so i'm a hancent fan... i like the lockscreen pop up messages for new incoming text messages. i usually reply from them as well.
when doing that on the inc4g i've noticed the notification led continues to blink at me like i have an unread message. i'm assuming i can turn off the led notification completely in handcent (i do not want to do that)... or wait for the handcent devs to fix this?
I use handcent as well. I do not have that issue. Did you turn off all notifications in the stock app? Uncheck them before unchecking notifications

I don't think it's a Handcent issue. I use GoSMS and I'm seeing the same issue, although it seems to be sporadic.
All notifications from the stock messaging app are turned off.

I've notified it doing it sometimes with Chomp too. Pulling the notification bar down turns off the LED for me.
yes, opening the notification bar clears it - which defeats the time savings of replying from the popup on the lock screen
i also have turned off the stock notifications.
thanks - at least it's nice to see i'm not the only one with this issue...
speaking of notification bar - on my old inc i always hit the menu button, then notification instead of dragging the bar down from the top of the screen. does anyone know of a way to make a shortcut or something on the inc4g? only way i can find to open the notification bar is to actually drag it from the top of the screen.... is there any other way?
It's included in Viper Rom, but you'll need root to change that.

I just recently started hiding my notification bar with launcher pro and I noticed a weird bug with handcent SMS pop-up. When I go to do a quick reply the keyboard covers up the text box so I can't see what I'm typing. Anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it?

That is not a bug of LP.
Can't you disable the KB on the popups in HC? If the error is after you hit reply and bring up the KB, I'd be willing to bet that happens on ADW/TW too.

Basically I get a text and the window pops up. I tap in the quick response window and the KB pops up. When I have the status bar showing the quick response window moves up allowing me to see what I type. When I hide the status bar through LP settings the quick response window doesn't move up when the KB pops up. The issue only happens when I have the status bar is hidden.

I'm pretty sure that's a keyboard glitch. I also use Better Keyboard and get that on settings screens and such, but I use ADW. Although I also hide the status bar so maybe you're on to something.
So.... don't hide the status bar? Problem solved.
Well I've tried couple different keyboards and its the same with all of them. I like handcent for the custom notifications. I also like to hide my notification bar so maybe I'll let the dev of LP know about the bug.

I use SMS pop-up with adw and have not had this issue SMS pop-up also allows for custom tones for contacts. Hope that helps

This has been reported at handcent forum, although it happens whenever you receive a popup regardless of what app you're in, if the status bar is hidden (ie fullscreen browser, game, etc) so it being a LP issue doesn't look likely...
ive looked around a lot but havent found an answer yet, but sorry if it is a repost
anyways, i have been using handcent and i love it. but i was wondering if there was a way to also show the text message preview on the lock screen like the default messaging app does without turning on the default messaging's notifications.
or maybe there is something that allows handcent to have the pop up show ontop of the lock screen?
thanks
As far as i know handcent can't be used on the lockscreen. But handcent will cause a wake lock that bypasses the lockscreen if you answer the text quickly. Handcent is great. Its what i use.

what do you mean by wake lock?
currently what i did was enable the messaging app notifications to have it show on the lock screen but it still shows the icon in the notification bar. and if i turn off the handcent notifications, i cant get the popop.
the only nice thing is that you can use the messaging app notification and have it open in handcent, but i still want the popup after lock and during use.

The popup is the "lock screen" notification. Normally programs are not allowed to unlock the phone. They do it this way so that the first thing you see is the popup.
At least this is my understanding of it. To allow the text actually on the lockscreen would require lockscreen modification i believe.

So when I get a new SMS I get multiple notifications. On the status bar, I get the little yellow envelope thing AND some kind of white envelope thing and that makes my phone beep twice. This has happened since I OTA'd to JI6.
I get two vibrates and two ding sounds ._.
Any help appreciated.

You have downloaded some kind of texting app (Handcent/Chompsms/SMS popup?) from the market. Just disable notification from one of them.
I haven't downloaded any of those In my settings, there's an option for notification, but I can turn the notification sound to "silent" but it still double vibrates + shows an extra icon at the top. In the SMS app, there's ALSO another notification setting. I want to use the SMS' app's notification because its not accurate.
Did you download a messaging widget?
I still haven't solved the problem, and no I didn't download a messaging widget =[
Have You tried disabling the notifications in the stock messaging app? what happens?
My wifes phone is doing this also. Hancent and stock set to silent, but still getting a ring and a envelope icon that takes you to the stock message app. Fail. We have the same apps, but mine is fine

Fixed it. Uninstall beautiful widget pack 2
"Supersonicly swyped while on the the pot at your moms house. "
Thank you!!!! I had the same problem and it was driving me mad for months!!! I thought it was CM6 doing it this whole time because I just couldn't figure out what was doing it after I disabled notifications in every sms app.....stupid widgets lmao
A wee annoyance, nothing more, but whenever a new text message is recieved it shows a notification on the lockscreen until I open default app, even though notifications are off so they dont appear in status bar. I use chompsms as default and have no reason to open messaging except to get rid of the notification.
Same thing happens with facebook notifications, I do occasionally use that app at least so no biggy.
Any way to disable the lockscreen notifications for text messages altogether? They serve no purpose when "real" notification is in the status bar and clears itself with the chompsms fine.

I have a Galaxy Nexus, running AOKP. I disabled the stock Calendar app and downloaded the "newer" stock one via the Play Store. One issue I've run into with this new one, though, is that it makes the notification light blink when I have a notification for the next event on my calendar. I always liked to leave those notifications hanging up in my notification bar, because it helps me remember that I have to do something soon, but I don't like the LED blinking all the time just because I have one of those sitting in my notification bar. The LED never blinked in the original stock app...
I've looked through the settings of the app, itself, and all I can find is a setting to turn off notifications altogether, but doing so means I don't get the little reminders up in my notification bar. Did I not see the right setting, or is there no setting to turn off the LED?
What's kind of annoying, too, is that the LED notification for these reminders seems to "override" that of other notifications. For instance, I have it set up in AOKP to blink different colors when I get notifications from certain apps, but the color for the calendar notification seems to take precedence over the LED for everything else.
Any other suggestions, or am I out of luck?
