[Q] What do the text message notifications look like? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am very curious about something that really isn't a big deal.. I don't have a S4 yet, I have a Galaxy Nexus. When I get a text message I have 3 options in the drop down notification shade. Reply, Read, Call or something like that. I have had ROMs on this phone since I got it so I am not sure what options are suppose to be in the notification shade when you get a text message on Jelly Bean phones. So when you guys get a text, by pulling down the notification shade what are the options you have if any? Thanks!

I personally don't get any options It simply shows the persons name, and the first part of the text (or amount of texts if more than one)
If you tap on it it opens the person - no options like the above.

You may find different SMS apps give more options in the notification bar and they have been incorporated into the roms you have been using

You can't expand it? (Drag it down with 2 fingers)

You can but that just shows more of the message. Doesn't give any options.

GoSMS Pro works nicely. My only complaint is that I don't like the icon much. Certainly doesn't fit nicely with ICS

Marquee scrolling text notifications?

When I first had the note, when I received a text, the message would scroll across the top of the notification area. It was cute and very handy.
I use Google voice for texts, and this has stopped happening, possibly due to ICS, I am on stock.
Is there an app or rom I could install to get that feature back? It was handy..
Thanks

Anyone else's lock screen do this?

So I have preview messages in lock screen and status bar checked on. Why is it that when I click on the message in my lock screen this blank box appears that I can't do anything with? Never had so many questions about a phone considering I get so many a year. I've attached a picture for reference.

It's a built in function. For instance, once you click on the text, you swipe in the box below and your phone goes right to the text.

From what I've been able to tell, the swipe on that lock screen is actually a widget. The box that sometimes appears is the area where the swipe trail can be triggered.
Swipe down on the message notification, then you can click on the text message notification on the lockscreen.

that helps, although I dont see the point in bringing the box up. Not like it really matters where you swipe as it will unlock.

Its no unlocking the phone by swiping the box down. Its "enabling" the lockscreen text messaging widget that google implemented in 4.2, because by default samsung overrode the aosp lockscreen with its swip from anywhere.

So does that mean there's no way to get rid of this box that pops up?

That is correct, there is no way.
I guess it's been awhile since I used my s3 and it's just something I will get used to.
very simple to get rid of that box...... but it requires using a different messaging app that is the only way right now until roms are built

Hi,
You cannot remove them,but you can re-order them.
Push the ones that you do not want/use to the bottom.

Hi, this is a bug in other 4.2.2 versions we can move, delete, add, reorder... but here in our SGS4 this function is missed. If you read even the help text above, Samsung says - "......to reorder or to ADD...", it is supposed to be able to add/remove them

Thank You! I cant believe I had never noticed this before. I always thought it would be a handy feature, I was secretly jealous that my wifes iPhone could do it and my GS2 couldn't. I may have to power up the GS2 just to see if the option was always there.
