I want the screen to be turned on when notifications arrive without using third-party apps.
Is this possible when AOD is off?

Decent apps that allow notifications on lock screen and to change LED Colours?

Hi, I'm looking for a decent app that allows my whats apps, texts, missed calls, Facebook and messenger as well as emails to appear on the lock screen and light up. I've tried a few and can't find any that work too well, I am also looking for an app to allow me to change the LED light colour for notifications. I tried a few again and didn't work too well, one particularly still kept the LED flashing even after the notification was accessed in the app, it only disappeared when the notification bar was pulled down.
Thanks.
Try NiLS Lockscreen widget, works perfect for me for Lockscreen notifications.
BTW: In lollipop update coming native notifications on Lockscreen is a built in function.
As for me NiLS and gravity screen give a perfect combination, notifications and display turning on when taking mobile out of my pocket
Thanks, found some apps that do the job okay but not great, also having issues with getting the LED notification light to blink when in do not disturb mode. Apps I'm currently using is Light flow lite for control over LED notifications, Floatify and Screen notifications.
I feel like the Lollipop update for the Ascend mate 7 will be a while!

Disable apps turning on screen when phone is locked?

I don't want my screen to turn on when I get texts or calls, or any notifications for that matter. I prefer to have to touch my phone to turn the screen on every time.
Why isn't this an obvious option to select?
Thx...
In the notification settings in most apps there's a wake screen option. Uncheck that and you should be good to go.

Lock Screen Notifications - Not Displaying When Phone Is Off

I am experience an issue (what I believe to be an issue) with the lock screen notifications not showing up when my screen is off. When I receive text messages or emails when my phone is off (AOD is disabled and lock screen notifications are enabled) the screen does not turn on and display any notifications (I could have sworn it did on my S6). Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a way to have it display my notifications when I receive them if my screen is off?

Unless it's built in to an app, the screen does not turn on for notifications. If there's a setting for that I could not find it.
I'd like that too, it works nicely on the iphone.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge with Verizon that I just bought and have the same issue - it won't show notifications on the lock screen (with AOD off). For examle, any Gmail notifications. The screen just stays blank and does not turn on to show the notifications, unlike every other smartphone today (my Nexus 5X did that). Am I missing something? I can't believe that this awesome phone would be missing such a fundamental feature (i.e. turn on the screen temporarily to show notifications). Other people also have this issue?

Notifications displayed on default lock screen

Hi,
I would like to make my phone's screen light up periodically when it's locked and I receive notifications.
My phone does not have a pulse notification LED and it does not have any other means of showing persistent alerts for notifications when the screen is locked.
I have sen many apps that replace the default lock screen and generally require a lot of permissions, change the lock screen design, wallpaper, unlocking method and mess up / complicate things unnecessarily in general.
What I had in mind is a very simple concept but I don't know if it exists or if it is possible, because it may consume too much battery or maybe Android just does not allow it.
I would like my regular lock screen (which already shows that I have notifications, by the way) to light up for ~1 second every ~1 minute until the notifications are dismissed when I have notifications. Ideally that would be customizable somewhere.
To save battery, if the front camera detects no light (i.e: the phone is in the pocket or turned down) then it would not light up the screen, assuming the camera does not consume more battery than this would.
Could someone help me find the closest thing to something like that?
Thanks.

Thanks.
That app is close to what I want, but if I understand it correctly, it turns on the screen when I receive a notification for a period of time, and then it turns off for good.
Ideally, it would do the same function as the notification LED: turn on and off repeatedly until the notifications are dismissed.
I'll give it a try though, and see what it does.
