Whatsapp notifications - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey. I have a question about Whatsapp notifications in notification bar.
Every time a message is received, it shows a notification. So far, so good.
Thing is, I can't swipe it away / delete it. The notification disappears and just comes back again. I have to read the message for the notification to disappear for ever.
Can anyone help with this annoying issue?
Galaxy i9300 owner.
Thanks!

It is the default behaviour of that app,. Don't worry you'll get used to it

When my friend (another i9300 owner) deletes the notification, it disappears forever. Mine just keep coming back...
I don't believe it's default :/

no, its the app.. i have the same problem with whatsapp...

[Q] Remove lock screen message notification?

Hi, I've recently installed handcent sms to replace the default messenger on my P500 flashed with void rom.
Now my problem is that every time I receive a new message and read it with handcent, the lock screen still shows that I have an unread message. I've pretty much disabled everything I can in the default messenger settings but its still no good.
So anyway around this problem? Will I have to uninstall messenger? If so, will that have any adverse effect on my phone?
I had same prob.
I removed handcent then reinstailed and rebooted, that fixed the problem for me.

i have the same problem with my p500. but i will give my shot to this solution.. thank you. hope it will fixed my notification in my screen. even if i don't have any unread messages.
----------------------------
UPDATE!.
not working ... still i have notification in my homescreen when it's lock.
I have an issue similar to this. When I get a new SMS message, my lockscreen will say "651 unread messages" and then that text will scroll down and disappear and be replaced with "1 unread message". It's not a huge issue, but it is annoying. Anyone find a way to get rid of this double text? I have notifications turned off in the android messaging and all the regular stuff you'd expect done, yet this persists...
i have the same problem, the workaround is to remove the default messaging app.
However this broke MMS for me, I was unable to receive them anymore!!
Any other solutions?
Remove lock screen message notification
Regarding this bug what i observed is..,
1. To remove Notification like "1 unread message" on lock screen, you have to open default message app and close (this is annoying though).
2.Till now i didn't find any solution even after Uninstall > install > rebooting....
3. One thing we can try is deleting default message app, this is not possible unless your phone is not rooted.
and I tried this with both Handcent and GO-SMS pro, and currently using Go-SMS pro..
Anybody comes up with the solution (other than point 1) let me know..

There is no good solution. The default messaging application is hardwired to the lock screen.
- uninstall the stock app
- replace or hack the lock screen
Bug LG if you want it fixed.
Thanks for the info.., I'm still a noob...have to spend some time to learn Rooting n all other stuff.... later will try to delete stock app..
I've got the same issue but I found a way out i.e. use the pattern lock. The unread message count won't be seen on the lock screen

Messaging alerts while screen is locked fail to show.

Anyone else notice that if the messaging app is open to a conversation, and the phone goes into lockmode, or you lock it and a new message comes in, it doesn't make a peep, or flash the LED?
Am I missing a setting?
Don't think it's a setting.
I know when you have the messaging app open no notifications occur if you are in the same conversation. I think if you are in a different conversation you do get notified via task bar and vibrate/sound. I guess by design since you are there. So it seems that even with the screen off it knows where you are and won't notify.
I never noticed this since I never got a text with the app open and screen off.
Which was the exact reason I use go sms. I missed too many important texts that required immediate answers.

You could try downloading a new messaging app. I recommend GO SMS

Txt showing a notification but I don't have any new Txt.

Ok my phone is showing that I have a notification in my Txt messages but I have no msgs. I have removed the Txt from the home screen and deleted all of my Txt msgs but it still shows that I have one Txt. I also cleared the cache and have no notification in the lock screen. Any suggestions? And I'm sorry if this is in the wrong spot.

Try rebooting the phone.
I did. I've tried everything short of un installing the factory txting app and I would do that if I could figure out how to get rid of the factory apps.

By a notification in your text messages, do you mean in your notification bar or does the icon show a "1" on the icon?
Mine do the same thing on the lock screen. The way I get rid of those notifications is to go ooen every single message that u get. With the emails I need to delete unopened emails because it will always show that I hsve new emails. For me is annoying because on my fascinate I just ipen a message from the notification bar and it will mark it read.
Opening a text message from the notification bar will mark it as read on this device too.
Swiping it away (or even clearing notifications) does not, never has, and probably never will (as stock).
Shows a 1 over the Txt icon, only after the phone has been unlocked though.

If nothing else, clear data on the messaging app.

I've tried that already also. That's why I'm so confused.

I have the same problem
if you are still having problems with this try the following.
go to settings - application manager - swipe across to ALL - scroll down to badgeprovider and clear the data and the restart your phone. This cleared the message icon for me. Hope it helps out some other folks who are having this issue.
