How do u stop ur texts from popping on the front screen on the htc evo

so after scouring MANY pages on this forum in this section i cannot find the answer..could someone please direct me to a thread where i can figure out How do u stop ur texts from popping on the front screen on the htc evo thanx =)
Do you mean pop up notification? Or any notification? Cause the apps like handcent have an option to disable pop up.

If you're using handcent, go, ect, if you go into the settings, and disable popup notification. And then there will be another setting to not show it in the notification bar.
Bam! He's at it again. Clearing up my answer lol

I swear roxxor camps Q+A! lol
Handcent will do that. You can fix that with what rox said
If you are using the native default app, I am assuming you mean in the notification bar, you can change that in settings.
You can turn off notifications in stock SMS. You can use Handcent, as others have suggested. GO SMS is a lovely SMS application, too, that I currently love and use and it has the option of a "privacy mode" so that it only reads "New Message" instead of message text.
thank you all =)

Lol, I do come here often, but I also hit up the development board, themes/app, and sometimes general; I sometimes do stick around here a lil' more because I like helping the other users.
You can change the xml file in HTCLockscreen.apk to hide sms messgaes from showing. That is what I always do when I build my rom.
I have all the EVO threads favorited but my real favorites are q&a+general.

no, that's working fine here.
For me, the vibrations are dead.
I set the "Vibrate" option to always and activated the haptic feedback, but nevertheless, it's not working anymore...

If you have flashed DoomKernel then it won't Vibrate it a reported issue with that kernel.
How about small contact pictures when sync with google? It was the worst thing in previous fw, i hate it! When i set picture to contact, after sync with google that pix became small Maybe this terrible bug fixed in new fw?
To see big pix when contact calling me is very important for me...

No, it can't be because there is a setting for Mobile Bravia engine in that screenshot.
I, too, want to know how to get Automatic Brightness.

The good news is you can deactivate Facebook inside Xperia after this update (in Settings - Sony Ericsson).
another firmware comes out soon, because it is full of bugs!

[Q]Can I make my screen turn on when I receive messages?

Greetings,
I was wondering if there's any way to make my screen turn on when I receive messages like when I'm getting a call. I usually have my phone on vibrate and if I won't see the led I just forget to check it.

There's an app on the market called SMS Popup that does what you want.

SMS & screen on

Can someone tell me if there is a way to stop the screen from turning on when I get an SMS as well as stopping the SMS from appearing on the lock screen? It's very annoying and I'm sure over time it cuts into battery life.
Thanks.
Msg. Setting.

Settings in message app and uncheck preview message.
Theres no way to prevent the screen from waking i dont think...custom roms only.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for the replies. I'll have to wait for a ROM then.
Thanks again.
Problem is with preview unchecked you still get a box on your lock screen minus the text info. I believe it just says "message".

chomp
use chomp sms. its quite fast, more customizable than the stock messaging app and actually has an option from preventing the screen wake. i cant say for the other sms applications though, but chomp is good
I have been using Go SMS for years. I really like the customization and settings. You can turn off stock notifications and eliminate the screen wake issue.

[solved] Screen off during a call

Hello, I have a problem, my screen doesn't light on when I have a call, I have to push the home button if I want take or rejet the call.
Thanks a lot for your help
In fact when my screen is already and I recevie a call, I just have a little windows call and not the full screen. I have to click on a right button to make it bigger. Maybe the problem come from this option ?

Hello, I think I've found what's the problem : it's because of the "incoming PopUp Call notification"
There is a cool feature on Galaxy Note 3, which lets you change the incoming call notification from a full screen notification to a pop up notification. To change the call notification, do as follows:
1. Open Settings and go to Device tab
2. Scroll down and tap Call.
3. Mark "Incoming Call Notifications", so notification pop-ups for incoming voice calls when the screen is on
Glad you figured it out
I can't find it on jt neo though.. are you on jellybean?

Thank you for hilighting

The steps wrote above are where the option is located. I haven't updated to KK and will never, when it is out for n7505. But I don't see a point of removing this feature. It is a great feature.
Samsung has removed it though.. :/
