Lockscreen message alerts - Optimus One, P500, V General

For some reason, my phone no longer shows a message alert like "2 new messages" when I get new messages while the phone is locked. It still shows the little message icon at the top left though.
I'm running GB 2.3 on an LG Optimus One
any suggestions?

What do you mean? No matter how many messages you get its normal to show the icon
Do you have a custom sms app?
And what launcher do you have?

why you ask about the launcher? he/she is talking about the lockscreen, there is no Launcher
so my question is: what ginger you are using? stock rom or custom rom?
are you using a lockscreen widget to show unread sms/not answered calls?

Sorry I got confused, I thought the problem was in the notification bar. But now that I have read over the post a few times it makes sense
Sorry bro

ICS Cleanrom issue, wanted to post in correct forum but....

I wanted to post this where it belongs but my post count isnt up there, but anyway, I installed the latest and greatest from Scott, 4.2, I noticed when I center my clock it appears in both spots (centered and on the right) after unlocking my phone. Anyone else have this?
Thanks-Dan
Using the ICS lock screen?

Yeah, I was. After more playing around I switched to the HTC lockscreen (the one with my wallpaper) and now the centered clock seems to stay put, without the clock on the right showing up. Thanks for pointing me in that direction.
However, now I notice the clocks on my screen don't match. I'm using Scott's centered clock on top and I have the HTC small widget on my homescreen. Is there a way to sync them?
I've had the mis-synced clocks before from status bar and widget, normally time or a reboot fixes it. Not sure there's a way to manually sync them.

Probably the Developer page for that ROM. I tried to post a logcat but it wouldn't let me due to a low post count. Ended up emailing it to him. It's a weird rule. I mainly read and only feel the need to post when necessary.

Are you using a 2 finger gesture to expand? From what I hear this will be fixed in next version to only require a one finger gesture, but currently, Gmail or Email notifications and SMS etc, you need to use a 2 finger downward swipe to open them up

Whatapp does not take advantage of that feature yet!
I'm sure I read somewhere we could reply directly from the notification? Did I dream that?

You can do that on Cyanogen, there is a popup notification that allows you to reply direct from that. Wonder if thats what you are thinking?

Could be actually. You mean you pull down the notification bar and can press reply without opening the app? That'd be great.

I've been trying to get it to work with Gmail but it doesn't seem to happen. Just opens the Gmail when more than one email has been received and unread. When a single email is unread though it does show some of the message text.
Anyone had better luck?

Scratch that! It works... You have to drag down with two fingers from the notification to expand it. (like you drag down in Google maps to go into the 3d view)

How did I just figure this out! This feature is obviously not that well known! Oh my.
Thanks so much, this is immensely useful!

Lockscreen quick reply and text sound notification

Hey guys,
I have the at&t one x+ and was looking for a couple apps to make my life a little easier and to make the phone that more amazing. The first one is to be able to quick reply and quick text from the lock screen. The primary reason I want this feature is to enhance the battery life of the phone. Since I use juicedefender and I don't need to unlock the phone when I text (meaning I don't need to connect to WiFi) the battery life will be prolonged.
Another app/option I'm looking for is to be able to control the frequency of text sound notification. If I've been texting frequently I don't need to hear a sound notification every time. Example: maybe an option to receive sound notification if I havnt received/sent a text since 5 minutes from the last text, otherwise a LED notification will suffice. And it I'm currently using the phone a preview of the message on the status bar is all I need, no sound necessary.
Bonus question: is there a way to send chat messages on Facebook using landscape mode and not having to go through 3-4 steps ?
Hope to hear from you guys soon.
This is interesting. Im used to iPhone's notification shortcuts.

Thanks for the info, but I'm not looking to get the windows lockscreen. I'm very much happy with the HTC lockscreen thus far. Just was a couple features that I had gotten used to with my jailbroken iPhone.
Your looking for something like bitesms huh? If so chompsms is pretty much is the same

Get another iphone ... Or better yet put up with what you have. Either way there is no way to do it without a 3rd party lockscreen.

i run handcent and its got all what you need lockscreen notify and a quick reply, fully costumizable, i run nothing else
---------- Post added at 07:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 AM ----------
p.s it work with the stock lockscreen
Sweet, thanks for the recommendations. As of right now I'm going with chompsms to test it out. It seems like it unlocked the phone upon quick replying and goes back to the lock screen after the text is sent. I'll keep testing it out and the other 3rd party apps. I appreciate guys.

[APK] [MOD] Side load CM10.1's MMS.apk for AOSP texting + more

Edit 2: Various replies below are currently offering up to a $50 bounty for a fully functioning CM MMS.apk for SGS4 TW
EDIT: This will work for regular SMS, but crash for all send/receive MMS. Recommended to wait until MMS will work properly.
<Insert typical disclaimer here about possibility of messing up your phone. You assume all liability/risks.>
Attached is the MMS.apk from the latest CM10.1 nightly. It includes things like emoji, notification quick reply, notification mark as read, custom vibration settings, and pop-up SMS.
I am successfully running this on my stock, rooted, AT&T SGS4.
1) Root SGS4.
2) Use an app like Root Explorer or a simple 'adb push MMS.apk /system/app' to get the MMS.apk onto your phone.
3) Drop MMS.apk into /system/app
4) Reboot. On reboot it will REPLACE SecMms, the Samsung one with hover view. However, since the Samsung one uses a different file name, if you simply remove MMS.apk from /system/app you can revert back (as SecMms still exists)
5) Profit
Extras: Yes, it can still be used with Multi-window. No, hover view does not work. Yes, you can also just run the apk and install it, but I always feel safer dropping them in myself.
I was so excited. It installed and appeared to work great but it crashes when sending MMS. This really is the single think I want more than any other is a stock SMS replacement.

Ah, you're right. Shoot.
Looks like to fix that I'll need to decomp framework and make some tweaks. I'll see what I can do and let you know...
does this one still have group chat in the settings? and does it have emoji? i remember having it on a old aokp cm10.1 hybrid
Looks good. I will wait until MMS is fixed.
Sadness. My baksmali and smali tools aren't working correctly. Can anybody else who knows what they're doing accomplish the following?

I'll give it another shot later tonight...at work now...
thanks so much for this
couple things i hate about TWZ is the SMS/browser
i love AOSP for their simple stock apps
SMS is working perfectly for me - MMS isnt a huge thing since i dont use it often
So far i have AOSP Browser/SMS...does anyone know if AOSP Phone and Contacts will be able to sideloaded too?
I really am wanting mms to work for this. Hate the stock messaging

Hey I've got a black themed one for anyone who wants to use it? There are two variants, both are named accordingly and will need to be renamed before choosing which one you want to use.
Regular layout MMS Black
OR
Bubble layout MMS Black

Thanks! Just what I wanted.
By the way, after installing this, does this add an extra page to lock screen? I have two pages showing up clock and date. Also, is it possible to get quick reply in the lock screen without ever swiping to unlock to reply?
TIA

You probably have two lock screen pages because you added two, this nor the other sms apk would add another page with a clock on it.
Go to your lock screen and swipe across the clock to the left until you see the plus button then hit it. Add a random widget.
You'll now be at a zoomed out state of all the pages of lockscreen widgets you have.
Drag any page up to the top until it turns red to remove it.
As far as quick reply i don't think so edit, i think thats just how it is. The default app notifies you of a new message on the lock screen and you click it then swipe to unlock and thats just how touchwiz works, you'll also notice no quick reply from the notification bar using the samsung sms app.
Using this apk you should be able to quick reply from the notification bar meaning if you just have swipe to unlock and no pattern or pin or anything you can pull down the notification bar from the lockscreen and hit the reply button there and that should work.
I uninstalled Mms.apk and went back to original Samsung messaging and that extra page disappeared. First pic is a my lockscreen looks with Samsung app. Second one is pic of lockscreen with custom mms.apk installed and with the original lockscreen being a second page. Ideally I want the Samsung lockscreen because it shows active alarms.
I am able to drag the Samsung screen to remove but it still shows after. I can't drag the other screen nor can I make the Samsung page my default page when I turn on the phone
I also disabled multiple widgets.

Glad you figured it out
does it still crash?
I found that mms works when I use Rom Toolbox to attach the pic
Edit: Attach the pic using Rom Toolbox....once it attaches to the text, click view and have gallery open it to view it. Press back. Click send. Done.

[Q] No SMS Notifications

I've just downloaded Themer (Beta) on Galaxy S4 GT-19505 running android 4.3
I am currently using the theme "Blur" (see attached image; being a newbie I'm unable to post the image in-post)
I use the "Textra" SMS app as I prefer it over the stock messaging app, and whilst I receive notifications no worries in the stock notification bar, I don't receive any notification on the "Text" conversation bubble (the one in the middle); I receive notifications for gmail (the icon on the right), however, no worries.
Does anyone know how I could fix this?
Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion, we'll add it to our list, therefore it should be supported in the next 1 or 2 updates :good:
Has this been updated?
I have the same problem with the same messaging app as the OP. The unread messages number never shows anything other than zero

Not yet. It's still a huge task to implement, so we're going to work on it in the future, as right now we don't have the time or resources. Stay tuned though
