as the title states, I would like to know if there is away that I am not seeing to disable the screen illuminating when I receive a notification (sms, email.. etc)
I don't like this feature, the phone already tells me via audio notification that I have received a message and I think it is a battery drainer (not matter how minuscule) I'd like to have some control over this...
With my screen off, it lights up when I receive a message and I would like to disable this function. I already have LED notification turned off...
I hope I was able to communicate my desire
Thanks in advance for your help

Oops, you got a free thanks. The way I dealt with it was to install Handcent and then disable the stock messaging application. But I'm on US Cellular and I'm not sure how much different our phones are. Handcent has MANY more features than the stock application as a perk also.

That is an alternative yes. I would like to keep the stock app though because it's been my experience to have lots of problems with third party messaging apps. For example, I am unable to use MightText while using some third party apps. Sometimes the apps update and have FC closes afterwards.
If you didn't mean to give me a thanks, can't you take it back... I mean if you really wanted too, don't get me wrong, I'll take all the thanks I can get!
I'd also be interested in this..I find it super anoying.
Edit: Gave in and installed Go SMS with a GSIII theme.
here's a solution if anyone is still looking for one

Hi there!
I am getting crazy because of that. Since I upgraded to Android 5 I get those stupid floating notifications every time I receive a message on WhatsApp or Threema. I have disabled the pop up notifications in the respective App but it doesn't help. I hate it, that half of my screen is blocked while someone writes me messages. The only way to disable that is to disable all kind of notifications of the App.
Has anyone a solution?

I only ever get floating notifications with text messages, i have Whatsapp installed and do not get floating notifications for this at all, i haven't changed any settings in it either so not sure why you are getting it, im on latest 20p firmware.
I don't understand that. The attached Screenshot shows how it looks like when I receive a message on WhatsApp.
I am on v20h firmware.

Ohhh that floating notification, hmm yes i do actually get that, i think its part of UI really and i haven't seen any global settings where you can turn it off
Exactly, don't know if that type of notification have another name. I wrote to LG and asked how to disable it. I am afraid there is no possibility, yet, so I also told them to change this annoying thing asap..
When the screen is locked there is no notification sound when an event reminder is due. As soon as I unlock the screen the notification sound is played. This is very unsatisfactory as an appointment can be easily missed. This is happening with my Google Calendar app. Please help me to fix it.
It is a bug in EMUI, it happens for me in other updates, I don't know if I received a message until I look at the phone.
Annoying
really , i got normal in my H8

Same as me
this is very important for me....can anyone help me with a solution?
The last two custom ROM's I've been on were both 100% clean flashes and running correct f/w.
And Hangouts seems slightly broken on both?
It will only notify me of new text messages AFTER I hope the app.
I've verified Hangouts is not set to use battery saver.
Verified Hangouts notifications are turned on.
Anyone else experiencing this?
.
I located and made these three changes. So far, so good.
Ignore the volume screenshot
This is driving me crazy. On DU with custom kernel and I am missing notifications from hangout.
I'm trying to understand your screenshots but it's not clear what I need to do.
I've disabled the battery optimization for that app, however, it's still not notifying when I get a message or a call (I've enabled both in hangout settings)
Any help brother?

I'm not totally sure since I wasn't paying attention when I did those changes.
But start by going into system settings | battery | and ensure power savings is turned off.
Then go into system settings | sound and ensure "do not disturb" is set to off.
I *think* those are the only two things I did.
My Hangouts notifications have been working flawlessly since then!
Thank you for quick response It's working again.

AWESOME! :highfive:
So a friend and I got the 13 Pro for 2 days and we already encountered so many problems, most of them I've been able to fix, but there are two remaining that I can't manage to fix, and not the least.
Firstly, we don't receive push notifications for Gmail. Notifications are enabled for Gmail in phone settings, in the Gmail app, and battery saver is disabled for the app. Everything seems normal. We tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, rebooting the phone, clearing data of the app. Nothing works.
Secondly, when sending a voice message on Instagram, the voice waveform is flat. Like there is no sound. But there is actually sound, it just shows like there is not. Not a huge problem in itself but it's quite disturbing when a recording a message, and for the person who receives it.
Also, not really a problem but still deserves an honorable mention, as stated previously, my friend and I have the same phone, (Xiaomi 13 Pro 12/256GB, MIUI 14.0.15, Model 2210132G). His torch light is yellowish, like most of the phones I'd say, while mine is very white and bright. We just don't know why...
Any help would be very appreciated, especially for the Gmail issue which is very problematic
(screenshots attached for more details)
I assume you have granted permissions to Gmail, even though it is not mentioned in the post.
Version of the rom(full name)?.
Yes permissions for notifications were granted to Gmail on the first launch of the app.
The ROM full name is 14.0.15.0(TMBEUXM)

I can't find this rom.
Long press on the Gmail icon/information/permissions :
Allow all (always allow except sms).
That's weird, this is the ROM for Europe I guess, I didn't installed anything else, just updated the the software when prompted on first boot
So I gave all permissions to Gmail.

The screen shot does not correspond with what I told you above.
Couldn't find "Allow all (always allow except sms)" when going to Gmail information while long pressing the app icon so I thought you just meant to allow everything
Anyway, I really don't know why but it works now ! I received email notifications for your replies to the thread so I hope it's not temporarily Thank you lol

You indirectly grant the permissions.
Check like this;
Xiaomi settings/app management/installed apps/gmail/authorizations.
Sorry I'm trying my best but the steps you give me don't match with what I see
Here is what I got in the screenshots below (leading to the same page as the screenshot from one of my previous post)
I got Settings > Apps > Manage Apps > Gmail > App permissions
Ok,it's good, it's Gmail that does that (I don't use Gmail).
Okay, now it's not working anymore, I'm desperate

No screen notification on standby or even screen on?
used you AOD?
Screen on or screen off, no notifications.
Last notifications I received were from about 30 mins ago (screenshot below), phone vibrated, notification showed on wake screen and in the top bar when unlocked.
But if I open the Gmail app, there is an email notifying me your reply at 5:58, for which I didn't receive a push notification...

Check, settings/notifications/lock screen, floating notifications, badges.
Effect of notifications/all but none.
If you use AOD/verify that on used theme that notifications is activated.
Gmail notifications are correctly allowed for lock screen, floating notifications and badges.
Notification is set to animation (Pulse, blue)
Sorry forgot to reply to this part, I not using always-on display
This is so frustrating...

Check:
Xiaomi settings/app management/manage permissions/permissions/apps then permissions.
Ok so this time I got a push notification ! Phone was unlocked, I'll let it locked from now to see if it changes anything next time.
Regarding your reply, I already checked here a few minutes ago while browsing in the settings looking for anything that was disabled while it's shouldn't be... Everything looks good there.

Well, apart from granting Gmail all permissions (post #5) I didn't change anything since I opened this thread. But I now randomly get push notifications... I got one when you posted, but like 50 mins ago I received an email for which I didn't get a notification... This is nonsense, I don't know what to think
