Ok, so I love my new Honor 8...for $350, its about 10x better than my LG G5 ever was (the G5 is garbage). It does have a few quirks that bug me...
1. What is up with the old style notifications where the words scroll on top of the screen? The last time I had that, was when I had an LG Optimus V. How do I change this?
2. What is up with the weird notification icons? Like, instead of the facebook messenger icon showing up on the bar, I get a small square of my friends profile picture. What is up with this. and how do I go to more normal notification icons?
3. How do I disable default lock screen so I can use the one I set and stop having the old one show up?
Thanks guys!
1) Are you talking about Banner Notifications? If so, there's an option to turn those on or off on a per app basis with the other types of notifications.
2) If there is such an option I never found it.
3) Changing the Lock Screen style in the Huawei Themes app from "Magazine Unlock" should do it?

Hi, I cam from a nexus 5X and I'm missing some things .
Is there a possibility to enable the Google Caller ID to see numbers which are not on your phone?
And it seems that some apps of mine dont sync and thus i get no notifications on screen or lock screen. And some apps like messenger seem to not display the message. What can I do to change this?
ohhhhhhhh......i want this too for my mate 9 pro....
Hello!
I have the Galaxy Note 10 Plus, European version for a few days....Coming from Moto G5 PLus
I have some questions, even after searching on the internet, they still remained unanswered
1. Pop up notifications
I do not use the always on display. I want the screen to light up when the notifications arrive. I read it is not possible only with third party app. I set edge lighting. I went to whatsapp and message app, at notifications to have only "Sound". In whatsapp it is set to "No pop-up". The smart pop-up from settings is disabled... But I am still getting the pop-up... yes the edge is lighting, but I still have the pop-up
2. In the "Messages" app from Samsung, I cannot see long messages. I have to click "View all" . Can't I have the full text visible?
Thank you!
Install Glimpse Notifications. That will work for you.
Do any of you get a new message notification in Gmail or Outlook in your Always On Display? It is super helpful to know when a new email arrives without having to unlock the phone. I get AOD notifications for new text messages and a handful of other apps but my most important email apps don't show any new messages. Only way I can see new emails is if I unlock the phone. I contacted OnePlus support and they said it is likely a carrier issue and to take it up with them. I am a T-Mobile customer and I really miss these notifications when I had my Pixel 2XL.
Anyone?

I just glanced at my 8T (EU version) right not and i have the gmail logo on the AOD indicating there is new mail. (Not with details, but just the logo like in the top bar, and never had a pixel so can't compare if you mean something else)

Hello everybody,
I got my device yesterday and i am still trying to sort things and settle down.
I have one question which is driving me nuts.
In my previous phones (latest being OnePlus 6t), i could make the apps (such as instagram and WhatsApp) not to show the message but only the notification badge and how many things i am missing (such as 2 messages, 2 chats or 2 messages 1 chat).
On S22 Ultra, i can hide the context on AOD but the context is always seen on while the phone is unlocked/on homescreen.
Would appreciate if you can help me solve this issue.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Press the notification till you see "settings" menu. Select the notification type you want (push the text, for ex. "new messages for sim 1") Than select "silent" and enable app icon badges. You should be ok.
Nope didn't work. Still can see the message there.
In Settings>Notifications> Lock screen (Display), do you have 'hide content' set?

Nope,
This was how my old phones used to act;
If the screen was off, it would wake briefly, show the whatsapp icon and go back to turned off screen.
On the lock screen, when i wake the phone, it would show the whatsapp icon and that is all.
On home screen, when i scroll down, it would show whatsapp icon and number of chats and messages but not the details of the messages (like 2 chats, 3 messages).
But wouldn"t give details like "Nicole: How are you doing"
My new S22 Ultra acts like below;
On lock screen, it acts correct. Only whatsapp image pops when i receive a message.
When it is awake and when it is on home screen, it pops the whole message for me to read. And when i pull down the notification pane, the whole message is there for me to read.
I have fingerprint activated on my whatsapp.
Now, if anybody can read and reply to the whatsapp message by pulling down the notification menu, what the hell is the reason of a fingerprint layer on whatsapp entry...
They can simple send one message to me and they can see whole of the newly received messages.
As well as, this causes the above mentioned issue. Where people can read delicate messages when i am showing something else in a different app...

Yes i do.
That hides it only when phone is locked.
Let me try to post some pics of what i am trying to explain.
Alright got the pics.
At first, you can see the lock screen acts as it should. Doesn't show the context/content
But on the second screen, where it is notification menu scrolled down, the message can be read.
And the same happens if i am doing something with the phone when the message is received.
So, people looking at my screen can see the message.
Please also note fingerprint login is also enabled for my whatsapp. So this totaly kills the point of fingerprint log in.
And when i figure this out, i will also need to hide other notifications as well.
When i receive an email, i will show how it was on my other phone's notification panel.
Since whatsapp doesn't allow multiple devices at once (cellular) i can't show with whatsapp message.
I hope this gives a general idea of what i am trying to sort out.
And here how it was on my old phone. It shows content hidden on notification menu for the apps i have closed preview of.
Whatsapp, instagram etc.
The reason there are 2 separate outlooks is one is a calendar alert and other is actual email.
If i had like 5 mails and no alerts, it would show as one outlook and say 5 emails with one notification.
you can also see that instagram is also hidden as content.

I know it won't fix everything... but just Messages and Whatsapp in the meantime.
They may have mixed the order up there... good luck lol

At least i sorted the WhatsApp.
Having 2 messaging app doesn't help.
One doesn't have the options you showed, but it also have the block/blacklist option.
I also need to find where the app lock is on Samsung. Where i can fingerprint lock the apps i choose to.

I presume that's your Android messaging version there, cause i only use the Samsung one.
You'll find it in Play Store
I need help!
One thing I had hate on my 22 Ultra is the combined notification sounds. I want to separate system sounds, text messages sounds and app sounds. Nothing seems to be working. It all comes back to this screen and it's all combined. I need away to separate them.
Any help?

Go to Apps section.
Select the app you want to configure.
Click on Notifications.
Notification categories.
You will be able to select individual sounds for everything separately.
Some will be trial and error tho
