Does anyone know if there's a way to disable the screen turning on when receiving an SMS? I would really like to disable this if at all possible.
not sure if it's what you're looking for but if you install sms popup (which is a fantastically simple app) it's one of the many options that you can configure ...
hope this helps ...
This didn't prevent the screen from turning on. The basic SMS app seems to still turn it on.

the way this normally works, is you install handcent which does have this option. then you go in and disable to stock messaging app completely, so that only handcent or your replacement choice controls text behavior.

What you'll notice is that even if you disable the notifications on a the standard messaging app, the app still runs in the background as it's also handling all the incoming DB writes from what I can tell. Samsung re-wrote the messaging app which always runs (and can't be removed) and in this app is the control to turn the screen on. That's why I can't figure out how to disable it without breaking SMS functionality altogether.

Or you could just go tweak the code to stop it waking it up?

Or I could give you an apk to try?
No idea if it will work. Delete the odex and apk for mms.apk, after backing up, and try this one

BACK UP MMS.APK and MMS.ODEX before you do anything =D I can't test due to O2 uk being idiots

Thank you sir, I'll give this a go as soon as I get back to my main computer (adb/drivers/etc).
Might be a late reply, but did it work ? Trying to get an Mms.apk for Galaxy S1, that doesn't turn the screen on.

I recently started having this problem where I keep getting 2 notifications for texts after using 2.1
I use handscent sms and turned off all notifications from the default messaging app but they both still notify me of a new text. Its annoying itll vibrate twice, ringer twice. plus I cant even get the default sms thing in the notification bar to go away unless I manually clear it. Never had this problem for the months I had this phone before the update.
Anyone come across this or know how to fix it?

Google always works.
google brought me right to this post. so at least the next guy with this problem will be able to fix it if anyone has an answer....? I cant be the first one with this stupid double notification.
seemingly, after disabling notifications, removing the messages shortcut from the homescreen does the trick, although i havn't tried this myself.
you wont loose the messaging its still in your APPS list.
just tried it and it does work

I had the problem for the longest time. I eventually found out that it was the SMS widget in Beautiful Widgets that was causing the problem, even though you hadn't activated it. Uninstall Beautiful Widgets and see if it works.

Simply open messaging and select setting by pressing menu key...
Disable notifications...!!!
Worked for me. ;-)

i had the same problem a while back too. and by disabling the notifications it still didn't work. what i ended up doing was clearing the SMS center number under network settings and retyping it in manually. worked like a charm

Hi is anyone else having this issue with RR 2.6
1) When you are in the Messaging app and you have a message open for example, if you receive a new SMS whilst the messaging app is open, you dont hear a SMS notification?
2) Also holding down the power button to bring up the power menu, i select silent mode, yet i still hear some sounds like calendar notifications etc. Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong?
Ah hang on ive figured out number 2. Still have the no notification of new SMS prob though.
3) ive noticed that when charging, when it gets to 100% it doesnt say fully charged. Just keeps on charging. Anyone else had this?
Ok update:
2.6.1 seems to have resolved the motification sound when messaging app is open.
Another issue is why is the messaging apps box where you type the text only only line and there is no enter key?
I take it no one has come across the SMS notification thing then? It just doesnt make a sound when you have the messaging app open???

Happened to mine too when I was with RR v2.6 at least once a day. But now it's all gone after updating to RR v2.6.1.

If you open up the Settings in your MMS app, you can scroll down to 'Notifications' and make sure 'Vibrate' is set to always.

In Forth Bar Jellybean Fusion Beta 3.2,when i connecting wifi,T-mobile call is display and can not turn off.I try to restart but useless.
It has been brought to my attention this fix does not stick through reboot or wifi cycle. I will mess around with the editor some more however I fear without modifying the framework it may not be possible to completely be rid of it. Moderator can lock the thread please.
have discovered how to remove the constant notification that wifi is off. You must be rooted (thanks to the devs who made that happen) and have SQLite Editor installed.
It is available from the Google Play Store for 2.99. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.sqleditor&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5zcGVlZHNvZnR3YXJlLnNxbGVkaXRvciJd
Open SQLite, allow root access and navigate down to "Settings storage". Click it then click "settings.db" then "secure". The last line (351 on my device) is entitled wifi_watchdog_on and the value is listed as 1. Click on this then click the pen in the upper center corner to edit the value. Change it to a 0 (zero) and click save. Back out of the app then pull down your notification shade. Long press on the *&#%$* wifi nag until "app info" is shown. Click it then select force close. It will give you the standard warning but don't worry about it.
After these steps are taken the nag will be gone! Hope it helps someone who is irritated like I was.
Thank you for this! Worked perfectly

Thanks!
Thank you very much!!
This worked, but once I turned wifi back on it came back once I disconnected. Anyway to make it permanent?
Doesn't stick for me, the nag comes back and the setting goes back to 1 after a reboot...
is there a way to do this for the blocking mode nag as well?

coming back on for me as well.
Can this be done with the FREE SQLite Manager app?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsImNvbS54dWVjcy5zcWxpdGVtYW5hZ2VyIl0.
If you forcefully uninstall the WiFi nag app, will this prevent it from relaunching everytime you reboot or turn WiFi on?
The app info of the wifi nag said it was Android System

Well... When you long press on the wifi nag on your shade, then choose app info... it's a part of android system that you're stopping... don't know if uninstalling it is possible.
Hmm...I wonder if it's a part of the TouchWiz framework. Hopefully someone can make a hack for it which removes the Ongoing Notification, and also puts the WiFi toggle back in the Notifications Control Panel where it belongs.
You can put the WiFi icon and whatever else you want (I add a flashlight also) to the taskbar with the app "notification toggle" from the playstore.
I have used this temporarily on a few different phones while I was waiting on Custom ROMs to make their appearance.
It works perfectly.
This doesn't stick.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
Thanks everyone. I have updated the op and will continue to explore some way to make this stick.
i dunno about the toggle, but the wifi notification is probably an edit in services.jar

what am i doing wrong?
I'm running 4.4.2. No matter what I do, I can't get my the stock messaging app to stop sending me notifications. I set my default SMS app to Go SMS Pro, but I still get notifications on my lock screen. I tried enabling it and turning off notifications, but I still get a notification on my lock screen.
What am I missing?

A. I would avoid go sms like the plague.
B. I have them disabled in the stock app (needs to be set as default to do it) then set what ever app you want as the default but make sure all messages are read in the default app before switching.

I did exactly that but when I get an SMS the stock messaging icon shows up on the lock screen, and dragging it towards the "lock circle" opens up the stock messaging app.

What device do you have? Custom rom?
I have a Posh E500 (poshmobile.com/catalogue/titan-hd-e500/). It's not the greatest phone in the world (and almost certainly the worst named), but it gets the job done. Anyway it has it's own custom Posh ROM and I recently rooted it using Kingo. Hope that helps.

Then I am betting that it is the OS that is preventing it. What you cold try as you are rooted. You could try freezing the APP with Titainium backup. Not sure about Kingo as I never use that myself. But try freezing the app. You will need to pro version. Or you could just delete the messaging apk, but make a backup of it just in case.
I tried renaming the Messaging apk (MMS.apk). But all that did was disable the app itself, and not the notifications. I would still get a Messaging icon notification on the lock screen, only this time if I dragged it onto the lock icon it would attempt to open the app and then fail.

Thats because it was still there. Try removing it and rebooting. Just make a copy of the apk somewhere so if it breaks something you can put it back.

Then it is built into their os. This is part of the issue with custom OEM roms. You could try using a different lockscreen.
Got it. It might be difficult, but I think I'll try putting a new ROM on it. Thanks for your help.
