[Q] Message Preview on Lock Screen - HTC Sensation

Hello,
I have not found this question about the sensation but apologies if I have missed it.
I am just wondering if there is a way of disabling the message preview on the lock screen but leaving it so it DOES still show on the status bar. I like the fact that you can read a message 'in app' as it scrolls across the status bar but don't like the idea of the message popping up and staying on the screen if you leave my phone sat on a desk!

messages>settings>notifications>untick notification preview
this way will also toggle the status bar preview

Thank you for the reply but...
As I mentioned, I still like the status bar notification preview but don't want the lock screen preview. It's my understanding that your suggestion turns off both?

It will turn off both... I think its not possible with HTC lockscreen (atm) but you can use an additional Lockscreen like Widgetlocker.

I thought that may be the case, I know it can be done on galaxy sII.
Thank you though.

settings-privacy- then untick it

I was looking for this too since it was available in Gingerbread (sense 3.0) but i think it's not available in sense 3.6! This is what i did: I unticked the option in privacy settings and then i flashed shnizlon's AOSP theme and chose to install ONLY aosp status bar with toggles! Now i have sense with AOSP staus bar ( which i prefer ) and messages are shown on the status bar but not in HTC lockscreen! You should know that when you flash this mod it automatically replaces the Sense settings with the aosp one so you must UNTICK the option in privacy settings before you flash the mod OR change the same option in messages settings!

possible to hide notification bar, but still pull down?

Is this possible
hide the notification bar
but still be able to pull down and reveal notifications
I've always wondered so. It would look so clean, and work so well with certain setups!

I know you can on ADW EX..... can't remember whether Go Launcher or Launcher Pro can.....haven't used those in quite a while....
Long days and pleasant nights............
ADW Launcher Ex does that. it's what i use. then just set gestures - swipe down - open notifications.
oh damn, thanks anyways
im on LPP
Launcher Pro does do this. At least hides the notifcation bar. I use a swipe up to show the notifications. Doesnt take to long to get used to..
Also try Zeam if you prefer something lightweight.

Go Launcher has a function you can set to draw the status bar up and down. It works very well, Drag up and it goes away. Drag down and it appears. Drag down and notifications then drag down.

ADW is what i'm using now and am loving it for this reason. On my hero and evo i always used lp, when i got the epic it was go launcher. Even though i used ADW in the past i just stumbled across that feature recently and it is by far my favorite.
+1 for zeam on lightweight launchers.
Ics launcher will let you hide the notification bar and give you a taste of ICS at the same time

im using launcher pro and i do not see any options to use a 'swipe' action for custom actions.
how ever i do have my status bar hidden and changed my home key button to show/hide my notifications instead of showing a preview of all my screen which works better for me since im only using 3 screen

long press one of the dock icons, you can then choose "Swipe gesture"
I do the same as lilmexx, hide notification and swipe up across my dock icon to open the notifications.

oooh okay i gotcha.. forgot about those settings. pressing the home button for me seems to work better though & faster as sometimes it doesn't pick up my swipe action on the 1st try all the time
thanks guys!!
now my themes can get craizer!

Notifications bar

I know Asus probably felt like they just had to bring their contribution to ICS, but the minute I saw the noticiations bar I realised this just couldn't have made by Google (too ugly, doesn't fit in and laggier than the stock one). So is there any way to get the stock ICS notifications back?
Maybe you should take a look at the settings before asking a stupid question like this.
lol would anyone like me to port these to ics?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1464213
Go into settings, select ASUS customized setting, then under notification panel uncheck Use ASUS Quick Setting.
After this it shows the old honeycomb notifications bar, what i dont unterstand is, why you can't deactive notifications in the new asus bar.
To remove all notifications, tap the X at the bottom of the notification screen.
To remove one notification, swipe from left to right on that notification and it is gone.
I don't mind it tbh.

How do I enable the status bar in the stock Browser

Is there a way to always keep the status bar on when using the stock Sense browser? I ask because I like to look at the Wifi/3G icon to see that I'm actually receiving or sending data, also would be nice to see if I jumped back to 2G or something.

Have you enabled quick controls by any chance? If yes disable them. I find the implementation in Sense stock rather inconvenient but ICS+ actually has it right.

Missed Call Notification

I have searched for the answer, but I have been unable to find one. All of a sudden, the notification bar stopped showing missed calls. I found a setting to turn on lock screen and notification bar notices. But, I don't want a notice on the lock screen, only the notification bar. Is there a setting I am missing?
Edit - I have an HTC Inspire and I am running "Android Revolution HD 7.0.4 w/ HTC Sense 3.5".
Which ROM?

You will probably have better luck in their q&a thread. I know there are a lot of flashable zips for android revolution so your problems may be related to flashing one of them, or not, but either way you will have better luck in their thread.

[Q] Tweaks in JB on TF101

I just installed RaymanFX's JB CM10 port and I am very happy with it. However, there are still a few things that I don't know about Jelly Bean. Maybe somebody can teach me
How do I remove all notifications at once from the status bar? On ICS I clicked a small "x" and all notifications disappeared.
How do I get the little dots back that indicate on which home screen I am? I tried the setting "settings -> Launcher -> Homescreen -> Show page indicator" but it doesn't show.
I might add to this list as I familiarize myself with that amazing ROM.
Thanks all

At the top right of the notification pop-up you'll see three slanted bars. Click that to remove all notifications.
Yeah, the slanted lines act as a clear notifications.
As for the home screen indicators, I'm not sure if the stock launcher has that ability. You might have to install another launcher. Lately, I've been liking Nova, it's really customizable.

Thanks! I just noticed the bars... Maybe they are supposed to symbolize all the notifications being swiped away???
For the homescreen indicators you can use any other launcher... Beeing using nova launcher and no problems so far...
