Delete sms app - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi is there a way to remove/disable the messaging app on hero and have handcent as default? coz when i get a message both apps pop and its annoying

i don't know of a way to remove the built in app that doesn;t cause issues, but you can just turn the notifications off.
in the messaging app, press menu, and go to settings.
turn the notifications off and that will stop it from popping.
i think you'd still get the little green number on the icon though....

thanks dude, worth a try

Root Explorer http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-speedsoftware-rootexplorer-Fiq.aspx find urself a cracked one ..its everywhere
take R/W permission (icon on top)
then go to "system/app/Mms.apk" press and hold then, delete.. then reboot home (i use 1Kill ) it will get ur system together.
use that after uninstalling any preinstalled app it will not start ur undesired services (stop error messages)

[Q] Double SMS notifications

I have looked up and down on XDA and Google, they all say go to settings in the default messaging app and turn off notifications. I did all that, but I still receive two sound alerts and two visual notifications. I attached a picture. I use GO SMS, I just want to receive one darn notification not two!! Please help XDA Guru's!

are you sure you turn off? do you have another SMS notification installed? like SMS pop up,if dont just make sure disable in settings on default notification sms app.
uninstall and reinstall GO SMS
When you turn off the setting hit the back button NOT the home button. Pressing home will not comfirm the setting.
Do this and I can almost guarantee that it will work.

Notifications on Widgetlocker lockscreen

i have galaxy s2 with 2.3.6.I want notifications to be seen on widgetlocker lockscreen but i can't.I just see them on status bar of the phone that is at the top.
Need your help
Open the WL settings by choosing WL from app drawer, then use settings capacitative button on phone. Go to "popups" & make sure you have untoggled "hide sms popups."
EDIT: Meant to say go to "settings/popups."

That won't solve his problem. All that does is place a WL icon on the notification bar. He wants popups, I think.

Hmm. I don't know. I would suggest using the "report bug" option in WL settings menu to email the dev. He has been very responsive to my problems in the past. Sorry I couldn't help you more.
Just looking @ my gosmspro settings and I see that I had to specifically enable popups. What notifications are you wanting that you are not getting?
Sent by Tapatalk from my rotary phone, using sparks.
I got the SGS2 yesterday as well and have the same issue. No popups when i get a Text.
I was hoping to get the Notifications Bar. I have the SGS 1 and in the widget lockscreen i can pull the Notifications Bar down but with the SGSII this is not the case at least not with a PIN. I like to have a PIN on the phone but still be able to do simple things like read text messages or change a song. The sense lockscreen can do this.
I don't get why samsung made there lockscreen so plane that if you enable PIN,Password/Pattern you can no longer side to go in to message or call log. Was hoping the Notifications Bar would be a good work around but no go
I'm a little confused, so does the S2 have popup notifications for sms? I never seen them just get them in the little status bar...
I am running UnNamed rom, and using WL. On the WL screen, I have placed a scrollable widget, "Call Log Scrollable," available on the Market. It works fine, updating on top of the WL screen. (You have to have scrollable widgets enabled, but you can do this with a launcher program like Launcher Pro, without having to root.) I also have no problem with SMS popups from my GoSMSpro text program. These are all easy to use, and may solve your problem. None of this requires root.

Thanks this is somewhat what i was looking for. I see it has a widget, I would love it add it to my lockscreen but its just to big. Is there some small only that does not have all the buttons similar to the iphone?
Also I see the popup, but if i don't do anything an the screen turns off and later turn on the screen the popup is gone yet when you unlock it it's on your homescreen this is kinda annoyng which is why i think a small widget just on the homescreen would be best or similar

You can resize any widget on WL by opening the WL app from the app drawer, which will bring up the WL screen. Long press on the widget and you will get a popup menu allowing you to resize it. Be sure you are setting the icons as "widgets" and not as "shortcuts."
Not sure what you mean by being able to see the popup. Isn't that what you wanted to begin with - to have an sms popup appear on the WL screen?
Here is a shot of my WL screen.
can try downloading sms unread count from the market. i use that for calls/sms notifications.

What happens is that when you have Go SMS Pro popups active, the popup will show up on top of WidgetLocker just fine.
However, if you are reading the popup on top of WidgetLocker, and the screen turns off in the middle of reading it, turning the screen back on (in order to read the rest of the text message) will cause the popup to disappear and to have WidgetLocker go back on top of the popup.
Then when you unlock WidgetLocker, the popup is on your homescreen. It gets to be quite annoying.
It seems that Widgetlocker allows the popup to be on top only once, but doesn't let it continue to be on top. I've emailed the dev of WidgetLocker regarding this issue but never heard a response.
Another quirk is when you read the Go SMS popup on top of WL, then try to touch "open" to open GoSMS, it doesn't open GoSMS but instead goes straight to the stock lockscreen (and not widgetlocker), at which point when you unlock it, it then goes to Go SMS.
You can modify the WL screen timeout to a different setting from the system screen timeout, using the WL settings menu.
As for me, I don't want someone to be able to access GoSMSPro w/out going thru my lockscreen. Personal preference, I guess.

a bit of necromancy, but I happen to have same problem as OP. got free version of NOVA launcher, and widget locker (phone is rooted, and root helper is enabled). still no missed call/messages notification on lock screen. I even downloaded Tesla Unread, activated through locker widget settings, and still no notifications.
I'd appreciate any advice!

you should check a few things, first in the settings menu under battery you have you have smart background managment, make sure whatsapp is on the list thats allowed to run in background.
next go to app settings and look at the permissions whatsapp has, maybe notification permissions were blocked for some reason.
I also having a same issue. my XBS Helo seem cannot push notification for WhatsApp and Message. After few hour turn off the notification cannot popup the notification. it only pupup after a few minute I turn off. But once a few hour the problem come again. Please solve this issue XBS developer. is not just me but more members that using XBS having the same issue.
I'm using the china rom also included having that issues.
For messaging apps i setup the following and never had a problem:
- in Phone Manager -> permissions -> autostart check your app to let it start at boot
- in Phone Manager -> Battery -> Smart Background Management check your app to leave it running in background instead of killing it
- in recent apps drag down the app you want to lock it and never kill it
Doing these i never miss a notification from my apps.

You're not going to want it for the global rom, trust me. It's annoying and can stop 3rd party sms apps to stop working because it constantly posts an alert warning if you try to send a text in the background. If you have the global and are rooted, get app ops. It's pretty much the phone manager, available on the play store, and soooo much better than phone manager itself.

China ROM Notification issues

(new here and to OPPO)
Got the china ROM and I have quickly realized that notifications were locked up very tightly. Even after turning everything off/allowing notifications, notifications still don't work on lock screen.
I have:
Turned off Power Smart Saver
Custom Power Saving > Allow Background Running
Manage Notifications > Allow Notifications > Display on Lock screen
Battery > App quick freeze > Turn auto freeze off
Anyone have a solution or do I have to put up with the fact that the china rom is inferior
Which notification are you having issue with?
Did you disabled anything using adb?
I disabled com.coloros.athena
And im getting my Gmail and calendar notification somewhat reliable.

What does disabling com.coloros.athena do?
Edit:just found what Athena supposedly does, removing this fixed it for you?
Edit2:
Crowbar Asdfghjkl said:
According to running processes in the developer options, it looks like com.coloros.athena is responsible for killing background processes. I will have to look into this further tomorrow.
EDIT: I deleted com.coloros.athena together with com.coloros.safecenter and com.coloros.oppoguardelf. Looks like Tasker is running in the background now (though it is using a suspiciously small amount of ram compared with previous phones I have).

Using this I have got some more notifications to behave more normally, but things like SoundCloud player will sometimes decide not to show up, is there anything more I can do?

I actually had the same problem with my Oppo Find X. I use the Android Version 8.1.0 with the ColorOS Version V5.2.1.
Step 1: Go to Settings --> Battery --> Turn Off "Smart Power Saver" --> go to Custom Power Consumption Protection --> Select WhatsApp --> Tick "Allow Background Running"
Step 2: Go to Settings --> Battery --> Select "App quick freeze" --> disable WhatsApp
Step 3: On your Phone you have 3 Buttons, the one where you can go back, the other to get to Home Screen and the other one, where we can check our opened windows we use right now.
We need to open WhatsApp once, just to see it as an opened window, now use the third button i told you and use you finger to push the WhatsApp window DOWN. There you have the option to "Lock" the
App. That means, the App will be opened all the time without getting freezed and you can get messages. Remember to Manage the Notifications of WhatsApp in the Settings, like "Display on Lockscreen" and
"Display at the Top of the Screen"
I hope i was able to help you or other Persons. If you have questions, message me on: [email protected]

Issue with Viber / Whatsapp notification when they are closed

Hello,
I have OPPO Find X Automobili Lamborghini Edition and i have the following problem:
When Viber / WhatsApp are open, even in background i'm getting all notifications.
But if I close the apps - no notification. So i must keep these apps always open and I think that this is not normal behavior.
I have allowed all notifications from App>App Info>Notifications, from the apps' settings and in App info> Power settings.
Any ideas what else to do?

U have to go to the app management in settings, and look for the ws app or other app, enter to power save and allow in the background.
then go to batery, also in settings, enter there look for the quick freeze option, enter there and turn off the quick freeze for the app.
And the last movement, go to recents look for the app u want to recieve notification and then lock it, pull down the window and u will see the options to lock it or unlock it.

Hello, thanks for the answer. I think I have tried all these steps but no succsess. Are you sure that this really helps?
you have to lock the app by swipe down in Taskfunktion (long swipe up in the middle), you have to do it after every restart of the phone, but it works by me
