Not sure about the stock messaging app, but with third party ones like GoSMS you can modify the notification so that it only says "new message" instead of the person and content of the message itself. If you use a third party app you will need to disable the notification for the stock one otherwise you'll get duplicate notifications.

Where can I configure sounds to be different for email vs sms/txt messages?
When you open email and go to settings you will be able to set whatever tone you want and the same applies to sms (again go into settings)
Thanks. What do you guys use as notification noises?
Use anything you want. Google "Zedge" they have hundreds on there and you'll be spoilt for choice, and its free.

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.

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/

Hello everyone.
I recently installed the CM10.1 on my galaxy s3. One thing that really annoys me is the fact that the messaging app (text messages) does not display the little bubble on top of the app to show that i have text messages. Is there a way to make it happen or am i missing something in the settings?
thanks!

try using a custom launcher like apex it allows you to set a default messaging app and various others and then have the notification bubbles there but yeah as the other guy said wrong section
Hey everyone. A few weeks ago I bought a xiaomi phone (Redmi Note 4) running MIUI 8.1.6.0. One of the first things that I wanted to enable was the hide sensitive notification on lockscreen. What I mean is that when the device is locked you get a notification on the lockscreen and it shows the content of the message. For example If I received a WhatsApp of my dad it would show Whatsapp from dad: Buy bread. What I wanted was to hide that it was my dad and the content, so it would show 1 new whatsapp message. For some reason you can't do this from MIUI settings, but after browsing the deep web I found a way to do this, and MIUI does have this feature but it is hidden. What I found is that If you download the app called Floatify and acces the help section and click on “Disable native android notifications on lockscreen“ it shows a MIUI menu that lets you choose beetween: Show all notification content, Hide sensitive notification content and Don't show notifications at all. This is what I was looking for. This keeps on working when you unistall floatify so it is a miui setting for sure. MY REQUEST IS: Could anyone please create a simple app or shortcut to acces this settings? I think it would be easy cause you would just have to see how floatify does it and copy it. This is a very requested feature on the MIUI forum but xiaomi just tells you to disable notifications themselves, so many people would be grateful. Thanks. Contact: [email protected]
Hello there!
You could try if the desired settings menu is in the list of shortcuts in the QuickShortcutMaker app found here:
>QuickShortcutMaker<
Alternatively you could also try the Hidden Settings app:
>HiddenSettings<
Good luck!

Hey thanks bro it actually works.
How to hide hide contents of locked apps only? There is a guide, http://c.mi.com/thread-170007-1-0.html?mobile=2 although why this option is not present in note 4 MIUI 8.2 I don't understand. Any help?
This is already available on Redmi note 4 (MIUI 8.2.10.0). Have you tried Settings>system & Device>Notification and status bar>App notifications>whatsapp and switch off lock screen notifications. There will be no need to download third party app.
This is a tutorial on how to do that
If anyone is still looking on how to do that, I just did a tutorial step-by-step on how to hide the notification's content. Here's the link en.miui.com/thread-913531-1-1.html

I am using MIUI version 8.5.4.0. To hide sensitive notification,
GoTo Settings -> LockScreen & Password -> Advanced Settings -> On the lock screen, Choose "Hide sensitive notification content"
Unfortunately I guess, this doesn't help in this case: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-4/help/setting-hide-sensitive-notifications-t3684607

I had completely forgotten about that and since I upgraded it's been bugging me for weeks! Thank you!
Is there a way to show ONLY the sender for whatsapp notifications but not the content, like in the iphone 'hide sensitive info' option ?
The given options here work but I would like to know the sender for all messages to choose if I want to unlock the phone to see the message or not, depending on the sender.
1.Open settings
2.Open app lock
3.Open app lock setting(click on right corner icon)
4.Open hide content option
5. choose the apps
And enjoy
Moved to this wonderful phone recently from iPhone and love it,however, I do miss a few things like making a window pop up in front of me when I have a message in notification bar. I've played with all the settings and also miss the new email or message counter rather than a small blue circle against the app. Bet there's heaps of ways! This thing can be modified to be anything! Cheers

You can have counters instead of the circle by going to Settings -> Notifications -> More Notification Settings and changing the method.
The popup is not possible by default in Android (would find that extremely annoying personally) but there are two options:
- Find a 3rd party app in the Play Store (search notification popup)
- Use the in-built popup feature for some apps like WhatsApp.

Fun fact. The pop up notifications are old Android features from 2 - 3 years ago that iOS adopted. So when you say iPhone type notifications they're actually from older versions of Android. ? They are now mostly reserved for messaging apps. You can get it working for messages and I'm sure you can find aps for the rest of the stuff. I have to admit that EMUI is not ideal for notifications.
