Use xposed framework choose status bar tweaks, then ongoing notification blocker. Check the box. Reboot. Profit.

I assume you're using the ongoing notification blocker in the GravityBox module, that's what it looks like anyway. I don't remember if that will block all of the notifications from the Play Store (app updates available, downloading, installed) or not. Another option would be to disable a couple services. It does require root and a paid app but it's what I've been using on my N5 and N7. I'll probably update when 5.1 rolls around. Maybe.

Need a better caller and text blocking app.

Use Google voice, it has a great blocking feature.

No need to install multiple apps and its free. Your phone won't be disturbed at all and the blocked caller will get a disconnected line message if they are calling.
Best root call blocker.

Kitkat: How to get widgets on Secured Lock Screen?

I was able to do multiple widgets on my (pattern-secured) lockscreen on 4.3 via an xposed module, however it looks like the author of that module didn't update it for kitkat.
I've done some searching and haven't figured out how yet ... anyone have any success in this area?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This only works if the lockscreen is unsecured. I'm talking about a secured lockscreen (like with PIN or Pattern lock).
If you can't wait for it to be incorporated into a rom

Phone app problem after Android Pie update

Hello guys. After the newest Android update I'm really annoyed about phone app. Below is the new look of it -
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And this is the old one which was way better as it split keypad + recent contacts and it was easier to make a quick call -
Is there a way to fix this without rooting the phone or using custom launcher?
Yea, flash back to Oreo
Pie is different, either get used to it or flash back
Or just install another phone app, I recommend Google. Phone app.

I've checked the Messages app (the Google one, the stock one is disabled), even force closed it, and yet this remains until I reboot the phone. Is this an OOS thing? Or A12 in general? Or maybe the app itself?
No one? Am I seriously the only one with this annoyance?
Never had this problem on any custom A12 ROM, or OOS12. Google message user here as well. Sorry I can't help much further than that.
Could be just a T-Mobile thing, maybe.

Question Method for removing the media controls in the quick tiles in OOS13?

I hate the media controls in the pull-down shade. In previous phones, I would just block notifications for Spotify and never have to see it. In OOS13 even if notifications are blocked, it still appears as a quick settings tile and also a lock screen notification. Worse, you can't dismiss it like you can in AOSP. There is absolutely no option. The only method is to go into Apps and Force Stop the application. Spotify doesn't like this and won't remember where you leave off in your play list.
Is there any method to get rid of it?
Root / Substratum / Magisk module / Xposed are all okay -- I'll take anything.
