[Q] Samsung flip case makes night clock upside down - Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I always use night clock and it works fine til I got the flip case. The night clock becomes upside down during flip case closing. And it returns to normal if the flip is opened. Do you have the same issue and how can you fix it?
Thank you

I use the night clock also and don't have that issue. Do you have your phone set to left handed for the edge screen? Or try picking it up and tilt the edge screen downwards

Already tried everything including, left hand, screen rotation. And the night clock remain upside down

I've Flip Wallet and I do not have this problem either.

Why don't you turn off auto rotation and see if that works

Sorry not wrong on mine either but when scroll the edge screen it flips upside down.
Screen rotation is on, left hand is off.

I have same problem. I also notice that if my screen is off with flip wallet open then night clock is in normal position. When Flip wallet is closed night clock is up side down.
Auto rotation on/off not change anything.
One more thing I noticed some times night clock is together with alarm, sometimes is with my home time. When it is with my home time - home date is not always correct. Presently I'm 7 hours off my home time and night clock show present and home time with same date.
OK I found reason why there are two clocks - in lock screen/show information there is position "Dual Clock" it is responsible for show one or two clocks on edge as nigth clock.
But still problem with wrong date and up side down clock remain.

I send message to Samsung - answer - there will be patch for this

Lolipop solve problem

[Q] Desk clock?

is it me or has the deskclock option been removed? On my previous devices i have had the option to select this so that when it is on charge at night it also acts as as a bedside clock.
On the One s the only think i can see is under 'clock' it says world clock and there is a picture of a planet with different time zones but not actually a digital clock showing the time.
Am i missing something somewhere?
Basically i want a digital clock that can double as an alarm clock to have when the phone is on charge at night....would be great if it could also turn off the home and back button also as these seem to stay on at night when charging with the ones i have tried from the market.
thanks
According to my knowledge they HTC has removed the Desktop clock feature.
Very annoying, why can't they give you an option to switch from 'world clock' ( the planet showing) to a clock like on the older version, at least it would have a real use.

The lack of alarm clock is annoying. I've tried out some clock apps, and those work well enough except the bottom buttons stay lit. Haven't found a good solution yet.

Alarm Clock Plus works best for me. It should not be moved to sdcard, as it breaks like any other app using alarms and/or widgets.
Customizing it the first time may take some time but it can do almost everything so.

There is an alarms section in the Clock app. Nothing special but it works fine.

I know, what I meant was what the OP stated, the desktop clock was missing. I did try Alarm Clock Plus, it worked great except that the bottom buttons remain lit which was distracting.
Interestingly, having now gone a few nights without a bedside clock, I find I'm sleeping a bit better without knowing what time it is.
im using night clock donate at the moment and its a very clean and simple clock which i want however i too have the problem with the three buttons staying lit when its on
If anyone knows of one i want a simple digital clock with the ability to turn off the button lights and also if possible mute notifications when its activated (like email and twitter etc)
Lightning Bug is an app that I use for white noise that also has a fairly customizable clock that goes with it. It has an option to turn off device lights, although that does not seem to be working correctly on the One S (could be something the devs need to fix for Ice Cream Sandwich).

Extra home screen indicator.

I didn't really know what to search to find an answer to this question, so I'm sorry if it has already been posted. I have a full stock nexus and the default launcher, sometimes I notice a little + sign where the home screen indicators are. I know it's used to add a new home screen, but I don't want it there. And when I scroll all the way to the right there's an extra blank home screen. Does anyone know if it's possible to get rid of this?
Question 2: I have a repeating alarm set every morning with the stock alarm app. I've noticed that sometimes the alarm icon in the notification bar will disappear, and only come back up if I tap on the alarm in quick settings. The alarm is still set and still goes off.
Neither of these are really issues, just nuisances, and for all I know they could be "features". But any help would be much appreciated, thank you!
for #1, just place something on the homescreen then remove the item.

I just noticed #2 happening on my N5 as well. I figured maybe it was because I have made some status bar changes with Xposed Framework + Gravity Box, but I guess not. Probably a bug of some sort. What's weird is I've seen it come and go randomly too when just looking at my screen. Oh well. Kind of bugs me, but not a huge deal since my alarm still goes off every morning.
I have the same problem on my Nexus 7 and Nexus 5. I guess it's more of an annoyance than a problem.
I have had this problem for a while now, usually goes away if I bring an icon over to a new page then back, or if I restart my phone.
I have since switched back to Nova as they have implemented many kit kat GEL like additions, and I used this on my nexus 4, missed a lot of the swipe features and icon packs
home screen
You restore you N5 in the company setting....
Many be Issue is the some missing file....
I've had the problem with the blank home page several times on my N5 and adding/removing an item to the page removes it. It's always a extra page to the right of the last active page.
I have a daily recurring alarm and I only see the alarm icon two hours before the set time. In the notifications I have the option to dismiss the alarm early.
I do have an issue with HD Widgets which lives on the home (first) screen. Sometimes the widget becomes embedded on the page -- I will see what appears to be overlaid images. I first noticed what appeared to be two sets of temperatures (I use the weather widget with three or five day forecast). The easiest way to correct the problem is to drag the widget to a new page at the end, delete the home page which now displays the widget as a background image, then re-order the pages. This has never occurred on my N4 or N7 which are set up similarly except that the home page is the middle page.

Unofficial directory of features/requests for the Verizion HTC M8

This is an unofficial directory for issues/features that we want to see fixed/added via ROMS or software updates. Simply post a request, and if it is appropriate and acceptable it will be added into the directory. This post serves as a place where DEVS can find an issue or feature and can... well... fix it! I plan for most of these to be at least partially exclusive to sense 6 and or the Verizon HTC m8. I will update the directory nightly
GUIDELINES​*The issue must be something that more than one person can relate to.
*The issue cannot pertain to another app. I.E. if an app is crashing too much.
*K.I.S.S Keep it simple stupid.
*Look before you post! I will update the directory and see if it's there. This will save us both some time
*Lastly off-topic posts or typo requests won't bother me the slightest, but just know your boundaries

This is getting annoying for me. The double tap to wake and the slide up to unlock is an amazing feature. But it's almost worthless if we can't use it when the phone is laying down. My phone is on my desk at work most of the day, and it would be great if I could just double tap to see what notification just came in.
I think it has to do with the g-sensor. When I first turned the phone on, the pop up menu said that the unlock gestures only work when the screen is being held in portrait mode. So I'm thinking that when it's laying down, the phone doesn't know exactly what orientation it should be in. I've found that even holding the phone upright just a touch allows the gestures to work fine.
Changing shortcuts of the gestures while the screen is off? For instance, swipe left while screen is off launches 'X' app...
Unlocked wireless tether. Get rid of the various wifi notifications. LED torch quick toggle.

When on a call, press power button to turn screen off, when call ends the screen turns back on by itself. Why? Idk but very annoying, only HTC phones do this!
If someone can tweak it to where when in a call the user manually presses the power button to turn screen off, the screen stays off even when the caller or whoever hangs up.
A feature that would be great for me is a quick toggle/widget to toggle the motion launch gestures. I have to go through all the settings menus every time I want to toggle it (which is only when I'm at work). When at work, my phone stays in my pocket, and I am moving around a lot, so sometimes my thigh will unlock the phone and open apps, along with draining my battery.
Changing images for navigation bar.

U WOT M8?
Just pointing out a few things:
1. As far as the WiFi notification, you can get rid of this by going to Settings > Wi-Fi > Advanced, and de-selecting the "Notify me" option. This is what I did on my previous phone (M7) and my M8, and since de-selecting that box, I've never seen the WiFi notification pop up.
2. The Wake Gestures actually can be used when the phone is laying down. This also annoyed me to no end initially, until I saw someone post that you can just move your phone slightly to make the wake gestures work. I'm assuming this works because it trips the internal movement sensor, which then makes the phone think that it's been picked up. The movement doesn't even have to be vertical; I just slightly move my phone to the side a bit, and it's enough to make the wake gestures work for me.
Email Widget for the native Sense email app...i cannot BELIEVE this was left out by HTC/VZW/whoever...WTF!
I'd like to be able to adjust the grid size of the home screens, 4 across is too spaced out, I like it lining up with 4 icons and app drawer icon at the bottom.
Also, as mentioned in another post, I'd like to be able to customize the keys next to the home key, i.e. move the back key to the right and replace the multitask key with the menu key etc.
ability to hide the standard soft buttons and replace them with LMT style popup buttons.
Ability to toggle individual gestures on and off. I'd like to have double tap to wake, but turn off swipe to wake. I end up waking the device with a swype simply by pulling it out of my pocket which I don't want.
Toggle automatic factory reset on 10 bad unlock attempts on and off or set the number of failed attempts to an arbitrary number.
Able to remove ANY of the always on notificatios. Alarm, keyboard, hearing aid boost, nfc, etc

I love the "knock on" feature, tho I agree, it would be very nice if it worked even when the phone is laying flat. But why is there no "knock off"? Don't they kinda go hand in hand?
Ability to have more than 10 alarms

Slide finger across statusbar to control brightness like Gravitybox (enabling in Gravitybox does not work on our devices).
Ability to display notifications from more than the stock HTC apps when using the Dot Matrix case.

I have found that tapping the screen 3 times (instead of 2) will usually wake the screen while it is laying on a desk. Just use a little bit of force on the first tap... It seems like an accelerometer needs to detect motion before the screen digitizer wakes up.
This would still be a nice feature request, though I have a feeling it won't be possible without having a significant effect on battery life.

Three taps with the phone laying flat has been working for me as well.
I would love to see a built in data transfer rate in the status bar like Android revolution has for the m7

Side Panel orientation

Howdy all,
Unless I am missing something. Can the messages scroll in the same orientation like the clock at night. Example if you have cnn streaming the words run along the main screen. I would have liked it run away from the main screen if I have the edge laying flat on a table and looking straight at it. Hope I explained it well enough lol.
Yes, kinda
If screen rotation is on, you can check the box for 180 degree rotation in the edge panel settings. This will rotate the edge panel correctly with the phone.
Unfortunately, this doesn't work without auto rotation on, which I don't like.

Question Digital clock keeps overlaying the messages instantly

Hello everyone!
Is it just me who is really bothered that the display of new messages is constantly overlaid by the default digital clock? A new message comes in an instantly the default digital clock is shown instead of the message. The message is blurred in the background and can only be seen by tapping the display. For what reason do I have a smartwatch that shows me messages, wenn all I can see is alwyas the default clock?
There was the silent hope that this would be fixed after the firmware update, but it's still really annoying and sometimes only makes the clock usable to a very limited extent :-(
AOD and activation with wrist movement is active ... still I often have to tap the display or press the home button to get a proper display again. Annoying when I´m out with the dog and have always to use the hand that holds the leash to see the messages.
I have this happen when running Google Maps. I find it much more convenient (and safer) to glance at the directions on my wrist without having to use the phone. But half the time when I try to check the route, it's covered up by the time. I would really like to have Maps keep displaying until I reach my destination.
