In touchwiz, during a call, there is a drop-down notification item that allows you to handle some call functions such as ending, muting, or returning to the call screen. This was very functional for work as I am often away from the call screen during a call, and also need to quickly mute as well.
Our default dialer (not even sure it's the dialer that handles this functionality), allows for hanging up and returning to the call screen from the menu, but not muting. Anyone know if there's a way to add this? I tried finding a screenshot of how this is done in touchwiz, but couldn't.
Thanks in advance!
I'm struggling with whether to sell this phone, or the Note 3. This functionality would tilt the scale towards the OPO.

This phone simply doesn't have that functionality. There's the possiblity that there's an Xposed module that might do it, but considering that Xposed isn't compatible with Lollipop that's probably irrelevant.
Just wanted to bump this as we have a new version of Cynogen. Still a pertinent question for me.

Before I discovered all of these ROMs on this forum that were somewhat debloated already, I spent a lot of time going through and debloating it myself to get it exactly how I want it and make it as vanilla as possible.
Along that train of thought, I'm having a heck of a time with the lockscreen. It's easy to rename or remove htclockscreen.apk, same as the Inc2 and TBolt. However, upon doing that, while the phone does revert back to the stock Android lockscreen, you can't answer an incoming call while locked. You have to unlock it, and then it appears as though you're already in the call - therefore all you can do is "end call" and call back.
For a period, Widget Locker seemed to remedy this, but it was inconsistent, at best. I've also messed with some of the idlescreen apk's (related to the Sense 3.0 "apps" within the lockscreen), to no avail. What am I missing?
TIA...
I think you have to select the option 'Hide Incoming Calls' in WidgetLocker settings for calls to work properly. You still have to unlock before answering, though. Unfortunately, that happens when you disable the lockscreen completely. I got used to it now. After unlocking I see the incoming call and have the option to answer or decline.
Definitely better than not being able to answer at all... thanks for that - I'll give that a shot.
That definitely did the trick... honestly that's not a bad feature anyway - decreases the chance of a pocket answer, and an extra swipe is no big deal to me.
What's weird is, in my testing, the other way worked fine as well... i.e. it came up normal before enabling "hide incoming calls". Who knows...
I got HTC Desire and on Oxygen rom and I got few questions regarding stock gingerbread experience and hoping people come across work around for annoyances I'm having. I know some of questions are better suited for specific forum for applications but I just want to throw everything out here and see if anyone knows.
1. Miss call notification it's driving me nuts. I use "Go Contacts" because of T9 search. In notification I press miss call person and it still stays in notification. I remember reading in the past developers can't get rid of it with some reason due to gingerbread change. Anyone got work around for this without solution being use stock caller?
2. I'm using LauncherPro's bottom icon notification feature for miss calls/sms. Only problem is I press calls and it still say I got miss calls with whatever number miss call I got unless I press on the number I miss called. How can I make it so I can get rid of notification of LauncherPro when I press phone contact button or something?
3. I use Handcent and it has great feature of changing LED light into blue and it makes so it much easier to know when I got sms even when charging. I'm not sure if it's because I use Full Screen Caller ID or I pressed LED root feature where I can change colour to what ever I want but it just doesn't work any more even after I disabled LED root feature.
Because of it I'm thinking maybe use separate app for notification or something if they exist?
Many thanks in advance and let me know if anyone have better way of handle miss call notification issue!
I have HTC Desire S, used all kinds of dialer apps and had the same unread-count problem.
However, after I changed my original ROM to LBA (and also changed the launched to GO Launcher so it might also be related) - it was fixed!
I don't know how, but it's working fine now.
Im about to be coming from the Galaxy S5 side of the world. My brother got a OnePlus One and made me want to get one so he just gave me his invite.
Only thing that may bug me, is the notification pulldown where the phone info sits when you are on a call. I use my S5 heavily, almost exclusively for work. Im on 5-7hrs of conference calls a day on this and I heavily use the notification pulldown to hit mute/unmute many times. I know when I had a Nexus 5 that this was not possible. All it had was an end call button. I attached a screenshot of what my S5 shows. It shows options for speaker, mute, and end.
Any way to modify the stock ROM somehow to allow for this? Or better yet if there was a way to maybe set the volume button (say if both up and down were pressed together) that you can mute the call and again press it and unmute. Coming from a Blackberry about 2-3yrs ago, this is the biggest button I miss (don't get me wrong, I don't miss the Blackberry AT ALL). I just find both Apple and Android devices haven't fully got into the business side like how Blackberry at a dedicated mute button.

Check out 3rd party phone dialer apps. There's some good ones that I'm sure have this ability. I don't remember the name though.
But the stock rom have all these options that you want !!!! When you call sb, there is option to mute, speaker, end call etc.
You have all these and more has icons at the bottom of the dialer screen when you are in a call.

He wants it under notifications, not on the call screen. I guess he multi tasks while he talks on the phone?

That is correct, Im on conference calls a lot, like 6-7hrs a day. I check emails in the middle at times or have documents up to read on the phone when Im not in front of the laptop. With the Galaxy you got the options right in the pull down like the screenshot shows to Mute/Unmute the call without having to go back into the Phone dialer. I don't think Ive seen this on even on HTC/LG, I know its not on the Google Play versions, so that somewhat really put me off when I got a Nexus 5 and then couldn't deal with it on being able to quickly mute/unmute, so ended up giving it up and moving back to the Galaxy line of phones.

Hey,I came from an M8 where there was a tab on the quick setting to edit the order of the settings when the notification bar is two finger swiped. How do we do that in marshmallow?
I think you are referring the "System UI Tuner" feature of Marshmallow. I tried to activate it, without any luck. Maybe HTC Sense disables it.

Just tried it, no luck either. There must be a work around.
No luck
I cannot get this to work. I have an A9 with Sprint. Developer options are on, animation is on, and I've tried every scenario in this thread. The main reason I'd like to change the quick settings menu is I see a security flaw (I'll call it). When the phone is locked, whenever you wake the screen you can still pull down the quick settings menu. So if my phone gets stolen someone can turn off my mobile data and/or Wi-Fi. Problem then is I am not able to lock, wipe, or locate my device. This obviously has to be an oversight on Google but I'm sure it'll be addressed someday
SystemUI Tuner is NOT on the Sprint A9 at least if not missing on all.
I'd suggest reaching out to @moversi and JasonMac at HTC regarding this, as it doesn't line up with their press to bring a more slim sense and stock Android here.
In my opinion HTC has been faulty for awhile at removing bone stock Android features, all of which should be present on the A9 with its slimmer sense.
-MultiUser support
-Ambient Display(have Amoled screen now)
-SystemUI Tuner
-Adaptive Sound I believe is another
HTC did a great job at enhancing Android for many years but now Android has evolved to the point where we are seeing stock features removed completely.
Hopefully they address this, but it's not likely unless they hear the outcry as things like multiuser have been absent for a long long long time on Sprint at least.

That figures, thanks for letting me know this so I'm not going crazy anymore. Would I have this option if I root the phone? I'm really leaning towards rooting (as soon as Marshmallow is figured out) so simple things like this are possible.
Hey guys, I'm also really missing the quick settings editing feature. Is there an HTC support forum where we could bring out this issue?
Hey XDA,
I just got a new Mate 9 after I send my Nexus 6P to RMA. So far a great phone, although I've been annoying myself to some notification and Bluetooth related issues so far. I hope someone may be able to help me out here. Would be really appreciated.
- Notifications seem to ignore there given importance by the app and are not ordered to it. All notifications are simple visible in the status bar with it's icon, even if the priority is low, when on the Nexus 6P it would be hidden from the notification area and on the bottom of the notification drawer. This is really annoying for constantly running apps/processes like AccuBattery, Tasker, PocketBell and WhatsApp's web notification. Is there any way to honor this importance/priority without setting this for the whole app and order these notifications?
- Notifications seem not to honor there persistency. For example, when listening to Spotify, I'm able to swipe away this notification, which shouldn't be possible. Is there any way to make these really persistent?
- Notifications are not visible on the lock screen. I'm only able to select this on an per-app basis, but is there any way to configure this the other way around? Show all apps on lock, instead of the apps I don't want?
- Bluetooth Audio volume is not controllable through the phone. The sound volumes are separate, one on my headset and the phone. Any way to link these back together, like the feature added in Android 6, if I'm correct? Although, I'm able to see the charge of my headset. That's new, so I wonder why the volume isn't linked.
I've been used to Android Oreo/Nougat on the Nexus 6P and find these issues above really counterproductive and I'll lose the overview fast this way. Is this just me, or is this really different then the AOSP?
And if so, any idea how I can fix this? Is there something baked into EMUI that would fix this, or will a APP/ROM be the only solution? (although, I don't hope so) I have searched the web, but I wasn't able to find relation questions.
Oh, I'm having the MHA-L09 (with MHA-L09C432B126).
Thanks in advance!
