Go to settings, privacy, and un-check the box for show message text in the lockscreen section. Once you open privacy in settings it's pretty easy to figure out.

Hmm I don't know about BAMF I'm on Gingeritis VIII. I though that setting was always there tho even on stock. May have to ask in the BAMF thread or maybe someone else will come along. Sorry.

I have the same problem. How the hell do I disable text on lockscreen?
Might not be the perfect solution, but you could always try GO SMS Pro. That app has tons of different options for notifications. Hope it helps.

I have found another way around this if you don't mind using the AOSP lock screen.
The AOSP lockscreen will NOT display the contacts name or any part of the txt msg.
Use rootexplorer and go to the /system/apps folder and re-name the "htclockscreen.apk" to "htclockscreen.apk.old" then reboot your phone. If you ever wanna go back, just change the name back and reboot.

thanks for the tip, it works great!
BTW, did you have issue on data connection when you change the lockscreen. I have a feeling it's probably not, but just want to ask since I am losing data connection after I made the change. Probably its Verizon flacking ...

Hi,
I have somehow accidently deleted the Messaging Icon from the undertray where the 4 standard icons go, now the problem is the messaging icon is not in the applications so cannot drag it back there again!
Does someone know how I can get this back, if I search the phone the Messaging Icon is there and I can click it to go to messaging, but it just isn't in the applications so cannot drag it back when editing the undertray.
I am completely stock and not rooted (yet...)
Thanks in advance,
Go to applications, click on the menu button and select list view. This is an alphabetical sort, so messaging should be there under M.
how the devil did you do that! i thought the four icons in TW4 were locked in place? id love to be able to change them but keep the TW4 launcher
kinda mad since your not rooted, you have any idea how you did it?

Applications -> Menu -> Edit
Now you can drag and drop the icons around
@Sleepycat3 Thanks for the reply, I tried as you suggested but the Messaging App is not in the list (see attachment).
Anyone got anymore suggestions, it is really driving me mad!!
@Crucio_ As to how I did it, I have now worked that out...
Hit Applications, Press Menu, then Press Edit you can now drag all Apps around including the undertray. Be careful though if you remove the Messaging App you can't get it back - As I have found out
I would suggest trying to re install the message app, or push it with adb/root explorer. But if your not rooted i don't know enough about these things to give you proper advice.
Only thing i would say try is get the .apk for the message app and install it and see what happens

I have a same problem. how do i fix it?
wiredly I am unable to change SMS Theme ..Any one know why?
EDIT: Came to know after update there was no SMS theme for any one.Why? and what theme you have now for SMS? Mine is Grey background and Yellow,Blue bubbles
There is NO sms themes anymore in 2.3.4 afaik. So you have to put back 2.3.3 I guess, lol.
Everyone has this, as all have been removed by Samsung. You could always install a different SMS app, but that's probably not what you're here for .

Can you tell me what app could I use to get rid of Threaded SMS. I want Normal SMS back, with Inbox/Outbox etc...Please suggest one which doesn't put any extra pressure on battery.
Sorry for Off Topic query ,but had to ask.
Regards.
it is sad they removed it.Any one know the reason why they did it?

I know that Go SMS has an Inbox-Outbox feature. You use the settings menu to make that your standard view. Or when you have installed the app and you see the different contact-threads, slide your thumb sideways, you'll see the old Inbox/Outbox.
------
As to be on-topc, I have seriously no idea why Samsung removed the themes. Maybe they're up to something, but I seriously doubt that. We may see them back in the future but I seriously doubt that.
I seem to have an issue whereby when I adjust the alignment of a 3D image to make it crisper and then click Save, the image looks fine. Then when I navigate to another image or exit the gallery the image alignment reverts back to the original and the changes aren't saved.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Some people seem to have the same issue: http://forum.pocketables.net/showthread.php?t=10163
Bump?
I've tried restarting the phone and removing the battery but the problem still persists...
Hmmm, I've noticed some changes seem to be saved but after connecting the phone to my Mac changes are lost! The file modified date does not change from the created date either...
I've found an app called 3DSteroid which can make alignment changes but surely I shouldn't really have to buy an app to do what the phone should already do!
So nobody else has this problem on here?
What are you using to adjust use alignments?
The standard Gallery app like so:
http://www.htc.com/uk/howto.aspx?id=83886&type=1&p_id=398
Wow! I didn't even know about that! That's cool. Now I can save my 3D pictures into 2D. Woohoo!
As for your question, mine remembers the settings. You think your gallery apk is corrupted? If so, I could upload mine and see if that helps.
Hehe it's a good feature to have (while it works on mine!).
Out of interest on yours does it remember the settings after you plug/unplug the phone from a computer and does it actually modify the files or does the gallery app store the alignment settings?
Thanks but I'm not rooted and I'm guessing I can't replace the app without having root access? It's something I'm looking at doing but I've only just got the phone so I'm a bit nervy about it!
From the looks of it, the gallery just remembers the new alignment. I don't think you need to be rooted to reinstall an apk file.
PM your email address to me. I'll send it to ya.
Ah thanks, I've just PM'ed you with my email. Do I just install from ASTRO like any other apk file?
Thanks!
The version you sent me was slightly newer. I clicked Upgrade but it comes up with an error 'Application not installed'.
File Version = 4.02117323218.115252
Installed Version = 4.0.2116342830.92213
Maybe I do need root access?
Well that sucks.
It's very odd... on some pics the settings seem to save (but then can revert back again at some point) and on other pics the settings don't save at all!
Oh well, thanks for your help anyway.
No prob. Hurry up and get rooted!
You guys do realize the adjustment is on a per-image basis, right? The setting isn't supposed to "stick" as a global setting because you are not adjusting the display: you are adjusting the parallax of an individual photo.
Mike
Yes we do. He's talking about how he tries to save the change, but for that file, it doesn't save the change.
And it's really weird how they revert back after a while, which leads me to believe that option has a cache limitation in the gallery, or either that his gallery is messed up.

Hi, yes I realise it is on a per-image basis. The issue I'm having is that changes do not 'stick' to the images.
I guess a hard reset could help but I'm reluctant to do that as it'll mean re-applying all my settings etc.

Hi all,
is it possible to display new whatsapp messages directly on lockscreen? (like on ios? Display lights up if new message comes in and i can read message directly on lockscreen, thats what I want.
Bought some apps but nothing works fine :-(
Sorry for my poor Englisch...
For directly showing message on lock screen it depends on the ROM I think.
Is there any rom for my desire hd available?
I am using virtous quattro with ics at the moment.
You need to post this there.. I don't have desire. So, can't say.
I think widget locker is what you need. I use handcent for sms, and it gets through the lockscreen just like you describe.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
The lockscreen code is either part of the framework.jar or the systemui... and if the device is not rooted, you cannot change it.
If you are a programmer, what you could try is to create a new window (for example with the WindowManagerImpl hidden class) trying different window types: window types define the layer where the window will be placed. For some window types you might need some special permission (for example I think TYPE_SYSTEM_OVERLAY will be placed above lockscreen, and it needs the SYSTEM_DIALOG permission)
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Currently there isn't an (lockscreen-)app that allows that. If you are a programmer you can always try to make it yourself, like mentioned above. But be warned, it's going to be a hell to create it
I´m not a Android programme
There is an option in the settings of whatsapp "turn on the pop up messages" check that box n u are good to go
i know this option, but it´s still behind the lockscreen...
Hey guys!!
This pop-up message, allows you to answer the message even with the lock screen. I think it's a lack of security because anyone can answer it if you forget your phone somewhere.
I've already try to talk with the developers of Whatsapp, but with no success.
On iphone you can only read and unlock to answer.
That's right, the popup feature when set to 'always' or 'only when screen off' shows messages and I think even allows replying from the lockscreen. You can't go view the full convo without unlocking though. This is the way it works at least in the latest beta from http://www.whatsapp.com/android/

I just changed over to task650-aokp-build-35 and in the process of setting everything up again. I can not find a feature to designate phone numbers for speed dialing. Can someone point me in the right direction? Other than that, the ICS build is awesome.
Thanks,
Jim
First, update to build 37.
Open up the phone and hit menu, settings, speeddial.
Thanks. I'm a noob so one question. Can I just do an update or do I have to wipe and flash again?

There is no selection for SpeedDial in the list. Any ideas?
Im not on latest either, and do not have the option. and have no clue, other than what red said, if its even in the ROM.
but if you didnt do a full wipe, then some features might be missing.
The stock AOKP dialer does not support speed dial. You can however set favorites. If you need speed dial just download a different dialer from the market that supports it.

I went with xDialer from the market. It seems to have what I am looking for. Now, if I can only find a way to reassign the stock dialer button to run it I will be happy.

If the icon is all you want - download a Go Launcher EX ICS theme. And assuming you are using Nova launcher that comes with AOKP (if you are not you should, it is awesome). Press and hold the dialer icon of you new dialer app - and replace the icon of your new dialer with one from the ICS theme icon pack from Go Launcher.
It sound like a PITA but it really isn't. I did the same thing cause I do not like the GMail icon for I did the above steps and replaced it with the stock email icon.
I just found a way to do what I wanted. Part of ICS is guess.
1. Place shortcut to app on home screen
2. press and hold shortcut until it can be moved.
3. drag and drop on top of phone icon.
(this creates a toolbar with both apps)
4. tap toolbar to show both icons
5. press and hold stock dialer icon until it can be moved.
6. drag icon to delete area.
(this leaves only the dialer icon in place of the stock dialer icon)
Cool stuff. I am liking ICS better and better.

Does this have anything to do with your original question, the speed dial?
I've tried to visualize your 6 steps above and can't imagine how that accomplish what you want.
The original question of how to get speed dial is answered by replacing the stock dialer with one from the market. The last part is replacing the stock dialer shortcut with the shortcut to the replacement dialer.

there is a much easier way of replacing that.
remove one. replace with another. no need to make a folder with both apps, and then remove one. This has nothing to do with ICS, just the launcher. and that feature has been around for years.
Play around with android, its pretty cool.

Thumbs up.
This exactly what I had in mind, but I thought OP made 6-step speed-dial working. If just for placing the icon (new app) on the home scree, it could be done in 2 steps, one remove the stock, two, place the new one on the home screen.
