App notifications setting not obeyed

After updating S4 to stock 4.3, app notification settings (in app info) are not obeyed. Upon restarting the device, notifications appear from apps (lux, tasker, swipepad) for which notifications are unchecked.
What should be done?

[Q] Using Tasker to screen on when I get a notification?

I want the screen to turn on when I get a kik notification, and it is not built in to the app itself. Is there any way to use tasker or any other app to accomplish this?

Plenty of them:
AcDisplay

Peek:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jedga.peek.free
DynamicNotifications:

I use Peek Pro, works pretty well, the only problem is, if you wanna wake the phone only when you get a kik notification, you will have to blacklist all other apps
Also if you are on lollipop you could flash modified framework, with Ambient display enabled

Perfect! Thank you.

Remove individual notifications from Lockscreen (stock)?

So, AICP (custom ROM) has an option to let you disable individual apps from putting notifications on the lockscreen.
But stock ROM doesn't get this granular. You can remove all notifications or none.
Anyone know of an Xposed mod or something else to help with this?
I have two apps that I want to see in my pull-down but do NOT want to see on my lockscreen.

If I get you right - there is an option to block certain apps from showing notification in the Moto app

The Moto app only affects moto display. Not lockscreen. Notification manager for xposed works (currently not available for marshmallow). You can control all sorts of notification settings.

I'm not rooted, but if it has an app manager like stock (and in recent memory, Touchwiz) can you uncheck the "Show Notifications" checkbox? Sorry if that doesn't help :/

The problem with that is it removes notifications completely for the app. In Stock, it's all or nothing unless the app itself has some priority settings (which are few and far between). The only way that I've been able to find is by root and that xposed app.

Thanks for your reply but don't keep activities is already unticked.
When I use any applock it works fine.but when I open the 'applock app' and swipe it from the recent activities it's permanently terminated.and then locked apps like whatsapp can be opened without password bcz the applock is not running in background.
Same happens when I swipe jio4gvoice from recent apps the app notification form the status bar disappears and no calls can be made from phones built in dialer.i think u got my point now.

Stop screen wake on notification

I'm getting really annoyed with the fact that all sorts of completely unimportant apps on my phone decide to wake the screen when they have a notification. I am OK with these notifications being on the lock screen, I just don't want it to keep randomly waking up.
I just can't find a setting anywhere to disable this behaviour. Is there anything I can do with root since apparently there is no way to disable this in the standard settings UI?

This is just how sony messages app works. Use a different app for messages to disable it. Samsung does this with their stock messaging app as well and its annoying. Running xposed there are a few tricks to stop it if you wanted to use teh stock messaging app for whatever reason.

It's not the Sony messages app (which I don't use). It's all sorts of low importance apps on my phone. I do want the notifications, but not the screen wake.
The worst offender is the game TwoDots. Every time it notifies me of new things happening in the game, the screen wakes. Even if I ban ALL notifications from the app, it still wakes the screen when it would've notified me (I can tell from logcat). I just wish I could ban all apps other than phone calls from waking the screen.

Never once had any app other than messages do that, Id be uninstalling them immediately lol You can run xposed and gravitybox to fix this though.

I haven't bothered with Xposed since Nougat. Just using Magisk.
Ugh even the Tapatalk app is doing it too.

I really don't know what's going wrong. I don't face any of these issues, with none of my apps, even Sony messaging app works without waking my screen up.
