Actually I had to check the preview box as well. Thanks.

Thanks! That was bugging me as well. It just said " New Message" everytime

Could you point out how to get to that screen as I'm not seeing it. Thanks

There is no way to get it to display just the name of the person messaging you without also previewing the message is there?

[Q] "Recommended Shortcuts" with headset plugged in

Does anyone know how to get rid of this (in the notification dropdown)? I assume we'll need to wait for someone to create a mod for it but just checking to make sure I'm not missing a setting/option somewhere.
Thanks
I found no way. .. Can't wait for Slim Bean or AOKP to come on s4 so much crap.... It's depressing. ..

thanks....I figured we'd have to wait.

Try disabling the notification setting for the page buddy service. (Go to Application manager, find the page buddy service, and uncheck notification).

Thanks! There was an icon missing in mine after I ran debloater.bat. OCD

Expose earphone settings pagebuddyservice
I was able to expose the hidden menu in settings using Nova Launcher. I created shortcut->Activity->Settings->PageBuddy
Now I can enable/disable all or just earphones, dock or roaming on my AT&T S4.

Menu/home soft buttoms

Hi,
I was curious if someone could tell me what the left and right arrows are for on either side of the menu/home/back buttons (see attached pic). I press them and nothing happens, and I can't find a description anywhere of what they do. Thanks

I've been wondering the same thing for over a week, don't worry!

I wish those arrows showed up on mine, guess Sprint didn't get that option. Unless it's something you are supposed to enable in settings.

Weird lock screen notification

Not sure what this is but that rectangle with an eye keeps popping up for just a sec and only on my lock screen. If I have the notification drawer pulled down it won't show up. Its creeping me out. Like someone is taking spy shots or something. Anyone know what this is?

Man it's the "Smart Screen" option in Display settings! :laugh:
It's also present everywhere anytime not also on lockscreen! It will run each X seconds to check if you are looking at the screen or not!
I have never had that option turned on. It only comes on when in the lock screen. Glad u got a hearty laugh out of it. I bow to your superior intellect. ?

[Q] Looking for a simple app search widget

I installed Action Launcher and it has an amazing quick search app widget that is built in.
I would like to use another launcher, but can't find another quick search like this. Using Google Search takes me to a new window and performs more searches than I need.
Does anyone know of a widget that can do just app searches that I can place on my launcher and do 1 second searches?

Thanks. I installed it, and while it is REALLY fast, it still takes u to a separate screen for the searches. I am looking for a dropdown search that stays in the widget on the home screen.
oh.maybe this one can do the job:

Double tap the double box next to the circle!
Hit it enough and it goes away!

It is just above fingertips sensor and to the right! Switches between double and single box depending on what is currently selected

I know how to turn it off if active. I want to disable the feature entirely. It activates and stupid times and I want the feature gone.
