[Q] How to disable stock SMS app notifications? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have Go SMS Pro installed and disabled sound notifications in the stock Messaging app, however... When I get new messages and read them in Go SMS, I get a notification icon in the stock App (number of new unread messages) as well as in the social Hub, to which the stock messaging app belongs as well.
Any ideas how to disable it?

Use titanium back up and freeze the " badgetProvider". But it will give u forceclose notification everytime u get a message.

So another words, there is no menu option for doing this

Hi I also use Go SMS pro, and was hoping bypass the use of the stock messaging app.
Have you had any joy with this? Also is it possible to change the default homescreen icon for messages to open GO SMS Pro instead of the stock?
TIA

I use Go SMS Pro, too. But I don't have any problem having a notification coming from the stock messaging. What I did is I unchecked all the boxes from the menu of the stock. That's what I did from my old x10i, too. Works well for me.

As above, this sorted out the issue for me.
In the settings for the stock messing client uncheck the notifications box and that should get rid of it

Go to the App Drawer, press Menu button, tap Edit, you can then drag and drop GO SMS icon over the stock one.

I like GO SMS Pro i always used this with my HD2 but the stock SMS on the GS2 is a massive improvment on previous android efforts and i think ill keep this.

Just uncheck the notification setting in the stock sms menu?

[Q] Problem with SMS unread info on lockscreen

Hello.
I have problem with unread sms notification (not in "top status bar") bellow big clock on lock screen. I use GO SMS app, but it occur in Chomp SMS, SMS Popup and not in Handcent. When I receive SMS it normal show notification text, I open sms, notification in top status bar dissapear, sms it's read, but when I lock screen there is still info shows one unread sms. It only dissapear when I open stock SMS app. In stock app sms of course is read.
I have turn off notifications in stock SMS app.
How to fix that?
Android 2.2 rooted, but on 2.2.1 problem still happen.
Same here, this is the reason that i have returned to Handcent...A bit resource hog but it integrates in system much better than any other sms app out there.
Same problem here, its really annoying.
I wonder if removing the stock sms app would help, but i'm affraid it would still be the same, but then without any way to get rid of the unread message on the lock screen.

I never send any MMS, so that would not be a problem.
But would removing the stock sms application cause other problems, like being unable to send/receive sms's, or perhaps something totally unexpected?
I have removed stock sms app about two months ago, and I don't have any problems - mms work correctly. But You must enable option in important tips in go sms - "Stock app removed".
Install both handcent and go sms... only keep the notifications of go sms.. thts it u dont get any sms notifications on your lockscreen.!!

Handcent Notifications

I'm having trouble with Handcent and notifications - namely double notifications with the stock Messaging app (even when everything is checked off in the ATT app) and then the Handcent app can't wake the phone, just makes the alert sound, of which there's two separate notice sounds.
ALSO, no red dot notification on the HC widget using Go Launcher EX with Go Notification installed. Any ideas?
just go into the stock messaging app and turn off notifications...... i had to do it, and had to do it with gosms.
yes.. go into default messaging text app click menu,,scroll to bottom and disable notifications......then in handcent click menu>Applications setting> Default Messaging application >Allow All Sms & Mms ,for default..

[Q] Disabling stock "Phone.apk" notifications

Hi friends. I don't like cm7 stock Phone app and i use another dialer app (Go dialer). But my device gets 2 notifications, both stock phone.apk and go dialer.
Can i disable stock phone app notification. And how can i do?
i guess there might be an option in Go dialler to disable other notifications...
am telling this because I have same kind of option in Go sms pro, where I can disable all the other notifications except go sms pro's notification..
Im pretty sure you're able to chose to disable the notifications with GO's dialer, i've used it once and I didnt have problem with double notifications.

Thanks for your advices. But there is no section for this in Go dialer or exDialer settings.
Is there another way that using Go dialer or exDialer without double notifications
Use Titanium Backup and convert it into system app. Double notifications will not come.

Lock screen and sms count

Hi,
with stock SGS 3 messaging app when I receive sms, on my lockscreen there is an envelope on which I can "click" and unlock directly to messaging app. I find go sms pro better than stock messaging app but with this app I'm missing the envelope on lock screen after receiving sms. Does anybody know how to make envelope on lock screen work with go sms pro?
Impossible
Typed on my Galaxy S 3 ♡
Seconded. The lockscreen notifications will only work with the stock messaging application. You may be able to cobble something together using WidgetLocker though - it allows similar functionality, but I don't know if they've managed to get it working with GMail yet.
You could disable GoSms' function to suppres the stock SMS notification, but a) you'd get TWO SMS notifications then, and b) clicking that envelope would get you to the stock SMS app, still.
Personally, I am using LockMenu and have one of the unlocking sliders configured to launch GoSms.
That in combination with GoSms' "New SMS popup" works very well for me.
That's a pity. Anyway, thx guys for workarounds!

Any great SMS apps out there?

I've already tried a variety of SMS apps such as GoSMS, Handcent and ChompSMS. I'm looking for one now that can handle group chats, MMS, and emoji. GoSMS is too bloated with unneeded features, Handcent is kind of ugly and Chomp hasn't supported group chat for me very well. I'd stick with the stock messaging app, but I hate motoblur and after the OTA update to Jellybean, I seem to be stuck with that until a root exploit is developed.
Input appreciated!

I am searching for an app that opens the screen every time I recieve an message. I already tried "SMS popup" but the app is very buggy, I always get double messages and it interfere with viber. I dont want to press the power button everytime I get an notification or message, it is quite annoying
i use chomp sms with emoji add on, it's fine i guess. What i still want is an app that incorporates the emoji keyboard, has pop-up notificatiions when i receive a message, and handles group messages like the iphone(i know, im sorry for mentioning it) anything like that?

HandCent SMS
Handcent SMS
Go sms
Been using Go SMS for the last week or so. I like it. It gives a lot of flexibility and customization. As well as doing a pop up notification for new messages
I ended up finding a themed mms.apk and pushed it to /system/app and changed permissions to make it work with the ROM I am currently running. I prefer the Google Stock mms.apk to Verizon's Motoblur anyday. I just thought that Chomp was too simple and Handcent/GoSMS were too crowded with unnecessary features. Thanks for all the input!
I've actually tried some of the most common ones, like Go SMS, Pansi and so on - but the one I like the most is Chomp!
Only the paid version is ad-free - but it really is worth the money! Simple SMS app, with alot of customizing - and no slow-down extras (I'm looking at you, go-sms). And it does support full emoji, including the new ones with only one button.
Try it - I was amazed : )
(oh - and the pop-ups can be enabled in settings btw... )
I must be one of the few that hate pop-up messages
No - I actually really HATE those pop-ups myself - So I've deactivated them in Chomp!
Sliding messaging, give it a try: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...EsImNvbS5rbGlua2VyLmFuZHJvaWQubWVzc2FnaW5nIl0.

Yes and you can turn them off in settings.
I can recomend Handcent SMS.
Does anyone know if there is someway to modify the stock sms app so when everytime u get a message the phone unlocks and u can reply? I know there is sms popup and I have been using it for a very long time now but the app is very buggy. I get duplicate messages all the time so its very unstable. I like the stock sms app but everytime I receive a message I need to unlock the phone and drag down the notification bar. Any other suggestions?

I have been using Handcent for a few years now, my only consistent complaint has been that it runs like it is a huge program and has slowdowns.
