[Q] Facebook app icon bubble notification?? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So this notification is really pissing me of. Why you ask? Because the usual notifications also pop up in the drag down notifications area. Once i click the notification there it doesn't disappear from the icon. The bubble one remains and to remove it I have to open the app through the app icon on my desktop. Do you guys know how to disable this feature? I only want to use android built in notifications. Im running stock rom, stock kernel and no root.
Thank you.

You can remove the bubble by dragging it to the bottom of the screen to the X that appears. You can also disable the bubble notifications by opening Messenger Settings > Notifications and uncheck "Chat heads".

Maybe I'm a little slow but I cant seem to drag the bubble. All I drag is the facebook icon. Also messenger settings are grayed out in the facebook app

This is what it looks like.

Go to settings > accounts > Sync apps with Facebook > User Name > Remove account
Let me know if it worked

Removed it, nothing happened unfortunately Bubble still appears on icon. What did that account do? Sync apps with facebook? I had disabled the sync for that one some time ago. Didn't really understand what it did.

Lock Screen Text

I found this app:

}
Unfortunately it doesn't work on Sense UI:
Even if you ignore the warning and put your text in, nothing will ever show up on the lock screen.
Is there another app that does something similar and works with Sense UI?
I have Antivirus (free) installed from the Market. The programme includes a lock-screen text.

Just installed it.
I see a "Lost Message" but nowhere to put custom text on the DESIRE lock screen.
Just to clarify, do you have additional text on your DESIRE lock screen? (i.e. the leftmost picture in my signature)
First, I have to admit that I have enabled an unlock pattern (p. 195 English user manual). In Antivirus, push menu > settings > > Remote > FindeR and Remote > Lost Message: You can insert the text you wish (like your Arthur Dent details). The info is then visible on the unlock pattern screen, right between your leftmost screen and the home screen.
I too would like something like this, would be even better if could also show calendar events/appointments for the coming week

Ahhh, no wonder!
I don't use the unlock pattern so I never saw it.
I'm looking for a way to put text (my name etc) on the initial screen, when you turn on the phone (like the Contact Owner app shows).
Does anyone know of a way?

[Q] Status bar disappeared

Hello,
Yesterday, i cant exactly remember what i was doing, but my status bar is gone.
I checked settings -> rom control -> notification bar and nothing to do there.
It just gone.
How do i enable it back?
By the way, im runing PACman HD2 with Marc Kernel.
Thanks!
You need to tell us what disabled it, try to remember what you did.
Not to sound patronising here, but you have tried simply rebooting, right? I had a similar issue once when I was web browsing and suddenly the browser FCed and I couldn't get the status bar back. After a quick reboot, everything was back to normal.
Hold power to bring up the menu, tap "expanded desktop"

do you mean the Status Bar along the top, or the Notification Drawer which is the messages in the drop down screen?
check both of these.
using ADW launcher i can assign a swipe action (swipe up for me) to hide the status bar, maybe you have something similar?
I think change dpi in option may helps you fixing this issue

For mycase is little bit different with you, my weather can't show on lock screen.
But google around, and find a way, enable location, and then del all city line under weather app
then tap again the weather widget select the detected location, and i find the weather can show on lockscreen.
I wish this method can solve yours too.

Add a weather widget to the homescreen, click on it to see if it's the right location.
Actually no need to add a weather widget on lockscreen, enable it under
setting > lock screen > show information > weather (tick it) it will enable weather widget on your lockscreen.
But the widget never updates on its on.
Also must have GPS on and hit refresh for it to update to accurate temperature.

Disable test message preview

Is there any way to turn off the preview of text message content on home screen and notification pull down? I don't want to see the content until i choose to open it? I would still like be notified that received a message. I just want to get rid of the preview.
I have the default messaging app installed and when I follow: Messaging App > Menu > Settings > Notifications, the only options are Block, Silent, and Priority. There are no additional options and I don't see anything related to the preview.
This would be a setting in the texting app itself, not a system setting. You can disable the "preview" in the texting app and just get the notification only.

How to hide msg content of all apps on the notification bar
Hi
I want to hide all previews for any notification I get on on my notification bar, be it text, email or whatsapp etc. I just want to see which apps have a new notification and how many new notifications. Many of the apps on the LG G6 do not have a 'PREVIEW' setting so I can't disable that within the apps themselves.
Thank you

Have you tried "partially" swiping to expose the settings for the notification?

Still doesn't help
Thanks skyfox99 for the response. Unfortunately, that doesn't help because that controls the notifications in its entirety. So changing the settings that way controls if I get the notification and what sorts of notification settings I get it with. I just want to hide the content that comes with each notification. So that it just says for e.g.. Whatsapp 3 new msgs from xyz
If anyone can help with this, it would be greatly appreciated!

How do i get rid of these orange circles on some of my game launcher icons?

I am assuming these are to say i have notifications for these games but i do not have any unread notifications and these orange circles have been next to my games for about a month or more now, is there a way to get rid of them, or do they mean something else?
I have done a pic below of it:

This was driving me mad today!
To get rid of them, open game launcher, click on the menu (three lines) at the top left. Click on game notifications and then long press them to delete them. For some reason game launcher keeps a copy of any game notifications you get stored at this location and that annoying orange circle won't go away until you manually clear them
I literally spent an hour going through android settings to turn all global notification badges off before figuring this out.
