Amazfit Stratos - How to change notification background and text colour - Amazfit

Hello,
I'm quite happy about notification with Stratos using the standard Amazfit App.
The only issue is that white small text on black backgorund is hardly visible to me.
Is there any way to hook into the notification app in the watch and change colours?
It's clear to me that there is no option for that but I wonder if editing some xml settings or stuff like that would do the job.
Thanks in advance

Probably you can't do this unless you modify a system APK. Have you seen the app below? The paid version offers text size customization. Other third party solutions may have similar options...

Yes, mate I just uninstalled it, it is nice but I was getting notification delayed and all together when I wake the phone (when they are useless!).
Maybe it's just a matter of configuration, but that + the battery draining made me go back to the stock notification (I love that battery lasts more than 4 days).
Do You know which APK has to be edited? I've some background of .net and maybe I could give it a try.
Thanks.

Notifications probably are related to SystemUI... You need to unlock bootloader, get temporary root, pull the app, mod it and push it back... If your watch is new, unlocking bootloader will void its warranty, probably you want to wait a bit: WatchDroid and AmazMod should release new versions with a revamped notification system soon (I didn't like AMF either).

Ok, thanks.
I'll wait for new release and give it a try.

Notifications when the watch is "locked" (ie. not awake) are not handled by SystemUI, it's a dedicated binary file in /system/bin, so it can't be modified like that

Other app for notification on Stratos. Black or white background and you can setup font size. Works well for me. No delay and activate the watch so you can scrool and read notifcation. On original notification you must first unlock and swipe before read incomming notification.

Ungroup Notifications

MOD/Tweak I have been trying to search for and no one has done it yet.
Is there a way to UNGROUP the notifications.Here's Why
If you get a message, it will show in the notification bar the sender and the preview. However if you receive 2 messages, it will only show 2 MESSAGES, and you wont know from whom nor see the preview untill you open that notification.
Same as Missed calls, same as so many others apps.
So, my question is, IS THERE A WAY TO UNGROUP NOTIFICATIONS? Mod/Tweak?
Thank you,
B
would realy love to get an answer to this question...

Okay, so that's emails but you get the picture. Assuming you've still got your HD2, I rather fancy your chances of getting Jelly Bean on there sooner rather than later
jellybean makes this better but its still not the best solution for everyone, i for example react to some missed calls when i see them and to others after one day, so it would be perfect for me if there was a notification for every evet, and those would not be dismissed by entering the associated app but only when i click on them... so a solution that can do something like that would be very appreciated.

Then you would have tons of notifications filling your notification tray.
Sent from my MB508 using xda premium
for me it would be about 10 - 15 each day, and preferably such a feature would be optional, i can understand that most people may not want it
Has this been implemented yet?
Coming from an iPhone to Android, I understand that grouping is a 'good' feature - but if everyone raves about how customizable Android is, I don't understand why this setting can't be changed.
Bringing this back from the dead! Is there finally an option for this? I'm running LP PAC-ROM CM12.1 base.
It's 2019; still wanting to ungroup notifications
4 years later, but I'm still hoping for this!
I don't like going into my inbox; I use my notification drawer as a catch-all "to-do list". I like keeping it clean, so I address each message individually using the quick action buttons. But when grouped, those buttons are no longer "quick" - you gotta expand the group, expand the notification, and then tap the button. It's also too easy to accidentally swipe the whole group away!
Since I prefer the drawer to be an accurate representation of what I have yet to address, I know that this could mean "having a ton of notifications building up in your drawer". And I'm okay with that! If I have a ton of unaddressed emails, then having a ton of unaddressed notifications is an accurate representation of what I have yet to address. My urge to clean out that drawer is much stronger than the urge to clean out my inbox, and I want to take advantage of that.
Anybody know of a hack?

[Q] [REQ] Transparent status bar?

Hi, so as the title says... Just want to ask if there will be a transparent status bar feature?
It would be really nice to see it there, even in beta testing...

Good Changes! :good:
Saw that it arrived yesterday with an update, however the levels of transparency seem to be a bit broken.
If you select full transparency it doesn't seem to work, and just defaults to full black. (At least on the MotoX, anyway)
Additionally, if you select 'always show notification bar', the transparency option disappears entirely. (is this because it becomes adjustable within the widget setting instead?)
And finally, the transparency seems to have a forced gradient effect at all times, will there be a way to change this?

Hi,
Our team are still working on full transparency settings, as we want to make sure that the features will work 100%. So yes, we understand your frustration, but hopefully within the next update we'll include full transparency and gradient toggle support
I know there's a way but I don't know exactly "where" since I don't even know how to create a theme so maybe a theme maker knows?
This one have transparent default

}
This one doesn't have statusbar on default
But you can pull it down which is exactly the look I'm after (until you do anything at all and it dissapears again)
So I've tried everything in settings
Which only makes it black
But there's obviously a way to make it persistent and transparent through the theme itself - how?
EDIT: Aha just unlock the widgets and longpress the statusbar and voilá - seems to be persitent (although I have a bunch of xposed modules that alters the statusbar)
Good!

Lock screen notification pop up preview

There are certain features that are very important to me like being able to ready message on lock screen .. I'm very dissapointed that this phone does not have that option
I feel like we took a few steps back from previous phone software
I switched from the HTC one m8 and I'm considering switching back

I said the same thing. People argued with me and said the G2 didn't have that ability, but it certainly did. In the message/notification settings.
I really want that,option, as well as call reject, a native flashlight app, LG browser and task app(Verizon sucks), the ability to sync my Facebook calendar with LGs. There a ton of little things I'm missing

There's an app called Floatify that will show your messages on your lock screen. I haven't tried it out, but it appears to be getting some good reviews.

To read messages on the lock screen just get Dashclock widget and Dashnotifier extension. (may not even need the dashnotifier, can't remember for sure but I have both) and put the widget on your lockscreen in place of the clock,
See that's the awesome thing about Android is if you don't like something about your phone or want a certain feature.... Then change it! Between Apps and Xposed modules you can make a really nice stock ROM with pretty much anything you could ask for. Once we get the bootloader unlocked and start getting custom ROMs, forget about it, this thing is going to be a BEAST!

Xposed has the xblast module that has lockscreen notifications and lockscreen flash in it but it crashes sometimes so I use floatify and I love it. For flash light I use the g3 tweaksbox by assigning one of the volume buttons in "miscellaneous tweaks" when the screen is off.

The Notific app worked for me. Nothing seemed to work with Floatify for some reason. Maybe I needed the paid version for it to work.

[Workaround] Bring S-View back (xposed, dashclock)

First of all, video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9axQHQ8ZXLU
Solution is not from android programmer, rather geek
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!

Question Loving this phone and aodNotify, what other Apps do people use to enhance the phone experience?

Long story short, coming from a long time Huawei fanboy but now have an S23 Ultra. From a thread on here I’ve discovered aodNotify and love it. That got me thinking, what other apps do people consider essential to enhance the phone experience?

Not sure what to say here... I followed my instructions and was able to position it just fine.
One thing I can say is if you message the Dev, he's very responsive (he's even here on XDA (https://forum.xda-developers.com/m/jagan2.1884109/)) so you can message him and see if there is something he can help with.
I'll keep poking around and see if there was anything else I can think of that I did. I'll uninstall and reinstall to see if that can replicate what you are seeing and what I did to fix it.
Found the issue, my screen resolution is set to FHD+ and not WQHD+
If I change it to WQHD+ it's fine. I'll inform the dev.
Cheers.
