Galaxy S5 :: How To Get A Screen Lock Notification Preview
Mar 6, 2015
When I receive a text I can see a quick preview of the message like I should but when I click on the notification from the lock screen a faded grey square pops up below. Should there be something in that square? Is there more of a preview?
I have a Htc one m8, I had too have a replacement phone sent to me my question is my missed calls and text messages preview does not show up on the lock the screen like my original one did I have all the settings checked the way they should be but still will not preview, what I may be missing or something else i need to do....
HTC ONE. With the Stock Messaging app on the phone, I like it and all but I have a small gripe about it. I don't get message previews on the lock screen when I get a message. Yes I know, maybe it's disabled to save on battery life, but battery life is not an issue for me on this phone. Anyways, the only way I can get a message preview on lock screen is if I use CHOMP SMS messaging app. I dont like it, I prefer the stock one, but I leave it on so that I can get previews on my lock screen. Any way to maybe Enable the feature so that I can see a preview of my text on the lock screen?
I really like the Accuweather app. However, I find that even though i definitely want the notification at the top bar of the screen (ongoing notification), i do not want the entire bar that goes across the Lock Screen as it blocks my Lock Screen wallpaper, which I want to see. How to have the ongoing notification but not the Lock Screen notification bar across the Lock Screen wallpaper?
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 and for some reason the lock screen notifications disappeared after I recently updated my OS. The left portion of the image is the unlocked state; as you can see the notifications show up in the upper left corner of the screen. The right portion is the locked screen, which hides the notifications previously shown. The notifications used to show in both of the screens but after a recent OS update they stopped showing.
It's really annoying how my phone somehow can't view the notification panel where to turn off WiFi and Bluetooth on the lock screen. The Galaxy s4 and the Galaxy s6 and some other Galaxy s5 has it but why doesn't my phone have it? Because I have sprint? I can't scroll down from the top of the lock screen, nothing happens.

How I can't scroll down on the lock screen to see notification panel?
When I get a new text or email if I unlock my phone and touch the email or message app and read or delete it, it still shows the notification in the upper left. If I then lock my phone and unlock it again it still shows the notification on the lock screen. I have gone and cleared the cache and data from the message app and restarted. The only way it goes away is if I swipe it away on the lock screen or select it from the lock screen and view/delete after it opens.
So its nice that you can click on a notification on the lock screen then swipe and it'll open directly into that app.
The problem i'm having is when i do this sometimes it just locks the phone. Screen turns off, and nothing happens. I will then press the home button and it unlocks and goes straight into the app as if i had unlocked it the first time.
I'm running as stock as you can get on the S6. Not even a theme. I can't seem to recreate the issue at will, but it does happen often but randomly.
Why doesnt my s5 turn off when I get a notification or when I check the time On lock screen. This been happening for the past days. I had about 55% of battery and when I got off work it was dead. I then later charged my phone and noticed that when I get a notification on the lock screen it won't turn off right after the notification showed. when I turn on the phone to check the time on the lock screen it doesn't turn off. it would usually turn off seconds later. This has been draining my battery. if I have a full battery at night and disconnect it and throughout the night I get a text message the lock screen would turn on and never turn off,and then in the morning I'm left with a dead phone or a 3% left, or when I disconnect the phone it doesn't turn of neither. How do I set it back to how it was. I already factory reset?
I've recently upgraded my Galaxy S5 and am having trouble with the lock screen.All i want is the message/whatapp and other ICONS to appear on the top left hand corner of the lock screen where it now says my carrier...All i want is the little icons nothing else.
Is it possible to remove the preview of the email notification on the home screen?I mean to leave only the message "you have an email" headers without the last three emails.
This has happened more than once. I need to power phone off to fix it. Running Lollipop.Watch a YouTube Video, finish it, close YouTube, even end task and verify it isn't running. When phone locks the preview image is visible for the video on the lock screen.
I updated my phone to lollipop 5.0, it is in general good till now, but i have two problems:
1) no notifications are displayed on my lock screen even for missed calls or sms's .. there is no any icon or symbol that informs me if i have missed any call or received a message ; and i have to unlock my phone every time to check
in the Settings -> Sounds and Notifications -> i selected the option to show all the notifications.. but nothing changed
2) also on the lock screen , not widget for the walkman or the sound cloud to enable me to pause the players or to navigate to the next song
How to clear the system update notifications for Lollipop on both the lock screen and in the notification area at the top left of the screen. I'm not really wanting to update just yet.
I don't want my texts to show the content on any screen. It seems the only way to stop this is by turning off notifications. Is there a way to change it to just say New Message?
Been with nokia (symbian) for years and years. just made the switch to android and having a few issues. Galaxy s6 edge.
my old nokia n8, I could choose to receive notification that only showed the contacts name and let me know I had a message from them. Is this possible on the s6? I do not want the message preview on my screen so that everyone can see the message. I just want the contacts name only.
A friend of mine has a Galexy S5 and uses BBM and now for some reason she is getting BBM Instant Previews at the top of her screen and she wants it turned off!
Just downloaded lollipop on ATT. The smart screen notification keeps coming on the lock screen. I went to apps, found smart screen and tried to deselect the notification but its greyed out. How to hide this notification from popping up on lock screen?
Not sure if this is possible, but I'd like to allow notifications to only appear in the notification bar of the lock screen and not show in the middle of the lock screen. Also, I'd like to enable the phone to vibrate when I have a text, but not for other notifications.
Not sure if there is a software bug or am I missing something. On my M8 i had to double tap lockscreen notification to unlock and open the app. On my new M9 it takes only one tap to do same. It is quite annoying as I used to double tap. Also prefer double as never happened to tap by accident.
So I recently got the LG G4, and i really like it so far, but whenever i get a notification and i tap it on my lock screen it says swipe to unlock and at the bottom there is a big grey box.
I recently done the 5.1 update and followed it with a factory reset in order to get a clean install. Everything is running smoothly so far apart from SMS preview. Before my changes, I was able to read an sms, one line at a time as a preview in the notification bar. I must have missed something or been over cautious when faced with fresh settings as I no longer get this.
I have updated to ICS and for me, it's all good and my phone is so smooth. But 1 thing that makes me sad about the ICS update is that there is no message notification in the lock screen. Where is it now? I hope in the next update they will include this. By the way, the camera is so good right now.
I have just got a new bb torch as I lost my old one and on this new phone when I receive a text message and click on the icon I am now getting a preview of the message in the notification bar.Can some please tell me how to turn this off so that it just shows who the message is from? This was not happening on my previous phone, is this something to do with the new software update?
