Note 5 lock screen notification question - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Currently using 1Weather. I like how the current temp status at the top of my screen but when my phone is locked is always showing the weather like it is a constant notification and if I swipe it away the weather goes away at the top. I'm pretty good with this phone but this issue is goofy. Thank you for your time in advance!

hi,
if i understand correctly, you want your info in notification, but not on lockscreen.?
Take a look at Phone /Settings /Lockscreen and security /Notifications /.... then block individual app notifications permission on lockscreen.....?
Take a look at the screenshots. I think this would be the nearest solution for issue?
Good luck

Lock Screen Clock Bug 4.2.2

Does anyone else have this problem with the clock on the lock screen after the 4.2.2 update? Every other power cycle, it looks really different. Also when rotated, it looks normal. Yes I know the normal look is hours in bold and minutes in regular font, but this is something completely different. Yes I searched xda and google and could only find people having issues with the bold font. FWIW, I used adb sideload to install the update. Video below.
I'm seeing the same thing on my Nexus 4. When I turn the screen on the time is offset to the right and the hours are not bold. If I cycle the screen off and on again its back to normal.

I am using Dash Clock now. Way better than the standard lock screen.

Interesting. I haven't updated my N4 to 4.2.2 but I see no issues with it in 4.2.1. The N7 did not have this issue on 4.2.1. either. Anyone else having this issue? Maybe I need to reflash the update?

I wouldn't mind using another widget on my lock screen, but since I am connected to my companys exchange server, I need to put in a password which effectively locks me into using the stock clock widget. I am looking for a fix to this issue as it is bugging the crap out of me.
So I did some more testing and found out the bug only occurs if I have my MS Exchange account linked. If I remove the account the bug disappears. I tried this with every screen lock option (minus face unlock).
MountainDrew, are you also using the Email App for MS Exchange?
Noticed this as well, but I use deskclock as my main widget, so it doesent really mater

Someone has already started a bug report on this issue. Seems as it is 4.2.2 specific and not just device specific.

I have been using HD Widgets lock-screen widget for a long time but Dash Clock has definitely better usage.
Though HD Widgets has a beautiful look and more customization options..
Just personal preference. I personally just really dislike the way HD Widgets and Beautiful Widgets look.
Sorry guys but this thread is not a discussion about different widgets. Another bug report on google code has this issue correlated to the lock screen widget set by device administrator policy. This means the lock screen widgets are frozen and not changeable so any alternatives are essentially useless.

So you're saying the replacing lock screen clock with DashClock isn't possible, and those of that did must be imagining it?

Did you read any of my posts or the bug report at all? It is clearly explained that lock screen widgets are frozen if you have device adminstrator policy set (usually by a MS Exchage Server if you want to access work email). If I remove my MS Exchange account, I can do whatever I want and this bug goes away.

No. It's a pretty silly bug. Considering how awful the stock lock screen clock is, I would consider it an improvement.

Again, I do not have the option to change my lock screen widget because I use MS Exchange for work. I'm stuck with the stock clock widget and this bug is annoying. I would honestly rather have the weather there instead, but again...I am stuck with the stock lock screen because of my work email. Silly bug or not, it needs to be fixed.

I understand that. I'm saying I'd rather have the bug than having the awful bold font stock clock all the time.

I have changing clock too. But if i enable lockscreen widgets again (app lockscreen policy) it is working fine. So im pretty sure its because of lockscreen policy (deactivated lockscreen widgets)

how do you get a transparent background on dash clock?
on my home screen it's a translucent black background, like the calendar. want it transparent like stock clock

What status (notification) bar do you use?

I'm currently using Omega StatusBar but it's buggy at best. After enabling in accessibility settings I find that the counters are frequently incorrect, apps stick around after clearing notifications, and ongoing notifications don't play very nice.
Anyone using a statusbar with more success? Which one?
I'm looking for any which display icons for notifications rather than the vague circle with a number within it as present in the stock os. It's good to see what's going on at a glance without swiping down.

+1 want to know the best bar too xD
I wasn't even able to get Omega StatusBar to display notifications on my 8.9" HD. As soon as I turned on the "accessibility" option necessary for it to intercept notifications, I got a force close.
I've tried a couple of other status bar replacements from the Play store with the same results -- all fail turning accessibility on. I've seen reports of other 8.9" users having the same problem.
I would certainly like to hear of a working status bar that doesn't have this problem.
The stock status bar works.

You have to go to the Kindle's settings -> accessibility -> then turn on the option for Omega Statusbar accessibility.
From there you can turn on the accessibility within Omega's app. It might force close but it will work.
At that point when you open the Omega app you will want to hit the button on the top-right-most of the screen. It turns on the status bar. You should instantly see the statusbar pop up.
It doesn't always clear notifications though. I guess this is an android limitation with what gets sent to the accessibility api.
Hope that works for you.

Oh and if you're stock or stock rooted and you don't have accessibility settings within the Kindle's settings menu use KFHD Extended Settings to access it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2124384

Thanks, I got it working. It wasn't worth it, though. Wasn't much of a functional improvement, didn't look that much better, and the old status bar would show up in flashes now and then.
Maybe the stock toolbar isn't that bad...

Yeah.. And even moving to /system/app doesn't make a difference unfortunately. At least when the stock toolbar says 10 notifications, its really 10 notifications. I'm confident some ROM will get something stable going though, just a matter of time.

Is there a way to change the icons that show in the status bar without having to switch to an entire other status bar? I'm referring to the parental controls, wifi and battery icons that appear in the top right corner. I'd like to customize those. Possible?

Weather notification

Hey. I have aproblem related to the weather app. The htc one weather app aytomatically detects your location regardless of the state you have your settings at and this just annoys me every time i go somewhere(be it school or anywhere) a notification just shows up and i hate that. I wonder if there's any way to fix it.
Thanks

Notification Icons on Lollipop

This may not be possible but I figured that I'd ask anyway. Is there any way to get the notification icons that pop up on the status bar to be more like the KitKat icons? I've got some notifications that show up as a plain white square on my status bar ever since I upgraded to Lollipop a few months ago.
Let me give you an example of couple that I'm running into. I have the NASCAR Mobile app on my phone. I also have the 14News app (local news) on my phone. Anytime I get notifications from either of these apps, I get a plain white square on my status bar and I have to take the time out and look and see what it is. I'm wondering if it is something in the Motorola settings that I'm missing because I am also running Lollipop on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 (8") tablet and I don't have these issues on that device at all.
Any help that can be given to me on this would definitely be greatly appreciated.

I've never had Greenify on my Moto X at all. These apps that I was talking about are apps that I use and get notifications from several times per week and I'd like to be able to tell at a glance which app is giving me the notification on my phone.
By the way, I've marked both apps as priority and I still get the plain white squares on these app notifications.

then perhaps it's due to too many notifications (sometimes from the same app). I noticed that on some apps like fb. on other apps like scrabble, there is a number embedded on the notification icon.
i believe there is a setting to tell whether or not to group them together or not.
There isn't anything like that on my status bar at all.
Are you asking if its possible to change the notification icon style on Lollipop to that of KitKat/Jellybean then yes its possible with the use of some Xposed mods. If the notification icons themselves appear distorted due to some reason then I'm afraid there is something wrong with the apps perhaps. A screenshot or two would have been really helpful in getting a better understanding of your issue here.
If you're asking about notification ticker, there's a module for Xposed by the name of 'Enable Notification Ticker'. I have it installed myself.

It hides your notification information. Like texts. You will get a notification that you received a text but you will need to unlock the phone to read it.
