Don't display text message preview - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello All,
I have an Galaxy S3 purchased on Brazil as "stand alone" (not customized by any specific mobile operator).
So, here is the problem: When I receive a text message the phone used to turn on the screen, display the text message icon and also the message preview (the message text content) in the notification bar but now this message preview is not working.
The detailed situation is:
If the screen is unlocked and a message is received the icon and the message preview is displayed.
If the screen is locked and a message is received it just turn on the screen (if is off), show the message icon but not does not show the message preview.
I already have tried to:
1 - Open the Message app / Settings / Nottification Settings = Disable (because it was already enabled) and enable (again) the notifications.
2 - Disable and Enable again (it was already enabled as well) the notifications option using the quicky options in the top of the screen (swiping from up to bottom)
3 - Tried to check the Sound, Display, Led, PowerSaving, Developer configurations, etc, etc one by one (from More settings at the top to About device at the bottom)
Do you guys know where i can find the option to display again this message preview? I was searching on this fórum and others in the internet but I was not able to find a solution and according to F*** Samsung the "suggestion" is to use the "reset factory"...
PS: I'm not using any other application to handle text messages or diplay notifications. The only app that I have similar is Whatsapp.
Thanks!!!
Eduardo

Just to be crystal clear you've selected notifications and the bottom box Preview Message?

Hi ghostofcain,
Thanks for the reply. Yes, the thing is that the option was already enabled. So I tried to disable, restart the phone and enable again but the issue was not solved. Right now the option is enabled.
Any other suggestion
Thanks again,
Edu

popup sms notification?

total winmo noob here...can someone recommend a solid SMS/MMS notification application for the HD2? i love the notification system on my Nexus One (screen wakes up, flashing LED, name, photo, message preview). is there anything like that for the HD2? i tried searching the web but found pages of info one sent message notifications and firmware updates directly from HTC.
Hi
Have you tried SMSchat?
http://iwindowsmobile.com/threaded-sms-messaging.html
I think this have a popup notification
Hans
i havent tried that. i just browsed through the site and downloaded the users manual and i dont see any mention of popup notifications. hmmm..
Hi,
You can set notifications to show a message on the home screen when you get an sms or mms - it has who sent it and the message body. Is that what you're after?
It is in settings -> messaging -> notifications.
A CAB or BSB tweaks can turn the led on for new sms & mms's.

Steve

Go to the settings tab, menu, all settings, sounds & notifications and change to the notifications tab. Change the event to "Message: New message" and tick "Display message on screen".
It displays the sender and message onscreen when it's received.
ahhh thank you! i totally missed the "all settings" tab! i never even saw it. thanks for the help!
this is because hd2 got 2 settings - i sense and i windows...thats why its so complicated and you literally got to dig around windows directory to find what you wanted

Hi there John. How can I have the same pop up notification for messages sent from my HD2? At the moment I am using the (very usefull) "Request delivery report" from the HD2 Settings, but it is a pain having to delete the generated message every time - otherwise my MyPhone would have double the number of SMS. Thanks for any ideas.
Hi Guys ,
I tried the method suggested which is Change the event to "Message: New message" and tick "Display message on screen".
However , when I change event to "Message : New Message" , the "Display message on screen" option is greyed out and NOT an option for me to tick/check.
Anybody know why ? I have installed Cookie Home Tab V1.7.1 on my phone. Could this be the problem ? Appreciate your advice.
greyed new message notifications!

would u please advice if u managed to sort this out? I am facing the same issue on my touchpro2, both notification options ("Display Message on screen" and "flash light for..") are greyed!!
not sure when it actually stared, as i installed WWE latest official ROM, then CHT 1.8.5 and CHT editor as well, and after that discovered that these options are not active any more!! looked in all the related forums but with no luck!
many thaaanks
S2U2
Try S2U2
It shows preview og mail and sms - and other things ;-)
many thanks jkolner for the tip
will give it a try now.. thou honetsly was hoping i can have it as it used to be, was very fine with that.. and i hope i can also restore the flashing LED option as i started missing many SMSs without it!!
for anyone who is facing a similar problem (i.e. inactive "display message on screen" or "flash light for.."), BsB Tweaks restored them - in addition to many other very useful options of course

Hum…I'm not sure this was the answer he search.
This only disable the waking screen when recieving a SMS. But he want a popup one [like popup notification on WinMo 6.1] which isn't a real SMS to delete after being notificated.

Disable Messaging Notification on lock screen?

Due to our security policy at work we aren't allowed to have message or e-mail previews enabled on any phone. Honestly I don't like them anyway as someone could see your private information without even needing to unlock the phone. Given this, I have always had mine messaging preview option disabled. I would get a message and the blue light would blink and that was the only indication. Since taking 4.4.2 yesterday I get a notification on my lock screen that doesn't divulge any information other that "MESSAGING" as far as the content or who it's from, but I would like to completely remove this all together. I have searched online high and low and I do not have the "preview message" option enabled at all. Given this, has anyone successfully got that lock screen notification to go away? I read another post and someone said it is defaulted to appear in KitKat, can someone confirm?
You would have to disable it from the all applications menu in settings

Wrong. That disables all notifications for the messaging app. I just want the lock screen preview disabled.

How To Turn Off Gmail Notifications With Notification Extender?

How do I turn off Gmail notifications on the watch with GNE?
I just want them to show up with the stock Gear Notifications.
Someone? Please?

In Notifications for Gear S (maybe it's not GNE, don't know), you can select what apps to have their notifications sent through Notifications.
For that :
1. start Notifications (on the phone)
2. press the "wrench" icon in the upper right corner to enter settings
3. Uncheck "Read Gmail Notifications"
If it's still showing notifications, you can use 2 other methods :
A. filter by notifications text
- in the settings use the "Do not read notifications containing ..." and add whatever text you know will always show up
B. selective notificationns
- in the settings activate the "Do you want to be asked for new...", this will make the app ask you for each new notification type. When the dialog shows up (when you get a notification from a new program) you can choose to send the notification or to ignore it
In case GNE and Notifications are not the same app, you should look into GNE's settings and see if it has similar ways to choose what notifications it sends.
But, then I won't see Gmail notifications at all, instead of only seeing them once, versus twice, which happens now with GNE.

If you only disable GNE to send the notifications and leave the standard Gear S notifications active for Gmail then you should get just one notification (the standard one).
If you instead want to get the notification just from Notifications Extended, well, i for one didn't manage to do that.
When i disable notifications for Gmail from the standard Gear S notifications then the Notifications Extended doesn't send the notifications either. I might have something configured incorrectly though, haven't played too much with the settings.

Not all notifications are compatible. Future updates should address this or Root.
In whatsapp notifications setting enable pop up when screen is off option..

Missing Notifications? (No Sound, No LED, etc.?) Possible Fix.

Does the LED notification light not work? Mine only ever shows when the phone is plugged in. I can't get it to flash when I have notifications, even though all settings in Android settings seem to be turned on

The problem is due to all the PER-app notification permissions. (I was missing notifications all the time. )
The next time you miss a notification: (Instructions are for MIUI12 but should be similar for MIUI1. I think the upgrade may have also reset some of the notification settings):
Swipe down on the status bar from the top left.
Long-press on the notification that you missed.
Click MORE SETTINGS. (The app in question will display.)
Ensure "Show Notifications" is enabled.
Allow Sound, Vibration, LED.
Below Notification Categories, press on one of the notification sub-categories:
Ensure "Show Notifications" is enabled for the sub-category. Change "Importance" to Default or High. (If it is "LOW", the other options are disabled.)
Change the notificaiton SOUND, Vibration, LED as desired.
If the missing notification isn't appearing in the status bar or if you want to fix the problem with other apps, you will have go to SETTINGS | NOTIFICATIONS and find the app yourself.
tried all the above...still does not work
Today: Poco X3 PRO + MIUI 12.5.1 and still the same problem. How could it be broken for so long? Maybe no one cares
