S5 Missed calls on lockscreen - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

on the galaxy s5 I get a missed call and it appears on my lockscreen , however clicking or swiping it doesn't do a thing. I am running apex launcher but I also tested this on my nephews device which is all stock rooter , results are the same , is there a way to click it and have it open up the dialer on call logs or something I am missing ?

mine, when i click on the missed call at the lockscreen (enter passcode) then it will bring me to the call logs screen.

Hmm that's odd I just have it set to swipe to unlock

I think this is how Android works, it's for security reasons.

I dont understand the lockscreen on this phone

Why when a message is displayed on my lockscreen, clicking it creates a box below that i then have to swipe on to unlock the phone in the messages app?
What's the point of creating that faded box? why not just open the app when i click on the text message?
I agree it's very annoying...
To prevent opening in your pocket...

This is happening even with no lock on the screen - just swipe to unlock? I don't know because I have a pattern lock and assumed it was just for security but if you keep your phone unlocked and it's still happening then I agree, it's stupid. No lockscreen widgets when using any kind of security is also stupid in my opinion.

I only have swipe to unlock and it happens on it..
Seriously a 'feature' I can do without..
I think it would be nice if you could swipe the message notification on the lock screen to open that message. Similar to the S3.

I agree. Now that option only appears if you have your lockscreen timeout set for a few minutes and you manually lock the screen. When you unlock within the timeout period it will show your lockscreen widgets and you can swipe them to go right into that app.
Someone at Samsung over thought this one.

I agree. I liked when they had the puzzle piece, and you swiped to "complete" the puzzle, and that would take you to the message. I think that was back on the S2?
I just drag notification bar down then click the message.

you press the notification then swipe in that box and it will take you the message
Guys, all you have to do is swipe down the box to open the message or view the call log (if it was a missed call).

Don't blame Samsung for this, it's an Android 4.2 "feature".

Thank you captain obvious :silly:
Of course that's "all you have to do". But my point is that it's silly that it creates that box in the first place after you click the message. It looks like they tried to implement something then quit halfway through.

You're not understanding... That transparent box does not show if you do it right. When I get a text message, a small message box will appear, I swipe it down to the bottom of the screen and it takes me directly to the messaging app.
EDIT: It's more of a tap then pull, I should make a video...

yes i can make that happen too.. i still dont get the box though.. why is it there in the first place.. what are they trying to do here?
Once the box is there, you can swipe left or right for other widgets if you have multi widgets in settings setup

After unlocking how do I get it to go immediately to my home screen?

After unlocking my phone with my password, it goes immediately to my phone keypad. How do I change it to go immediately to my home screen instead? I've searched through my settings multiple times and in the user guide and have searched online and I can't find anything. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks in advance!!
Are you using the stock launcher?

Sorry to sound dumb, but ... I have no clue. How can I find out?
When swiping the lockscreen do it in the center, if you swipe close to the left it will trigger the phone shortcut and it will launch the phone app

how to remove peeking notification?

how to remove headsup or peeking notifications ? on the LG G6 THANKS.
I don't have any peeking notifications unless you're talking about the phone call popup that shows when you're using the phone
When I get a text or any message the notification comes down on the screen I just want to remove that feature of it showing up on the screen while I'm doing something

Go to settings in the Messaging app. Then "Notification". Disable popup.

Okay no what about other apps? I use Hangouts fpr my texting and it doesn't​ have this option. Any ideas?
The same question for me. I have peeking with whatsapp also, even if whatsapp has this option and by default has always been disabled. I don't like peek notifications I would like to understand how to remove them by phone options, not by app.

I managed to find that option. It's available in Facebook, or Facebook Messenger or in Facebook Messenger "Lite" too, but it's not available in Whatsapp that is my main interest
Can you check whatsapp?

This adb command works for sure
adb shell settings put global heads_up_notifications_enabled 0
I'm on AT&T and don't get these. Any way to activate them?
three applications can do it without root :

This was driving me nuts too, for Google Hangouts. Tried "Do No Disturb". Didn't work. Very frustrating when using the phone full screen in landscape mode.

Incoming calls displayed on second screen

When I'm using my phone, a call comes in it takes up the entire screen and I can't do anything but accept or reject the call. My wife's v20 alerts her to a call on the second screen and doesn't interfere with whatever she is doing. How can i me mine do that as well?
Did u turn on the second screen?

go to networks, calls, more, show voice calls while in app. change to floating or 2nd screen only.
this is just a default option for call display

what device, what rom ?
I don't have that menu in my settings either but you can find if if you open the dialer and go to settings from there.
I'm on WETA's rom.

Sorry I should of mentioned the rom it's a VS995 running NotSoStock.
I found the second screen option under dialer. It was already set to second screen, I set it to something else and then back to second screen but it still doesn't seem to be using the second screen. Any ideas?
Thank you for the replies!

It's possible that the Verizon caller ID app is running interference on this. Try disabling it (unless you pay for this service).

Im having the same issue with H990DS with stock rom & mk2000 kernel.
Have you managed to fix this?
I ran stock most of the time on my V20 and all of my calls would pop up on the second screen like you describe your wife's phone doing. I always assumed it was enabled with second screen or by default
I know that you already posted that you don't have this option but I thought I'd post some screenshots of what it looks like on mine (H990DS). I put the screenshots in the order that they come in. Mostly in case this helps someone else out with this issue.
