Is there some way to change the tasks and appointments notification system behavior in WM? Mine is already tweaked for use the classic alert interface,instead of the HD2 default one, and which I can choose between several predefined options for delay the task reminder, but from my point of view, this is very unpractical, because, in most of cases, this predefined times are not the ones I need. Other think that annoys me a lot, is the behavior of this notification interface when I choose the option for edit the task -> if I edit the task and change the hour of the reminder for, let's say 2 hours later, after press the ok button, WM doesn't closes the notification (as it does if, I choose the "delete task" one); it remains opened, and if I push the the dismiss button all the changes maked in the edition will be lost.
Moreover, most of all PIM apps, like Agenda One, ThumbCal, an so forth, use this built in WM interface for throw it's alerts, so this apps, in some way become unusables too.
SO... The questions are:
1. Is there some way to change the WM behavior with the alerts?
2. Is there some way to via cab, registry hack or so, for to get a menu where you can choose a desired delayed time for the task, alert or appointment in a precise way?
3. Is there some way for auto-close the tasks alert popup after edit it?
Thanks in advance and sorry if I didn't express mysell better. English is no my home language.
So is not possible?
Now i have 2.2, i really want to make the most of it
some things i cannot find?
- still no notifications of new sms/mms when streak is off. Streakled only flashes the icons on the right and then it's all black again. This is
the biggest problem off them all. I still cannot understand why this important one is not solved yet.
Possible solution : your streak has to be rooted...install ledstreak...some extra notes thanks to Bizzach
A couple of items on your first point.... I use Streak LED and it works perfectly for me, so that you're notified when SMS's come thru.
If you're rooted, you need to turn off notifications in Superuser Permissions. Then the Streak LED light will stay on after they come on for a second. Also, if you're using Handcent as your messaging client, uncheck the box in settings for 'disable screen on' (or something to that effect).
It's so nice being able to just glance at the phone with the screen off and tell if you have a message waiting that you didn't hear. And yes, I agree, this is the biggest thing that Dell missed putting nativly into the Streak.
more info: you still cannot see your missed calls, just your missed sms/mms.
- i want differend wallpapers in differend screens, love to scroll trough my sexy wife pics on every screen
Possible solution : but still not perfect : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824010
- on 1.6 i had a shortcut to view a red and green bar on top of the screen to view the processor working..cannot find it anymore now?
I downloaded SeePU from the market..it give 2 small bars in the top bar so you can see your network and cpu usage.
- i like as many icons on my screens as possible..launcher pro gives me 5 vertically but the spacing between the icons horizontally is way to much (landscape mode)..can i change it?
Solution : works with launcher pro plus
- the minimum brightness is still to bright to brows at night in bed..anyone an idea how to get it even darker?
possible solution but not ideal : adjbrightness ..but it has no widget to change it fast.
- in 1.6 i had perfect backgrounds, in 2.2 they all are croped and horrible resolution?
possible solution : wallstreak but still i have a grey vertical small band between the differend screen pages when scrolling.
- To many connections issue in stock webbrowser and others.
Fixed : latest update from dell
- google maps has problems showing the map..map on screen freezes.
No solutions yet ...maybe have to wait for updateUpdate : i deleted the last update and now ik works perfect again.
- My dell streak is getting really slow
Solution : install systempanel..so you can stop apps that are eating up resources. it also has a widget you can put on your desktop that kills all the background or
active running apps. You have to exclude some apps in systempanel itself so they don't stop working after you hit stop all...like any alarm apps or dedicated apps that have to be running all the time. So hit the kill all icon and it is all running smooth again.
- wifi is less strong in 2.2 then in 1.6.
No solution yet..maybe someone knows how to tweak this
- No dedicated fm radio app.
- still no dedicated dock for just charging.
- voice dialing crashes all the time
- can't lock orientation to portrait, even with other launchers
- temperature settings on screen seem to be set all skewed... after being in pocket, have to wait for screen to cool before I can slide or pattern unlock phone
- voice features don't work properly for google search or Swype if there is ANY noise nearby, even in near total quiet. seems Dell broke the voice function.
- swype behaves extremely poorly. very not impressed with its function. normally swype performs so much better. I will attribute this to Dell as they've done something to the functionality of the touch screen.
Possibel workaround : I'm running slide-it and it's running perfectly
- seemingly no ability to assign different notification sounds to the varied TYPES of notifications (i.e. SMS, Email, Gmail). they all have to use the same sound.
Solution thanks Rodjordan :can't you set them within each app. I changed the settings in gmail & handcent individually.
-No toggle app works fully for 3g. I always have to turn it on in the settings and after turned on, I can kill 3g for a few seconds with a toggle app, but it will come up by itself again.
- no exchange connection
solution : delete default policy on exchange, synch, create default policy again.
- i miss the icon in the top bar that shows when i'm toggle gps on and off.
- anyone know how to switch between keyboards? Settings just allows modifications to both keyboards; no way to select one.
Thanks to msgnyc :longpress into any textfield and choose input method. Choose your desired input method
- always going in portrait mode after working in landscape and viewing video on stock videoplayer of youtubeplayer?
please share your solutions I will update when i find them.

I have set my Launcher Pro to landscape and set it to 8x6 (so that´s 46 icons if you dont use widgets).
It´s in Preferences - Homescreen Settings - Number of columns (and rows).
I´ve unchecked "Auto-fit Items" and "5 Icon rwos in homescreens".

it only works for the app drawer not for the homescreens.
I only have 3 options in homescreen settings and it's all about how many screens i want..nothing to choose for rows or colums.
like he says it is to be found in Launcher Pro.. try reading a bit.. it helps..

Ooops, maybe it´s exclusive to the paid version "Launcher Pro PLUS" which I use. I´m able to resize widgets, which is also exclusive to the paid version.

this reads more like a bug list so here are mine:

2. voice dialing crashes all the time
3. can't lock orientation to portrait, even with other launchers
4. temperature settings on screen seem to be set all skewed... after being in pocket, have to wait for screen to cool before I can slide or pattern unlock phone
5. voice features don't work properly for google search or Swype if there is ANY noise nearby, even in near total quiet. seems Dell broke the voice function.
6. market will FC. doing browsing and install, or updating and browsing, market FC's and I have to reopen it. this is NOT intermittent, happens every time.

Thanks, will try it...didn't know about the turning off noti.. in superuser permissions.
If it works i update the list
update
btw..pm me if you have found a solution for the above problems..i will add it.
Had two problems, just fixed one:
No Exchange connection: delete default policy on exchange, synch, create default policy again.
Found no solution for the following behavior:
No toggle app works fully for 3g. I always have to turn it on in the settings and after turned on, I can kill 3g for a few seconds with a toggle app, but it will come up by itself again..
Any ideas?

thanks Rodjordan and Krutch...i updated it.
*with ADW you can get upto an 8x8 icon grid for the homescreen. ADW is free unlike LP+
*ADW you can lock the homescreen to portrait mode by selecting portrait orientation and system pesistant
*Official 2.2 came with an Radio app. "TuneIN Radio" but no actual manual tuning tho.

The tuneIn radio app just streams radio, like so many others...the streak has a fm radio module inside so it has to work without streaming. Or am i wrong
Nope, you´re right. With Android 2.1 and root there was an Streak-fm-radio-app on modaco which worked fine for me. It doesn´t work on 1.6 and I don´t know how about 2.2.

Ahh, i got you. Didnt even know the Streak had a built in FM module
I just took the dive and installed the stock 2.2 ROM. I'm not going back to 1.6 but this thing has some issues:
- Anyone know where I can get the numeric battery level?
- *#*#307#*#* fails with something about "PASSPORT on SD" error.
- I was hoping this ROM would fix my Parrot CK3300 pairing issue but it did not.
- anyone know how to switch between keyboards? Settings just allows modifications to both keyboards; no way to select one.
- In 1.6 there was a setting to keep the backlight on when plugged in. Can't find it here.
- I don't necessarily want my favorites in alphabetical order. Anyone know how to reorder the contacts in the contacts stage UI widget?

On Lollipop the lockscreen notifications designate apps as "sensitive" however some of which are not at all sensitive. One example is my podcaster PocketCasts, is there any way to change the security sensitivity for specific apps? I should note this is BarePop/ZV8
I found the answer to my question on some random forum, it's not intuitive but go into "Settings>Sound>Notifications>Lock screen" and change "Hide sensitive only" to "Show all notifications" then you'll need to either long press the notification to mark it as sensitive(and it will hide the details) or go right below in the Sound menu where it says "Apps" and you can change settings there.
My phone doesn't have the option to hide sensitive only. All it says is show all notifications or hide them . It used to say unlock to see sensitive but now it's gone idk what happened
Please where is this function? And battery optimization permission.... Are same things ? Thank
From what I've been able to determine, there is no 'protected apps' menu option on Emui 8.
The place to adjust them is in - Settings - Battery - Launch. Personally I find Huawei's management way too agressive, so I turned off managing all automatically. Then in batch manually set everything to allowed and let Android sort it out. It doesn't seem to have made any difference to my battery life, but at least most notifications seem to work now. You could manually set only the ones you want to allow to run in the background though and it might help.
From settings - battery I also went into the settings icon top right and turned off the 'power intensive prompt' option because it was annoying - Google maps is SUPPOSED to be using frequent positioning, and my podcast app isn't much use if it isn't running in the background!
The whole power management seems to be designed for a phone with a tiny battery, where micro management is needed - but on a phone with the largest battery out of any flagship it seems needlessly aggressive....
Edit: It is also possible in the running apps/recent apps screen to click the lock icon on a program which is supposed to prevent Android from closing that app - but not sure how effective that is on EMUI.
Hello to all. I have installed in huawei mate 10 pro and I would like to use an application to notify gmail emails and whatsapp messages on always on display. use led blinker application that works properly when the phone is charging, while when it is without cable the notifications arrive only when I turn on the screen. I can think that it is a protection of consumption but I have activated all possibilities. could someone tell me what I could activate to solve this problem? thank you
This does exist. It's in the recent apps page (bottom left/right button, depending on your settings).
If you press the lock icon on an app it should "lock" the app from automatically closing.
It also prevents that app closing when you tap the recycle bin icon in the recent apps page.
This is exactly what I need, but I am running EMUI 9 on mate 10 pro and I cannot find this "lock"!! Yet I am sure I have seen it at some point in time... X-(
I just got the Android Pie/EMUI 9 upgrade last week and I found the lock by accident. When viewing your apps in the recents view, find the app you want to lock and drag it down towards the trash icon. You should now see the lock icon for that app at the top, and it should be protected from clearing recents. Clicking the lock or dragging it down again should toggle the lock.
On recent apps list, slide down the app window to lock - lock pad on top. Slide again to unlock
Hey all, I have an issue with the notification settings being limited/not available for some apps. Both Yi Home and Mi Home are missing the option to configure notifications for certain categories and the MIUI settings claim that the apps haven't shown any notifications (see greyed out 'categories' in the first two attachments). If I take i.e. the BlueMail app (third attachment), I have all the default categories available (floating, lock screen, sound, vibration and LED).
What else is weird is that Mi Home does vibrate and activates the LED when a notification is shown, but Yi Home does not do anything, it only shows the notification in the status bar so I no longer get any alerts from my camera unless I unlock the phone and go look for it manually. This is a big problem for me and I would appreciate it if somebody could tell me how to fix this. I've looked through all the settings and tried everything I can think of but it just seems that MIUI doesn't detect the notifications for some reason.
I just checked the Yi Home app on my Honor 7 and there I do have more options, see attachment. So really not sure whether this is an app bug, OS bug or MIUI bug.
Is there really no one else here that uses either of these apps on the Pocophone to see if he/she has the same problem?
