I have had the HTC One for over a week now but i still cant set the Notification to what i want, Even though it says in the settings that i have a Custom notification set, everytime i get a text it has defaulted to the "Lime" notification. Does anyone else have the same problem.

found out how to do it after lots of messing around! you have to go into messages, settings and set the default notification there.

Hiya
is there a way to remove / stop my sms/mms been previewed on the status bar at the top of the screen
its a bit of a privacy nightmare having 1/2 a message shown
esp as 1/2 a message can be taken out of context
ive been searching but there are so many ways to describe what i want to happen im getting no where
any pointers would be awesome
regards D
You'd have to disable the notification all together.
Or switch to another sms app.
You might be able to disable the notifications and use Missed Call to still allow led's and notification sounds when you get a new sms.
Just a thought, havn't tried this myself.

Have you tried to disable the notification in the settings.

Try the app Missed Call.
It might let you get the led's back so that you'll know when you get a sms.
Good luck with this.
if i could program id take a look at the code for the app and remove the line or two that does the displaying lol but i fail at even bash
aww i had hopes then but i will try other missed call apps and maybe a new sms app if i can find a good one
download dgalert from the market. you can customize a lot and it replaces the default notification but trust me its better. give it a try..theres an option for privacy that doesnt show the text
chompSMS is one of the best apps i can think of. great interface, tons of notification settings like choosing what color icon you want, led color, showing the message in the status bar, etc

Hi,
I am trying to change my sms tone .... and everywhere is saying i do this via notification tone under settings and even apps such as ringdroid change the notification tone... but for some reason this does not change my SMS tone ... I remember I did change it once to bubbles because I was sick of my sms and battery full being the same and now I can't remeber how I did it
I am not usind a custom rom, just the stocky 2.2
anyone know how I did it
Thanks,
Xalies
Go to messaging app then go to settings, scroll down to the bottom, there you will see select ringtone.

thanks... I feel my noob showing now
I feel like an idiot...I've been trying everything since I installed Zedge to get the damn default tone to change to silent...could not understand why changing it in settings wouldn't work. TYVM!!
Hi,
Hopefully a very answer to what should be a simple setting.
I've migrated to the HTC Incredible S from HTC Magic. The trouble is when I receive a text message the icon is shown but the message itself is also shown on screen. I can't find an option to get rid of that.
All I need is the icon showing me I have a message.
Thanks
Go to Mail -> Settings (by pushing the button with the 3 strips) -> More -> Settings -> Notification settings -> Activate Email notifications.

Hi,
Thanks for replying. However, it's not the mail notification I concerned about but text/SMS notification. I just want to disable the message showing on my screen when a new message is received.
I can't seem to find an option to remove this.
I think your barking up the wrong tree there jkolner, sounds like he is taking about the preview of a text message on the lockscreen....
I have looked for a way to remove this myself, and as far as I can tell the only way to stop it is to use a replacement lockscreen like widget locker. seems a bit of a security oversight in my eyes, should be a setting.
Arh... i use GoSMS so i don't have that problem.
The only thing i can find is Message -> Settings (by pushing the button with the 3 strips) -> Settings -> Notifications.
But that don't solve the problem :-(

You don't have Handcent SMS installed by any chance, do you? That will show any new SMS as a pop-up on your screen by default, but you can switch it off in the settings.

If you use the default lockscreen and the default messaging app, when you get a new text it displays the content on the lockscreen. I think this is the problem he is talking about.

Ah, fair enough. I usually customise the hell out of any phone I get as soon as I switch it on for the first time (and I cannot stand the default Messaging app), so I am oblivious to this particular issue.
I have ChompSMS installed. Again this does not provide a setting to disable this kind of notification. I'll have to look into installing a different lock screen.
I'm just surprised that this is not a setting that can be switched off.
So I got my phone yesterday, I noticed the ringtones increase in volume and there is no way to change it and I also don't have the option to hide sensitive data on the lock screen for emails and text messages. I checked for an update on my phone but it says it's up to date. I looked up tips and tricks for lollipop and some of the stuff that's mentioned in the posts, I don't have the options to use them, any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Yeah there is no way to change the ascending ringtone..i dont like it.
you can turn off the messages on the lockscreen by going to
settings/sound & notifications/When device is locked
Please search next time there are ~5 different OPs discussing this.

I want the notifications on the lock screen but I want to hide the actual text from the message, so if someone looks at my screen it shows a message from so and so but the actual message portion is hidden.
There are 2 things bugging me at this point and want to know if i am just overlooking the solution. The first thing is can we remove the auto brightness slider from the Notification Bar? I have looked and searched all over i cant seem to remove it. Second thing is is there any way to stop the screen from turning on when i receive i new text message using the default messages apps? I usually dont use default messaging apps however i want to use the edge lighting and people edge notifications. Anyone figured out how to get rid of these 2 issues?

Unfortunately the brightness slider can not be removed as it's built into the framework, also no way to disable screen wake with stock text messaging app (until we get root if it ever happens)

Text Message screen - Have you tried going into the text message app, swipe left, under Advanced, Settings, uncheck Enable Popup? My screen does not wake when I get a text.

I have to second this - my screen doesn't light up when I get a message ... BUT I also use the Samsung SMS app and not the Verizon one. I don't even care if the VZW one is better, I refuse to use Big-Red branded apps.
As for the brightness slider, it appears this is now baked into the framework without any option of removing. I'm sure it would be an easy fix if we had root, but you'll have to be patient on that front.
