Hey guys. I just got my phone yesterday and it's amazing, however I'm having a little problem with WhatsApp. On the lockscreen, when I get notifications from more than one group or person -which get grouped- I can't seem to expand the notification to view all of my individual notifications. I've set it to show all my notifications and I'm not using face unlock because it doesn't even show up with my phone set to my region.
I'm using the global MIUI10 ROM.
Thanks.
Welcome to MIUI.
I've been told this is a security feature and not a bug.

No, a couple of MIUI fan boys on the MIUI forums. Xaiomi can do no wrong in some peoples eyes.
Apparently this issue has been raised multiple times for multiple phones in the MIUI Bug Report forum and it has been closed as 'by design' every time.

Haha, yeah, I got a similar comment from one of their developers a few weeks ago. It was that comment which made me decide to leave the eu MIUI rom behind. If it were my software that didn't work with Google Messages, I'd be embarrassed and I'd be fixing my code.
MIUI 10.2 fixes those kind of updates, and there is a setting to allow notification drop down on lockscreen
you used to be able to do it by default, but then there were a lot of complaints

10.2 fixed a couple of notification issues but not all of them.
Please could you tell me where to find the setting you mention above? I can't see it anywhere.

yeah its in a weird spot
settings > lock screen > advanced settings > "on lock screen"
from there you can set it to "don't show notifications at all"
kinda chinglishy but i get it

Thank you, but the OP was asking about expandable Notifications on the lock screen (when the phone is locked, you can't swipe down on a notification to see more details). The options above let you see Notifications on the lock screen but there isn't an option to enable 'expandable lock screen notifications'.

I had many android phones before and I never had this many issues getting basic things to work.
Most options are not where they are supposed to or not at all. Instead of spamming further threads I figured I will put them all in one place.
On my phone the swipe and none (lock) options are grayed out "Disabled by administrator, encryption policy or credential storage". Huh ? Also I added my smartwatch as trusted device and it still shows lock screen. Also smart lock settings are nowhere to be found.
No way to control music without unlocking (setting it in notification menu didn't work for me).
Standard quick settings menu is missing (even though in review videos it's there). The command center is terrible. It takes too many taps to access certain things.
Default email client doesn't work with office365.
I want to love this phone so bad, but it makes it so difficult.
Does anyone else have any other frustrations ?
OK, I figured how to disable lock screen. In security options I "cleared credentials" and those options appeared.
try swipe up from center bottom for quick settings
I am unable to install 'Evernote' from the play store. I get error code 504. I have tried everything to resolve the issue including vpn from another country without luck. Could anyone out there with a Blu Pure XL please try to install this app to see if they get the same error? Thanks.
Same boat. I even emailed Blu's support about the Evernote issue & the fact that this phone does not have quick charge even though it is advertised as such 2 days ago. Have yet to hear back from them. Gonna call tomorrow.
Thank you. @thomasanderson

Whats interesting about this is every review unit video on youtube prior to release shows the Pure XL with the same swipe down stock lollipop notification window & quick settings as the Nexus 6. I wonder why Blu changed this on the release units to the swipe up quick settings & two tier notification system(not complaining cause I prefer it, just curious), and if that was the reason for the 3 week holdup from the initial release date.
Look at the 3:28 mark on the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkCfilwYIEc

You're absolutely welcome. Contacted Blu today. They told me that they would have to look into the quick charge issue and get back to me(yea right), and as far as the evernote app goes I would have to contact the developer. Interesting thing about that is that Evernote doesnt allow you to talk to them unless you are a premium subscriber. LOL! I was not aware of this. Looks like Ill be moving all my notes to Keep or Onenote for the time
being.
Found another annoyance. Led light is blinking green but there is no notifications on the phone and no way to get rid of it unless I disable the led completely. Also autobrightness doesn't work most of the time. On the verge of returning it.
OK restarting fixes the notification, but still...
BLU Pure XL
so far too many apps that work on my Nexus 5 running 5.1.1 but do not install or run on the BLU Pure XL running 5.1.
Out of Milk (sync does not work)
Evernote (504 install error)
I guess I will have to return the BLU. Super hardware, sloppy software it seems.

If you received a text or call, clearing the notifications from the notification bar is not enough. One have to go to the call and touch it to mark it as read. Kind of like an email, it does it for me.
Hey all,
For the life of me I can't get notifications to show up my lock screen. I have tried enabling it in settings but no dice. Even when I put down the notification bar on the lock screen it is still empty. Any help would be appreciated as this is getting a bit annoying.

Tyvm. Would you happen to know if there is any way to show all items that are currently in notification bar on my lock screen and not just newly received/unread items? I like to have access to my Play Music and Pocket Cast notification widgets all times.

I emailed Huawei Tech Support yesterday regarding this issue. I was prompted to call in to tech support for further assistance, and told by a service rep that this is a known software issue. Along with led notification light also, she then created a ticket for me... I asked her if there would be an update correcting the issue soon? She placed me on a brief hold then returned stating that; "eta should be about mid March!" ?
I refused to trouble shoot with her due to the phone surprisingly deciding to display notifications and notification light by itself!
After pressing lock button and viewing lockscreen again, NOTHING BUT DATE & TIME.... It's been intermittent ever since, although play music seems to efficiently control lock screen with image and track controls every time!

Why do they say it's a known issue when some, like me, do get notifications? Although, I do notice that I do not always get notifications from my news app, etc. But in whole, I am getting my Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, CNN, nottifications. You are not getting anything at all in your lockscreen?
I'm using the US version

Yes throughout the day I will see them, but they're inconsistent, and intermittent! For example just listening to a music app during one record I can power on screen... see title and artist... Power off screen.... 5 secs later, power on screen.... Noting! It's the same thing with messages, they should remain there "on lock screen" until they're are checked or acknowledged, via lock screen, home screen, or task bar!
US version as well, and it's same with led notification light!?

Did you make sure that those apps that you want to receive notifications from aren't set to sleep when the screen Locks?

I appreciate it! After checking here all my apps are set to "don't close".
*Bump* Guys has this issue been consistently fixed with the latest updates? This was honestly my only legitimate knock on the Mate 9 software... Appreciate your input! Thanks!
You need to go to the themes app and enable magazine unlock in the screen lock settings. It's the one one that will allow notifications on the lock screen.

Confirmed from my side. Enable magazine unlock in the screen lock settings is mandatory to get notifications .

Definitely confirmed. I am using magazine unlock and constantly get lock screen notifications. Also yes to media controls for casting, music play etc. Huawei should make it clear in manual that only way to get lock screen notifications it to use magazine unlock.
Now go rebuy the Mate 9. It's an excellent phone ?

Guys, sorry to rehash this issue, but has anyone figured out how to ALWAYS display the notifications in the notifications tray to the lockscreen? I bought the phone again, but I'm not seeing the notifications mirrored in the unlocked phone's notification trade... Like EVERY other Android phone. Let me explain:
I get a WhatsApp message, it will show up on the lockscreen. Say I then unlock the phone, don't do ANYTHING to the WhatsApp notification. The phone locks again and this time... No notification on the lock screen, despite me not acknowledging it!
Has anyone been able to solve for me? Perhaps a other lock screen app you use maybe?
Thank you! This phone is so perfect, the software is slightly off though, but maybe you guys have this solution! ?
Same thing here, I think all you can do is wait for an update, but don't get your hopes up ...

Thank you for the input, friend. All these updates since launch, can't believe they haven't fixed something that is native across all other Android phones... I wonder if their other phones with EMUI do the same thing? Can anyone confirm?
If there really are no other options... Can you guys recommend alternative lock screen apps you may be using? I tried Flotify, but the stupid thing didn't display the Music player or YouTube casting controls on the lockscreen and the quick reply was weak... ?
Thank you!

It displays Spotify controls anyway, although a bit too big :/
Sad thing about Floatify is that the timeout of your screen is always set to 30 seconds, regardless of what you set it to in Settings - display. Until you pay for pro... Then you can change it.
I did however notice that Spotify functions without Floatify now. I'm on c432B185. I wonder if Huawei fixed it. A lot of other notifications that wouldn't display on lockscreen before works as well.

Yes Sir - YouTube casting, TuneIn Radio also work without the Flotify lockscreen, however, other notifications I have tested, Google, WhatsApp, Textra, etc... show up once, you unlock the phone, not check the notifications, come back, and it's no longer there !
I cannot believe this does not bother anyone else, other than you and I, it seems !

OH yeah. Just did notice Textra only displays once. It could be some kind of "security". :/
Since I've had my phone, some notifications just don't come through no matter what I do. WhatsApp will not work unless I wake up my screen and my calender reminders never work unless I happen to be on my phone.
All permissions granted, battery optimization turned off, auto start enabled and no restrictions on these apps. Quite annoying.
Does anyone know how to sort this?
LOL this has to be the funniest post I've ever seen here. Like 25% of posts and comments on mi 10 ultra forums are about notification issues bud. Did you even attempt to search?

Are you on stock Chinese by any chance? Switch to the EU ROM, this will resolve your issue easier than it is to explain every setting needed for some notifications to fully work. Took me ages but I did do it. Then I went EU, no issues, worked straight away.

Definitely try the EU ROM. It has its own problems but it's better than the stock.
Yeah I get this all the time. Its so frustrating. This bug has a mind of its own and seems to choose when it likes to stop notifications working

It is very strange, because WhatsApp is one of the apps whose notifications seems to be reliable.
Gmail is one that I am not 100% sure about. But I feel it is somehow related to the way gmail handle its notification, since I experience similar behaviour on other phones.
Teams and Outlook are 100% notifications rate for me.
Possibly I have set something else in MIUI settings, I have to check everything.
When you get a notification that you have been mentioned or a thread you are watching has been replied to, if you click on the notification the app opens on the default screen and not in the thread/post that is mentioned.
Clicking on the notifcation should bring you directly to the thread notified about.
Strangely enough, after I cleaned all data and reset app, the notification I got for this thread brought me straight to the thread. I'll continue to test but wondering if others have this issue?
Hola,
Im having same issue with notifications not opening properly plus always I have 1 non existent notification that always there until i go and mark all read.
Cheers team!
Notifications have been inconsistent for me. If the app is already open it works. But pressing it from the android pull-down menu, the app gets stuck on home tab.
I face this issue as well but it is happening randomly on my end, I don't have the pattern yet.
This is a known issue that will be fixed in an upcoming version. Thanks.
In the latest versions, this is no longer an issue.

See xda-app-beta channel on the xda discord server.
Hello,
I have tried every option to show the Notifications on the LockScreen either with Details or only the icon with no success!!!!!
Is it designed that way? I didn't think so but this is what I am finding out
One more thing,
When I pause the song/podcast via my Wireless headphones, I need to unlock the device so the audio will continue after i press play?
Is it the same issue? that once the screen is locked the device basically is cut off?

Hmm kinda weird what music player are you using that it won't show on your lockscreen for me Spotify works fine on my lockscreen.
I use Podcasts Addict and Spotify as well,
But both of them and ALL ALL other applications are not showing.
PS: I noticed that the Screen Lights up when I receive anything but it doesn't show up;
I need to Unlock the device to see from which application and what the details of it.
