[Q] Replying from Notification Bar Using Stock SMS App - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

is there any way to enable the option to reply from the notification bar like AOSP/CM using the stock messaging app? Im guessing no, but any advice would be nice.

+1...Would be nice to be able to mark as read also for the text and emails! I'm a droid noob so I'm lost!

I like the stock Samsung SMS app also.
This was where I screwed things up on my phone and I had to re-install the stock ROM because Titanium wouldn't let me restore.
I removed the AT&T Messages app thinking that doing so would make the default stock Samsung SMS app appear in the notification bar.
Man was I wrong. After removing the AT&T Messages app my contacts went all wonky.
It turns out that deleting the AT&T Messages app also removes a system app called Contacts Storage 4.2.2.
I tried to restore these apps using Titanium but it would fail to restore each time.
Maybe a dev will have a workaround for this.

^ good to know.
Well im using sliding messaging now and it does offer the reply from notification bar feature. Its a little buggy, but reliable enough for daily use.

[Q] help with text messaging notifications

i installed the latest apex rom the other day. ever since then, i'm getting double notifications for text messages. i uninstalled any of the extra messaging apps other than the main one, and its still happening. any ideas???
I had the same problem.. did you do a clean wipe? Titanium backuped my apps and wiped the phone.. Then restored one by one (didn't have too many apps luckily lol).. That solved my issue

you gotta have some sort of messaging app or something like sms popup also installed
make sure that the notifications are turned off in the stock app this is why you get two notifications

Dual SMS Notifications

I am having a right mare! I use Handcent, however I keep getting dual notifications. One from Handcent and one from the stock SMS App. I have turned off Notifications from within the stock App and still they come through.
I have even gone so far as removing the MMS/SMS App with root explorer and still they persist. It is frankly driving me mental. I want to keep ONLY the Handcent one.
Can anyone suggest anywhere to look? I am rooted with Pauls R10 Modaco ROM!
You forgot to disable notifications from the stock app settings which I believe are connected to but not accessible from the stock settings.

Same issue I had. I went into the stock messaging app, under menu, settings, notifications, unchecked the box. That worked for me.

As per the original title I have gone into the Stock App and settings menu from there and disabled them and they still pop up.
You actually did not mention that and frankly I'm inclined to believe that it is still the issue as there would be no other reason I can think of why they would be coming up.

On second thoughts I wonder if this is coming from Elsewhere
If I enable notifications in the stock App I get The smiley face symbol with sender name and message, Handcent notification AND a 3rd one which seems to be the problem one. This simply sats You have New Message(s) You have an unread message. Also when the SMS is read this does not go away either
So where the hell is that one coming from LOL?

I wasnt trying to be picky there! Please dont get me wrong! I meant first post which I did state about trying what you suggested from my first post a quote: I have turned off Notifications from within the stock App and still they come through.

You mean when you enable notifications you get a 3rd popup that is the smiley face in a chat bubble? What happens when you open the unknown notification? What app opens? And if its the stock messaging app, try clearing its defaults.
That is correct about the smiley face chat bubble. When the notification pops up it will open up Handcent. I have tried clearing the defaults as well with no joy.
i had this problem when i was using Handcent
so i removed it
now i'm using GO SMS, same as handcent but better, and it does not have the problem that handcent was having
i only get 1 sms/mms alert instead of 2 when handcent is installed

OK I will give that one a bash then see if it solves it.
No joy, GoSMS just crashes on me. I still get the message even after uninstalling Handcent as well with the stock App

which ROM are you using?
maybe try another ROM?
Using Modaco r10. Might try another or a fresh install.

Messaging annoyance

Ok, I tried looking online and even deleting the stock messaging app.
My problem is that everytime I receive a text message I receive the little envelope notification in the task bar. Even when I check my texts through this notification, it stays there until I actually press clear on all the notifications. This might be stupid to some, but it absolutely annoys me.
Someone please help.

What msg service r u using. If its 3rd party then u have to ho into stock app and tell iT in settings not to get notifications
I was just using stock and yes I unchecked everything in those settings, and unfortunately I kept receiving them.
Now I've deleted the stock messaging app, and now using the handcent third party app, but I'm still receiving the stock notification and a handcent one.... Is this a bug?
I'm rooted on stock rom.

You problem is deleting the stock messaging app. It still delivers the text through OS, even though the actual app is no longer present. You should have kept it and told it to ignore.
You have to go into your stock messaging app, tap menu, then go to settings. Once in there you need to find "auto-retrieve" and unchecked the box. Then find "notifications" and unchecked that box as well

Becasue all yea raeally need to do with stock is clear the show notifications box.
I finally gave up on third party mms apps and just run stock now. It's fine. I don't need balloons.

Can't see pics with chompSMS?

Does anyone know how to fix this? I have to switch to stock messenger to see the pic and then when I go back to chomp it will then show.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 2
Try handcent SMS. I've had problems with chomp in the past and always came back to handcent. The devs are really good about fixing any issues.

Try Textra...it's made by the same people, and it's fast, fluid, and completely replaced my stock messaging app (I can freeze the stock app with no issues). I've had no issues with MMS in it, like I have with most other 3rd party SMS apps.
+1 for textra I use it as my daily SMS app. I was having problems with other 3rd party SMS apps I would take a picture but it would only send sideways it was stupid with textra it doesn't do that and its light so it makes it fast.

+1 textra
OK, so I'm trying out textra and have made it my default SMS. I'm not receiving notifications or the pop up. I'm getting them in the stock messaging though. Am I doing something wrong? Help is appreciated. Thanks.

It's a common problem w chomp i fixed it like so...begin by whining your application cache for chomp and stock messenger. ..
Go to your mobile settings and copy the mms settings or whatever...then input those to the chomp app...i also had to enable in the stock messenger "auto retrieve mms"....then in chomp disable that feature that says something like b preserve resolution"... Once all is done reboot and have someone send you a pic. It should work. Give it a few hours i knew mine wouldn't work right away but now it's golden.
No Textra Notification
This happened to me as well. I found that if I have any additional third party SMS apps besides Textra installed, then Textra will not notify me of a new message. Also check your stock messaging app and make sure notifications are turned off there as well.

I.tried all the suggestions and in the end nothing worked so I jumped ship to Sliding Messenger, which does fine with pics.

Lucky you, I've never gotten Sliding Messaging to fully work with MMS, no matter what combination of settings I've tried. It's the reason I jumped ship to Textra (although to be honest I've been using Hangouts for my SMS lately...the only features I'm really missing are the pop-up replies and dark theme).

It disgust me that there are messaging apps that don't support popup on Android these days especially hangouts

[Q] No notifications with Sliding Messaging?

New to Sliding Messaging and like the UI but I'm not getting any notifications of SMS messages and worthless without it.
This was the only SMS other than stock that I had installed. After installation on my unrooted N3, I don't receive notifications at all... no led, vibrate or ringtone. Test notification in the settings of the app worked, but not when messages arrived.
I tried a number of settings within the app such as over-ride the stock app and still no go. In fact the stock SMS notifications stop working even after uninstalling SM. Notifications worked again after I installed handscent but I really just want SM working by itself.
A number of reviews mention similar problems but the developer who replys quickly just keeps blaming it on other SMS apps even after I told him there weren't any other ones installed prior to SM.
Anyone else using SM on the Note 3 having this problem or know of a fix?
Go to settings then security then notification access abs give it access. Not sure if that will work but worth a try.

Settings> App Manager >scroll right to "all" > Pick messages.
is it on? check show notifications
if you don't see it in "all" then its probably off and is in the "Turned OFF" section

This did it. Thanks for the help. Is this new to JB 4.3? I've never seen/needed this setting on my SGIII before.
