is there a way to unlock the phone and go directly to a missed message? It seems the only way is to put the messaging app as a lock screen shortcut, then drag that to the circle, but this doesn't go to newly received messages, it just goes to a list of all your message threads
I'm also really curious about this. I don't think we can go directly from the lock screen to the message itself, from what I've tried.... Anyone else more familiar with Sense 3.0?

This may have been asked before but I am awful at navigating the xda search. Basically, my question is: Is there a way to link text notifications with the Epic lock screen without using the default Messaging app?
Example: When I get a text while the phone is locked using default messaging app, I drag the lock down and the unlock takes me directly to my inbox.
Is there a way to do this same thing but using an app such as GoSMS, ChompSMS, or HandcentSMS instead of the default Messaging application?
If you know of a way, please let me know.
Thanks.
With handcent I just use the pop up, I have it set to private so it doesn't come on when the screen is locked, and when I unlock it its right there, not exactly my inbox but I can read and reply messages, works on any lock screen also.
It's really odd and I can't figure out how to change it. When widget locker is enabled and I get a new text, I scroll down (captivate btw) and click to read message........and the last message the person sent me shows up. None of the arrows to move to the new message work, and when I click 'open' it takes me to the normal captivate lock screen.
My best method so far is to scroll down, open message, see the old one, close the text box, unlock the phone with widget locker, and then open my messaging again....which is a fail IMO.
Help if you can!
Is there any way to stop notifications from showing on the screen so they can only be read through the pull down from top menu? Either that or instead of showing the actual messages just have it show something like "WhatsApp New Message"
I'm not talking about the lock screen.
Apparently this is an app issue, WhatsApp and Hangouts display a banner when a message is received, haven't figured out a way to disable them yet though.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Settings->Sound & Notification somewhere there there a when the screen is locked button
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?
I've been noticing that when I get a brand new text, if I try to see it by double touching on it from the lock screen, it disappears, as if I never got the message. And even when I open the messaging app, the text still won't be there. Wondering if anyone else has this problem? And is there a way around it or fix it?
