Whenever i get a text my screen turns on. How do i make it so it just vibrates or makes a noise. The only way for me to disable the screen is if i turn off all notifications which is not what i want. Is there any solution to this. I am rootex

no? i disabled the lock screen so the back light stays on for the full 30 seconds :[
Bump, cuz I was going to ask the same question.
I was thinking of having tasker do this. But if theres some instructions somewheres I'd rather not have to fiddle w/ tasker. Brains not up for it, yet.
I'd like to know the answer to this as well. My screen lights up whenever I get an email via the stock email app. Kind of annoying since I get cron job report work emails @ all hours of the night.
Oh, & I have searched... "stock email screen light" returns ~1K hits. I sifted through 7 pages of results before deciding to add to this thread.
Anyone know if a mod exists yet to give the same functionality thst the gs4 active has? Screen off long hold volume up enables flashlight. Thanks

I don't know about the Active, but on the regular S4 the LED light from the "hold volume up button" is noticeably dimmer than when you activate it with apps. I'm using the Notification Toggle app from the Play Store to put the LED toggle in the notification panel. It's nearly as convenient as using the volume button and it's brighter without any risk of accidental activation in your pocket.

Yea it does have that option, just not the volume up with the screen off. You have to hold the brightness slider icon in the notification panel to activate it.
Not to be a bother, but I notice it works on some peoples phones and not others. Is there a special thing that needs to be done to get the vol-up for torch working? I know how to get to the secret settings, and they're set for me. It doesn't light up for me . Any advice?

I'm running stock rooted with Xposed and Nottach Xposed

NottachXposed has both of those options. The volume up function is in the Lockscreen settings. You actually don't need Nottach to access it. It's just a convenient shortcut.

I think you need a deodexed ROM. Didn't work for me until I flashed the Mint Jelly ROM (which I recommend :good.

Alright, i'll give that a try. Not opposed to flashing roms, especially if they remove all this Samsung + ATT bloatware Thanks for your help.
Just an update.
I'm not sure if it was having a deodex rom, or just simply being on Android 4.2.2 (Might be the case). But my light is working now with screen off!
EDIT:
One more thing. Enabling this setting will create a wakelock that'll keep your phone at the lowest mhz you set it to instead of letting it go into deep sleep. It's a nice setting, but at the battery cost... it's something that isn't good enough for me yet. I have a profile setup in tasker for TelsaLED on with a shake on the locked homescreen to try my best and mimic this functionality (I was looking for something that starts up at boot, and flips the LED on from lockscreen). I know there's another flashlight that does this as well, but I ran into the problem of it not booting on startup, where as I use Tasker for other functionality so it starts up 100% of the time. It's not 100% since the LED takes a little to flip on... but it's better than having to unlock.
JUST an FYI to save people the feeling of underwhelming when it starts sapping your battery mercilessly!

thats absolutly not true, i use the feature on nottachs xposed app and my phone goes into DEEP SLEEP using ktz kernel,and there is another mod that u can use called 3 minit but you need framework but that has torch when the lock screen is on by pressing the home button,but i found i would have the light on by accident ,idk how but it would jsut be on with that mod.
3 minit work pretty well you can set it to long press home
Try flashlight led genius from playstore , no root need , you shake it when your on the lockscreen,awesome app

I'm going to stick with what I think then. After I flip on the light.. it never goes back into deep sleep. Try it yourself. I'll take a look at 3 minit
FYI the wakelock it made was PhoneWindowManager.mTorchlightWakeLock
This is a feature in CM10.1. You can add it under lock screen options for long press home button. Absolutely love it.

I think your Android version needs to be 4.2.2 to do the torchlight thing through Nova. I could be wrong though.
Ok another update on this.
Since djmouse wasnt getting any sort of wakelock, I decided to try again getting it working. I enabled it through xposed instead of the nova shortcut.... and for some reason it's letting me go to deep sleep now! ... I also flashed crossbreeder... so that might be the savior. Not sure, but happy to report the wakelock seems to be lifted. I'll report back after a few days if it stays that way.
THanks djmouse for challenging me to try it again!
Using an app called Torchie, just press both 'volume buttons' together to turn on/off torch anytime. It runs as a background service and just works anytime, even when screen off (if enabled from Torchie Settings). It kinda make your phone feel like a conventional battery operated torch. No root required.

XDA Thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-torchie-torch-volume-buttons-anytime-t3270230
First off, let me say that I am overall happy with how rooted 5.0 has been running. The battery life seems fine (at least better than the mess that 4.4.4 was for me), and the phone seems to be running smoother on the whole, though that may or may not just be placebo.
The one reason I was weary of updating was the loss of Xposed functionality. While this has mostly only led to a few minor annoyances (such as the inability to hide specific notifications and toasts), the most annoying loss I've noticed thus far has been the ability to disable the home button screen wake. Now, my phone once again is constantly woken up in my pocket. To avoid music skips and accidental calls, I have had to disable the phone shortcuts and lockscreen notifications. Ideally, I could just disable the screen waking action of the button and avoid a lockscreen altogether, but for now it mostly just adds a lot of unnecessary swiping to my day.
I wouldn't say I regret the upgrade, because the PROs seem to outweigh the CONs. What has your experience been?
I miss App Settings. Being able to set individual DPI for apps was amazing, since I like to use a 380 DPI, and that breaks the camera pretty hard and makes the phone app look pretty wonky.
Amplify was also amazing for my battery, as of right now, my phone battery is being eaten up by some android system process constantly holding a connection to something. I've already disabled a bunch of stuff, but I can't find this rogue app. Wakelock Detector is also not working, not sure if anyone else has this option.
Wanam Xposed was a huge help for fixing a lot of inconveniences with this phone, such as dialog boxes for everything like Airplane Mode and Data. Also, losing a Data notification toggle hurt, and I still wonder why it isn't default.
There is a way to disable home button wake through editing a system file with a root explorer. Google it, if you can't find it I will find the exact file and walk you through it.
Same thing with adding back the data toggle.

The three big ones I've always used - GravityBox, Youtube Ad Free and Amplify.
Battery life isnt terrible on Lollipop, I float around 2.4-2.8%/hr with minimal use but yesterday being out and about I was at 4.5%/hr, amplify helps with that because that stupid ass NlpWakeLock is constantly waking the phone up. Sure I can disable location services but why should I have to lose functions to save battery?!??

So now that we have root (happy day!!!!!!!), I've been playing around with CSC modifications and wanted to share two I've done so far. PLEASE find more, this is JUST a start!
So for those unfamiliar with CSC, you can do it manually as they started getting people involved with on this thread, or semi-automatically with apps like Samsung CSC Master and CSC Feature Expert. I personally used the latter, CSC Feature Expert, because it looked cleaner and could search quicker, but take your pick I guess....
Here's what I've come up with so far! The italicized part is what was CHANGED, what it was changed TO, more specifically (hope this clarifies things)
Remove NFC enabled icon in the notification bar - NFC_StatusBarIconType = None
Remote Persistent WiFi notification in pull down menu - Wifi_ConfigWifiNotificationStyle - deleted Att, did not replace with anything
I'm sure there's plenty more, but this is a great start so let's see what you all come up with! I'm dying to change SystemUI / Framework / etc to get all my vanilla Android icons back on the notification bar, just like how I did it on my S5, but that's proving harder than expected for everyone involved.... Gotta get the AOSP Bluetooth icon, removing AM/PM from clock, and having a standard circle battery icon instead of the percentage AND stupid battery icon! Has anyone figured out how to get rid of the Carrier ID in the notification bar and pull down menus? Should be a CSC change that I haven't seen yet, so thanks in advance if you find it.
Awesome work so far buddy! Any idea on how we could remove the Bluetooth or Alarm icons? Or even battery / signal indicator. I prefer having a clean status bar!

That's wiping it clean for sure! I don't know about those, usually zeroing out icons is more framework than CSC, it was dumb luck that the NFC icon was in CSC really. I'm hoping there's some ATT crap code that can be changed to revert the Bluetooth icon back to AOSP looking, but I doubt it's there.... I'm thinking that the persistent wireless charging notification might be though!

From what everyone has said on the PingPongRoot thread, you can use Smart Switch to restore if something screws up, but I believe it would be hard (read: not impossible) to break something bad enough to need to restore anything by editing CSC values - I'm not even sure if "none" or deleting the value all together was the right thing to do in the first post, but it worked and didn't cause anything like a SystemUI failure / reboot / etc.
Of course, YMMV, so tread carefully, I'm still digging but having changed anything else in CSC values yet

One way would be to edit your build.prop.
Be very careful because messing with build.prop can cause a bootloop, not sure if it would be recoverable right now.
What you could do would be change this line:
ro.product.name=zerolteuc
to
ro.product.name=zeroltevzw
or
ro.product. name=zerolte
Then reboot.
Note, this will change your signal icons and if you use zerolte, it will add S Finder and Quick Connect to the drop down.
I'm running zerolte because I like the global icons and don't mind the two new items on the pull down.
I think once xposed is updated, there is an option there. I don't think it is on CSC.

Has anyone tried using Smart Switch to restore?!? I did some searching on it but the only thing it does is a factory reset (which doesn't clear root permissions) if I understand correctly.
EDIT: I checked out what the newest (?) version of Smart Switch can do and while I do think that it's possible for it to restore ATT S6/edge phones, it's currently not a possibility. For me it says SM-G925A does not support initializing.
I've researched that error and seems that the regular ATT S6 also gets the same type of error. So until a firmware dump appears or Smart Switch gets updated with ATT s6/edge compatibility, you cannot restore to stock if something messes up.

Yeah, this is why we really need Xposed.... changing that line means we change a lot of things all at once instead of just what we need to change
Like you said, ro.product.name=zerolte removes the AT&T carrier name from displaying, but adds S Finder (does nothing for me) and Quick Connect, PLUS stock data icons which I really hate for some reason - don't know which one I hate more though, the carrier name always showing up on the notification bar or the stock data icon? haha
if you change it to ro.product.name=zeroltevzw, you get rid of S Finder and Quick Connect, but add Verizon data icons, which again is arguably worse
This was highlighted here: http://zidroid.com/galaxy-s6-s6-edge-how-to-remove-s-finder-and-quick-connect-buttons/
Xposed will allow me to change everything how I like it - ATT carrier name removed, AOSP Bluetooth icons, circle battery, no AM/PM, ATT data icon, and remove S Finder, Quick Connect, as well as the Brightness Bar :good:

zeroflteuc is just the regular S6. The Edge doesn't have the 'f'.

There used to be a modified version of the stock Messages app kicking around that was modded to not turn on the screen when a new SMS or MMS arrived. Anyone still have a copy?
There is a thread in this subforum where the app was modded to include the toggle option for whether or not the screen turns on, but it doesn't work and the OP seems to have abandoned the thread.
I don't care whether it's a toggle option or not, I just want to stop the screen from turning on when I receive a text.
