My weather widget always displays a numeral 1 in a Sun icon next to the time. I have no idea what this is for ? Whatever it means I seem to find no way to make it vanish.
Any ideas ?
I believe the 1 could be for DST, but I could easily be wrong.
I seen that to in the home screen thread and was wondering what it was to

Ok how do you get this thing to update your location on its own? Every time I got to do it it manually in my locations. Is there something I'm missing?

I dunno lol.. But I think they should've put an option (unless I'm missing something lol) to remove it.. But maybe yu won't be as annoyed by it now that yu know what it is..

Hi guys,
Just wanted some help from you guys. Suddenly i noticed that my s3 has started speaking on its own. Like when i zoom out my homescreens, it says
"Workspace 2 of 3"
When i open a folder,it says
"Folder opened "
I dont know what happened. I didnt tweak any settings and updated to the latest firmware about a week back. Until yesterday there were no voice feedbacks but all of a sudden they have started. Couldnt find any setting to turn them off either.
It is very annonying and any help would be greatly appreciated!

That sounds like TalkBack. Disable it under Settings -> Accessibility -> TalkBack
Already disabled, still it speaks!

Have you got Light Flow installed? There is a bug with it due to Samsung/ICS kernel
Yes i did have that app installed and i guess it has happened due to that app only. However, i just uninstalled the app but it still speaks. Will try restarting the phone once and will get back to you. Thank u so much anyways.

When I got a message or notification while my screen was off it would light up the screen automatically to show you the notification on the lock screen. Is there an android alternative?

SMS Enhancer does it with the stock MMS app:

SmsPop Up maybe?

go sms works perfectly as you described, and its my choice, but see what works best for you.

Honestly I looked into a few of those recommendations but I chose Tasker with the plug in Secure Settings.
Now I can choose to wake up my screen on any notification for a defined amount of time before it turns off automatically.
Tasker is a very powerful system app. So if you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it. It's a paid app ($6.95) but very worth it. If your skeptical go to the developer's website for a trial.

Tasker is pretty awesome. Amazing things can be done with that app.
Not gonna lie, I wasn't expecting you to say that Tasker is your solution.
Agreed with slix, go sms works great

Stock does not show you the message contents on a pop up on the screen.
Widgetlocker + gosms widget. This is my set up.

Well the OP didn't word it that way. If that's the case, then people have made plenty of suggestions.

True. I made the leap because my wife had an iPhone and knew the behavior the OP was referring to.

True, I've had multiple iPhones as well. I actually HATED that feature and I still don't like it on my note. It should come with a damn LED notification like 99% of every android phone.

Hello there
When I'm browsing my phone, every once in a while, I get this greyish icon/dot appear in the notification bar, at the left.
Does anybody know what it's for?
Thanks in advance

This might be a stupid question but do you think you can take a pic or maybe use your phone while browsing and hope that you can video record it with some other camera and capture that grayish dot. It could be that you have a security software installed and everytime you browse it scans the website you're on. I could be wrong.
For me, when i view a pic on reddit sync, it shows up. I think it just is a way to declutter the notification bar, cause if you click it, it shows all the icons anyway. Any more info as to what you're doing when it happens?

I'll try to see if I can do that, the only security software installed on my phone is Cerbereus, which is more phone tracking than anything

I think you may be right, looked around on another forum. Somebody suggested that for another user. Uploading picture for confirmation if that's ok
