Android 4.3 notification issue - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. It seems with the new OTA that the hide notification option in Android settings doesn't stick on some apps. And the weirdest thing is that when I turn on my Bluemont, Tune in radio pro starts running and I get a notification for that too. I can't find an option or setting for this anyone else have a similar experience?

Don't you have a thread on this already?

I don't have one. Is there one? Maybe there are some answers in there. I did a Google search and didn't get anything but I'll look again.

I am sure its a silly question.

What do I need to enable to stop the 4.2 update constantly asking me to upgrade now or later? Usually you can just have the option to skip it no?
I know my phone won't ask unless I search under software updates.
This one pops up on the constant and happy with 4.1.2. Not feeling the terrible reviews on 4.2 so just want to skip it for now or till a more stable one comes out.
appreciate any help.

[INFO] Stop OTA update nagging
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
The suggestions in the reply above are the best but they all require a rooted Nexus. Until you root your tablet try on Google Services Framework in Settings - Apps - All column:
1. Disable Notifications - fewer update reminders.
2. Clear Data - forgets an update is ready but may just re-download one.
3. Disable GSF - stops reminders but breaks Google Play Store and others.
I use number 3 as JB 4.1.2 works perfectly.
I have got similar prob but I am on 4.2. hoping this will work.

You can long press the notification and go to app info and uncheck the show notification box as well.

Thanks for the replies guys. Really don't understand why its setup this way. Wish it was like my S3.
Not really wanting to root this yet, but if the above don't work, may have too.

I think that is the solution for unrooted tablets!

News and Weather Genie not stock ?

My Brother just picked up the Nexus 7 with 4G. He's an iPhone guy switching over slowly.
Anyways, he asked me for some good Widgets. I said an Android classic is the "News and Weather" genie widget. He said that's not on this tablet. I told him to look under apps, for News and Weather, and sane under the Widget tab. He said nope, not there.
Did Google remove that classic Widget ?

Anyone ?
I don't own the Nexus 7 myself. Just a Galaxy Nexus, and a Note 2 running CM10.1 and the "News and Weather" genie widget is standard.
Is it not installed on the Nexus 7 ?

Nope not installed on the nexus 7. I read somewhere on here Google does not support it any more or something like that?
I've tried to side load the apk file to my n7 many times with no success.
However I am running clean ROM inheritance 3.2 and it comes with the ROM.
I am new to all this stuff. This is what I don't understand, the app is listed as transperent. It does not show up in titanium backup and I can't find it with root explorer.
I have no idea what is going on with this app.
I hope someone can clear this up

Bars on Gallery App won't disappear

When I first got the phone, I could make the bars disappear on the gallery app by just tapping and now I can't make them go away for the life of me. Any help? Thanks
Here is an example below

Anyone?
For me, just not touching the screen for a couple of seconds makes them disappear.
I've got the same problem

Sometimes I have the same problem, and sometimes they disappear from just waiting...
It's really annoying...

No one knows a fix? Even if i dont touch it the bar will not disappear

Maybe try updating the firmware? Maybe it's a bug they fixed.
I'm running the XXUAMDM version and i think that this is the latest firmware which is available.
Maybe i will try to flash a stock rom from the development section.

Well I'm using XXUAMDN, which I'd expect is newer going alphabetically.
My galaxy s4 is not able no find a newer version than my current one. I'm from germany so maybe I'll have to wait

Mine couldn't either, even though it was on XXUAMDC. I assume it's because it gets the update through your network provider, and you'll only get the newest one they'd let you get, especially if it's locked to their network like mine was.
I probably found out what was causing that bug. My gallery is working fine again.
Please test the following:
Enable all sounds on your galaxy s4 and get into the Gallery.
now select an folder with your pictures and long press on a picture. in my case the phone had read out loud that i've selected a picture.
Then i removed an app called Notify-Me and some other apps which could cause the problem and now the gallery works again :good:
I'm sorry for my english but I hope you can understand it.

There I found my solution.
Hope it works for you !
Actually my gallery was also doing talkback at some point. I had just frozen a bunch of bloat apps, so I thought that was the thing causing it.. So I unfroze them again..

My phone is a completely stock US version and I have the gallery problem. You can never view a picture fullscreen no matter what you do.
Do you have an app installed which is enabled in accessibility? Disable it and try again in landscape mode
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
Wow, it's Lightflow that's causing it! Well, maybe I should say Samsung's gallery sucks and can't coexist with lightflow. I've been using an app from the market called Gallery ICS which works fine with lightflow enabled. So odd. I don't get what would cause this.
What is lightflow?

Yeah pretty annoying that no notification app works with the stock gallery. I hope this will be fixed soon :banghead:

Thanks for the info! I've just disabled the Tasker accessibility service and the problem went away. Looks like the bug occurs when you have at least one active accessibility service.

No Notification for Most Apps

Had anyone had an issue where the N4 just won't give notifications for most apps? The notifications work for SMS and Gmail buy that's about it...
It doesn't matter of I'm on cellular data out Wi-Fi, and am running CM 10.1.0 Stable. Anyone know a solution or a reason for this?
Greatly appreciated

No haven't heard of that or know of a solution.
But as a member of 3 yrs you ought to know that questions go in the Q&A section. Please post your threads there next time.

Have you restored the app data using any apps? If so clear the app data for those apps (like facebook,whatsapp,etc) and relogin.

As soon as I have less than 500MiB storage avaliable, my n4 begins to act funky, like dropping many notifications. Maybe that's what's happening to you?

Don't use TitaniumBackup to restore app data for apps that requires push notifications. I'd bet that if you clear the app data for all the apps that are suppose to give you notifications, your problem will be solved.
Going forward, try to only restore the apps themselves. Go ahead to restore data for stuff like games. But for apps like Facebook or instant messaging apps, just make the effort to enter your login details.

Anyone else having this problem, Apps disappearing?

I've just noticed today that some apps are being randomly deleted. One being my xda app, tried to launch it from the home screen and it said that it wasn't installed anymore. Same with a few other apps.
Just wanted to see if anyone else noticed this on their Nexus 7 or if it might just be mine.
