Missing/Broken Functions on Rooted Note4 with Xposed installed - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Starting a separate thread for missing/broken functions on Rooted Xposed Note 4 On Stock Touchwiz Kitkat 4.4.4
HELP :
Customised the phone in every possible way except three functions still missing :
a. Lockscreen widgets not available with phone on Pattern Lock, only on Swipe or None. Used to be easily available on my earlier JB Note3. But now Xposed Modules for Lockscreen Widgets or Widgetlocker are not working. Only way I can get them is by installing an S5 Xposed module for Locker Widgets and then Samsung Multiple Widgets Module. But that only gets me going on Swipe Lock, not pattern/Fingerprint/PIN.
b. Unable to change the stock dialer's background color. Earlier in my Note 3 JB had black color when call was dialing which changed to green only once the call connected, in this stock Kitkat ROM the color is green beforehand so that without vibration its impossible to know if the call is connected unless you are listening through earpiece. All 3rd party Dialers are of no use since at the time of actual calling they all take you to stock Dialer.
c. Whenever I try to select any text in any app, soon as I take the selection cursor behind the popped-up keyboard the selection cursor disappears and I CANNOT select any more text below. In the previous JB ROM, I could continue scrolling down and selecting text automatically even behind the Keyboard, but not anymore. Dont know if this is stock behavior or one of the apps/Xposed modules triggered this. Members can guide.
PLEASE HELP.
Anyone can help me with these 3 functions please? Im desperate, can try any paid app or module too.

Anyone??????

Just to update point no.c is resolved. Instead of using stock Gmail App if you use Email App then the problem disappears, and I had issue mainly with my mail app.
Now if only a and b also get resolved, I will have a truly Magical Phone

Quick Update : Used Hell00's Dialer Mod to change the background color to Black theme, so part of the dialer issue resolved. But the background color doesnt change once call connected like it did with my Note3 JB, so only partly resolved.

[Q] Notification Bar Broken (looking for workaround)

Well, I have a weird problem I have never seen before. My notification bar area has lost touchability. I know, this sounds weird. In other terms, I have lost the touch function of the top ~1 cm of the screen.
I have tried wiping everything possible, changing roms, kernels, recoverys; nothing helps. I have officially given up on making the top bar work. Oh and I might note that I am out of warranty and Sprint will not help.
So now, here comes my question: Is there any app that lets me perform a gesture while inside any app to open my notification bar? Something similar to wave launcher but for opening the notification bar.
If you are on CM7, you can use the Tablet Tweaks under Cyanogenmod Settings to move the status bar to the bottom -- then you can swipe it from there.

So part of your screen failed...get it fixed... better than a workaround
Why are you out of warranty? They know you're rooted? You should have a 1-year manufacturer warranty from HTC.
Also, if you use 3rd party launchers such as ADW and LauncherPro, you can change your swype down gesture. For example, you can make a swype down on the homescreen open the notification drawer.

If you've taken it to Sprint & they've refused to fix it, try a different store. Unroot first, of course.
You could always flip the phone to landscape and pull it down from there. I hate auto-rotate, but that's just me.
Also, in slightly older versions of MIUI, the "recent apps" window was part of the notification area. I really liked being able to long-press the home button, then swipe left/right to get to notifications/toggles. It was especially handy in an app where the notification bar is automatically hidden. I believe the last build to include this was 1.4.8, everything since has a separate window for recent apps. If you like MIUI, you could try 1.4.8 or before.

[Q] Would like to customize the phone a little bit, just not sure how

There are a few things that really bug me about the Touchwiz software.
1) The ridiculous color scheme/non-standardization between pages. For instance, the new apk install menu is just horrid to look at, as well as certain pop-up confirmation buttons. Is there any easy way to change these so that they more reflect AOSP?
2) The messaging application and the widget that appears on the lock screen when you have a missed phone call/text message. I was wanting to use Dashclock widget on the homescreen to replicate this purpose, but no matter what, I can't find a way to disable that widget that always appears. Is there a way to remove it?
3) This sorta ties along with #2, but when you use a pattern on the lock screen, you can't use a stand alone widget, Samsung automatically takes over and uses it's own. I know it's possible to use pattern and a widget (I can do it on the GE Rom, and my Nexus 7), is there a way duplicate this process?
4) Is there a way to replace the TW messaging app with an AOSP messaging application?
5) The pull down notification bar, is there any way to make it look more like AOSP?
There are things that I love both about TW and AOSP, and unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a rom (in my opinion) that compliments both of the features that they consist of nicely. I don't have the knowledge (or the time at the moment with school coming up) to try and build my own rom that would enjoy the features that I would want. I was wondering if anyone could help me out with this process. I would be forever grateful.

No notification digits of unanswered calls on green dialer icon - galaxy note3

Hi there everybody.
After upgrade of my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Phone , model SM-N9005 to Lollipop 5.0 I lost notification of unaswered calls (red digits on green dialer icon on main screen). I can notify the only phone symbol on the top of the screen. It's very uncomfortable if I cannot notice unanswered calls. How to fix this problem.
regards Maciek
I will get 'badges' on icons but only if the icons are not in the dock.
Update: That's not correct. I get badges on Samsung's apps like Phone and Messages but no badge will appear on Google's Gmail app.

Do you use any third party launchers?
No I don't use any third party launchers. The only thing I did was upgrade from KK to Lollipop 5.0 OTA (over the air- factory)

You should get nova or another similar. Tw launcher is crap, how can you live with it in 2015.
did you disable or freeze "GlanceViewMK" by any chance?
or removed Notification reading access for it???
I didn't disable this optioin, when I found it , it was disabled, but enable it - doesn't help, no notification of unanswered call on dialer green icon again.
The other anwer for kenny1991 - "You should get nova or another similar. Tw launcher is crap, how can you live with it in 2015. "

Nova (And Apex) are Launchers. Not Dialers. The notification badge is a Launcher feature, not a Dialer feature.
Did you reboot after re-enabling Glanceview?
Yes , I did reboot, didn't help
I've noticed that when somebody calls me , the camera lamp blinks . I found the new lollipop option and I turned it off but why after upgrade this option was on without my agreement? Maybe is something in the system options about these lost digits on dialer icon? I cannot find anything in google.

No Badges at all

Hi,
I'm on the international version of LG G2 (D802) and I'm on the latest stable build of CM12.1 + gapps Stock. I just noticed that I've no badges at all - I mean that little circle in red containing a number showing the no. of notifications for lots of applications e.g. Facebook app (to show missed notifications), Dialer (to show missed calls)..etc. Is there any way to have these back (by tweaking a hidden setting or so) without installing any additional software just to have that simple, yet important thing to come back again? Badges were showing just fine on original stock ROM from LG.
Thanks in advance
so is it disabled on purpose by the developers of Cyanogen for some reason(s)? and the only way to get it back is by installing a new launcher (Nova) and an addon for that launcher (Tesla)?! i.e. we need 2 pieces of software just to have that?!

[Discussion] Poco F2 Pro / Redmi K30 Pro with Android 11 (not eu)

Recently our devices that have not been intervened for modification have received the new version of Android 11 based on MiUI 12.2.1.0 (RJKMIXM) so they have added things such as also removed things and a few bugs, then I will leave a list of what that to my appreciation I managed to discover with this update and it would be great if they also share more things.
Additions and improvements:
- iOS style bar available for gestures (with option to remove in settings) without the need for the long-awaited Poco Launcher 3.0.
- Improved animations such as multitasking and when opening apps.
- Fixed pixelated screen on lock screen.
- New emojis. (LOL)
- From Poco's Launcher if you slide down the right side you lower the control center, to the left you lower the notification center, it is no longer necessary to do it from the status bar and clearly you have to have the new control center active and from Home do the gestures.
- By having the device horizontally, if you slide the new control center, now you can see it in a better way, that is, on the left side you will see the customizable quick accesses and the right side the fixed ones with wifi and data.
- Sound assistant in the sound and vibration section
- Beauty mode for video calls
Things they removed and certain bugs:
- I cannot access the last app from Home by pressing the multitasking button twice if you have it active
- They removed the notification priorities (high, normal, unimportant, etc.)
- They removed the button for the pop-up windows from multitasking as well as the one from the split screen (I think it was that) that was in the upper left corner
- Even if you have accelerated animations (x0.5), the new animations (such as multitasking and when entering apps) will still be at x1
- In certain sections they removed some vibrations
- In some notifications (it only happened to me on WhatsApp and Google messaging) when you get a single notification, it is misconfigured
- (bug) If you have dark mode, when accessing the section with the shutdown, restart, etc. buttons, the letters will be the only ones that will be white, the icons will be black (f for those with dark backgrounds)
- (bug) 50% brightness down is lower than it was before
PD: Sorry for my bad English

I know, I actually did the post there and it appeared here in some strange way.
Everything on the list is with the phone factory reset after updating.
how about floating windows? i can't do that as in previous V12.0.4.0.
ok. any of you that have received the update from updater app have force close from updater app after apply the update? After clearing data of that app, i got no more FC on the app but now i am unable to see changelog, its says "you don't have permission to access the update log", and trying to download last update manually says "Can’t download update, wait a minute or two"... it's really annoying!
I have received 12.2.1.0 (RJKMIXM) update and the rom is ok but the biggest issue i have is with gestures control. Now the the "go on home screen" and the "open recents" don't work at all, neither with poco launcher or nova launcher. It's a big bug for me and now i must use the buttons on the navigation bar.

I have similar issue. It works if default launcher is set to poco launcher. But when it's set to nova launcher home gesture swipe up doesn't work outside the launcher.

Does Someone know how to disable bobble notifications? Can't find it in the settings!
Hi, I am having problems with the new version 12.2.1. When I try to open a youtube, instagram, navigator link from another app it says that no app can open the content. In the previous version 12.0.3 there was no problem

try this app! -> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.conena.navigation.gesture.control&hl=en_US&gl=US
this app will give you back gestures on all app screens.
-> needs less power and works for me! You can hide the app overlay if you don’t like it!.
(freeware - no ads!)
Edit:
maybe some of the XIAOMI bugs are the same as present at Google A11. See here: https://piunikaweb.com/2020/12/08/android-11-update-bugs-issues-problems-tracker/
If anyone here would compare this list, I would be delighted!
Hi there. I got the new update with all the bugs that are already mentioned by other members in previous posts. The one that is bothering me the most and gives me a hard time is the messed up notifications. What I mean is that when I have more than one notifications, either from the same app (grouped ones) or from different apps, the senders' names and text gets confused with other apps' notification text or sender's name. I tried a factory reset, but unfortunately it didn't solve the bug. The action buttons are also misaligned and sometimes not fully visible, but that's already mentioned by other members. Does anyone have the same bug? Can you propose a workaround at least until a fix is released? Thank you!!

I am using this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.le.miui10gestures and it's perfect. Problem solved.
because my phone was more and more unusable, i now use my Sam Note 9 for the next time.
Rollback and new installation on POCO F2 fails because verification problems during the process.
On the Note 9 with LineageOS 17 everything is alright. There i use "Full Screen gestures" (paid version)
I don't quite understand. Did they remove floating windows feature in the new update?
No. But the way to do differs a little bit.
On: -> developer option " freeform window" must be activated. Then a special tile will give " flying window". Start the app and press the tile...
Off: tap on flying app navbar and swipe up the app window.

Eventually I managed to disable bubble notifications for telegram. When you open the chat bubble, in the bottom left corner there is a "Manage" button. If you tap on that it brings you to a setting page where you can disable the toggle for bubble notifications.
Hello everyone, does it happen to you too that sometimes in the main screen they disappear (become invisible) and you have to restart the phone to solve? You know how I can do it. Help me!!

Hi,
I have updated my poco f2 pro to miui 12.2.6.0 but the Notification issue is not fixed (mixing all the notification, WhatsApp notifications are not grouped like in miui 11). But this update feels much smoother operations (miui 12.2.5.0 was little bit slower than miui 12.0.4.0) in the phone.
