Does anyone know a registry entry to enable alerts for incoming text messages?
Thanks
Have you tried the settings?
This is changed in settings, sounds & notifications, notifications tab, In the "Event" pull down select "Messaging: New text message" then check the box for "play sound" and change the sound. This setting is muted if the ringer / sound is muted however.
I have it unchecked in call settings to not show text and reminder options for declined calls, yet it still does this.
Any way to definitely disable this behavior?
I have a problem with call log. When I tap phone the upper part of the screen is blank. There is no numbers, calls etc. It's not a problem with hiding call log, I try this options but still call log is blank. I can not check who was trying call to me or use last numbers. Do You have any idea?
The incoming call screen displays the "recent calls" and " recent message" from the contact calling in . How to disable the two messages all together? For me personally it is not helpful and is quite annoying to have it displayed during each incoming call. If I disable "Preview Message" option in messages>>settings>>notifications, the incoming call screen shows the recent message and time without the contents though.But this also disables viewing message contents in notifications as well, which is undesired result. I want to do away with just any info about call log or message on the incoming calling screen. Any solutions much appreciated. Using an S7 930F Internaitonal Version.
This is the topic on sony forum: https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xper...pp-content-on-notifications/m-p/1282131#M9749
Can anyone else confirm that iussue? Are you able to silence the notifications...without they "come back" to be active by theirself? Is very annoying...
Even if i set on oreo app notification "low"....when a i receive a message it turn on automatically on "urgent" again...
I found a trick by myself. The problem is that the notification channel on android oreo reguarding an application "prevails" on the settings within the application itself, in this case whatsapp. If we want, as in my case, to receive notifications of a new message only in the notification bar (without pop-up on the screen) and without sound, it will not be enough to adjust the settings only within the application, but we will have to do it in the new "notification channels" introduced with oreo. However, there is one however, if we set the notification when a new message arrives on "low" (without sound and without visual interruption) at the next message, Oreo will change "by itself" this setting on high , with sound and pop-up screen. Even within the application itself the settings will be changed with the sound on, while those regarding the pop-up notification will remain the same, although the pop-up will be displayed theanyway. The only way to prevent Oreo from overwriting and shaking our settings is this: 1) Adjust the desired settings within the application (no sound, vibration on, NO pop-up) then go to the notification channel of whatsapp and set the importance of the message received on "high", then click on it and change the ringtone to "none". In this way we will to not receive the pop-up on screen notification and settings will be respected. It seems to work, although this morning the urgency of the notification was back on "urgent". Again changed, and seems to be back to normal now. Let me know your experience about that.
