Hey guys,
Does anybody know why the notification light flashes when I get a new email, even though I unchecked emails in the settings?
Thanks!

Which setting? If you're talking about the notifications settings under the e-mail app, that only affects the notifications within the phone itself(i.e. a sound, and the notification center). I'm not familiar with a way of telling the notification light what programs to blink at and what not to.

I have found a way to disable gmail notification light, unfortunately, it disables all other gmail notifications so it's pretty much useless. If you don't care then do the following.
1) Open gmail app
2) Select 3 dot menu button
3) Select Label settings
4) Uncheck Label notifications

Hey All,
I have a question about the LED notification that is located in the speaker grill. I turned off the notification for when I receive new e-mails, but it still blinks when I get a new e-mail. I went to settings --> Notification flash --> unchecked "mail" Is this not the correct way to turn it off?
Thanks!
Nevermind I figured it out. You have to go into the app settings and disable it specifically for gmail.
I am new to HTC One, coming from S4.
Is Sense lockscreen supposed to show notifications? Light up when something happnes, like a new sms or email? I don't see this on my phone. I know there is a LED on the phone also, it lights up when I'm charing the phone, but only then. I see in the settings that there is a setting for led, it is on, but I don't see any.
How is this supposed to work on the One? Do I have to install DynamicNotifications or do you recommend anything else?
Also, I don't find any function for "Do not disturb" which can be setup to automatically silence the phone at nighttime, except for contacts I choose to whitelist. Like "Blocking-Mode" on Samsung. There isn't any?

1. Yes it will show Notifications. If you need that info, go to Settings, Security, Notification Settings and enable the appropriate ones you need...
2. The LED will blink based on the notifications you will select in the "Notification light" option in settings again. It doesn't blink for long, the blink happens only for a brief time....This is to make sure it doesn't dry your battery...
Cheers!!!
Hit thanks only if this helped you
Hmm... I cannot get this to work. When using the stock sms-app I get no notifications at all, no sound, no popup, nothing on the lock-screen. Nothing. In the app all notifications are set to on. In settings everything is set to notify on the lock screen and led is on.
When using ChompSMS, I get notification sound, but nothing on the lock-screen, except when I use the Dynamic Notifications app. There's no light in the led though.
When using gmail I get the sound, but nothing on lock screen and no led-blink. If I use Dynamic Notifications I get notified on the lock-screen, but no led-blink.
I am on 4.3 and pure stock.
How is this supposed to work? Coming from Samsung, this is very confusing. It simply won't work.
The led lights when charging though, but never on anything else.
Might be a dumb question but how do I get these alerts to not pop right up on my screen I want to be notified with a sound/vibrate and the notification light but not pop u for anyone to see.

Open messages and go into settings. Under Notification, uncheck pop up display
Great phone! One thing worries me though:
Using stock android email, I don't get any notifications in the status bar.
For Gmail, the notification for new mail does appear in the status bar OK.
In both cases the LED does not blink when a mail arrives.
I'm pretty sure I've checked all the options for notifications (settings>Apps & notifications>configure notification) as well as all apps allowed to send notifications; and in email settings. Also tried in safe mode, and did a factory reset with no result.
But perhaps I'm missing something?
Anyone else with similar issues?
Edit_____
Factory reset solved email icon - it now appears. But no LED light.
Installed led light app (Phone Light-LED) which seems to be a good workaround so far.

Actually, you can try to reset app preferences next time.

I've found that starting in 7.1.1 on my XC, the LED notifications will blink only for notifications configured for sound. If notification is silent, then no LED. Stupid IMO. Not sure if 8.0 is the same or not.
Hi all
I've just bought the Note 9 after managing to crack the screen of my Note 8, which was also on Android 9 and One UI.
Since getting the new phone, I've had some issues with notifications when the screen is off - Whatsapp doesn't notify, unless I switch notifications on but then I'm stuck with the annoying whatsapp pop-up, and it doesn't show up on lock screen notifications.
As well as this, I also have a problem with whatsapp when screen on, not showing all messages. It will either say "conversation: x messages" or "x messages from y conversations"
I had this working just perfectly on my note 8 but I'm really struggling on the Note 9! I hope someone can help?!

The pop-up notification can be disabled in WhatsApp settings > Notifications > Pop-up Notifications > No pop-up.
Check your lock-screen notification settings and then individual app setting of Whatsapp (new addition in Pie) and check if notification is disabled on lock screen.

Do you have many unread chats? Try marking some of them as Read.
If the notification is minimal, then the Message Notification (in individual notification setting) may have been set as 'Silent and Minimized'.

When I disable whatsapp popup, nothing happens, just the screen doesn't wake up at all when a whatsapp alert comes in.
Have checked app setting, which seems ok, and notification on lock screen isn't hidden

Hey, can I have the screenshot of the pop-up you're referring to? I think I may have confused heads-up notification with WhatsApp Message Pop-up.

Hiya,
in terms of the pop up issue, I've found something from the forum which seems to have restored it - disabling lightedge whilst screen on. I'm a bit annoyed about this as I quite like the effect, and it does disable it for all apps, even all the others which work perfectly fine, but hey ho!
My main issue really is whatsapp not waking the screen unless I turn on the whatsapp notification, and I hate that box lol
Thats the real thing I want to try and find a cure for if possible......
