Messaging Pop-Up - Not showing up anymore - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i just noticed that with the stock LG messaging application i am not getting the pop-up quick reply. I'm assuming it has something to do with something i froze in titanium backup however instead of going through each one one by one and going through a bunch of test text messages to figure it out i'm turning to the community.
Does anyone know which service allows the pop-up to happen?
Thanks!

I don't always get it, either. Seems to only pop up if I'm on my home screen. Been meaning to ask a few friends to text me back so I can test it out.

That's how it is suppose to work, however that has stopped working for me hence the post

Well I unfroze everything & still not working dyes I have the option set to yes. Only things I've done is flash stock browser and installed an old apk of Google Talk as I didn't like Hangouts.
I think maybe something with the Google Talk install did it. Looks like I'll have to restore to a backup.

Mine stopped working as well. Did everyone here install GMD Auto Hide?

i used TWRP to do a factory wipe and it fixed it. Restored my backup and wasn't there. Yes i installed gmd auto hide.

I think GMD is breaking the pop up. Oh well.. I rather not have those ugly software buttons than have the message pop up.

Messaging app no longer working cm6

ok so I've been using cyanogen 6 stacker final build for a while now, and ever since I started the messaging app gives me problems.
Every time I open it up it does a force close. It used to only force close when I only tried to text one person in particular, but now its every time I try to open it.
I've moved on to handscent for all my messaging needs since as that makes it work no problem but I don't get picture messages and when I get a message, it'll still pop up with the force close message sometimes fir the stock messaging app.
I thought there was a problem with the install so today I just went and did a full data wipe and wiped all cache, then loaded a fresh copy of cm6 stable build. Got the phone back to normal with my settings and apps and the messaging app still force closes. Anyone have any ideas what is going on here. Its getting to be a huge pain and while handscent works and is better, the constant force closes is getting beyond annoying.

did you redownload the rom or use the same one as before
Since this obviously isn't a wide problem my guess would be something on your end.
Completely wipe everything and start fresh..Don't add anything once you get the ROM loaded. Start text messaging and see if it works. If it does then it has to be either a program you're adding or some data you're restoring.
Then start adding your stuff one by one and check the messaging app..Thats what I would do.
Yes I redownloaded the app and a wiped everything. Fresh install also. How do I prevent the market from redownloading all my apps once I open it for the first time?
I'll def try the adding one app at a time thing

Ok so I tried to do this and there are two options. One is backup data and that is now unchecked. The other is restore data. That one is greyed out. So if I try a new restore it just puts all the apps and settings back. How do I get it so I can unchecked restore data?
Also when I do a data wipe in among_RA how long should that take? Seems to be going very quick, like 5 seconds tops. Is this normal? For some reason I feel as if my problem is that something is not wiping when I do the wipe in recovery.
Any thoughts?

Ok go the data restore backup crap disabled. Updated to the lastest amon_RA version 1.8
Went into recovery and wiped everything and reinstalled the stable cm6 rom.
So far so good, but I go to the messaging app and same ****. I get force closes with one specific contact, once that happens it just starts its random force closes no matter what contact.
So what could this be? Is something not wiping correctly? Please anyone have any suggestions or help?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
So again to note, I'm still having the force closes on a fresh install of cm6 no other apps installed from market. Nothing.

I'm the mean time, I went back to fresh rom 3.2 just to stop all the force closes in the messaging app. I really hate sense and its bloated self. There must be a solution.....
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Well I fixed it on my own. Was using fresh rom and stated to get some what similar problems with the one contact as before. So I un linked the contact from facebook, and completely deleted the contact all together. Then I made a new google contact and put in the mobile number and saved it. This time I did not link it to the facebook profile. Low and behold I have cm6 another shot this morning with a fresh wipe and install and all is well and working (so far) with no force closes.

Will NOT Keep Defaults for Home Button

So...my Epic continually asks me to choose my default home program every time I press the home button.
It asks me to either pick HOME or TWLauncher. So I installed DxTop Pro...now I have 3 to pick from everytime!
I tried Home Switcher and Home Manager - neither of them keep the default home screen either.
It doesn't always clear the default. I have tracked it down to when I press and hold the home button down until the task manager comes up. Once those 6 most recent programs pop up...my default home screen is cleared out.
I tried downloading the samsung task manager apk that I found on xda and installing it...didn't solve the problem.
So, I open it up to you all for ideas.
I could hard reset, but I know the moment I finish setting it back up...the new official ROM will come out and I'll have to do it all again!

Uh when you choose your homescreen when it gives you the option of the three, do you make sure the check box at the bottom of the popup is checked off...?

Just checking lol. Which launcher are you trying to run as default and which ROM/Kernel/etc you running?

Sgs tools from the market will fix this.

Edit: this does require root, sorry not for stock issues.
I'm on the stock Epic ROM from Sprint. Never rooted.
I was running the default TouchWiz, but once this began I started using DxTop Pro to see if it would correct the issue...it did not.
I'm still using DxTop Pro because I liked it better.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
Did you ever get a fix? I hve same problem. Since I got my epic. On 11/17 touchwiz crashed rebooted and it started. I run stock and have never even rooted. I have done nothing to this device. I'm on appbrain user ErlyD if you want to see my app list. Also tried home switcher and sgs tools (which by the way the menus last options are .prop editor, I say this cause I was told to select an option at the bottom of sgs that would fix it. An option I don't have.)
Anything would help. Starting to not like this. Its happening to often. No matter what I select home or tw and set to default. It will eventually pop up again. As for task managers I fin my self using only samsungs version to avoid any issues from popping up.

CM10.1 & Notifications

First off I'd like to say I believe this is an extremely isolated issue, but I would appreciate any and all help.
I can't seem to get notifications working for snapchat. I've looked around before since I had the issue in CM10 with my note, but I've found nothing on the subject. I realize not many people here probably use snapshot, but the way it works is that when a snap is received, the screen turns on and a notification pops up in the notification bar. Since I flashed CM10.1 today I receive the snaps but my screen does not turn on and no notification appears.

I've noticed this has gotten quite a few views and I just want to post the solution. For whatever reason, if you use titanium backup to restore the app it will not be able to display notifications.
To fix it just reinstall the all through the play store.

You have to be on the Facebook messenger app and go to setting and activate the messenger app as you regular message, now if you want to have the chat head, either way for a person to send you a message or, in message app hold down a pop up will appear and press on "pop out chat head"

I found that the chat head only appears if i leave my "home screen". my girlfriend sent me a message and nothing happened until I opened the browser or any other app. When i did that the chat head floated on to the edge of the screen. If i leave the app it dissapears!? I have tested with Nova Prime, SSlauncher, Buzz launcher and the stock TouchWiz launcher. The same thing happens.
Very strange.
A quick restart after update and checking it in settings (of the messenger app) might work out.
It doesn't work if you have your status bar hidden or apps that go into full screen.

Here working without a problem, just desinstalled primary and messenger apps, then download from play store and vualá. In case, Paranoid and stock kernel
I saw a screen shot on CNET that had an option for Chat Head Notifications in Notification Settings. I cant seem to find it in my settings pane. What's the current version everyone is using?
Chat Heads wont work
I have tried everything...
Uninstall each app, reinstall.
Uninstall both apps, reinstall.
Restart between each install.

I've had people messaging me all day and I CANNOT GET CHAT HEADS TO WORK!

An account issue
So I've identified it as a Facebook account issue. Chat Heads doesn't on my phone with my account, but when I logged in with a friends account chat heads worked fine.
Such a bummer... when I logged out of their account and logged back into mine the functionality was locked again and chat heads is no where to be found as long as I use my account.
Tried using the re-signed APK versions of Katana, Orca, and Home from Paul at MoDaCo. Got home to work, but chat heads wasnt available...so I uninstalled. Home is...well...meh.
Really wanted chat heads, guess i'll just wait for a fix i guess...

As you can see, no available option for 'Chat Heads'

Got the s5 today, few questions

I like the phone, but the 16gb causes a lot of concern. After downloading my music from Amazon, it's almost gone.
I can't find an option to put music from Amazon on my sd card, is that hte new kit kat "feature"?
Also, the test message preview on my lock screen only says "New Message", ther eused to be an option that gave me a preview of the actual message..is it gone?
On the Note 3, it had a setting where screenshots would enter auto edit mode, came in real handy for me. S5 doesn't seem to have this?
When I disabled my magazine, my home screen transitions isn't continuous ..I know I seen the s5 do this in review videos.
Did you root your phone yet with Towelroot? If so go to play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix and install this to get read/write to your sd card. The other stuff I can't help you with. Sorry.

Not yet. I will this weekend tho. Thanks bud
Before you root you may want to look into fix for SHealth and ISIS Wallet (if you use it). You have to stop SHealth and Health Services in app manager and clear data and cache before you installed Xposed. You may even have to uninstall their updates if I remember as well.
Install xposed and it's service , then update Shealth and it should work fine. Once you get that done install ISIS Root Bypass 3.0 module for xposed and check it in modules and reboot and the Wallet will work fine after that.
These were two things that I use often and really had to get working to be happy with root.

Why put off until tomorrow, what you could do today, and prevent yourself from being screwed by VZW when they push 4.4.3 soon, and Root may not work with it?
In the text messaging app you'll see a setting to display the message on the lockscreen instead of new message.
Plug your phone into the computer and drag and drop the music to the SD or use root explorer to move it there.. You don't need root to do this.
No, the S5 cannot auto enter edit mode as far as I know, maybe clear defaults of gallery and set images to auto open in an editor?
As far as continuous transitions just use apex or Nova.

How did you "disable" My Magazine exactly? I was able to long press home screen, choose Home screen settings, and uncheck My Magazine. This allowed me to scroll continuously or not.

You'll have to edit a file using Root Explorer then if you disable My Magazine you'll have endless home screen scrolling. I use Nova launcher which already has the option in settings. If you definitely have to have the stock launcher and you can't get infinite scrolling to work let me know I'll tell you which file to edit.
