Why aren't notifications displaying on edge screen?

[ofosho305]

Whenever I get a message/text my Note Edge makes a sounds, however the edge screen (nor the main screen for that matter) light up and show anything. Is there a setting I am missing? I really just want the edge to light up and show me what the notification was for (text/email/etc) and the first few lines of the message.

Do you have the wallet flip cover closed? If so texts don't show up for some reason when it's closed but does when it's open

I actually wish I didn't get notifications on the edge panel ever lol

Sent from my Samsung GALAXY Note Edge on AT&T

When the screen is off, nothing shows up (flip open or closed), but a notification noise is made. That's not helpful to me when my phone is on my desk. I want to look down and see what just came in and some info about it without having to turn the screen on. Any suggestions?

I got it. I am coming from a Motorola phone that had ActiveDisplay. I didn't realize android doesn't have built in functionality to turn the screen on. I'll look for a 3rd party app that hopefully does this well on the Edge.

See Video how to set it
