Is it normal in Lollipop that when the notifications pop up on the Lockscreen and the screen turns on that the screen is very dim (hard to see anything) and then brightens up when you touch the screen?
I just wanna see if that's normal or if it's happening because of some apps like LUX which I have running.
I forget where the press back to kill app setting is., anyone remember?

Mine is doing the same. I've tried with and without LUX. I like the concept, but it is very dim. I'm on Viper 4.3.

Are you by chance talking about the ambient display option where the screen displays notifications in black and white first? If so you should be able to turn off ambient display.

Thanks I guess I didn't quite understand what the ambient display really does other then just turning the screen on automatically.

Its in Lyapotas MOD Pack
"Show notification icons on the Always On Display screen if a screen lock type has been set."
Why on earth is that specific requirement needed at the end? I want it activated during AOD even without using some type of lock screen.
Is there a way around this? I just want the small notifications to pop up underneath it.
AOD clearly works without having a screen lock.
I was wondering the same thing. I finally landed on using fingerprint to unlock just so that I could see notifications on AOD.
I tried to enable from Custom restrictions "Don't turn on the screen" and "Don't wake for notifications" with no luck. Is this a bug or bad user?

Always nice to answer to your own questions . Ambient display -> disable New Notifications. Oneplus logic escapes me.
Disable notifications
Go to the Settings app on android > Sound & Notifications > Scroll Down and App Notifications under notification section > Tap on App name installed on your mobile > Turn off the notification for the app.
Hope this helps!

Thanks, but I wanted just to disable wake screen for notifications not to disable notifications. Was a little confused initially since Oneplus seems to have two settings for the same thing. Got it in the end...
I have the same problem, but your solution does not work for me. As far as I can tell I have everything in ambient display turned off, but the screen still wakes up (to the normal lock screen). To confirm: THE TOGGLE SETTING "NEW NOTIFICATIONS" IS NOT HIGHLIGHTED, WHICH MEANS IT IS OFF. HOWEVER, THE SCREEN STILL WAKES UP.
In addition to that I even have "no notifications on lock screen" selected, which means my screen WAKES UP AND SHOWS NOTHING. It's distracting and useless at the same time. Very annoying.
I have now turned on "ambient display when I pick up the phone". This finally made my screen stop lighting up by itself, though of course now it does it when I pick it up. But at least it doesn't distract me while I'm working on my pc with my phone on the table.
I like my 7 Pro very much...and since this is my 2nd phone from OnePlus, I guess I am fairly satisfied with their implementation of Android Q. However, their way of setting up notifications is one of the worst things I have ever seen! It is convoluted, confusing, and counter intuitive.... not to mention just plain ridiculous. I hope they really get on the ball with the issue of notifications and their useless Horizon light very SOON because a cell phone without proper, accurate, notifications totally defeats the purpose of having a "portable" communications device.

I am having the same issue, how did you get the screen to stop waking up?
I'm trying to find a fix for this, as well. I have an app that wakes screen besides delivering the notification with/without sound. And now I realize I have another one. I also want to have those notifications on, but without waking my screen, just like most of the other apps' notifications. And this is not related to ambient display. In my case, I have stock Android, on a Pixel 3XL.
Thanks!

I need the same. Hate that anything other than myself can turn on the screen. Have had lots of annoying incidents due to this

Actually, there is a fix now, if you run Android 13. Under Apps->Special app access, there is a new option called 'Turn screen on'. I disallowed the annoying app and solved my issue.
I want to disable lock screen wake up for text messages and still no luck on S23. I went under special app access and disabled "Turn screen on" for the messages app (and others), and guess what? The screen still comes on when I get a text. HOLY ANNOYING.
You can turn Lock Screen Notifications completely off, but I dont want that. I want the audible notification to come in without turning the battery draining screen on, and when I tap the screen with my finger I want to see the app badge that tells me when app the notification came in on (signal, or messages, or fakebook, etc). If it's fakebook I may ignore it for example.

As I said in my post, I don't want to disable notifications, I want to disable lighting up the whole screen. The notification icon should show on the always on display without going full annoying brightness on the screen for 5 seconds. That's just dumb.

You might want to consider utilizing the Google Issue Tracker which is a tool used internally at Google to track bugs and feature requests during product development.
For Do Not Disturb - If you have the setting "Always show time and info" enabled (Settings > Display > Lock Screen > Always show time and info) your screen will display a dimly lit clock when the screen is locked, among some other status icons.
In the DND settings, if you check "Don't wake for notifications" and you get a new notification (text, ig, whatever the notification is), it will not show on the screen until you unlock the phone. It will just display that clock and you'll be unaware of the notification.
If you UNcheck "Don't wake for notifications", the lock screen with the large dimly lit clock will change to show the small icons for whatever the notification is.
If you do NOT have enabled the setting "Always show time and info" (Settings > Display > Lock Screen > Always show time and info), I imagine it would be the same behavior, except you would see a difference when you manually wake up (but don't unlock) your screen--you would either see that you got a text message or whatever the notification is, or you wouldn't until you fully unlock the screen.
Hello friends...Samsung Galaxy Note 10+....Any way to increase the duration of message notification visibility on the lock screen? It's really short, just appears for a second and it's gone
Settings > Advanced features > Motions and gestures > Smart stay
Keeps the screen on while you are looking at it. Works best when Lift to wake is also enabled.
Smart stay is enabled. I was asking if there is any way to keep the notification visible for longer when the screen is locked and if it's lying flat on a table with the screen off
enable maybe notification reminders under Accessibility/Advanced settings
Hi raul6 that just sets up a repeat notification after the set time interval,such as 3 minutes for example...
I missed flashing LED notification. I feel all phone should have one.

Any ideas folks?
I have tap to wake and lift to wake enabled on my pixel 7 pro. When I use either of these it goes directly to the lockscreen which I want. But sometimes the ambient screen displays instead which I don't want. I have aod etc disabled but it still sometimes shows up. Is it possible to disable it with a root permission? Thanks
I have lift to wake and have tap to wake disabled... also i have wake phone for notifications disabled, and show clock and info on lockscreen disabled and show all notifications on lockcreen disabled. So when i lift the phone, it will go to lockscreen before i do a face unlock and tap the phone again to go into the phone.
So when you have AOD, that means you have notifications showing up on your screen when you phone is not in use... or have the clock screensaver on as AOD or have show clock and info as AOD. So what do you mean? please explain.
I don't have tap because everytime i tap the phone when i need to, it wakes up the phone.

No, im saying I want this ambient screen turned off. If I tap or pick it up I want to see my lockscreen. Not the ambient screen which sometimes shows. At the moment it seems to randomly show from time to time and it really bugs me.
This is the screen that pops up instead of my lockscreen at times. How can I stop it showing? I just want the screen to be completely off or show my actual lockscreen when I wake it up
Settings > Display > Lock screen > Always show time and info OFF, Tap to check phone ON, Lift to check phone ON

These are the exact settings I have enabled and I still sometimes get the ambient display. I think I'll need to disable it through root if anyone knows the command to disable Ambient display
Mine does the same thing from time to time. Never found out why and I've looked everywhere. I don't even notice it anymore. I think it's just a minor visual bug that may or may not ever get resolved.

I think you might be right, surely theres a setting in the build prop or something that can be disabled? I don't use aod at all so even if I had to disable that I wouldn't mind at all
