notification bar showing generic message - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Please help me. I have been a long time nexus user and switched to note three since Verizon doesn't get along with Google. In the notification shade I would get the name of the person who the message was from and if two finger swiped I could have info in shade. Right now This phone is only showing "new message" is there something I need to activate. Thanks for your help.

new text message notification

I'd like to disable the notification when you receive a new text message, it would be cool if you can get rid of the little pop up but the little envelope shows up on the top bar.
yes, yes it would

Messages and Missed Calls on the lock screen

Hi All,
I am trying to stop the lock screen notifications. The reason is that I am using NiLS and I want to use only NiLS for now.
The problem is that I cannot stop the missed calls and messages notification that came with the phone and so far I have both NiLS and Android (note 4) notifications on my lock screen.
I tried some options in "Notifications" Section in Messages app but with no luck. I was able to remove the text only but I still receive "New Message" notification on the lock screen.
Any help will be much appreciated.

Whatsapp notification help please

Hi all,
Recently updated to 5.1.1 on my note 4. Before the update my whatsapp notifications used to read out for each person. Like if i had multiple chat notifications in my banners, it would show the person's name along with a line of their message. But now after the 5.1.1 update it just says 4 messages from 4 chats. How do I get it back to so it shows all conversations in my banner alerts rather than just say 4 chats? So i can read some before actually going on whatsapp..
Any help would be appreciated!

Do you mean on lockscreen or notification panel?
If u mean the first try to go to settings/sounds and notifications/ notifications/while locked and choose "show all content" and that may help.
Best wishes

How to display all notifications on lock screen?

I've noticed when receiving multiple notifications it only displays the top two and the rest I need to unlock the phone to view.
Ideally I would like to have all notifications display on the lock screen visible like an iPhone (able to scroll and read them all) without having to unlock the screen.
Same goes for receiving more than one text message. The first one shows the text message and then after the second it shows 2 messages and I have to unlock the phone to read them.
Thanks

Under Settings > Notifications > Lock screen, do you have it set to "Show All Notifications"?
Yes I do.
Like right now,I have emails I can't view until I open the phone
It's just handy if I could view them all briefly
You can expand the notifications, like you do in the pull down notification bar.

Just place ur finger on the notification area and drag down to show all notifications...

Hide message previews??

Is there a way to hide message previews when screen is unlocked? For instance, say you're browsing the web and you receive a message... When you pull down on notification bar, you can read who sent it and what was said, as opposed to "new message" then having to click that to get into your messaging app . I know it sounds kinda redundant, but I got used to it that way on my old s8 and can't figure out how to turn off "preview messages". Maybe port the Samsung messages app over to this phone? Thanks.
You can try to turn off heads up notifications system wide using one of the numerous guides available on the net. Didn't try as I don't want to disable them.
i used method #1 located here..

Hmm. I still want to get the notification and I can disable the pop-up anyway. I'm looking to disable the actual "peek" method. For instance when my Gmail syncs and gives me a notification on my status bar, when I pull down it'll show me who the emails are from, instead of just saying "3 new emails", which is what I'd prefer.
