I removed one app 5 times because I could only get to settings during initial setup. I was so angry there was no menu button. Then I heard about the long press
Step by step like a tutorial if you want to.

New Message preview
After receiving a new text message, there's an alert on the lockscreen that reads, "Messages New Message". Anyone else find this practically useless? Is there a way to get that notification to give a preview of the message?
What I've been doing is either tapping on the New Message banner then swiping in the highlighted box below to unlock and go straight to that message. Or I pull down the top panel and tap on the message preview found there. Either works, but seems like extra steps.

okay. I will try it. thanks.
You can create an auto-reject list.
From the Phone App - going into settings (3 dots on the top right) and Settings-> Call -> Call rejection. From there you can set to reject form list and start creating a list of numbers you don't want to hear from.

If you open the messaging app, go to settings, notifications, and at the bottom if you check lockscreen it will show the sender and part of the text instead of just new message. You can also turn on pop up where it shows a pop up message where you can reply to a message without going into the messaging app. Pretty convenient. Hope this helps.

Anyone know of a way to make long pressing the home button on the lock screen turn on flashlight like in the miui rom?
1. long press on the recent apps button while looking at one of your home screens, or long press on the home screen to get your scrren menu then hit "home screen settings" uncheck "my magizine" to get rid of the magazine tab
2. go into camera and hit settings turn off picture stabilization to make the camera much more responsive and get rid of that "please hold still" delay when trying to take pics of moving targets (dogs, kids, etc)
3. until we get root third part apps will NOT save to the external SD card (your camera and some stock apps will, but playlists from 3rd party mp3, back ups from any back up app, 3rd party notepad, 3rd party alarms like smart alarm, etc will not) so be careful that if you need to back something up use dropbox or something like that these third party apps may back up to an emulated storage (still internal storage) so if you factory reset when we actually get root you will still lose everything you thought you saved
4. if someone helped you hit the thanks button, lol
Disable/hide apps you don't use from your app drawer: go to app drawer - long press recents/hit menu button (three vertical dots) - select "Uninstall/Disable Apps"

So I was playing around with the fingerprint scanner and wanted to add more then 3 fingerprints. When I was setting up my thumb, I also swiped my pointer finger. After the set up was complete. I found it let me unlock the phone with both fingers from the one setup. I haven't seen this mentioned yet, so I figured someone out there might find it useful.

Already posted in the fingerprint thread but thought it could be useful here..
What I did was use the 3 allotted different fingerprints and scan my thumb at slightly different angles so I could swipe my thumb horizontally rather than vertically and it works a lot better now.

Thanks!! Just confirmed this worked for me. I was able to use right thumb, left thumb, and index finger on just 1 fingerprint setting.
I am going to copy and paste this info into the thread I made on the Fingerprint Scanner Tips.

Drag the inside circle to the outside circle can unlock screen.
hope u will like it~~

Just download it, open a file explorer, go to it's download location (wherever you downloaded it to) and click on it. Also remember to allow installation of non-market apps in the settings. Another way would to just search for it on the market. Market link - (Free) - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nanoha.MyLockScreen_free&feature=search_result ; (Paid) - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nanoha.MyLockScreen&feature=search_result .
This is pretty smooth,
One thing I thought was odd was that in your setup you have an Ad. While not odd in itself, you need to make money somehow. The ad was in Chinese, or Japanese, or some other symbol language.
I'd probably be more inclined to click an ad I could read, just a heads up.

Nice lock screen app, but the short cut settings are very unstable. Sometimes they work, most times they don't...
Like This . Thank You .
Tested the free version an view minutes and bought the app. Great look screen!
I like it but the use of a lockscreen is destroyed when just a home button exits the lock.
Great job dev!

Hey dev, I have a small glitch. Using the ripple lock and the phone was in sleep mode my alarm went off. I had no way of turning the alarm off. Nothing popped up giving me the option to turn the alarm off. The phone woke up locked but that was it. I was using the stock alarm if that matters.
Thanks.

Is there a way to disable the volume buttons? Right now when the volume buttons are pushed the screen turns on and makes a beep sound
i really love ripplelock, but i have one problem:
if i put my phone in airplanemode at night (to save some battery) and turn off airplanemode at the next morning, usualy the PIN-input-screen pops up. But if i install ripple lock, the PIN-input-screen doesnt pop up, regardless of the chosen double-lockscreen method. only while system security lock is enabled, the PIN-input-screen pops up, but this way i get an double lockscreen.
The only version, which works properly for me without this issue is v2.2, evrey other version above 2.2 has the descriped bug. Thats why i stick with this version and hope this issue will be fixed soon.
(Also I would love to see that the home-button doesnt unlock anymore, while the status-bar is hidden (one of two main reasons, why i use ripple lock instead of the modded system lockscreen, which looks nearly the same except for the visible status-bar and that the lock icon functions only as a slider).)
BTW: I'm on an rooted Desire HD with cm7
Pretty cool app. Slight bugs:
1st time I had a notification written in Chinese or something. Then came up in English after I got through that one. Maybe or maybe not a bug; maybe you could ask the user 1st time setup which language to use.
2nd bug is that I came out of standby and was at the homescreen and then the lockscreen loaded up a second or two later. Maybe it's my midrange phone (Galaxy Ace) causing it to be a bit laggy.
Otherwise pretty awesome app.
I love the look of honeycomb especially the lockscreen. I've been using Ripple Lock for about 3 weeks now. So far so good. Thank you Dev!
Are there settings for the following features?
1. To turn off the message on the home screen that says "swipe up or down to show apps".
2. Turn off the Wallpaper for the Always On display?
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
The swipe message disappears after you use the gesture to both open and close the app drawer.
As far as I can tell, that wallpaper is unchangable.
I already post this in another thread...
The blue text on the lock screen.
You have to double tap on it then tap the next button in the bottom right.
Keep pressing next until it turns into ok.
Once done it wont come back on.
And you can go into the aod settings and change the background and style of the lock screen.
You can definitely change the wallpaper for AOD, in the themes section. I've seen a select few other wallpapers for it, keep in mind the theme store has more paid ones than free.

I have opened and closed the app drawer over and over with this gesture and yet every single time i unlock my phone, i get this message. Are we sure thats the solution? I've even restarted my device and did a restore on it as well and i still get this message. It is absolutely mind boggling that there is no way to actually disable tooltips like this one.
EDIT: Ask and ye shall receive! So, no sooner than i posted this did i look and my phone was downloading an update. After the update this annoying message is GONE! Whats funny is the first thing i did after getting home with the new device this morning was to check for software updates and there wasnt one.
I have 2 S8 Plus phones with mostly the same apps & the settings are set the same. One of them has the home button on the AOD. The other phone, the button icon is missing. You have to kinda find it. They both have the same clock setup & software updates. Where is the setting for the button to appear?

So when you slide right on home line with hints showing, it let's you slide through your recent apps.
How do you do this when you hide the lines aka hints?
Anybody have a clue? I've been trying to Google this and cannot! Find it. All I find is how the dot is gone and blah blah blah.... I want to hide the clues cuz these lines are annoying and I love gesture navigation! Now that I'm used to it... but I cannot swipe the home button to panel through recent apps if I hide them..

You just swipe up left "button" and you go to recent apps. Only there you can swipe left/right thorough recent apps
I have had issues with getting this to work too. I am using the Bixby button - short press for back and long press for recent apps. Also double tap for flashlight. Good option since it doesn't seem to work without the lines on the bottom of the screen.
It sounds like it might only be not working for some phones. I have a Snapdragon S8+ on Verizon. The screen gestures do not work for me.

But with the hints showing you can swipe right on home line and it brings up a quick recent. Which is unavailable if you hide gesture hints
I posted just above saying that the gestures were not working for my phone a month ago. Well they started working. I can't tell you why. Verizon S8+. My phone isn't rooted. Need to fix my info.
Can someone walk me through this? Totally new to Pixel phones. Been using LG for the last 10 years.
I have Nova Launcher installed and it seems to be working properly with no issues.
I'm getting written notifications on my lock screen whenever a YouTube channel I'm subscribed to posts a new video. I don't want that. (This is happening on most of my apps)
In the past with the LG, i'd just get a tiny colored bubble with a number on the app's icon on my home screen. That's what I'm trying to accomplish with the P7P. Is there a way to get the phone to do this?

I've tried that on the lock screen, and it takes me to a page asking me if I want to unsubscribe from notifications from that YouTube channel. Is this correct? I do still want to get a bubble on the app's icon on my home screen letting me know I have unseen content.

Hmm, I don't think so. Have you tried it once you've unlocked the lock screen? Please see screenshot.
Didn't make a difference.
If "notifications “ are turned off, will I still get the little dot on the app icon?
Ok, I may have an idea.
In the notifications settings area....
Pic below, set hide silent notifications from the lock screen. Then long press the notification in the status bar and set them to silent.
They will still show in your status bar and app icon.
Downside to my plan is if you have, for example, text messages set to silent they will no longer show on lock screen if you want that.

Yes, at the bottom of the list of notications, there is an option to have the dot separately.
