I can have a brand new Axon 7 tomorrow, and want to know if the notification bell is gone.
To those who know, does it work like any other phone now? if I double tap on the locked screen does it wake to show my notifications like any other phone?

yes.
You can re-enable the bell if you'd like. Just go to settings>Notifications>Show on the lock screen> Wallpaper preferred. You can select Notification preferred to remove the bell.
The bell is not gone.
Even with 'Notifications Preferred', the bell remains. It's still in the upper right hand corner, but your notifications show on the lock screen.
Not if you have the EU version...
xd why you all dont like this bell? I like it
If i only look on the clock in the train, then i dont want that everyone could see my whatsapp msg etc.^^

That's why it should be optional. For those who like it, can keep it, and those who don't can get rid of it.

I dont know if this is the right place to put this so move the thread willingly.
I was wondering if there is any way to get the Trackball Light notifications and the Trackball wake mod working in froyo. I know the source hasnt been released but maybe it is still possible... maybe
Patience my young grasshopper
Paul from Modaco says that he'll get right on it as soon as the source is released. He himself wants it quite badly (follow him on his Twitter if you want to know ASAP when it's released).

Then how do you enable them? We're you able to enable them? They don't work on my phone. Its back to the old white pulse every 5 seconds for everything.
hmm i have "Light" checked in google voice,ebuddy, and Gmail doesnt have an option in their app but i have "Pulse notification lights" enabled in the default menu.
Im guessing its up the app developer to select the color notification light.
Yep, really missing trackball wake.
As for the color notifications, they just seem to work here out of the box...
I dont think you need to open a new thread for this topic. Everyone waiting for it, cant you learn how to wait? Dont just ask for something, learn how to understand something. At least understand the situation, source is not release yet. So be patient!
DL screenmode from the app market and set it to screen lock off. Trackball wake up should work. Just found out about this yesterday lol

nice! just have to make sure you remember to turn the screen off when you're not using it...
I think trackball is much more useful. I got so used to it by now that its really annoying to use the unlock button at the top. Also its annoying that the Email light and the SMS light are both white....
Sitting by for further development i guess haha
Since HandcentSMS & ChompSMS no longer work - I've reverted back to 'SMS Popup' and the stock messaging app.
SMS Popup has 'LED colour' in the notification settings - so you can set to red, just like CM...

Umm ...
I bought LockBot Pro for Froyo for switching on with trackball, and it works great
(as long as you install or move it to internal memory)
The ChompSMS beta works great on Froyo too, and it makes the LED flash Green for me.

why? phone will sleep in 1 min anyway.. with or without screenlock..
never really understood who needs that locking feature.. doesnt the screen only respond to the fingers?
im using app called No lock. it removes that sliding locking AND enables trackballwake on froyo.. at least worked for me..

Handcent already releeased 3.0 that works with froyo. Been using it with no problems for a day now.
Most lock screen apps will allow trackball wake. Lock Bot works as well
There is an app on the market called no lock that let's you wake up your phone with trackball.
Hancent and ChompSMS both work now, and allow custom colors for your trackball alerts.
Google HAS enabeld the color trackball notif for the nexus one. See link below for use:
developer.android.com/intl/fr/reference/android/app/Notification. html
Now anny app can use those notifications, no need to be root. You can now just start having some fun!!!
I've noticed some of my trackballs notifications are different colors now but has anyone found a way to speed up the blinking?
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...

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.

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

Just got my GS5! I am really liking the phone so far, I just have one question for you all.
Every time I reboot the phone I get a message saying check the back cover. Does this mean my cover is not on correctly or does it show this message every time you boot whether it is secure or not?
Also, How can I be for sure that the back cover is secure, other than pressing on it, is there any way to be sure? Does the phone have sensors on the cover that detect whether or not it is on all the way?
I have the ATT version of the S5 by the way.
-Nathan
Haha )
No mate this a default notification to remember you to verify the back cover.
Other way to verify is to try to see if is a wather resistant I'm jocking
With a single tap the animated notification will be closed. Beside I don't know if this notification can be disabled. Perhaps on rooted devices... i don't know.

Oh ok. I was under the impression that there was some sort of sensor that detects how tight of a fit the cover has. lol. Samsung has all these sensors in their phones so who knows.

Yes, on rooted devices. Deleting or renaming the popui(something like that) apk in system app or priv-app can't remember which, will get rid of it. Also is an xposed module for it.
A friend of mine is having issues with his samsung galaxy s4, there is a clock stuck in the upper right hand corner of the screen. Not the one that is suppose to be there... he's not sure what he installed on his phone, to be able to uninstall it, and I've gone thru the phone... without any luck... I'm at a loss, other than deleting everything he's got on it one by one just to see what it was... next step... so if anyone has any ideas... that would be great...
Thanks!!!

Are you sure it's not the set alarm icon?
Check the alarms - if any exist, try disabling them to see if the icon disappears.
If it is the set alarm icon, I don't think you can remove it...

Nope.. it looks like the reg "time, battery, and signal" like it should be in the right hand corner, but when you pull down from the top, there is the orig. one that is suppose to be there. This one that's there is masking over the original ... goes away when in certain screens... so not sure where this came from, or how to "rid it"
But thank you for that bit of info!!!
Hmmmm... I would back up everything that I want to keep and that I know doesn't have to do with a clock then wipe your device and start over

Is there a way to have the date/time (and maybe battery %) on the 2nd screen when the screen is *on* ? I can only see if as an option when it's off.
I also tried the music controls, but while it shows Spotify the controls don't work for me.
And dangit, I still can't put a Phone shortcut (not an app shortcut) on the favorites (a Folder Organizer shortcut in my case pointing to a folder of apps).

While the display is on, time, date, and battery percent is kinda useless on the second screen. I don't see the options. While the main display is off, its a good idea, and that's why LG made it available.
Spotify works great for me with the main screen off and on.
You cannot move the info to the second screen unless you're viewing something like media or playing some games. To put a shortcut up on the second screen you'll need to leave one shortcut blank, and then create a shortcut of your choice to the home screen and drag it up to the second screen and drop it. You cannot put entire folders on the second screen though.

I have a few apps that run in full screen (like Kindle*) where I'd like to be able to put up the date/time. Not sure why LG *wouldn't* give us the option to have it there if we wanted it. I mean, to me, the signature thing is just silly, but I realize that some people may like it.
Will try a reboot shortly to see if Spotify kicks in.
I know I'm only 1/2 a day into the phone, but so far the 2nd screen isn't doing what I imagined it would. I'l also pretty disappointed in how notifications work on it. Would like to have the entire bar be the notification w/summary & just stay there until I dismiss it.
Likewise, when the phone is off and I get a notification, I just see an icon. There a way to get a summary or something without turning the phone on, or should I go back to Dynamic Notifications (the app) ?
While not the only factor, the 2nd screen was the main reason I picked the LG over the Pixel XL.
*Kindle - I haven't checked in a while to see if there is a way to disable full screen. Need to check settings for it.

I agree. I would rather take the date and time than the signature.
LG should set a limit with the 2nd screen display. My 2nd display gives me a short summary of my notification with screen on or off for a second or two.
Your spotify issue isn't related to the phone its the latest version that has a crapload of bugs I suggest downgrading to 6.2 to fix it. It isn't the phone, try pandora or google music and you'll find they work fine.
Follow these steps to downgrade:
- uninstall Spotify
- make sure auto update in playstore is disabled or it'll automatically update you back to 6.3
- enable the ability to install apps outside of the playstore (I suggest disabling this setting once you've installed 6.2)
- go to http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/spotify-ltd/spotify/spotify-6-2-0-1028-release/
- download the apk for ARM architecture and install it

Read my post above you.. Go to second screen options and select "more" and then toggle the slider. This allows for the time and date to go to the second screen when in full screen.

Wow, don't think I would have discovered this trick myself, THANK YOU - this one was VERY important to me !!!
(You can get an entire folder if you cheat - I use Folder Organizer & make a shortcut to a "Home" group that I put a Shortcut to using your method. This home group has 20 shortcuts, including 5 "sub-folders" and 15 favorite apps. Subfolders are Tools, Internet, Multimedia, Games & Apps. Some of those folders have sub-folders as well. Then you can use this same "Home" shortcut in other places as well.)

I was thinking perhaps in some Hidden Menu settings via dialer,IDK?
It looks like it does it on it's own? When I look at it he didn't play with any setting and it did that

Yeah,that's what I'm trying to figure out,perhaps it's model-specific?
One wouldn't think so,but,ya never know.
The only other thing I can think of is he's got an app installed that enables this,if it's not a hidden menu item.
I'm gonna look around in there,see if anything jumps out,I'll post again if I find something..................
@Tidbits
I figured out what's going on:
If you make your "signature" long enough,it will scroll as shown in the video,but,it only makes one revolution & stops.
At least the functionality seems to exist for an endless screen roll,perhaps someone with the capability will develop an app to expand on this.
Has anybody tried playing games like Traffic rider and notice that the 2nd screen doesnt work? I mean if i tap on it, it just shows the time any notification icon. No quick settings or previous app option?
