Just updated the description, new apk out, this one adds ARCA crash reporting so I can get to the bottom of that CM12 bug.

Hi, does it come with popup notification with quick reply?

Love the design. Personally like it over all. Custom colors per person would be great and maybe being able to change the vibration. Cause the vibration is a kinda to little. That and notifications don't clear unless I reread the conversation.

Popup "Chat head" notifications are a planned feature. Been working on this for about 5 weeks privately and plan to continue as long as there is support.

Couldn't replicate the bug on my end, but I think I've fixed it in version 0.9.2, can you confirm?

I confirm

From the screenshots it looks like a beautiful app. I haven't downloaded it yet but I plan on giving it a whirl, I see that it only supports mms with verizon, does that mean that group messaging works with it as well as of right now?

@TimboMachimbo
can you make a list of the known bugs ?
because I have a few, but may be you already known them.
EDIT : sometimes I have FC. I send you right now a bug report.

I just updated the known bugs list. This includes planned features because not having them is a bug

Notifications not working at all. No sound or anything in the notification bar. Beautiful app though. Using moto x original on Verizon.

Bugs in visual tweak :
- Not all colors can be set for Sender Bubble (yellow for example).
- No color can be set for Receiver Bubble, always green.
- (screenshot)The shape for the colors' choice isn't round (why not) but a check to see what color is activated could be practical.

Build 0.9.4 in OP.
Anyway, fix is OK. Just a remark concerning the colors, some colors are twice time (or very close) : grey, dark orange, purple, blue.
And other colors are missing, pink for example.
And a detail, the choice of colors is not well centered in the white square.

Sorry for all the crash reports sent
Another little bug, a icon in the notification bar appears during the sending of message (see screenshot)

I'm prioritizing stability over appearance right now.
The end game is to include modular theme support so the theming community can get involved, maybe create some jobs

[Personal Review] Galaxy S7 edge Nougat beta firmware

Hi guys here you have a proper review of the Nougat firmware for the S7 edge based on my personal experiences.
So I installed it yesterday night via odin thx to @laimonas777.
With my own experiences I can say it is not as nice as I had thought.. It's hard to use, it's full with small bugs and delays and sometimes it can even freeze up to 30 seconds (My experiences).
Every app has got the new GraceUI of the Galaxy Note 7 including the settings app.
One of the best Nougat features, the display scaling option has got "only" 2 different options which do not differ that much from the standard option.
Let's talk about the Notification panel. You now have 6 toggles visible at the top but you cant swipe anymore. When you pull the statusbar twice you will see 9 toggles per page. Its much harder to find one toggle you are searching for because of the 3 toggle pages. On Marshmallow all toggles were visible in one "page".
Also the colors could have been better but I think everyone has its own opinion there.
Something which is also weird is that you have a search bar on the notification panel but actually you cant type anything in there. Instead, this textfield will just open the finder app.
The camera has got newer options and a totally different but perfect UI which I really like. But the new color modes are actually not that important features and were also aviable partially in 6.0.
Lets move on to the recent apps panel, which is a big pain.. The recent items got taller just like in stock nougat but the scrolling is a very big pain. Its just as the android nougat developer preview 1 for nexus devices also there are some minor graphical glitches which I have shown in the video.
Another thing I want to mention are the notifications. And yes, they are ugly but i am sure samsung will fix that. On every notification where you can tap for an action (example whatsapp, to reply) is a grey bar, which looks horrible. You can see it in the attached ss
Performancewise it hasnt got big changes but dont forget the delays when opening some specific apps etc. The battery consumption is also a bit higher but all these will get fixed with the final build (hopefully).
But now lets talk about the positive things :silly:. The Multiwindow option has got much better than it was on all other touchwiz versions, in short, its almost the same as in stock android nougat. Another thing which is perfect is the Window apps mode where you can open apps in window mode. We all know how bad this option was in Touchwiz, maybe no one of you ever have used it but now the window mode is very good and snappy. The negative thing there is that you cant deactivate these both modes anymore. So always when you try to pull down the notification panel from the right or left top corner, it will just open the current app always in window mode which is quite annoying.
And something which is annoying like hell is that if you play a game like doodle jump where you dont need to touch the screen the screen always turns off after a while. So the auto screenoff option doesnt get disabled while playing games or (maybe) even while watching a movie.
Galaxy Labs is now removed, so now you cant get all apps on your homescreen and you cant hide the appdrawer.
Remember that this is a very early beta build, and all of these bugs are normal and wont be there in the finale build.
Here is a quick video about the update to see how it looks

What about a dark theme...it was rumoured that Android N will have a dark theme not only that light one. Also the existing themes in store (for Samsung) work properly on N or not?

Keep in mind this is the frist beta released from samsung, so some things might hopefully change by the release of the final firmware. Also, you do have scaling other than going through the developer options. Go to Display -> Font and you will get to cgoose both the Screen zoom (which is set to almost huge idk why) and of course the font size. This comes to be as tha Normal and Condensed options back from marshmallow.

Hey glad to help. nice rview my friend. . :good:
P.S What happened to the hand?

I'm using the ota build and its running lovely to be fair
Touchwiz is rubbish anyways and just install nova which makes Icons smaller

Hello, thank you for great review. Could you confirm one exciting feature of android 7 (atleast for me) that it works on this phone beta software.
As of Android 7.0 phone can read 2G/3G/LTE frequency without ROOT. Easiest way is to install app Cellmapper(mapping cell towers to map) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cellmapper.net.cellmapper&hl=en
Could you run this app and post screenshot while connected to LTE only(no wifi)? Also, maybe send debug report from settings menu to developer with screenshot.
Thank you

Strange review .... I have been using it also since yesterday, and it is faster and smoother then my MM stock ...
Agreed there is some laggs when double tapping the multi tasking bouton, but overall its snapier and more responsive.
Also I have not noticed any freeze. I find this beta very polished to be honest.
Have you done a full wipe before installing ? or OTA ?

Thank you. Does not seem to report more info than in android 6.0.1. If you see LTE band reported on Cellmapper screen you can make another screenshot, but it seems that this functionality might not be there.

It's not a review, it's a rant. I literally have no issues with it, no freezes what so ever, it's actually snappier than MM.

I think the 'review' tag should be removed from this thread or it should be locked, as it is full of false information and the corrections to that false information have been given, but the 'review' hasn't been updated. If people read this thread thinking it is accurate, they will get false information.
The comment about display options, for instance, is just the OP not knowing what to do. It's not something wrong or an option that has been removed, it's just a lack of knowledge.

Yeah, I don't get that with any app. The only thing a bit laggy is the "new window" tab animation in the browser and the notification bar. Apart from those two things, it is fine.

Hmm, basically none of the ROMs is stable. They all have GPS reboot bug, poor camera and due to no hardware composition support you'll face serious lags in video streaming (especially 60fps videos on YouTube)

for the clock/statusbar thing u can try this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.treydev.msb
for the buttons i would search for something like HW remapper, button remap, etc...
i failed for trying to remap navbar buttons, ... (xposed additions not usable i guess in actual android 7.0 emui 5.)
i'm missing some things too, for example i use "Cool Tools" for display actual date in (on top of) statusbar. look screenshot.

Nope. GPS will give you issues but changing it to Battery Saving mode will fix them. Apart from it, everything works including fingerprint and the smart key button.
(And if you do flash it make sure you flash the latest version of Lineage before flashing crDroid)

I'd say have a try with crDroid.

Display Notification icons [Settings] [No Root] [No App]

[Update]: Turns out this is a new feature in MIUI 10 8.10.18 global beta.
To enable go to settings->notifications->show incoming notifications
Please ignore the below.
-------------------------------------------------------------
This is my first post, please don't mind any amateur mistakes.
I was going through the settings and found that turning off MIUI optimisation in developer settings will enable notification icons getting displayed in clock region.
I have tested this in MIUI 10 8.10.18 beta version. It'll be good if few people can test this in stable version and post the results.
Procedure
1) Enable developer options by clicking MIUI version 7 times.
2) go to Additional settings->Developer options.
3) Scroll to the end and disable MIUI optimisation.
Optional
1) Disable notify about high risk features. This will turn off annoying notifications stating to enable MIUI Optimisation.
2) Set the display size to small for better looks.
Below are the screenshots of the settings and the notification icons getting displayed.
Please feel free to comment your opinions.
Cons:
Need to provide app permissions again for few apps.
Some of the UI won't look good (limited to app info and settings app) trade-off

Reserved

Already did it , but still show clock instead of notifications icons?
and also unable to remove high risk feature notification.

I have not done any modifications. Maybe something is wrong.

I'm on 8.10.18 and notifications are displayed normally inside clock region. I didn't fiddle around with any settings, just updated and set up my own region (Croatia), everything is working as it should finally.

Pie multitasking

Hey guys I was wondering about the Pie update specifically multitasking I've noticed that in pixel phones you get live apps in multitasking screen and I was really excited for this feature but I just got my oneplus oneplus 6 2 weeks ago and I and I was surprised that it wasn't implemented so does anyone have an idea why it was cut out or even if its coming later in an incremental update?
Thanks in advance loving the phone btw

Do you mean copying from multitasking? Indeed I can't make it work but it doesn't like a huge absolutely needed feature.
Or do you mean having suggested apps at the bottom? I've actually never seen this feature on any other videos. Maybe it was only in the previews but it wasn't kept in final Pie?

If you use the classic navigation buttons (back / home / recents), do you know that double tapping recents allows you to switch to the last app. I'm sure you'll find it as convenient if not more!

Copying text from recents is a Google Pixel exclusive, no other phone has it. The only way to get it on other devices is to install Lawnchair along with Lawnstep, where this feature is/will be available (they were planning to add it, not sure if that happened already though).
EDIT: Ooor just use a custom ROM supporting this feature, should there be one.
