[REQ] MMS notification tweak - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

This is just a real small nitpick, but I think it would be a convenient little tweak. I'm wondering if there's a way for a developer to create a working notification tweak for the SMS/MMS notifications so where it shows the message in the notification bar, but still says "New Message" on the lock screen.
I know there's a "preview message" option in the settings, but you can differentiate the two individually. So I guess what I'm asking is a workaround to select preview mode for the notification bar and lockscreen separately.

Anyone?
I agree. I have been wondering the exact same thing. I have been wanting to keep my message private to users that can access the lock screen yet quickly be able to read the message from the notification panel.

I third this motion...

The notification panel can be pulled down without unlocking the phone, so that was probably the thinking behind having both tied together.
Does the message still show on the screen with patter or pin unlock styles?

I would have thought that by disabling the notification it wouldn't show on the screen but it does for me but I'm currently just using swipe so that could play into it.

[Q] How to stop text messages from appearing on unlock screen?

Is there a way to help prevent any potential domestic issues with a random text from an ex, or other message that you might not want seen by disabling text message notifications for appearing on the unlock screen?
I don't mind the little notification in the task bar thing, but not liking the large "Hey I Love You" appearing out of the blue from a past lover while the phone is out on the counter.
thats stupid tbh you shouldnt have to hide that **** from ur current 'lover' if you actually love them, theyll understand.

Thanks for the helpful response....
Do you mean when the text message is displayed at the top in the notifications bar? Or, I know on certain versions of Sense a large window pops up in the middle of the screen showing the text. I know you can turn off the second, in security or privacy or something similar to that (If this is it, and you can't find it I'll restore my Sense ROM and find it exactly). I'm not sure about the first, other than disabling notifications completely or changing to a different messaging app.
The top one in notifications bar is fine, that can be disabled in the message settings. Its the large window with the contact name and full text message appearing...must be tied in to sense. I'll see what else I can find, but appreciate your help!
I went and found it specifically Menu > Settings > Privacy. Uncheck the first box.

Thanks man. Appreciate it. Under Privacy there is "Display Message Text" Show missed call and message text on lock screen
You're welcome!

Annoying Notification on Lockscreen

I am rooted, and am curious if there is any way to replace the version of the lockscreen that comes with the s4 with a version that doesn't have the annoying yellow notification that pops up every time. I tried Nils and Dashclock, but the default notification takes focus and I have to swipe back to get to the notification screen I want to see. There doesn't seem to be a way to disable the stock notification, so I was wondering if it is possible to replace it so that these programs can work like they are supposed to?

What "yellow notification" are you talking about? Are you talking about that kind of "sunburst" effect when you first turn your screen back on? If so, you can change that at Settings> My device>Lock screen>Unlock effect

It's not a transition effect, it's a notification of a missed call or a new text. I have Nils notification widget as the only window on my lock screen. When I get a new text it opens up another window and shows me a notification of who texted me. I have to swipe back to see the Nils notification widget. I haven't been able to find out how to turn it off that default notification and still recieve notifications through other widgets. I have seen threads at adroidfourms with people asking the same question, but there doesn't seem to be an easy fix.

HEADSUP "popup" text notifications

I searched and cannot find the answer likely because it probably requires root.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge with T-Mobile.
My goal is to have my notifications make a noise when they come in (mainly talking about text messages) but NOT display the caller name and context of the text message.
This is a feature called "headsup" in Lollipop I understand that. And there is even a place in settings that says "turn off pop-ups" but it does not work.
So root or no root, how can I still get a sound and maybe even a visual notification but NOT the name and content of the incoming text message. Gets pretty annoying if watching a movie, etc and for privacy reasons of course.
Thanks!
You mean on lock screen?
No not the lock screen, that is easy to block but the actual popup that happens every time a text message comes in. It is part of Lollipop and I have tried all the settings I can think of and researched it on line.
Pretty sure I need to root and use some rooting app or settings.

You can do it so you only get notification on the messaging app's icon. If that would be OK. No root needed
Go into
Settings
Applications
Application manager
Then find messaging
Un tick 'show notifications'
To get sound notifications back, download this app
Hope this helps

Huawei disabled that feature from the last couple of updates for all devices citing privacy issues.
Do you know if there is any way of getting around that, is there any third party software that could re-enable expanding notifications on the lock screen - it's one thing I really miss having just upgraded from a Nexus 5X!

Yea i have novalauncher but it doesn't affect lock screen. i think you need lockscreen launcher but I don't want to change. Huawei should give the option in lockscreen settings
If you have face unlock enabled, go to settings - security - face unlock and disable smart lock screen notifications
Honor\huawei has indeed screwed this up. faceunlock or pin or etc is not the problem.
The problem is at lock screen, you can see a notification for whatsapp
If it is just a single message, you're fine. You can read it.
But if it is multiple messages or multi line, you can't, as it only shows amount of messages notifications, and the FIRST line of the message.
You can't expand the notification to read the rest. You end up having to unlock and go into whatsapp to read it.
*Sometimes you just want to read the messages, without ending up showing yourself last online in WhatsApp........
Ifyou have enabled face unlock and swipe to get to the launcher you can press the power button, the phone will recognize your face and then you can pull down the notifications.
Same if you want to skip a song at spotify etc.

Can't. It doesn't work.
Steps.
1. Press power button or lift phone to start face unlock
2. U can see whatsapp notifications on the lock screen, but they are grouped up. Meaning, can't expand to see contents
3. Face unlock recognizes your face. You can now able to slide to unlock
4. Still, the notifications can't be accessed or expanded to read full content

The same issue here. My wife's Honor 10 after customization completely lost lockscreen notifications and camera shortcut too. I spent long time trying to solve this in notification settings but failed- non app like default SMS, WhatsApp or Messenger displays notification on lockscreen. Do you have any advice please?

Hello. Notifications currently aren't working with custom lockscreen themes. Devs from honor said it was for higher security. I hate to say that the only way to see notifications on lockscreen is to change lockscreen theme to default, just lockscreen is enough though, you can keep other things like icons etc in whatever theme you want. I personally hate the clock being at the bottom of screen but there is no other way for notifications to show up properly atm. I also tried custom lockscreen 'launchers' but they're bugged. Hope this helps.
Tested working on Huawei View10, You can enable full message content on lock screen by going to phone settings > security & Privacy > Face Unlock > and disable "smart lock screen notification". These seem to be a bad description on Huawei part because you would think this turns off notifications on lock screen but it only limits the content on lock screen for security purposes. The only time i need to expand my messages on lock screen is when phone is sitting on desk and i don't want to lift the phone to unlock it in order to read my notification. Lock screen notification can be set for apps separately. Hope this helps.

"mark as read" or "dismiss" notification from the lockscreen?

Hey there,
I am not sure if i am doing something wrong here... but coming from OnePlus phone, I used to be able to either dismiss or mark-as-read messages for example right from the lockscreen, however, in Reno, when i pull down on the notification to reveal those 2 options, i am then taken to the bar notification screen where all the toggles are above, and only from there I can dismiss or mark-as-read.
Is this the case with ColorOS? or there is some settings need to be changed?
