My screen is turning on when SMS is received - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

my screen is turning on when I receive an SMS. Why is that? I want to stop it. I´m using an app to disable the screen lock, so it´s risky when I receive an sms with the phone in pocket and no lock.

sounds like that very app is causing your problems!

[q] linking market sms app to lockscreen

I think only Orb Unlock (Puzzle Unlock) and Glass Unlock (Screen swipe) are able to display stock SMS notifications on the lockscreen.
Since I'm using GoSMS, is there a way for when I unlock with the "Missed text" icon on the lockscreen it brings me to GoSMS and not the stock SMS?
I don't remember if it was an older version of the ROM I'm on (Serendipity) that when I unlock the Missed Text icon when it has 2+ missed messages, it asks me what app to open for it. But that doesn't happen anymore. And when you unlock it with 1 missed text, it automatically opens with the stock SMS. <~ Might even be on a different ROM but I don't remember which, either way... I can't figure out how to get it to work the way I described.

If anyone is using serendipity and the orb/ glass unlock that enables stock SMS on the lock screen, any of you having a problem where the stock SMS opens quite slow when you open it through the lock screen?
Also still wondering how to link after market SMS apps to be used in lock screen as well

Hi:
I too would like to use Handcent with the stock (AT&T) puzzle indicator. I have found several threads with this question asked, but none have answers. Does anyone know if this is even possible? If so, how?
Or is it just impossible?
Thanks!
MikeyMike01 said you would need to hack the sms app. Since they aren't open source, I don't think it's possible.

[Q]How to disable phone wake-up on text messages

Anyone knows how to disable the phone from waking up when I receive a txt msg.
On HTC you had a option for it in the txt menu.
But on the LG you don't (Or I havn't found it).
So anyone knows how to disable it?
Well mine doesnt wake up at all when I get texts or emails. Cant remember where I selected that setting tho

Mine only does that with texts, not with mail.
Please search how you did it
I think the reason why it doesn't wake up with email is because im not using the stock email client . I am using K9

You use stock text client?? Cause the stock text clients wakesup the phone.
Yea I am using the stock one, and it doesnt wake up my phone.
Still the phone keeps waking up on txt msg.
Just try out GO SMS Pro, it's free and in my opinion much better than the standard one! Lot's of options there, including an option to not wake up

I want to keep it stock. So not a option.
Do you have locking enabled, or what kind of screenlock you have.
If you have no lock, it will wake-up your phone.
If you use pattern lock it doesn't wake-up the phone.
I use go sms pro. Try it, you can uninstall it.

text notifications very erratic

my email notifications work perfectly, but my text notifications are so erratic that I'm considering returning the thing (& I love it).
Sometimes I get the notification right away, sometimes it comes in 5 minutes after the phone gets it and other times I don't get it at all.
Is there any fix for this??
I got my first text on my watch today since I had the watch last week. I really want to keep it, but I want to see what the possible Google watch will be later. Also for your question try restoring your gear and repairing with phone. I'm sadly sending mine back.

Reminder if you get a text or email while phone on, you will not get notification through the Gear.

I have had zero issues with text notifications. Make sure you uninstall any other txt messaging apps. When I had gosms installed I didn't get any notifications. Once I uninstalled it, I get perfect notifications.
If you download the nodded SMS a pk you can have texts come in without turning your screen on. This makes texts appear on the watch instantly cause the screen is off.

Download what??
Sorry about that. In the themes and apps section of your note 3s XDA you can download a modded MMS apk so your screen does not turn on when you get a text message
Issue probably is related to the screen turning on when a text arrives, which could be happening from another SMS app you have downloaded.

Can you elaborate.

I find that notifications in generally slow; when they appear (usually within 5mins of appearing on phone). My Pebble is instant

I installed this app and set it to not light the screen on receiving a text, now my text notifications are almost instant.
That is great news. Glad I could help

Google Messenger not turning display on ?

I started using Google Messenger recently, and one thing I noticed, is that when the phone is off to the side, and I get a new text message, the screen doesn't pop on, like it did with stock Messages and Textra.
Is there some Settings somewhere I need to enable that ?

From my experience, you need the Tasker app and set up a profile to turn the screen on. That is the only way I have found that works consistently. You will also need the Secure Settings app.
The Tasker app can seem overwhelming, but if you take your time and read some of the help files, it is actually pretty easy. I use the same app to turn my phone to vibrate when the phone links to my work wifi.

SMS app Notifications

I have my P20 pro since Mars and I have problems with my SMS app notifications, they are not reliable, sometimes i receive a sms I get the notification in that moment, other times I open the app to see that I had recibed a sms several hours erlier and din't get any notification like sound, led light, diplyed on the Always on screen or dot over the app.
I'm using the MS launcher (the E.M.U.I 9.1 is just awful) with all permition and app runing on back ground. This apens with de system sms app or any other app for sms that I instaled and just apens with the SMS app everything else works perfect, also tryed other launchers and hard reset the phone.

Did you try settings>>battery>>app launch? Make sure you select the sms app and set it to manage manually and make sure the options to run in background etc are both set.
Cheers

If you're using the stock app, have you turned off WiFi messages?? In chat feature??
Doesn't always work and can cause delays as it will assume your recipients also have the same features set up.

You aren't online. There's no connectivity icon at all.
We have the same phone so it should be available.
Unless its region specific, but I doubt that.
Install another messaging application, handcent used to be pretty good, but it's been a while.

I think that is a regional feature, even with mobile data on still don't have 'chat features'. I also have sms organizer from Microsoft, nice app, but the problem persist.
