[Q] Lockscreen notifications since Lollipop - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi , in the past (4.4) I had NiLS installed and could see the different apps notifications on the lockscreen while the phone was locked and screen off . Once a notification came in the screen was "waken-up" and I could see the notification. NiLS worked as a widget. Now, I understand there's no more widgets for the lockscreen , OK with that. The Lollipop replacement is the built-in notifications , however, when a notification comes in I can only hear the sound of it but the screen stays turned off. I couldn't find any decent notifications app that can now co-exist with the new mechanism. Any ideas ? how can I make the screen wake up for incoming notifications ? many thanks.

Same issue

Hi,
Firstly, i have N910F Snapdragon, and running Lollipop v5.0.1, on my device.
I am very happy overall and prefer the lockscreen changes in Lollipop
My suggestion about flashlight you most probably wouldn't prefer but to me its even better than having it on lockscreen.!
If you get a SView cover, the flashlight option is available in SView
window if you swipe to the right ... you have "torch" button
So you don't even have to open device!
Just as good alternative?
good luck
is there anyway to Disable the built-in Pop up notification of lollipop????!
i prefer to use a 3rd party app that does what i really need but can not find any way to cancel the notification of the built in lollipop feature
please help..

Getting rid of heads up notifications while phone is unlocked?

I'm not sure if this is an LG or Nougat thing, but it's seriously annoying. Whenever I use the phone and I get a notification of any kind, it pops down from the status bar (why can't it just go straight to the 2nd screen???) and persists for a few seconds unless I action it or dismiss.
Is there a setting within notifications or apps themselves to make them go straight to the 2nd screen?

Mine pop into the 2nd screen. What app is causing it? I know Textra was doing that until I disabled the pop up notification

Snapchat and Whatsapp are examples. What sort of notification settings do you have? Are you silencing any apps?

Not silencing anything, I just adjusted the Textra to not show the floating reply.
I don't use Whatsapp so can't speak to any settings in there and my Snapchat I have set to Vibrate only(turned wake screen off). Don't get a lot of Snapchat chats so never noticed if its a pop up notification or not

Weird - I found out that "Silencing" notifications is the only way to get them to not pop up... but then I don't get a vibrate.
System UI is a "hidden" feature of Nougat that LG decided to axe, which is extremely frustrating because it has the EXACT functionality someone needs to have full control over their notifications.

Yeah I want that system UI because in it you can do percent in battery notification so it's not next to the battery
It actually started with Marshmallow and was pretty popular due to the simple tweaks it can do that everyone wants. Unfortunately it seems to be more of a carrier issue with disabling it. Regardless, disabling peeking should be a basic option in settings from day 1. Not a super hidden feature in Andriod M and a above with no guarantee of staying. Textra is nice enough to have its own setting. Why other apps do not is baffling.
Someone finding a way to get to the System UI tuner settings would be amazing. As it is now there doesn't seem to be a way to turn off ONLY peeking/heads up notifications that I have been able to find. Maybe HeadsOff will be compatible with N before long.
I can't reply to any notifications in my notifications panel. How do I turn it back on?

Lockscreen show all Notifications not working

Hey everyone, got a 6T for my brother and found a strange issue with it.
If you set any kind of lock (pin/password/pattern) AOD & lockscreen won't show any notification from any app even if you select show all notifications/hide sensible notifications or even don't show notifications at all.
Any ideas or suggestions?

There's no led notification on nothing phone, only glyph, someone is working on an App to modify how it's working but it requires Root at the moment :/
I just remembered about the Glimpse Notifications app on the Play Store, it has recurring notifications and a self test section just did it a test quickly then and it seemed to work (glyph lit up, vibration as normal) so that might be a solution in the meantime
