I'm on Tmobile. Don't have that screen. So maybe it's in the settings somewhere of your carrier?

Not on my Sprint variant.

Anyone has this problem or can suggest something? Anything? It's killing me.

You could start by providing more detailed information. What carrier? What third party apps do you have that relate to contacts/phone?

My phone is Verizon but I use it with T-Mobile. I've looked up all the apps that has access to my contacts and draw over apps and didn't find anything unusual.
I use truecaller but that one has it's own notification.
The picture I attached in my first post shows what is really bothering me

I have Verizon and don't get this

Well finally after a lot of research and tracking apps I finally found what app it is. It's call (efing) reminder app. That is a part of bixby I guess.

Flashlight
Plagued me for 2 weeks and removed apps one by one. As others suspected, it was a flashlight app. It's gone now. App has an icon that several apps use, so I don't remember precisely which one. Not going to reinstall one to be sure. Light House Inc has this icon.

Its App Backup and restore. Uninstall that and the annoying after phone call popups are gone

Had same problem. After uninstalling app backup and restore, everything fine.

I also had same problem but solved it by uninstalling "Bestie".
I also double checked it again after installing and uninstalling again.
Hope it helps.

App backup & restore fix
Hey everybody. I came across this thread when I was trying to fix this issue on my phone. I saw that nopers said if you uninstall the app it will go away which I'm sure would definitely work. I wanted to keep the app tho so this is what I did:
Settings>Applications>App backup and restore>Permissions>slide phone and SMS off
This worked for me on Samsung Galaxy S7 so hope that helps anyone looking for a solution.

A "find phone" app other than "Antivirus" by AVG

Does anyone know of a "find phone" app other than "Antivirus" by AVG?
That one has a function in it called FindR which does the find-phone function, but I have a major fail with the app.
I accidentally entered the wrong email address to log in to the online control panel, and instantly it threw this at me:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Unfortunately, the instructions cannot be followed.
There is no FindR option at settings>tools>FindR !! And no other place to re-enter email address that I can find. So, I no longer have any access to the tracking function. (Yes, I have emailed them. No answer in 36 hours.)
Is there any other app that does this function?
I use Lookout. They also have an app called Plan B that you download AFTER you lose your phone.
"where's my droid" is also useful as it's good for locating your phone even when it's on silent.

Oops, I wasn't clear...I am talking about finding/locating it after stolen or lost.
where's my droid has a function that from another phone you text a code like "gps" and it gets the coordinates and sends them back to you. Has to be outside though.

yes, where's my droid can be used for this as well. for instance, I have mine set to give me the GPS coordinate when I text it the code "GPS where you at?" plan b performs a similar function but only works as long as your google account is still sync'd to the phone
Phonelocator pro is another one.

This.
There's also an app called Where's My Droid which lets you trigger an alarm on your phone or locate it via GPS via SMS.
Prey is another good one.

[Q] How to disable "X messages" on lock screen?

Hi guys,
I have an issue that may be a PEBKAC issue, but I use Go SMS Pro instead of the stock Messaging app. When there is a new message for me the lock screen displays it like this ...
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
... which is nice enough, BUT! Problem is, even after I read the messages in Go SMS Pro, the notification stays on the lock screen until I open the stock Messaging app. ...which is not nice
Does anyone know how I disable this functionality?
I'm on MoDaCo Fr12 (not the vanilla one).
I've had the same problem in the past but now I use the stock sms program because of a hard reset. I haven't reinstalled go sms but I think I'll do it, but only if this problem will be solved with the next releases of the program.
I think you have to contact the Go dev team and ask if they can solve the problem because I think "GO SMS" app could reset the internal stock sms counter. Probably they have to adapt the program to the LG 2X behaviour.
Hej Hooolm
This is not the answer to your problem, but another way to get rid of it...
I had same problem cause I used GO sms as well. I still use GO sms, but now I use widgetlocker as my lockscreen. You can customize your lockscreen in any way you want... Much better than the stock. You should check it out

Have you disabled Notifications in the stock Messaging app?

I have the same problem.....
Any Dev know how to get rid of it?
I have the same annoying issue. I disabled the notifications too.....
I ended up baking a version where I replaced LG's sms app with the stock Android one. That functionality doesn't exist in stock
(Well, actually I ended up handing my handset back in to the carrier, telling them it is crap, and demanding another one. Waiting for my Galaxy SII now.)

[Q] Received SMS not visible

Good afternoon to you all, I have some weird poblem. I was making a online payment, for safety the bank sends me a SMS with a verification code. While waiting for the SMS I went to the messages on the phone. This is what I see now:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And:
Restarting didn't help this morning, another SMS with verification code did not pop-up the other invisible one. Reset/flash only option left?
Thanks for all the help in advance

Maybe you can start with something less invasive: do a backup of your sms-es (oand whatever) with some backup app (e.g. MyBackup Root works for me very well, but AFAIR LG also provided some backup appy in the original rom) then open settings/applications/manage applications/all and look for the sms/mms appy. Click it and then try stopping the app and then clear cache and data. Then bring back your smses from the backup ...
BTW, do you use stock sms application or some third-party one (e.g. Go SMS Pro, or Handcent)?
Already tried that. Stopping the 2.3.4 Berichten (Messages) service. It's the stock SMS program by LG.
Clearing cache and such. Still the stupid "1" stays and the message is not removable. Tried selecting all SMS and delete it. It deletes all but the invisible SMS.
Maybe LauncherPro will get rid of this. Something to try in the coming days.
Hmm, LaucherPro didn't change a thing. So a reset looks like the only option. bah.
Got the same problem - FIXED
I got this same bug recently. I got it fixed by this app in play store: Reset Unread SMS by Kamosoft :good:
In my case it happened like this: I had stock SMS app open, because I waited Google 2-step auth SMS... well message received but nowhere to be seen After that every other message has been received correltly but that one was like a ghost - notification always said that 2 unread, but I can only find one... No soft resetting fixed this, but that app did find it instantly. I use Samsung GT-i9100 with Chameleon ROM.

OK Google detection options grayed out (sometimes)

On every rom I've tried so far, the OK Google voice command sometimes works from the lock screen, sometimes not. When I go to check the settings for voice control, the"Always on" and "Personal results" are grayed out and obviously I can't use OK Google from the lock screen. But then sometime later the options are back and no longer grayed out. It works when it wants to and I have no control over it.
Is this a known bug? Or is there some custom rom setting that's interfering with voice detection? Very strange.
I thought it depended on whether the device was charging or not

No it doesn't. The Nexus 6 has the always listening feature like the Moto X. It's just weird that's been broken on 3 different roms.

Anyone have an issue where the 1st time you initiate the okay Google command that it brings up an unsuccessful web search? I have to initiate it a second time and it works. If I uninstall the Google search update everything works fine. Only when I update it do I run into this issue.
try wiggling these toggles? might help?

Actually yes, I have done that. But it's only a temporary fix. I don't see why, after wiping my device 3 times, and it still keeps happening. When I switch roms, I make sure to do a complete wipe from twrp (factory reset, then advanced and hand select wipes except internal storage, then wipe cache and dalvik before reboot into new rom) I don't understand why 3 different roms have the same issue.
At this point, I'm so happy with Candy rom that I can overlook this issue, but it's just nice if everything would work as intended.

One UI Update, Contact Information lost.

Hi,
I run a small business and therefore need to save little pieces of information about contacts but not save them as contacts if that makes sense before the update the default Samsung contacts app allowed me to do this and set a but of information about the contact without saving them. I used this for referring to customers etc. Since the update this has all been deleted!
Has anyone got any idea how to fix this without reverting back.
Thanks in advance.

I suspect it might be part of the many, many changes Samsung has made to their various apps and their functionality. If something seems different, doesn't work how it used to before, or is just simply gone, I would chalk up to one of the changes they made. I think it would be better or easier to try and find something else that can do the same thing or similar.
