No pop up messages - HD2 General

during my one month hd2 usage i havent found any annoying issues with it, however there is one issue that i would like to have - when sms/reminder is arriving it would be great to have it on screen straight away like in other phones - is it possible somehow?

Ah yes, +1, that small icon at the top is not enough :S

settings - menu - all settings - sounds and notifications - notifications tab - scroll down events to 'message:new message' - tick display message on screen

maybe i am old fashioned, but on my old iphone, se w910i each message that comes in popup as preview on the home screen - this is the problem

Give it a try, send yourself a message, then jump to the home page. Its not a problem at all, and doesn't look out of place against the manila skin.
*update* oh right, i just re-read what the OP wants and this is slightly different, this just shows the message, it doesn't access it (so you can't reply directly)

??? compose SMS from today screen-plugin????

Okay-- maybe I'm just imagining this-- but it seems like I've had it on a phone before--
Is there a plugin for the today screen that allows you type and send the message right from there? Not linking you to the phones messaging program-- but with an input box and everything right there on the today screen?
Like I said-- I think I've had this on a phone-- but I don't know anymore for sure-- or what it would have been-- I appreciate the help--
Thanks--
I think this is quite neat.
Maybe it starts up as a small bar on today screen that says "Messaging" just like the regular messaging today plugin, but expands when you tap it to show bigger input boxes... how come I haven't seen anything like this?

How to make newly unread sms to the top

Sorry for the skewed title.
I have this minor problem. Whenever there is a new sms and when I open the the sms( let's say from the lockscreen which provide the shortcut option to view the unread sms using manilla), it doesn't direct me to the unread sms.
Most of the time it will direct me to the 2nd sms or maybe 3rd sms.
the qn is ; am I the only one having this problem?And how do I solve it?
Yeah it's showing the last message you looked at...very annoying
Haha, so i'm not the only one...it's irritating as hell.
All the previous HTc phones knows how to go to the newest, now sure why in HD2, this is NOT done.
Also, all my previous HTC phones, on the main page, you can actually dismiss,mark as read or delete the message without opening it...but in the HD2..all you can do is HIDE.....super troublesome this HTC messages.and you can't disable it! I hope HTC updates it..this is the biggest pain in the HD2..
yeah... so much for productivity

from the lock screen... tap the slide bar, drag the new bar off the screen and you arrive at your new message.

I tried your suggestion but it doesnt seem to be working. I drag the sms bar as far over as I can after tapping the slider and I still arrive at the last viewed message not the new one.....any more help?
Also is there not a cab file to make the sms slider go directly to all messages where the new sms can just be replied. Instead of having to go to the navigation tab and then clicking the sms and then replying. It seems there must be a fix for both of these problems.

Help me reduce the button presses to check messages

currently when i get an sms i have to:
-press a hard key
-unlock the slider
-press the message tab
-then when i get to messages it isn't set to the latest message it is set to the last message checkeds
-then i have to scroll to message 1
coming from android that is a lot of button presses. in android you could actually read the first couple of lines from the lockscreen. is there a way for me to reduce the button presses?
Install S2U2.
S2U2 will be able to display the message on the screen (while the phone remains locked).
Do you have win6.5 lock enabled? when you get a message it should have a message slider and if you slide that it will automatically take you to the sms tab (or email tab if you got an email or missed call tab if you got a missed call or.....)
Set titanium as home screen then after unlock hit text.
Or you could:
-press a hard key
-tap the slider
-unlock the new slider which pops up
should take you directly to your new message.

this takes me to the messages tab, but it does not take me to the latest message. it takes me to the last message i checked when i was in that tab so i still have to scroll once.
i will check out that s2u2 and report back.
ok so i downloaded s2u2 and love the functionality of it. i hate the fact that it looks like iphone though i wish it were more original looking. or even the same but a different colorway, especially in the message bubble that pops up. but hey, it was free and works great so thanks for suggesting it.
much better than the stock lock screen for sure!

There is a disturbing amount of themes for S2U2, if you don't like the stock one (which does mimic the iphone alot) you should look at the other ones.

How do I enable this, I've seen the message slider in other peoples screenies, but I'm not sure how to enable it.
Many thanks
install the hd mini unlock screen, shows most of the message when you wake up the phone with out having to slide to unlock

You just click the slider instead of sliding it. It obviously only works if there's something to show you.

Yeah but at the moment, message or missed call, these icons on the lock screen don't show.
bump, thanks for any pointers

So I understand, after a missed call, email sms etc. do you see a number on the unlock slider? If so, and you tap the unlock slider, you should see one or more notification sliders pop down. Are those not appearing? If that's the case, have you ever installed anything intended to modify the lockscreen in any way?

Yes I have (See screenie), but even before this change I've not had the other icons come up. I've always wondered how I could get them to show up since having the phone.
I'm on Orange network (UK) and on official 1.66 rom.
Thanks for your help.
LOL, it has a little number "1" on your slider, lol
just tap that a$$

Still nothing, that screenie was taken after tapping
It's not important, it would just be nice.
well it is displaying right. normally you would just touch the slider instead of sliding it and a secondary slider would appear, but if that is not happening for you i don't know where in the settings to enable/disable it.

I can't imagine why it's not working. I've attached a cab with the original lockscreen files. You may try installing it and see if that works. Outside of that, you may have a reg setting inadvertantly changed somewhere.
@methodz: Are you still using S2U2? If not, or you go back to the oem LS, I think we can take your original question one step further (literally). Not sure if you've seen this, but you can change the commmand of the notification slider to go directly to your email inbox instead of the manila tab, or have the sllider actually call your voicemail directly instead of taking you to the dialpad. I dunno about sms as I haven't tried it, but either way it may worth looking at the bottom of this post here by Da_G: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4268138&postcount=3. It will require a tad of registry editing, but for me it's worth it. Less steps to get to things.

Issue with new SMS/Text Notification - Postcard icon

Hi,
I am hoping that you could help me with these.
The first is a minor issue while the second is really starting to annoy me.
When I get a new SMS/text message, the normal yellow envelope appears in the notification bar. I drag down the notification bar and read the text message. However, if I just press the menu key to exit the messaging application, the yellow envelope stays there. However, if I exit out using the back key, the yellow envelope disappears.
As of about 10 mins ago, when I get a SMS, I now get the yellow envelope and a second white envelope about 2 seconds later. The white envelope will only disappear when I press the Clear button in the Notifications bar.
I cannot figure out how to get rid of the second white notification envelope.
Edit: I have since realised that it is in fact a postcard icon.
I've noticed this feature too...it doesn't seem to clear the notification unless you drill right into the text message...ie click on the speech bubble.only then will it register as being read.bit annoying but can cope with it.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Did you instal any 3rd party messaging clients? I have never seen the white envelope before
think the white envelope is an e-mail

I can defo put up with this alright. By the way, you don't have to drill right down into the message. Just pressing the back button to exit out of the message is sufficient to clear down the yellow notification envelope
It is the second, the white notification icon, that is driving me mad. I can only get this to clear when I press the Clear button.
I just looked at it closer. The icon is actually a postcard.

I assumed too but it triggering everytime I get text message.
I figured out that it was "Beautiful Widgets: Pack 2" that was causing the problem.
thank you so much, because this was driving me crazy... i had reset my phone like 5 time because of this

Text Notification Failure

Alright, hopefully someone can help. I have ran this question elsewhere, with no luck. I am running a WVGA HTC Imagio with WM6.5 and a NRG custom rom with sense 2.5. I just recently installed and then removed the newest HTC Messaging Client. Couldn't send or recieve MMS messages. Thats all fixed now, but, whenever I get a text or MMS message, the notification bubble shows in my top bar, but nowhere else, not even my unread notification on Sense. It does show up in the standard lock screen (HTC's) however.
No, it doesn't show up in Titanium either, just shows 'no new texts'.
It also doesn't show up when I use ThrottleLauncher, iPhoneToday, Infinity, Androkkid, or Home2.
So, it shows up in the lock screen and on the top bar, but no where else. Any ideas?
also, why is my tag or whatever showing that 'OP' thing?
Alright, got a little more information. I checked HKCU/System/State/Mesages/SMS/Unread and the 'count' register. When I send a test text, it doesn't change, it stays at 0. BUT when I change it manually to '1', then it registers in all my systems (TL, iPT, Sense 2.5, etc).
But when I remove the '1', its back to where no notifications other than in the top bar and lock screen are given. I do get the usual message notifications via sound and vibrate as well.
So, does anyone have any idea on why it works for the lock screen and top bar, but not in sense or any other UI?
Hi Jerry,
I hope someone can answer this as I have exactly the same problem.
The "OP" means "opening poster"!
Thanks, and no luck yet. I hope someone can figure this out, becouse I am stumped!
And don't know what "Opening Poster" means, but guess its good!
If you happen to get yours fixed, remember to swing by this way!
