I find I almost always expand the notification anyway!
Why not just show full card by default, like pebble does?
this wouldn't work for ongoing notifications, but certainly email/sms/chats could use it.
Is this even an option available to apps?

I don't know if this is possible, but i think it would be awesome to have an option to hide the icons for on going notifications from the top notification bar. It would keep it in the pull down though. If it could force all the ongoing notifications to the bottom it would be even better.
I hope this made sense to you guys.....I think it would be awesome to include in the cyanogen options menu (if it were in cyanogen mod, which I hope someday it will be).

I agree!
I want a way to hide ongoing notifications but NOT disable them (Tasker, Juice Defender, Llama). OR, I would LOVE to be able to still have access to them. For example, Power Toggles allows us to put almost anything as a toggle in the notification pane. Custom images etc.
Can we just use this method to combine the ongoing notifications? This way they are still active, we can still see them, but they are not taking up valuable space. Alternatively, let's push them to the bottom!
I use my GNex as my primary workhouse. The ONLY thing it doesnt do that I would love (and honestly, I need it) is for a lockscreen notification for my calendars and maybe even SMS.
When my screen is locked, I get the vibration/sound but I really would like it to light up the screen and show a popup notification (aka iPhones)
How can I get this? I suspect an App won't do? Do any ROM's support this (AOKP?)
Does such a thing exist?
For text messages, check out SMS popup - not sure if it works on a lockscreen or not but seems to be a solid app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.everythingandroid.smspopup&hl=en
Use Notifierpro

Lockscreen notifications
Hi.
Nicolas from Productigeeky here, creator of NotifierPro.
To get lockscreen notifications, you may want to try our last app LockerPro Lockscreen.
This is a lockscreen replacement with stacking notifications.
Regards.
I looked around a bit but I didn't find any info about what I want to do.
Basically I am a minimalist person and not very cluttered/social so I don't use/need any widgets or large number of apps installed; so my desktop right now is completely empty. I also have been playing with gestures and completely full screen on my phone. Which means I use gestures for my softkeys and such, event to open the app drawer and quick launcher.
Now I am looking to never have to toggle the notification shade back on to see what if any activity is going on my device.
Ideally I would like one simple widget on the desktop that would provide any and all notifications, everything from screenshots or app updates to gmail and missed calls. Also the basics like time/date/battery/signal/etc. I am not sure if anything like this exists or is possible but I am interested to find a Global notification replacement.
The ultimate goal is to disable the lock screen entirely and rely completely on the desktop info for notifications and the like.
Any info or insight to this would be amazing and I am grateful for any help anyone can provide. Thank you.

I have heard about this bug on many LG phones updated to 5.0+, and I can't for the life of me figure out why LG hasn't fixed this yet. It wasn't until recently that I was able to figure out a "fix" to expand notifications in the pull-down shade. If this was already posted, I apologize but I never saw anything about it.
When you pull down your notification shade, you can't expand notifications. However if you slide up on the quick toggles to make them disappear but your notifications stay, you can now pull down on the notifications to expand them! This worked on my Verizon G4, let me know if it works on other models as well.
Not broken or a bug, just poorly implemented. The problem is the quick settings expand automatically. Even in stock Android, you can't expand notifications when the quick settings are expanded so you have to hide them first.

is there a way to stop this? it's very annoying. I'm rooted and have xposed, it should be possible right?
I imagine that it's theoretically possible assuming a developer takes the time to code the appropriate mod.
Guys,
How do I stop apps from running in the background?
Check my attached screenshot of battery stats, where snaptube and beam was running in the background, although I never opened them for the day.
Is there an option in settings to do it like Samsung does, or Do I have to depend on an App ?
Thanks in Advance!

That's some pretty bad battery drain for apps that you haven't even used. You could try greenify.

Best options I'd say:
- Disable Background Activity (app info - battery) - though this may mess with any notifications you may want to receive
- Disable Background data (app info - Data Usage - Background Data) - again, perhaps no notifications
- Battery optimisation - ensure android is optimising battery usage
- Disable notifications from within the app, which should reduce battery usage though of course at the expense of not receiving notifications (could just manually check?)
Another option is to use App ops (comes with NitrogenOS custom rom) or install it from the Playstore. This will allow you to further tweak app permissions, specifically "auto-start", "keep awake" and "run in background".
Lastly for some apps it may be a better option to eithern find an alternative, where available, or not to bother with the app and just use the web interface instead. For example, I don't bother with Facebook and used Folio for a while. Now I just settle for the web interface (with messenger lite installed for messages) and have a shortcut to the site on my home screen (which you can even change the icon to a Facebook one).
Though also I see you using Snaptube (video downloader?) and so downloading will be a battery drainer too, so if this is the case use WiFi where possible.
Many options, decide which fits best for you
Great reply right here. Was just about to say the first few options as they're built-in. Good thing I scrolled down. LOL

THANK YOU! for taking time to compose this fantastic response.
Initially I was lost because I coudn't find the option to kill background activity in the app settings. However since you've mentioned it here, I checked again.
Apparently that option is not shown for some apps. But a few, Like Snaptube does have that option. For the one's that doesn't have it - I used Greenify.
Battery Optimization, Yes Enabled.
Notifications were also a good tip, Killed all except the messenger and Email apps.
