No.....notification dropdown in lockscreen is a special features for ICS Rom....its an quickest way to go to notification with having to unlock it....
if you don't like that feature then flash Custom Rom.....
If you realy don't like this you can use an other (custom) rom or lock screen but a lot of them keep this feature!
Maybe a good developper can solve your "problem" with changes in the lines of rom ...
anyone has any solution?
Use pattern or password lock, or change to miui.

I know, using pin or other security lock will disable it, but i don't want to use them
Actually, It somehow worked the way I wanted before but after a fresh install, it's back to old behaviour and I have no clue how it worked before

ICS has always had that feature. You would have to edit the framework, not sure whether framework-res.apk or one of the .jar files, to change it.
I am ready to do those edits if someone can tell me what and how to edit
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.
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.
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?

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.
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.

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?

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.

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.

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.
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

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.
DynamicNotifications seems very cool. I'll give it a try
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4
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.
Thanks for sharing the link! I'll give it a try. It is very promising

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://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2472070

So, I've been using the quick circle case. I like it, but I have to scroll through those bs apps to get to what i need. I'll never use them (I don't use stock music player, and settings and download more open up inside the phone, stop no point), but I can't deselect them from the circle apps. My phone is rooted, is there a way to remove/deselect them from my quick circle?
As I know, those are the default apps that are not allowed to deselect.
Too bad. To be honest I would be more than happy to remove most of default ones as Im using difrent apps.
I wonder is there any custom app that can handle quickciecle ?
I got rid of music by disabling, camera would be the same, don't know about settings and the download more sorry.

You can't even if you root it's just not possible until someone makes something or you flash a custom ROM

I don't quite understand your question. Do you want to put Google camera at your homescreen? or do you want to just change the icon of the Google camera?
Well if you want to do the first one, then you just have to drag and drop the icon at your homescreen, and if you want to do the latter one then you should install a third party launcher.

Hello Digigoon,
I would like to do the same as iMaxime.
We do not want to change icon in HOME screen, we would like to change application triggered by LOCK screen icon.
That is... we may not be able to have the fast picture feature in-build in Honor camera app, but we would be able to launch the third-party camera app from the lock screen. May be more complicated than that, but could you please help us? Is this even possible?
Cordially,
Xavi

As far as I know, you can't do that with stock ROM (or any that isnt customizable on that way). You'll need to download a launcher or an app do costumize your lockscreen

You may try and freeze the native camera app and install the app you want. If there is no FC, then any shortcut will lead to Google Camera as it will be assumed as the default (only) camera app.
I´ve removed myself some useless system apps and some others just can´t be removed. Never tried camera.
Settings > Apps > Advanced > Default App Settings > Camera.
If you change it from there, doesn't it get changed from the lock screen?

You can use a method described by Paul O'Brian but you will have to dig for it a bit.
I don't recall specifically but he used something like
pm.hide.something
To hide the native app and use the one you want. After that, it will use your custom app.
Tag him in the post and he can clarify more.
Hello all.
I finally jumped on the Android 10 / Q bandwagon straight from Android 8 / Oreo (I skipped Android 9 / Pie altogether).
Is there any way to remove the weather on the lockscreen? I use a third-party app for displaying weather on my lockscreen.
If there is any way to remove it, I just can't find it. I was told that in Android P one could go to Settings > Display> Screen display> Lockscreen and remove it from there, but I can't find such option on my phone.
Best regards.

Now about removing the weather from the lockscreen, can anyone help me?
What is the app called?
What app are you planning to use for that? The weather doesn't show for me, so I thought maybe I could you it.

It isn't an app, it's a system functionality in Android 9 and 10. To have it you need the right phone (Pixel phones, OnePlus phones, .... Phone which are close to stock Android), and if you have a compatible smartphone, you just have to leave the location enabled. (And everytime I disable location, the weather disappears)
But you said you wanted to use a third party app for it. Now I'm confused.
