2nd screen notification time - LG V20 Questions & Answers

Has anyone figured out how to lengthen the time the notification stays on the second screen?
there was a hidden menu on the V10 that you could access using the app "quick short cut maker " and use it to search for "signboard test" to change notification time from default 3 secs up to 30 secs
anything similar on the v20 ?

Yeah I can't believe that isn't an option out of the box. I gave up and bought a Samsung gear S3.

Quick Remote doesn't show up in notification

So I've noticed that if I initially tap the quick remote its just a blank area. If I then open it fully up, the next time it opens it will show in the notification pull down. Anyone else get this?

[Q] Set screen to not turn on after I receive a text

I bought an LG G2 yesterday after changing my mind and not buying a Note 3 instead. It's the T-Mobile version in black (fingerprint magnet, no white ones in stock unfortunately). I'm coming from a Galaxy S2, and everything feels amazing compared to it. There's one thing I don't like, and that I can't figure out... When I get a text on my LG G2, the screen lights up, every single time. I'm a pretty heavy text user, and I average about 10,000 texts a month. Sometimes I'm in a lecture and I can't text back or use my phone, but it's sitting in my pocket with the screen on wasting my battery and opening up all kinds of apps. How do I disable this? Thanks.
I know you can change text apps that have this option.

If you are using the stock TXT app. Open the App/hit button for the menu, then settings/notifications. you should be able to do what you want there.

That's what I tried, but there's nothing about the screen in there.
I have notifications enabled, new message pop-up enabled, preview enabled, notification sound (text ringtone), vibrate set to always, and repeat alert set to every 2 minutes. Besides those settings, there's nothing, and none of them control the screen unfortunately.

Cant you just on click "notifications display message notification" ??
I'm using the app SMS pop-up to manage all my SMS notification.
The stock app has it's notifications all turned off.
As for SMS popup, there is a setting to keep the screen off when SMS is received.
Well.. I don't like the screen to turn on as well (I don't use any lock screens) and also, I like the pop up feature.

It's just a check box, so if I uncheck that box, I don't get any notifications.

Although that's not the optimal solution, I guess it'll have to do. I'll try that right now, thank you for your help.

Notification led not always working when receiving mail, sms or missed call...

Hi,
The notification led is only working randomly...
Sometimes when i get an sms (missed call...) the led is blinking, sometimes is doesn't
When it doesn't i push the on/off button to power the screen and see the 'bell' having a notification (as i did know of course ).
So when i push the on/off button once more to power off the screen, the led is blinking as it should have...
Anyone has this issue too ?
Install glimpse notification and will always see led notifications blinking at missing event(whatever call,SMS,email,viber)

You even have option for double tap to sleep from lock screen if you want with this app.

Thanks for the tip. Will try it when no solution is found
Still, my other phones work quite well on this matter...this phone has its moods on notifying.
So question stays : has anyone have this problem too ?

Keep in mind that one more reason for using it not only at Axon but previous phone is that I have the option every time receive any kind event the screen wake up automatically and stay on for 5 second and then turn off automatically and begins the led always blinking until pick up and see the event.
If you having the device at jeans pocket there's a option not wake up the screen but only blinking the led notification.
Many manufacturers don't have that option that's why for me is must have app.

Is indeed right !
Some issues like : wake up screen automatically when receiving, not seeing 'what' i did miss unless i tapp on the horrible 'bell' thing...could have been better for sure ! Or at least customizable.

Yes it's bit of annoying but for that bug or better a bad ZTE feature the only solution is third party lock screen replacement like next lock screen.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.next&hl=el
It works great also with glimpse notification.(only the double tap to sleep feature not working with next lock screen)
Or just we have to wait until ZTE make the bell optional.

Glimpse notification is a help but next lock screen for me it wasn't (not always working correctly too)
Now i am using a simple app called NiLS Lock screen :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.roymam.android.notificationswidget&hl=nl
It is very simple and effective. No layover over the existing lock screen, so another swipe to go to the stock lock screen is not necessary.
Also you can tap left on a message to delete it, go to the app. etc...
The good thing f.e. is when you delete a message like gmail with this app, the message is also effectively gone in gmail, so you do not have to do this action twice in gmail. For other apps the same benefit i think.
Just give it a try too

Second Screen Notification Display Time?

...they go away way too quickly! Is there a way or a mod that can make message notifications linger on the second screen instead of instantly converting them to badge notifications?

I used to have a V10, it used to have a hidden menu called "signboard test" and using an app called "shortcut maker" to find it, where you could increase the notification time from the default 3 secs up to 30 secs ,
It doesn't seem to exist on the v20.
If anyone knows a workaround I would be keen as well

Wow... In the v20 in titanium backup, There are a few apps that are called signboard but I highly second this!
Love to be able to increase that time as well.

Getting a reminder keeps screen on indefinitely

Until I select snooze or acknowledge or dismiss. This for sure contributes to draining the battery. Any way to put the reminders on a timed amount then turn off the screen? Help appreciated!

I have similar issue. I get reminder on the lock screen( not using always on display) for a calendar event and it would go away after what ever screen timeout setting is, then it comes right back. It would repeat this forever until calendar event is dismissed.
Is this what you get?

Yes! Don't like the idea of having screen on all night should a reminder pop up

Did you try going to settings then notifications then scroll all the way down to the bottom and select notification reminder and then select off (it is off by default on my phone and I don't have your issue).
Mine is already off, hmm.

Did you setup as new phone or restore from a backup. In my very recent experience restoring from backup causes all sorts of issues. My battery life was not bad but was not anywhere near my wife's S8 (more or less similar usage patterns). I would be on 20% whilst she would still have more than 50% remainig charge. I finally decided to take the plunge and reset the phone and do a fresh install. The result is a battery that lasts twice as long as before.
My 2 cents.
Is it from the Samsung reminder app? You can try do not disturb mode. But before you do that go into Settings -> App -> App manager -> Reminder -> Notifications
Make sure Set as priority is turned off.
Also try changing, from the same menu as above, On lock screen from hide content to do not show notifications, if that applies.
But it may not help too much, looking into the permissions it says "Prevent phone from sleeping" under Other app capabilities...
I know it's a pain but if you set a reminder, it makes sense that the screen will stay on for the fact that it should catch your eye and cause you to look at why it's on, thus reminding you about whatever you needed to do as soon as possible. Would be nice to disable that function for those that do not want this though.

The reminders are from what I have set in or via Google. I understand what you are saying but the AOD could just as easily have the reminder versus the entire screen on (semi-bright I might add) for the entire time until it's acknowledge. As soon as I touch the phone, I'd expect the reminder to pop right back up---every other phone I've had did this including my old Galaxy S4.......was just hoping there was a timer we could set or at least limit the time the screen stays on with the reminder
