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?

Got rid of the issue easily finally by Blocking my Notifications access
Hi,
This has worked for me since yesterday, earlier my phone use to get locked every ten seconds or so and I was not at all able to use it.
I was having a gut feeling that the issue of locking and changing wallpaper is face most of the times when some Message is about to arrive or some notification from some application is poping up on screen.
For this yesterday what i did is as follows:
Settings > Notifications > Pop-up notifications are disabled
When device is locked
Don't show notifications at all
App notifications
Messaging
blocked
Notification access
Theme chooser - It can be allowed as ticked only,no other app
Filter notifications
To do this , when a notification pops up,
say mostly it is for low battery which will lock the screen almost after few seconds.
Press and hold the notification popup message and click on the icon to filter it then it will show under Filter notifications tab.
Select above things in Settings menu and Im sure the problem might get solved for you also.
Only drawback being you cannot see the notification on Locked screen but the blinking green and white light tells about new notifications.
All d best. shared this because since yesterday my phone did not got locked even a single time.I was also visiting this page for solution, happy to provide one for everyone if it works.
Main thing is to block the popup notifications , as soon as these are disabled. Screen wil not get locked.changes might reflect after a phone restart.
Have a good day.

Hey guys, first post on XDA.
Also my first Huawei phone, bought it for a good price in China. I dare to say great when its about 1 / 2.5 of the price i payed for my Edge 6.
Its a AL10 with B197. First impressions are good. The UI is "worse" than Samsung and certainly needs time to get used to.
Its quick as lightning and for example batterytime, which ive started to value very high, is more than doubled.
Notifications on the statusbar works fine, Facebook, Whatsapp, Gmail and so on. But they all refuse to work on the lockscreen, im yet to get a single one out there.
In settings -> messages/statusbar ive enabled lockscreen (and everything else) for all apps, but that helps nada.
RIght now im using the app Next to get around it, but surely i must have missed something?
I have the same problem woth latest software. I check every option like dont kill app after lockscreen vut it now works. When I close app or lock screen notification not working till I switch for example whatsup then I see 10 new. Messeges
Does it work if you change the battery mode to "performance"? For me, absolutely no other option allowed apps to receive their alarms and show up in the notification bar when they're supposed to.
The nice thing about this change is that I couldn't notice any disadvantage as far as battery life.
I changed now for for normal (in my language is normal inteligent and ultra save) I will check tomorrow phone beahviour.
Try this. Go to Settings, lockscreen & passwords, screen lock style and choose magazine unlock. For me this is the only screen lock style that works for lock screen notifications. Let me know if it works for you.

I have this enable. I use code method or fingerprint unlock. Still the same ****...
No luck here either, cant for the life of me get notifications to work. Everything is enabled, all apps are turned on when screens goes off, max performance, tried different themes, etc etc.
Using the app Nils now to atelast get something.
I cheek battery drainige when app are not kill.
Its very sad all apps are enable option to not kill after lock screen. Restaring apps eneable. In first software version b180 I think everything was fine. In emui 4.0 after update much worst.

Problem sloved! Do not kill app by system cleaner it means you have quadrant or whatever it called on down your screen. If you celan your last apps notification not work. When I. Kill apps via ex task manager lock screen notification comes very good testing on fb and messanger. So do not celan last up which you want receive notification
I get notifications for other apps but I don't get any for the Facebook Groups app or Facebook app. I also do not get any badge counts on these two apps. Anyone get badge counts or notifications for these two apps? The notification settings are the same as my other apps that's DO get notifications.

Hey man, did you find a solution to this, I have the same problem and it's driving me nuts!
You must use magazine unlock, in Themes
Wysłane z mojego HUAWEI NXT-L29 przy użyciu Tapatalka
I finally got mine to work. Yes you have to use magazine unlock. The other themes with different lock screen seems to disable the notification popoug (probably due to compatability). Nevertheless, if you are using EMUI 5.0, go to <Notification & Status bar> then <Notification Management> and click on the gear icon on top. I selected "When device is locked, show all notification content". The other individual whatsapp notification setting should be applied accordingly too.
Notifications on apps like whatsapp, gmail etc, are very unreliable when the the screen has been off a while. We have the same problem with the Le Max 2 in our house.
Anybody experiencing the same?
No problem here at the moment.

Do you use greenify? That tends to sleep apps, there's an option to keep notifications on so you can get them still. Seems like probably another issue though.

I'm suffering exactly the same issue. When I receive any push message from Hangout or Whatsapp the phone does not play any notification sound, even though when I turn on the screen I can see the notification on the lockscreen and on the notification bar if I unlock by fingerprint.
This morning I realized that if you plug in headphones the notification message sound will get through.... quite weird....
It looks to me we will have to wait for the following OTA and see if it gets fixed. By the way my phone is Chinese/EU version.
Problem fixed easily:
to to the phone's manager/ power saving management, then the lock screen app protection, you need to set those apps 'protected' , so when the screen is off, they are still protected in the background. you may also want to check the align wake up which is another power saving feature. basically, you need to let any apps you want to have notification stay 'protected' when the phone is sleeping. Make sure also check under setting/ notification management, to enable those apps......
As many know the beta went live for Sprint, Unlocked, and T-Mobile customers earlier today so I thought (since I didn't see one posted already) that a thread of our experiences with it so far would be nice to have.
So far here is a list of bugs some comments have posted in this thread:
Laggier than Nougat
Live Messages force close
Adhell2 frequent force closes
Bluetooth fails to turn on until reboot
Random reboots
Personally, it feels snappier in nearly all operations when using Nova Launcher Prime, but it's when I switched back to TouchWiz that I've noticed that it feels much more responsive than it did before. It feels much better.now and I'm going to use Touchwiz for a few days and see if it's worth using now.
The one area I was really hoping that would have seen an improvement would be swiling to the right for Bixby, which feels worse now somehow. While Bixby seems a little better when activating with voice, and the new interface for Bixby home does look nicer (personal opinion, obviously) the actually swiping is still a slow mess.

its kinda laggy. lots of apps have been force closing. battery life has been pretty good tho
Keep getting an app called mobile downloader in notification panel up to the left, can't clear it can only snooze it, wtf, I like a tidy left notification panel especially on the left

I got this also on sprint, I just forced closed it. Comes back with a reboot but whatever, the notification is gone
I like a tidy notification panel/Status bar as well and I'm now noticing more than usual notifications that I don't like:
"so and so app is running in the background" and I can't disable it. That's annoying.

I'm on T-Mobile. You may need to do a cache clear and reboot it. I know that can clear up lag after an update sometimes. Always worth a shot if you haven't already.

It's stable, has silly bugs but on a whole it's much to do about nothing.
It's not a case of Samsung at all, it's android itself. Google just don't bring much to the table anymore
samsung keyboard forced closed but came back in a reboot, usually use gboard though, so im going back to that
I have been running 8.0 Beta 1 for about 8 hours now, and have also reverted back to TouchWiz from Nova so I can view the full experience. So far, everything is faster. No issues with any content or apps already loaded from 7. I have only noticed one small, split-second glitch so far, and that was an animation delay returning to the Home screen from using an app. 30 apps sitting in Recents right now, so could have happened just the same on 7. Regardless, I am completely content, and have already forgotten that were talking about a beta, let alone Beta 1. Surprisingly good job Samsung, and I'm still in shock that we even have Oreo already, to be honest... Looking forward to further testing and the finished release.
My S8 is my only cellphone phone , I consider myself a Android enthusiasts. I love tweaking settings.and I'm always on my phone. Do you think the beta is stable enough ? to install theOreo beta i have already downloaded it I just want to see, if the apps are closing , crashing, buggy ,rebooting ect. The occasional hiccup will be no big deal thanks in advance for your response
Does anyone else's Live Messages force close while using the messaging app? I ask because I previously installed the Note 8 Live Messages mod before I installed the Oreo Update and I'm not sure if that may be the reason why it is now force closing.

Personally it has been snappier with no app crashes. I have had Facebook crash and some other app I don't remember, but it was something else I had installed and not a major component and it has only been once for both, but Facebook had issues all week since I re-enabled it. It has just now been working better (POS app anyway.)
That and the annoying to me notification panel are the only things. No bugs, lag, etc but I can't speak on battery yet... So far it seems in line, but I don't really know until tomorrow.

No problems with Messages here, but I haven't modded it from the Note app so I dunno, and this version doesn't have the Live messages feature still, so I'm going to guess that might be the issue there.

It still isn't as fast at going back to home as other apps, but it's a far better transition than it has been.

Ok, phone just rebooted while sitting at my desk. Nothing was going on and the last app I had opened was dialer. Hoping that doesn't turn into a trend.

thought poweramp was not working, turns out it had lost my music folder on the sd card and I had to point it at it again.
How is the battery life?
I have been experiencing the same issue. Whenever I select it on the keyboard the message "Live Messenger has closed" appears and the phone just vibrates on me. I tried a reboot to get it to work and still no change. I am also constantly getting "New Messaging Features" appearing in my message bar, over and over and when I click "Start" I do not get the code and get it completely registered. Not sure if that is adding to the issue as well.
