[Q] Message Preview on Lock Screen

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!

[Q] Screen Freezing/Locking on Jellybeans build 11

I flashed Jellybeans build 11 a few days ago and have been having issues with the screen freezing/locking up 3-4 times a day. The LED continues to flash if I had a notification so I'm uncertain if it's just the GUI that's frozen or the whole system. A battery pull resolves it. I've also noticed that when I press the home button to turn the screen on, the screen is always oriented in landscape when it's frozen.
Has anyone encountered this with this particular build or ROM? Is it the ROM or kernel? Any suggestions to remediate? Besides this nagging issue, I've been happy with the speed and battery life of this ROM.

From the Beans OP under "Disclaimer":
"Aosp Lockscreen will force close when rotating if u dont turn all the options in the lockscreen menu off other than weather and clock! sence there not compatible with aosp lockscreen!"
Could this have anything to do with your problem?

Definitely! It must rotate sometimes before I lock it or it's turned a bit when I turn it on and causes it to do that. I did check the lock screen settings and did have shortcuts and ripple enabled. I've disabled this and will keep an eye on it. Thanks!

Great! Hope it works for you. I'm on this ROM and love it too

nooooooo
Yeah you have to disable all options except for time and weather, had this same problem

AOSP 4.2.2 Multi User Questions on Several Roms

I've tried setting up additional users on various roms, On Carbon and Paranoid andriod I can create users but I don't see a way of switching between the users. The only thing i could find was a user toggle on the quickpanel settings but all I could get them to do was switch to the current logged in user. Is there another way to switch through users on these roms?
On ParanoidKangdroid and PACMan I was able to set up a user toggle through the power menu, which works well, however when using multiple users, my phone gets really hot. Does anyone know why the phone gets so hot?

here
For me i had two users and i was on the one for a second person and rebooting my phone took me back to "the owner" user

Also if you enable lock screen rotation in settings, then rotate your lock screen, you should see the user switcher circle things like on the nexus tablets at the bottom.

Figured it out on jellybam rom
I found out how to do it on jellybam ROM. go to settings > bam control > power menu > users switcher. I hope it's similar on your ROM.

[Q] Pop-up notifications on Carbon KitKat Rom?

Hello there everyone, I'm using the Carbon Nightly KitKat ROM on my Samsung Infuse, and I'm in a bit of pinch here The thing is that the first time I flashed this ROM I used to get the pop-up notification on my status bar, now that I flashed it back after installing some other ROM's I dont get that pop-up, all the incoming notifications are shown just like jellybean or ics. Is there some settings for that in the carbonfiber menu? or something like that, it'd be great if it could be fixed.
Thanks in advance!

Can anyone figure out how to allow lockscreen notifications

I'm on stable global 10.0.6.0 (Android Pie) and when I get a notification, my screen will light up with the lockscreen but nothing will be displayed. Hangouts will pop up with a notification but no details will be displayed, only "double tap to view message". I thought I enabled all permissions for all apps and have the "display notification details on lockscreen" option enabled. Any insight?

Could you please try to set the default theme? Sometimes the issue is just a custom theme which has not been optimized for MIUI 10...

Thanks, custom themes would appear to be the issue here. Stock theme doesn't have this issue.
