Android 4.4.3 wishlist

I just got my Nexus 5 with Android 4.4 and shortly thereafter I got the OTA for 4.4.2. Everything is running smooth, but I feel like there are a few features missing.
So I started this thread to talk about what features people want in the 4.4.3 update.
Let me know what you want.
Here are mine:
1. Sound/Vibrate/Silent toggle in the quick settings panel.
2. Flashlight toggle in the quick settings panel.
3. "Quick settings bar" at the top of the notification pull down.
4. Ability to customize the quick settings panel and "quick settings bar"

I miss the notifications from locksrceen like in gingerbread days.

ok
why dont you root phone and install custom rom it will give u all u want

I'm sure all of the OEM software people are diligently watching this thread.

Android Lollipop lock screen notifications

Hey
I have moto g with android lollipop 5.0.1
I want to have some notifications on the lockscreen, like call, sms and messager, but not gmail notification. And i want that it appear in the regular notification bar when it unlock.
How this is possible?

As far as I know, the notification bar and the lockscreen notifications are the same thing. You can block an app in Settings -> Sound and notification but it will affect both of them. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

You are correct..
I would like only the most important notifications (call sms and messager) to show up on lock screen

Maybe a new launcher from the Play store can help you. Sadly I have never tried any of them so I can't recommend one.

I use Smart Launcher 2, because I like how simple it is to pick up a app
i still continue to search, but at this point, don't beleive so much that it is possible

notifications and sd Lollipop

Hi, i have a Lillopop on my note Edge and now i see double notificacions for whatsapp, Hangouts... because notification appears on edge screen and main screen with Kikkat only on Edge screen.
Do you Know any fix for them?
Another question i can´t write on my SD external with lollipop, I think Lollipop have a fix for can Write SD external Again.
Thank´s a lot

If youre rooted you can fix it to write anywhere on the SDcard.
If youre not rooted you can write in the app dir the installated app created when it was being installed. (on the Sdcard)

multi notifications
Anyone know of that fix? For example; whatsapp, Snapchat etc gives me a notification on the top of the screen (lolipop banner) and the note edge screen. I hate the lolipop notification. Kit kat was perfect just the black bar why would I want half the screen taken up for ages displaying a message. Anyone have a fix for this? Either just the note edge notification or going back to kit kat notifications. Thanks in advance

you can't.
i downgraded to KK 4.4.4 because Google doesn't let the user remove the Lollipop popup (head-up) notifications.
the only thing you can do (i think) is disable the notifications in the edge panel, but the Lollipop notifications can't be disabled... you can only disable "globally" the notifications from apps that you can select in the relevant options menu.
the only known way to disable Lollipop popup and bring back the ticker in the status bar is rooting the phone, install xposed and the relevant module, but, at the moment, xposed is not compatible with 5.0.1.
maybe there's also a way using an sql editor (with root), like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/head-notification-lollipop-t3031936

What did you do to go back to kit kat? Do I have to be rooted? I hope not. I am not liking lollipop at all. Primarily because my edge is now a note 4 withouten the notifications staying confined to the edge panel alone. Thanks in advance.

no root needed.
backup yr data
download and flash with ODIN the KK 4.4.4 firmware for your phone (mine is 915FY)
after the reboot, the phone will bootloop
remove the battery, wait 1 min, reinsert
boot into recovery menu and Wipe DATA and CACHE.
reboot
all done.
remember to turn off wifi and mobile data when you boot up the phone after the downgrade, and first of all go to settings and DISABLE automatic firmware update.
otherwise the phone will start downloading the Lollipop firmware and an ask you to update the phone again and again.

Thanks for the responses, helped. Yeah I genualinly can't stand the lolipop notifications seems pointless to me, and they can't be swpiped away without being removed from the notifction bar. Going to downgrade now! Thanks a lot! Possibly be avalbile to do on root when 5.1 comes out? When it does and someone finds out please let me know be so thankful.
Cheers

Lock screen notification issues on Nougat

I'm having very inconsistent lock screen notifications on Nougat after the update. I'm on the stock theme with Magazine Unlock.
Update: It appears as if new notifications display on the lock screen. As soon as you unlock the screen, then re-lock it, the notifications disappear from the lock screen even if they're still active in the notification tray. This is not how lock screen notifications are supposed to work, AFAIK and as far as I remember from Marshmallow and other ROMs as well.
Global:
When device is locked: Show all notification content
If device is locked, prevent typing (...) [unchecked]
Screen lock secured with PIN, fingerprint unlock enabled
App specific (In this example, 'Slack'):
Allow notifications [checked]
Display on the lock screen [checked]
When locked: Hide notification content [checked] (tried this set both ways, no difference)
I don't see any lock screen notifications with these settings. In the case of Slack above, I have active notifications in my status bar and I don't see them on the lock screen.
I went to bed last night with nothing displaying, woke up and I saw Calendar, Gmail, etc on my lock screen. Used my phone a bit, re-locked display, turned screen on, and back to no notifications. This morning though, Tasker is now showing in my lock screen (as it should) but none of my other apps are showing on the lock screen.
Is anybody else experiencing this?

I have a similar problem.
I have just upgraded to Nougat, EVA-L09C432B360, and I have no notification on status bar on screenlock. I find it annoying. Didn't find any work around.
Once the screen is unlocked I find the notification on status bar.
I dont want to have the notification displayed as a banner but only in status bar.

It's very annoying. I didn't have this problem on Marshmallow with the VUi Material Design theme, maybe once he gets a version for EMUI 5.0 it'll start working again.

I've just upgraded to B378, but still I got no notification in status bar of the lock screen ( nor aquamail or whatsapp). It might be the applications in fault here.

I just got a brand new Honor 8 which immediately upgraded to Nougat, and this seems to be the default behaviour for lockscreen notifications on EMUI, not an issue or a bug.
Since EMUI is heavily iOS inspired, and this is the notification behaviour on iOS then they copied it. I suggest trying a different lockscreen app until Huawei changes this.

That is caused by the theme used.
Go to themes, customize, lockscreen style, and be sure that you have selected #unlock with images"

I have only magazine unlock option. This did not solve the problem.

I'm having the exact same problem on my P10 lite (it came with Nougat out-of-the-box).
Has anyone figured this out? I don't have unlock with images option either..

As mentioned earlier - EMUI does not use the standard Nougat lockscreen notification actions. Do not expect it to work like stock android. The only way around it is to do one of these two options:
1. Install a 3rd party launcher (be careful, some don't play nicely with fingerprint/pin security)
2. Install Nils Lock Screen Notification app from the Play Store. This app does exactly what you want and lets you keep the stock lock screen.

Had the same issue with Gmail notifications using an Honor 8. The solution I found was hidden in Gmail Settings.
Open Gmail settings
Click on your email account(s) under the General settings
Make sure Notifications is checked
Select Inbox sound and vibrate
Make sure Label notifications is checked
This was the missing piece for me: Make sure the Notify for every message is checked
Screenshots of Gmail Settings
Also make sure you have changed the default email app to Gmail. Settings, Apps, Settings (wheel that appears at the bottom of the screen), Default app settings, Email - Gmail.

I had the same problem before. To fix it you have to enable the magazine unlock after apply the theme.

Notifications on lockscreen

Hello,
I am new to this forum and new to my view 10.
I recently noticed when receiving messages they are not visible on my lockscreen.
No icons in the top left, no messages below the big clock.
I tried both solutions from
Notifications are hidden
and
Notifications on lock screen - how to unhide content?
they did not solve my problem.
Circumstances:
tried: Notifications management -> 3 dots -> disable and enable "Display all notifications"
tried: disable "Display all notifications" - reboot - enable
using fingerprint + pin to unlock
no face unlock setup
Could this be affected by the lockscreen emui theme?
Hope someone can help me.

I also have this issue, tried all of the above and still no notifications on lock screen... quite annoying.

I found a solution for me.
It actually really depends on the emui lockscreen design you set. I guess that implementing notification is left to the designer of the theme, so some have them and some dont.
I can recomend designs from https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-7x/themes/stock-oreo-theme-v0-1-t3738855 , they work mostly.

if it is inbuilt theme (stock), it works fine.
other themes dont support
