Hi, is there a way to get bigger voice mail notification on the screen?
I only get a very small icon on the left top notification bar that is very similar to the email notification. I looked everywhere on the phone settings but i got nothing.
Coming from the HCT sensation where you get a huge notification on the diplay this is just annoying....
Thanks in advance
I have known none. Maybe Samsung does not have it.
Someone would have to code it into the system. Other then that the android on the s2 is stock with touchwiz added, which means only small icons in the top for alerts.
"Missed It!" widget. make it as big as you like.

It should be in framework-res.apk then change the PNG to an image you want..

You guys can obviously reply with your favorite feature(s) of 2.2, but are there any more subtle changes than overall performance boost you guys noticed?
For me, I like how the 3G looks like now. It's mundane and stupid, but I like how it's more curved rather than blocky. I don't have 4G in my area so I'm curious if the 4G looks similar to the new 3G or if it retains the old look.
I appreciate the little touches of color HTC added to some of their icons I'm still poking around but that jumped out at me right off the bat.

Oh yeah, I thought something looked off when I had to do the unlock pattern for the first time.
Is it just me or did the notification bar change a little? I use handcent for messaging, and usually when I got two messages in a row the notification bar just had the handcent image at the top. Now it shows 2, 3 or however many unread messages I have.
Very nice. I'm loving my phone even more.
Yeah, I dig the new 3G logo - it takes it in line with how the Incredible looks. I also like the "default" picture for those who don't have a photo for Caller ID. The 3D glossy Android looks great. Also, having Facebook statuses and pending Birthdays when someone calls on the call screen is awesome too.

Oh, and I noticed (but just now confirmed it) the AM/PM symbol is slightly smaller than it was before; prior to the update, the AM/PM would be the same font size as the time, but now it's like 1-2 pts smaller.
I like that sound and display are seperated in the settings menu now.
I like my benchmarks A LOT
I like the flashlight, and I like that I can "Set Install Location"
I like that the settings>applications>manage_applications menu opens so fast now
I like the new market, and how they are using tabs in some system menu's (like the applications menu)

YES this was a HUGE, GARGANTUAN, MONOLITHIC improvement!!!!
Im on 4G now and its a squared off 4G with 3 possible bars for service, not sure what the old one looked like but it looks the same, but the new texting layout is somewhat nice, i liked the older style layout but i like how it tells you how many unread on in the top corner and how many texts you have going with each person, now it looks like a high score table to see who i can text the most in a month... haha
Theres one of these small changes I absolutely hate. Remember that cool looking 3Dish bag icon in the market (top left). It now looks the same as the app icon. Which is crappay!

Do you use Handcent? I thought the default messaging program didn't have a visible count on sending messages. Is this a new feature of the default messaging app or are you using Handcent? The Handcent notification bar icon has the little green circle with white font for number of unread messages.
Sounds like the 4G bar looks the same - it was not as squared off as the 3G symbol - I think only because the 4 seemed wider than the 3.
I don't notice much of a difference. Sence is still the lethargic turd it always was.

Props to HTC sense is bomb
Oh yeah I forgot to add that I love how the security pattern has a timer on it like the Droid X had when it launched (I think I read that at least) - you can set it to come on after a certain number of minutes rather than every time the screen is shut off!
HUGE plus in my book. I want the security there in case someone steals my phone, but not make me swipe it every single time while I text with someone over the course of 10 minutes.

It's not in settings, its an app in the app drawer. It's called "SetInstallLocation"
the multi touch keyboard is awesome. even though I'm using the cm6 one

One thing I noticed is the vibrate feedback from hitting the buttons -- it seems shorter and softer.
I know I already said this but DAMN I love how the security pattern doesn't require you to enter it now after EVERY single time you turn the screen off.
Even Gmail looks a little different. A lot of the physical look of apps seem to be more polished looking too.
Hi,
I'm using stock ROM and stock messaging app and have selected in the options not to display the name or content if new messages in status bar but it doesn't work and still displays it!!
Any ideas please?

Is it any surprise I'm getting rid of my one x literally less than one week after buying...have been quite disappointed with the one x and 52 people read this without any response or confirm if they have a similar issue or not...it would have took 30-60 seconds!
Should have stuck to Samsung's...we'll unfortunately I've already sold my s2 so i guess it'll have to be the new beast s3...
Thanks to those a few that did help on a few things but generally the one x forum is a little cold for me compared to the Samsung just like the HTC phones!

The problem you posted is a little obscure, I've not seen it mentioned in any other threads, perhaps nobody has come across the same issue yet? If people don't know what the answer is then they won't post. The fact that it had so many views and not one response suggests that this is the case and it's not a case of the forum posters ignoring you.

Are you talking about the option Messages--->Menu--->Settings--->Notifications-->Notification Preview, untick the option but the message will still be shown if you pull down the status bar??
From testing on my phone, when you untick the option, and get a text message...I get no preview on the lock screen, the message icon on the status bar (with no preview) but the message is there when you pull down the status bar. To truly get rid of it (no message in the pull down status bar) is to disable Received Notifications but that's counter productive as you get no alerts!
I will test on my Xperia Arc (when I get home from work) and see if it does the same (I have a funny feeling that it will do the same)
I beleive it maybe a generic Andorid thing in terms of messages appering on the pull down status bar (perhaps the more experienced guys and clarify)

Hi thanks that's correct...i still see the preview when you don't with the same settings!

It's not that no one has anything to say, it's that no one actually cares about the preview - it's MY phone so I want to see the messages. Do you share your phone? If not, it's a complete non-issue IMO

So you still see the preview on your lockscreen? Or in the status bar? Because that setting doesn't change the status bar preview, just the lockscreen one. But if in the Personalize settings you have the lockscreen type set to notifications preview, it'll show regardless of the messaging settings.

Use GO SMS Pro or Pansi SMS from the Play Store. They're far better then the default SMS app anyway, you'll find many more actually useful options along with your privacy setting, and they also have individual settings for specific contacts, so you can choose only messages from a certain contact to not show in the status bar, if that matters. Works both while using the phone and in the lock screen. The individual settings feature is included with GO SMS and is a plugin for Pansi SMS.
And don't be so impatient. It's not that everyone who reads a thread has to have an answer and reply. Don't go by how many views the thread has got and wait a day or two. There have been so many threads I've read for which I don't have an answer. It's not that people don't care, they'll most certainly help if they know how or have experienced the same thing. Almost everything can be solved, being impatient won't help. Similarly, why would you want to be hasty and get rid of such an awesome phone, that too over such a tiny issue? IMO, phones should only be returned if there's a problem hardware-wise. Not because of app-related problems or operating system problems. There is almost always an (often better) alternative for these things (apps & ROMs).

Hello, problem will remain if he keeps the stock app.
I had two notifications using handcent SMS.
I had to disable the notification from the stock app and only activate handcent notifications and it works perfectly now.
But the stock app is always living by its own without notifying me anything.
You have different notifications : mails, SMS, facebook, twitter, etc.
Which ones are still remaining ? SMS ? Mail ?
And then you also have the reports from sending SMS, this should be also disabled
or you will have receive reports for each SMS you send ...

The notification panel should act like stock.
A screenshot would be useful as i'm not quite sure what you are referring to
i took two photos
when i get a message (facebook, whatsapp, etc)
and slide down from the top to open what i call the notification bar
i get this control panel (like you can see in the picture)
when i press the icon on the top right of the screen
it switches to the notifications (as you can see on the second pic)
now my question is if there a way to cancel the control panel and leave it just for notifications?
keep it simple you know
thanks for the help

In Settings - Toolbars there should be an option "Quick pulldown" which allows the right edge of the status bar to pull down the quick settings.
Uncheck the option
I just recently rooted to 4.3 and I just noticed today that my lock screen clock is off center. It appears to be aligned to the left. Has anyone else noticed this or know of a fix to align this?
thanks!

I see the same thing( non-root ). I couldn't find an option to center it.
I did set the Clock size from Small to Large in the Lock screen widgets, and it made it look a little better.
Clock Left Alignment
Yeah I shiver every time I go to unlock my phone with the clock off center. I have looked around a bit to see if I could change the settings but as said before it only gives the option to change Size and add date. I just received a text message and it shows on my lock screen and I can see why they put it more to the left but if I turn off the text preview I thought it may correct the clock.
I just updated this morning and will search around but I am still trying to figure out a few things. If anyone has a fix for the following i would <3 you!
1. I hate the text messaging images now(picture of contact) any way to turn off?
2. I want the status bar text preview but not on my lock screen. Option combines the preview for the status bar and lock screen.
3. I dont want the notification box to open on my lock screen. "New Message"
If anyone has any advice or would like to tell me to suck it up please let me know!
Anyone notice that when you long press icons with notification badges on them you no longer see the notifications just the shortcuts?
I really enjoyed the ability to long press icons to see a notification description that I could click to access or swipe away. The one thing Android did way better than iOS. Now when I long press I just see shortcuts meaning I have to go in the app and sometimes I don't even see what the notification is for. This is really disappointing.
Anyone know when this functionality disappeared? Or did I change something in my settings by mistake? Is there a way to get this functionality back?
I'm using the s20 ultra SD with the one UI launcher if that helps.
Any help would be appreciated.

My Savior! You my friend are a prince among men. Thanks a million.
I recently did a factory reset to start fresh because restoring from a Samsung backup made my battery pretty awful. I totally forgot about that settings.
Thanks again.:victory:
