I think you have to give the AOD notifications permissions, check the the app settings.

thanks, but accually it was not permission issue, but I had to activie lock screen.

Greyed out
Koskow is correct. You must use one of the screen lock
options so that you receive icon notifications when your phone is in AOD mode. This has been driving everyone crazy since the update. Before the update you did not have to use a screen lock to see notification in AOD mode. Hope this helps everyone out.

Notification popups

Hey All,
For the moment, I have stock COK2, 5.1.1 on a N915P (Sprint).
Am I being an idiot, or am I missing a setting? The notifications that should be on the edge screen aren't showing up there. I get a popup at the top of the screen instead.
Under Settings > Edge Screen > Notifications, I have it ticked to show notifications on edge screen, but nada.
I switched to Messenger as default, changed that setting, went back to Signal as my default S/MMS, nope. Can't see anything in Nova Launcher.
The edge screen itself works fine for anything else. What am I missing?
Well, it seems that said popup is "feature".
EF.
Thanks!
Maybe it's too late for answer, but this EDGE features are connected with Touchwiz. So, if you are using other launcher, you IMHO cannot use this features
Do you have the right edge panel checked? Theres only one of them that receives notifications if i remember correctly.

If you are in 5.1.1, that was the bug where Samsung did not repair it but it was solved with 6.0.1. It happen to me prevoulsly. The notification did come back sometimes but it's gone when I restart my note edge. It works perfectly now on Marshmallow.

Lock Screen Notification

Hi there.
I am using Honor 8 an drunninf EMUI 5 with Nougat.
On lockscreen, when the phone is idle and screen is off, and i get messages on chat apps like whats app and others, the screnn does not wake up. Can someone tell me how to turn this on.
There is the bug where there are no notifications like you say ..
If you can set it in the settings from the app you want like in the whatsapp settings
and if it then works - good... if not there is then no way to have it working..
Some of us discussed it in other thred and it is a bug
Install Screen Notifications from google play.
Or Floatify, or any other replacement "lockscreen". I use Floatify myself.
If you want to keep the stock lock screen (as 3rd party lockers tend to cause more bugs), just install Nils lock screen notifications. It overlays the notifications on the stock lock screen for the most seamless integration.
Without a 3rd party solution, this phone only allows lock screen notifications from the stock apps and some google apps.
Theres an option in the settings called "Notifications turn on screen"
Just search it in the setting's search bar and turn that option on.

Yes there is the option in settings but I think he has noticed that it does not work for all apps like most of us noticed
Thats why users recommend apps from playstore

Try settings - security & privacy - face unlock - disable smart lock screen notifications

Settings, app and notifications, notifications manager and 3 dots upper right, you'll find settings for notifications in lock screen

Many thanks for you both. But still notification contents are hidden I am stupidly missing something. I followed both your advice.
Sent from my BKL-L09 using Tapatalk
following on from this, I disabled face unlock and contents are now visible, I think its a feature if face id is on and the phone is trying to protect the content if somebody else pick up the phone. pretty nice feature. :good::good:
And when i want so see them? 3 dots upper right is activated?

Notifications on lock screen - how to unhide content?

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to set the phone to show me notification content while screen is locked?
It is super frustrating that it shows me the title of the app and just says "content hidden", especially for music apps when I want to skip a track etc or reply to a Whatsapp without unlocking the screen.
I checked in the notification settings for each app and it set to display but still doesn't show when locked.

It already says "display all notifications".
The notification is visible but the content inside is hidden..like the media controls and messages.
I'll try turning off the notifications and enable again and see what happens.

What kind of unlock system are you using?
I'm using fingerprint + PIN and no have issues

It's face unlock. Someone else had a similar question a while back.. Face unlock hides notifications unless it detects your face.. You need to turn it off and leave it off.. There's also another setting in face unlock called smart lockscreen notifications.. That needs to be off as well..

Thanks for that, it fixed it.
Damn face unlock was so fast and useful.
Where can I activate notification display *and* having Faceunlock on?

i am having the same issues with Lock Screen notification and notch icons.... does this fix work with honor 9n too ?
I love you guys thanks alot
the setting management is just the worst ****ing bull**** (sorry for this) i ever saw im my life....
lets hope emui 9 and andorid pie will make it better
---------- Post added at 03:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:04 PM ----------
Oh and since you guys seem to know your phone, just bought a mate 10 pro, i got another question for you is there a way to change the icons to a pack from PlayStore or stock android without installing a launcher?
I ask because emui puts this white background on google apps and lower the icon stock image. Really dont like it and the Desinge app only changes the color and doesnt remove background.
Fix
It's caused by the smart Lock screen notifications under face unlock. You can keep face unlock on, just turn off that smart setting and it should work.

Hey, thx for this useful answer. But I still do have a question about Notification Content when I am listening to music. Im not able to skip a song during playing e.g. spotify. Where can I change this settings? My previous phone offered me the option to allow content or some content and hide notification like whats App, Messages etc.
Do I have to change the settings may in spotify itself? Thx for hepling
Thanks!

I'm not sure that's what you do... But then again I have a Huawei so it could be slightly different. You actually go Security & Privacy > Face Unlock > *Switch off Smart lock screen notifications*

Somehow, I'm getting Edge Lighting notifications on the Always on Display

So I thought I was going nuts, but indeed, somehow. I am getting edge-lighting effect notifications on the Always On Display. It looks cool, but I have no idea how to set it, or what exactly is even triggering it! I think it is emails, but I use a third party mail app anyways.
Anyone else getting this?
it's just this setting
I have a similar setting, but mine looks way different than yours!
its on, but only some apps trigger it. Is that normal?
For example, Blue Mail does, but the OEM messaging app does not.
Thanks for your help

Only the apps that show on AOD will trigger the edge colours as far as I'm aware.

Is this setting point related to regions? My region is germany and i do not have the option to set this effect
I'm as well get no notifications like whatsapp on the AOD, is this normal? (MIUI 10.0.11.0 Stabel)
Edge lighting notifications on Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 has not been advertised or reviewed adequately. I also noticed it coming randomly on AOD during certain notifications.
Now, I am using the android app "Always On Edge" (AOE), which lets me customize it beautifully so I never miss a notification. There is a nice tutorial in the AOE for Xiaomi phones and one should read it to make changes in the settings before the app works properly.

A link to the tutorial please?
I followed the xiaomi tips in the apps help section and it just won't work for me with everything set up correctly.
There is no web page link. I paid $2 for the app and not sure if it is needed for it to work properly.
I will type the changes I did to the settings after reading under AOE settings ( "settings" on AOE app; click on "not working" tab then scroll to Xiaomi ( I am assuming you did that);
First, modify in the phone settings;
1) type in the search bar "Permissions": Autostart: enable AOE.
2) type in the search bar "Installed Apps": AOE (always on edge): Battery saver-no restrictions.
3) Under Lock screen & password; click on notifications; choose "show animation".
4) Power-off and restart the phone.
Second, change AOE App settings;
1) Allow this app to run without restrictions under "app restriction"
2) Un-check "manually" under the tab "how to start"
3) Check "when a notification comes" screen always off/on.
I am using it without the ambient display in my phone, but it works either way.
