SOLVED (sounds & notifications settings)
Before when notifications (and most importantly the alarm) went off I am 99 % sure I used to get the popup menu at the bottom of the lock screen with options to either dismiss or pause the alarm. Lately this option on lock screen has now disappeared. Now when the alarm wakes me in the morning I have to unlock the phone, tap the notifications bar on top of the screen to get to the notifications menu and tap the alarm to get to the pop up menu for the chosen notification. If you just want to snooze the alarm, you'll be wide awake by the end of this series of touches.
Do people get the notification popup menu on their lock screens? I sure would like to get this back. Anyone?
PS: I think that this was OK on several occations between my last program install (I think this was updating the cookies home tab to 1.6) and when I first noticed the problem, but I can't really swear on it.
PS2: I have searched to find a thread with this issue, but have just found slightly relating topics (ie in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=612775&highlight=notification+lock it seems a guy had to unlock to dismiss but I'm not sure if that was due to password lock. And I did try the "Clean notifications" with pmClean as suggested by post #6. I'm not really sure if this worked though, because it says that the number of notifications are 19 both before and after I apply the cleanup. Does this mean the program doesn't work?)
do you have bsb tweaks installeD? Turn on 'dismiss x notifications' tweak. That reenables the snooze and what not,
also,
settings tab - menu - all settings - sounds & notific - notifications.
call up teh notification you are interested in (new message, for example) and tick 'show on screen'.
Give those a try, see if they help. (Soft reset to make sure teh settings are changed.)
Thanks so much. It was the sounds & notifications settings that did it.
Feeling kind of silly now that it was just a simple setting . But I'm pretty sure I haven't changed it myself so I guess I just assumed it would be something more severe.
Anyhow. PROBLEM SOLVED.
Problem solved! I also forgot that I had already done this before I did a hard reset! Thanks for this post though!
Hi Guys,
I have got the same problem (no dismiss showing up in lock screen), but there is no option for alarms in the Notification Settings. How did you solve it in the end?
Cheers
Hey I am new to these forums and the CM7 ROM for the shift. I put it on last night and I am having some trouble with the notification settings. On the stock sense ROM I was able to set my notifications to vibrate when I got one, mainly a text message. On the CM7 ROM for notifications I can only put it to "no noise" at all or a ringtone, like a beep. I would like to have a vibrate option but I cannot seem to find one. I appreciate all the help. Let me know if you need any more information, thanks.
try this: go into settings then sound setting, then under general tap on vibrate and set it to always..
or u can open up ur messages then hit menu and then settings the scroll down to notifications make sure notifications are checked then go to notification settings and tap vibrate and set it to always

That worked! Thank you, I didnt even think about going about it that way.
I had this problem too...
Go to Settings>CyanogenMod Settings>Interface>Notification Power Widget
Now check "Notification Power Widget" and then go into widget buttons.
Pick whatever tickles your fancy, but make sure toggle sound is on. You can also change the types of sound in the bottom "Sound Modes" Category and you caan change the order if you hit "Back" then "Widget Button Order".
Now reboot your device and when it turns back on, slide down the notification bar and at the top there should be a toggle which looks like Vibrate/Sound/Silent and that's how you change the sound!
I am also having this issue. i have no vibrate on any text messaging or even gmail .
I have the newest cm7, have tried turning vibrate on where ever i could. Wiped and re flashed but have the same problem .
phone will only vibrate on call and when i change from silent to vibrate.
Hello all
I seem to have a spot of bother, I had two notifications on my device.
I Long Pressed the notification until the screen changes, Giving you a option to Snooze or press the little "i" button.
When you press Snooze, how the hell do you get your notification back?
I use Rotation to force all into Landscape.
I done the Snooze on the apps notification, and i cannot get it to re-appear, I use the notification as a quick toggle to change from Force to Auto
I also done it on ShareKM
and i cannot get neither of them Back.
Even when i go to:
Settings / Sound & Notification / App Notifications
WHen i configure to allow Heads up etc, Still nothing.
Not even after a reboot.
Its obviously not a Snooze button, its more of a Here hide this notification FOREVER!!!
Anyway has anyone got a little more experience with how this works?
I dont want to have to re-flash for the sake of 2 notifications lol

Nope never found a fix. I eventually just re flashed the ROM because I disabled SMS notifications and didn't have a choice. Now I'm being very careful around that button.

Bummer, guess that will be me as well
unsnoozing notifications
I suppose this is too late, but perhaps it can help someone else. I found the option to remove the notification snooze (or filter) under privacy.
Go to settings, privacy, and then filter notifications. You'll need to delete the app in the list. I had to reboot for my changes to take effect.
Hi I just got a Nexus 6p and its been great but I have low vision and if I keep the option turned on the phone, it becomes very laggy so I would like to only use it when I need to.
Help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you .
This isn't exactly what you wanted, but it's kind of close...
I use ADW as my launcher, which allows me to set custom shortcuts on my home screen. Other launchers might offer the same functionality.
I long pressed on my home screen and selected the Add tab on the popup. I then tapped Custom Shortcut, and tapped "Pick your activity." Next, I tapped Activities, scrolled down to Settings and expanded the list. It's rather long, but in that list there is one called "Accessibility(.Settings$AccessibilitySettingsActivity)". I selected that one, gave it a name (what it displays under the icon), and pressed OK. This created a settings gear icon on my home screen that when tapped goes straight to the accessibility options in the settings menu, and then you can tap the toggle for Magnification.
Alternatively, you should be able to do the same thing with Tasker if you have it installed and it's a bit easier. Make a new Task, give it a title (anything) and press the plus to add a step. Select Settings, then Accessibility settings (first option). There is some "if" options, but you can just tap your back button to go back to the step list. Create a widget for Tasker (1x1 task) and select the name of the task you just created. You then need to select an icon for the "widget" by tapping the icon in the lower right that looks like 9 squares in a grid. There are a bunch of built in icons you can choose from, or use your own. The result will be an icon on your desktop that goes to the accessibility options screen, allowing you to quickly toggle the magnification gesture.
Again, sorry this isn't exactly what you asked for, but it would save some taps. Luckily the mag gesture toggle is high enough in the list of options that it should always be on the screen when you open the accessibility settings, so you won't need to scroll.
Lastly, if you are rooted, you could use Tasker to also hit the toggle for you. If you want instructions for that, please do let me know and I'd be happy to share how to do that. It would allow you to tap the "widget" and it would then launch the accessibility settings, wait a second and then tap the toggle, and go back to the home screen. That way you wouldn't need to toggle it yourself.

Thanks a lot!
So it sounds like theres no way to make a widget the will toggle it specifically, without rooting my device.
And if I do root it and use Tasker it will take almost the same time as if I didn't.
If thats no other way then I guess I should root it even though Id prefer not too.
Unless theres another way, Instructions would be great! Thanks again!
Are you familiar with Tasker? It's a paid app, but it's absolutely worth it and you'll find lots of uses for it. I use it to auto reply to text messages while I'm driving, mute my phone when I'm at work (calendar based) turn on wifi when I'm at home (location based), etc.
First thing you need to do is find the location of the toggle on the screen. Go to Developer Settings and turn on "Show Pointer Location". This will make a gray bar at the top of your screen that lists your X and Y coordinates at the top when you are touching the screen. Go to the accessibility settings and touch the toggle, taking note of what the X and Y coordinates are for that touch input.
To simulate touch input, can make a task that opens the accessibility settings as I described above, then add a "wait" command (Task > Wait), enter a value of 1 second. Next enter a command for Code and select Run Shell. Under the command, type "input tap x y" where x and y are the x and y coordinates that you found for the toggle. Make sure the "use root" box is checked. Lastly, add a Tasker command to go to the home screen (back to where you started with the "widget").
Back all the way out of Tasker to save that task, then go back in and press the play button at the bottom left side to test your setup. You should see it launch the accessibility settings, wait a second, toggle, and go home. The first time you run it you will need to grant Tasker root permissions, so be ready for that. If you're not quick to approve it, the task may proceed and go to your home screen before you press approve, so you might need to run it again a second time after you approve it.
If you need more help with, or have any questions, please do let me know. Happy to help.

I just realized I need to buy an adapter for that USB C lol.
Before I go ahead with all of this work, your completely sure there is no other way to toggle magnification without rooting?
Thanks!

Sorry for the delay. I am not aware of any widgets. I couldn't find a widget on the Play Store or light Google searching.
Regarding the adapter, the 6p should have come with a short USB A to USB C cable specifically for connecting to a PC.

Have you used the built in magnification gesture? You turn it on in accessibility settings, then when you need something to be bigger, just tap the screen 3 times rapidly. You can use pinch to zoom to adjust the text size. When you're finished with it, tap the screen 3 times again. I use it when an app's text is just too small.

Haha Yes I have tried it you have to tap your finger 3 times to magnify which means every time you tap something once it waits to see if you will tap more times and cause slight lag.
Niceeee idea bro, i will try it

No problem!
Lol I was so excited for my new phone I never checked but I found it !
Thanks I will root it when I get the chance.
i have the same exact problem,i absolutely love the feature as i wouldn't be able to use any phone with out it but it also gets frustrating sometimes (the touch delay) for example in the dialer app or Instagram.
a toggle in the notification panel would be great or an app through which you specifically enable/disable the gestures for each individual app.
any other alternative would be appreciated, somebody posted the same issue here with a possible fix (which i am not exactly sure how to implement) https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39685

Nice to know I'm not the only one.
Sorry for the late reply been busy with school. It would be nice to have this option maybe like a button shortcut .
Hey guys so that way of using tasker is very slow and not feasible.
Is there any other way of making a quick toggle magnification gestures. It would be nice if I could hold the menu button to enable it. (IPhone tripple tap home button to toggle)
Thanks again.
I have low vision as well and have also found that leaving the magnification gesture turned on causes the phone to be laggy even when I don't actually have the magnification turned on. Instead of using that, I rooted my phone, changed the global DPI and I use App Settings (an Xposed module) to increase the font size in some apps or force the standard DPI in apps that have issues with the custom one.
There's a gestural workaround I've employed: if instead of just putting down my finger I drag my finger slightly (in any direction) then the lag almost disappears. Doing this helps a lot but obviously its a bit of an awkward gesture.

How did you set it up?
There's no set up. I just do that gesture to get the scrolling to stop when I have magnification enabled.

What is with the small, fast, pointless notifications popping up from some apps. Facebook & texts seem to be the only apps I have seem activate the pop-up.
Why are there no settings?
What's the point if I can adjust timing or actions?
I am a few years removed from Samsung but I imagine this is a TouchWiz feature.
I think you're seeing he edge lighting notifications. Try turning it off in settings --> display --> edge lighting
Nope. The small pop-up at the top that displays incoming messages. Edge lighting seems to work when it wants to but this is a true peek notification at the top that goes away after 1 sec, barely time to realize it is there.

For Facebook:

Looking for the globAl controls for this popup. Is it TouchWiz? Is it Android? Where are the settings?

You only get the little bubble pop-ups if Edge Lighting is on...however, if Edge Lighting is off, you get bigger pop-ups and the ability to reply within that pop-up. It only lets you do this if the Edge Lighting is off though. I've been searching and trying to get this to work right since I got the phone and just now figured it out. The Edge Lighting does nothing for me, so I'm happy to turn that feature off in order to reply within my pop-up notifications.
Turned off edge light but left panel on. I see within edge lighting there are app selections so this now makes sense. I am now getting popups as well as in training controls but it surprises me that I can control which apps. Inbox doesn't pop-up for instance but messaging does.
Does anyone experience problems when taking pictures with the messenger app, I cant seem to send the pictures. When I press the send button nothing happens. Also, I dont get popups from the email and instagram app when I use the phone, only a sound. Is it possible to regulate this?
Did you figure this out?

When you hook up the phone, you will need to confirm USB debugging popup on the phone and also access to data.
Get the USB drivers from here:
