Hello everyone!
I want to know if it's posible to make the stock Launcher slide down from any part of the Desktop and open the notification panel instead of the hisearch bar.
I know this is possible using third part launchers and i had been using nova Launcher for the last 5-6 years, but i like the stock look on emui so im interested on that and thats the reason i ask the developers because i think it cannot be something so hard to do but very useful. I don't know how Huawei did not thought about that...
Up for subscribing to your thread so i will know when a developer that has a Huawei device and is mooding EMUI 10 apps ? will answer your question ?
PS. ATM i can say that i don't know any, but who knows, maybe there are some @ here, using the phone as is, because for this device (and all released after this one) there is no bootloader unlocking codes / root...

Yo,
I have a little trick with an app called VividNG.
I have assigned to the top right side of my screen a zone where I can pull down to open the notification panel.
After doing this you will be able to open the notification panel this way in every app. Just use your thumb.
It's not as easy as swiping from anywhere on the screen but it's better than nothing at all and having to reach the top of the screen everytime.
Hope that it will help someone !

Hello everyone,
Since I have 1 posts including this one on the XDA forum and couldn't post in the dev section, I guess it'll have to go here. I'd like to make a simple lock screen for my Galaxy S2 (Android 2.3).
It would be similar to the default pattern lock but I don't want a combination of dots. Instead, I want it to unlock at a single tap at a position on the screen, or maybe two correct taps.
Since the default pattern lock requires at least 4 dot connections, I couldn't use it. I also want it to show the background with no widgets, only maybe the notification bar.
Now I downloaded the Android SDK, but I have no experience with it. I have past C++ experience and I'm willing to learn, but I would like some directions and perhaps code snippets to get me started.
Inb4 NOT SECURE LOL: It's what I want to have.
tl;dr Mewants to make single or double tap lock screen with no widgets showing. Halp?
Try AppInventor ...It is a good way to learn to make apps for Android without really knowing the programming...all you need to know is hoe you you want your app to work...and since you have previous experience with C/C++..am sure the loops such as if/if-else etc in the pictorial manner won't confuse you..Good luck..Its a good Idea you have there..dunno if it can be implemented for sure though!
There are many AOSP Lockscreens available in the dev section anyway...check them out till then
Hi all,
is it possible to display new whatsapp messages directly on lockscreen? (like on ios? Display lights up if new message comes in and i can read message directly on lockscreen, thats what I want.
Bought some apps but nothing works fine :-(
Sorry for my poor Englisch...
For directly showing message on lock screen it depends on the ROM I think.
Is there any rom for my desire hd available?
I am using virtous quattro with ics at the moment.
You need to post this there.. I don't have desire. So, can't say.
I think widget locker is what you need. I use handcent for sms, and it gets through the lockscreen just like you describe.

The lockscreen code is either part of the framework.jar or the systemui... and if the device is not rooted, you cannot change it.
If you are a programmer, what you could try is to create a new window (for example with the WindowManagerImpl hidden class) trying different window types: window types define the layer where the window will be placed. For some window types you might need some special permission (for example I think TYPE_SYSTEM_OVERLAY will be placed above lockscreen, and it needs the SYSTEM_DIALOG permission)
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Currently there isn't an (lockscreen-)app that allows that. If you are a programmer you can always try to make it yourself, like mentioned above. But be warned, it's going to be a hell to create it
I´m not a Android programme
There is an option in the settings of whatsapp "turn on the pop up messages" check that box n u are good to go
i know this option, but it´s still behind the lockscreen...
Hey guys!!
This pop-up message, allows you to answer the message even with the lock screen. I think it's a lack of security because anyone can answer it if you forget your phone somewhere.
I've already try to talk with the developers of Whatsapp, but with no success.
On iphone you can only read and unlock to answer.
That's right, the popup feature when set to 'always' or 'only when screen off' shows messages and I think even allows replying from the lockscreen. You can't go view the full convo without unlocking though. This is the way it works at least in the latest beta from http://www.whatsapp.com/android/

Hi, as we all know androids notification is quite great. Apple however took this concept and in my opinion improved it. Many developer also seemd to like it and there are many apps on cydia that offers some customization.
What I'm looking for is an app or any way really that lets you customize the drop down window.
I'd like to b able to change wallpaper, change color of text, add widgets and info for fast updates.
I have spent many hours googling but I cant find anything like this. Is there any way to do this or does someone have thw ability to make souch an app?
I hope
I'm pretty sure access to the android notification can not be done through an app. Its like a core system process that probably can't be edited in real time. You would have to embed some sort of "notification drop down settings" into the OS.
But he is right Apple should not be ahead of us in any way..
Has no one left with common computer skills?
There's many topics on this here one just for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363528
Google and search button's seems to be extra these days
Good stuff I'll have to try. I don't know about everyone else about the search function, but I like to use my phone as a PC so the search does not work all that great through the android browser. Then filtering through the results.on this smaller than PC screen will give anyone a headache. Maybe the xda app is better idk..

I used my standard international SGS2 found results NP..
Cool, we're gettimg there.
However im looking for more than just a theme. Widgets and the ability to add my own background. I wamt the functionality, not just the look
Hi All,
First off, I LOVE themer! I've been using Apex Launcher for some time on my HTC OneX (rooted, ARHD 31.3 ROM) and I've often gazed with longing at the home screens that some people have designed using UCCW, knowing that I'll necer have the time (or the artistic flair) to design my own. Now I can!
But there seems to be SO many customization options on Themer, and I'm a little overwhelmed. For instance, I'm using a theme with an RSS feed as a central tile, but I'd love to be able to change that to a 'favourite apps' tile. I'm sure the option is there, but I can't work it out. So, has anyone developed/is working on/knows of a Themer user guide?
I work on a cruise ship and internet access is slow and expensive (£10 for 167 minutes!) so I really don't have time to surf around looking for answers to design questions.
SO, does such a guide exist? If so, please point me in the right direction. If not, is anyone up to the challenge?:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
The video is kind of like a user guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2474039

Thanks miles_muso for your kind words! Yes the video vhngu930 provided is a good one, but for your problem I can help here. See the thing is that you'd first have to delete that RSS icon and then hold down on the homescreen > Themer Actions > Favorite Apps. Now you'll have a massive heart (we're working on adding icon packs soon), which you'll be able to edit. If you hold down on the icon > edit > tap the icon, you'll be able to replace it with an icon image. You can maybe try here for icon images which may help, they by Jeppe Foldager and the small whites and darks should help for now: https://www.copy.com/s/DxsaXLatvBGf/Share/Icons
Hope this helps!
Hi guys!
I'm just enjoying the new open world of my very first Android device, after 8 years of iOs.
In certain ways- it really just very new and fresh and enjoyable-, and in other ways there are small annoyances which i hope i can find a solution with your help (or will just get used to them)
GENERAL, ANDROID, SEARCH
First of all,i'm a keyboard guy. Because of that, since IOS3, i wasn't using screens, but rather the search option, in my opinion there is really no better way to look for an app, but hit the first few letter, and choose from the narrowed list.
In pixel launcher, i was very happy with the search field, BUT, it's at the top on the screen and you have to touch it before keyboard comes up
I mean... COME ON. Seriously?
Phones are over 5.5" phone, this is really a pain in the butt.
I have a big hand, but it's impossible to reach with one hand.
Why not the keyboard comes up TOGETHER with the launcher?? So my question is:
Is there any app, which provide a search among installed apps, and can be reached easily with a shortcut (i mean like in IOS, -> swipe down, and type immediately | no hassle to tap the input field, then wait for the keyboard
NOTIFICATIONS
This one is very simple. Is there any way to make it like IOS?
I mean, in my opinion:
every notification should be one item (not grouped by programs)
when i click on one item, it opens the target itself, and not the program in which the target is (ie: it opens the received email, and not the email app)
Is there any hack / settings / app for all the above?
I would be just really very happy...
Thanks for reading me

Use playstore for downloading the ios launcher if the default android irritates you so much. For other stuffs, Google is your best friend

Perhaps you didn't read my comment properly. Since you had asked if there was an app with features like apple or whatever I said download ios launcher from playstore. Anyways I am out of here. Perhaps some other person may help you out.
You can download the "nils lockscreen notifications" app from play store and espier launcher pro from google
