One of the better features introduced in Android Marshmallow was lock screen notifications. These would light up the display for a few seconds and show you the most recent notifications directly on the lock screen — you don’t even have to touch the phone. For whatever reason, these are not enabled by default on the Honor 6X, but there is a way to turn them on. Here’s how:
- Open the Settings app
- Scroll down and select Screen lock & passwords
- Turn OFF “Use password lock only” (don’t worry, you’ll still need to input a password and/or fingerprint to unlock the device)
- Turn ON “Notifications turn on screen” (this will wake your phone for a brief second when notifications are received)
- Turn ON “Show detailed notification info” to see the content of notifications on the lockscreen
