Hello,
I'm using Android 5.1.1 (unofficial CyanogenMod 12.1) on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
When I receive a text message, I get a notification (ringtone + vibration + icon in notification bar + LED flashing…) except for ONE contact, for which I don't get ANY notification. I need to manually open the SMS app to see their messages.
If I get another SMS from another contact before checking, the notification area will display both messages though.
I actually behaves as if I had filtered out notification for that contact only, but :
1- I don't remember how I could do that
2- I checked every notification option I could think of, to no avail…
As a last resort, I'm asking you guys here… How can I reactivate notifications for that contact ?
I found the solution, so I'll answer to myself : resetting the SMS app to default parameters solved the problem, as it seemed to be circumvented to that app (I did not lose my messages).
I still don't know how I ended up in that situation though…

I have seen this issue on other phone forums via search, but I seem to be the only one with this happening on a Vibrant. Every time I get message the yellow icon comes up on the notification bar but then the old school white message icon comes up too and the drop down just says I have unread messages.
I tried turning off the notifications in the messaging options but that removes both the yellow envelope icon (I want that) but not the unread messages (white postcard). Even after "read" the messages it stays there until I hit clear notifications then pops back up when I get a new reply.
Anybody have any ideas on how I can fix this? I am rooted running the stock ROM with the recent OTA update.
I also checked the SIM for any stored or saved messages and at one point deleted every text I had.
It sound slike you have another msging app installed - like HandCent or something.

I'm finding I'm missing loads of text messages & would love it if the phone would alert me repeatedly until I finally notice the sms and read it.
I have dug around the phones menus but with no luck. Not sure if I'm just missing it as I'm new to Android (loving It).
Is their a setting to enable this feature or will I just have to choose a longer/louder sms notification sound.
Thanks.
use handcent SMS, you can set how long the phone should vibrate, and I also recommend NoLED

Thanks, I'll take a look at those.
also SMS Popup, which I prefer to Handcent...
Thanks, gonna have a play around with both and see which i prefer.
SMS!Alert
You can try SMS!Alert.
Allow you to create custom alerts based on SMS messages, enter a incoming phone number and/or keyword filter, when someone sends a SMS with the keyword filter text or if incoming phone number matches, phone will display sound alert.
Hi,
I've had my SGS3 for a few weeks now and I've noticed one issue that keeps happening. When I receive a new SMS I either don't get a notification OR it show up late. If I open the messaging app, I'll often find that there are new messages in there but I won't have had a notification either on the top bar, on the homescreen icon/widget or on the lockscreen.
Is this common and are there any known fixes? I've compared my messaging settings to those of a colleague at work who also has an SGS3 and they're exactly the same.
For now I've switched the Handcent SMS which covers most of the problem but it means I still don't get a notification on the lockscreen when I receive a new message.
My handset is a UK model, software build number IMM76D.I9300XXBLG8
Thanks,

Hi,
Lately i discovered the Xposed mod and am very happy with the availability off mods for it.
I would like to ask if some off you mod creators could have a look at my problems with sms app and maybe create a mod for one of these ?
I've been with Android for some months now and really enjoy using it but when it comes to sending an sms, Android seems to think sms is just another app like facebook or skype but it's the only thing (besides calling) that works on every phone & on every platform and with every provider.
-> I would be very happy if someone could make a mod to get delivery reports inside call/sms logs so i can check when an sms was delivered.
Best example is Newyear, you send an sms to everyone in your phone but on android you'll never know if it got delivered because there is no delivery reports log (i think). And as soon as you touch that notification it's gone forever and you didn't even see when/if/who it got delivered.
-> I found an xposed mod wich puts the sms ringtone on the same volume slider as the calling ringtone, wich is a great change, finally no more other apps that need high volume because sms needs to sound loud BUT i love to have a separate volume slider for sms (dunno if this is possible in a mod?)
-> when my device is in use and i get an sms, nothing shows up on my screen, only in notifications. my notifications bar is set to auto hide so if sound is off i don't even notice i got an sms. So maybe a mod that show the popup from lockscreen also when the device is not locked ? (i know there are probably some apps for this, but i prefer something working directly from the firmware instead off installing tons off extra apps).
-> if i use a long sms tune, it keeps playing till i unlock the phone and open the sms, it would be nice if it stopped as soon as i touch the sms widget on the lockscreen, or even better stop when i touch/unlock the phone.
Dunno if any off this is possible ? if so many thanks in advance for trying !
