Hide lockscreen code dial - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way of hiding the code dial on the lockscreen? I just downloaded NiLS and the notifications just get stacked on top of the code dial. Can you hide it so that you need to slide for it to come up or similar like an iPhone?

Bigger font for incoming sms preview?

Anyone know whether we can change the font for the preview of incoming SMS?
Look for software called ZoomSMS. It was invented for Eten devices but works well on HTC phones as well.
ZoomSms don't preview automatically...
Of course it does.
i have got a copy and tried...but there is no option to preview.
it will show an icon on the screen and you will have to tap on it
to open the preview of the SMS.
and do u happen to know..how to get rid of the icon and its system
tray shortcut?
thanks..
Look in the phone settings (when you tap on antenna icon, go settings). Check all the tabs there.
thank i manage to hide the tray but still no option to preview Sms
upon receiving. Still need to tap on the mail icon to read the Sms.

Notifications in Lockscreen

Aside from Dashclock, any other way to get access to notifications?
I'd prefer to have a swipe down gesture ala iOS access to notifications.
Huh? You just swipe down from the top and your notifications are there.
What is this iOS you speak of?

That only works if your lock method is "Slide". If you have any form of password/pattern, then the notification shade is blocked as a security feature.
Speaking of which, if the OP wants that functionality, then either they need to set security to "slide", or if they still want slide notification AND password lock, then it kind of defeats the point...
Besides, dashclock doesn't really show much until you slide downwards to display the full list anyway so it's already sort of along the right lines!
May want to give this a spin; the option for displaying notifications on the lockscreen is pretty handy.

I use LockerPro Lockscreen. Banner notifications are similar to iOS and you can choose to use the banner notifications even while using the phone normally as well, which is cool if you use immersive or expanded desktop mode. Also has ability to add your own shortcuts/apps/widgets and then your whole app drawer as well.
Xposed with "notifcation mod" module does exactly that. Allow you to pull down the notification shade and even respond to the notification if the notification supports it. If the action requires additional user input then the pin screen is presented before the user is allowed to proceed. Works awesome and since it still forces PIN entry, I think very secure. Not private, but secure.

android keypad lockscreen

Is there a way to have the numerical keypad on the lockscreen randomize the position of the numbers everytime you open it?
nope unless you come up with a keypad scrambler app or something. Anyway why do you want a such option

[Q] what 3rd party lockscreen still alows the express me panel to show?

i don't like the stock lockscreen because it is very limited as far as customization is concerned. I like a picture and a clock and notifications off to the side or where ever i want to place them. The problem is that I cant move the time/clock around so that I see the full wall paper i am using for the lockscreen or a if I do like a 3rd party lockscreen, when i activate it the lockscreen does not allow the express me panel to show on the edge when the screen is locked.
So my question is does anyone use a 3rd party locscreen that is very customizable, replaces the stock lockscreen, has pin or gesture unlocking and does not, as a redundant measure, have the stock lockscreen runing underneath it. Right now i am using Next lockscreen and it lays ontop of the stock. It has no pin or gesture to unlock it to go straight to my home screen. Therefore, i have to swipe out of it, then the stock is underneath with the pin authorization. A double move. But this is the only way my expreess me panel stays active. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Show full SMS Message in notification

Hello guys,
In my old phones, when an SMS comes in, I slide down the notification panel, I can see the entire content of the message.
But in the Mate 9, I can only see the first two lines.
Problem is when using my banking app. When I request TAC, it comes as SMS the moment I switch to the message app to get the code, the banking app automatically logs out (that is how it has been programmed for security purposes). The banking app also doesn't allow split-screen.
Is there a way to get the notification show the entire message when I swipe down the notification panel?
Thanks
Have you tried swiping down the notification panel with one finger to open it, then using a two-finger swipe-down on the sms notification itself?

Just tried. Didn't work.
Thanks for the tip.
It seems that there is no way to get the notification show the entire message when we swipe down the notification panel.
I think it is maybe by design for security purposes.
It doesn't seem like it's for security if it's still showing the first line. I've had no luck replacing the default messaging app with Signal, either, which should have fixed this problem -- the phone lets me change the default, but then I stop getting any SMS messages at all until I change it back.
