[Q] HTC Desire S screen remains off when SMS arrives with Go Locker - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I started using Go Launcher and Go Locker sometime back on my HTC Desire S (Android 2.3.5, Sense 3).
Previously when a new SMS arrived, the screen would light up and show the message on the locked screen, from where I could send a "Quick reply" without unlocking the phone or going into the SMS app (using Handcent).
After applying Go Launcher and Locker, the screen does not light up when an SMS comes, though the notification sound and the LED blink is still there. So i need to unlock the phone and then reply, if needed.
Also previously when listening to audio, when I pushed the Volume up or down button, the screen remained off, but with these apps now the screen lights up when using the Volume buttons.
Others also having similar issues? Any way to change these settings ?
Thanks

anyone ?

[Q] Screen shuts off only in applications

I have a sprint Samsung Galaxy S3, rooted...Int he past week or 2, whenever I am in an application (Chrome, Yahoo, GTalk, etc) The screen will sometimes randomly shut off. It just goes black, i can still touch and use whatever app I was in (I can hear the sounds of clicks, etc) and the buttons stay lit on the bottom. When I press the lock button it makes the lock noise. When I then unlock it, i get to the lock screen with no problems. If I unlock into whatever app I am running, the screen will almost immediately shut off again, or sometimes after a few seconds, or sometimes it waits until i touch the screen. BUT, if I unlock into a system app (messages, phone, homescreen, etc) the problem doesnt happen.
I have tried adjusting all the display settings for screen timeout, rebooting, battery out, killing services, etc and nothing seems to work.
Any ideas?

are you on stock ROM? if not it may be a problem with your ROM
try a reset and flash ROM again or flash another ROM

[Q] questions about gallery, and a few rom issues...(NOS M7)

Hi all I would post this in the development forums but I don't have 10 posts so...
I'm running Nos M7 rom and LK kernel. Every time i access the vertical quick settings and change any setting, the phone automatically switches to silent mode and the vibrate toggle doesnt do anything. I have to use the volume buttons to correct the profile back to vibrate. edit:: i dont have to change a setting, simply accessing the vertical settings puts the phone in silent. If i change the vibrate slider to on, it says on, but the phone still displays silent. It wil only go between normal and silent unless I use the volume buttons.
Secondly, every time i exit the camera, the screen brightness gets set to 100%. I have to go to quick settings to turn it back down to what it was before (I don't use autobrightness).
Also, I am not a big fan of the HTC gallery so I installed Gallery 3D (found apk on forums somewhere). It works fine however i cannot use gallery 3d to display a picture out of an MMS message unless i save the picture first. If i click view image without saving it loads the gallery and just displays a black screen with the zoom in/out buttons. Is this normal or a bug? HTC gallery displays unsaved MMS attachments properly.
Lastly out of curiosity, is it possible to get an AOSP lockscreen on the M7 rom? I'm imagining not but I coudln't find anything specific on this.
Thanks!

[Q] How to Turn off Auto-screen on when getting text

I've searched everywhere on how to do this but can't find anything -- When your screen is off and you get a text the screen turns on...Where is the setting to turn this off??? My notification LED is enough for me to know I have a message, don't need my screen always turning on.

I don't have my edge yet, in the mail so I can't tell you on the stock messenger app, but on my current phone i use the app Textra (which is great, I highly recommend trying it out) and in the notification settings there is an option specifically for this. Can set it to turn the screen on when receiving a text or leaving it off. there is also an option to turn the screen on except when the phone is set to silent.

I just posted this same question, I've turned off the setting in the message app to "turn off pop up display" but the screen still turns on with a pop up message...I don't know what's going on lol.
I've been through the settings a dozen times. There doesn't seem to be a way to stop this from happening on stock messenger. I can confirm that using a 3rd party (I use go sms) stops it from happening once you set it as default messenger.

Yeah. I ended up getting Textra before you posted this - liking the customizable options so far. I've always used GoSMS in the past and Hangouts but this one is a bit cleaner.

Double confirming this. With Samsung's Messages app the screen turns on for me, as it did when I had the S3, though it's more bearable now that I can unlock the S6 with my fingerprint. Using Verizon's Message+ screen does not turn on. This is really the only strike against Messages for me. Message+ is a little more sophisticated, but not as clean looking. I think I still prefer Messages because it's cleaner and I like the vibration notification better (two short bursts instead of one long). Again, the screen turning on isn't a deal breaker for me because the phone stays locked without my fingerprint.
solution
This issue is because Samsung put in their own text messenger called messages rather than using the Google made one called messenger while using the same icon. You can download the original messenger off of the Google Play Store just search messenger and look for the one by Google. Once you switch to the one by Google that should not turn your screen on anymore, you may have to change a setting to make it that way. Since I installed it haven't had the issue at all.

go on to notification settings, scroll to messages, turn off allow notifications.
then go on messages app. click more then settings then notifications and turn the setting off.
the screen will no longer light up when you get a message.
the LED will flash though so you know. also if you use nova you can set the badge app notification so it will show when you receive a message but again the screen will stay off.

I bet what you're dealing with was my problem too. I would send a text, turn the screen off but leave the messaging app up and then when they responded the screen would come back on and the phone would think I read the message since it opened right back up to the same conversation. The only way for me to fix this was to turn instant lock on so when the screen came back on it went to the lock screen instead of completley turning on the phone. This is a stupid feature from Samsung IMO and they have always done it.. Problem is that I like their messaging app (especially the quick reply and favorites at the top) so I don't want ot switch to something else... hoping someone comes out w/ a modded app like they have on other Galaxy's. Just not sure if I'll be able to install it since I have the Verizon varient and likely will never get root.

hmmm. one thing ive noticed is my watch would get notifcations and wouldn't vibrate if i didn't have the app set to vibrate on my phone. IE Bleacher Report is silent on my phone so I get a card but no vibrate on my watch. not sure if it's supposed to be like this though as I'm new to android wear.
Guys I think I've figured this out!
Okay so my text my messages are set to vibrate only but I only get the vibrate on my watch if I have a ringtone set. If its on silent it won't work.
SOLUTION:
To fix this set your default text messaging app's notification to "default notification sound" and your main notification sound under your phones main settings to "silent" ever since then my watch vibrates and the screen lights up every time!

[Q] g2 mini lollipop lock screen problem for d620r

it happened a couple times....
i lock my screen with knock mode, but sometimes when i press the power button to see the hour, there is no knock mode and i can unlock the screen by drag!!!
also sometimes the sound (for sms or alarm) changes opposite and the sound for sms is the alarm sound...
thats all i have to say at this time... multitasking goes very well and battery too...
v20c-op1-hq software version
happened this to anyone?
I havent any problem like that. Just screen turn on when sms comes and my app social media just stopped when im not using my phone. Maybe, reflash the rom can make it normal
