When I receive notifications from certain apps (Facebook and others I forgot) if I pull my status bar down and tap the notification nothing happens. My lock screen just remains on and then shuts off. I don't have a passcode lock or pattern. For example, if I get an email I hit the power button to turn my screen on, pull down my status bar and click the email it will open up to my email. With some apps I tap the notification and nothing happens. Never had this issue before on older Samsung phones.

The times I've seen this happen where when the app that sent the notification was running behind the lock screen. Example would be Wi-Fi tether. I'd pull down the notification and tap the Wi-Fi tether icon and nothing happened. If I was at my home screen it would unlock and go to the tether app. Not sure if you see the same thing.

Hi,
Open the messaging app.
Go to settings,notification settings,and untick preview message.
It's nothing to do with that, the lockscreen displays a big ugly grey bar stating you've got a new message or a missed call whenever you get one. It looks crap and I want to disable it too. I started my own thread a few weeks ago but got no response apart from replies like above which aren't the answer. Another one told me to turn notifications off, but although that stops the grey block on the lockscreen, it stops absolutely any notification of new messages, etc so isn't ideal really. There'll be a way to disable it with root access, but you could always install a different lockscreen to prevent it if you wanted.
Nothing under System Settings -> My device -> Lock screen?
- Multiple widgets
- Lock screen widgets
Also while on the lock screen, you can drag down and edit the widgets, try doing that while the notification thing is up?
Doesn't work unfortunately, it just overrides whatever widget you have on the lockscreen.
Does anyone know, short of using a different lockscreen?

Hi, Im using this app to turn off and on pattern lockscreen via widget.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.jraf.android.nolock
But when lockscreen is turned off, It's working half way, I don't need to enter pattern when I'm turning on my phone, but when I'm getting notification in notification bar, and click on it to to launch app, then I have to enter pattern... Can I disable it somehow?
I have used multiple different CM12.1 ROMs and was curious if I was missing a setting or something
Basically let’s say I get an email on my gmail. The notification shows in my status bar and the LED flashes
Let’s say after about 15min and I haven’t checked my phone the notification disappears from the status bar as well as the LED notification
This is occurring with multiple apps
Is there a setting that turns off notifications like this after a certain amount of time?
I looked everywhere and can’t find anything. This caused me to not notice an important email on my phone
I always figured until the actual notification or content gets acknowledged that the notification would remain
Any help is welcomed
If you stop the app, or it gets killed somehow. The notification will go away and only come back when the app has started again. Happens to me all the time with whatsapp, because i forget and clear my recent apps.

Well in my cause a recent example is from today. I got an email at 10am but didnt turn on my screen or anything. By 10:30 the notification is gone from the notification drawer
Gmail isnt blocked or force closed by any program in my device such as green power or greenify
Is there a way to display a notification on the screen as it arrives, instead of useless turn off "Always On" which is incapable of displaying anything but clock and missed calls/sms?
I would also like to know that. I don't why i can only see the name of my provider and not notifications when i turn on screen, but not unlock it. Before s7 i always saw little notification icons

With the P4 I am not getting full notifications on the lock screen, just the icon that the notification is from. I guess this is because of Face unlock (can't just look at the lock screen without the phone unlocking)?
Ahhh, turning off "skip the lock screen" brings back the full notifications.

But they still disappear after a while. How do make the notifications stay permanently?

I assume it's a security setting for notifications, so whenever your phone is unlocked with the face the notifications will show the details, after some time, or after you lock your device again they will disappear.
You need to search under notification or privacy/security settings for that option to either show all notification details on lockscreen or hide sensitive data.
Please let me know if that's what you were looking for.
Also noticed that the clock on the lock screen moves up and down randomly throughout the day. Not sure how to share screenshots here tho
That's to prevent OLED burn-in...
