already asked to honor support, there is no solution to disable them,
only oreo 8.1 has the option to disable them, otherwise they would have to add it...i doubt they will...
The only way is install the app: AutoNotification
->in the Notification Blocking menu,
->add a new voice with:
App: Android system
Filter Title: "displaying over other apps"
and remember to disable battery optimizations for AutoNotification

Thanks. Will try. On another note, Should i expect any future updates like security patches, or an 8.1 update for that matter, for honor 8? Just curious.

for what i know, i don't think they will update to 8.1, they would have already done so, avoiding the 8.0 version...
updates for this year 2018 surely, both bugfixes/improvements and security

actually, you can! it's just hidden between unaccessible menus.
follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...isable-displaying-apps-huawei-emui-8-t3795342

I am having issues with my alarm after Oreo. It doesn't seem to activate while the phone is in deep sleep. Any fix for this? Already tried turning on the priority display in notification.

@ahadshah
Thank you for this hint!
I created an apk to open that hidden menu directly! :good::victory:
Anyone can now access it without installing nova launcher
OpenAppNotifications APK Download
This is the steps to disable notification "displaying over other Apps":
->Install and open: OpenAppNotifications
->Open upper options menu and select "Show system processes"
->Find and open "Android System"
->Turn OFF for each app "displaying over other Apps"

Screenshot of what it looks like when that happens? They aren't in a rush to get Oreo out in North America.

I have a problem after oreo update...while charging only 'charging' is pop up in lock screen instead of 'fast charging' & there is only one bolt symbol in battery icon instead of double bolt symbol...have u faced it?

How to ignore 5.0.1 update?

Guys my pop up notification for 5.0.1 has arrived. But I don't want to update. How can I get rid of the notification from constantly showing in my drop down bar? I've selected "later" but it keeps coming up every so often. I'm running a rooted N5 along with the brilliant XGels and Gravity Box. I really don't want to lose these great apps.

Download this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rs.autorun
Open in advanced mode, go into it's settings and enable for system apps.
Then in the UI (if its annoying, try in landscape), tap on Google Play Services and disable everything with "SystemUpdateService" in it.
Blocking the notifications from SystemUI/framework in Settings could block other system notifications, and it'll still download the OTA (download wakelock) until you take it.

Gravity box has settings for blocking notifications of apps. Use it.

The notification for 5.0.1 only occurs while on 5.0. Gravity Box is not an option.

Wakamatsu, I'm currently on 4.4.4 and getting the 5.0.1 update message.

Odd. I would think that you would get the 5.0 update notification first. If you're on 4.4.4 and not using ART, GB is definitely a way to go.
Like Lethargy said, use Autostarts to disable all the receivers with "system update service" in their name. That's the only way to completely block your phone from downloading the update without any wakelocks. Or the easy route would be to disable notifications from play services, but then the update will still be there, it just won't show up in your notifications tray.
I'm not sure about this.
Just hold the notification and then drag to App- Info and Force stop that .
If that works reply me.
Even I'm eager to know if it works.

There is no need to. When update notification appear go to GravityBox settings and block that notification (from play services). Thats all. You don't need any third party app for doing this.

Or you could long press the notification, use the app info menu and block the notifications for the play services, without using gravity box.

You could, but with time notification about update will appear again. That's because untick notification in stock settings will not block all notifications activity and you can't disable everything with "SystemUpdateService" as Lethargy descripted well.
On the other side, GravityBox will do this entirely.
Regards, Zagor
P.S. I do both off solution on my phone with 4.4.4 - Xposed, so thats why I'm so sure about it.

I think there are 2 apps generating the notification for I once stopped the first and other started to appear but after stoping that one it never appeared again.

must have apps for unrooted ?

Hey all, since we don't have root or custom ROM's yet, what are some of the must have apps to add additional functionality you find missing from your favourite roms? Things like additional tiles for the notification tray, etc. I'm looking for whatever you can't live without!
@mikeandjaimie
Immersive mode is cool,especially for video/games:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/razer-phone/how-to/tip-immersive-mode-root-required-t3714812
An Ad blocker is #1 on my list,whether rooted or not.
For unrooted,I go with Block-This:
https://block-this.com/
Real easy to use:
1) Choose whether to have auto-start on boot
2) Whitelist on a per-app basis

Are you sure you're bringing down the notification center from the status bar?
Bring that down and hold onto the top right settings icon. You have to hold down for 5 seconds

Yes, that's what I do. The phone vibrates but nothing happens.
I'm on UK 3 branded, so maybe it's been disabled in some way.

Didn't open anything but "settings" for me but then when I scroll down the menu ,it is above "about phone" and below "developer options"
Also I noticed my settings icon also has a wrench on it. I held it again and turned it off just to test, then I was able to turn it back on and even got a toast pop-up saying congrats it's enabled...

Always On Display - How to get WhatsApp notifications?

Hi!
I have found that there is no way to show notifications on the Always On Display that are not from one of the built in Apps.
While the NEX has also so notification LED this is rather annoying. I have contacted vivo on that but all they say is that they will give feedback to their software department.
Therefore, I hope, someone with some 'hacking skills' has found out how to get the notifications if Gmail, IG, FB, WhatsApp... to show on my Always On Display.
Any help or hints is welcome!
Not possible. The only way is to set ur WhatsApp notification on floating. Like iPhone. So u need to press ur power button to see any new msg from WhatsApp.
Vivo need desperately improve AOD fanctionallity and customization.
Not supporting third party app notification is kind of stupidly.

Notification Peeking

Is there any easy way to bring back notification peeking settings on Android pie as I need to turn it off for some apps and not others but still get visual and audible feedback (no do not disturb mode). If anyone knows an app that can do this or if it is possible to directly port it from Oreo I'd appreciate it.

Notification peeking is the name for when you receive a notification and a pop-up drops down showing a preview of it. For example Snapchat "is typing" notification

I think your talking about heads-up notifications... in order to disable that on a per app basis.. just go to settings/applications and find the app you want it to stop for and choose notifications. Choose the specific notification category you want to stop and change the 'behavior' from 'make sound and pop on screen' to just 'make sound'. Hope that's what you were looking for!

Question AOD notifications

Sorry, me again!
I'm working on the notifications, and how to get them coming through, I'm on MIUI 14 now. I've got the always on display set to 'on' and to show notifications. But they don't seem to be showing for some reason.

Probably not very useful for your case but on MIUI13 I have no problems with AOD notifications. everything appears there.
Have you enabled all the apps in Settings>Notifications and Control Centre>Lock Screen ?
I think they are connected with the AOD ones...

I popped out for a bit this morning, and Strangly, I had a missed call, and text notification waiting for me. Seems to take a bit of getting used to the notifications on this, some apps only notify when I open them, even if they're set to lock screen.

MIUI Battery optimizations...
You need to disable this for every app you need consistent notifications. Hold your finger on the app icon and then select App Info. Then scroll down until you see " Battery Saver" Change it to " No Restrictions" for all the apps you need. Also from that page, you can enable the Autostart option
