Have you tried clearing the cache?

But i don't think this is a problem. I think it's a new 4.4.2 feature that cannot be disabled. Maybe I didn't describe my problem right. When someone calls me and I don't pick up you can see the missed call in a big notification rectangle in the lock screen. This means that someone can just take your phone and see who called you even if you don't want to. I try to find any setting to disable this but it looks like it's a widget in the lock screen.

If you can't disable it in the settings and the developer didn't include an option for that there is no way to hide it.

I guess you are right but this is crazy not being able to hide this. We should have control over our privacy.

That is one of many reasons why I am not using TouchWiz.

You think if I use another launcher it will not do that?
Edit : just tried another launcher and it still does the same thing.

I think what you have on your lockscreen is a lockcreen widget. Have you tried disabling Lockscreen widgets?
Maybe if it is a standalone widget it can be removed from the screen. Try and report back.

I have the widgets disabled. It's something to do with the system.

No I haven't. I don't think the third party lockscreens are as safe as the original ones.

Add multiple widgets to lock screen?

How do I do it? All I can figure out is to add one per screen and swipe left or right to view the others. Any way to get multiple widgets on one screen?

Request: Transparent Weather Widget

I know there was one floating around for the E4GT, but I'm guessing it's not compatible with the S4.
Would anyone with experience modifying apps and/or theming be willing to teach me how to make the Accuweather Widget transparent?

I don't think you can but today I used the 1weather app and after you add the widget you can customize the Opacity making it very transparent at 0%.

This should work for you, dont think it matters about carriers for it, its not a flashable zip so will have to copy it to /system/app

OK this one is kind of easy doesn't need any XML edits, all I did was edit the images
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 2
I'm watching this with great interest. I too want a transparent weather widget and I wonder why it's not an option? when you select a folder on the home screen the widget DOES go transparent. See the attached screenshot. So it seems that there should be somewhere within the XML to turn this on all the time?
You guys still want a transparent weather widget lol? Just cause I love u guys
Gimme a few seconds and i'll upload it
Here you go guys, Finally lol!
Doeasnt matter what ROM or SYstemUI your on, This is Universal, so it will work anywhere, store & save it. MOre to come!!!!!!

[email protected] dpi

Hi guys
changed the dpi on my n5100 to 160 by accident and got a whole new version of interface.
Is it remnants from another device?
I like it a lot but worried about compatibility with apps. Anyone tried it?
You've got Nova launcher or Apex on there haven't you?

yeah but look at the bottom bar. Very similar to stock android but Samsung modded. Also notifications screen has changed to the same as my Note2. most thingswork apart from the dialer.
Touchwiz will not load at 160dpi is the reasn i 'pushed' Apex from the Play store.
Nah, that's what's supposed to happen, it's gone "Full Tablet mode" lol.
If you clear the data on the launcher, it should sort itself out and display in a tablet form.
Like this... screenshot to follow...
Update: screenshot added.

You only need to do it on the app itself, if clearing doesn't work, install another launcher then, remove and install the one you originally installed. But make sure you have at least one other Launcher than the default TouchWiz one or you could find yourself in a whole world of headache.
And no, the file that gets edited to change the dpi can only be done once rooted.
Which android version you use? 4.1.2 or 4.2.2?

Disable screen-on for Stock Messaging app notification

I like the stock app for its pop-over notification, but I hate the screen-on. Is there a way to turn just that piece off?
I am rooted, so I don't know if maybe there is a db value I can flip or a method call I can short-circuit...

Someone on the mj6 leak said if you go to the quick toggle setup and reset it you'll get it back. But didn't work for me.

Yup I tried the same logical step, but to no avail.. SMH at Samsung! I did download the Data Enabler Widget which does the same thing, but still disappointed as to why they would remove an important toggle.. At least give us an option to restore it!
What about the power toggles app? Does that not work?

I personally have never found a reason to want to toggle data on and off so I never even noticed it was missing. That being said, would you be able to use Tasker to watch for another quick toggle (such as S Beam or Blocking Mode) to activate/deactivate and then toggle data accordingly? At least that would give you a solution more closely related to what you are used to. Just a thought.
