Notification bar hides when unlocked - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I'm stumped, I'm using SlimBean 2.9 and random this problemly started occuring. Whenever I unlock my phone, the notification drawer goes away and it won't come back, I've spent a lot of time looking through settings and changing things and nothing has helped. I didn't change anything when this initially happened.
The notification drawer appears when I turn the phone screen on but then it's gone when I unlock the phone.

Check that you hadn't hidden your bar in launcher settings inadvertently.

Checked and installed 3 different launchers, reset all the settings and the problem persists. By the way, I think maybe the correct name is "status bar"". It's the bar on the top that shows notifications and time and such;
So I'm guessing it's the rom, really want to try avoid reinstalling the rom if possible......It's SlimBean from SlimRom

[Q] Message Preview on Lock Screen

Hello,
I have not found this question about the sensation but apologies if I have missed it.
I am just wondering if there is a way of disabling the message preview on the lock screen but leaving it so it DOES still show on the status bar. I like the fact that you can read a message 'in app' as it scrolls across the status bar but don't like the idea of the message popping up and staying on the screen if you leave my phone sat on a desk!

messages>settings>notifications>untick notification preview
this way will also toggle the status bar preview
Thank you for the reply but...
As I mentioned, I still like the status bar notification preview but don't want the lock screen preview. It's my understanding that your suggestion turns off both?
It will turn off both... I think its not possible with HTC lockscreen (atm) but you can use an additional Lockscreen like Widgetlocker.
I thought that may be the case, I know it can be done on galaxy sII.
Thank you though.
settings-privacy- then untick it

Many thanks, played about with all the settings and can't seem to find anything.

I was looking for this too since it was available in Gingerbread (sense 3.0) but i think it's not available in sense 3.6! This is what i did: I unticked the option in privacy settings and then i flashed shnizlon's AOSP theme and chose to install ONLY aosp status bar with toggles! Now i have sense with AOSP staus bar ( which i prefer ) and messages are shown on the status bar but not in HTC lockscreen! You should know that when you flash this mod it automatically replaces the Sense settings with the aosp one so you must UNTICK the option in privacy settings before you flash the mod OR change the same option in messages settings!

Navigation Ring/Bar In Pacman Rom

Hi, I recently put pacman ROM on my phone; but I can't seem to get the navigation bar/ring to work. I have nav bar set to 100% in the hybrid->interface setting, but it still won't appear. I've gone through nearly all the settings and have fiddled around with them. Am i doing something wrong?
Do you happen to have pie/expanded desktop enabled?

[Q] Menu bar background in 4.4.4 KitKat issue

Not sure how to best describe this, but take a look at this screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/GMXfeMf.png
Shown is the background on my menu bar, with "less" of an opaque overlay from my main wallpaper. This issue started up today, and I am not sure what is causing it.
I am on 4.4.4 KitKat, with Xposed Framework, and menu tweaks via GravityBox disabled.
what launcher are you using?

Nova. Sorry that I forgot to mention that.
By menu bar, do you mean navigation bar? And less opaque, meaning more transparent?

Took the words out of my mouth. That's exactly what's going on, via my screenshot.
I don't see any navigation bar options in Nova Launcher, so I am unsure how it would be affecting this. Nova has had no recent updates that I can recall, and the issue was not occurring 48 hours ago.
Nova has been updated twice this week. The 2nd one was a bug fix.
Its not down to settings but the launcher needs to support the transparency of the navbar for KitKat. I remember it being added to nova last year. So yeah - try a different launcher first and see if the issue goes away. If it does, contact Kevin.

Thank you for the reply.
I switched back to stock Google GEL launcher, and the issue remains. This is when I am switching over to the Google Now home page, you can even more clearly see the menu buttons with a different transparency: http://i.imgur.com/GsRlAV2.png
Looked into the settings of app Lux, there is an option of Advanced -> Miscellaneous -> Use alternative overlay. Enabling this fixed the issue.
I guess some new feature of Lux is not working well with the menu bar.

[Discussion] CM 12 on LG V10, G4 got CM12

Right now, I have a note 5 and seriously considering buying the LG V10 after seeing the promo of the 200 GB SD card.
I am not a developer myself, but do you foresee the V10 getting cm12 since the G4 is getting it. Specs are pretty close (except the second screen of course). I like the option to go on stock android once in a while without breaking the budget with 2 or 3 phones.

One can only hope. The biggest hurdle is going to be the second screen. If they can find a way to either disable or find a way utilize the screen that would be awesome too

yeah, i am debating getting the v10 from the note 5, not crazy about the pen. only if tmobile has the nexus 6.
Dang, I can't screenshot this as the second screen doesn't appear on the screenshot, but When I swipe up from the status bar while on the home screen it moves the status bar to the second display.
I can see CM 12 or any ROM go this route and I like it! I'll see if i can take a picture with another device.

I am on Nova. I can see CM 12 be like so.
Nova did this for me as well once I chose to hide the status bar. I would love to have my status bar up there permanently.
Doesn't work for me either, using nova.

What version of the v10 are you using? I tried nova and his my status bar but unable to Reigate still. Mostly just curious at this point.
Ok I think I got this. Seems to be repeatable. First off T-Mobile V10, unlocked, rooted, all xposed modules disabled for testing purposes. Hide status bar in nova launcher, the go to phone settings > Display > Home touch buttons > hide home touch buttons > select nova launcher. Your second display will go blank when you are at the launcher screen. No shortcuts, no sig, nothing, tap on it, it should show your status bar for a second or two. When you open an app it'll revert to showing whatever pages you have active.
Really hope CM can utilize the second screen! unused hardware just taking up space on my phone doesn't sound attractive

Looks so beautiful up there... that notification bar. Shed a tear. Hopefully this can happen permanently

Same here man. Just got the V10 coming from the Note 5. I liked the Note 5 but didn't love it because there is no hope at all for any CM. Looks like we can get a CM once things pick up.

Ah, ok. This works on anything that hides the home buttons. Just tested with Smart Launcher and it works as well. Also in Play Books the status bar will move to the second screen when tapped. Stays on for a second or two and then fades out.
So, I got CM12 to compile and put me into a boot loop!
Step one done.
Step two: Free my schedule so I can start working on CM12 for the V10.
If any dev has started a Git repo for anything V10 CM12 related, shoot me a message so I could get in on it.

Bootloop? You got past the splash screen?

After sleep deprived splashing things together and going through freezing on the splash screen, it got to the splash screen then rebooted itself multiple times.
I consider that a positive incremental step in the wrong direction.
Most of my work is just mirroring the h811 cyanogenmod work and adjusting all relevant settings to the h901.
It is probably not the way to go, but I'm a little crunched on time between work and work.

I get to the splash and then thrown into fastboot mode and stuck there. H901 kernel source is posted, I think that's gonna be the difference. The devices are so similar. I wish I knew more about kernel stuff

Notifications won't clear from status bar?

Hi Everyone,
Since the middle of last week I have a number of notifications stuck on the status bar. No matter what I do they won't go away and overlay any new ones making them almost impossible to read. Also the time on the status bar is always 11.09.
When I swipe down none of the apps showing are displayed, so I can't clear them that way. There are 5 apps showing, an alarm, a email alert and 3 game alerts. When I go into any app the bar clears and the time is correct, but as soon as the home screen reloads all the notifications come back.
I've rebooted the phone but they just come back afterwards.
It's vanilla Mix 3, not rooted, nothing new installed running the latest updates.
I really don't want to factory reset and some of the apps take a while to set back up!!!
Anyone have an idea on how the clear this??
Thanks.
Could try some of the options here. https://m.wikihow.com/Clear-Message-Notifications-on-Android
Also could try clearing data on your launcher app.
Some launchers also have a reload built into the launcher settings
