Open the menu of your Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and in the next step tap on settings. Scroll over to the “applications” section and tap the button with “Messages”. In the next menu scroll down again to “Notifications” and tap on it. You will now find a section called “Preview Message”.
You will find two checkboxes. One with “Lock screen” and one with “Status bar”. Delete the check marks in it to deactivate the preview message on the lock screen and on the status bar.
In the future you wont get any preview messages displayed on your lock screen or at your status bar, when a new sms message arrives.
I'm not sure about "call preview" though.

Not sure, but I think what you're looking for is in the phone app. Go there, hit menu. Tap "Call" then "call-related pop-ups." Not sure if that's what you're looking for or not.

Double tap

On the jelly bean leak there is a motion called double tap and i was wondering how it works. Apparently in supposed to tap the top of my device? But when i do that it never works. Am i doing it wrong?

You must first enable the function under a menu in the setting called something like "Motion". When you have done that you choose which "motions" should enabled. All the double-tap does is take you to the top of a list. Whooaa!!

Yeah I know it takes me to the top of the page. It's enabled and everything but everytime I double tap the top of my device nothing happens.
According to the "Learn About Motion" in the motion setting page. It only works on contact lists, email list or email.

How can I change this Icon

I love the App but hate the icon.

If you pin it to a home screen or to your dock, simply long press until a small window opens next to the app icon. Tap on "edit" to get the Edit Shortcut window to open. Once it does, tap on the icon to select a picture or an icon pack. After selecting a new icon, select "save" and you're done.
WOW That was so cool.
Thanks

Step 1: Head to Settings menu and then choose Apps.
Step 2: Press the gear icon in the top right-hand corner and choose Default Apps > Assist & voice input.
Step 3: Tap the Assist option and choose None from the pop-up menu.
The current selection is Google, which means that the Google Now shortcut on the lock screen will be replaced. And now for that caveat: Changing this setting also disables long-pressing the Home button to open Google Now on Tap.
If you change your mind, you can always switch the Assist app back to Google.
Thanks you very very much.
I solve the problem.
Happy new week

Double Tap to Select Text

Alright. This is driving my nuts...
The double tap to select text has stopped working on my 975U.
Anyone has the same issue? Any way to get it back please?
Double tap? I select text by touch and hold, and then moving the handles that appear

I've been double tapping on words (on editable text) forever, dunno why it stopped working
Doesn't it vary from app to app? I still find copy/paste on Android a bit of a mess.

Nope, I tried for example the same version of WhatsApp on my gf's S10+ and the double tap worked on hers
In some apps the behavior changes. On the Firefox' adress bar you have to do it only once for example.

Doesn't work for me. Swiping down on notification just pulls down the notification panel. Do I have to disable the pull down notifications gesture first?
When using your phone and you receive a notification as a pop-up on your screen, you do a quick swipe down on that to launch the notification into a pop-up window
If you're trying to launch a notification from your notification pull down list.... then press and hold on the notification continuously until you get to drag it to the center of the screen to launch as a popup, or to the edges (if using an other app) to split screen the existing app with the notifying app!

Thanks but that first option doesn't work for me. Swiping down on the toast notification just brings down the notification bar. Had no effect on the active notification pop-up. I will try disabling that gesture and see if it behaves the way you describe. That would be a very helpful feature for me. Thank you.
I do have the swipe down gesture to pull the notification drawer too...
In my developer settings I have these 2 options enabled -
1. Force activities to be resizeable
2. Enable free-form windows
I think I figured your issue... you must have selected "detailed" and not "brief" as your notification style in your notification settings

Yes you are correct. Just changed to brief. I will try as soon as I get a notification. Thank you!

It works! Thank you great feature! Samsung really needs to go back to including 600 page manuals with these things! I wonder how many other useful features I still don't know about???
