I'm running stock Android 7 Nougat on an LG Stylo 2 MS550, bootloader unlocked, rooted, and TWRP flashed on the recovery partition.
I'd like to change the icon for a few apps on my device.
I'd also like to change the app name both on the desktop and on the notification window that the OS makes pop up when those apps push notifications to my device.
Lastly, I'd like to change the notification icon that appears at the very top of my screen when a notification is pushed as well as the notification sound (the apps don't allow you to set your own).
How can I do this?
Thanks.
Any help, guys?

When I have my phone locked and I swipe down the notification bar to read my notifications, they dissapear if the app which is sendind the notification is opened and therefore I can't access the app from the notification bar like I normally would. ,
This happens if I was using the app and then I lock the phone; for example I text a friend using whatsapp, turn the screen off, he texts me back, I see the led blinking, swipe down the notification bar to access the app from there (while the phone is locked) but as soon as I do it the notification dissapears, is this a new behaviour on Kit Kat? I can't remember it was like this on jellybean
PS: I checked gravity box to see if it was something I changed, but it doesn't look like it :crying: , I'm running stock rooted kit kat
Two things come to mind: this Xposed mod, and Widgetlocker.

But I don't understand, is it a bug?
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
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.
I just recently loaded the Renovate Ice ROM, Magisk, and AT&T CSC onto my international N950F/DS and everything is working great.
I've noticed a small issue though. It appears like whenever I interact with a notification on my lockscreen (which is currently set at Swipe to Unlock) I must take an additional step to get access to the notification (specifically I have to "Swipe to Open") rather than having the lockscreen automatically open when I click the notification. It seems like this is peculiar to the AT&T CSC that I applied to the phone and I was wondering if anyone has figured out how to remove this extra step.
Thanks!
bump..same issue here
I recently upgraded to Oreo on my S8+ and have noticed that when I clear notifications from the top notification bar, it also removes the notification dot/bubble from the app icon. I can't seem to find a way to get the dot/bubble to stay even when the notification is removed from the top. Anyone know how to remedy this?
That's not a bug, it's a "feature", the evolution of android the most sh#$%y that really get's my nervs.
Use Nova launcher, downgrade to nougat or use "IOS". Besides that there is multiple reasons to do it ...
