When I get a text, I noticed neither the Notification window nor the lockscreen will say whom it is from.
If you are in the notification panel you can click the notification and it will take you to the SMS app where you can see who sent the message, but if you click on it in the lockscreen all you get is an empty pop-up window in the newly-created lockscreen page.
Is everyone else experiencing this?
Neat new feature, the lockscreen pages, but I think the interaction with SMS messages is a miss... perhaps they released it before testing that.

Exactly the same here, and it has become very annoying, so far my only complaint of this phone.

I think it was an oversight...
It will probably get fixed in the next build, but those are usually few and far between when dealing with Samsung and AT&T.

Did you all tick this setting?
That setting is checked, although even when that is enabled, it shows on the lockscreen but it doesnt open the SMS app when you click it. Only an extra transparent window opens up in the lock screen.

I can't figure that transparent box either. Rather annoying, but when a text comes in the preview works in the status bar.

I get the box also...
But i have my message icon in the shortcut down on bottom of lockscreen. If you stay your swipe on the icon it launches messages...
Hope someone sheds light on the Grey box!

Just pull down on the lock screen and it would let you tap it and then it will take you to the message..
Or when the message is first receive you can tap it
Works for me

This box?
Try swiping within thr box (as it says) to open messages. It is so you dont accidentally 'read' the message in your pocket.

How this works is when you get a text. Click on the text on the lock screen. A transparent box opens. Whem that box opens swipe your finger in that box. It will take you directly to the text from that person to respond. It works as its intended.
Go Sms works great

Hm.. Seems redundant since sweeping the icon does the same?
Yellow is my swiping action to launch messages

i miss the preview message on my lg optimus g that would give you a little preview of what is in the text, that way i can choose if i want to answer it or not from the lock screen instead of going all the way into the messaging app. also if you get a text message and unlock the phone, at the bottom the text message icon has no number showing how many text messages waiting while in the notification bar it says i have a text waiting.

Preview in Notification but NOT Lock Screen
So I like seeing the SMS preview (name and first line of text) in my notification bar pull down, but not on the lock screen. That's just kinda weird to me, they should be separate. I don't want anyone to preview my messages whyile my phone is password or pattern locked.
Anyone have a clue how to configure this???
The "more messages" icon is always displayed in the top status bar? I open up my menu and clear any pop-ups but the icon still displays? Isa there a way to find out what's causing this or to disable the icon?

Post a screenshot of your statusbar and one of your notification shade.

Ok, here's a couple of pics. There are no messages in the cue, yet the icon is always visible?

You have 4 apps that generate ongoing (permanent notifications). There's probably an option in the menu of all those apps for invisible/transparent notification icon. Problem is, the icon becomes transparent but the space is still occupied. And with that network traffic counter, your statusbar is full, even if no icons show.

Anyone know what the top left notification icon is? I can't figure out how to get rid of it... unrooted stock user
@jayrod101 it seems from Samsung Watchon app.

Pull down the notification bar, long tap on the icon and select 'App info' too see which app that icon is belong to.
It was the watchon app... thx!
First off the S8+ is gorgeous yada yada.....but here are some of my observations.
a) Notifications show at top as an icon but there is no preview, floating notification or anything of the sort to let me know if I care or not about the notification without pulling the tray.
b) Tray is white and hard to read. There doesn't seem to be clear breaks in between the notifications so everything runs together rather than a hard line separation.
c) The notifications on the lock screen are simply small icons with no detail, even though I have the "Notifications Icons only" unchecked in settings
d) Touchwiz doesn't rotate to landscape. Everything is customizable enough so Samsung doesn't have me running to replace with a launcher but I need it to rotate. May revert back to Nova......
I have the same issue with a). For c) double tap the home button and it takes you to lock screen with notifications. The icons are for AOD.

My complaints so far are Fingerprint scanner location, and the Bixby button. Why not just make an app for Bixby? If it's good, people will use it. If not, it's cause it sucks. To add a physical button locked to Bixby is just friggin lazy. Apple wouldn't even do that.
Update:
Thanks for the tip on the double tap of the home button on the lock screen.
Another issue is there is no way to programatically pull down the tray without dislocating my thumb. I installed a third party floating widget that fixes this.

Swipe down on the fingerpint sensor and it brings the notification shade down and you can swipe it back up. Very h andy

Nova and other third party launchers let you pull down the tray by swiping down anywhere on the screen.
Go to touchwiz settings, enable the apps button (this disables the pull down to apps). The pull down gesture will now open app the notification tray.
Where do you even find TouchWiz settings?

Long press the home screen or pinch zoom in home screen, you will get option for widgets, and launcher settings
But notification gesture is not working..

Yep, turning that on didn't work for the notification shade. That's why I asked if there was some setting I missed

Right, but we are talking about swiping down on the screen to get the notification tray, not the fingerprint reader, which does not appear possible like one user said it would.

I'm a dork. I didn't pay enough attention. I thought the question was in relation to the earlier mention of the fingerprint scanner swipe.

I tried finding the swipe down on home screen too to no avail. I really do sort of like the fingerprint swipe though since it works from anywhere.

Hi all,
Anyone else noticed this on their PH-1?
I'll get a notification eg new WhatsApp message. I'll open the app or click the notification to read my message. When I leave the app, the notification remains in the status bar. I have to pull down the notification shade and exit again to clear it.
Very odd behaviour. Happens with every app I've got (eg FB, Gmail, text message, etc).
What would cause this and any ideas how to fix? I've not got any mods etc running. I am rooted and using the latest P beta.
Best, Neil

I have this issue when I hide my NavBar and use gesture apps like OnePlus Gesture or X Home Bar. I am hiding my navbar with the Hide Nav Bar app.
When I use the navbars as normal, my notifications clear as they should. Kind of annoying as I Like to hide my navbar.

Ah, you might be on to something there! I'm using a combination of the xda Navigation Gestures with Swipe Nav. Really love this set up and didn't imagine its impact on notifications!
Bummer.
Having the same issue :/ is there a solution? I don't want to go back to the Nav Bar!

Did you try reporting the problem to the dev?
I feel like it's more of an app issue rather than Android itself.
