I've never seen that either, but everything listed is part of the phones system so I'd accept.

Anyone like to customize their phone? have you tried Themer app by mycolorscreen? How to apply Android themes the easy way - YouTube easiest theme app I used so far.

hi, i have 2 more things that i wish someone knows how to solve:

1. didn't find a way to make add a notification SOUND when an SMS is sent successfully (i don't want a notification message, just a SOUND).
2. is there a way to disable the vibration during ALARM? really ruins the delicate music i put to wake me up

thanks.

#1 Open your text messages to the main screen (the one with all your received texts) go to the settings, then notifications and scroll to the bottom and uncheck the sent message notification and check notification sound.
#2 I'll get back to you if I can find it. My alarm doesn't vibrate, but I believe I shut it off some how.

EDIT - The vibration setting is under each individual alarm setting. Click on your alarm like your setting the days to ring alarm, it's at the bottom, uncheck the vibrate box.

many thanks!
but something might be buggy in the first case, i DID what you told me in the sent messages options, and now again tried to send an SMS but still no sound when it's sent ... what am i missing? (maybe reboot?)

found the alarm vibration thingy, thanks.

p.s
is there a way to disable the horrible start up sound when rebooting & turning the phone back on?

Check the sent notification box too, just tried it on my phone. That's the only way I get a sound. It shows up in the notification bar for a second and goes away by itself. And the sound on start up I'm not sure if you can turn it off.

Not sure if it's a bug or not but, the notification just pops up on the bar for a second and goes away by itself. You don't have to clear the notification manually.

oh, one more thing i stumbled upon:
while i charge the phone in the car, i noticed that the screen doesn't go off at all.
is this a permanent state while charging or is it a bug, or is there somewhere to change it?
cause i haven't found an option yet (searched in "power", "display", etc..)

i'm using just a simple lighter-to-usb charger.

 

[RebeccaCool]

Then, I'm not sure about that I've had mine plugged in to the lighter but I usually do so while it's off. Getting ready to take my son to work, I'll check it out and get back to you.

I left mine on when I plugged it into the lighter and it went off after a minute. Do you have Daydream on?

Your Welcome, Daydream is like a screen saver it keeps the phone awake.

#Tip

You can turn off blink feed now in 4.3.
Personally I really this feature, don't know why some people want to disable it

I disabled it because it doesn't update properly and I find it annoying.

There's nothing annoying about news feed. BlinkFeed is genius. Really nothing else comes even close.

I find it utterly pointless. Maybe it works better outside the UK. The ability to turn it off in 4.3 - now THAT is genius.
