Bigger font for incoming sms preview? - General Topics

Anyone know whether we can change the font for the preview of incoming SMS?

Look for software called ZoomSMS. It was invented for Eten devices but works well on HTC phones as well.

ZoomSms don't preview automatically...

Of course it does.

i have got a copy and tried...but there is no option to preview.
it will show an icon on the screen and you will have to tap on it
to open the preview of the SMS.
and do u happen to know..how to get rid of the icon and its system
tray shortcut?
thanks..

Look in the phone settings (when you tap on antenna icon, go settings). Check all the tabs there.

thank i manage to hide the tray but still no option to preview Sms
upon receiving. Still need to tap on the mail icon to read the Sms.

voicemail notification

hi,
in order to get a voicemail-notification (tape-icon on top-bar), are there any settings i have to check with my network operator?
currently i will be notified with an sms if there are new voice-messages.
however, my phone does not show an icon, nor, even worse, the regkey
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER \System\State\Messages\vmail\Total\Unread\Count
is not available.
thnx
I'm on O2 in the UK, but I imagine T Mobile should be similar - you need to call up your voicemail and get to the settings menu and change your notification type.
You will probably be able to choose from the SMS option, a ring back option (why?) and the tape icon notification.
Hope this helps.
thanks. i thought i will be s.th. like this. tried it out, but my voicebox does not give my any other options than sms notification.
thanks anyway!

Alerts vs. menu bar

I'm not sure if this is a setting or a byproduct of TF3D, but I can't stand the way that alerts work.
If I have a reminder for an upcoming appointment, the notification toast doesn't appear at the bottom like it did with my Mogul and other WM devices. The chime goes off and the alert icon appears on the menu bar, so I hit that, I get the menu bar selection screen and then if I hit the alarm bell, the toast displays at the bottom.
I'm running the default Sprint ROM for now, with some of the basic tweaks. This (and the inability to use a 4-pin headset) are my only real remaining beefs.
Is there a config or tweak I can do, is this just the way it is?

I have a ATT fuze so I dont know how much of difference the set up is...Did you look in system, sounds and notifications then notifications then scroll to reminders and make sure display message on screen is checked...What else have you installed that could be interferring?
Slawcops hint did the trick here.
After upgrading to the newest HTC official (dutch) ROM, TF3D was always in front of such system messages.
By going into the setting menu, sounds and notifications, notifications tab
then selecting "Reminders" (I guess thats what's it called in the english version) in the dropdown box and enabling the "show message in screen" my problem was solved.
Hope this helps!
edit: It would seem this action is needed every time after a soft-reset...if anyone knows where and if this value is stored in the registry, I would really like to know.

Application that shows voicemail notification on home screen?

I searched first...
Does anyone know of an application that would show if I had any unheard voicemails on the home screen? Something that would flash up, the icons in the top task bar are very easy to miss and nothing shows that I have a voicemail on the home screen.
I miss some of the easier things that you could do on WM6.
Thanks in advance.
Widgets > Voicemail widget. I Personally don't use it. But it has an icon on it to let you know when you have x-amount of messages in a bubble.

Tried it, use it currently, does NOT show when you have unread voicemails in a bubble. Only shows it in the taskbar on top, and it uses some silly icon that means nothing to me.
Of course, this could be because I rooted.
Mine shows a little red bubble on the icon like the message icon for example. with he number of unreads in it. =/ maybe you should try reinstalling visual voice mail

Lockscreen Message notifications disappear

When I see that I have a text message indicated by either the notification light or the sony style cover window I will open the cover on my phone but the text message on the lock screen is removed almost immediately not allowing me any time to actually read the message. Has anybody else experienced this?
I've noticed that notifications from other apps will remain on the lockscreen, it just seems to be the messenging apps notifications that disappear (I'm using Xperia default messenging app).
For me to read the text message I have to unlock my phone and open the app...I would expect that it should remain on the lockscreen so that I could at least read the message - therefore allowing me to decide if I need to unlock the phone if I want to respond.
Is this something that can be changed in the phone settings somewhere...or is it a glitch? Anybody else notice this?
Thanks!
I believe I just found the answer to my own question... See attached setting
Even with the setting ON (refer to image in post above) this problem continues...
Go to settings, sound & notification, app notification. There choose all and search for Messaging. Untick block.
Thanks for the reply...I checked that setting and the block setting was already ticked off...?
i have the same problem with my galaxy s7 but the problem is still there. any help?

Lockscreen SMSs showing as icons, not expanded.

My friend has an international A51 running stock latest OS. When he receives an SMS or a whatsapp message, it shows up as an icon in the lock screen, he'd need to click the little arrow to expand, I tried looking in settings but can't find where to re-enable expanded view of notification items by default. smart pop up view is disabled for all apps, even if a single whatsapp message shows up or a single SMS (so the lockscreen isn't full), lockscreen still show it as an icon. How do I solve this?
Thanks!
Well I looked around but couldn't find it anywhere.
Anyone?
just change the view style to details in lock screen notifications settings.

It's possible I found it once before Now I do not remember exactly which part it was But you should check the settings for the notifications, or the Display
Try another thing: Disable the edge Lighting settings
I tried looking around a few times but can't seem to find it. I'll give a try today.
Thanks!
