[Q] Dismissing/Viewing Texts on Start Screen

On of the most frequent things I is turn on my phone, unlock it, view a text and then dismiss the notification. Is there a way to make this process shorter? I want to be able to view my text on the start screen and if i choose to, dismiss it? I still want a lock screen, but i want to be able to view and dismiss my notifications from there as well. I have heard of a few apps where you can see the text on the lock screen, but none do it well or show the text with/on the lock screen. I have cyanogen mod and use lockscreen gestures to go immediately to text, but wish i could just swipe the notification away with on less step. If its not possible, this is a feature i feel would be a great addition to cyanogenmod.

I'd like to know about any solutions as well.
I'm thinking something akin to Lock Screen Info on iPhone, or the new iOS5 lockscreen.
I'm currently using WidgetLocker.

if you're using widget locker you could use Simple SMS widget and put that on your homescreen.
otherwise... maybe try miui?

I really like stock android.
Is there anything that can handle most, if not all notifications?

Not sure if I understand what exactly you want. If you use widget locker, leave the notification bar active so you can pull down and clear all notifications that way.
If you actually want to read the text just get a messaging widget such as colorize widgets or Simple SMS Widget, or Messaging Widgets and throw it on widget locker.

[REQ]Lockscreen Notifications

I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a good app or mod which imitates the Touchwiz lockscreen notifications for text messages and email.
I seem to remember it being a large red envelope on Touchwiz.
Thanks for your help in advance.

First - which Lockscreen do you use/request for?
If you want TW-Lockscreen Notifications, use TouchWiz-Lockscreen
---------------------------------
Use something like WidgetLocker or GoLocker...

i think he means aosp/aokp lockscreen

Notifications In Different Launcher

So, I am currently root Stock on my device. I like Touchwiz, but would prefer the ability to theme with a launcher, such as Nova. As stupid as it sounds, what has kept me from it is the visual notifications TW offeres with Email/TXT/Calls..etc on the icons themselves. What I mean is that, if I were to receive a txt, there would be a "1" in a bubble over my messaging icon. Same with email, missed calls..etc I work in a louder area so I do somewhat rely on it.
When I enable Nova, this does not happen. Anyone know a fix or if there is a setting in Nova?
Thanks Again!

Perfect! Thank You!

Is there a reason the stock messaging app's themes are SO spaced out?

I feel like a much less spaced out messaging theme would be a better use of screen real estate....
Does anyone have any ideas how to just install or modify the "messaging" themes?
Thanks so much!

I didn't like this either - no idea why they did it this way. Even with system font set to minimum the whole messaging app in general looks huge. I just switched to Chomp SMS. Don't get the badges on stock launcher but that doesn't bother me much.

[Q] Remove dock bar / indicator

I like simple and clean homescreens myself and the dock bar with the indicator kind of annoys me on stock launcher. Is there any way to remove/hide it?
You can customize so many things with xposed tweaks, I can't believe I can't get rid of the dock.
I don't really want to use a different launcher, I have Nova, but the stock one seems more fluid to me, plus I like the knock knock feature (I know I could use it on the status bar, but meh).

i agree i was thinking the same thang ....hopefully xposed will add this feature. I also really like stock launcher i just want the dock to be gone...
