Personalisation - Windows 8 General

I cant personalise my Lockscreen and Account picture etc. Help please

it takes some getting used to but its pretty easy. Mouse over the top right hand corner. The Charms bar will appear and then click settings. There is then an option called "change pc settings". Your lockscreen and other personalization features will be there. As for your account pic click your name at the top right hand corner and you'll see an option for account picture.
Hope that helps!

Clock in title bar?

Anybody know how to get a clock in the top left corner of the screen, in the title bar, instead of the battery indicator?
I had been able to do it using the Advanced Configuration tool before updating my X1 with the Sony Ericson Update Service. Now that way doesnt seem to work. Anybody know how to do it?
In Time settings you can choose it, in the third tab.

[Q] Icons missing from Galaxy S5!

I'm frustrated!
I want to edit the order of my "Quick Settings" in the Notification bar, but there is no icon (the pencil icon on the right side up) where it should be!
Also, when I press the "Options" button (the three squares) in the Settings page, most option are missing!
The only one that appears is 'List view' (to a total of 2 views - 'Grid view' and 'List view'), whereas the third view, the 'Edit quick settings' and the 'Help' options are missing!
I've got pictures to prove my point and help you see my problem but, unfortuately I can't post them here.
What is wrong? Is it because of the edition of the phone?

Depending on the device model and also the firmware version, there are some variation of the Settings menu. So I cannot realize what is your Settings menu structure.
You can open the S Finder and enter 'notification panel' to search.

Same thing happens. I sadly think it is because of the firmware, as you say, and there is nothing I can do about it.
Thanks for your reply, though!

What does that mean? Did you find this menu using S Finder?
If you cannot find this settings, here is another way:
Install Shortcut Master app, open Menu > Search > enter 'notificationpanelsetting' to search. Finally tap on the search result to open this settings.

Yes and, again, the notification panel had no pencil on the uppermost right corner. :/

I had high hopes for this (on my search on the Net, I found no solution like this) but, alas, the search came back with 0 results. Searched both 'notificationpanelsetting' and 'notificationpanelsettings', and 0 results for 'notificationpanel' as well!
edit:
Oooh! That's why I thought I recognised the name of the app creator - it was you! Nice job, btw!
Sorry, I have searched on my Note 3, not S5.
However the function may be missing because of different firmwares.
You can bypass this problem by flashing another firmware.

I have no idea what this sentence means!
So, I guess, I'll just have to get used to it...
Thank you, anyway!

floating pop-ups

hi. anyone found out how to disable floating pop-ups? i see the option to disable it, but then you'd also disable the vibrate/sound.
is there a method to disable only the floating pop-up?
What are you referring to?

no. when a text comes in, it pops up at the top of the screen. thats the thing i want to get rid off, but cant seem to unless you turn off sound/vibrate as well.
Did you try settings>apps> then select the app that you want to disable floating popup > scroll all the way down to the bottom and select apps that can appear on top and then switch this option off.
I did this for esexplorer which kept showing floating add icons

Split screen option missing

Probably doing something dumb but can't find an obvious answer.
When I press the icon above the app in the Recents I only get the option to 'Open in pop-up view' no option to open in split screen.

Also the camera shutter sounds option is missing ?
Mine has the option for split screen. Have you tried other apps?
Tried all the usual suspects only get option to open in pop up window. Using force all apps setting in MultiStar makes no difference.
press the task manager and the icon of the app u can split there.. its the new way of One UI.... all samsung has split screen

Thanks, that is exactly what I have done. The option is missing.
Press the button towards the bottom and it will asked you what apps to open in multi window...you pick the app and drag to the portion of the screen you want
It's because you are using the task changer in good lock. For some reason they removed the option when you change from the default task switcher.

I'm hoping that it's on the to do list as GoodLock has only just been upgraded for P.
That's been bugging me for days.

Lucky you cause mines appears very differently. Heard a rumour it's down to your carrier, I'm with EE.
I'd upload a screen shot but I keep getting ad request. Pretty new to the forum etc so not sure if it has to be a particular file format or size.

Mine has not got carrier bloat it's generic UK.
I don't have the option for shutter sound either.
If using Good Lock like me then go to task manager window. Hold the icon of the app you want to split screen and you should get the screen as attached. Hopefully that works for you.

Thanks, that only gives you a pop up not a split. I've reported the missing feature to Samsung so fingers crossed it will be fixed soon.

Apps that can be split screened will show an option at the bottom or top of screen. Try splitting an app like chrome with YouTube. Different apps give different options. Some can't be split screened.

Understand.
In this case every app does not give the option.
For example:
You can use bxActions to map split screen to your bixby button.
Don't do it with the app that sits on top of the list. Go to another app, so that the app you want to split is shown second.
Now tap and hold this second app (the icon on the top or the whole app thumbnail, as both work) and it will give you the option to split.
Strange.
My split screen is working and I also have the option for shutter sound.
