Is anyone else having this problem? I have checked to make sure everything is turned on and it looks fine but I am not getting anything when i get a notification.

I came here looking for the exact same thing. It's been driving me crazy since I got the phone yesterday. It seems to be very random too, like sometimes it works and other times it doesn't. I've also noticed that heads up notifications aren't working. For example, when I get a Facebook message, it used to activate the edge lighting as well as give me a heads up containing a snippet of the message on my S10+, and now all I get is a quick vibration. It's so irritating and tbh, I'm glad it's not just me! Looks to be a bug. ??*
Not sure if you use it or not, but I've always used "Edge lighting fix for all apps" from the play store and also "Edge lighting+" from the Good Lock app. Those two apps have been the perfect combination for my phone until I got the N20U.
Does your edge lighting work with the screen off? Mine seems to, but again it's random. :/
Hi I am using a 3rd-party app aodNotify it works well on note 20 ultra & 10 plus.

Mine isn't working at all. I read on the Samsung forums that it was due to turning off animations in the developer options but I haven't done this.

Thanks for the suggestion, i will give it a try.
This works GREAT! and lots of customizations.
Try Edge Lighting Plus in the Samsung Good Lock suite. Assuming they have updated Good Lock for the Note 20 ?
Good Lock is a must for any Galaxy phone regardless, lots of stuff to customise your phone!

Unfortunately this is what i was using and it wasn't working at all for me.
the aodnotify app combined with it did fix the problem....may just be a setting on my phone though.

Yeah, I didn't even have dev options enabled yet so that couldn't be the issue.
I did enable them to double check and animations are all enabled.

I don't think it's a setting. My wife also got the N20U and hers has the same problem. I'm thinking it's a bug in the FW.
I'll give aodNotify a try and see if it fixes mine too. It's driving me crazy!
On a different topic, do you have Facebook installed on your phone? If so, are you getting notifications from it? I've noticed I'm not getting any until I open the app up and then they show up. I disabled battery optimization and made sure it's not being put to sleep, but it's still not working. I also uninstalled/reinstalled and no change.
Very strange behavior.
Works fine for me. One thing to note that by default only 1 application is set to use this (Messages if I remember rightly). Search for 'Edge Lighting' in settings and then select 'Choose Apps' and then toggle which apps you'd like to see this for.

Definitely something to check, I did but still didn't work for me. I noticed your UK flag, you have the exynos version? I ask as maybe it has something to do with the Exynos vs. Snapdragon processor?
@AthieN I don't have Facebook so I can't give any feedback on that.

I think I may have figured it out! I moved my SD card over to the new phone from my old one and in it is an Android folder that was causing something to conflict.
As soon as I moved my stuff over to internal storage (minus the Android directory) and then formatted the SD card, I received a crap load of "pending" notifications (including Facebook lol) and my edge lighting seems to be working again! I then moved everything back to the SD card and rebooted and so far, so good! I'll keep an eye on it to be sure. But if you moved your SD card from your old phone, give this a try and let me know if it fixes your issue too!

Interesting! I put a new SD card into this phone as my previous one was pretty old it's still currently empty.
Your post made me want to try removing aodnotify and see what would happen. So far edge lighting works normally now. Not sure what the app changed but it seems to be working now. Thanks for testing things out with me!

Can you check 'Accessibility' --> 'Visibility enhancement' and then check if 'remove animation' is turned on or off. I had turned it off and the edge lighting stopped working for me. Instead i toggled 'remove animation' off and in 'Advanced setting' selected 'reduce animation. Not sure if you had looked at these already..
PS- i am in UK. So have the exynos variant

I dont really use the app that much but i noticed that google skymaps was updated recently. upon entering the app and going into settings i noticed under other a sensor setting that has sensor speed and damping. i changed the speed to fast and have left damper as normal and i cant believe it but its SMOOTH the way it should be
dont know if anyone else was aware but just wanted to give a general heads up
This should be in Captivate Themes and Apps, but I downloaded this yesterday too and it does, in fact, kick butt.
I was afraid that because GPS is shoddy on the Captivate, it would not know where you were pointing the phone, but it does a great job! I guess it only needs a general location, then uses the compass/orientation sensors to determine what you're 'looking at'.
Mine seems to be broke
I downloaded it yesterday and tried it today... the display is jittery and jumps around. The prior version was just fine. I wonder if I can go back to it.
I love skymaps, now I don't need my 70 year old mother to tell me what is what.

Hi,
got 1 more issue and 1 more question.
1. I love tap to wake function. Had it on all my Lumias and it was awesome.
Now in Z5 with tap to wake on I got phone constantly ON in my pocket!!! WRRRRR!!!!
What is going on and how can I prevent it?
What is the point of this feature if phone turns on by itself every minute?
2. Just got new SD card - how do I move more than 1 app at the time from internal storage to sd card?
In W10m I could select few aps and simply move them - here I do not see such option
No one has such issue with phone getting unlocked in a pocket?

There're loads of people reporting this problem - just take a look around this forum. You'll just have to turn it off like the rest of us do. Total garbage feature as currently implemented.
Ok, thanks. I cant believe old and cheap Lumias do it perfectly and Z5 cant
Since Z5 in on a market long time and problem has not been solved I guess Sony does not care?

You're right, this issue has been ongoing since the very release of this device. I don't think this will ever get solved as there are maybe more pressing issues with the z5.
I would try a third-party pocket detection implementation.
I have used with good results: gravity screen, glimpse notifications. Not sure of HiLocker..

No battery drain at all! Now if you left your phone with the edge lighting going for a "long" time....not sure. But as it is I have no battery drain at all from this app.

Good stuff. Does Google assistant work when you say "ok google"? It's a problem with a lot of apks like NotifyBuddy etc, so looking for an alternative.

Edit: Resolved - For over 10 years, I have been using the BACK button to close activities. All of them. When I want to return to the launcher, I just press BACK from withing the given app until I get 'back' to the launcher. Why wouldn't I do this? It's how you close an app. Well, I hit the HOME button instead of using BACK to exit the app gracefully like I do for all other apps I run.. and.. AOE works. I don't get it. I'm not much of an Android developer, and I hate everything Google has done to Android in the last 5 years, but what gives here? I assume (and I can see) that the backgroud service still runs after the activity closes, so why would I want to leave the activity open and return to the launcher without gracefully closing the current activity? Anyway.. if I leave the activity open, it seems to work as expected, but not if I close the activity. Go figure.

I am using Resurrection Remix 8.6.7 on OnePlus 7 Pro. I've tried Plus Beat, True Edge, and now Always On Edge. I can't get any of them to work. Plus Beat came the closest by repeatedly flashing the lock screen, but I really want to use AOE and I would like to see the edge 'horizon' lights. I've given AOE every permission and accessibility service I know how to, and it still does not work.
Is it possible to use AOE on One Plus 7 Pro with Resurrection Remix 8.6.7 (Android Q10 based, and goes on top of OOS 10.3.8)?
As per topic..
anyone knows or have a single bit of idea is native always on display is ever gonna come for this device ?
7T does not have it as well. So my guess: nope.
Which is really amazing/pitiful imho
I wouldn't hold your breath...
very bumped ...
no AOD no notification lights ...
at least what they can do is make the ring pulsate in shorter intervals..
how can anyone know if there is any missed calls or msgs if the phone is not picked up.
remembered they mentioned it was coming.. in May ? June? ...

Oh really? That's strange mine is fine. I have the T-Mobile variant btw.
Pixel pulse was my go to alternative for AOD notifications but since it doesn't support 10 yet I just have to deal with missed notifications. First one plus device and probably my last. They make great devices if you SETTLE for less than what mid-range phones offer. I wish I had a Instagram and Twitter I'd call it the CEO. Tell him give us AOD if it takes up battery life that's our choice. It's ignorant honestly. Live and learn I guess. Back to LG or Samsung sadly next time I upgrade. 2 years probably

For whatever reason(s) edge lighting has never worked. I could try playing with it again... last couple times were a waste of time.
Probably a apk conflict or settings issue but I never found it... meh.

Lol, that's reassuring. A long history of fail.
I just looked over my settings and it should be active.
Damned if I see it anymore (it works for a couple days once, long, long ago).
I reset it to factory load, the only possible option left; no power management is active.
I'll double check my blocked apks just for amusement.
Guess I'll wait and see if this takes:laugh:
