    I've noticed that on my Nokia 7 Plus recently too.

    I don't suppose you have found a solution AC? :)

    Only started looking since I seen your post and found this.

    Settings -> Display -> Advanced -> Ambient Display -> New Notifications

    Mine was set to periodically. I've changed it to Once so hopefully that sorts it.

    Unfortunately, my new notifications is a toggle, not a menu.
    It can only be set to on or off :(

    what software version are you folks on?
    Still stuck on the Jan security update running the 00WW_2_47A_SP01 build. Am wondering if that's the same for anyone else?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,517 ✭✭✭marcbrophy


    Yeah, I'm on the same build!
    Pretty poor show from an Android One device if I'm honest :(

    I have the same ambient notification settings as you. I'd guess AlmightyCushion has a different version to us.
    I got mine from Amazon.co.uk from some 3rd part seller. Pretty sure they sold me a Taiwanese version. From the looks of the thread, you got yours from eglobal? figure we have the same hardware version if so and if that's the case, we appear to be on a really slow update cycle.

    I have the global dual sim version, TA-1119 but the build is WW which means worldwide and the cycles should be close enough in most regions.
    I'm pretty sure AC has a 7plus, not the 8.1 which is why their menu is different :)

    What I mean is that I think all 8.1 users are on the same software build right now :(

    Yeah I have a Nokia 7 Plus, not an 8.1. I seen marcbrophy's post and I noticed the same thing on my phone. The 8.1 must not have the same option which is a bit shít. My 7 Plus is on the February security update. It's possible it's included in that for all phones and once the 8.1 gets the February security update, the 8.1 will get that option.

    I'd say the news about the 7.1 sending info to some server in China has put the brakes on software updates. I'd say they want to be 100% sure that "bug" doesn't repeat.

    Oh yeah!
    Forgot about that :)

    Just a heads up - I just got the V2.590 update there. Installing now.

    Mee too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,517 ✭✭✭marcbrophy


    Anyone going to try the dev preview of Android Q?

    I might put it on and see what it has to offer :)

    The steel coloured one is £280 an Amazon so works out slightly cheaper. Still seems like good value from Argos.

    Got Android 10 official pushed through to the phone this morning!

    Very fast, fair play to Nokia!
    A day before it's officially announced by Google :D
