Where is lolipop style incoming call banner - Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to enabled lollipop incoming call notification popup instead full screen Alcatel UI???

Hi, are you using the stock launcher ?
I can't remember how incoming calls looks like with it, but I'm using Apex now and I thinkI have the kind of notification you mentioned.
Maybe you should try with another launcher to see if it helps.

Hi, nope - I'm using nova and incoming call ui uses up whole screen.
I don't think it has anything to do with launcher.

My calls are displayed as small notification.. Maybe is your launcher

I noticed if you are using chrome it shows the banner but if you are at home screen or locked it will show full screen

Stock SMS App Problem

The problem started today when I received a text. I use handcent as my default SMS app, so I was surprised to see a grey text notification in my notification bar right next to the handcent notification.
I've had notifications and all other options turned off in the stock messaging app as well, so I don't believe that's where the problem is.
I'm running cyanogen 7 build #9 and have the minimalist theme in place if that matters.
Im having the same issue all of a sudden and I'm in the stock rom! I have all of the notifications off on the stock rom and it still pops up a notification and sound when i get a text! I'm using handcent too! Also my stock app is now not showing contact pictures anymore either. I just want to get rid of it and use handcent

Can getting a text wake the lock screen?

I'm really really used to MIUI and other roms that will wake the phone to show me a preview of the text recieved, even if the phone is locked. I tried using MiLocker, and the screen doesn't wake, nor does the SMS icon show me a preview of the message.
I'd really just like the screen to wake when I get a text.
Can anyone help? TIA.
I don't think so. Handcent is always an option.

Yeah I would use it if it wasn't so damn ugly.
You can set the lock screen style to Productivity. This won't automatically turn on the screen, but it will show you incoming previews of SMS, as well as email, appointments and calls (you can turn off any of those you like).
Get an app called SMS pop up, its perfect!

Does Android have an elegant/intuitive messaging app with Emoji support? All of these messaging apps are so goddamned ugly... Even chompSMS isn't attractive to me anymore
Hey that Notifier Pro IS a really good app for those of us coming from the iPhone that liked the IOS pop ups on the screen.
I just DL'd the free version to try it out and with the screen off, if you get a message, text email ect, the screen turns on for a few seconds and you get a short banner type message with a contact pic. Pretty cool.

[Q] SMS Notification Icon in Lockscreen ???

Hi guys, i was using a stock samsung galaxy S2 android and moved into something brilliant and way better ( Pure ICS ROM)
there is only 1 thing i miss from the touchwiz Galaxy s2, and it is the notification icon that you get when an SMS is received or when a phone call is received and you miss it.
I am talking about the red circle that popups on the lockscreen on stock samsung galaxy S2 for unread SMS and missed calls.
I would like to know if there is an app or apk that could bring that SMS/phone notification icon on the lockscreen once again. That was way nice to see if i missed a call clicking just 1 button.
The only thing that came close to that is an app called notifier pro plus, that creates a banner on the lockscreen, but it has some flaws, because sometimes you are using web browser and doing other things and the banner popups not only on the lockscreen but everywhere
nobody?
In ICS, the notification bar can be pulled down on the lockscreen, so you don't need them to show on the lockscreen. Just pull down your notifications.

You can buy widget locker and use any widgets on lockscreen

I have been searching around for a solution of the above question myself, and found that everyone keeps saying to use the notification bar etc - not really helpful, and doesn't answer the question
I found a free lock screen app called 91Locker which will display a notification for unread messages and missed calls on the lock screen, plus a few other nifty features
Hope this helps anyone else that comes this issue
Lockscreen notifications
Hi.
Nicolas from Productigeeky here, creator of NotifierPro.
You may want to try our last app LockerPro, it is a lockscreen replacement with stacking notifications.

notifications on lockscreen

i don't get any missed call / message notifications on the lock screen of my moto atrix 2. it just looks like this(type atrix 2 lockscreen in google images and see) ...
can any1 help? is it same for everyone?any app for the same?
Check and make sure you have notifications checked in the messaging and phone apps.

The stock text messaging app only displays notifications in the notification bar. If you want a pop-up message when you get texts then take a look at GO SMS... it's a great app.
Sane thing goes for missed calls. There will be an icon in the notification bar but that's it. I'm not sure if there are any apps to show a pop-up for missed calls...

Try MissedIt from google market. I use that with WidgetLocker.

Lockscreen Notifications

I remember having lock screen notifications using ICS on my old Xperia T. It would show text, Facebook, calls, etc on the lock screen.
Does anyone know a decent mod or app to use for enabling lock screen notifications?

Hi there been trying loads over the weekend, all the ios7 etc, an awful lot of them have flaws like letting access to the phone through the recent app button. there have been several plus sides as well. At the moment i have found this app "Echo Notification Lockscreen" on the play store. I have also added "iControl(IOS 7 Partner)" but again there were limitations not all the actions will work with this lock screen.
The ultimate which i've not managed was an IOs lock screen (that was actually secure) that let you reply to text messages (and others) without having to unlock the phone (1 app did that but wasn't secure).
Try to use Nils from Google play
Hi again, just a bit more info. I have had another go today at finding the best solution. several sms apps will display on the lock screen but then disapear after a set time, no good if you missed it as it arrived.
I have been playing with the Nils app before and I am unable to get contact pictures to display next to messages, even after trying several sms apps and being in touch with the developer.
But the best I've managed so far is as follows. A app called iOS 7 Lock Screen Theme by huntdevs gives a plain lock screen which can slide to reveal a pin code screen. On the plain screen you can then use NiLS Lockscreen Notifications by Roymam this will then display sms and other notifications on the lockscreen, these remain on the screen untill opened, even if the screen times out and is turned back on manually, furthermore you have the ability to reply to them from within the app whilst still locked.
Warning as I said earlier there is a facility to disable the home button but the recent app button is still active meaning that any apps used recently have the ability to be opened without unlocking the phone. Further more the pin lock screen gives you access to the emergenecy dial function and sadly again where as the default lock screen will only let you dial an emergency number, this app will let you see all of your contacts and further more dial any number you want!!
One final thing the ios7 locker does give you access to the functions of the Iphone from the slide at the bottom of the screen and for me the added advantage of this app over several of the others is that the phone function icon is missing (all be it available through the emergency function).
hope tihs helps.
I use NiLS. I purchased the pro version so i can customize it to my liking and for the ads not to draw my data. It works like a charm, instant, and looks almost stock.
I have attached an image for an example.

Hi there I see you have the same issue as I have experienced the App refuses to show the contact picture (unless of course you don't use them).
On a further note i have had to uninstall the iOS7 lockscreen, apart from the issues already mentioned, a big down side for me turned out that the app kills sound from the walkman app when the screen goes off, so listening to music, throwing to a sound bar or linking to a car Bluetooth are all muted. So again im back to stock lockscreen with just the Nils app over the top for indication only.
When i first installed the app it would show the users image. I didn't like it so I changed it to App Icon. Oddly, i tried to switch it tot he other 2 settings, and now it does't appear. .. oh well i am not really worried about it. I like the basic icon look instead of the pictures.

Is that how you have the default sony clock with the nils notifications in your picture?

The clock and lock screen is all sony stock. NiLS will just add the notification over whatever lock screen you have.
Will it work with a PIN locked screen? There's not much space for notifications actually so I wonder how it would look.

It doesn't the lock screen always starts maximized, Dash clock used to have the option to just have a padlock at the bottom of the screen so your information was always visible when turning on the phone but the latest version of that always starts with the lock pattern or number pad visible and you have to swipe down every time to view notifications and then back up again to unlock your device (there all a pain now with extra strokes needed to use them)

Odd, I know you can resize/change the location of the NiLS. When you have a NiLS message on your lock screen, tap and hold down on the notification to adjust (i had to adjust mine because when it was charging the notification would be on top of the charging percentage)
After installing again and play around I knew my original mistake. Just do not add nils as lockscreen widget. Let nils display notification automatically then I can resize.
BTW will this lockscreen feature notification be part of Android L? Just thinking on buying the nils pro version.
