I personally don't think there is an option to turn off Heads Up or now called "Peeking" notifications. However, there are a few third-party apps that can help you disable the heads up notification but you have to disable each app manually. AFAIK heads-up notification is the quickest way to reply and makes life easy and reduces the RAM usage and background activity which on whole will reduce your battery usage.

The best option is to have this notification which look like that>>> https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EV_hXQAJ8-vXUeUzyWjPTJdZ4zZ6k10g/view?usp=drivesdk
Does anyone know what to do to have this notifications?

[Q] How to Turn on screen when there's a notification?

Hi there:
Is there a way to make it so the screen turns on when I get a notification? The only thing that happens currently is a sound is played. I could have sworn when I first got it that the screen turned on as well. Any help would be great. Thanks!
I have a similar requirement and therefore would like to bring this issue up to seek for your help.
Whenever an SMS comes, there are a sound and a small icon of an envelop appearing at the top of the phone for about 1 ~ 2 seconds. If the phone is with me then I know there is an SMS. Other cases i.e. when I am outside and leave my phone in my room, I will not know that I have SMS on my phone until I open the message application (as there is no notification like missed call)!
Can anyone let me know how to set the SMS icon (the small yellow envelop) remaining on the notification bar until I open and read the SMS?
Thanks in advance.
have you tried NOLED ?
Yes, searched and installed NoLED from Market. This application is greate, it satisfies my requirements!
Many thanks to AllGamer and all xda-developers!

Some issues with Nexus 6

So I got my phone yesterday, I noticed the ringtones increase in volume and there is no way to change it and I also don't have the option to hide sensitive data on the lock screen for emails and text messages. I checked for an update on my phone but it says it's up to date. I looked up tips and tricks for lollipop and some of the stuff that's mentioned in the posts, I don't have the options to use them, any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Yeah there is no way to change the ascending ringtone..i dont like it.
you can turn off the messages on the lockscreen by going to
settings/sound & notifications/When device is locked
Please search next time there are ~5 different OPs discussing this.

I want the notifications on the lock screen but I want to hide the actual text from the message, so if someone looks at my screen it shows a message from so and so but the actual message portion is hidden.

[Q] 2 Questions in dire need of being answered.

There are 2 things bugging me at this point and want to know if i am just overlooking the solution. The first thing is can we remove the auto brightness slider from the Notification Bar? I have looked and searched all over i cant seem to remove it. Second thing is is there any way to stop the screen from turning on when i receive i new text message using the default messages apps? I usually dont use default messaging apps however i want to use the edge lighting and people edge notifications. Anyone figured out how to get rid of these 2 issues?

Unfortunately the brightness slider can not be removed as it's built into the framework, also no way to disable screen wake with stock text messaging app (until we get root if it ever happens)

Text Message screen - Have you tried going into the text message app, swipe left, under Advanced, Settings, uncheck Enable Popup? My screen does not wake when I get a text.

I have to second this - my screen doesn't light up when I get a message ... BUT I also use the Samsung SMS app and not the Verizon one. I don't even care if the VZW one is better, I refuse to use Big-Red branded apps.
As for the brightness slider, it appears this is now baked into the framework without any option of removing. I'm sure it would be an easy fix if we had root, but you'll have to be patient on that front.

DND Notifications

Anyone else noticing that even in the Do Not Disturb options that if you hide visual notifications they still show up? Or am I in the wrong settings to not want to get them? Been since the Note 4 that I've owned a samsung. My 2XL would show nothing besides the "Do Not Disturb'' icon on the AOD
I cant be the only one who notices this or doesnt like it lol

Strange Icon in Notification Bar

Hi I noticed this strange icon in my notifications area and I'm hoping someone can help me with what it is. I don't want to click it and it compromises my phone.
Isn't that skype icon?
What does it say if you expand notification? Don't tap on it, just expand
It seems to be the Samsung push service notification.
You may have a notification in one of the Samsung services.
Rgds
Or it could by samsung smart switch..?
