Maybe don't use mirsal anymore?
You can probably use Tasker to make a widget that will do what you want. It's a paid app though and can be quite complicated. Only thing I can think of though.
Hopefully others will be of more help.

samsung galaxy s3 android 4.1 update resize widgets and expand notifications

i downloaded the official jellybean update from samsung on my s3 but i cant get the expandable notifications and resizing widgets to work. for expandable notifications, i only tried it for whatsapp and it did not work. i have not tried mail and messages yet
Easiest way to try them is to take a screen shot.

Are you using a 2 finger gesture to expand? From what I hear this will be fixed in next version to only require a one finger gesture, but currently, Gmail or Email notifications and SMS etc, you need to use a 2 finger downward swipe to open them up

Whatapp does not take advantage of that feature yet!
I'm sure I read somewhere we could reply directly from the notification? Did I dream that?

You can do that on Cyanogen, there is a popup notification that allows you to reply direct from that. Wonder if thats what you are thinking?

Could be actually. You mean you pull down the notification bar and can press reply without opening the app? That'd be great.

I've been trying to get it to work with Gmail but it doesn't seem to happen. Just opens the Gmail when more than one email has been received and unread. When a single email is unread though it does show some of the message text.
Anyone had better luck?

Scratch that! It works... You have to drag down with two fingers from the notification to expand it. (like you drag down in Google maps to go into the 3d view)

How did I just figure this out! This feature is obviously not that well known! Oh my.
Thanks so much, this is immensely useful!

Miui style toast sms notifications

So I haven't run miui on a phone in forever, but the last time I did it had sms notifications that popped up toast style on the notification bar so you didn't have to exit the app you were in to respond. I have two questions, 1. Are there any devs out there right now that love miui enough that might try to port it? 2. Does anyone know of a sms client that may exhibit that behavior? Thx, in advance.
Enjoyment to the MAX.

You mean like a popup reply? Every third party messaging app on the play store does this, my personal favorite is 8sms.

Alert on lockscreen ??

Hello
Is there a way to get the lock screen to turn on every time a message is coming I mean like
Whatsapp Gmail etc. that will be exactly like the regular massage app or missed call with the clear alert
As apps that do that I all ready know about my question is for the build in popup window and the turn on the lock screen for each massage that came in
As far as I know it can't be done but Hi maybe I will surprised
Thanks

But i want some apps that i use to desplay the same as in the screenshot

What you are looking for is this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/4-0-l-lockscreen-bring-android-l-t2871021
It's not the most stable App ever so you might run into a few issues from time to time, but overall it works pretty well. I am using it and really like it.

Yes i know all ready did and update my phone it is great except the battry that run quick
And there is a popup for each app but the screen dose not turn on when a message os coming so still there is a need for an app to turn on the screen each time such as niLS
Pat hit the nail on the head
Android L Lockscreen is a marvel, but be careful what you wish for. It'll notify you about everything on Lockscreen even down to what you had for breakfast.

Problems with Messenger

Hello,
I just updated my Mi10 to 12.2.2.0 Xiaomi.eu and everything seems to be working fine for me except two strange things with facebook messenger that are really frustrating:
1) it doesn't show messenger notifications on Always On Display, I have to turn on the screen and only then they show up
2) unread messages ARE NOT in bold font so I cannot see which are new after entering the app
I tried clearing the cache & data and reinstalling the Messenger twice, it didn't help. Tried changing the system font, size and weight - didn't help.
If you have encountered these problems, PLEASE tell me what to do, this is really frustrating as it is my main communicator to talk to people and it makes it very difficult.
Regards,
Chris

hey, thanks for your reply. Is this some modded version? Why did you choose it over the official play store version? just being curious.
I don't need nor want the bubbles to be honest, just notifications and unread messages showing in bold don't like they used to...

you mean the bubbles on the home screen that you can click to enter the conversation? or do you mean the little icons on the Always On Display?
For me the second ones do not appear as the should.

thank you for your suggestion, it solved the problem partially, the unread messages are still not bolded font but at least there is a blue dot on the right side so I see what was unread (it was removed in the newest versions). I guess it's some font conflict between messenger and my current ROM version...
