    Thread Any way to get this goofy looking goof off my main screen?

    I was tired of all the suggested content for subscription services I don't use (i.e. Disney+), so I went with "Apps only mode". But I still get this suggested content. Ok, I can understand that I can't get around it, but this is the ONLY thing it ever shows. I am sick of looking at this idiot...

    Hi there: I am on the most recent 11 Beta. But on the previous Beta, as well as stock 10, and still now I am having a problem with video recording. It will stop recording for no apparent reason. I video record while I am driving occasionally, like a black box, and the video will repeatedly...

    Post Does this phone only work well with stock launcher?

    I've been using Nova from the get-go and no issues like you've described. Have you looked thru all of Nova's settings? Nothing to do with Transitions? What about trying to change the phone's animations all to 0.5x?

    Thread Wake screen for notifications question

    I have my phone set for screen to wake when a notification comes in. Is there not a way to have the notification appear at intervals until I dismiss? The way it works now is, screen will wake when a notification comes in, and stays on briefly, then goes off...and that's it. Am I to understand...

    Post On-screen notifications with screen off?

    I tried this and was unable to get it to work. All I want it to do is light up the edges of the screen when the screen is off and a notification comes in. I had all the settings looking like they were correct. I chose difference colours for different apps, but no go. It wouldn't even work when...

    Post On-screen notifications with screen off?

    Thank you! That's the old app I was referring to that I used to use. Glad you still have a copy. I've just installed it, but for some reason the icons a super small. Just like mini-squares, no matter what I do.

    So, the LED is way too tiny for my aging eyes (also cannot get it to change colours with Lightflow anyway). I am looking for some sort of app that can show a notification on the screen when the screen is off. I don't want the screen to turn on. I just want some sort of icon to show up. I used to...

    Yeah, after our last exchange I noticed that. I ran that script and rebooted, but still no go. Have tried a different DNS changers app too, and get the same result.

    No, it isn't activated/started. And if I try, it won't let me hit "ok". And when I exit out of the app, that activation box pops up once in a while, and I have to hit cancel to get rid of it. I just wanted to check that what I did in terminal emulator was correct, and the settings I did in the...

    I mean, it's great that it has an LED. I just find it pretty dim, and when the phone is in my car dock during the day, I really cannot tell when it's flashing when the sun is out. Any way to boost the brightness? (yes, I have the setting set to 100%). Thanks!
