Lollipop not showing notifications on lock screen

[Gunslinger1]

After upgrading to Lollipop, notifications does not show on the lock screen at all. I use pin-code as security, notifications is set to "Show all notification content". Something I'm missing here?

Sony, would it be possible to get feedback regarding this, any feedback would do at this point. Need to know what to do with my current Phone, can't have it like this

The Mailwise workaround worked beautifully. Install Mailwise, remove default mail client from administrators. 

Now would be a good time for Mailwise to increase price (free for now :p).

Mailwise is really not a good workaround here. The whole purpose of corporate email account, security and remote wipe is there for a reason. Routing all your emails trough some 3rd party sounds completely crazy and most likely would not be allowed by any security consicous company.

Hi,

For me this is a massive bug in the current software version which has to be fixed immediately. I have to use ActiveSync on my phone so I cannot change any settings. Since the update I haven't been able to see any notifications (not even on the status bar) about imcoming calls or messages which is an absolut NoGo since this is working on any other Android device.

Moreover even the Walkman widget is not available on the lock screen. So Sony: you have to fix this.

Thanks!

HI,

I am not able to see any notification on status bar on Notification light after I updated my OS to Android 5.

I tried all three options under settings-> Notification but no luck.

Settings > sound & notifications > app notification > make sure the app is selected, also, show all notification content when device is locked.

Hi,

This is not working when you use your companies ActiveSync which forces you to have a Pin-locked lock screen. In this case no information, beside the date/time, is shown on the lockscreen.

Again: For me this is a massive bug because I'm not able to see any information without entering the PIN, i can't even see if there was a phone call or I received a message. This as to be fixed asap.

Mine was the same way on my Note 3. I just went into settings/sounds and notifications and clicked show all content while locked under the noitification area. Not sure if this is the same for other phones.

This settings are already active. I cannot give permissions to show notifications to the lock screen, so no notifications on lock screen at the moment.

The weirdest thing for me is that Sony locked out their own Walkman widget from the lock screen as well.

I have the same problem. As said before, annoying to have to unlock phone to see if you got new messages etc. I thought the point with notification was to not have to.
