Sensitive notifications - turn off for specific apps? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I am on 6.0 with my G4 and my issue is that since the mobo got replaced (= I had to build the system from zero, bootloop ftw), I cannot toggle which applications should be hidden on the lock screen, i.e. I don't want anyone to be able to read my incoming mail/sms/token etc notifications, but I want to set the facebook's messenger to 'non sensitive' so I can see what they want without unlocking the screen (like with spotify, I can fully access the notification with pause/fwd/rev etc.)
Sorry if this had been discussed before, I couldn't find a resolution for my issue.
+ before mobo replacement, it worked like that (messenger notifications were visible, sms/etc were not.)
Thank you for your guidance.

[Q] Notif Bar/Lock Screen Bug?

When my phone is unlocked and I access any entry in the notification pulldown screen (e.g., weather, email, USB connected......anything), I am taken to the lock screen and required to re-input my unlock pattern (or facial recognition). Since the phone is obviously unlocked when I tap on notification area, this seems like it may be a bug. Why return to the lock screen when the phone is already unlocked?
Is anybody else experiencing this behavior?

Mine did something like that for a little while....i'd just installed golocker but didn't have it set as the correct default I think.
Thanks for your response, Rocket_Science, but since I do not use the GO Launcher EX, I don't think the GO Locker will work on my phone. And I have no desire to install the GO Launcher. Still looking for a fix . . . .
I am going to bump this back up in the hope that some kind soul (who uses a password or gesture protected lock screen) will test their OG and let me know if they experience similar behavior: with your phone unlocked, access the notification pull down and tap on any item (weather, email, etc.). Are you taken to the item or do you return to the lock screen? I always get take to the lock screen and need to re-input my password to get access to the device.
Many thanks.

This seems to be a known issue with Android 4.x when using an application that disables the lock screen for you. I use Llama, and I have it disable the lock screen automatically after it successfully connects to my home wifi. If I click on anything in the Notification area, the lock screen will appear and come up every time thereafter. As long as I don't click on any Notifications, it will not re-lock itself.
This happened to me on my HTC Evo 3D as well, so I thought it was a bug with Llama, but I saw the same issue mentioned with another application that performs a similar action.
This is probably something that would have to be reported to Google.

Is somebody facing notifications issues in Vivo V9? If so, how to resolve it?

Hi, am new on this group.
I've purchased Vivo V9 a month back and I like this model. But, I am facing notifications issue in my Vivo V9.
Thing is, when I got notifications on Whatsapp, G-Mail, Missed Calls, Messages etc. so all of these notifications doesn't always shows up in the locked screen/notification tray etc. I am a freelancer and it's very important for me to keeping eye on my G-Mail, UpWork App (My Work Related App), Parallel Space (Using one useful clone app on this), Skype etc. But most of the times, I don't get any notifications on the locked screen even sometimes on the notification tray. I've checked with all the settings such as each app's notifications/permissions settings, general notification settings etc. everything. Even, restored my phone for two times. But, I always missed few of my important notifications. i.e. I've setup Whatsapp to show all the notifications one the locked screen, pop-up, notification tray etc. but whenever i got message on Whatsapp, it makes sound, popup appeared, showed in notification tray but doesn't show in locked screen.
Moreover, sometimes the notifications doesn't shows up even on a notifications tray.
I wanted to know that is somebody facing this kind of issue on this model? If so, what did you do to resolve this? Or, if someone has idea of all the possible reasons for this issue?
Thanks!

Ambient Display

I have already read a lot about the various issues concerning notifications in the status bar. However, I am as of yet still missing a discussion on notification issues with the ambient display of the MI 9 SE.
I am experiencing that MIUI standard apps (like the Xiaomi messaging app) are able to shoe notifications on the ambient display. However, all non-standard apps (like Telegram, Slack or Email apps) are not able to do so. Has anyone observed differntent behaviour? Any suggestions on workarounds for this? Anybody already tried the beta and is the notification bug of the ambient display corrected there?
I see gmail, whatsapp...(mostly because i use them alot) but I am also missing some notifications of certain apps. Try to change their android notification settings and turn evertything on, and check if that makes a difference.

Help with notifications and more...

Hello After all, I have only had my S20 Ultra for a week and I would like to ask you for help with notifications because I can't find these things anywhere, more precisely:
1. Where can I turn on applications such as Massenger, Facebook, Whatsup or even ordinary text messages with their notifications "waking the screen" (the phone is lying down, gets a notification and the screen lights up)? In the Huawei P20 Pro, which I had for 2 years, there was no need to set anything and it was at the factory system.
2. How to set that notifications appear in the middle of the screen in the form of a frame with text, and not so that now only the icon in the status bar at the top appears?
3. How and is it worth removing Bixby? For example, will removal result in extended battery life?
4. Is it possible to change the screen somehow after moving to the right - we have tabs there, including "Upday" with news, you can set Spotify, Netflix, Tiktok, or some Instant Games .. that's all? Can you set news from the world and country from Google, for example, as in other Android phones?
5. Do you know any less obvious tips on how to extend the battery life? Delete something from the system etc?
THANKS AND I COUNT ON YOUR HELP

Question Badges, notifications, push services, and lockscreen issues.

Hi all. I have CN rom (Tencent Games label). I previously had a Galaxy S21.
I have discovered that many of the frequent apps I use don't notify me well on this RM6. For messaging, I expect a sound, a screen wakeup, and a badge on the lockscreen for apps like FB Messenger, WhatsApp, Outlook Email, etc. How can I get this happening on the RM6?
I also note that when I am in a voice-call on Whatsapp, that after the lockscreen timeout ends, the headphones (speakers and mic) stop working through the lockscreen. But if I unlock, the app (and open voice call) are still there.
I feel like the lockscreen is main issue, but I cannot see any suitable options to change the settings.
Help?
Regards, Sirdiver
i've the same issue in EU Rom, it's a software problem and for sure it will be fixed in the upcoming updates.
Same issue here.
Has this been fixed ?
The biggest issue i am facing right now with this lockscreen is not able to see who is calling me through normal phone call and WhatsApp call. The screen does not showing any details of the caller & keep blank until i unlock the screen. The notification settings on redmagic is so confusing with so unnecessary options. The worst part, after cracking my head configured with so many settings only for the notifications, it doesn't working as expected. Waste of time
Do any of you guys face not having notification icons on the Always-On Display? Not able to fix this issue after tweaking most of the settings and the phone has already been updated to the latest version.
