nope no themes, i change everything one at a time from wallpaper to icons. recently iv added beautiful widgets and i believe it started after that. but why would beautiful widgets make an alert icon pop up in the status bar?

Definitely looks like a Handcent notification.

how do i get to handcent and am i able to remove or turn it off??

Handcent is a messaging app, you'll see it in your app drawer ... If its there uninstall it ... Or use it I prefer it just turn off notifications in one of them.
If that's not it ... Then idk try instead of clearing the second one click on it and see what app it opens?

nope, no Handcent app in my apps.
its a notification alert when i get a text. when i pull down the status bar and "click" it it opens up my messages but once ive viewed my text it stay up there and i have to clear my notifications to have it go away. its a nuisance.

strange 10 char

It's Beautiful Widgets 2. Uninstall it and everything should be back to normal.

Turn off Screen Wake on SMS?

Is there anyway to turn off the screen wake on SMS? Can't find the option. Also tried downloading Hoverchat (NinjaSMS) that didn't work as well.

Have you tried going into Messaging -> Settings -> Notifications and disabling the Pop-up Display or the message previews for the lock screen to see if that turns off screen wake?

Yup. All notifications are off. I can't believe they left out such an option like this.

What about trying a new messaging app?

Just tested it and Textra will not turn on the screen if it's set not to.

I noticed that too on stock messenger, I have pop off in notifications. Note sure why it should wake or why you can't even turn it off with the notification led.

I use hangouts as my default messaging app now and it does not turn on the screen. I would like to use messaging, but why leave that feature out as well as the home button waking the screen in my pocket, it drives me nuts.

Use 8sms, you won't regret it!

If you are rooted, install Xposed and download Wanam. There is an option to unhide that feature so you can disable it.

And, since this is just revealing the hidden option rather than hooking in and adding the functionality itself, your choice persists even if you remove wanam and xposed.

I can confirm the wanam option does work, I havent turned it off though cause I want the screen wake. There is also a thread about this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785118

I did the same thing but I don't have the screen on option. Any suggestions?

I just turn my phone over so it don't wake me at night lol sorry That's my only suggestion for u.

thanks for the xposed solution. that was really bugging me

I use Ringo Pro from the app store. This allows me to let this app control all ringers and text sounds and then you can go into the actual programs and TURN OFF all notifications... this plus a SECOND lock screen has finally slowed down the pocket calls to 911 and an array of miss hit buttons...
This is my only complaint with this phone. Pocket dialing and button pushing is killing me..lol this has helped some

Fellows "Blocking Mode" takes care of this. Just set it up its free & comes on phone.
Unlock Bootloader on SM-870A At&t..

this solves it

Where did S Planner go?

I really liked being able to write directly onto my calendar, but what happened to it?

right next to S Health. loll
I like it because it changes with my theme. using Google Calendar is just as easy to use as S Planner is though. it's too bad there isn't a widget for it though. I still always end up using Jorte as usual.

I agree. Also Snote and splanner are not the same unfortunately as you were trying to reference

AT&T in the U.S. renamed it Calendar but it's still S Planner. If it's completely missing it might be a regional thing. Use an app like Shortcut Maker and see if you can find it in your phone's apps and activities. It may be there but hidden and you can use a shortcut to you make to launch it.

I see calendar and it's fine, just your typical Google cal. I've searched all my apps (I am on Verizon by the way) and there is no s planner. There is no button at the top or anywhere for screen write. I'd imagine I could get the .apk from an at&t device, no?

If you're talking about being able to add hand written comments on week view that's gone. A casualty of Samsung's de-bloating efforts. You can still ink but it's not as broad as it used to be. For example, if you press a date on the calendar with the S Pen this pop-up appears. You can handwrite your meeting in to it but it auto-coverts to text.

Do you have Facebook messenger opened with a chat going? Or perhaps another app like that? I always have to remove the "chat head" from my screen when I get that message.

when I get it, I usually jump to settings, app permissions and setting the permission there. That almost always works.

Same anoying thing here. I had to Disable everything to make other apps work. I even had to change the message app to get around this issue. Hope so done finds a solutio. For that annoying issue

, put the phone in Safe Mode and then when it restarts you can do whatever you need to do if the apps and then take it out of safe mode

i have to disable All in One Gestures, grant permission, then re enable All in One Gestures.

Is this what you mean by screen overlay? Everytime I get a notification while my screens on it's hidden in the background, only a portion of it pops up until at the very end it pops up but then it disappears and I can't even read it.

i dont think you can. You also cant turn screen off with it anymore without root (unless you PIN back in)

Go into the security settings, iirc the very bottom should have a toggle regarding screen overlay warnings

There is probably just one or two of the apps you have to disable. I have an app called swipepad that is always accessible by swiping the sides of my phone from any screen. When I turn this one off, I'm able to confirm app permissions. Super annoying though, as I then have to give swipepad overlay permissions again after the fact. You can get back to this settings menu by going to settings - applications - menu button - apps that can appear on top.

Turn off the blue light filter. That will get rid of screen overlay warning. Also if you have the twilight app just pause it

Nope. Happens on my Nvidia shield tablet now too after updating to the latest marshmallow. It's a MM thing. For now I stopped using swipepad and using the built in apps edge instead. You will have to do the same with whatever app is causing your issue if you want the problem gone permanently. Or wait for root.

Thinking about you this, I didn't realize why I was getting this prompt regardless of disabling all the apps with permission.
But I use the Edge panel, I will try disabling next time I get this prompt; should take care of it.

About the LED Icon Editor app for the LED case

Hello. I just got a Note 8 with the Samsung LED case. So far, I'm loving both and the case looks so beautiful. However, the icon creating app, 'LED Icon Editor', is not very good. It's quite difficult to draw the icons if you're not very good at drawing (I suck).
Here's the interface:
{
"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_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Has anybody find any app or online guide that can be useful to design different icons. For instance, I use WhatsApp a lot, and so far, every attempt to draw the WhatsApp icon has been a total failure so I'm just using a W, which also was not very easy to draw. So I used something like this as a guide but it won't work for icons just letters and common symbols
The guide I've been using:
Another issue I have is that if I reset or flash my phone, I will lose all my custom icons. Is there any way to backup the data for this app without root? (I'm thinking maybe backing up a particular folder).
Thanks.

I would also like to see what others have done. I have created a few custom icons for simple things like email and twitter. I tried doing one for snapchat and it never turned out good so I just gave up.

These are the ones I have created.

I started to play with this, but it seems you can only set it for certain contacts. Is there another place you can set it per app? For example, 1 for any texts, 1 for emails, etc.

Yes this is possible. You can choose contacts , next to that you can choose apps. Look at my uploads and click on the word next to 'personen'

Apparently you can't set it to the text app though? I see multiple apps listed, but no texts apps are in that list. Same with the Phone app.

That is correct. However you could try selecting contacts. I do not now if this will work.
For messaging, you could try to download a third party messaging app and give permission to the app to receive all messages, then you could select that app and give it a different led icon.
This is all in theory I did not check it for you.
Let me know if it works

I tried selecting all the contacts, but it only lets you select up to 100 contacts per icon.
The 3rd party messaging apps do not show on the list either.
Alas, it seems that this may not be a possibility.
