Hi, anyone can figure out what may prevent edge lighting from working when screen off with or without AOD? How can I submit a system log or something to help you diagnose?
All settings is enabled for always and all apps, nothing I can think of that can block it... See screenshot
This has been an enigma since its introduction.

Bump, same facking problem for me.
When you enable edge lighting make sure you enable it on apps you want it to work on and then make sure apps is also enabled to send notifications in the settings aswell. I did notice some apps may not function with edge lighting but most of my apps works fine otherwise.
I forgot to update my solution. It's all working now. No help from Samsung and Samsung member community.
Basically, it will work with all apps, just make sure any " pop-up" setting is turn off as it conflicts with the edge lighting waking the phone with the pop-up.
To fix when screen is off, you Neff to go into app to turn off led notification or in the settings/ display/ led do it doesn't conflict when screen is off.
This, should fix when screen on and screen off. Some apps may be more persistent like WhatsApp and Facebook as it has I it's own pop-up and led settings. Good luck.

I don't use edge lighting as it's only one time and doesn't repeat like led as a reminder to check notification. If you're not looking at the screen then you won't see it again and since pop-up and led is off, you won't get notified so it's pointless.
You can go to the app and look for pop-up notification or light. And check, in system settings/ app/ notification

Hi everyone !
LG 2X/Black Notifications is an app that handles incoming notifications and uses the LED buttons on the device to notify the user of any missed notifications. LG Optimus 2X (P990/P999/SU660), LG Optimus Black (P970) and LG Optimus 3D (P920) is supported. It does not require root if the required files has the proper permissions, if they do not root is required to change them (currently the latest update for T-Mobile G2x and LG Optimus 3D). It should be usable on all ROMs (not tested though). CyanogenMod7 has its own LED-notifications which has to be disabled if you wish to use this app.
Features
Built-in support for Gmail/SMS/MMS/Missed calls
Support for any activity that generates notifications by using Accessibility
Configurable pulse and vibration for every notification
Set the default touch LED brightness
Charging indicator
How the app works
The app is in an idle state and will do nothing until the device receives a notification.
When an notification is received and the screen is on and not in lock-screen, the accelerometer sensors will be started and used as a way to detect user activity. If the sensor is triggered the feedback will be cancelled. If the sensor is not triggered and the screen is turned off the feedback will start.
If the screen is off the feedback will be delayed for 2 seconds. The reason for this is because some notifications might turn on the screen and in turn will cancel the feedback, so the delay will hopefully prevent this. If nothing happens during the delay the feedback starts at once.
The feedback will repeat until it is timed out or the screen is turned on.
If you have any questions and/or bugs to report about the app don't hesitate to post a reply to this thread or send me a message and I'll answer them as soon as possible. I'm also open for suggestions of features to implement. However due to limited time at the moment new features may take a while to be implemented.
Download
For more information and free download check it out on the Android Market.

It's at the bottom of the first post, I've clarified it a bit now.
Thanks!! I've been using this since beta 0.3
Just a request...
Can accelerometer be disabled ? Cos i may be picking up the phone but not looking at the screen at all.
And, can the App icon be reverted to have transparent background (like in the early betas)
Cheers

An option to disable accelerometer could be added, but then you would get the pulse for every incoming notification even if you've looked at them (if you were using the phone when you got them). The accelerometer is disabled when the screen is off or in the lock-screen (if you use another lock-screen than the default this might not be true though) so that if you receive a notification and then move your phone around without unlocking it the pulse should still start. So generally the accelerometer shouldn't be a problem, but if you really want an option for it I could add one
I changed the appearance of the icon since it couldn't be seen on Market because it has a white background. I also preferred the old look But it might be possible to fix it somehow, I'll note it down and look at it when I have time.
Nice app man... has solved all problems with notifications led
Thanks
managed to work, would prefer a led like i had in my X10 =/, but its great
So far works great. Thanks for the share mate! I'll try it for a couple more days and I'll be sure to leave you a comment in the market.
Nice App!
Keep going!
thanks for the effort man!
hi
really nice app
After the most recently update of Handcent SMS it's possible to choose Handcent as the default messaging application, and by then disable the stock messaging application. But when you do so, LG 2X/Black Notifications doesn't work when you receive a message. Do you think you can fix this in a future update?
This app can "listen to" other application's notifications. Did you try to enable the "monitoring" for Handcent ? (notification > select monitored activities)
Great work!

Yes, it can..

Now i can have notification on my Whatsapp chat while ringtone is turned off..
Hi,
first of all i would like to say a big thanks to the developer xigzil of this great app, it always worked reliably on my LG P990.
Now i have changed my device to Samsung Galaxy S2 and wanted to ask xigzil if is possible to make this app work with?
I would really appreciate it and with a high probability of many other too.
Thanks in advance.

For the charging monitoring can you make it so that as the charge gets closer to 100% more of the LEDs are on.
For example 0-30% the menu LED is on 31-60% Menu and Home LED on. 61-90% Menu Home and Back LED are on. And 91-100% all 4 LEDs on. Somthing like that.
OR even if they could even pulse kinda like the battery icon at the top of the screen does where it will fill in blocks (if that makes sense)
Suggestion
Hi,
I love this application. But I have a suggestion. I have Go SMS Pro and the screen turns on when I receive a message. After the screen turns on, the notifications stop, even if I turn the screen off!
Could you add an option to make the notification works until there aren't any notification left?
An example, I'm at work and I receive a message, I turn the screen on to see who send me a message, but I don't read it. It stays unread (the notification in the top bar stays there). And then I turn off the screen to see the message when I have the time. But the notification stops. I what the notification never stops until I read the message. I don't mind if the notification is working even if I using the phone.
Thanks
My edge lighting animation suddenly stopped running, anyone knows the problem?
All settings are turned to ON and the supported apps. Even at the edge lighting advanced setting menu, whenever you change the colors\width\transparency it should animate. but not anymore. it just light up a solid color.
Tried also running on safe mode still no luck...

Luckily mine still works...but only for Messages. Anyway, try looking for the Edge app in app lists and clear data/cache?
Also the same here note 8 9500 (just light up) , Any solution ??

While in the apps list screen, hit the 3 dots, to right corner, show system apps. You'll see an app called Edge Screen. I'm guessing cause edge lighting is within the edge screen menu, it might be related.
In the developer option do you have your animation off?
For me if I have animation off the edge lighting will not work.

Turned back on the "animator duration scale" within developer options and it works now

Not yet. Seems like a pretty big fail if you ask me. Hopefully it comes in an EMUI update. Just set notifications to turn on the screen and enable the LED.
Yes, but it doesn't work (atleast on the P20 Pro)
:/
whoistrulees said:
I've the P20 pro and although the option is there to enable the Always On Display, it doesn't work.
Unsure if other users have found that it doesn't work either?
Head over to Settings > Security & Priavcy > Screen lock & passwords > Always display information - In here there is a slider bar to enable it, and you can schedule all day or a set time period. Either way when I enable it the display doesn't show anything when the screen goes off.
There's other issues too with EMUI 8.1, such as the setting for turning the screen on when you lift the device up - that doesn't work.
Another is the double tap Volume Down button to take a photo, that doesn't work even though the setting is enabled in the camera app.
Another one is when using the Whatsapp call feature the screen goes off, yes this also happens on normal voice call, but unlike in a normal voice call where you can press the power on/off button to display the in call menu screen, in Whatsapp you cannot get the display back on. You are reliant on the person who you are talking to to end the call.
Other than that the device is immense.

Have to say that all of the things you mention work fine on my phone (although I don't have whatsapp so can't comment on that). however the AOD is next to useless - it only shows the time and battery level but no notifications! One of the reasons I bought a phone with an OLED display was for this feature, hope it gets an upgrade to something useful soon. For the time being I've paid for an app called 'Always on AMOLED', which works fine for the most part.
:/
Has there been any progress on this? I'm coming from an S7 and all notifications showed up on the AOD. Cannot understand why the P20 Pro (flagship!) only allows native apps to show notifications.
Anyone have any luck with 3rd Party A.O.D. apps on the P20 Pro to get it to work properly and stick without being killed? One my favorite and most recommended is:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tomer.alwayson but it is sporadic in functionality and staying "Always On" I am trying to use it on my Mate RS
I came from LG G5 (2016), and I can't believe that this feature is missing on the P20 Pro (2018) flagship. Are they insane?!
Any news about it, when might it be implemented?
I'm so pissed about it that it's unbelievable.

I agree! It's a pain in the ass. There are few features missing, but still very annoying.
Is there a way to disable the swipe down menu on the lockscreen? The whole point of the phone being locked is so that I can only access the info/notifications.
Well if I can just swipe down while on the lockscreen and see the previewed text/who o missed a call from/email etc it kinda makes locking the phone pointless.
Any idea how to disable that feature? I feel like I'm just missing it but IDK?

I can still drag the pull down menu when the screen is locked.
Anyone can turn on/off Audio, Flashlight, Blue light filter, Do Not Disturb, Auto Rotate, Always On Display, Sync, Edge Lighting, Dolby Atmos, Night mode, Bixby Routines and Navigation bar settings. Either I am missing something or allowing anyone unfettered access to the settings on the locked screen is a new feature of the OS.
I want to completely disable/hide the pull down menu on the locked screen. If I need to do anything on the phone with the exception of making emergency calls and using the camera, I should first login with the pattern, fingerprint or facial recognition. A Samsung rep responded to a post similar to this on the Samsung community forum that only a third party app can completely disable that pull down menu. smh. I really hope someone here found a way to disable that menu.

HAS ANYONE FOUND OUT HOW TO DO THIS
Having used the phone for a week now, no major issues, but just one thing annoying me.
Some apps' notification are not received when my screen is off. Once I wake up my phone, the messages are then received and shown. But some apps (like WhatsApp, Messages) are working fine.
I've checked all the battery optimization settings for those affected apps but had no clues why they are not working the way they should. These apps are working fine in my other devices.
Appreciate any suggetsions.
Sounds like what I experience with OnePlus phones...something they did to make the battery last longer between charging cycles. Not much you can do. If they allowed background apps to work as we wish they would the battery life would stink and people would complain and sales would drop.
In my experience this depends on the system mode you select under settings/battery. For me in the dynamic mode notifications appear without delay, but some appear only when I turn on the screen in the durable mode.

Thanks. I've been using dynamic mode and even tried high performance mode, but still the same issue.
It's a setting from security and lockscreen. Press the clog at the right of screen lock. There you have a setting called notifications on lockscreen. Set it to show all notifications
Disable adaptive notifications. This should fix the issue.

no, it's not related to whether notification is showing in lock screen or not. the symptom is that only when i wake up the phone, the notification will then be received. i can see from the firewall log that google service framework accessed data as soon as the phone is awake.
