ok, so i woke up this morning and pressed the wake(power) button on my phone like i do every morning to see what the time is. but i noticed an icon in the notification bar it was a round orange icon with a Z in the middle...i have never seen this before on any of my android phones(captivate/inspire/infuse) so than i swiped down to see what it was and it said "press here to wake phone", so i did and my phone went right into gosms as if i were sending a message (if i was sending a message last night before i wen to bed i dont remember...lol) ..and then a pop up screen came up that said "login successful". and thats it. ...i have no idea what this might be and i have not downloaded any apps in the last few days. any clues???
Go Sms was in sleep mode

That a text bubble with z's on it...guess what GoSMS's logo is...
See if you can edit when the app runs in settings.

The app is memory intensive, sleep mode occurs to save battery.

Again, I searched for about 30 minutes before posting this.. in both diamond and touch pro forums and all over here.. I figure this is a common issue, but still found nothing. Maybe I'm a bad searcher... (Sorry)
I get a ring sound, but no visual notification of texts or emails.
Is there anyway to make touchflo3D or something show the actual text message or email pop up when received?
I'm sure there's a small notification icon somewhere, but I can't see it... And even if I could.. I'd rather the message just pop up anyway.
Thanks-
You need to go to Start>settings>sounds & notifications>Notifications Tab>Event>Messaging: New text message> then click the "display message on screen" box.
Hope this is what you were looking for.
EDIT: Repeat same cycle for email notifications.

Oh geez... I am feeling pretty stupid now! Thanks for posting that... I probably deserved to get a "look at your f*ing manual" response.
thanks again.

okay im having a problem with that. I've done that several times and it works for several minutes then my on screen notification stops showing up and the setting is unchecked. Im not sure if its becuase i receive a txt msg while using an app or w/e but i have 2 go through that setting like 5x a day...its gettin annoying!!! any ideas??
Having same problem here. The "display on screen" box keeps becoming unchecked on its own. Does anyone have any idea/solution to this? I recently took my phone back to O2 to upgrade to the latest firmware, and it's still happening. I'm pretty sure it happened with the previous firmware as well.

I noticed that a long time ago too and don't have the solution.
But it seems to me that the option gets unchecked automatically only when you are doing some specifics things wth your device. Otherwise it remains checked and works properly.
For example having the option checked, open some of your usual applications and send yourself an sms (my carrier allows me to send myself an sms through their webpage ) and you 'll see that sms pops up with some of them and not with others.
Luckyly the most recent version of windows mobile (the one with the thick bottom bar) has a new notification method, so when you touch the taskbar, an amplified version of that taskbar rolls out, and there you 've a "message icon". You touch that icon and it drives you directly to the pOutlook app and shows you the message. That's Cool!

Why do I not see one thread discussing notifications? Given we don't have kernel source, BLN is not possible, but seems it would be useless anyway considering how dim the blacklights are. Also, it appears NoLED does not support the charge yet. What's everyone doing for notifications on this thing?!?!
Noled works just fine on the charge

Hmmmm wtf, I've got widget on and tried reboot, still nothing...Will dig further...Looks like this is all we will ever have though for notifs tho
Just a couple of tips; Download Handcent SMS(not sure if you can do this with stock) and change the settings to turn the screen on when you receive an SMS. If that still doesn't get your attention just set it so you receive an update every 1-15 mins if you don't check the unread messages.
I spent 2 years without a notification LED and didn't see a point to it. Loud notification alert + screen on works fine for me.

I prefer GoSMS over Handcent, way more efficient, cleaner, more features...screen does turn on when I recieve it, but if I'm out and phone is in my pocket and can't hear/feel it, I used to just take a quick glance to see if BLN was on...Rather dissapointed they didn't put an LED in here...Will look into the update thing though, thanks
NoLED works great on my charge. There is a setting for delaying it for popup txts and I have that on. You do have to be using the Glass or Puzzle lock screen for it to work, if you're on a custom rom.

I'm on gummycharge GBE, appears glass/puzzle lock screen in settings doesn't work, those are the only two options and I have AOSP lock screen...Also, just tried delay sms feature, will let you guys know a fix when I figure it out
I'm currently running raider03's ICS Smoothie with Apex launcher. The only thing I don't like is that the screen wakes up when a SMS message is received. I can't seem to find a setting to prevent the screen from waking. Anyone know of a way?
I don't know about that
but I'd also like to see a way to block notifications while listening to Google Music.
I use gosms and there is an option for "Screen Turn On" normally it's checked, but I uncheck it and my screen stays off when getting any text messages. I think it helps save battery life slightly as well

Hello everyone,
Earlier today, I decided to try out the Light Flow app (to customise LED notifications). I didn't really like it so uninstalled it again. Since then I've noticed some issues with Hangouts SMS notifications. When someone sends me a text while my phone is locked, my phone does nothing; no sound, no vibration, no LED. When I unlock the phone (just pressing the power button so the screen pops up), the message immediatly pops up as if it arrived just then.
Does anyone know what could cause this, is there some kind of option for this which the Light Flow app turned off? Also, the issue I just described doesn't always happen, sometimes messages just pop up (sound, vibration, LED) as they should, sometimes nothing happens untill I unlock the phone.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Go to SETTINGS, DISPLAY & then make sure PULSE NOTIFICATION LIGHT has been checked. Rule of thumb: Always restart your phone once uninstalling or adding an app that makes such alterations to the software for seemless performance.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. The PULSE NOTIFICATION LIGHT is checked. The problem doesn't always happen though, sometimes messages do pop up as they should. Also, apps like Facebook Messenger and Whatsapp seem to be still working as intended.
I also restarted my phone already, didn't seem to solve anything .
I think I somehow need to make sure my Hangouts app will still run in the background when the phone's asleep, no clue how though.
Any other ideas are greatly appreciated!

OK, go into HANGOUTS, hit the SETTINGS tab (3 dots at the top right corner), then click on SMS to check if NOTIFICATIONS is checked & then back out once & do the same with HANGOUTS by clicking on your email name.

Hey,
Thanks again for your clear reply! I appreciate the fact you're taking your time to take screenshots to help me out . I had all those options checked though, so that couldn't have been the issue. I think Light Flow somehow altered my software so other text programs don't run in the background anymore. Although this doesn't explain the fact that most of the time messages seem to appear as they should. I'm lost... :laugh:

You're very welcome. Is suggest downloading LIGHT FLOW once again and see if there's a setting you can unchecked then uninstall. Also check ACCESSIBILITY setting and uncheck LIGHT FLOW. I believe it should pop up in there once installed.

How about clearing data of or uninstalling/reinstalling Hangouts?
I'm having the exact same problem. It also started after removing Light Flow. Did you get it working again? I tried different SMS apps but still no sound when I receive a incoming text msg.

Hi there, anyon knows how to get rid of that message? it's frankly driving me nuts...
Thx
Its in the settings.
I dont have my phone yet(will by tonight) but from the reviews i say there was a setting to add the normal app drawer icon and disable the swipe.

Yes there is. You can either have no drawer or a drawer icon. I'll let you discover how in settings.
Go to settings then display and turn on easy stand
Easy stand? Haven't seen that yet...
I think I didn't explain myself correctly, I want to get rid of the Text message that scrolls from time to time and keep the swipe...
same issue

I remember that it's some built in "help and tips " app but I don't remember what it's exactly called. In it you can disable all these annoying hints.

after my first reboot and a night on the charger it is gone. maybe a number of uses gets rid of it.

Hello, I have figured this out after searching and coming up empty. It was annoying me too.
Press and hold on the home screen like you're going to add a widget. Click 'home screen settings'. Click apps button and choose 'show apps button'
The swipe motion will still work to open the apps.
Take care

Use the Samsung members app. Log in and use the device management in there to clean ram and storage. It stopped for me after using that.
Just enable and apply the Apps Button, then disable and apply the Apps Button and it will go away.
use nova launcher,done,never appears.
Just got a new replacement device after a cracked screen and the "swipe up Or down on screen for all apps" won't go away on home screen. Never an issue on my old device. Does anyone have any new details on this besides a work around?
I will go away in a week or so. Mine was driving me nuts and it went away without me doing anything.
Just scroll up or down through the app/home screen 20-30 times in a row and it will go away. It was driving me nuts and I found this discussion. Saw it was going away after a certain amount of time so I scrolled through it a ton and it was gone. Lol.
Reboot
I went through the swiping up and swiping down and it still showed the message after. But then I shut down the phone and powered it on and it was gone. Just like another user mentioned.
