GOSMS Problem - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

A buddy of mine has his AT&T Galaxy S2 here and we have been banging our heads together trying to figure out why we can't get the pop ups to work when the phone is locked.
He gets a notification tone, but actually has to unlock his screen to see the popup.
His settings are exactly the same as I have them on my International GS3 and on my One X.
He is running the latest official ICS from AT&T.
Is there some kind of bug with GoSMS and the AT&T GS2 ?
Any help would be appreciated.

Did you select the unlock phone setting under ADVANCED settings > Notifications?

Sure do. This one is a mystery. But, probably something simple we are missing. I've only set up GoSMS on about 300 phones so far. LOL.

Well you know more than me lol. I can t think of anything else. Unless there is a secondary lock screen app interfering with go sms, like widget locker.

No, just the regular Sammy lock screen.

He's on stock ics bloatware. Found the problem.

Shouldn't matter though. Never had a problem with any Samsung phone and GoSMS before.

I use gosms pro since forever. Why would you even want your popups to show on the lockscreen? Personally I enjoy my privacy plus my girlfriend can be a real *****

Maybe because some of us don't have anything to hide?
And we fixed the problem by re-installing a modified version of the stock firmware.

GoSMS is great but can be a pain. It's happened to me before, kinda goes on and off for me.

I tried handcent but I don't like that either. Grrr.

Phone stuck in speaker phone mode

Somehow my phone is stuck in speaker phone mode as the default. Every time I make a call by default the speaker phone is on and I have to hit the speaker button. I cant for the life of me figure out how to change this option.

Battery pull? Wipe?
Check to make sure your kick stand is seated correctly. And that there is nothing stuck in there.

Do you have GoSMS installed? If so, update it. It was a known issue on previous version.

Looks like GoSMS was the culprit. Updated to latest version and problem resolved. Thanks to everyone for your suggestions.

Before going through a complete reset try clearing the app data.
My VZW S3. should be here by early July.

thanks. what app data? all?

Can't receive texts but can send them...

I'm running CM9 final and haven't had any issues lately. Today I received texts up to a certain point from some Ppl and some I didn't when they texted me. I can send out but get nothing back. Phone calls work fine and so does my data... Any ideas? Please help!

Well it's a pretty stable build. Which they wouldn't have released if SMS didn't work. Which means its user error. Either it's a setting u changed. , an app u have running, or u didn't full wipe before installing. Best guesses at least. Good luck , happy flashing

I understand that this is a legit problem you're having but please don't double post. It is against xda rules

I posted in CM9 only cuz that's the run I'm on, but thought I should post in question and answers instead. I will remember that next time. I've been on CM9 for quite a few days now and exec today I have been getting texts then all of a sudden nothing... I haven't changed anything, I was working most if the day.

You might try clearing data for messaging app on manage apps.
I tried that, too no avail.

I had good luck following this guide for setting up APN on I777 on CM9 , it is for ATT. It is from Infuse forums but it works anways. If it doesn't there is an option to reset to default.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1791526
*update* I ended up calling Att and tech support. After some trouble shooting he had me put my Simon into another phone to "wake it up, or un freeze" it then put back in my phone. I then got 18 texts when phone turned on. He said sometimes the Sim card gets confused from switch between towers and locks up. So really was an easy fix. Hope this helps anyone else. Thanks for suggestions!

That's the first time I ever heard of this happening. Weird.

Def a weird thing. But I thought it was something with the phone or especially being on a ROM. But just a confused Sim card turns out. Lol

[q] ***help power menu and lock screen***

Recently I have unrooted my device and and used Kies to get on Stock 4.0.4...My problem is when I hold the power button down, I get no options at the power down menu..the phone just shuts off and I have to power back up to turn it on. Also, there is no lock screen on my device. Please help me. I am not looking for a temporary fix like "Download GoLauncher EX..I know that works for a lock screen, but I would like to use the one intended for the phone. Thank you ahead of time for your help! I greatly appreciate it!

Aosp 4.1x - 4.2.2 torch time out

Hey all, I have a question for all you out there in XDA land, rezound county. Is there a way to prevent the torch app from timing out when the screen shuts off? It is really annoying, as the toggle and app day it is solo on. I have only encountered this issue on this device. My old T-bolt and Eris before that never had the issue. Is it an ICS/JB thing or device specific?

I tried to play with the code in the android.XML once. I was obviously unsuccessful. One thing i noticed is that it uses the keep screen on command rather than android.permission.wakelock when i changed it the app would force close so i missed something somewhere relating to permissions. I haven't messed with it in awhile but i may try again when i get my new computer
