Hi guys
I have a rooted 8.4 on lollipop using Nova Launcher at the moment.
I was wondering..is there any possible way to remove the carrier from the top left corner
of the screen??
Also on the lockscreen..is it possible to remove/hide the red answer call icon that you
swipe when there is an incoming call??
Id like my tab to be almost totally blank and clean on the lockscreen.
Thanks!!!

Hey, just a few things I'd like t clarify before I buy the One. These are basically things I couldn't test in the store
Regarding the shortcuts on the lock screen:
If you have a password/swipe/face/watever to unlock your phone, is this bypassed when using the apps? i.e. if I have my gmail link there, can someone slide up on gmail and get straight in, or does it require a password. And if so, does it then also require a password when sliding the camera?
Regarding notifications:
Say you have a notification from facebook in the notifications slider at the top of the screen. Does Sense 5 allow you to swipe that notification away, like stock android does?
Killing applications:
On my galaxy nexus, there is the button that looks like two overlapping squares, that brings up a list of recent apps. Is there something similar to this in Sense 5?
Cheers

that would be a major security flaw ! it's not the case.

yes, double tap home for recently used apps, swipe them away. done
Brilliant, thanks for the quick reply

These are some easy questions, I'll answer the best I can

I haven't used other locks beside the swipe, but it does seem that swiping the icon up in the drawer will jump right to it.

Yes, it is a swipe to the right.

What you are talking about it "multitask" and yes, if you double tap the HOME button, you'll bring up the multi-task menu where you can swipe apps away. FYI, this is *not* the same as a task killer.

I have seen this on both the G900 and 870, remember in kitkat, you would get the little notification icons on the top bar? I've noticed they're gone. I know we get the notifications on the screen now. But, I was wondering if there's a way to get the icons back in addition or supplemental to the new notifications on screen. I noticed the icons do still come up if you're on your home screen of a different app. Sorry if this is a silly question, but figured I'd ask on here and see what happens.Thanks!
That's just the way Lollipop is unfortunately and there doesn't seem to be any way to change it that I have found.
Hi,
We recently upgraded our AT&T Moto X to 5.1 and the lockscreen is causing us issues. We used to be able to just swipe the screen to unlock but now the phone and camera shortcuts launch when swiping from the sides. I'm forced to swipe up only to unlock.
I tested this on a Galaxy S6 and the shortcuts only seem to work if swiping directly from the corner icon (phone or camera) not the entire side of the display. Is there a way to mimic this without losing the Active Display?
Thanks,
pt
No way to stop the lockscreen from working this way?
Hi, I just switched from Samsung Galaxy S8 to Huawei P30 pro.
What I miss 'till now is:
1) HD calls (Vo LTE) are they available?
2) phone with caller ID and spam protection: what do you suggest?
3) swipe down to open notification bar (edge gesture just installed works fine)
4) home with drawer: in drawer I see icons ordered by name with vertical scrolling. No way to create folders, move icons and have pagination?
5) seems stupid but was very useful: in Galaxy you can use a tool to take a partial screenshot and keep it floating on the screen. Useful p.e. if you have to write down info from a business card you photographed.
1- working for me
2- depends on where u at, where i live i used true caller till it got blocked
3- install 3rd party launcher
4- same as 3
5- use your knuckles, youtube it to learn how it is done
Thanks.
About screenshots: I can take screenshots using knuckles, I can save a partial screenshot,but I can't make it floating in the screen. You know how to do that (tried to search with no success)
You can split the screen by drawing from left to right with a knuckle across the middle of the screen. Place the screenshot in one half and your app in the other.
Once you take the screenshot, just click the small image of it on the bottom left, it will display it full screen so you can view it, or edit it.
Thanks all, but this do not reply to my question.
If you ever tried galaxy screenshot floating function you should. It's very useful!

Hey, i did the same switch.
Which app do you use for swipe down for notifications?
Playstore link?
Thx in advance
This one is good: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.de_studio.recentappswitcher.trial
But finally I reintroduced the bottom bar with fourth button to show notifications
Emui is the best(for me) , just give it some time. Samsung experience is the reason I never go with galaxy devices(my wife has s9)
I installed Nova Launcher (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.launcher) as soon as I set up my P30 Pro. It'll take care of your #3 and 4 concerns.
hi everyone. is there a way to keep the Navigation Bar on S10 from hiding itself in apps like Snapchat and just make the bar be visible permanently? Ideally would like to reduce the screen size to end at the Nav Bar top border and not having a Nav Bar as overlay, if that makes sense. thanks!
Nova can do that I'm sure

i have Nova installed. i was unable to find an option for that. i did find a somewhat of a work around and that was by installing Good Lock app from galaxy apps and then adding on a One Hand Operation+ extension to it. i can swipe from the edge side and have nav buttons pop up that i can sticky. its not the best solution, but it works. kinda disappointed that for a $900 phone you can't customize it.. AND they removed led notification lights.. wtf
