[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosangiorgio:
Hi, I just switched completely from iOS to Android after I while I used an iPhone and a Nexus 7 together. Now I replaced the iPhone with a Samsung Galaxy S4.

I'm pretty happy, but there are a couple of things I still completely grasp about how Android notifications work.

My first issue is related to *blocking mode* and Whatsapp. I have the same issue reported in this discussion.

It seems that the app can bypass Android notification system and relies on something else. Is that true? How can that happen?

I have another concern related to the use of vibration when sound is turned on. It seems that the system-wide settings refers only to phone calls, while for other notifications I have to rely on app-specific settings. Am I correct?

Taking for example facebook app, what would happen if I disable vibration and put the phone in silent mode? Will it vibrate?

Finally, I'd like to have a iOS-like notification list on the lock screen. So far I managed to get it for some applications (Messages, Whatsapp), but I'd really like to have some system-wide properties.

Generally speaking, can you please give me a link to Android documentation explaining what aspects of notifications it manages system-wide and what is responsibility of each application?

I'd really like to see as much as possible managed by the operating system, but from what I am experiencing it seems that it is exactly the other way round with a lot of settings left to the applications.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GermainZ:
Blocking mode is a Samsung feature AFAIK. Maybe WhatsApp is using the media channel for notifications instead of the notifications channel? Not sure.

Take a look at DashClock with one of the many extensions (e.g. AnyDash), NiLS Notifications Lock Screen, or any similar widget.

There's also Floating Notifications, which can show you (bubbles of) your notifications on your lockscreen.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosangiorgio:
Thanks for the links and for the hypothesis on Whatsapp notifications.

It seems that I have to choose either to have the pattern lock or to add multiple widgets. Am I right?

Is there any way to have both notifications and pattern lock?

I'm afraid pattern lock is again a Samsung specific feature so I'm a concerned about possible integration issues with other widgets.

What about the other question about system-wide vs per-app settings?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GermainZ:
Samsung disabled widgets with the secure lockscreen for some reason. There's an Xposed module to re-enable it, but you need the Xposed framework (and root).

I'm not sure about the vibration question.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosangiorgio:
My device is still not-rooted and I am not very keen on rooting.

I did some research and I found Popup Notifier (Sorry but I still can't post links to external websites) that seems what I need.

I'm going to try it and I'll let you know how it works.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosangiorgio:
Unfortunately it Popup Notifier is not what I was looking for. I'd like more to have an iOS-like list of notifications rather than popups.

It also felt a bit too hackish that I had to disable text to speech service and enable the app's accessibility service.

I have the feeling that they're misusing accessibility features as a workaround to access notification information.

I see that there are custom lockers. Is it possible to install them without rooting the device? If I install one of them would I be able to setup notifications as I like, add the pattern widget and leave the rest of the system as it is?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GermainZ:
All applications need Accessibility to get the notifications' content, prior to Android 4.3, AFAIK. Or root.

You can install custom lockscreens without root, but you'll also need Accessibility.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosangiorgio:
Did 4.3 introduce new APIs to let applications access notifications?

Is there any new app that already uses them? I'd like to try them on my Nexus 7 and then use one also on my S4 once Samsung releases the updated version of the system.

Got it. Thanks again for your kind replies!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GermainZ:
Applications can now use notification listeners, which allow them to detect new notifications (and when they're cleared) from an app. I think Floating Notifications uses it if you're on 4.3, but it's not exactly what you want.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosangiorgio:
Yes,unfortunately it's not what I'm looking for. I'll keep checking. I hope new app relying on the new features will be published soon
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GermainZ:
I came across a few DashClock extensions which do that, although for specific apps. You might want to try a few and see if this is what you want.

Hangouts DashClock Extension

WhatsApp, Facebook, Viber and LINE (4 different extensions) by Tiger-Workshop

You'll need DashClock for these, of course.

Other than that, there's DynamicNotifications you might be interested in. Not quite what you're looking for, but it might do the trick for now. ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosangiorgio:
DynamicNotifications seems very cool. I'll give it a try
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GermainZ:
Just in case you don't read the portal, this DashClock extension does what you want by using the notification listener features, instead of Accessibility services. :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosangiorgio:
Thanks for sharing the link! I'll give it a try. It is very promising :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosangiorgio:
I tried to use it on my S4 but I cannot set the widget.

This time I can't even disable the lock as I reported in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2472070
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kuljit55:
Hi, i will be moving on the s4 19505 this week from my s2, wanted to ask few questions please:

1. Is there anyway to root and install cwm recovery on the s4 without odin?

2. Is the clockworkmod recovery stable for the s4? (read a few articles saying its not stable as yet)

3. Is there currently existance of the brickbug on the 19505? If so which firmwares?

4. What options can be used in the stock recovery of the s4? Like can we root directly from there?

5. Are there any stock kernals that can be flashed and would give you cwm recovery with root without the yellow triangle?

6. Regarding power saver mode on the 19505, when enabling, what speed does it bring the processer to from 1.9ghz?

7. For the UK, is the 19505 the common variant or is it the 19500?

I would appreciate some info on these questions for now. I am looking to keep stock rom but with root and preferabally cwm recovery as i am quite used with it with my s2. Thanks

Anyone else getting the whistling notification sound (the default sound) coming from the phone, but no actual notifications on it?

It keeps whistling at me for no reason.

Yesterday evening it was doing it like clockwork every 15mins, but sometimes after 10mins. By night time it was sometimes every 5mins, driving me mental!

I disabled Gmail, Email, disabled most of the funky control functions (like "Air xxxx" and "xxx motion") and it still does it.

I've had some phantom notifications too, but only the odd one. I was thinking it was something to do with my pebble but maybe it wasn't after all.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zebulon35:
I have the same issue and its really irritating... Sound notification without any trace of what program is notifying. I have tried with apps that log the notifications , but it does not even show up there. My workaround, put standard notification to "quiet" and set specific other notification sounds for the apps you do want notification from. Could be done in the apps, or in for example light flow app.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H0rn:
Not had this problem yet, been using mine for about 2 days now, the only other apps that I have that would give me notifications is whatsapp and Facebook, maybe something you've installed?

Where it says setup and it says download nvflash and wheelie you will want to create a folder on your PC's hard disk (e.g. D:/nvflash) and extract them into the root of that. Then copy in all your nvflash backup files that you mentioned above also.

Then follow all the instructions.

[Samsung Galaxy Pocket] TrinKevin:
Hey guys, before I say anything, I'm new. Also, I apologize if there's already something that deals with my issue,but I didn't see it. So, here goes...

I recently downloaded jellyblast v3 for my GT-S5300, and it worked, though the ROM was actually a port from GT-S5360I...I think. After the install, I tried installing Punch Quest, and it didn't work. The main reason I went for the custom ROM is hoping I'd be able to install Punch Quest, but It still didn't work. There's a buncha others too, like Major Mayhem, but Punch Quest was the main ish.

I saw on a YouTube video that stuff like this helps you install high-end games. I was skeptical, but willing to try. I've gotten about 8 different versions of Punch Quest, and maybe 2 of Major Mayhem, none of them work. All the websites I got the apks from said it could run on my device, and the less specific ones said 2.3+. I'm running 2.3.6, and some other 2.3+ required apks work. Just hoping someone can find a fix for this. My build number's JELLYBLAST V3, Kernel version is 2.6.35.7 official.cori@androide #84, Baseband version S5300XXLF5, Android version 4.1.1, after the custom ROM, 2.3.6 before it, you know, if any of this helps.

If this is the wrong place to put this, PLEASE don't remove or delete it, I'm new here, and have no idea where to drop it. Thanks in advance!:D

What is changed in phone during unlock process?

Can this be saved because dev unlock gets lost during hard reset.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] ngame:
when you dev unlock your phone , your phone's registry keys will change and get you ability to install 10 apps.

no . after flash your phone or hard reset it you have to dev unlock phone again . you can't save it now but if any custom Rom comes to wp8 almost we can do that

How to dev unlock a phone is not the question. The question is how is it done exactly by MS servers for WP 8.

USB part, internet part
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] snickler:
In some of these forums, we've given a small explanation about how we understand the process. I'm pretty sure [MENTION=3529492]GoodDayToDie[/MENTION] or [MENTION=1794621]ultrashot[/MENTION] have given discussions, but if you look through the results you should find it. The only role the MS servers have in unlocking is relaying your Live Id information from your device to the server and checking whether the account is a developer account. If it is, it then checks the type of developer account and relays the number of apps that can be sideloaded via a SOAP call to the device. The device itself then runs some internal programs/calls to set the registry values that enable the dev unlock and makes the response back to the server acknowledging it. The important thing is that the signed certificate on the phone is used to interact with the certificate from the server (which makes it damn near impossible to intercept).
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
I suppose I could send a PCAP of the traffic that the phone and PC exchange during the unlock process, but it's nothing terribly exciting; a token is sent to the phone, which it uses to communicate with the Microsoft server over a cert-pinned SSL connection. The server responds with the unlock details, including the number of apps. Any response from a server whose certificate doesn't match the expected one is ignored.
