Is there a way to enable some sort of privacy options for the lockscreen widgets? Love having access to sms and email on lockscreen, but would prefer if there was some sort of privacy filter, like only display message heading or sender, not contents.
Might be a clue...
So I was continuing my search for a solution and remembered that I'd seen something similar before.

If you check out the 10th image here you'll see that the contents of the messages aren't visible. Any other ideas on how this was done?

Hi all,
I have a lot of quick contacts and after upgrading to froyo, they now have a speech bubble overlay on the icon that I'd like to disable/hide. What's the easiest way to go about hiding it?
Thanks
Also, anyone know if they plan to have quick contact photos change when Facebook profile pictures are updated?
Hey guys i have enabled the option of gestures under the templates subsection in messaging on cm10. Can someone tell me what exactly is the use of this option.. All i can see is the yellow gesture trace.
Thanx!
Use messaging templates
Define a messaging template. See messaging settings.

I want to know what this option is also. I looked in settings and dont see any explanation of what it is.
always when i open up viper or the eizo louder app on my nexus the privacy guard active thing will pop out on my status bar its very annoying how do i remove it?? on a carbon 4.3.1 rom.. if android 4.3 is ok no have this problem
I'm not sure if you're looking to remove just the notification or to undo the privacy guard setting for that particular app.
You might hit up http://www.xda-developers.com/android/app-ops-brings-granular-permissions-control-to-android-4-3/ for more information about the App Ops section rolled out in Android 4.3
Basically, to access the hidden feature, you have to create a shortcut to it. Then you can get in there and change the privacy guard settings for each app (location, personal, messaging, device). Each of those privacy groups has a number of individual settings.
Anyone know of a method to edit the lockscreen to show custom text?
For instance, on my old tablet, I could put my name, address and a secondary contact number on the lock screen so that in the event I forgot my tablet somewhere the person who found it had information to return it. I would like to have that option on my phone but I have not seen anywhere to that in the options and google has been no help either.
Anyone have any ideas?
I am surprised that this is not a default option.
Are you rooted? There are Xposed modules that allow it.
Hi there!
I don't know how they are called in the english original, but on my P6P I really miss the little dots e.g. on the Mail App when there are new messages.
In my options it has this option and it is on, but there aren't any of these dots. I really miss them, cause so you always have to pull down to see where there's something new when you are already using your phone.
Anyone a conclusion for me?
In the GMail app? I can't picture the dots.
That's called "Notification dot on app icon" and can be found in System Settings --> Notifications, down near the bottom.
It can also be turned on and off on a per-application basis by going into the application specific notification settings at System Settings --> Notifications --> App settings --> {whatever}, and switching on/off the option to "Allow notification dot" at the bottom.
But personally, I dislike this "feature". If the application notifies you, then why not click it instead of running around through your menus trying to find the one with the dot?
Thank you for the right name of what I'm looking for
But no I don't run around looking for these dots, I just open the phone and mostly there are WhatsApp or Mail news and I always have to look inside to see if there's anything new when I don't want to swipe down for my notifications.
The Settings are all set, but there are no dots for me!
Don't know if this matters, but I use the Nova Launcher.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You need to allow notification access in Nova for the dots or badges to appear. Go into Nova settings > Notification Badges and then tap the message at the bottom of your screen to enable read access to notifications.
You can also check if notifications have been disabled by going into System Settings > Notifications > Device and App Notifications and checking if Nova is enabled or disabled.
The hint with the settings brought me to the solution I think. It seems you need Nova Launcher Prime for the dots
