At first it worked then for some reason it just stopped.
Samsung s9 edge lighting not working when screen is off.
For me it i was using google messanging as default to get web access and edge lighting worked when phone screen was on but didn t work when the screen was off.
This is the answer.
The edge lighting never shows when the screen is off which defeats half the purpose.
If you re using anything other than the standard samsung apps messanging mail etc edge lighting may not work.
Looking on google it seems a number of people have the same issue with the s9 s9 s8 s8.
And the best part is you dont need to have the annoying popups for example on whatsapp activated.
I found the solution for the edge lighting not working and it works 100.
S9 edge lighting not working when screen is off.
Also when i pick my phone up to turn on the screen after a notification it still doesn t show.
Try turning off the keep screen turned off feature.
Tested on s8 and s9.
I also have a problem with edge lighting not working.
First make sure to have a samsung account then also make sure to check the galaxy app store to see if there are any updates for the devices.
S9 edge lighting not working.
Galaxy s9 screen becomes dark and showing purple hue.
There was a small pinkish dot that emerged on the bottom left corner of the screen and has grown to a purplish very dark.
I still get the notification sound when the sreen is off but no edge lighting shows.
Everything is set up minimum transparency maximum width 10 apps selected notifications and popups allowed etc and zippo nothing on always on screen or lock screen with always on switched off.
I used to have the fix lighting for all apps and it worked fine but now after restoring my phone the lighting notifications only work when the screen is off and not when the screen is on.
Being honest samsung s edge lighting has never worked properly because even though you can configure each app to a different color.
I have been playing around with my note 9 settings for a couple of days now and i still can t seem to get the edge lighting to work properly when the screen is off locked even though the always on display is on.
