[Q] How do you disable scrolling sms notifications in the notification bar.
I specifically have the Atrix if it matters but have a friend that needs ot done as well and I am unsure of their phone. I have checked the settings tons and couldn't find anything. Is there an app that allows me to still use the stock sms application but just disable the scrolling notification?
I do wish to still keep the envelope just not the scrolling text.
Don't know about the Atrix, but on the Samsung stock messaging app, open the app>settings>notifications>untick.

If I turn of the notifications within the stock app it removes the envelope as well. I would llike to keep that if possible so I have some sort of notification I have a message but without it previewing the message with the scrolling text

I usually don't get a popup for any notification.i see alot of apps for individual requirements like sms or mail. But I need a single app for all type of notification as I get on iphone. Anyone faced the same issue

most apps put notifications in the notification bar - IMO, the notification bar is superior to anything the iPhone does. Even with a PIN Lock, I can see icons telling me i have notificationas and which kind - SMS, IM, eMail, Skype, etc. All have their own icon, so for me this works better then a single notification app.
Most apps, have their own settings to allow notifications.
I too was looking for this, but now prefer the notification bar system. The popups are annoying, and only useful when using the phone if at all.
Handscent SMS has popups and quick reply if you really want to try that.
Im also using apps the nag me that their is a notification. Handscent does this, and im still dealing with how to do it for calendar. TouchWiz and Google's calendar apps really lack the features.
I jailbroke my phone mainly for notification bar icons. I want to know if i get something without having to swipe to unlock and then enter a PIN. I should be able to see that stuff from the lock screen.
try NoLED from the market place. It's free and pretty useful. When your phone is in sleep mode, it will show an icon of whatever notification you get (e.g. a mail icon for message, or cassette for voicemail)
It also keeps the background black to save battery! Very customizable, and I highly recommend it
Ive been trying to figure out how to set custom ringtones for txts for individual contacts but havent gotten anything. Can anyone help?
Use handcent sms from the Market. Turn off notifications in your stock messaging app once you've installed it to avoid double notifications. In the thread for the person whose notification tone you want to change, tap the button in the top right (the person with a gear) and choose notification settings, then notification sound.
There's no way to do it through the AOSP contacts or sms app.
thank you but thats for android. I forgot to mention I use the touch pro 2. I appreciate the help tho.
I have seen multiple threads about people asking why android notification ro status bar shows not only the Contact but also the message received via
SMS, or
Whatsapp, or
other social applications.
Now rather surprisingly, this is covered in iphone ios where you can disable notifications and alerts but stil have badges for icons showing missed count. This thread is not for the missed count since we all know how to get them. The issue is how to get rid of the notification bar pull down which shoes your message to anyone using or testing or praising your phone.
There are three possible solutions to this,
Disable notifications.....this cant be done through android os because the only option we have is to disable sms notifications and not for other apps like whatsapp.
Lock the notification bar....this means that even if the notification icon is there, you cant pull it down. Or maybe a passsword to pull it down.
Auto Clear notifications.. This means a utility that automatically "CLEARS" the notifications as and when they are received. Which will mean we stil have the notification sound of a message, the unread count is stil there ons creen but notification is cleared from the status bar
Is there a decent notifications manager on the lines above for android?
Has anyone ever found a way to disable, hide, lock or autoclear the notifications.
I am not talking about hiding the task bar like in launchers. but maybe a way to PERMANENTLY HIDE the status bar.
Someone?
Go to /system/app (Your device is rooted, right?) and freeze/remove SystemUI.apk
If you don't understand what I am saying above, don't try it or it will bring you to more trouble.

I am on LG optimus 3d and root is not an option.
Nevertheless, i understand the framres.apk, but i would want to know more about system UI you mentioned? Mind shedding some light?
thanks
Any help fellows?
I have been using SMS Popup since the original G1, but they said with the switch over to Hangouts on the Nexus 5, there are some bugs that they are unable to work out. Is there a different app you guys are using that's working without any issues? I just want the message to popup and the ability to quick reply to it.

This isn't *exactly* what you're looking for, but check out DynamicNotifications. It makes it so when you get an email, or text, it shows message details on your lock screen and you can swipe to unlock and it'll go straight to the message. Hopefully it'll fill in the gap, as I've replaced SMS Popup with it since my Galaxy Nexus.....
I'll think about it, but at the moment, I don't have a lock screen enabled.

I second this, pure stock android messaging, extremely customizable, has popup that can be toggled, toggle it to turn on your screen, change MMS size, app icon, has status bar "Read" "Reply" options, best sms app I could ask for on this device.
I am running the stock Samsung 4.3 rom on my Verizon Galaxy S3.* I use Floating Notifications to manage my app notifications.*As Android 4.3 now incorporates the Android Listener Service to handle notifications, I am able to dismiss notifications from my notification bar by dismissing the Floating Notification for the corresponding app.* I have tried multiple SMS apps including stock, and this feature works fine.* However, when I clear the Floating Notification for GoSMS, the message icon on the status bar blinks (where as the rest would go away) and stays in the notification drop down, making me pull down the notification bar and manually swipe it away.* I can also use the Floating Notification to open up*the message within GoSMS, and it still shows I have a new*message (and the LED blinks) until I go in and manually dismiss from notification drop down.* Is this a GoSMS issue?
Thanks!

It might be. I haven't used GoSMS in about a year but is there a notification setting that may be overriding Floating Notification? Which other sms apps have you tried because if those all work perfectly fine then I'd have to put the blame on GoSMS barring an overriding setting. I'm using Floating Notifications and it works great for just about every app I've used it with however I've only been using stock sms on JB TW and AOSP JB/KitKat.
