[Q]Hangout Notification - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I first switched to the stock LG G2 KK rom when using hangout and I had my screen on a little black box with a message preview would come down form the top of a screen and I could click on it to reply or it would fade away after a few seconds.
My question is I no longer have that anymore and I can figure out why, and would like to get it back it was a really nice feature. Anyone have any info regarding this?

ok... is there any way to change/customize incoming call screen?
I have the same problem which i noticed today (i have the phone for 3 days). I am not sure i had it from the begining so it might be from an app...
Even so, it is not normal.
I think mine is like that... But I'm running rootbox. But I think it was like that stock, and my old Atrix was like that on CM10
Mine is not rooted...
I've seen a lot of pictures on the internet whit this kind of incoming call but it doesn't seem right...why allowing a fullscreen picture if it's half blocked when receiving the call?!?

its probably a new feature designed by some bright young engineer at Google !
try one of those full screen caller id apps, if you don't mind running another service in the background.
this helped on my Moto G (4.3).

Nothing weird. That's normal on kitkat. If you want full pic, try purity rom. However I like the stock looks cause the icons are hard to see when there is full pic as background. That's just me though.

[Q] T-Mobile Variant Lockscreen Text

I'm sure there isn't a way, but I figured asking wouldn't hurt. Has anyone found a way to remove the annoying text and lock icon on the lockscreen? I noticed that the AT&T version doesn't have it all, and the Verizon version has just the lock icon. I just find the "Swipe in any direction to unlock" text obnoxious lol. I could live with the lock icon, it's just the text mostly. Trivial I know lol if anyone has noticed a setting I've missed let me know. Thank you

Glad I'm not the only one who hated that. I hope someone figures it out.

I also am wondering if there is a way to get rid of this. It is quite annoying me since it is like right there in the middle of the screen
(T-Mo) G2 lockscreen is a bit of a mess, yes. not to mention that some of the swiping effects inverse the color randomly (and appear black) for no reason. to use a custom lockscreen wouldn't be a good idea either because then you lose the double tap to power it off from the lockscreen. i presume we would need an xposed module mod for all this.

SMS preview on edge panel Textra users

For those of us who use Textra as our SMS app, please go into the settings menu> support> contact us and request that they make an edge panel with the same functionality as the floating notification. I have requested this feature and they are open to it but are unsure if there are enough Edge owners using Textra. It would be the only SMS app to show the actual text as opposed to just the notification icon.
+1
Added request.
Done
Not a textra user but looked them up on Google play and requested the feature too. Told if was addedi would their app.
Done sent them a request, they even replied back to asking me for a screen shot showing where exactly I would like the preview to come. So sent them the screen shot and they have acknowledged with "Thanks" ... now lets wait and watch
Not trying to troll but both the stock and go show the notification on the side
In fact i don't get any verbage at the top anymore. Every program has transferred to the side

I jump between textra and evolvesms. Last week textra had an overlay on top of the main screen. I immediately uninstalled it because thats what the edge is for. If they are open to suggestions I will request that feature as well now that I know.

I like having a "dark" or "black" skin for messaging. Stock can't do that to my knowledge.
I tried GoSMS back on my note 2 but seemed like a lot of bloat. Textra was simple, straight to the point, and customized just enough for my liking.
Maybe I'll give GoSMS a try again?
Just submitted a request for this as well. :good:
Agreed and done.
Guys
I think our request has been done, there was a update to Textra yesterday on my phone, updated through playstore and now i can see the message text on my Edge screen when a new message comes

You can see it for just a second and that's it? right? same as GoSMS? no function inside the edge screen or anything unique?

I see the complete message when it comes if its big message the text moves line after line and if I click on it that takes me to the message in textra.
Yes the message text does not stay on the screen for a long time but its comes as soon as a message is received and shows the text line after line and then goes ...
I had also requested Textra team to add unread notification count on their icon to show up which I think would be kool to see on the edge screen

Got it... out of thanks for the day... but thank you for replying... So, basically the same as GoSMS... If they ever do the unread notification icon to show on the Edge Screen, that will definitely make me move to Textra... I was looking at the sceenshots from Textra from Google Play... and it looks almost identical to GoSMS... lol... (the developers are copying each other, lol)
My Bad guys ..
I have tested the textra messaging app now on Nova Launcher & on Toch Wiz .
On both the message preview is still coming as a floating window on the main screen and not on the edge screen at all ...
But the unread notification count is now showing up correctly on the edge dock on textra icon

I made good on my promise to switch once they abopted edge notifications. I also read you have to turn off the floating notification. I didnt have to for mine to work but I did anyways. Works great, just wish there was a call button like on the stock application on the same screen. Its there but a couple clicks away.

Mine wouldn't work without turning off floating notifications.
Does it work if the phone is locked for you guys? Only my express me panel lights up. No message preview.

Yeah mine does. But it shows as soon as it comes in and only gives you like 5 seconds, if that. But that's the same as the stock app. I'm under the impression the factory settings are the main road block to getting the edge panel to behave the way we want. Maybe the guys who have rooted could let us know if this is the case. I gotta play straight on this phone so i won't be rooting anytime soon. I'm hoping maybe a modified nova launcher might get released for the edge. I've used nova on all my Galaxy's and am sure they could get this edge panel sorted out.

[Q] Notification icons missing with lollipop update

The notification icons in the upper left hand of the screen used to appear on the lock screen to show me if I had emails or texts. Now they don't show up since I downloaded the lollipop update. Anyone know how to get them back?
Thanks.

As I noticed that is little different than it was before. Check if you did not disable it in the settings. See the screenshot.
That seems to show the pop ups on the lock screen but not just the little icons. Maybe I'm missing something else...

[Question] graphical glitch? galaxy s5 verizon 900v

Hi- this screen never appeared before and now it does -.- tried wiping factory resetting and this image wont go away from my homescreen. Idk what happened please help looked everywhere of how to remove this but no one has had this issue. This never appeared on stock until after i unlocked my bootloader and installed cm. Tried to use the repair assistant and its still there.
edit: idk why it does not show in my screenshots. here are some photos taken from my iphone... hard to show but there is a white line that is in the background of my homescreen. Shows an sms icon slightly transparent. Annoying **** to look at when I take pics on snapchat. As you can in google playstore and the snapchat photo a SMS icon appears behind the mic in play store and under the switch to facecam icon in snapchat. Does anyone know a fix??
I still have no idea what you are talking about.

lol. ok before on my screen it will be normal fine no graphical errors no visual glitches. pictures wont show it for some reason but if you had my phone in my hand it would show up as SMS icon at the top of my screen like right below the navi bar. Shows up in camera and on my snapchat. Never happened till now. Idk if my screen got messed up or if its the constant switching of roms etc that gave me that glitch. its like a white line that separates the navibar and the rest of the screen at the bottom shows a menu bar on the left corner and some icons. its very transparent under the homescreen display like if the stock rom overlapped
like it shows a small phone screen is under the home screen. in the background- get me?
It's screen burn in. It happens with amoled screens if they are left on a static image too long. You can try some burn in fix tools in the play store. That's why you don't see it in your screen shots it's a hardware problem.
