[Q] Disable new lollipop notifications - Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just got my Edge last saturday (may 2). I loved having all of my notifications come through the edge display. I went ahead and did the lollipop update without doing any research first. Most of it, is fantastic. However, one thing killed it. I hate the duplicate notifications. If I get a text, I dont want it to come up over what I am doing and on the edge panel. Thats part of why I got the edge and not the note 4. /rant
Is there a way to disable the notifications that come up at the top of your screen with the lollipop update?

Not yet..going to have to wait until xposed is working

Well thats less than awesome. I was under the impression Xposed doesnt work on TW. Is there any predictions on when it will be working? I know thats a long shot in that field lol
ps. Popped your "thanks" cherry

That is unchecked on mine. Its not popup as in like, apple style. All apps (gmail, facebook, hangouts, ect.) will produce a banner notification. Google calls them "interruptions". Theyre toast style, so it pops up at the top of your screen, and eventually goes away. The thing is, I want all my notifications to come through the edge display, like they already do, but without the duplicate toast notification.
As Darnellkj said, I think we'll have to wait until xposed is working until we can block the duplicate. Darn

the "block" option is useless because blocks ALL the notification from that app.
the "lollipop popup" is a huge mistake made by google.... without any configuration options for the user.

Widget locker...any good?

Hi,
Has anyone been using this app on the Nexus S?
I only came across it after I saw the multiple icons on the lockscreen on one of the advertised themes.
Reviews on other sites suggest that there is a lag issue and other errors...none of them seem to be on the Nexus S.
Comments please.....
Im after the same answer, I saw it being used on the home screen post and it looked very good.
I want to start doing some customisazion of my own.

You can add up to 10 shortcut keys on the unlock screen. So, top left corner is camera, top right camera is LED flashlight, left middle is notes, right middle is google voice, bottom left is unlock andd buttom right is to silence it.
Oh and you can add widgets on the screen so i added a calendar widget.
I love this app and its really worth the money, being able to access some of these apps right from the screen is real convinient, especially the camera and flash light.
The only issue i've run into is that if you turn it on and off real quick, it will show the stock slide to ulock screen, and sometimes it will go back to the original slide to unlock screen, at this point you would just click on widget locker again to start it up.
Overall great app!
Better yet I'll post a video to give you an idea
When i search for it in the market is it the one made by Teslacoil software?

That's the one.
Also, it is a known issue that this app will not work along side NoLed.
Heres a vid of the app.

Also, if you notice in the vid, when I turn it on from sleep mode, it shows the stock slider, thats because turn it off and on within 3-5 seconds, it will show the stock slider.
Cheers for that i'm sold.
Just downloaded it.
Awesome!
Thanks a lot. Just downloaded it.

It's a must have app... I made a video about it a while ago. I like my lockscreen with my calendar events and music. Also, if your rooted go to advance and set it to rooted device.
I would recommend widgetlocker. One of my favorite android apps

Widgetlocker is like quickdesk not like extended controls. You can customize your lock screen with widgets, shortcuts, toggles, apps, weather, etc..etc..
(dev of WidgetLocker)
Just wanted to let you guys know that my primary phone is a Nexus S. So the coming update is definitely well tested on this phone
Also I've been talking to the dev of NoLED trying to resolve the conflict between the two apps. Not solved yet though.

I had the issue when I was using CM7 nightly ROm with Netarchy 1.2.2 kernel. But I was also having other issues such as the lockscreen spontaneously coming on and off. The lockscreen on/off was happening even when i disabled widget locker . so I dont think it was the app.
Since I flashed another kernel, it seems to have resolved.
Hope that helps.

Any Quick Toggles Mods Yet?

I have always liked the pull-down quick toggles like Samsung and LG feature on their 'skinned' phones. Is there anything available like that for our phone that DOESN'T involve installing a new ROM?
Thanks.

Not that I am aware of as I am using that mod. It just lets you manipulate the toggle panels. Doesn't offer any 'quick toggles' addition to the notification tray.
Ah ok. There are various play store apps to give "notification power widgets" as we used to call it in the HTC desire days

Yes, for some reason it wants to force us to keep a notification icon while we have it enabled AND it's not very intuitive as far as adding/removing toggles. If it weren't for that.....

Still don't like the 'ongoing notification' thing. You either have an icon there, or a blank space. I'll see if I can get used to it until something better comes along.

If you drag the app from the launcher to app info, you can hide the notification, I believe.

The whole app is a notification. So, if I turn those off, I won't see the toggles either.

You are right about the first part - the notification icon. Because I have a battery icon on the left side of the notification area anyway, I guess it doesn't make a difference to me (since I can have the power toggles icon show the battery level instead).
Adding/removing toggles is fairly easy though - just open the power toggles app, and customize away.
But in the end, what matters is what works for you, and if power toggles doesn't work for you, it doesn't

You can change the notification position to not pinned and no icon. under customize.
Cataclysm got closed because it was just getting non stop replies asking where the dev was, because he basically adds his editions to stock rom and leaves it at that. It even states an update will come when Google release a new version to go off. Some people just want to flash a rom every 3 hours tho or they're not happy

lg g3 stock sms themes..any other options?

so this is a great phone. but theres two really annoying and upsetting issues.
1. when i get a notifcation, the screen doesnt wake up..really?
2.the sms themes they provide us. i love i can put my own background there, and individual ones too. but the bubbles SERIOUSLY are lacking, and are down right ridiculous. grey and beige? grey and teal? grey and purple? white and beige? oh, and the worst..a yellow sunshine bubble, and a pink sunshine bubble...and a pink piggy bubble, and a white chicken bubble.
i am 24 years old. i dont want to have anything to do with a bubble shaped like a pink pig or a white chicken.
are there any decent bloat-free apps out there that offer more customization, besides rooting?
Wondering the same thing

i love qksms, the development is coming along. def very fast and gorgeous (if you like material design) but not customisable if that's what the OP wants.
evolve is good too and has a ton of themes.
So about notifications not waking the screen up? Is that intentional or can we toggle it in settings somewhere? I'm using pin lock.

(PSA) Samsung's "Good Lock" gives you stock-like statusbar (and more)

The app is available on the Galaxy App's app market and works on Samsung's touchwiz android 6.0 (some say you can side load the apk on touchwiz android version 5.1 and it will still work; app won't appear on the galaxy store unless you are on android 6.0 though)
It, of course being by samsung, DOES NOT require root and can be uninstalled if you don't like it.
Just look up "Good Lock" on the samsung app store (Galaxy Apps); it will say "update" instead of download since it's an update to the System UI, and your phone should reboot.
Confirmed working on tdunham's deodexed MM rom. Should work without any issues on stock none-rooted.
Here's a video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJ0P1S9jom0
(pokedex animations not included )
Just tried it. Tried it for a few minutes. And uninstalled it. Too many bright colors for my taste.
Colors can be changed by going into the Good Lock settings, then selecting the routines menu and editing default. Darker colors are on the left while lighter is on the right. If only the recents menu could be changed so easily.
Also the bokeh is ****. Not only does it cause lag upon opening the drawer, but it looks incredibly ugly. It's nowhere near as well implemented as iOS and even if it was, it wouldn't fit with material design.

I was happy once I figured out I could change the color from the butt ugly purple they started me on. Now I'm back closer to the stock MM color.
Your second point, are you talking about the app drawer on the lock screen? I didn't personally like that. You can disable it, though. If you go into routine just like changing the color and at the last setting page it has a little screen with the sections for clock, notifications, and app drawer. Uncheck the app drawer and it is gone.

I was referring to the notification drawer. Though I also dislike the other areas that Samsung has shoved bokeh (blur) into, like the power menu.

Ohh OK, I understand now. I don't mind the blur too much and haven't noticed any lag from it yet. Overall, I think it is an improvement on TW...even with the crappy recents.

You can set your own lockscreen background with Good Lock. After you install Good Lock it will change but if you go and set your lockscreen background again, it will stick.
Is it just me or while using good lock, and when you go into the recent apps and you hit clear all it doesn't clear all and it just clears apps that are visible in the recent apps menu?

Samsung's New Notification/Lockscreen App

Hey all.. I don't think I've seen a post about this so I thought I'd be the first to give you all a heads-up on Samsung's new lock app called Good Lock. It's a fairly new app and I'm sure they'll make improvements. It pretty much changes your lockscreen, notifications tray, and recent tabs. Let me know what you think of the app.
**Apparently some rooted users are having various problems (constant reboot and randomly uninstalls itself), so keep that in mind...
You can download this in the Galaxy App store
Here are some screenshots

Saw this earlier today, haven't downloaded yet. Are your icons a previous theme or are they from this new Good Lock app?

The white outlined icons are from the theme store

I downloaded this today, and so far I like it! I wasn't sure at first, but the more that I use it, the more I enjoy it.
I like the new notifications menu. Looks a lot like stock Android. Wish u could use a custom lockscreen wallpaper, but besides that, it's pretty cool! I'm surprised that Samsung created something like this.
To answer your question, I'm pretty sure that those icons are from a previous theme. I haven't found any icon customization with this app
I tried the app, but it uninstalled itself after a bit playing around with it. It looked better than the stock lock screen and notification area (although I don't like the colours) and I'd like to keep the app. Is there a way to prevent that the app is automatically uninstalled?
In Nova Launcher pulling notification bar down is not flawless if you use gesture...
Just a warning that it doesn't work with rooted devices. I made the mistake of installing it on my rooted S7 and it caused constant reboots.
I've also uninstalled in for ithe time being because it didn't work with my Samsung led case. it kept asking for location. I've never had the uninstall problem or reboot problem. you can change the lockscreen by going to Samsung settings. I really hope they polish the app a bit more.

So far, I'm liking Good Lock. just a couple weird things. Looks like you no longer can customize the quicksettings tiles, and the recent apps switcher is much better, but if you use the button to bring it up and dismiss it (also using the button) then it goes to the Home App instead of the app I was in.

Are you rooted? If not, that explains why the reboot issue would never have happen for you.
Downloading now.
I tried it and uninstalled within minutes. The recent apps is horrible - separate chrome tabs are now nameless icons making it useless to find the tab you wanted, and I like having a preview of the open apps. Also, as mentioned, the MM notification draw pulldown bug in Nova is present, which drives me insane. And no lockscreen wallpaper choices, no thanks. The only reason I'd want to use it is the more stock android look, and that you can finally double tap a notification on the lockscreen to open it, which should be a thing on the current lockscreen anyway.

You select your wallpaper just as before from your phone settings/display and wallpaper.
So far I think I'll keep the Good Lock

I've also uninstalled it for the time being. I think they'll release a more stable version and probably get rid of the recent apps lol.

On your phone, go to your apps / Samsung folder / Galaxy Apps then download from there.

Hi there Sir Eagle. Could you upload the apk to dropbox or any? Seems like I can't download it through the GStore. Must be a country thingy.
