WhatsApp and Nougat? - LG G5 Questions & Answers

For some reason on Nougat, I'm only getting a notification for the most recent message in a chat on whatsapp? On 6.0 if I had 5 unread messages i could expand the notification to see every message, but Nougat only allows me to see and reply to the most recent one which is annoying? Anyone else got this issue or know how I can set it how it was in 6.0?

Expand them, and click the little arrow near the time it was received, the reply option will drop down

No thats not the issue. If I get sent 5 messages, it only shows 1 message in the notifications. It doesn't show all 5

SMS Today screen # wont refresh

Hi,
I just flashed my ROM and the message icon on the front page (today screen) occasionally shows that I have one or 2 messages in my SMS/Text area, but there in fact is nothing at all inside (folder is empty). How do I refresh and remove the number 1 or 2 icon next to the message image on the SMS today screen?
Thanks for your help.

Sometimes it does this with MMS i found. I just go into the message and fiddle around and then it goes. I dont know if thats the real reason for it but it fixed it for me!

Gotcha And Is there a way you can add custom sounds to the Alarm or for Incoming text messages? I searched other areas of the forums and I converted it to .wav, however, the file still wont appear in the Alarm "Ringtone" dropdown box. This is the same case for text messages under Settings > Sounds and Notifications as well
EDIT: I guess I'll use gAlarm. If anyone has a cab or fix for the SMS/Text issue im having that would be great. I'm using Shpes rom. Thanks.

No there's nothing there. Does anyone have any ideas please? It shows "1" message in the SMS/MMS Inbox but there isn't anything in the folder. On the bottom it displays SMS/MMS 0 Items.
EDIT: I've also tried using the "Clear SMS/MMS message tool under settings, however, there seems to be 1 message stuck and I cant get the icon off my today screen Any help would be appreciated.
May be you can just text yourself a msg , and when you receive your own msg , see if the icon makes any change .

[BRAINSTORM] Texting in the Notification bar.

I just had an idea. Instead of texting by switching applications, what if you could just pull down the notification window, type a message and read it. If it worked with Google Voice, that would be very cool too!
I have no idea how to code this, but I am a designer and could create some pretty GUI for it.
You could try something like SMSPopup or the popup+quick compose shortcut that handcent has
Do you mean compose an entirely new message in the notification bar or reply to one you received?

I like his idea, I wouldn't mind seeing something official or official looking that popped up when long pressing an SMS notification that let you select reply, that kept you in your current app but popped up for replying like QuickDesk or SMS Popup does.

Maybe, but if you could send texts from the notification bar, next thing is someone else would want to send emails, someone else would want to make voice calls, someone else order pizzas and the next thing you know the purpose of the notification bar is lost in a jumble of features ... what's so difficult about pressing the sms icon to send a text?
Kind of pointless seeing how as you're one click and several milliseconds away from the full fledged SMS app. Remember, this isn't an iPhone, stuff works here - fast.
The notification bar is just that, a notification bar.

True. But I don't see why notifications can't have long-press options. The problem is, this would sorta have to be on a per-app basis. Meaning nobody would make an app that included a menu for the notification unless it was an official feature from Google, a part of Android 2.5, for example.

I was thinking that it would be a good idea to create something like what the OP wants, but I really like your response and you make a good point.
My two cense [yeah im UK so cant spell that word xD]
1) Popup SMS, I installed it very early on in my N1 career, never uninstalled it, its perfect for me.
2) While we dont NEED this, it would be interesting to see if its possible to type in the notification bar, as there may be other uses.
this gives me an idea too
i always hate going back to home or clicking music playing notification to change music.
If there was a little previous, play/pause and next icon it would be awesome. As the status bar is nearly always visible we never have to exit the current app we're in.
Hopefully someone can do this
but yeah sms would be cool too
A stinky note / drawing pad would be cool too. Just a way to quickly write a note, be it a phone number or grocery list, and view it anywhere without minimizing the current application.
Even though there are dedicated apps for all of this, the ease of use and speed of the notification bar are noticeable. The Framework is always running in the foreground.

Pop-up Notifications When V30 Always On is activated?

Is there a way to get notifications to pop-up when the always on display is active?
You get the icon above the clock. Are you wanting a whole heads up notification or something? The screen to turn on? I don't think there is an option for something like that. At least I haven't seen one.

Yes - I would prefer a pop-up notification for text messages, emails. Was hoping there was a setting I was missing to be able to allow this.
Thanks.

It only shows an icon. I wish it showed the actual message Like Pixel does. but it does not. If your main concern is text messages you can download something like Textra which has an option to wake up the phone when I message arrives. Then you will see the message.

Is there somewhere an app that will also show pop-up messages? Using the Outlook app for example...I find it totally worthless that I get a notification sound but absolutely no popup. I don't want to have to pull the notification center down, I just want a pop up showing the message that I just received.
On that note, I *HATE* how the lock screen INSISTS on combining notifications from an app. If I get 10 emails, I want to see 10 separate notification entries, damn it.
Using Android....is, well, annoying. I shouldn't have to download apps just to make everything work. No wonder my wife rejected the V30 and went back to iOS.

Believe it or not Android is getting better and better with how notifications are handled and how they can be custom tailored per each app. The usage of the notification center is that way for a reason for quick and easy access to your notifications without completely interrupting the user. The cool thing is that there are other apps that you can use in order to adjust the phone to perform how you want it. Android is all about customization. You can have it the way it comes from the manufacturer or you can add apps to customize your experience. For this reason it may take an Android user longer to initially set up a phone vs a iUser.
Good luck.

Expanding Notifications on Lockscreen?

Is anyone able to expand the notifications on the lock screen and take actions like quick reply or delete an e-mail??
Since EMUI 8 a lot of users are unable to expand the notifications from the lockscreen which is really annoying.
I hope Huawei fixed that for the Mate 20 pro...
For me it's a crucial feature to have.
I just read that the AOD won't show 3rd party app notifications??? What's wrong with Huawei!
Expandable LS Notifications and AOD Notifications are must haves for every Android phone!!
EMUI destroys this beautiful smartphone
Maybe time to flood their twitter and fb with this, the more we push on it... They might listen
I don't understand why they are doing this?! It takes big advantages of lockscreen and aod.
The mate 20 pro is such a great phone and they ruin it with this software...
Guys,
100%. If you like the phone but something ig stopping you from purchasing, INFORM HUAEWEI. If sometihng is wrong or a key feature isn't working as expected, TELL HUAWEI...
You should absolutely inundate them with enquiries via Twitter, email, Facebook and their website about this sort of thing. Why? Because it will be worth it in the end. There's at least a CHANCE they'll make the change with a software update.

Deleting an E-Mail works now (at least with Gmail on 122). I can push the little downwards arrow and the notification expands on the lock screen.
I find this incredibly annoying. What is the point of even having these notifications if you can't expand them to see what they are for!?

You can interact with lockscreen notifications. If you click on the arrow in the notification itself, you’ll then see options to interact with the notification. It’s a rather simple implementation, but you have to first click the arrow to then expand it.

Doesn't work for me. Click the down arrow and it invites me to click it again, this brings up the face unlock screen rather than any further detail from the notification?

Go to Security ——> Face Recognition ——-> Smart Lock Screen Notifications. Make sure that’s clicked off. See if that helps.

Not sure why you’re experiencing this issue. I can interact with notifications with no issues. A simple double tap on the arrow and I can reply, delete, etc. No issues whatsoever.
Lock screen notifications are kept private until the phone recognizes your registered face... It's a privacy feature...

Something to add from myself, expanding works on 122 firmware. But, for Whatsapp and Messenger when you unlock the screen, expand the notification, the messege text disappears (like on screenshot). Anybody encountered such bug?
I'm having the same issue with the blank notifications (looks like the font is white but not sure)

On 10.0.0.154 can somebody use the Bubbles notification?

If yes, how? Exactly what should be set?
I tried everything, in the developer settings the bubble usage is set, at the app also set.
Any idea?
Same problem
I enabled it but till now I don't know how it should be used. Seems that there will be some next update to fix this issue maybe and also the issue that the AOD is still the same as EMUI9.1
I enabled it in Developer Settings, the last option down. im on emui 10
Ok. The question is : does it works?
Do you receive bubble notifications?
Of course I enabled the bubbles in the developer settings, but I receive NO bubble notifications.

The only thing I did was enable enable Banners and Sprechblasse (speech bubble). you can go there by setting-Apps-Gmail-Notifications. And Bubbles ind Developer Options of course must be enabled. Thats all i did
Or you can go to Gmail Settings and choose your email and then manageNotifications
Dav,
thank you. I tried everything (I think) but simple do not have the bubbles...
I receive the banner, but not the bubbles notification.
I keep testing...

I tried to activate bubbles but no lucks...
Hello Dav,
just be be sure, are you speaking about bubbles like Messenger produces?
Not heads up notifications (a rectangle at the top of the screen)?
Could you send a screenshot?
Thanks a lot
