[Q] home screen icon pictures keeps disapearning - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Lately, I have some of the icons vanishing like contacts, phone, facebook etc. if I restart the phone they come back but obviously that is not a solution. Also, when i turn my phone on in the morning and unlock the screen real quick when screen comes on, gives me a touchwiz home has stopped alert. but if I wait a minute to unlock, it does not happen. Also, recently, I can not access my multi window pop up view by swiping down from the top corners either?? Any idea what is going on with the random apps icons vanishing randomly(not all the time). appreciate if anyone can help. Thanks.

try to reflash
Thanks! but how exactly do i reflash? i just learned how to do all of this maybe 2 days ago so i'm still really new to everything.
Did you install any lock-screen apps? I noticed that when I installed those, sometimes my notification bar would get stuck.
On the other hand, you can reflash by reinstalling Cyanogens rom.

Hi,
Open the messaging app.
Go to settings,notification settings,and untick preview message.
It's nothing to do with that, the lockscreen displays a big ugly grey bar stating you've got a new message or a missed call whenever you get one. It looks crap and I want to disable it too. I started my own thread a few weeks ago but got no response apart from replies like above which aren't the answer. Another one told me to turn notifications off, but although that stops the grey block on the lockscreen, it stops absolutely any notification of new messages, etc so isn't ideal really. There'll be a way to disable it with root access, but you could always install a different lockscreen to prevent it if you wanted.
Nothing under System Settings -> My device -> Lock screen?
- Multiple widgets
- Lock screen widgets
Also while on the lock screen, you can drag down and edit the widgets, try doing that while the notification thing is up?
Doesn't work unfortunately, it just overrides whatever widget you have on the lockscreen.
Does anyone know, short of using a different lockscreen?

Lock screen showing camera

So my issue is that the lock screen constantly shows camera as if it is a background. It also won't let me add any lock screen widgets.
I did a hard reset, happened again. Took it in, they did a hard reset.happened again. They traded my phone and again happening.
The only thing I did was add my gmail accounts.no apps downloaded and no other settings messed with.
Anyone have this issue? Picture attached to see what it's doing.
Scroll to the right instead of the left. Camera is on a page on the lockscreen. Scrolling to the left will show you ability to add other widgets to the lockscreen

Micromax Yureka screen loack and walpeper change problem solution finally

Got rid of the issue easily finally by Blocking my Notifications access
Hi,
This has worked for me since yesterday, earlier my phone use to get locked every ten seconds or so and I was not at all able to use it.
I was having a gut feeling that the issue of locking and changing wallpaper is face most of the times when some Message is about to arrive or some notification from some application is poping up on screen.
For this yesterday what i did is as follows:
Settings > Notifications > Pop-up notifications are disabled
When device is locked
Don't show notifications at all
App notifications
Messaging
blocked
Notification access
Theme chooser - It can be allowed as ticked only,no other app
Filter notifications
To do this , when a notification pops up,
say mostly it is for low battery which will lock the screen almost after few seconds.
Press and hold the notification popup message and click on the icon to filter it then it will show under Filter notifications tab.
Select above things in Settings menu and Im sure the problem might get solved for you also.
Only drawback being you cannot see the notification on Locked screen but the blinking green and white light tells about new notifications.
All d best. shared this because since yesterday my phone did not got locked even a single time.I was also visiting this page for solution, happy to provide one for everyone if it works.
Main thing is to block the popup notifications , as soon as these are disabled. Screen wil not get locked.changes might reflect after a phone restart.
Have a good day.

Second screen tied to notification drawer

For years I have hidden the notification drawer on the top of the screen, most of the info there is duplicated in my widgets, and I just don't like the clutter. However with the V20, hiding the notification drawer also turns off my second screen...which then gets rid of one of the marquee features of this phone.
I've tried on multiple launchers (Nova and Next), and the same result. I've tried permanently hiding it, and using gestures to toggle on and off.
Does anybody have any suggestions? Any rooted users know if this is a problem after root? This one little problem annoys me to no end.
Thanks a lot.
I'm on a non-rooted Verizon V20.
There is a setting that might help that allows it to be active when the display is in fullscreen mode. It's meant for videos so it might not have full functionality.
I'm rooted and I get the same thing. I use Nova and the "toggle notification bar" shuts the second screen off along with the notification bar. I don't know why they're tied together like that, it's annoying...
The second screen's "show time while content is shown" option will leave it on with the notification bar toggled off, but it doesn't do anything, it just shows time and notifications up there. You can't scroll it to get to anything.
