Hi all
I have a frustrating issue with my HTC One Mini, which I think has been since the 4.3 update, and wonder if it is just me??
I am pretty certain that when I received either a text message or an email when the lock screen is on, it previewed the message. Well not any more! I used to find this really handy!
All settings seem correct, in security and the mail app etc.
Any information or fix appreciated.
Thanks
I'm sure I've read someone else with similar issues on here, maybe a 4.3 issue. Have you checked "personalize" under settings and made sure your lock screen it's set to the right mode?

Hi, thanks, yes I seem to recall reading something about this, but cannot find any info after searching!
Yes, all settings correct..........
Yup, this thing came with Sense 5.5, afaik no way around it
I think you can disable or enable to read at the security then you can enable the message preview. You must of hit disabled when you made your lock screen. Hope that helps.

Sounds interesting, but not entirely sure what settings you mean. I have the notification settings set under Security, is there another settings?
Thanks!

Did you turn on bypass to lock screen? If you did, try not to or remove the lockscreen then try to see if you can receive messages.
HTC have confirmed to me that the 4.4 KitKat update will address this issue. However, no timescale was given for the release date.
Anyone know when this might roll out to UK users?
Thanks

Users in the 4.4.2 KitKat thread are already using it and say it still isn't fixed.

Time for a simple alternative . Anyone tried NiLS or Screen Notification apps?
Thanks

Hi,
Since two days I'm a happy and proud Note owner, but there's one thing, that makes me really go crazy:
I installed the program "Widgetlocker", because the standard lockscreen is quite broing. It actually works quite good, but sometimes the standard lockscreen still apears. Not instead of the widgetlocker, but additional. So I always have to unlock two lockscreens.
Does anybody else has got this problem? And how can I fix it?
I tried to find a solution in different forums and in the program configuration, without sucess!
Thanks for help!
Edit: The error apears mostly when there's a pop-up (gtalk e.g.) or when I plug in the charger....
I turned on root helper and home helper in settings, that fixed it for me. I'm on Stock Rooted XXKK9 if that helps.

I presume you have set the lock screen to "none" in the actual phone settings too?

Hi, chrcad,
Finally, the someone else who's been having the same problem.

My widgetlocker works fine. Been using it since day 1. Hmm.. Sorry. Not sure how to help.
chrcad,
Your problem seems related to the fact that Android is not having enough memory left ans simply closes "useless" apps and considers that WL is part of them. To prevent that to happen, simply check in advanced settings the "refuse to suspend WL" box and Android will look another application than WL to close

Thanks @ everybody for the help, but unhappily it's still not working properly.
The problem always apperas, when the phone's sleeping and a gTalk message comes in.... but ONLY, when the gTalk ppop-up is activated......
Any (more) idea?
you are leaving it running all the time aren't you?
I use to have the same problem, very rarely but it was still annoying. I have put a lock on widgetlocker so if I ever close all programs, widgetlocker is still running. It's not happened since but it's only been a few days so I'll see.

Some pop-ups cause this if they're designed to appear underneath the stock lockscreen rather than dismiss it.
For now:
1) Easy Wake Mode disables the system lockscreen
2) WL Settings > Long-press volume down for Experimental > Aggressive Dismiss stock lockscreen. This should work, but it's not well tested yet so it's off by default.
Not sure if anyone else has had this problem, but when I upgraded Viper recently on my phone, text message previews keep coming up on the lock screen (showing my messages). I have the Settings --> Privacy --> Message notification preview, turned off but it still keeps showing the message.
Anyway to still keep the notification (and status bar notification) but leave the preview off? It was working before. Not sure if anyone else has had this problem. I looked for answers but only found the above setting, but no dice.
If anyone anyone can help or provide any suggestions, it would be much appreciated.
I think it's already been mentioned in the development thread and Turge is looking into it.

This was resolved in 2.4.0
I never thought I'd say this, but coming from an iPhone and I feel like Apple actually has the better notification system. Is there a trick with EMUI to get notifications to be able to open from the lockscreen? I don't want to have to go all the way in to the app to reply to a text (stock app) or email (Google inbox). It seems as though you can do nothing with the lockscreen notifications besides look at them. I'm talking the main screen by the way, not the actual notification screen. Please help a returning Android consumer of you can. I'm hoping there's just a setting somewhere I'm missing to get this to work. Thanks!

Maybe this?
Yea I get the notification on the lockscreen, I just can't do anything with it other than double tap to open the respective app. With the iPhone, I can reply to a text or email directly from the lockscreen without ever leaving the lockscreen.

If you install/use Textra instead of the stock text app, I believe you can reply directly from the notification.
Yes that's the route I'm going to have to go. Thanks for the replies...Stock just doesn't do it.

In fact huawei notifications are not actionable. I doubt it'll be same for third party apps too

Setting-notification management-setting(top right corner)-when device is locked.

FYI, I have noticed one strange oddity when replying to texts directly from the lockscreen in Textra, vs. unlocking the phone and replying: when typing in my keyboard (I use Swiftmoji), press & hold on keys doesn't work. For example, to do an exclamation point in this keyboard, you press & hold the period, which brings up the exclamation point, question mark, etc. Press/hold doesn't work. But if I unlock and continue my reply, it works.
Personally, it's not a big deal to me to unlock the phone and reply from the app, except when the phone is sitting on my desk. I'm not really sold on the rear mounted fingerprint sensor. My phone is most often laying near me face up.

Crap...Got excited when I found that, but didn't make a difference. Thanks anyway..Thought that may have been the simple setting that I was missing.

Never mind, you got it.
Updated to Pie. The split screen option is not in the menu no matter what app I try it with. I've checked every place I could think of in Good Lock, Nova Launcher & Samsung settings & can't find anything that would be preventing it. I even tried under Samsung Launcher & had the same result. If anyone has any ideas, please share.

If you have a specific app that you need to use in Multu-window with YouTube, you can also use the apps edge panel to open the pair simultaneously.

Thanks, but as you can see from the picture I posted, I know how to do it. The problem is the split screen option is not available.

I tried a few things but couldn't replicate what you are experiencing. Are you running Good Lock? I know it has a feature that modifies multi window, but I don't know if it would cause the issue you have.
Did you take the ota directly from the carrier? Or did you flash the new pie update? Mine came from the carrier last Thursday. Today, I backed up everything and did a factory reset and it feels like it's running smoother. Maybe that could fix your issue.
Turns out it was a bug in Good Lock's Multistar. They pushed an update last night that fixed the problem for me. Thanks to all for trying to help.
Hello,
I have tried every option to show the Notifications on the LockScreen either with Details or only the icon with no success!!!!!
Is it designed that way? I didn't think so but this is what I am finding out
One more thing,
When I pause the song/podcast via my Wireless headphones, I need to unlock the device so the audio will continue after i press play?
Is it the same issue? that once the screen is locked the device basically is cut off?

Hmm kinda weird what music player are you using that it won't show on your lockscreen for me Spotify works fine on my lockscreen.
I use Podcasts Addict and Spotify as well,
But both of them and ALL ALL other applications are not showing.
PS: I noticed that the Screen Lights up when I receive anything but it doesn't show up;
I need to Unlock the device to see from which application and what the details of it.

Thanks for the quick reply,
It seems that my settings page is different from yours;
I don't have the "Advanced Settings" also Notifications on LockScreen is Already Enabled.
PS: I am on the Chinese Rom, Version 2.45.

Since I got it, it's been the same as this; a VERY BAD experience that I am having.
Otherwise, the device is great.
Unfortunately, i can't install the Global Version!

Looks like this time they locked people out of installing the global ROM.
Any One have an Idea About this? And I am the only one with Chinese ROM that facing this issue?
