As the title says.
I am tired of finding an app which will bring back the Silent mode in Lollipop, nothing works, including the one which was released earlier today claiming about bringing Silent mode back, SoundHUD, it does not work on my Note 3.
So I am asking this here, in case there is an app and I don't know it.
Again, I have a Galaxy Note 3, so if there's an app which works on a Nexus or those type of devices doesn't mean it will work on mine.
I 2nd this. I want a solution for this as well. App/Script/Hack/Mod.....whatever.

Yeah, I know. It's kinda weird that there's no app or mod for this so far, L is released pretty much for over a month now!
Hit the volume button, then none? It will put the phone in interruption mode and silent. You can even choose when it will go back to sound mode in case you forget to change it back.

Check this article http://www.androidauthority.com/soundhud-lollipop-silent-mode-589336/ Haven't tried it I'm on KK so don't ask, i just remembered i saw it and thought it might do the trick for you.
Apparently, Samsung agrees with us here! The new Sound/Notification/Interruption features suck ballz. They will be fixed immediately in an incoming update rolling around the world.

First of all that will disable all sorts of notifications, I mean the display won't pop up, there will be no LED and most importantly the Alarm sound will be silent too, LOL.
Google is a genius.

Yeah, thanks for mentioning that, but you might have missed my original post. In case any one else gets excited about that app, well let me tell you, it does absolutely nothing. The dev should bugger off honestly.

Thanks for these, I have seen these articles, but as you can see its for S5, but I would like the update on my Note 3 too, I hope they will release it soon.

What the hell's up with this? It's been happening ever since I got the phone, gradually getting worse. Nowadays it doesn't let me write the two letters next to one another, period.
"vicle"
"bavior"
Etc.
Have you tried using a new keyboard?
Ugh, I had the same problem.
I messed with all the settings, auto correct settings, i tried different keyboards, i tried changing languages, i tried hitting it, i tried telling at it, I tried clearing the cache on everything.
Nothing worked.
Nothing at all.
I HATE Huawei. Fix your damn bugs!
The ONLY solution, is a complete factory reset. There is nothing else you can do.

Afraid it's not limited to the keyboard. It's on a system level. Apps and whatnot with the words display them incorrectly.
This may be a common issue I reported in another post. If you have Google Gboard installed try uninstalling the update. It will revert to stock Google Keyboard. This fixed weird keyboard issues for me.

Nope. This is on a system level.
Factory resetting my phone is not something I'm willing to do right now.

Well, you're SOL then, because a factory reset is your only option.
Trust me, I tried absolutely everything to get it to work. Nothing did.
You'll at minimum have to root it, which will involve a wipe anyway.
So save your stuff and take some time off in a weekend, or live with it.
Either way, I'm sure you'll be in the same boat as me when you say this will be the last Huawei I'll ever buy. These bugs are inexcusable, and going months whithout a fix is even worse.

Yeah. I'll do so over the weekend. It's just a pain having to backup all of my stuff.
I'll definitely be looking elsewhere for my next smartphone. As if the denial of releasing the kernel for the Honor 8 to get stable custom ROMs wasn't enough. Great phone otherwise. 'tis a shame.
Do you use the default font? I remember some theme here in XDA that has a bugged font. Didn't let me type "e" and "h" normally until I changed back to the default font
That was it. I no longer have an issue with typing "e" and "h." Thanks, you're a life saver!
Strange little bug though.
That's really strange. I'm not using the default font, but that only started happening after a few months of using it.
Also, after factory wiping, it started working fine again, but I'm using the same custom font now and it's working fine.
What the hell?

Hi
Weird problem with my device (3 months old), after playing for a while with the device it suddenly starts to make these weird choppy and laggy scrolling every 3 seconds, like it is doing something in the background, i see it when scrolling, when playing, when facebooking or anything else.
I downloaded apps to see if the CPU is workng without touching it, couldnt see anything in the background unless i touched the phone.
Can it be something bad within the Oreo 8.1 code? This is really ruin the user experience i have with it, making it work sometimes likek my old Meizu or even worse.
It goes awaay after rebooting, or after a while by itselfe.
I clean the RAM always, i stopped lots of permission apps to work in the background but cant see the difference.
Any suggestions?
I also had this problem. It completely disappeared when I made a software update.
I think it was temporarily fixed by turning on "deactivate HW-Overlays" in the developer settings. However, as far is I've read, this could decrease battery performance.
Greetings
Thanks ill try it, but i do have the 8.0 version** after an OTA update after i got the phone..
Well i came back to say this tweak works!
It wont get choppy anymore..thanks!

I did exactly what metaxuss instructed me to do, you need to open the Developer mode and right after look in the search button on the Settings for HW overlay, turned it on and now it works like a charm, i hope they will fix it under the next update..

I have found that to happen too, but its a quick fix,
really shame that HTC wont solve this, and why would it happen only on our devices?
Same problem for me. If I disable the option, it looks better as you said but Netflix does work anymore (sound, subtitles ok but no display)...
So I'm waiting for a fix from HTC
Update of htc u11+ stopped almost 6 months ago 0 update, shame on htc
still problem not solve

Could be one of the adaptive battery settings; known troublemakers. This feature though has eluded me for over a year on the 10+ And not a clue why even after spending a bunch of time playing with it

I tried that apk on the 10+ running on Pie, no joy and that apk itself was a real bloody pain.... grrrrr.
For whatever reason(s) edge lighting has never worked. I could try playing with it again... last couple times were a waste of time.
Probably a apk conflict or settings issue but I never found it... meh.
OP, Thanks for reminding me of this gremlin
Hope you find a solution here as it may backwards applicable.

That function edge lighting was a mess since my note 9 days. Seems like not much has changed.

Lol, that's reassuring. A long history of fail.
I just looked over my settings and it should be active.
Damned if I see it anymore (it works for a couple days once, long, long ago).
I reset it to factory load, the only possible option left; no power management is active.
I'll double check my blocked apks just for amusement.
Guess I'll wait and see if this takes:laugh:

That function has always been a major fail. So much so that I have it off ( phone wise ) .
Opposite of the OOS 11 , the horizon light works everytime for notifications

Bah-ha-ha-ha... it never uses any battery (yes, well) so I completely forgot it was enabled.
Guess it could be one of the mystery apks under Android Services sucking battery though.
Thanks for reminding to pull it's plug!

Zippo raid it be for sure.
I have something like 86 blocked apks now. All but 6 or so of those are never needed. Lol, less run time, less trouble.
Sometimes with new apps I'll block them until I sort them out or throw them out.

I remember them breaking it with one of the major S9 updates, I think Oreo? It worked fine for me before that, never since
Seems to work with OneUI 3.0 beta now

As usual.
They like to finish off an OS (and phone) at the end. The lame duck phenomenon
If I try to put an app (from recent apps screen) in split window, nothing happens: the option is there, but clicking on it does nothing.
Popup mode works fine.
Any options I have to enable?
It seems is an apk I have disabled, but not sure which one: if I re-enable all it works...
Gotta try one by one out of 95 disabled APKs :-(
Found it: it was appsedge
