Hey Everyone, I have 2 quick questions regarding the Samsung Messages app. I am on 11.0 OneUI 3.0. When I receive a text my phone screen turns on for a second and I cannot figure out for the life of me how to stop it from doing that. Does anyone know how to stop that? Also, when I receive a text and I pull down my notifications panel it just says new message but doesn't show me who or a preview of the contents of the text message. I would like to have it not show that info on the lockscreen but when the phone is already unlocked I would like to see who the message is from and a preview of the text also, on top of that, when I get a text and I try to check it on my Fit2 it just says new message also. Does anyone know what setting I can change to fix that as well? I cannot seem to change the correct setting for either of these 2 issues. Thanks in advance!
Hi mate,
In order to screen not being woken up on receiving a text message you need to set up edge light notification instead - it will just show tiny colour animation instead. It is this or wake the screen. Alternatively, you can use different app for messages - Google Messages, Textra, etc. and set it up as you wish.
With relation to showing message content, you need to change it in Messages setting called Message Preview - it is turned off by default.
I hope this helps.

The setting should be under
Flash Notifications > Screen Flash Notifications
Do a search as soon as you open settings for Flash Notifications and you should see the toggle just below.

Basically I'm looking for an app that works the way MIUI handles receiving a new message. For those who don't know it goes as follows:
Instead of just displaying an icon notification MIUI actually visually shows you the entire message with the text box underneath, tapping the text box makes my keyboard come up allowing me to respond immediately all while still seeing what was happening prior to the text coming in the background. Once i hit send the message goes away and i'm back to whatever i was doing. (even though i never left and could see it the whole time)
Whats so great about this?
I don't have to pull down the notification tab, select the message, wait for it to open, respond, then hit back until hopefully back to where i left off.
Its all done over top of what i was doing seamlessly.
Is there an app like this for when i may want to try something other then MIUI? If not, someone needs to really make this.
EDIT :
great suggestions given and listed below.

had it for a bit, it would display a pop up notification, but when i hit reply it would take me to go sms messaging app and out of what i was doing. Once i was done with sending the message i'd still have to exit out of the convo thread and the messaging app itself to get back to where i was.
Not quite what i'm looking for.

I use this the way you described in the OP. I answer directly in the popup, and hitting "Send" just sends the message, and closes the popup. Unless I've received multiple messages in which case I can answer them all one by one. I can also scroll this popup to read the individual messages. I urge you to try again.
thanks for all the suggestions guys!
although i would like to continue using the standard messaging app and not move to a new one.
Regardless i will update the first post with links to your suggestions
Hi there,
I have a problem with my notification vibrations. When I receive a call the phone vibrates as expected, but when I receive a text message or an e-mail there is no vibration, though configured...
I have the out-of-the Box Android 4.0.1 (the OTA update did not arrive yet :-/ ). The acoustic notifications are set to silent mode. In text messages settings as well as e-Mail settings the vibrate setting is always.
Has anybody a hint what I could try to get vibrations working for Text messages and e-mails?
regards

Click on your SMS icon then go into settings there and go all the way to the bottom and make sure it's set to always vibrate

Don't know if it would matter but after setting it to always have you rebooted your phone

Try downloading an app that lets you assign custom vibrate pattens to notifications and see if it works then

I'm having the same problem with my CDMA on a deodexed but otherwise stock 4.0.2.
It seems to be an issue (for me at least) with the Google Apps. GTalk, GMail and Google Voice Texts aren't setting the vibration when anything new arrives.
Sorry, I have nothing positive to add other than: "Me Too!"
Viel Glück
If you have lightflow installed, it can override the notification settings, make sure(if you have it) that vibration is enabled for sms
if you don't, well I see no reason not to have it its just great!
I haven't installed lightflow. I tryed installing custom vibes und set a custom vibration for an sms contact. unfortunately it still does not work :-/
Does anybody know how to contact samsung/google support? On the Samsung side I cannot choose the GI-I9250 as model and on the google side all contact links are linking to all but a mail adress or contact form
problem kind of fixed
Hello everybody,
just for the files. My final solution was a hard reset of the device. right now the vibrations are working...
Actually I was not able to figure out whick App was causing the problems...
I like to have delivery reports turned on for SMS messages, but when I enabled Delivery Reports I am getting a notification in the Status Bar area and a notification alert, like a new message has come in.
Does anyone know how, to disable the Notification of Delivery Reports? I want the reports, but not the "new message" like notification.
really no one has an answer for this?

Even i asked this sometime back apparently the reports will get delivered in notification only in the stock app.
I dont think there is another way around this. Just use some 3rd party app from the market..
Hi
When I had my One X new somehow I seemed to managed to set two different notifications for SMS and the delivered notification. The delivered notification was a quieter alert and I knew to ignore it as it was just a delivery report.
After wanting a clean start as I'd been messing around downloading apps etc where the phone was new, I did a factory reset.
Now I can't see how I managed to get two different types of alert, and now can only seem to get the same alert regardless if the SMS is a delivery report or a normal SMS received, which is annoying.

Phil
Go into the app settings and choose your tones. You can't set different volumes, though

but is there a way to differentiate between incoming sms and delivery report?
All I have is an option named "Notification Sound" and it seems to be a general option.
In the message app go to menu then notifications. Has the option of playing a tone or not. Can get the notification in the notification bar or not and you can chose a separate tone, no tone, vibrate, no vibrate.
This is on stock rom.

Hi
Think I found out how I managed different notifications, seems to be a bit of a hack that allows different notifications for the delivery receipt and normal SMS.
1) In the HTC SMS application, Click Settings then Notifications, then make sure Received notification is selected and enable Notification sound, set the sound you want to hear when receiving a delivery receipt. I guess you could upload a silent sound file to use in order to hear nothing, but I haven't tried this. Under sent notifications uncheck notifications.
2) This is the hack, probably a bug that might get fixed. Go into Settings then Personalise, click the Sounds tab, and change the Notification sounds to the sound you want to hear when receiving an SMS.
What seems to happen now is receiving an SMS gets the Notification sound set in 2 under personalise, but a receipt report still gets the original sound set in 1. If you go back into the SMS settings the sound file name has been changed to that set in 2 but hasn't been applied to delivery receipts. If you change the sound file to something else it will be reset across receipts and new SMS, so you will need to go back into personalise to get the SMS to something different again.
I now have a much quieter sound for delivery receipts, and a louder sound I can recognise as new SMS messages.
Hope that helps.
Regards
Phil
Hey guys,
I have a question about how to do the following:
Let's say I have WhatsApp installed. When I receive a message notification in WhatsApp, in the notification panel I want it to show as a custom notification from some other app instead of WhatsApp notification. This way I'll know that I received a notification, but if I temporarily handed over my phone to a friend he won't know that it was a WhatsApp notification. I don't care of the notification is clickable or not.
So the task is two fold.
1. Block/clear the notification of the original application.
2. Put a fake notification in the notification panel when 1 happens.
I have tried installing Tasker and AutoNotification, but I can't figure it out. Any help is appreciated!!
Thank you so much in advance.
There should be an option to block notifications within the AutoNotification app (no need to create a Tasker profile for it).
As for a "fake" notification, you can use the option "Notify" in Tasker.

If I block the notification using autonotification, tasker's notify task doesnt get triggered and no fake notification shows up, if there is a way to intercept the notification from tasker's then I can fire up two events, one for blocking notification and another for showing a fake notification. Is that possible via tasker?

Not too sure about your method, but maybe try adding a wait?
So, once your real notification shows up, put a wait of maybe 1-2 seconds to allow enough time for AutoNotification to see it. Once it sees and the wait time ends, the task would continue as normal.
This is all in theory as I'm not testing it myself, but I hope it helps nonetheless!
I don't want to add a delay, because it'll show the notification for the delay, right?
But I did figure it out, on how to achieve it.
1. In Tasker, setup the autonotification intercept event to show the fake notification.
2. Block all the notifications from the autonotification app settings.
Below are the two images to show my setup. Now all I need to do is to hide the app from launcher and I'm all set. That'll make it completely stealth!

Yeah it would show the notification for those 1-2 seconds, glad you got your method working though!
This may not be note 10 specific but I know this didn't occur on my Note 9. I've noticed since last night when I started texted with my note 10 that any text I send with "today" "tonight" "Tomorrow" Upon sending the text message the word becomes a link to create a new calendar item. Thus far I've been unable to find a way to turn this off. Has anyone else noticed this? If so has anyone found a way to stop this behavior?

No change unfortunately. Had tried that already and just tried it a second time after your suggestion.
Anyone ever find a solution to this? It's super annoying. Happens with both the Samsung messaging app and the Google messaging app on my S10e.

Thanks.... but was asking about SMS text messages, the subject of this thread.
For me it's under calendar itself.
Go into calendar settings or app settings for calendar and clear it's data and restart the calendar setup.

Yes, i know what's your subject of thread.
However, above info etc,
was my fix to my "problem",
when i had similar issues .
I found that it was my G calendar was recording Sms.... , email etc, everything, that had references to dates, days etc.!
and as my Samsung and Google calendars are linked,
it appeared in both calendars, as events etc.....!
Bottom line,
If my fix /info, does not apply to you or fix issues.... just ignore !
Good luck
I see. Thanks. I can't find any setting in my calendars that is linking to gmail or SMS. And it happens only on the stock Samsung and Google messages apps, not 3rd party SMS apps like Textra or Handcent. So I assume it's something related to the SMS apps...
