Is it possible to remove the stock messages lockscreen "widget" displayed when you have new messages?
I'm using NILS and don't need the stock one.
My device is rooted.
Thanks

Thanks but that is just to disable the preview on the lockscreen. It's still there as "New messages" butik without content.
Ah, you're right. Have you tried to turn notifications completely off?

But that will remove the entire notfication?
NILS is based on the notifications.
Ah, didn't know that.

I ve installed the CHOMPSMS and wonder how can i disable the factory messaging program (i installed ASTRO). I tried to change the LED Blink colour in ChompSMS but it doesn work, i need to set the light from Factory Messaging.
Please help
p.s. Does anyone know if there is an app that i can add the A-Z alpha onto my contact phone list so that i dun have to scroll around.
You can turn off the notifications on the stock app by going into the apps settings and scrolling to the bottom unchecking the box that says "notifications."
I hope this answers your question, and as far as changing the LED color, you need to be rooted in order to do that.
thank you!
I have rooted but i am unable to adjust the LED colour from ChompSMS, only can do it in factory messaging.
Uncheck the notification only not showing the icon right? does it disable the app permenatly?

I use handsent sms but also have sms popup. I have the notification off on the default and handsent. I use the sms popup because it lets me use trackball for different color for different contacts. Extra work but it works for me.

I quit using Handcent a while back because I wasn't using any of the features. I haven't used it since I got my N1 actually. I used to do a lot of work with the Dev on it. With SMS popup I can't get the trackball to work at all. You're using the LED setting right?
This is how I have the N1 set for trackball notification. 1st I have missed reminder install. I have the red selected for missed sms and blue for calls.I use handset for default sms but have the notification off, also the default messaging notifications off. I then have sms popup. Sms popup is enabled,for the quick yes or now replies, under the contacts notifications have different colors selected for contacts.

You're using the "LED" selections right? I'm trying it and none of them are lighting the trackball.

In what application? Please be more explicit.
I have the same setup as jerrycycle (coincidence) and for example using SMS Popup - Notification | Default Notifications | Enable Notifications (disable notification in the standard messaging app) and then go the the Led Configuration section and set your options. Now, use the Test Notification function to test your LED's.
You need a custom ROM but you should not use any LED mod for this.
The led will work for the chompsms and handcent. The custom option has to me the chosen option and the time has to be set. There is a 3 second delay before the custom colors work. I can't say what to set it on without reconfiguring my phone to test.

no, you have to replace the app, someone released a version that you can disable it, search, it is this forum somewhere.
they released a version of glowfly?
i have tried chompSMS, Glowfly and Handcent SMS... i can not get any custom alerts to work if i disable the default messaging application notification. but if i leave it on i get double notifications...
Does everyone else get previews for unread email on their lockscreen? I get the SMS preview but just the statusbar notification for emails (I'm using the stock email app). Is there some obscure setting for turning this on/off I might have messed with?

Nope... you may need to wait for a firmware update or use another.email app from google play.

Thought I'd figured it out, but no luck. Another option would be to disable the other notification previews (sms and calls) and use DashClock for the notifications instead, but I can't find a way to do this either on the S4 - apparently it's possible on the HTC One...?
I have looked through the settings but there's nothing that disable notifications on the lockscreen.
the thing is I have setup the default SMS app with Dashclock/Dashnotifier but the SMS app ignores all of that and appears on its on separate panel in the lockscreen.
hope you guys can chime in on this

hmm. I tried that option before but it doesn't change anything :/
Unticking Preview Message just means you won't see the contents of the SMS and just "Message" instead
Just been wondering about this? ? bug

I got my S8 today and so far I'm loving it! Is there anyway to turn vibrations off when you get a text or any other type of message? I have turned all vibration settings and sounds off in the settings menu but I still get a vibration on incoming messages. Thanks.

Many apps have their own notification mechanism over which you have no control. All of my local news apps vibrate, and what's worse, there's no setting to disable it. You'll have to check the notification configuration screen of your messaging apps.

Thanks for the reply, I have found that with some apps you can turn off the vibrations and with messages you will have to turn of all notification settings on the app itself to stop the remaining vibrations.
That's correct! It's similar with iPhones as well; some app developers just do their own things.
