Are you talking about the screen turning on when you get a text? . If so, have you checked in the Message app settings /notifications? There should be an option for screen on.

So I have active display on and no other options checked to keep my screen on for any reason yet whenever I receive a notification (only while on charge does this occur) my lock screen shows up instead of active display and it doesn't shut itself off. This doesn't seem like that big of an issue until I wake up and my phone is 125°F. Any remedies for this?

Sounds like maybe you should consider a factory reset, and if that doesn't fix the issue, a full SBF back to stock.
I cannot think of any setting that would cause this, unless you want to provide more details on what if any modifications you have made. Let us know what you do/decide...
Is it possible you have "Stay awake while charging" enabled in Developer settings?
I'm on 4.4.2 rooted with jcases pie exploit only thing I have done is gravity box. I double checked to make sure and I didn't have the screen always on activated.

With my N6 I thought this Ambient display was supposed to flash stuff like text messages when you get some on the display. Mine isn't doing that. I have to pick the phone up and hit the power button to see them. I have the ambient display option turned on. Is their something else I need on?

are you using any root apps that block services, or greenify? if you are, then you are probably blocking your own messages.
Never mind The feature was turned off DUH!
Ok I'm feeling a little dumb lol. On thr AT&T variant, the fingerprint sensor is not waking up the device when locked and screen off. Am I just missing a setting somewhere?
The international version works just fine to wake up and unlock screen, but the AT&T version doesn't.
Any input?
Works for me

My att note 8 works as expected with this. Maybe a setting i forgot about enabling. Perhaps power save more disables this ? Are you using power save?
Edit- tested with power save. This doesn't seem to be the culprit.
Ok there's a setting where you scan in your prints. It's a toggle you must enable. That should do the trick.

Yup it's under lock screen and security then smart Lock. You wanna select the first option and it should automatically unlock to home screen when using your fingerprint.

Screenshot didn't come through, but if you mean the fingerprint unlock toggle, yes I have it on.
Could you fix the problem?
Could you fix the problem? I bought Galaxy S9+ AT&T version and it seems has the same problem.

The only way I could get it to work was to set screen to lock immediately with power button. Can't remember the exact setting title, but I think it's Settings/secure lock settings
Basically if you set the screen to lock as soon as it turns off it'll trigger the fingerprint to turn on screen immediately.
It worked!!! Thank you very very much. Really appreciate it. I was one step farther to return the phone.

I just wanted to say thanks. I flashed my unlocked Note8 with the AT&T firmware to see if it is worth the bloat. On the unlocked firmware I never had to make that change, it was always on. I don't know why I didn't think to check that setting and I don't know why AT&T would set it to ten minutes, there are so many things that can happen in ten minutes. Thanks!
So after many years with iPhone I decided to jump back to Android this year with a Galaxy Note 8 and I need some help.
No matter what I try I can't seem to get lockscreen notifications to turn the screen on so that I can see them. I hear the notification sound but unless I manually turn the screen on nothing happens.
I've checked and rechecked all the settings both within apps and in phone settings but still no joy.
I have my iPhone and the Note 8 side by side on my desk and the iPhone lights up each time I get a notification but my Note 8 just plays the notification sound I set for a particular app.
Is this something that just isn't possible? Or should I be seeing the screen light up when notifications come in?
Thanks!!

Do you have AOD turned on? I don't use it so not sure if that's it or not.

I didn't but I just turned it on to see if that changes anything. And just to be very clear, the notifications are there it's just that the screen doesn't come on for me to see them.
On mine they come on the screen automatically. And I can read them there.....but for me the issue I don't how to control how long the screen stay on.
I noticed stay on for about 1 minute and then ont AOD display comes back. Not sure where in the settings I can change how long they stay on.
My regular screen time out is set to 15 seconds. So that's not what it's going by.
Meanwhile I've found two apps which can change things "Glimpse Notifcations" which is free and has forum here at XDA and also Nils which are very good.
BUt I'd rather not use an app....
For OP, notifications settings are found in many different places. Make sure you turn them on all of them...and in advanced you can even point which notificatons show contents.

Make sure you click in the middle of the setting line subject to access more options...
Meaning Settins, > Lock screen and Security > Notifications....Do not just toggle this setting ON on this screen.... please touch on Notificatons title to access sub menu... where you have now more options..... ON , Hide Cotent..., Icons Only and All Apps and the list of apps...
Now make sure there you have Hide Conntent to OFF. and Notification ICon Only OFF......
Let me know if you find the way to make Notification stay longer on the lock screen then the 1 minute default I"m experiencing
Hello note 8 owners
I have a problem with the edge lightning feature. It works great when screen is on. I also really like the small notification when its activated. (Much better as the standard heads up notifications.
But the edge lightning don't work when screen is off [emoji53]
I asked on a German forum and there the people also reported it won't work when screen is turned off.
So it only wrong work with German DBT CSC or it is a firmware bug?

Haha. Mine works when the screen is off but not when it's on.
Really? What the.....
Then you should be a lucky guy. When screen is on, this feature is nearly useless. Because then i see an incoming message.
now is the question: why is it the other way around you
Sent from my SM-N950F using Tapatalk
No idea. I've tried all 3 settings, when it's on, when it's off, and always. No matter what it only works when it's off.
Actually, sms only works when the screen is off. I was configuring blokada, and it worked when the screen was on.
It doesn't work for gmail at all.
Turn the notiffication popup
