I know this probably isn't the best place to post this but i need some help and I've looked around for a seemingly simple answer but can't find it I love the pop up notifications from go sms/handcent all that but i can't stand the vibrate patterns. I've been messing around with the custom vibrate patterns but can't seem to find the perfect numbers for the vibrate in the stock messaging app. anyone use gosms and find the perfect numbers?

The phone wants to vibrate every time someone answers your call and when moving widgets.
It's annoying and I can't seem to find anything in the settings, does anyone have a clue on how to change it so that it doesn't vibrate during these two events?
So I've searched the forum for any similar threads, and I've failed to come across the answer.
I've been wondering if it is possible to change what specific apps proc a specific notification icon on the lock screen.
For instance, the stock Messaging app, when you get a text, will place a puzzle piece on your screen, prompting you to fit the puzzle in the piece to go to it. However, if you use an alternative, like say, ChompSMS or Handcent, you don't get the notifications without having to keep the Stock app's notifications on.
There is also a puzzle piece for missed calls, etc.
I'm not sure if there is on for the stock email app, but there is not one for the Gmail one.
Anyhow, the bottom point is: Is there a way to change the current settings to something like making ChompSMS the normal SMS notification, add one for Gmail, etc?
If this is an obvious answer, please simply provide a simple answer and refrain from snide remarks, I'd appreciate it. Thank you. Cheers!
-me.
...?
Bump...? No one can comment or has an answer to this? :/
Sorry if I'm just being a nuisance.
I wish I had an answer for this as well...i would love for google voice to prompt a notification on the lock screen, but I too have not been able to find any answers to this.

Morning all
Is there a way to get notification previews on the lock screen on the Z2? (Pop up box in center screen a la ios)
Have had a quick search on here and couldn't find any info, also been through a load of settings etc but havent stumbled across it.
I assumed it would be an option, without having to download another app.
Any help appreciated!

You'll have to wait for Android L or use an app like Knock².

Edit: Turns out the feature you want is not yet released in Knock, and will only be available in a later version. Sorry bout that.

This is a response on another forum I did but it suits this situation so it's just a copy and past. Wasn't sure if you meant a response to sms or just notifications but both are covered.
You have 2 options really. I just am using them both as had enough of the standard text app telling me I had a message after I read it in the notification bar (there is a easier way but I liked all programs so kept using them). There are other apps but I use Chomp SMS to replace the standard messaging app. This will give you the option of reply bubble without going into the messaging app like Iphone.

Other options are Textra, GoSMS, Handcent...
But I have taken it on set further and use Nils which without the quick reply of Chomp SMS to give me the listed messages on the lockscreen as a widget. You can then just go straight to the message app from the lockscreen to answer if you hold and swipe.

This will become redundant once we get 4.4.4 where it become standard in android.
If you just looking after preview you could go one or the other without getting both. I liked ChompSMS so matched it with nils. Also can use Icon Changer if you dont like the Icon for Chomp SMS which I will probably do.
All programs are free and available from the Play store. And you keep the original lock screen as I like the unlock method as well.
Thank you for your reply.
I'll check these out for sure.
Its funny, having been ios for 5 years, there are little things I miss.
What I don't miss is the godawful piece of trash known as 'iTunes'!!
(My main reason for ditching my iPhone, the other being I love my Nexus 7 and my little Nook HD)
Also just read up on Android L, lets hope the update rolls out to us Z2 users swiftly!
Thanks Again

You can enable the Android L feature already if you are rooted.
I have it and it's brilliant. Root the phone, install Xposed, install Heads Up Notifications, and voila.
I also have Light Flow installed (this doesn't require root). This basically turns on your phone's screen when you receive a notification (you can customise it to decide which notifications you want). It used to really annoy me how the Z2 didn't turn on when a notification was received.
Now, thanks to xposed, Heads Up Notifications and Light Flow (lite), I have the perfect setup.
Have a question hope you can help. I was getting weird text from a random number the other day so I blocked it. But in doing so I block all my messages notification so it does not tell me when I have a message. I've been trying to undo it but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions? Thank you
I would just like to know of there is a way to have the screen stay off when I get a notification , I've mainly seen this happen for text messages. I'm not a big fan of having the screen wake every time there's notification. I've Googled and checked through these forums and was unable to find anything about that.
Looking through the settings I don't see anything that sticks out to me that allows you to change that.
If anyone could help that would be great thanks

I'll go to Settings>lock screen>no hide all notifications. If this what you want.

No not like that, I noticed that only the stock LG messenger app wakes the screen when you get a text, other messengers have settings to change that
