Hello!
My wife has a LG G3 S (D772) and lately she has been receiving these weird notifications in black boxes on her home screen. She is running stock Lollipop ROM.
It's from a trusted retailer that we have bought from before but neither of us have seen these kind of notifications before. The button on the left says Save and the one on the right says Cancel. Here's what it looks like.
Anyone seen this before? What are these exactly?
Thanks!

Looks as if its a third party app try booting into safe mode for a few hours maybe longer and see if it still pops up if it do3s not its most def 3rd party app...
Look in settings and permissions and see what can draw over the screen and notifications

I've noticed that sometimes when I unlock my device I have a black screen with only the "multi-task" button and the status bar visible. It will stay like this until I "lock" the phone and unlock it again. Touching the "multi-task" button makes the rest of the buttons appear but touching them still doesn't make the screen respond. I have noticed this on both stock and custom rom. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas on a fix or cause?
I am using the Virgin/Bell Canada GSM version.
Thanks
ps. I've posted a pic to give people an idea of what I'm getting....as it may seem unclear in my explanation.
At first this sounded similar to a problem I had.. I installed Wave Launcher, which for some reason did not play well with my phone. I would unlock the screen and the screen would immediately go black as if it had shut off, but I could still push buttons and receive haptic feedback. I had to have someone call me and delete the app while I was in the call.. it sounds kind of similar but not really.. my first guess would be some sort of problem with an app being incompatible.

I wanted to pass this on...I was reading in the Team Kang rom that there is a "bugfix version: app navigation menu icons no longer disappear after unlocking phone". So I hope this is what relates to my problem and has been "fixed"!
I am a new user of android(from iphone)
htc one x is my first android phone, it is really a good phone.
but i found that when my screen is sleep. if some one send me a text message, i can just heard a tone but the screen is still sleep (black), you can't see some notification until I press the top button to unlock the phone.
because for iphone, i can see something if the screen is sleep.
i know there must be some settings i don't know. anybody can help me for that?

The screen doesn't wake when you get a message only when you get a phone call, there may be an application or someone could make a modification to allow this

thanks for your reply.
i am wondering is that only for htc one x or only for htc or only for android os?
There is a cool paid app called pops which will light the screen when a text, email, facebook, or twatter message comes though

From what I have experienced it is seen throughout the Android OS, but as I said a modification could exist or an application on the play store
You can also try using Go SMS, there's an option for msg pop up and direct reply. I used to like it on my Desire Z, but the stock messaging app is just so nice xD
Rocking the Lee on my HTC One X
Use Sms Popup - does exactly what iphone does =] (and can even set a mode to make the message pop up private so that the name/message doesnt appear straight away). Plus you can still use the stock messaging app.
If you only want the screen to light up, Tasker can do this. Tasker in combination with Secure Settings (which you can find here on XDA)

I know this isn,t going to help you but my HOX does this on the standard unrooted 1.28 ROM for some reason. The funny thing is that it also started doing this for my emails a week ago without me changing anything! Also I hate this feature and wanted it to go back to how it should behave as standard but I haven' t been able to turn it off.

Hi,
I got my new G3 yesterday, and today noticed something kind of peculiar.
The notifications from WhatsApp don't appear in the notification scroll down screen.
I do feel a vibration, yet unless I get into WhatsApp, I'm unable to know if I got any new texts.
*Am using G3 TweakBox and Nova Launcher*
Any help?
Thanks.
P. S
is there a way to show notifications right on the lock screen? (like iOS)

Acdisplay is awesome. Shows all sorts of notifications on the lock screen. Just like Moto X.

Intresting issue. I never got any notification issue on my G3. Also if you want to see notifications on lock screen 3rd party apps will helps you. Here is lockscreen as you requested https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slidelock.
I greenified WhatsApp once.
Although now de-greenified, maybe this has something to do with the issues?
I just don't get it, I am getting old messages when I open the app, yet I do not get notifications for them when they are actually sent.
Anyone?
I am having something weird happen that I never noticed before. Just completely reflashed it and it is still doing it. D850 (att) just FYI.
Basically the issue is this. If you leave certain apps running (phone, messaging, settings) and it locks...when you next unlock it, the status bar at the top has a white background ever so briefly before it goes to the color it is supposed to be. It seems timed along with the drawing of the nav bar at the bottom. I never noticed it before but it is kind of bugging me. I'm pretty sure this is a new thing.
Steps to reproduce:
Open the stock phone app.
Lock the phone
Unlock
Stare at the status bar.
Does it turn white before going to the color it is supposed to be?
Not every app does it. I was rooted and running tweaksbox before. I just reflashed and it still seems to be happening.
I certainly allow for the possibility that I just never noticed it before.

Same here but not if I just use the knock code to unlock. If I use the power button to go to the lock screen and then use the knock code it happens. 855 btw
Never noticed that, but yep flashes white from locked. Damn how can I unsee that
Mine doesn't flash any color. It just stays the same.
Mine did the same thing, ive hidden the notification bar and it stopped.
I have Verizon and it does it also.

How did you do this? What does this do exactly. Keep icons from showing at the top? Do you still have the notifications panel? (Pull down shade from the top)
Mine does this too (10h rooted with g3 tweaksbox); ive noticed it does it whilst the 'battery circle + value' is still loading, so i take it its the amount of time the cpu needs to properly render it.
It's under a second so it doesn't bug me.

Yes just hide the icons up top, on screen options you can do it

Same, but have noticed it before on other apps.
mine does this also. sprint rooted with tweakbox. it only does it if i unlock the phone using the power button.
Mine does this aswell and it keeps getting more freqent as i open apps. Anyone found a solution yet?
Yep mine too
Mine does it as well on sprint. I've noticed it do it with the nav bar as well in the past.

Hi gents, I think I found solution, it bugged me before and I had circle case so when I turned off use circle case in settings it stopped.. I think that's it.. Cheers!
Most of all notifications dont work or pop up unless i bring phone from lock or screen off. i have looked into alot of things but still it doesnt work right and with this issue even the tile doesnt work. i think gmail and phone and texts but thats about it. also im not sure if its due to pie or these newer phones.
Do you mean, when a notification comes in, the screen stays off and does not show the notification pop-up? Like what Apple iOS or BlackBerry 10 does?
Do you still hear the notification sound (if you have one set)?
Does the notification LED at least blink (again, if it's set for that)?
By design, Android doesn't turn the screen on. Not sure if it ever woke the screen up for notifications. Maybe some OEM UIs did that, but Samsung doesn't.
Look up "Glimpse Notifications" in the Play Store. That's what I use on my S9. Works great. Also have it on my Fire HD8 tablet.
Nah it's like as if the app isn't running in the background or just doesn't give notifications while screen is off specially with like discord but with tile works with phone unlocked but with screen off.
Okay. That's something I'm not familiar with. Someone else will have to chime in.

I have the exact same problem.
I have to press the power button to see and hear the notification.
