Loud sound notification - Huawei Ascend Mate 2

Every once in a while, while idle, I get a notification in the notification bar that warns me not to listen to music too
loudly. Is there any way to disable that? It's just annoying. I didn't see anything in the normal or in the developer
options.

Nope. Unless... root... Afterwards I believe things like GravityBox could help with that.

Thanks, I was kind of figuring since there wasn't an option anywhere, it might require root. No biggie, just a little annoying, but
I can put up with it.

I think it's baked into Android, probably on the advice of Google Legal. It's on KK 4.4 on my Moto G, which I haven't bothered to root.

Calls automatically unlock screen, no slide to answer?

I'm going to be blunt here and say straight up that I don't remember how my phone used to answer phone calls......I know that sounds stupid but I literally do not know if I slid to answer, or pushed a button, or what....but here's my problem:
As of right now, if someone calls my phone while the screen is off, it will pop up with answer and ignore buttons. This has enabled me to "pocket answer" twice today, because when I try to get my phone out of my pocket, one of my fingers hits "answer" .......... surely it wasn't like this before? I have never had this issue.
How does a stock atrix handle calls when the screen is off? How do I get it back to the way it was? I feel like a full-retard for not knowing what it used to look like, but I cannot remember!
Call screen pops up with sliders. Remains locked afterwards. So you can answer calls without unlocking your phone. If you are managing to stroke the sliders in your pocket, who knows whats going on in there!
My phone has had sliders for answering/ignoring calls since I bought it on 4.1.26.
Do you have your phone set to auto answer? Settings, call settings, auto answer.
If the screen is on and a call comes in you should see "answer" and "ignore" buttons. If the screen is off and a call comes in you should see slide to unlock buttons for "answer" and "ignore". I don't think there's any setting to toggle to enable/disable the s2u for answer/ignore.
When you wake your phone do you see a slide to unlock screen or does it just go straight to the phone home screen? I had this happen to me and a factory reset fixed that up.

LOL! Well that's the thing, right now it doesn't have sliders, it acts like the phone was in use when the call comes through, I get the same UI, the answer and ignore buttons at the bottom...no sliders.....
how do I get my sliders back? I am using widgetlocker for my lockscreen.

disable widgetlocker and see if you still get the problem behavior. Here's an old thread describing your exact problem with widgetlocker being the culprit. It's over a year old so I would have thought it would be fixed by now. dunno.

It was indeed widgetlocker's fault. That makes me sad why would it change all of a sudden?
Yeah i had that problem with widget locker as well when i set the setting to disable all default lock screen. I was hoping they'd have this fixed by now...

I'm assuming widgetlocker was fine and dandy before the 2.3.4 OTA update right? Anytime there's a major release level update, e.g. 2.2.2->2.3.X, lots of things can go bonkers for 3rd party apps. Some things can break even with a minor release update, 2.2.1->2.2.2, but it's not as likely. It's just how it is in the world of software. fun huh?

I'm still on 2.2.2, I have another thread asking about updating hehe
oh . Well anyways you can always send an email to the widgetlocker dev(s). They probably already know about the issue but it doesn't hurt to send them a nice email about the problem.

How to disable increasing ringtone?

Its really anoying, i expected the sg3 to come with a disableing option for that, can anyone help?
Until some custom roms come out, I'd say no way. It was a 'feature' in the original sgs, and guess it is here too.
I really don't understand why would they do that, its suppose to be for me to choose whether i want my ringtone to increase or not...
Anyway, thanks for the quick answer!
I too find it annoying, especially since the ringtone I use is Living Colours "Living Colour" which starts with a loud 'Yeeeeoooowwwww', which is now a soft 'Yeeeooowww'. Oh well...

Wrong.
Here's what I found by using the "search" button..... The "search" button is a useful thing and not very hard to master.

[Q] Why do I get the stock android lockscreen randomly? Exploit maybe?

For some reason the stock android lockscreen comes on randomly for no given reason. Figured I'd post it here just for the fact maybe it could be some kind of exploit allowing stock android to run as opposed to the Samsung firmware without tripping knox. The phone is on MK2. It happens mostly after setting the phone down, a blue light will flash then about a second later the lockscreen pops up for about 2 or 3 seconds. Can't use it, but it displays correct info pertaining to my phone. Just something interesting I believe could be looked more in to unless it's already been covered.

Are you being serious or is this a joke?
Check out "Motions and Gestures" in your settings and do a little research about your phone. It can do some pretty cool things.

It has nothing to do with motions or gestures so yes I am being serious. Also why does it have a live wallpaper. I'm not new to this stuff I know what's normal and what isn't. If it's nothing just tell me so and I'll just ignore or tell me why it's doing it. That was my original question, not how do I enable motion and Gestures. It will also do it if the phone is just sitting there without being touched. It just comes on for no reason.

It has everything to do with "Motions and Gestures".
Settings - My Device - Motions & Gestures - Air Gesture - Quick Glance.

I saw somebody post the same thing you did in the Note 2 forums awhile back, it can be confusing if you didn't know about the feature.

[Q] How to kill the charging LED?

The question's been asked a few times before (including by me), but so far with no solution. I'm trying again, then:
Does anyone know an app or hack or tweak that will completely kill the charging LED (or kill the LED altogether - if only I could open the phone and disconnect it!)? Yes, I'm rooted, and yes, I've tried "LightFlow", "Charging LED", Light Manager", etc., but so far none work.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Just use custom rom and change color.......
Many thanks, but I don't want to change the colour, I want to switch it off completely.
I'm very happy with the stock ROM, and I would much prefer not to have to use a custom one. However, if anyone here is able to verify from experience that it would definitely be possible to switch off the charging LED completely under a custom ROM, then I guess I may have to consider doing that.

You can set it to black and it will match the body of the ultra. Why does the led bother you?
...............
That looks very encouraging, thanks. Can you tell me where the screenshot comes from? Is it an app, or part of the settings of a custom ROM, in which case which one? Many thanks.
As for why I want to switch it off: I have a desktop charger by my bed, the phone is positioned facing me, as I want. But when I'm sleeping I want complete darkness and the LED is a tremendous annoyance.

Thats a part of settings app with led options injected. It appears in most cm based roms.
Cheers. I do apologise if I'm sounding pedantic or difficult, but can you actually recommend a specific ROM? I'm not experienced with trying out ROMs, and I'd prefer not to install one, only to discover that it doesn't have the right settings, and so have to try another. Thanks very much.

Every notification waking screen, how do I stop this?

Probably a dumb question, but every single notification I get seems to wake the screen and I can't find a setting that explicitly disables this. I'm using a KIW-L24 running marshmallow.
Would any of you know how to stop this behavior?

Go into settings. Select Screen and passwords.
Turn off the option 'Notifications turn on screen'.
I hope this helps you. Take care!

Oh my goodness thank you so much! It was driving me crazy and I couldn't find it under any sort of notification setting.

I'm glad this solved your issue. Btw, No question is stupid. Nobody knows everything. If you never asked, u might never have fixed it.
When in doubt, ask. Take care friend!
