[Q] Can you help me understanding how Android notification system works?

Hi, I just switched completely from iOS to Android after I while I used an iPhone and a Nexus 7 together. Now I replaced the iPhone with a Samsung Galaxy S4.
I'm pretty happy, but there are a couple of things I still completely grasp about how Android notifications work.
My first issue is related to *blocking mode* and Whatsapp. I have the same issue reported in this discussion.
It seems that the app can bypass Android notification system and relies on something else. Is that true? How can that happen?
I have another concern related to the use of vibration when sound is turned on. It seems that the system-wide settings refers only to phone calls, while for other notifications I have to rely on app-specific settings. Am I correct?
Taking for example facebook app, what would happen if I disable vibration and put the phone in silent mode? Will it vibrate?
Finally, I'd like to have a iOS-like notification list on the lock screen. So far I managed to get it for some applications (Messages, Whatsapp), but I'd really like to have some system-wide properties.
Generally speaking, can you please give me a link to Android documentation explaining what aspects of notifications it manages system-wide and what is responsibility of each application?
I'd really like to see as much as possible managed by the operating system, but from what I am experiencing it seems that it is exactly the other way round with a lot of settings left to the applications.
Blocking mode is a Samsung feature AFAIK. Maybe WhatsApp is using the media channel for notifications instead of the notifications channel? Not sure.

Take a look at DashClock with one of the many extensions (e.g. AnyDash), NiLS Notifications Lock Screen, or any similar widget.
There's also Floating Notifications, which can show you (bubbles of) your notifications on your lockscreen.
Thanks for the links and for the hypothesis on Whatsapp notifications.
It seems that I have to choose either to have the pattern lock or to add multiple widgets. Am I right?
Is there any way to have both notifications and pattern lock?
I'm afraid pattern lock is again a Samsung specific feature so I'm a concerned about possible integration issues with other widgets.
What about the other question about system-wide vs per-app settings?

Samsung disabled widgets with the secure lockscreen for some reason. There's an Xposed module to re-enable it, but you need the Xposed framework (and root).
I'm not sure about the vibration question.
My device is still not-rooted and I am not very keen on rooting.
I did some research and I found Popup Notifier (Sorry but I still can't post links to external websites) that seems what I need.
I'm going to try it and I'll let you know how it works.

Unfortunately it Popup Notifier is not what I was looking for. I'd like more to have an iOS-like list of notifications rather than popups.
It also felt a bit too hackish that I had to disable text to speech service and enable the app's accessibility service.
I have the feeling that they're misusing accessibility features as a workaround to access notification information.
I see that there are custom lockers. Is it possible to install them without rooting the device? If I install one of them would I be able to setup notifications as I like, add the pattern widget and leave the rest of the system as it is?

All applications need Accessibility to get the notifications' content, prior to Android 4.3, AFAIK. Or root.

You can install custom lockscreens without root, but you'll also need Accessibility.

Did 4.3 introduce new APIs to let applications access notifications?
Is there any new app that already uses them? I'd like to try them on my Nexus 7 and then use one also on my S4 once Samsung releases the updated version of the system.

Applications can now use notification listeners, which allow them to detect new notifications (and when they're cleared) from an app. I think Floating Notifications uses it if you're on 4.3, but it's not exactly what you want.
Yes,unfortunately it's not what I'm looking for. I'll keep checking. I hope new app relying on the new features will be published soon

I came across a few DashClock extensions which do that, although for specific apps. You might want to try a few and see if this is what you want.

You'll need DashClock for these, of course.
Other than that, there's DynamicNotifications you might be interested in. Not quite what you're looking for, but it might do the trick for now.
DynamicNotifications seems very cool. I'll give it a try

Just in case you don't read the portal, this DashClock extension does what you want by using the notification listener features, instead of Accessibility services.
Thanks for sharing the link! I'll give it a try. It is very promising

[MOD][XPOSED][4.1+] All Notifications Expanded

I made a simple Xposed module which causes all notifications to be initially shown in their expanded state inside the notification drawer. (The stock behaviour is that only the first notification is expanded.) Notifications may still be contracted manually and will stay that way.
There is no settings activity. This module just does one thing for now.
Requires Jelly Bean or above with the Xposed framework installed.
Props to @rovo89 for the awesome Xposed framework!
You can grab it from its Xposed Module Repository page.
Said it on my thread and I'll say it again, you are my hero!

Great job, this is a thing I wanted for a long time, and is one of the last 3 things I want to see implemented with xposed (the others can be done without, but AFAIK xposed modules don't use as much ram as standalone apps)
this is something that has bugged me since 4.1. my first notification will be something like email or app updates and ill get a text message and cant just hit reply or make as read without first expanding the notification. one of my top annoyances fixed! thanks, you made my day. all these xposed modules are solving all my problems with android, soon i wont have anything to complain about... im giving out thanks buttons like candy.

Mine would collapse just before clicking whichever button and I would end up clicking the next notification down. I'd have to expand it twice - the second time, it wouldn't collapse.

Great job! I like this module!
I have 2 remarks :
1. Could you let the "permanent" notification behaves like by default? Or offer the option in a settings page?
2. Ideally, there would be a settings page in which we could choose the behavior for each app/package independently...
Thanks

Do permanent notifications have special behaviour in regards to being expanded or not? Let me know exactly what you mean and I can investigate!
For your second suggestion, I have already planned to do this, but unfortunately I think it will have to wait at least until the new year. I have already been naughty working on these modules when I have a million other things to do!

Thanks for the quick reply!
1/ Permanent notifications: they behave differently than other notifications, yes.
Default android behavior (at least here on my JB4.1.2 TouchWiz ROM): you cannot expand them with fingers
With your module: they stay expanded, but then you cannot wrap them with fingers
It's like there is no other interaction possible other than clicking on them. You cannot swipe them away, and you cannot expand/wrap.
So the issue with the module is that the notification stays there wide expanded when sometimes you don't need it, and there is nothing to do about it: it will stay expanded.
Solutions?
A. Ideally... if I can dream... would be that your module allow expand/wrap interaction with these permanent notifications...
Is that possible at all???
B. Backup solution would be to allow a setting to choose to expand or not these permanent notifications
C. A 3rd way to go would be to just let permanent notifications with their default system behavior. After all, we mainly need your module for the temporary notifications: emails, test msg, etc...
Solution C is probably the easiest to code? And would be enough for users (at least for me).
2/ No hurry for the second suggestion. Good to know you plan having this. Will be patient!
If it were put to a vote, I'd vote for C - ignore persistent notifications. B as a second choice. But either way, they need to be manually expandable. I just tried and, he's right, they are not expandable.

I guess perhaps I don't understand what is meant by "permanent notifications". I thought you meant any notification which cannot be swiped away, but I just tried with Google Music and Power Toggles, and both notifications can be contracted and expanded with my module running.
So could you provide some examples of permanent notifications which you cannot contract? Thanks!
@egingell, are you also on a TouchWiz ROM? If TouchWiz notifications have different behaviour, then I'll have to figure out how to support it - right now I'm just working off AOSP source code.

Strange... You understood perfectly what I'm talking about: those persistent notifications that you cannot swipe away...
Well I refer to "App Dialer".
It places a persistent notification. I have 2 other persistent notifications. When the 3 are there, the 2-lines App Dialer one wraps up. Then impossible to unfold with 2 fingers.
With your module, it stays open. Impossible to wrap up...
Can you make a try with App Dialer?
Thanks

I'm going to shed some light on the subject of "permanent" or "ongoing" notifications.
On my S4, with stock TouchWiz Android 4.3, ongoing notifications behave just like other notifications, they are just grouped separately. If there is an ongoing notification that can be expanded, it is expanded by default when the notification shade is opened and all other notifications are collapsed. If there isn't an ongoing notification that can be expanded, the first regular notification is expanded by default.
On my Note 10.1 with stock TouchWiz Android 4.1.2, however, if there is an ongoing notification that can be expanded it will be expanded by default and cannot be collapsed. All other behavior is the same.
On my Galaxy Nexus, which obviously ran AOSP based ROMs, I never remember having an ongoing notification I couldn't expand.
I do not have any mods or exposed modules effecting the behavior of the notifications on either device.
I'm assuming egingell was referring to the behavior on the devices in his signature, so it looks like between 4.2 and 4.3 Samsung changed the behavior of the ongoing notification expansion, and I would assume this only effects TouchWiz ROMs because I don't know of others that group ongoing and regular notifications separately.
EDIT: Make that somewhere between 4.1.2 and 4.3 (See eginell's post above)
I don't know if it's noteworthy, but if there are 4+ notifications (re both 4.1.2 and 4.2.2), persistent and temporary, none are expanded automatically.
Also, I have never seen my ADB WiFi persistent notification auto-expanded. I've always had to expand it myself. Even when one of the other persistent notifications didn't load and there are no temporaries.

Thanks everyone for the information! I will definitely look into this, but I'll just warn you that I don't have any experience with supporting non-AOSP platforms, and won't have any way of testing, so it might take me some time! As with per-app settings, I probably will not have time to work on it before the end of the year (I'm quite busy right now and leaving for a long vacation in a week).
can you consider in adding an option not to expand the first notification (usually the ongoing weather) otherwise :good: job buddy!
I was mistaken when I said JB 4.1.2 (I was thinking of a different mod).
At any rate, on 4.1.2, ADB WiFi's persistent notification is auto expanded with this mod and I can expand/collapse it manually.
And on 4.2.2 with this mod enabled, ADB Wifi's notification is not auto expanded and I cannot manually expand/collapse it.
Both TouchWiz.

Just thought I'd post my findings.
Running 4.2.2 stock based rom on my Xperia Z, all seems good.
All that can be expanded are, and persistent (in my case I used Walkman whilst playing) started open, and I was able to close then up if I wanted.
Walkman is definitely persistent, as I can't swipe it away, unless you're on about a different type.

I don't think this is possible to remove the blur. It was introduced already in the good lock app quickstar on android 8 and now they added it as default.
when I pull down the notification bar there is no lag though. But I am using the feature "reduce animations" which I really like.. way better than setting animations to 0 in dev options..
Is there any way to make the icons in the quick settings smaller though? They are waaaay to big for me and is killing the experience.

it doesnt lag in the home screen - but the animation is terrible when u do it in the lock screen - partially because it decides for you to open the entire drawer

At the beginning i thinked the same, but the content is Blurred to focus on The Notification Pannel i guess, When you touch the status bar The Blur Animation(Transition) was a nice effect, they should leave it as optional and Not Remove it fully

I have the Galaxy Note 8 and the Galaxy Note 9 side by side, both running Android pie. I wasn't paying attention at first, but I noticed something after I installed a good lock, which worked perfectly on my Galaxy Note 9. Upon uninstalling good lock, it is around this time that I noticed that there is a blur background when I pull on my notification bar. But I cannot remember if it was always like that. Comparing it to the Android pie in note8, this is not the case. The background remains transparent but a little bit dimmed, which is what I prefer.

Smaller or are we able to add more than 6 on the top row? Hell my s7 or s5 I think I could have 8 icons on the top. Makes it way more convenient when accessing things. I noticed with Oreo I can have 6 and there is no where that I can find that I can add more... Is this a feature that Oreo removed?

Question Are there any ROMs that fix the android 12 ugly UI back to something like android 11?

Title says it all, I hate the bubble toggles that take up the entire screen and require multiple taps. I'm familiar with rooting, and flashing just curious what ROMs are available to help fix this. Thank you in advance!
To the best of my recollection, none as the UI elements are baked into the source code. To go back to the Android 11 UI I think you would need to use an Android 11 ROM, none of which exist for the P6.
Aosp mods does but u lose icon name. It's great to have circle icons again
Use Nova launcher and you can change the look of a lot of the elements. No root needed.

Well, the OP did mention bubble toggles in his opening post. Agreed that being more specific would have helped. Thank you for the reminder about what kind of work it takes to mod the UI, as I haven't done it in years, especially with Substratum making it painless.
why couldn't someone build android 11 for the pixel 6? any reason it not possible?
I guess the OP is talking about the ugly quick settings with large tiles that take up space and requires multiple clicks to adjust internet and other settings.
The product design of software is the worst I have seen.
Nova launcher cannot alter the quick settings.
