Hello everyone,
I currently have my op7 pro for 2 weeks now, and I am not quite happy how some things look.
For example the lock screen, I don't like it, the way it blacks out the background when there are notifications, the notifications are also too big. And the clock doesn't look good to me.
Also, the quick settings, I like the quick settings of Samsung 8.0, and Oxygen OS 8.0 really much.
So, my question is, is there any way to get another lock screen on this device? And get the quick settings look and feel from Oxygen OS 8.0 or Samsung Experience?
Kind regards,
Crewz

Ok, so I love my new Honor 8...for $350, its about 10x better than my LG G5 ever was (the G5 is garbage). It does have a few quirks that bug me...
1. What is up with the old style notifications where the words scroll on top of the screen? The last time I had that, was when I had an LG Optimus V. How do I change this?
2. What is up with the weird notification icons? Like, instead of the facebook messenger icon showing up on the bar, I get a small square of my friends profile picture. What is up with this. and how do I go to more normal notification icons?
3. How do I disable default lock screen so I can use the one I set and stop having the old one show up?
Thanks guys!
1) Are you talking about Banner Notifications? If so, there's an option to turn those on or off on a per app basis with the other types of notifications.
2) If there is such an option I never found it.
3) Changing the Lock Screen style in the Huawei Themes app from "Magazine Unlock" should do it?

its common for EMUI 4.5 & 5
Hello,
I bought a smartphone (Coolpad Modena 2) with android 6.0 onboard for my grandma. I installed a launcher made espetially for seniors. It works really well. All buttons are big, all extra apps are blocked. But there are 2 things that bother me.
1. With a swipe down the screen you can open the notification dropdown menu. From there, you can easily access all phone settings. It makes it pretty easy to mess something up. It there a way to switch off the pulldown menu?
2. With a swipe up the screen the preinstalled ROM shows up a handy menu with settings like aeroplane mode, wifi on/of, priority mode. It looks really similar to the iOS control center. Again - it makes it way too easy for my grandmother to turn aeroplane mode on for example.
I was searching for a solution all day but didn't find anything. Maybe there is a custom ROM where you can disable this kind of menus? Maybe there is an other solution?
I will be glad for any help !

Greetings and welcome to assist. I'm not sure if you can disable it with a custom rom or root but you could try nova launcher. You can resize the icons with it and customize allmost all the gestures. It may be a bit more complicated to set up but when done should do the trick
Good Luck

Hey everyone,
I've just been wondering if they've improved the lockscreen notifications in 5.0? I bought the 6x a few days ago and I'm thinking of returning it due to the lack of options one has when dealing with notifications in the lockscreen. I can't even dismiss notifications in 4.1. Very annoying. Can anyone who has the 5.0 beta let me know if you can at least dismiss notifications from the lockscreen? Expanding them on the lockscreen would also be great. I've tried to look for info regarding this but there doesn't seem to be any info. Maybe that's because they haven't changed it at all. Either way, I'd love to know.
Thanks for any help, as this is the deciding factor for me as to whether I'll keep this phone or return it.
You can dismiss notification from the lockscreen by swiping in 5.0. Expanding is not possible AFAICT, just double tap to open.

You just have to give the permission for an app to display notifications, go to settings
In 4.1 as well, you can swipe left or right to remove notification. Make sure these are enable in lockscreen settings
EMUI 4 don't lockscreen notifications like EMUI 5 (visually)
Hey guys i cant seem to be able to change my lockscreen on my s7 running nougat. I installed acDisplay and it worked but would then go to the samsung lockscreen. Any one know how to disable or change it. On other phones there was an option for this in default apps this phone doesnt have this.
Thanks in Advance.
I have a related question: I have an app that changes my wallpaper every day, but it doesn't change the lock screen wallpaper. In previous android phones there was a setting to have the lock screen be whatever the home screen is, how do I accomplish this on Galaxy S7?
i'm using oneplus 6 with stock ROM. i'm using always on display and really love it. but i've got a problem with the notifications.
notifications appear on the screen and stays 4 or 5 seconds and then gone. i love seeing the notification on the screen without touching anything but it lasts in just 5 seconds. isn't there are setting to change this ? except for installing a custom ROM ?
sorry i just figured out that it isn't AOD that i love. it is lift-up display. unfortunately oneplus does not allow us to use AOD with software update, now knowing why.
but my question is still valid. is there a way to change the notification showing duration on the screen while screen is off ?

Yes there is! I use the Substratum Theme "OnePlus AOD Modifier" on OP6 with OOS 9.0.2. It allows you to set the notification time and also the lift up time.
