Disable Hover - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been trying to find a way to do this but I can't find a way, but figured maybe I'm missing something. Is there a way to disable Google's "Hover" notifications in Lollipop? They are pretty annoying when I'm playing games, or when singer one is using my phone they see my conversations.
Edit: just realized I posted this in the wrong section. If a Dev could please move this to Q&A.
Thanks!

For now its a built in feature with no option to disable. Im currently waiting for this myself so Google can either bring back the notification ticker, or someone can implement it in their ROM.

I think all sort of questions are asked here in XDA. You can go & assume to think that such question may not be asked by anyone & bham! You find it in the q&a section or somewhere else.

i dont know why...
^ So you do not have a search function on your screen either?
I understand limiting posts in development ares but being search-less makes for a lot of duplicate posts
I have found this:

You mean thread search or general?

I have no thread search or general search. I am of course logged in but the "buttons" are not on my screen. Is it just my account? Thought this might have something to do with low post count(<10) accounts
There was a post about this in the general section - it was down for maintenance, and was for about 9 hours. It's back up now so you should be able to see it.
Is it already back up? Not yet for me. Because I understand spam posts but restricting search is kind of weird when you want newbies to search before they even try to post.
edit: Sorry, refreshing cache worked.
edit2: Oh gosh, the restrictions are terrible. -.-
No search still, ran crap cleaner, running firefox 9.0.1. Is there a specific area to clear cache that cc wont get?
Thanks!
After the last post I made the search is back on!
Crap cleaner worked.
Thanks for all the responses and help

[Q] Is there a place to request for app/widget development?

Im wondering if there is a place to submit ideas on widgets/apps. There's not many people with the talent/skills to create programs but its sometimes the ones that know less that can think out the box.
Does anyone know of such a place?
I have this idea for an Instant Messenger widget. Since im very fond of widgets (because to me its a huge difference between our apps and iOS apps) I would love to be able to go through my AIM/Yahoo Buddy list on screen and send a message to someone that way without having to open up the specific app.
If something like this already exists id love to know about it. Even if its just a widget showing you who's online and when tapping sends you to an IM box (Kinda like the FB widget that shows you recent status updates/news posts.) If not id love to spread the idea and see if anyone can create such a thing.
Post this in the general android forums under the proper section rather than a device-specific forum under Development (where it should not be). Someone there might have some ideas.

I was thinking that but I've seen many other IM apps that weren't made by AOL or Yahoo so I figured a 3rd party would be more interested then the main source. Especially after seeing AOL ruin their AIM app with their recent upgrade.
Is there a way a Mod can redirect this thread to the proper place or should I just create a new one?

I promise you that none of the developers in this forum would be willing to spend time on an AOL widget I didn't know anyone still used that.

Yeah Im sure its a dying program but I figured it would bring it back a bit if it was always on =P like BBM ... when I had a bb i hated bbm but i used it cuz it was just ALWAYS on. If I had a widget I would always be on lol if i had the time I would love to learn how these things work and just make one.

[Q] How to search the forum?

Hi there.
I've been using the forum for a while now, but never felt the need to ask something, nor to respond (as I'm a noob).
But today I was going to ask a question in the developers forum, I receive a message saying I first have to post 10 messages.
From then on I can't perform searches any more.
Is that right or have I done something wrong?
Thanks,
Caio
You did not do anything wrong really. Maybe close your browser and re open it or do a restart and see if you still can not use the search function. The ten post thing is a rulle to try and keep the devwlopment forums clean. Next time you have a question post it here in the general or the Q&A forums. If you continue to have trouble with the search function cantact q admi.istrator or moderator.

Hi,
The search function has been down all day.
I never realized how much I used it,until it disappeared.
Ok them. I guess I basically surf the forum via the search, so I'm missing it too much. But if the feature is down for everyone I'll have to try again later.
Thank you guys for the prompt answers!
Goto google and paste this in:

Close your eyes and cross your fingers the forum search suxs!
Ok. Thanks for all your replies. But as my problem with the search has been resolved, how can I delete or close the threads?
When you hit search, if nothing comes up, just hit F5. Works like a charm, every single time

How to get Google Now working for Galaxy S3 Verizon?

Some of you have probably seen this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224 which allows for the install of google now with an addon voice search for google now app. The Voice search app does not input text into the google now app as it is supposed to. I was wondering if anyone else tried this for their galaxy s3 (verizon) and had it successfully work with the voice search for google now app function possibly?
your topic includes a question mark. Clearly this does not belong in this section. MODS please close.
I didn't see a specific Q&A for just the Verizon GS3 and this is a very current android development topic that I could use help with instead of you wasting time with a pointless comment. It would make sense to either answer the question, or direct me to a more relevant thread to post this, or simply not read the thread.

We don't have a specific Q&A because there is too much overlap with the SGS from other carriers.

Since this isn't JUST for the verizon phone... maybe you should try the SIII main Q&A, where you will get more answers than from a specific forum with less than 20 topics...
If mod wants to move this to Q&A then thats not a big deal, it can be moved.
I have followed the directions in that post on my vzw gs3 and it does work as expected. Add the 3rd party Search App widget to your homescreen and click that when you want to search. It inputs then text to google now but then you need to press enter in order for it to execute.
If it doesnt work then try reinstalling maybe?
I didn't know if it had anything to do with the locked bootloader but I will also post there then. thanks.
side note: if any of u try the Google now method on your s3 tell me if it works for u,thanks
It worked fine for me by following the directions. Make sure you are renaming the apps properly and setting permissions.
I believe this should be posted in Themes & Apps but that's just me.

[Q] find & list all my posts in xda

How do I do this?
Trying to find a thread I started. Even when I do a search under my username it only comes back with one reply I made a couple of days ago.
In your profile, statistics tab, you can find a link to all your posts.
Or at home, general tab, you can select participated tab which will list all the threads you have ever posted on.

Thanks.
I think they must've all been deleted as it shows just this one & the one I mentioned.
A shame, someone replied to a question which I've just found the time to try. Now I can't find the thread

I mostly use google to search in forums, cause the built in searchers suck badly. Try using google: arb76 site:forum.xda-developers.com
