Google Now cards not showing on lockscreen? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Hey guys. I'm running a Samsung Galaxy S7 on Nougat 7.0, AT&T. It's a fresh install not an OTA update install. Since i've installed nougat the now cards for both traffic and weather won't show up on my lockscreen as a notification, but i can get them in the notification panel. The issue is, if i'm not checking the notification panel, i'm missing my alerts since i don't know they're there. I have enabled notifications and options in both the google app and the maps app exactly as i always have in other software updates or phones. What am I missing here?

Undeleted notifications

Hello,
I spent the last week from a Galaxy S4 under Cyanogenmod 12.1 to a Galaxy S6 with stock Android 5.1.1 ROM not rooted.
I have some "problems" with notifications, I came from Cyanogenmod so I do not know if that was a feature of this ROM or a bug / misconfiguration
from me on the S6.
Previously S4/Cyanogenmod for any notification (SMS, Gmail, Facebook, Snapchat, etc) if I was in the application in question without going through the
notification bar, once the applicaton open the notification disappeared from the bar. It worked even if I went through other way than my phone, example via my computer
notification is also suppressed from the bar
Now if I redo the same test whether via the applicaton or via other way than the phone notification remains present in the bar.
To clarify here are the steps to reproduce my case with Gmail notification:
Galaxy S4 / Cyanogenmod
- I unlocks the phone
- I open myself the Gmail application
- I open the email
- Notification disappears
Galaxy S6 / ROM stock
- I unlocks the phone
- I open myself the Gmail application
- I open the email
- Notification remains present (the same for SMS, Snapchat, etc.)
I did not think it would affect that but it is the only application relating to notifications I installed Light Manager Pro.
I also install the launcher Nova Launcher but logically it does not intervene in the notifications.
Hoping to find help here
Thank you !

Hi xstokerx,
thank you for your quick answer I found the issue, it is Light Manager Pro.
This application have a configuration "Enable tips 5.1.1 : Apply fix for system notifications LED". If I enable this tip I have the notification issue but if I disable the tip I find the basic operation of Android.
A fix creating creating an issue unfortunately....
Thank you.

Lock screen notification issues on Nougat

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.

Facebook messenger won't show pop up notifications

Messenger recently sent out a server side update to my phone that I absolutely hate. I can't stand it, so I uninstalled my app and installed an older version apk that seems unaffected by the new changes. However, I now don't get pop up notifications. The icon for a new message shows up in the status bar, but there's no pop up. The lock screen is unaffected. I have made sure that the app settings for notifications are now and so are the ones in App Info on my phone. I have a Samsung Galaxy s6, not rooted, on Android 6.0.1. I've tried numerous different versions of apks from several sources and have no idea why this is happening. Any ideas?

Oreo Notifications Messed Up?

I recently upgraded to Oreo on my S8+ and have noticed that when I clear notifications from the top notification bar, it also removes the notification dot/bubble from the app icon. I can't seem to find a way to get the dot/bubble to stay even when the notification is removed from the top. Anyone know how to remedy this?
That's not a bug, it's a "feature", the evolution of android the most sh#$%y that really get's my nervs.
Use Nova launcher, downgrade to nougat or use "IOS". Besides that there is multiple reasons to do it ...

Pop up notification style not changed after Oreo update

Hi, my s7 is running on Australian software. After update to Oreo the pop up notifications while using phone doesn't change. I have seen videos of s7 running on official Oreo rom with pop up notifications in a different style ( like that of s8 and s9 like a small Bubble on top of screen when message and other notification arrives.) Any idea how to fix that?
I was wondering the same thing...
Same here... is there any solution to that problem?
