Hi.
I'm experiencing a nasty little bug when I try to reply to a message from a quick reply window when the screen is locked.
This is what happens:
If the screen is off and I get message in an app that has the quick reply feature in lock screen enabled, as soon as I tap the text field the screen starts flickering horribly, like switching very rapidly between the lock screen and the quick reply window trying to open the keyboard. It feels like the phone is going to explode. I first noticed this when trying out Telegram, I thought it was an issue with that particular app, but then I enabled the feature in Whatsapp just to test, and the same thing happened.
Could this be a Lollipop bug? I don't know much about this stuff, hopefully someone can shed some light here.
I'll try to upload a screen record later in case I'm not explaining myself (which is likely due to my limited English vocabulary).
EDIT: Ok, here's the screen record -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KI9d_PiQ9zA&index=1&list=UUJBPMHNSOxSqUiEkqtQiTRg (I know I should've covered my contact's name but I didn't know how to. I trust you won't murder her )
Thanks in advance.

Nexus 5 running Android 5.0 - No root
Ok, the problem is with the Keyboard (Swiftkey), Google keyboard works fine in this situation. It has already been reported in the Swiftkey forum.
lollipop flickers when replying whatsapp messages at lock screen
I do not have swiftkey installed in my nexus 5 but also having issue of flickering.

Hmm. Also with quick reply windows in lock screen?
Correct. Try to reply whatsapp message at the lock screen and the screen goes crazily flickering. It flickers then get frozen for 10 seconds or so. If I agree to send a report to Android, it allows me to unlock the phone, then minimize the reporting screen, goes into whatsapp to reply.

Have you tried with other apps with quick reply feature? If not, try it just to see. Also, what keyboard do you use? I don't see this with the Google stock keyboard

I use a keyboard called TouchPal. The problem only occurs when the screen gas security lock. If the screen is not locked, no issues.
I have the same issue with Nexus 4 and Swiftkey. Had to switch back to Google keyboard.
Exact same problem, different variables.
I have this EXACT same issue on my OPO. It occurs with my handcent popups windows and I use TouchPal. It looks like its flickering back and forth between the on screen notification of incoming texts and the popup window. If I disabled the notifications, the popup window still flickers.
From the sounds of the above posts, its not limited to which keyboard or app popup but more likely the lollipop lockscreen.... (I am running latest CM12 nightly but its been happening ever since Ive gone to lollipop)
Cant wait until this problem is pinned down.
Hey! So I am encountering this very annoying notification issue. Basically I get a notification, for example an email, I decide I don't want to read it l, so I swipe it away. Then all of a sudden my phone decides no, I want you to read that email and opens the notification anyway. This happens randomly as well making it even more annoying. Any idea what could be causing this?
Thanks!
I am also having this issue, any updates on how to fix this? I've disabled heads up notifications too and the issue still persists even if i dont open the notification drawer.
not exactly the same but seems similar to an issue im facing http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/help/s7-app-drawer-randomly-whatsapp-chat-t3425570
I solved ot by going into my gear s2 settings then notifications then disabling smart relay. Did the trick for me.
Thanks a lot man. I was like going crazy with this stupid option. I dobt know why in hell someone would need it.
Okay so this is really weird and I don't know how to describe it but I will try my best
I really enjoy Oreo but there is a strange problem with the notifications that I have, so I thought maybe I'm not the only one
It goes like this: for example whatsapp, but it happens in all apps as far as I have noticed
if a person X sends me a message, I get a normal heads up notification
but when another person Y sends me a message, a heads up notification will pop up, but it will show the contents of the person X
if another person Z sends me a message, I will still get a heads up notification from the first person X
Does anyone else here have the same problem? Could someone help me solve it because it's really annoying and I miss important notifications constantly...
Thanks
EDIT: Already tried wiping the phone... didn't help unfortunately
Also notification dots don't seem to work for me, like mentioned in the other thread
Anyone?

That's a whatsapp bug probably caused by a poor code refactoring/update to the new oreo notificaiton fw. Stop reflashing your phone and wait for a whatsapp update. (which previously had so many bugs with the notifications).
**And notification dots are not implemented yet. It's also missing from the xperia home beta. More features will hopefully come in following sony updates... Stressing on the hopefully part lol...
This happens with WhatsApp and Signal, that I noticed. It doesn't really annoy me tho, to be honest. I could just slide the notification panel down and read the old notifications

Then it's not only WhatsApp that has the bug.
Guess we have to wait for all the apps to be updated...bummer
EDIT: I think this has something to do with Sony, because my friend that uses a OP3 doesn't have this problem.
Hello guys,
I am looking for a way to disable the long vibration that OOS11 introduced for face unlock not detecting or recognizing a face.
Every time I read notifications on lockscreen the phone does a long vibration as if I was receiving a call, and this is very annoying.
I know that it happens on 6T as well, couldn't find any solution online so far..
Ps. my phone is rooted and with working Magisk and TWRP, so if there is anything that I should do to erase this vibration, let me know please.
thank you!

This is annoying as heck indeed. I tried to find a way to somehow turn this vibration off but failed. I was so annoyed that I had to ditch OOS 11 just because of this. Please share if you find or have already found any way to bypass this vibration without disabling face unlock. Thanks
So far, my P7P has been problem free, barring a few minor niggles. Is it just me, or anyone else faced the same, found a fix etc? 100% factory stock, no root, mods etc
- can't quick reply from the notification panel.
If there's a message i can respond to and click reply, the type message bar appears, but the keyboard does not.
No problem clicking the notification to open the app and respond.
- Using gestures, pulling up from the bottom to bring up the recents switcher, the keyboard goes haywire, nonstop opening and closing.
- I've lived in my current home for about 3 years and worked in my office for about 8 years, and not had issues on my previous devices. I keep missing calls, and get notification SMS from my provider that I've missed calls. I see at least 5 or 6 of these daily, and never had this problem before. Even if I call from my wife's phone that's right next to mine, it won't connect and soon after, i get an SMS notification that I missed the call. Is this a radio issue? Software issue?
Thanks

Have you tried a factory reset?
Try wiping the data of your keyboard. Sounds like something may be up with it there
Has it always done that? Are you using GBoard beta or anything else? Could just be a certain update version as well.
As for the radio issues, no problem here where I live. I'd recommend trying a factory reset, or maybe even trying the Android Beta Program for a test drive.

2. must be a software problem with the keyboard. No problems here with stock or SwiftKey keyboard.
3. everything is the same as before. Signal and reception is comparable to my previous Xiaomi Phone

one more thing I have seen somebody posting here:
"I've found dialing *#*#4636#*#* and selecting all the network options has helped me. It was limited to only NR/LTE/TDWCDMA by default for some reason on the second beta. Haven't had an issue since doing that and updating sim manager."
Maybe try another setting like LTE only or similar.
Cleared data for keyboard as suggested by @Curiousn00b and the keyboard issue in recents screen are gone, however still can't respond in the notification panel.
Will try the beta with root as it seems only I have these issues

That's odd. Is it only for the Messages app or does it happen on all notifications where you hit reply at?

Yeah. Can't respond on any notification that has a reply option
The almighty letmedanz returns. Haven't faced any of these issues you describe though.
