System UI Notifications Blocked - TouchWiz - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a weird problem. I got the Note 8 a little while ago, and everything was fine for a while. However, I one day noticed that the phone didn't show a notification when DND was on, or charging information in the notification shade when plugged in. After lots of searching, I've found that the System UI app in Settings is set to not show notifications. When I try to press the notifications in the app details, it takes me to a panel that just says System UI, and when I press it, it goes straight back to the app details, but what looks like in a new page. It's pretty much a loop, and I cannot seem to turn the notifications back on. Does anyone know how to fix this without having to reset the device? Thanks!

Download and install SystemUI Tuner, grant the permissions over ADB, then in Miscellaneous enable Power Notification Controls and then you can re-enable them.
Here is how to grant permission

[Q] Disabling heads up notifications on Lollipop

Hello,
I've updated my WhatsApp last night to v2.11.476 and it starts showing heads up notifications that, no matter what i try, unable to turn off. This only happens to individual chats though. Group chats still behave like before, i.e. icon just show up in the notification bar.
I also cant disable the vibrations no matter which settings i use. This is driving me nuts. Is there a way i can tun the heads up notifications off ONLY for specific apps? I suppose once I'm able to do this the problem with the vibrations will go off too.
Thanks.
With HeadsOff lollipop heads-up notifications can now be disabled!
No root needed.
You can also restore the ticker text in the statusbar!

Widgets not refreshing [MIUI Global 7.2.5.0] [Snapdragon]

This little problem is very annoying, I have a reddit and a twitter widget that will not refresh or update unless I manually open the respective applications, I also have a clock widget that has a random alarm notification for Friday 0:00, I have no alarms set that I can find.
I am using nova launcher prime, any help?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Going into settings -> additional settings -> Battery -> Manage apps battery usage: then turning off the power saving mode seems to have fixed it.
EDIT2: Clock widget still showing seemingly random alarms. now it says there is an alarm for Friday 7:41pm
try the "files" app, theres a clean up at the bottom. after that is done there are a few new options like virus scan and also auto start. i'm on global beta and there is everything turned off by default. i did not even receive whatsapps properly until i turned it on there. a little hard to find for such an important option imo but the battery endurance was nice while you are nearly in plane mode D
Launch the widget app. Look at it in background mode. Swipe down. Unlock. I have seen others use this technique but lock it, mine was already locked so I unlocked and it started updating.

What do you use for Notifications?

Coming from a LGv20, where I used the following combo: Cute little bar at the top showed time & an icon for missed notifications (similar to the Always On Display), and an app called Dynamic Notifications.
The idea on the 2 of those, was: If I got a notification while I was able to look at my phone, Dynamic would show it to me, along with a preview of what the message is. You can slide to open it, ignore it for now, or delete it (depending on the app). If I wasn't looking at my phone, I'd at least see an icon on the top bar so I knew to go look.
AOD does fine for the time & you missed a notification, but when I get one, and my phone is sitting next to me, it's annoying to unlock the phone to check the notification.
Sadly, AOD & Dynamic notifications don't seem to work well together.
--
Now when the phone is on, I'm not getting my heads-up notifications, and I don't know i the LG did it on its own..o what. So I'm using an app called Heads-up at the moment. Heads-up also has a turn-on-phone feature, so I'm testing it and AOD display as a combination.
Oddly though, Go SMS isn't working with Heads-up, and I'm not always getting the Go SMS built in popup.
---
SO.. what is everyone doing for notification, both with phone on & off?
One last thing - edge lighting - looks neat, but I never put my phone face down. Would kind of kill AOD anyway, no?

Questions about pop-up notifications

So I just recently bought this device about 3 days ago. I'm a former iOS user and I'm really missing pop-up notifications on this device.
I'm aware that they do exist and work, but not in my case.
I've tried setting setting up App launch, Notification management settings, manually checking if an app like Messenger has notifications enabled.
I am getting notifications to my lock screen and status bar, sound and vibration, but I'm not getting pop up notifications while I'm doing something on my phone which is really annoying.
I've also disabled notifications on the status bar, but I'm pretty sure that's not the problem.
Another thing I've tried is using a fake notification app and setting up a custom notification. It works just like described above while the priority is set to 'normal'. When I set it to 'high' priority, only then it gives me a pop up notification.
Sorry if I'm not very clear on this.
I'm running EMUI 8.2.0 and Android 8.1.0, also using Nova launcher prime if that's any useful info.
Thanks

Hide DND-Icon in status bar in Android Pie

Hello,
in Oreo I could just tap hold the text and disable the notification, iirc. In Pie I just get the info that notifications from this app can't be disabled (System UI). I tried System UI Tuner as well but it didn't work as well.
Did anybody achieve this already?
@ChazzMatt
Could you please drop some knowledge?
I have Do Not Disturb activated at all times so I don't need to be informed about it.
I stayed on stock rooted Oreo, so have no day to day knowledge of LG Pie quirks. Sorry.
However, on a similar note, I reverted back to older version of some apps (My Data Manager being one) -- where newer versions insisted upon putting an icon up in the notification bar area when they are running. That particular app runs all the time and I have a widget on my pull down bar which tells me my monthly data total at any moment. I know it's running in the background, but I don't want to see an icon all the time up in the area where NOTIFICATIONS go. Keeps making me think I have new mail, a new text, something....
Up until about the time Pie came out, I could manually disable the notification bar "badge". With updated versions of the app I could not. So, I reverted to older version from APK Mirror on mine, my wife's, my mother's phones and UNchecked auto update on Google Play for that app.
There's other apps where I stay on older versions for functionality reasons.
Thank you for your insights!
Seems like I should have stayed on Oreo.
On another note I fiddled around with Automagic and was able to hide notifications for the system app System-UI altogether, but that also hides some other notifications I'd like to keep. But it shows that it should be possible. In SystemUI Tuner you can add custom tweaks if you know the right variables and values. Maybe someone knows where one can find the right values.
The solution that I'm using now is setting a custom sleep duration via System UI Tuner to 9999 and only having to worry every few months about it.
Does anybody know what's the maximum duration?
