So here's a question which seems easy at first...
How can I remove a persistent lock screen notification for a specific app on stock lollipop?
I have an alarm app that shows the next alarm as a lock screen notification. The app does not have any settings per say regarding notifications. I used this app on previous android versions (Kit Kat) because I can never wake up to the default alarm app. Since upgrading, that lock screen notification is an eye sore.
I know that on other phones, there is an additional setting in the app specific notifications section for this but not the G3.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I'm using an app on the paranoid android ROM. Its a proxy app and every time it connects I get a notification saying "you've been connected". However when that happens it appears on the top of the screen and I can't slide the notification away. I've already tried black listing the app and stop notifications from the android settings menu. But the notifications keep on coming. How can I completely stop all the notifications from that app?
Just installed Lollypop on my new M8. I can't find a way if turning off notifications on the lock screen but leaving them working on the notification bar.
The help says this.
"Lock screen notifications
Choose the types of notifications to show or hide on the lock screen. Go to Settings, and then tapSecurity.Under*Lock screen, tapNotification settings.Choose whether to show or hide notifications such as missed calls and text messages. "
But on mine, there is no "Notifications" under Lock Screen, just "Incoming Phone Calls". Has my install gone wrong? Do others have the correct menu item? Is there another way of turning off lock screen notifications?
Thanks.

Try this :
settings - security than reset your lockscreen. Reset it the way you want and it will ask you again to show notifications or not.
Worked for me for the lock pattern.
Thanks. That is one answer - I had answered to hide sensitive info but didn't like the opaque notifications. They'd be ok if they were transparent.
I've now found another way, not mentioned in the help and tips. Go to Sound & Notifications | When device is locked. However, that only gives on or off, not the sensitive info option.
I'd love to make them transparent again. Has anyone found a way of doing that?
I've also found you can turn them off app by app by pressing & holding the notification on the lock screen but then you never see another notification from that app until you turn it back on (Sound & Notifications | App Notifications).

Anyone?
Is there a way of making notifications on the lock screen (or the notification bar) transparent (or black)?

I was wondering if anyone can elaborate on enabling the peeking feature for notifications on 6.0 update?..as far as I can tell it's enabled for all my apps, yet I'm not receiving any notification at top of screen from any app. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
I've never heard of such a feature. What do you mean?
Part of the 6.0 update was peeking notification. U can access it through, settings, apps, then select the notification settings for each app...it's like toast notification. If you Google it or check lg update page it details this feature as part of update, but it's not working for me
If its the one where screens off andnslide down to see notifs. Lock screen must be enabled
As per the thread title Does block all notifications disable persistent notifications in the background?
Reason for asking is I am trying out forcedoze which needs a persistent notification to prevent it from being killed in the back ground but I do not like persistent notifications.
So if I block all notifications for forcedoze does it kill the persistent notification or merely prevent it from being shown on the pull down menu but it's still there but you cannot see it?
Prevent app doze / hibernation without persistent notification
Same here. I'm trying to have automatic call recorder pro not stop recording calls if i don't use its UI for a few days. One of its settings called "run in the background" - "wait for calls while running in the background" puts a persistent notification, which i have blocked. I hope that this notification blocking will not lead to the app getting automatically hibernated in the future.
-Android Nougat on the OnePlus 3T
If in Nougat, you can disable it and the app still running in background.
If in Oreo, if you disable it, Android own notification message will come out saying the app is still running in background and draining battery. If you have 2 or more apps running in background, it will be better to disable all apps notification and only have 1 Android notification informing about it.
There are several notifications that are annoying to say the least.
We have a lot of control to handle app notifications that appear, but this is a system notification it seems, I can't identify what system feature is triggering the alert, then of course disabling it.
Running the Oreo Beta on a fresh install.
One of the notifications is: "blah blah app is using the battery, select for more details..." or something to that affect. It is a Android system notification, but I can't figure out what triggers that one and how to disable it.
Example, Life 360 app running in the background all the time, the alert will randomly show in the notification bar. Just swiping down and looking at it often makes it go away, I don't select it, or I just clear the alerts with the bars at the bottom.
Thanks
Go to Google Play and search for an app called "Hide 'running in the background' Notification" by iboalali.
Awesome. Thanks
