Hi,
I have a Galaxy S4 from AT&T that just updated to Android Lollipop last night. I've been trying out SlideLock, but I wanted to try out Lollipop's new lockscreen and liked it - except for the group message notifications. For regular SMS messages, I can see the sender name and a preview of the message. However, for group messages, that come in as MMS, I just get the notification "a new message has arrived." I don't know why this is happening, and I made sure that the option for enabling a preview of the message was enabled in settings. I have a passcode on the lockscreen, but I can still see previews for SMS, just not MMS. Thanks in advance!

Hi Guys
Does anyone know if it's possible to have a notification on the lock screen for a new whatsapp message received? Just like for a new sms or e-mail, but for whatsapp.
This would be amazing. I mean, lockwidgets is awesome (except for the fact that it stops working after a while by itself), but I would love a little whatsapp icon with a number next to it indicating the number of messages on the lock screen.
Thanks!
This functionality is supposed to come with WP8, so all we can do is hope it gets backported to WP7.8.
I just upgraded my Nexus 7 3G (2012) to 4.4. It used to be on 4.3 that, despite not coming with a proper SMS client, I could install one third-party and send/receive.
Here is what happens now. I can install 8sms and it will tell me it is not my SMS app. However when I tap "SMS Disabled" in Settings, nothing happens. There does not appear to be an SMS system setting on this stock ROM. So I can't seem to get it out of "Sending disabled" mode.
When I text from my phone to my tablet, I get a messaging notification in my tray from Android itself, but tapping it opens up just a toast notification. The message does not actually seem to get recorded anywhere. In 8sms it just appears as (No subject).
Any thoughts on whether this may be surmountable?
I can't answer you but I have a question: where can I find incoming messages? I'm on prepaid and there are incoming messages from the carrier but I can't read them.

They come into the notification tray for me when they arrive, but after reading them they are not stored anywhere. The information just vanishes.
Hello all,
I have just upgraded my note 3 to lollipop and have an issue with sms pop ups on lock screen.
I get a pop up but it says New Message rather then who it is from and then has Message hidden.
When I go to Message settings I have preview message ticked.
Just wondering how I can get name of who message is from to display and then have a preview also?
Thanks
Use others sms apps
Hope someone can help me. I've recently moved on android from iPhone and use whatsapp alot and whenever I get a message, either in lockscreen or status bar, it only shows 1 message received from 1 chat, on iPhone I could see the name of person and the message they sent. Is it possible on do this on Android and how please.
Not sure it's what you ask for but I use the whatsapp widget. You see all messages from all users without sending a read receipt.
In notification I can pull down to see the messages.
