[Q] Notifications on lock screen for Gmail/Hangouts

Any idea how to allow Gmail and Hangouts apps notifications on lockscreen? If I go to Notification center in Settings, I cant find these two in list of apps. So I cant enable these to have notifications on lock screen. And there is no settings for it in these apps directly - so what now? Cant pull down notification list on lockscreen - seems disabled. So I can see only that I have Gmail/Hangouts msg - I see status icon, but no preview...

Sorry to say if they are not in the Notification Center then there is no way to turn them on. Huawei seems to exclude Google apps quite often.

Seems like its the case. But even when app has lockscreen notifications enabled, it just shows general message and not content. For example viber is showing only notification that you have XY nee messages, but not showing actual content even when specificaly enabled in app...

I don't use Viber but on my lock screen notifications from Skype I do see the content of the message. Overall I don't like their lock screen notifications. You might want to try something like Nils for better notifications. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.roymam.android.notificationswidget
How do you like the Mate S? I didn't know they were available to buy yet.

Why I have all notifications in locks screen on my Mate7 ?
You have to go to notif.manager in settings and enable it!
If you don't want the content then from lock screen flick up from bottom tap on settings then screen lock and passwords and turn off detailed notifications..
Man just start get knowing device by exploring every corner every settings in it..

Do you have Mate S or not? Because I enabled these settings and still getting general notifications without actual texts. And I asked how to enable lockscreen notifications for gmail/hangouts, when these are not present in not. manager. Please read before typing angry posts...

Got it on IFA launch, wanted to use it few days before I write some review. Generally it seems like nice phone, great build, but runs one day and have some software issues - hope Huawei will fix these. Will try to report these through our PR guy, because I got no response at all from builtin support app (which opens mail app with filled email).

That's cool, I wish I could review it and get a hands on. However my general impression with Huawei has always been great hardware but the software has issues. If they were to scale back their skin like so many others are doing, and focus just on adding some of the more useful tweaks. Then I think the software would be matching the quality of the hardware. Not to mention faster OS updates.
I saw a video showing off the force touch soft keys on the bottom. I wondered if you could go back to regular soft keys. I think I'd rather have those buttons down there most of the time instead of trying to find where to force touch, or always having to use force touch.

No I don't I have Mate 7 so same software 5.1.1
google apps has its own settings.. i have yahoo mail and that is shown in notif lockscreen
reset the whole phone and start over..
Report.
HEy man nobody is angry alright ?

Seems to be a EMUI Problem that some (Google) Apps are not listed at all in the Notification Manager, so nothing to do with knowing the Phone, Hangouts & GMail which were pre-installed are just not there. So they don't have the choice to be shown on the Lockscreen ...

I got my Mate S (CRR-UL00) a few days ago, and I have Gmail in the notification settings, and can activate lockscreen notifications from there.

which is actually more raw than the dp preview
1.notification panel juggers a little bit
2.brightness slider- now u cannot directly tap on ur desired point on it , instead have to slide
3.huge volte sign

Following annoying things introduced in Google PIE update,
I am Nokia 7 Plus user
After having PIE update, Google search bar stays there on Home screen by default & don't have option to remove it using settings.
On Home screen current Date & Time is getting displayed along with temperature, in preferences option for this, there is no option to disable Temperature part

Turning the time off in System UI doesn't stick, soon as the screen locks & you open it the time comes back. :/

Something like it

Since the update I have noticed lower volume on Bluetooth when connected to me car kit, max volume on the phone but I have to turn the stereo volume up another 20% or so.
Also voice unlock will work some times, then tells me it's paused and I have to unlock manually.

Anyone else hit the power button/double tap and see that the notifications are collapsed? Usually this cuts off some of the text. As soon as you tap the notification (or try to take a screenshot) it expands. Seems to be my only gripe so far.

-Bluetooth not working ok. Sometimes it conects and keep sounding in the phone instead of the headsets. It eats way more battery than before.
-White balance problem with the camera, sometimes in sunny situations it turns everithing to a ugly yellow. Even putting manual white balance does nothing.
-Sometimes notifications don't show up, even in apps that i use all the time.
-Battery life is considerable worst than 8.0 august.
-Everything is less smoth, stutters on animations, the notification panel collapse with 3 notifications and don't show the messages, just a white bar.
-In thr upper corner where you see the notifications it shows a point instead of the notifications when you have 3 or more notifications.
-Ambient display showing a horizontal bar in the screen even if there are notifications.
After so many previews i was not expecting this, i am really dissapointed.

Did you do a fresh install or just updated over 8.1 ?

Anyone get squashed notifications like this?

I had this bug also, that's why I rolled back to oreo.
Can you confirm if you also lose the animations in the lockscreen?

Yes, it jumps from that condensed notification to the full size one instantly. Really hoping this gets ironed out :l

How did you update? Via OTA or sideload?
If this was via OTA thats really bad from Nokia.
Other question! wich variant is your phone? TA-1046 or TA-1062

Sideloaded, and TA-1062.

Yes same here.
I also sideloaded with TA-1062 and got that bug in the lockscree.
I rolledback to oreo and decided to wait, because I dont know if TA-1062 has something special with Pie, becuase other people who updated to pie in other variants (TA-1046 for example) are not facing the issue
Wating to recive a oficial OTA.

It excludes the app from being closed if you hit the close all button.

When I hit the close all button it disappears though. I've been thinking about ODINing pie to my phone. I OTA updated and then factory reset. Stuff doesn't seem right, like my alarm screen doesn't have the increasing ringtone option anymore either... Any thoughts? Does yours stay in the recents?

From what I was able to research, the gradual volume increase is missing from the Samsung Clock app. There appears to be different settings for each category on the vertical 3 dot menu. I have seen suggestions to install the Google clock app but YMMV.
I just tried again with locking the app and it does stay when I hit close all. When I check the recents afterward, the only app that appears is the one I locked with the lock symbol in the bottom right corner.

Another friendly question. Do you have any idea why the pen doesn't work with some apps? I've noticed 2 for sure. One is free the other was paid. Evolution of Species 2 and Excapist 2. Neither will work with the pen remote settings on or off. I figured the pen would produced the same affect as the finger...

Best I can gather is that some apps are coded specifically for touch input. If I'm understanding correctly, the pen is considered direct input which is different than touch. I found an old Reddit thread that might explain it better...
https://www.reddit.com/r/galaxynote4/comments/2wk9lk/why_doesnt_the_spen_work_with_somegames/

About setting for volume increase in clock app. That setting has been removed and that auto increase is now done automatically.
I checked with Samsung about it and they confirmed that setting was removed and that volume auto increases as default now. In android pie

Has anybody solved notifications issue on Mate 20 Pro?

Hi everyone. Can anybody post a screenshot of your homescreen with received emails / messages icons showing in the top left corner of the Mate 20 Pro screen (notifications area) please? I'm sick and tired to hear explanations like "hm, weird. might something wrong with your firmware", hm, I've got everything". Something is telling me that this problem is notch related and Huawei simply don't know how to fix it. Thanks in advance.

What problem do you have?

No notification icons (emails, messages...) in the top left corner. All I have got is operator name and signal strength (GSM + WiFi) signs. That's it. As a result, I'm missing important messages and emails, not reading them in time. Never experienced anything like this on Pixel, Galaxies, LG, HTC and Sony phones. Also my previous phone - Mate 10 - didn't have this problem too. Can't find the way to fix it on Mate 20 Pro.

Maybe you have disabled them by mistake,you can always go to app setting and enable notifications for each app you want.

It's a horrible notch on this phone.
I'd much rather that if the option to turn "off" the notch is selected, that the whole top line would be moved down so that icons show in an entire row the line below, instead of the very top notched line, but such is life!
For you, is this a space issue do you think?
I've changed the option to show a notification number instead of individual icons. At least with this method, you'll know something is there?
.

You have the place for only 4 icons at the right and at the left of the notch. So that depends if you have Bluetooth on, network monitor on etc... Etc.. For each apps you have maybe in notification bar you should disable apps that you don't want to be in notif bar. For exemple I use Tasker but don't need it in notification bar, so I removed is icon in notification menu.
Like you I don't see my email or text msg notification icon but is because I've Bluetooth on, alarm on, vibrate On and data monitoring on so... Alarm icon don't appear coz I've also signal strength.
Signal strength + Bluetooth icon + network monitor + vibrate mode = 4 icons nothing more. If I switch from vibrate mod to ring mod i' ve again one free slot for another icon etc... Etc..

I haven't touched or disabled anything. Everything is on default settings. I've checked all notifications related settings, everything is enabled.

Yes, this is a space issue and a Huawei issues at the same time. I set "show numbers" options but still no luck. Maybe my current operator name is too long to have anything else beside.

Okay, thanks for explanation. Thant's mean it is space + Huawei issue indeed. Useless (no notifications whatsoever) AOD is quite frustrating as well.

Have you tried unticking the display carrier name option in the display settings?
Edit:
Ahh, this only affects the home screen and not the lockscreen. Never mind

There is room for 5 icons and not 4. The last three ones are replaced by new icon.
I think you've changed something in settings that's why you're not getting notifications.
If you look at second screen shot, you can see that sms icon in the first photo is replaced with keyboard icon and on the third it's back again.

Okay, I see. Seriously, I haven't touch any settings, all in defaults state. Just tried to disable providers name and finally notification popped up! Anyway, notch is the culprit of my issue. I takes heaps of space so with provider name displayed by default there is no space for anything else. Can't justify such a huge notch and having below the average sound from the speakers. My old small Pixel 3 sounds a way clearer and louder even not at high volume. Don't really care about secure and fancy 3D face recognition at all.

Then you bought the wrong handset. The notch is there for a reason. I love the 3d face recognition, so I live with the notch. I bought the right phone.

You can also use adb to permanently disable some of the system icons like Bluetooth, alarm clock, nfc, etc.. This really helped clean things up and made more room up top for notification icons.
One option I wish they had was the ability to move signal and WiFi from left to right.

Total is 8 icons....4 at left and 4 at right or 5 at left 3 at right etc... If you choose to put battery % out of his icon you will see... Battery icon take 2 places, % take one, time take one = 4
If you put battery % inside his icon : battery icon take 2 places, time take one = 3, so you have automatically 5 slots available at left... [emoji57]

You're right :good:

Question Can we try to figure out this notification issue "mis" behaviour?

so Im baffled and I'm wondering if I am missing a setting somewhere. First of all, I am not using dark mode. the battery setting are all set properly as well as notification and "start" auto start etc. this is what I am noticing.
I am using Nova as well..oh.smart notifications OFF. I have de-bloated the phone no Vivo.pem
First of all Whatsapp: my lock screen does not show whatsapp messages most of the times, but it does show the min drop down notifications. I noticed the message comes on the lockscreen and disappears v quickly. I included slowmo of the notification popping and clearing itself out. I also noticed if your phone screen is turned off for while and you open it the lock screen shows most messages including whatsapp. Sometimes the whatsapp notification holds on the lockscreen(I included 3 examples).
Another issue is, coming from Samsung and one plus, all the items on the drop down notifications should be the same on the lockscreen. They are not. I seem to get gmail, whatsapp(sometimes) sms etc..the rest are not showing. is that normal behaviour?. again smart notifications is turned to off. logically any app that I set to show on lockscreen should show on lockscreen? I included 2 photos of this.
I know everyone is having issues with notifications, Im just trying to find the pattern for this because to me it looks inconsistent. either it should show or never show.my audiobook shows on both 100% of the the time. so really confusing for me.could be something stupid that im missing, maybe theres a setting for a timer for a certain notification to show on a lockscreen? I dont know.I think in 10 days Ive learned the settings menu inside out.
Fingers crossed that wasnt a stupid post...

Run the new debloat script I fixed. You probably botched something up with the old script, or removed com.vivo.pem and borked your whole phone.

Ok 2.6? I thought we need to remove com.viov.pem..
Thanks ..Will try again

Only according to like one or two guys who in my experience don't seem to know what they are talking about because the phone performs fine with this package installed.
How did it go?
