When I am traveling with Google Maps enabled, my phone is connected to a bluetooth speakerphone - and if someone calls me - instead of a map, I see who is calling, and then during the conversation, the phone goes blank instead of pointing the road further.
Does anyone know how to remedy this problem? Once I passed the motorway exit and had to make up for over 50 km ...
Can not the information about the caller appear only as a notification and the phone will continue to navigate?

If you wanted to download the Google Phone APK (there are a few different modified versions posted on XDA) you can set that dialer to appear as a bubble notification and disable the stock LG dialer, which should keep it from taking over your screen.
I understand this isnt a solution for fixing the LG dialer, but its still a solution overall so I figured I would reply. Not sure how to get the LG one to only show as a notification but i think its possible. Have you tried going into the LG Dialer Application Settings and Remove or Enable its "Draw Over Other Apps" permissions ? You may just need to give it access (or take it away, depending on which its already set to) in order to keep it from taking over the screen.

I did as you suggested and turned off the ability to draw on other applications for the "call service".
Unfortunately, it does not give anything, because the problem is somewhere else.
In the moment when navigation works and someone calls me - a notification window pops up - and that's OK.

But when I press the "answer" the screen switches completely to the telephone conversation - where every hand approximation to the proximity sensor (accidentally - when you try back to navigation while you driving the car ) will blank the screen, and "always display on" will not work - and the screen will go blank - because the screensaver started working.
Is it impossible to do so that after receiving the call - selected applications will still be displayed and the conversation will be in the background? - So that you do not need to eject the taskbar and manually switch to the navigation, which is dangerous while driving!
Now I'm understanding. I had thought you were trying to avoid the focus switching while the device was ringing.
I think there may be an easy fix for you though. See attached photo. Do you have PIP set to "Yes"?

Thing is like a runway light at an airport. Tasker doesn't seem to be able to do it in stock form. No idea if secure settings could do it. Anyone have any ideas?

I don't know, but +1 I was thinking the same thing.
This would have to be manual every night but it would work. Settings>led>check boxes.

Yeah that isn't gonna fly. I have tasker automating a night mode. I guess its a feature the tasked devs will need to add in. Right now I just a it it face down on my nightstand. Not a huge deal to leave it facedown.

Maybe you could at least make it one touch off and one touch on by using a NFC tag and NFC Task Launcher and Tasker...maybe
I figured out how to do it using tasker, but you need root. I also need to do some more testing, but this should work in most cases.
Some background: when a notification comes in, the system sets the file led_pattern in /sys/devices/virtual/sec/led to something non-zero. 3 is a slow blinking blue light, 1 is solid red, I forget what the others are now. When the screen is turned on, this is reset to zero, and when the screen is turned off, if the notification bar hasn't been opened (and the program with the notification hasn't been opened) the value is reset to something non-zero. So, I created a simple task to change the value back to zero:
Create a new task, then select Script>Shell. Enter the following command:
echo 0 > /sys/devices/virtual/sec/led/led_pattern
Check the 'Use Root' box
Then your task is done. I'd try it once to make sure you have accepted whatever superuser popups (you'll need to always allow this for it to work on its own).
Now create a profile, and for the context select Event>UI>Notification. You may need to check tasker on the accessibility menu if you haven't already (it will prompt you if necessary). Add whatever other contexts you want (I have a variable that's set when I turn on my nighttime menu that I check for so the light will blink during the day but not at night). If you don't add other contexts this will always block your light, so make sure you've done some check to block it only at night.
Disclaimer: I haven't extensively tested this. There are a few quirks I've found so far:
1) If you receive a google voice text, the light instantly turns purplish normally. On my phone it will come on for a split second before tasker can kill it.
2) If you receive a notification which is blocked with this profile/task, and then turn on the screen but don't do anything to clear the notification the light will turn on when the screen is turned off again. This is also true if the notification comes in when you have the screen on and you turn it off before clearing it. You might be able to fix this by adding some variables to the profile/checking for screen on/off, but I mostly just want it to automatically turn off the light when I'm asleep so I'm happy with this so far.
3) I haven't tested this overnight, I guess it's possible that the phone will run a check and turn the notification back on at some point. I'll test it tonight and see if anything weird come up.
4) I've only tested this blocking gmail and google voice. It's possible that some other notification would toggle one of the other led variables and this won't help.
If you have any issues with this please let me know and I'll see what I can figure out. If this has helped you please click thanks; I'm new here and could use some street cred.
EDIT: You can solve problem 2 by creating a new Profile with context State>Display>Display State set to Off, and adding in the other secondary (ie night time) contexts. Call the same task you called for the first profile.
EDIT: Oops, forgot to mention, this is on a Verizon Galaxy S3, I assume it's the same for the other carriers, but I have no way of testing it.
Hello folks here is a little back story.
Recently I was given phone that is originally from USA. ( Keep in mind im from Europe). One of the phones is Samsung Galaxy S SCH - i500 (pictures attached bellow).

Since phone has no SIM card slot, I can not use this phone here to make call or texting. However I would like to use this phone to browse internet ( its wifi ) and read few pdfs or alike on it.
But I cant get pass this screen
I can get into recovery and make Factory reset /Wipe but even with that option seems like wont clear the google account for some reason? ( guess it should?)
pic related
I CANT get it to download mode for some reason? ( no idea so far why ? )
So how would i get rid of that lock screen or bypass it or clear that google account from the phone?
Re: Samsung Galaxy SCH-i500 how to bypass "Login with google account" screen?
Generally when you would come to the activation screen you would tap each if the 4 corners of the screen,, in a counter clockwise pattern,, don't remember exactly but probably start at right top or right bottom corner,,, probably have to go through pattern 2-3 times,,, then it will bypass that screen.
Other solution,,, sign on with your Google screen name and password,,, if no account,,, register on your pc 1st then phone next...
.
Well I managed to get into phone, by doing the following take like bunch of tries before I get the grip of it but after I got in once and phone relocked itself, after I got second time and phone decided to turn itself off and finally the third time when I was able do remove google account / do factory reset from the phone itself , I was finally of that pattern lock annoyance and now even got Download Mode back. For anyone interested here is what i did to get pass that login screen:
1. Completely power off and power on your Galaxy-S phone.
2. Right after you pass the Galaxy-S and just before the Verizon Wireless logo video ends, immediately tap on the home button extremely fast and repeatedly (at least 4-5 times per second). If the Emergency Call button pops up, click that every now and then (3-5 times) but keep tapping on the home button. During this process your phone may flash the password screen or keypad screen just a few times and your phone will seem to be lagging due to the tapping.
3. Keep tapping until you see your Android home buttons stay steady at the bottom. Voila, you’re in your phone! If the emergency keypad constantly shows up or if it shows the Google account screen constantly, you have failed. The success rate can be around 15-50% so keep trying until it works. (You may want to grab a young phone-savvy guy or girl to do it if your fingers are too slow)
4. Find and run the Settings App and go to Accounts & Sync.
5. Under Manage Accounts, remove all accounts except your Google account.
6. Press your power button off and on and enter your correct Google account information.
7. It will ask for a new security pattern. Enter it twice and you are done!
This solution worked for me. If it does for you, please leave a comment with your carrier and phone model to let others know that it worked!

Not verizons phone here like I said, but worked just fine.
Now that you can get into download mode - I suggest you look at "GeeWiz Media v4.3". It's been custom built from Jellybean v4.2 for precisely what you're doing (no telephony or 3G data services - WiFi only).
Thanks for the suggestions mates will check it out.
First of all, video:

Hi there... so, i was pretty dissapointed with lack of S-View functionality on CM13, S4 Mini. It was great feature, that was doing really good job with magnetic cover.
If you tried to do something with it, you probably experienced some problems with magnetic sensor (or you were smarter than me). It prevented to turn on screen with power button on any custom lockscreen from market, that was better than cm's stock one. In terms of 'better' i have in mind a lockscreen... that has f*** clock in right spot for case's window I was trying to bring it back with various results, but finally i achieved (i think) the best possible solution, turning lockscreen into S-View screen.

What it does right: showing time and basic info about battery, calls, msgs, next alarm, notifications (from gmail, fb messeger - that part is actually very customizable).
What it doesn't do at all: doesn't let you pick up calls, turn off your alarm via window and do any stuff that requiers touching via window. Magnetic sensor basicaly turns off that feature when case is closed. Showing info about playing track is not worth activating (because of space).
So, we need xposed installed and then download module: http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.ssrdroide.lockscreenwidgets
And the widget we are gonna use is dashclock: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.nurik.roman.dashclock (or you can use more advanced alternative: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kk.widget)
Step 1. First thing you wanna do is to configure widget the way you want - download some extensions for it (like battery info). I highly recommend to use DashNotifer to get notifications from custom apps like fb messenger (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.umang.dashnotifier It's already there in KK Widgets). Test it on your homescreen for now and find configuration that suits you.
Step 2. will be add widget to lockscreen via xposed module. This configuration (http://i.imgur.com/iiJMK7w.png) will keep your widget in case's window, when owner info will be out of it on same time. There is also something to mention - if you will not turn off notifications on lockscreen they will move your widget little higher (depending on number of notifications).
So... 1. If you wanna keep your notifications on lockscreen, set container 'y' translation to something around -150. Widget will stay in window regardless number of notifications.
2. If you wanna remove notifications for that cause, set container 'y' translation to -175. Widget will be in perfect spot for the whole time.
That works for standard DPI.
And that's it. It works perfectly with magnetic sensor.
For better effect you can change your wallpaper to black (worth it). That's however will change when you will listen to music, you can turn this option off or use this xposed module to paint it black for good: http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.generalbrus.brightlockscreen
Another thing is alarm. It happens that Timely has clock in perfect spot when activated and can be controlled with physical buttons
I'm super happy with result. It's not exactly what you could achieve with real S-View, but it does good job
If you have better solutions share it in thread!
So I connect to my work van via Bluetooth and use Google Maps with multiple stops.
When I'm on the phone to a friend while Google Maps is running in the foreground and phone in background and I arrive at a stop, instead of being able to click "continue" and go on the the next stop, my phone automatically switches back to the ongoing phone call! I then have to switch back to Google Maps and click continue and sometimes it takes a few seconds to continue to the next stop and I notice my data shows H+ and not LTE so I'm assuming it has something to do with the data somehow dropping connection when I'm on a call and then comes back when I open Google Maps again!
Anyone else had this issue? It's really annoying when I have multiple stops and on a call!
A solution could be to enable VoLTE.

VoLTE is already enabled and it is on WiFi preferred but shouldn't be an issue because my old S10+ was on the same and had no issues with it all
You have described 2 issues. 1) after disconnecting a call, maps doesn't appear but rather the phone app. Solution: go to phone settings and change the "call display while using app" to small pop-up. 2) data switching to H+ when on call...VoLTE should solve this which apparently is already enabled and you say is not working...for this does the VoLTE logo appear on the status bar..if not, you need check with your phone company to give you VoLTE enabled sim card.

1) the call does not disconnect it is ongoing but rather when I get to the next stop on Google Maps because I have multi-stops, the phone app automatically pops back up full screen even tho in settings, it is set to small popup.
2) Yes, the VoLTE symbol is in status bar always
Edit; I'm guessing this option below "Keep calls in popup" might solve my issue?!

Hi all, I would like to know how to change vibration intensity on WhatsApp. To better explain: when someone sends me a message, my S23 Ultra vibrates twice, that is something I don't like, so I would change and make my phone vibrates once when WhatsApp messages arrive to my phone. I've searched but I couldn't find the right option.
Please can someone help me? Hope I've been clear.
Thanks
go to sound and vibration and there you can choose notification vibration like short, beeep, zigzag etc , i set up mine for Sync with sound.

Go to Settings, Apps, find Whatsapp, click on it and then under "Notifications" then "In-app notification settings" and there you can set all the notifications in Whatsapp as you want

Try to select your preferred vibration pattern in settings.
Guys I've tried again all of your suggestions but it not changes. When I choose 'short' in settings for example, it only works on Instagram notifications, and when I try to change something in WhatsApp settings it doesn't work! Even if I choose 'short', 'long' or 'default', it always remains that two little f****n vibrations!
Perhaps check your whatsapp permissions & access options.

If WhatsApp is the only app with the issue, might be worth trying to clear data and uninstall it. Then reinstall and set it up afresh. May be worth a try if nothing else is working.

Yes, the only thing it's to clear all and uninstall it, I think it's the only right way. It's not possible that everyone can do it but me. And this thing already happened with my previous phone, a Note20 Ultra. I try with several devices to change the vibration, but I've never do it. This time I want to go far and know why it only happens to me.
Finally did it!
Long press Whatsapp icon > info >
Notifications > In-app notification settings (this will NOT work if this menu is accessed via the app)
Turn OFF Vibrate under each (Messages, Groups, Calls).
Make sure vibration is switched on in app settings under message notifications
Now you can choose your favourite vibration pattern from phone settings. It was really annoying because when you receive multiple WhatsApp messages the only thing you want to do is throw the phone out the window, now it is way better!!
