Aways on Display alerts on S8 - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers

Is there any way to get more apps other than just reminders to show up on the Always on display alerts in the security settings? I have all the other settings correct as I see the notifications when the screen is on, but when its locked and in the AOD mode, only reminders pop up and no other notifications.

[Q] Can't turn off Calendar "Alerts"

There are two types of Calendar Notifications in Note 3.
[1] Alert - This will display full screen notification with Dismiss and Snooze options, just like the Clock Alarm. It will turn the display on to display the full screen notification. If your phone is on and you are in some other app, it will still overlap on the current app and display full screen notification.
[2] Status bar notification - This will not turn the display on. It will be just the status bar notification, just like the gmail notification. If your phone is on and you are in some other app, it will not interrupt the current app.​
No matter what settings I choose, I always get the full screen alert. Even if I choose the Status bar notification, it always displays full screen alert. Is there any solution to this?

Anytime you have a calendar alert per event that says "Popup", it's going to do that.

I do not see any "pop-up" option on my Note 3. I sync my calendar with Google calendar and I have default notification set as pop-up in Google Calendar. Do you mean to say that setting on the web interface is causing it?

Yes, that alert for the event is what I was referring to. I disable that by default on mine and my phone doesn't have that popup.
I also sync my Gmail events to my Note 3 using the default calendar app.
If that doesn't work, try downloading the Google calendar, remove your gmail from the default calendar and see if it still does it?

Do not disturb still turns on lockscreen... how to disable?

I have do not disturb on at night but I still get the lockscreen turning on for messages and calendar notifications.
It lights up my entire room when these notifications turn the lockscreen on.
Is there a way to keep the lockscreen from coming on when these notification events occur?

Notification sound with no notification

I keep getting a notification sound at random intervals but there is no notification. I have tried disabling NFC and notification reminders per googles suggestions but that hasn't helped. I downloaded Notification Log History but it only shows actual notifications I am receiving not the ones I don't see. Any ideas?
I got those sounds until I turned off Notification Reminder.
You can have notifications turned on, but turn off the reminder.
Ok I finally figured it out. I had notifications disabled for 115 out of 132 of my apps through the settings menu. I went back, enabled all notifications to see what was going off all the time. Turns out I was getting numerous alerts from Tapatalk and Slickdeals. I went into both apps and disabled notifications through the actual app settings and my issues went away. Not sure why the apps override what I'm doing in the phone settings but they were. Hopefully in the future this helps others. In short, enable all apps in the phone settings and see what's notifying you. Go into those apps and disable notifications within the app.

Message notification light up AOD but not lock screen?

Is there a way for the Samsung messages to just flash on the AOD (I have AOD set to tap to show) and not turn on the whole screen to show. Similar to the 6t it pixel ambient display?
Thanks
If you set messages notifications to sound+popup it should turn on the screen for a bit, but the aod image will be static.

That's what I have currently. I'm trying to see if just the AOD can show and not have the screen turn on at all
