how to make screen to light up when receiving messages? - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hello,
I just got the S8 and can't figure out how to get this to work. Whenever I get a text I'd like my phone to wake from sleep (screen wake up) like iPhone. I don't want to turn on the Always on Display.
So any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Screen timeout for messages

Today I was texting and when I got a text I would grab the phone and try to type but as soon as I got to the phone the screen turned off. seemed like the timing is like a few seconds too short. Is there a way to change this setting? It's not the normal screen timeout. Thanks in advance.
on a side note... has anyone found a way to turn off the battery notifications for low power and fully charged.

Display stays lit when on charge...

Hi
I was wondering if someone can assist me with probably a simple issue.
During the night my phone is alway on charge and during the night I may receive a text message, whats app message or even emails and notice that my display stays lit until I manually press the power button.
Is there anyway in the settings I can set it that when its on charge it will dim the screen or switch it off.
When Its not on charge it performs fine.
Could it be I need to use an app to resolve this problem?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Please help!

I have bought the new Samsung galaxy s2 as I've just upgraded from my htc hd2!
I love the phone and features but I cant not turn the function off where it speaks to me who's phoning! Its so unprofessional when I'm at work and my phones on a quiet ring and everyone in the office hears who's calling me. Especially as some of my mates have the wildest nick names!
I thought it was something to do with driving mode but it still seems to do it on some contacts and not others.
Any help would be appreciated
Turn off driving mode.
I have turned off driving mode... it still does it on certain contacts
its really annoying!
Have you got some accessibility function turned on?
No nothing is turned on it
Ok, just for fun double press the home buttom and then press cancel at the voice command prompt. On the screen that follows with the large icons look and see if there is a green line under the car. If there is one tap the icon to turn off driving mode and this will fix your problem.
I really appreciate your help but I 100% guarantee it is turned off. I've check all them settings. grrrr!!!!
It's only driving mode that turns on the option to read out notifications so somehow it's turned on.

Samsung S5 Lock Screen Notifications

I received lollipop earlier this week and ever since then when I get a new notification for a email or text message for example my phone's screen doesn't turn on. My LED notification light will turn on, but that's about it. I'm using the stock lock screen for the record. Does anyone know if there is a way to change this? When I'm at work I keep my phone on vibrate and the screen turning itself on is what usually gets my attention.
If anyone has any input on this situation it would be greatly appreciated
Thanks!

Help with screen issue please.

Hope someone can help.
Since the August update the screen on my Mi A1 keeps turning itself on. Only way I can stop it is if I put the phone in aeroplane mode.
It will be sitting on the desk doing nothing and the screen just comes on, no alerts (I don't have app alerts on besides phone and messages), no calls or text. Doesn't even go to the home screen, just the screen lights up and wont turn off until I physically click the power button. If I put it in aeroplane mode it doesn't do it but obviously I can't do that as I then can't receive calls or text.
Anyone got any ideas?
