[Q] ADW Launcher Question - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

With the Sense UI the message icon showed a number in a red little circle when I had messages waiting.
With the new ADW launcher I just got, the message icon doesn't show anything.
I'd only know if I have a message by looking at the notification bar.
And while on the subject of message notification, is there a way to keep the notification LED blinking until the message is checked? (Rather than turning off after a minute)
Thanks again.

Search the Market for an app called ADW Notifier. I use it. I believe it's what you're looking for. Adds the little circle notification and has lots of options.
It'll look like this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

BaselsAntiFlooder V1.0 Released!

The MonkeyUpdates Team felt kinda sorry for the people getting a flood of SMS messages from BaselsSMS'er, so we basically made a Anti SMS flooding software.
When BaselsAntiFlooder is activated it will take full control of your SMS messages. With other words it will be your SMS inbox instead of the built in Windows text reader. When you've recieved a new message you will get a notification (as usual!) saying that "You've got a new SMS".
To read SMS messages you have to click on the desired message in the console and it will show up in a window.
If you're getting a bunch of flood SMS, BaselsAntiFlooder will save one copy of the SMS and remove the rest or with other words will block their interception.
In the past we've got complains about BaselsReply and BaselsSMS'er not having a minimize button. You don't have to worry about BaselsAntiFlooder! It got a minimize button and a System Tray icon. When you minimize BaselsAntiFlooder, a system tray icon will show up. To bring BaselsAntiFlooder back, just double tab with your pen on the icon.

(Pic from the 'Post your ScreenShots' thread)
Why do apps added to the homescreen not display text properly?
In the pic above the 'WiFi Buddy' icon is losing the letter 'y' at the end.
The 'Blapk Market' icon is losing all letters after 'Ma'.
My display does the same thing. In the programs page the icons display correctly. When added to a home page, it seems that all text after about 9 letters disappears.
Is there a solution please?
it's because the name of the icon or program is too long for the icon. It only supports a certain width. if the name is wider than the icon, it does that.
If it didn't do that, the icons would overlap and it would look bloody awful.
highlight the icon using the trackball and you'll see the name start scrolling.

My trackball doesn't seem to do anything on a home screen. I can't highlight anything........
yeah, my bad, just saw that myself. I am sure it used to do that on a magic though....although i only playued with one of those for a short time, so i could be wrong.
but yeah, you would have thought they'd scroll

[Q] wifi,bt,gps etc controls in notification bar?

Hi,
I'm currently using Switchpro to toggle my controls and I absolutely love it but is there an app out there which does the same but puts the controls in the notification bar?
Something similar like they've done on the samsung galaxy s but with more options:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Thx
I'm not sure about an App to add this functionality?
But if you can get used to the Miui interface, it has that functionality built in.
I'm using the J-Style MIUI ROM and it's great.
from the notification bar i can change:
APN -ON/OFF
WiFi -ON/OFF
Rotation -ON/OFF
Backlight -OFF/LOW/HIGH/AUTO
Normal/Silent ring
Vibration -ON/OFF
Bluetooth -ON/OFF
GPS -ON/OFF
I don't know if you can use part of the MIUI ROM to get this to work on Sense/Non-Sense
completely overlooked this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=838013
I've posted my question there
MIUI looks great but I'm not looking to change ROM's right now (might give MIUI a try in the future though!)
cheers

PS there is an app called "Quick Settings" which you can launch from notification bar, but it's an app so you don't see the controls immediatly when pulling down the notification bar

Information Message in Notification bar

Is anyone out there have this "Information Message" in the notification bar? This has been in my notification bar before accidentally updating to lollipop. I can't understand what's in the information message 'cause it's mostly in Chinese. Don't want to just press OK to make it go away. Even pressing clear at the bottom of the notification bar won't make it go away. TIA to anyone who can help

Long press and go to info to see what's giving the message (may be spoofing a system message).
Also try safe mode and see if it persists.

How to make notifications not show mini versions?, see photos

Anyone knows how to make the top notification (ex: spotify) always show in full? I have to drag it down to see the extra buttons, which I didn't have to do on my other phone a lg g6 on oreo also. See attached images for how it shows and when i drag it down a little you see there are more options. Why is it always showing the smaller version of a notification by default? Even other apps like system Do not disturb do this, have to drag down or click the notification to see the button to "turn off"
Edit: it's called expanded notification... I still can't seem to find how to make this topmost notification auto expanded. Its quite dumb that the expanded one takes a few pixels more, why bother shrinking it, samsung??

Temp fix... use another notifications app like this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.treydev.pns&hl=en_US
It lets you set whether to auto expand the first or all notifications... yay.
It's also lighter on memory than others. About 70 MB use according to dev options running services.
