Hello
When I'm getting a notification of a new message on lockscreen
I press the notification on half of the screen becomes transparent in grey
That's the way it should be?
Thanx Liran
Yes it's to let you know you're going to unlock to the message.

It's so ugly and so not relevant to the notification

You mean secure with a code or with sequence?

Ya. Then that box isn't there. The only other thing to do is switch to an AOSP or CM based ROM but they are a little buggy still. It's only a "feature" on Samsung android

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
OK so I hope I can describe this well enough so that you know what I' talking about. Whenever I get a text message or miss a call and my phone is locked and screen off, and then I come back and wake my phone, it ALWAYS goes to this default screen that shows who the text/missed call is from (and for texts, it will actually show some of the text message). How do I change this, or is there not a way to change it?? Thanks to anyone that can help!

Sure. I don't know about the calls, but the texts I can help. Open up the default messenger. Hit the menu and touch settings. In there you'll see some goodies. One of them will address your text concern.
There are total of 20 buttons. One I think it's really missing is the mobile data toggle. Is it possible to make it show up?
If this is possible, would it be possible to have an app installed to do that and turn off the Samsung built-in one?
Thanks

How can I turn off the Samsung one? That said, there are a few toggles that are SGS4 specific.
Thanks

I don't believe you can. Unfortunately, AT&T made them pretty well remove it (I believe on the T-Mobile 4.3 you can tweak a system file and get it back, but i tried and it doesn't work on I337) and the default ones aren't an option.
After upgrading to 4.4.2 I keep getting missed calls notification on my lock screen. I really want to remove this. Any ideas?

Have you tried clearing the cache?
But i don't think this is a problem. I think it's a new 4.4.2 feature that cannot be disabled. Maybe I didn't describe my problem right. When someone calls me and I don't pick up you can see the missed call in a big notification rectangle in the lock screen. This means that someone can just take your phone and see who called you even if you don't want to. I try to find any setting to disable this but it looks like it's a widget in the lock screen.

If you can't disable it in the settings and the developer didn't include an option for that there is no way to hide it.

I guess you are right but this is crazy not being able to hide this. We should have control over our privacy.

That is one of many reasons why I am not using TouchWiz.
You think if I use another launcher it will not do that?
Edit : just tried another launcher and it still does the same thing.

I think what you have on your lockscreen is a lockcreen widget. Have you tried disabling Lockscreen widgets?
Maybe if it is a standalone widget it can be removed from the screen. Try and report back.

I have the widgets disabled. It's something to do with the system.

No I haven't. I don't think the third party lockscreens are as safe as the original ones.

If you are looking to make the status bar green, you can use a XPosed app called Tinted Status Bar.
It'll let you set the status bar color on a per app basis.
You must be rooted.
