it you have to enable the magazine unlock after apply the theme.
I have the FRD-L04 with Nougat and updated to EMUI 5.0 OTA.
Been using this update for 3 days now. So far, I have this hate/love relationship with it.
Changes that I like:
-Allows built in call recording (in EMUI 4.1, any third party app wasnt able to successfully record calls and even if it did, the other end was very very low in volume)
-App drawer
-Pedometer on lock screen
Changes that I dislike/hate:
-Notifications when pulled down, won't show more than 1 line. For example, if someone messaged me on messenger or whatsapp, I can only see ONE line of text vs before where I can pinch and drag down to see at least 4 or 5 lines of text.
-system apps are now white in the background. For example clock, voice recorder, calculator now have a "light" background where as before it was a black/dark background. And there is no way to change it.
-notification icons do not show on status bar when lock screen is on, you must unlock phone to see this.
Any suggestions to any of the unlikes above?
use floatify to get better notifications and a theme can change backgrounds to black

My only issue with Floatify as a lockscreen is that there's a delay between when the screen turns on and when it loads. It's not awful, it's just not instant. As a result, I switched to just floating notifications on lockscreen instead of Floatify lock screen.
Do you experience this issue as well?
EMUI have a theme engine, you can use the Material theme to change the look. https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/themes Some themes aren't fully compatible with EMUI5 yet, but try the dark CM14 one for starter.
I distinctly remember if I try to expand the 1 line notification in EMUI 4.1, it lets you 'allow the app' which then lets you expand the notification, not sure if it's an issue EMUI5, it seems fine for me.
Likes:
-It sucked less than EMUI 4.1.
Dislikes:
-It's not stock Android.

Not 100% sure of your problem but I use floating on lock screen as well
I actually miss the pull down with notifications separate from quick settings.
Presses seem to not be registered as well. I feel like I press something and it sometimes takes a few before it responds.
Sent from my FRD-L04 using Tapatalk
mostly just negatives for me...
- I can no longer reply to messages from notification with Hangouts. Click on Reply launches Hangout instead of letting you reply inline.
- They still did not add back the missing function with Do Not Disturb function. On AOSP, when you turn it on, there's option of having it automatically turn off after a certain amount of time of your choice or when the next Alarm clock goes off.
- Bluetooth with my car is completely broken after Nougat so I had to revert back to Marshmallow.
- Wifi/Cellur data connection seems to take a while to 'wake up' after the phone goes to sleep for a while.
- Google Voice is broken.

Steps to reproduce:
Lock screen and turn off display
Press power button to turn on display
There's a maybe 100-500ms delay where you will see Huawei's default Magazine Unlock lockscreen before Floatify loads. If you've just recently viewed your lock screen, and repeat steps 1-2, Floatify's lockscreen will load instantly.

Unfortunately that doesn't work for those of us with corporate email accounts, screen lock is mandatory, and enforced by the device administration service (in this case Exchange synchronized through Gmail app). I can live with a short delay, it's not a deal breaker since Floatify is a significant improvement over the broken Magazine Unlock, and I only actually use my lockscreen on rare occasions due to the convenience of FPS unlock and screen on.

hmm that sucks :/
In reply to a few things mentioned above, to share my experience:
Bluetooth works fine, seamlessly reconnected to my car after update. (Isolated issue perhaps)
No issues with touch slow downs or unresponsive taps. (Isolated issue -- maybe apps installed with poor Nougat support?)
Eliminating the split notification panel and returning to AOSP Nougat style is a huge improvement. 90% of the time you're 1 swipe away from the content you want, and for the other 10%, you're only 1 additional swipe away. I also use the button configuration that has the notification shade pulldown in the right most nav postion.
While Google Voice may not work, you can make and receive calls through Hangouts using your GV number. For most people, the VOIP aspect is fine, although for some edge cases some may want to use Voice to make calls without a network signal.
Quick reply works for me when receiving and replying to Hangouts messages.
Not being able to expand notifications past 1 line -- I only have this problem so far on the stock Messaging app, I get multi-line expandable notifications for everything else.
What apps are only showing 1 line of text in the notifications?
Hi guys, first post. I am still enjoying the Honor 8.
Couple of niggles since updating to 5.0 that haven't been addressed previously, hopefully someone will have a solution.
1. Using WhatsApp I used to get the profile picture of the person msging me appear in the status bar, this was a cool little touch. Now I just get the standard WhatsApp voicebubble.
2. The app switch "square button" apps now display only vertically, I liked them scrolling horizontally, anyway of changing this.
Thanks all.
The Wifi calling feature is still not available. That is a shame!
The ROG mode is not enabled, even though I can turn the power saving with lowered resolution on in another setting interface. It is just not working as expected. That is strange.
When I use screen off and lock app and unlock using the finger print scanner it now makes me enter my lock screen password. So now I have to use my power button to shut my phone off if I want to wake my phone to the home screen using the finger print scanner.

You can use the stock integrated Screen lock widget and when you unlock your phone with fingerprint no password required

I can confirm #1, although in my case it was Hangouts and Slack where I was seeing the profile icons. #2 is the way the Android AOSP recent apps have looked since 5.0 Lollipop in 2014, and for the most part even since 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich in 2011. Huawei made significant modifications to the recent apps list in EMUI that were largely unpopular with the user base who preferred and was used to the way Recents worked for the past 6 years. You'll get used to it over time, it's a familiarity thing. If you're not used to AOSP or AOSP based ROMs like CM, Lineage, etc, it's a bit of a shock. Most OEMs also kept the AOSP-style Recents (LG, etc) even in their UI skins.
An additional issue I've noticed: When disconnecting from a charger, it always shows a popup with the battery percentage that has to be dismissed via button tap. I can't find a way in settings to disable this, has anybody else found it?
nice to know! still, annoying to ditch my pretty widget!

Which themes have the black notification backgrounds because the ones I've tried (via link provided) don't!
I'm on FRD-L04 and I cannot find any screen lock widget I don't think my phone has one. My honor 5x had one but this honor 8 never had one not even when it was marshmallow. What version of honor 8 do you have?
NEVERMIND I found it lol .
Anyway my opinion of the EMUI 5 update is that it is just a little less crappy than EMUI 4.1 The reviews made it sound like it was going to be this game changer when it's basically the same thing with a revamped notification pulldown and a few added features in settings. I really hope that we can get a functional custom ROM for this phone soon but without Huawei helping devs out with the proper stuff I don't see that happening anytime soon.
How long do these roll outs take? I am up to date according to software and still on Marshmallow. I even used the HI app
Hello,
I'm currently having an issue with notifications on my OPPO A53 phone, after the v11.1 ColorOS / Android 11 update.
The problem is that I can't see the notification bubbles from Whatsapp nor any other app anymore, in the status bar, while the lock screen is on.
I've tried every possible combination of settings I could think of, but they still fail to show. Whatsapp has all the permissions and notification settings activated too. If the option "Wake screen when a notification is received" is activated, the screen does wake up (lock screen is on), but nothing is shown in the status bar.
Also, is there any way to change the color of the black semi-transparent background that appears when you pull down the notifications' drawer? I don't believe it was like this in the previous version (think it was fully transparent), and honestly I don't like the "new" one.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
I updated to ColorOS 11 and my notifications works fine.
but have you encountered a problem with refresh rate?. mine is randomly changed to 60hz even though i set it to 90hz and on the same app.

Nope, the refresh rate is at 90 for me (just checked the settings).
These are the steps to reproduce the notifications' bug:
1. Open/unlock your phone.
2. Receive a whatsapp message from anyone
3. Check that you do see the bubble in the status bar since the phone is open
4. Press the power button to lock your phone
5. Press the power button to unlock your phone
6. Check the screen/status bar -> there is no bubble nor any other notification related to that unread whatsapp message.
