Galaxy S6 :: How To Get Screen To Light Up When Message Received
Sep 6, 2015
Whenever I'm on PC or PS4, or doing basically anything except being on my phone, when I receive Whatsapp/FB/any message, the S-View screen doesn't light up, like it did previously with my S4. It's annoying as I tend to use headphones a lot, and can't hear the quiet vibration. Is there any way to make the screen light up?
So just got my s6 edge 3 days ago (13th.) I don't know if i just noticed now or what, but whenever i get a text message or facebook message, basically any notification, my screen wont turn on and display it. Just led blink + sound+ viberate. I went into my settings and tried basically everything possible. I have show notifications on lock screen and inside messages app its toggled to show on lock screen also.
After the lollipop update whenever I get a message the phone screen does not "wake" and tell me. Also the LED notification light does not change either.
It is very troublesome to always having to keep pressing the lock button so I can check for message. How to make my phone light up the screen when I get a text message?
I got a text message from an agency I work for giving me details and the address of a contract I was due to start that night. I'd also reeived and set up my s6 the previous day and went to cut and paste the postcode from the received message into googlemaps searchbar like I'd done millions of times before on my old HT desire hd. It would not let me bring up the cursor tool to select just the postcode so I had to copy the whole text of the message. Inconveinent but okay I'll just delete what I don't need. Pasted this into googlemaps searchbar and begun to delete the excess text. First the stuff and the end of the text message then off to the beginning... hang on?? there is no way of getting to the beginning of thetext to delete the excess there. I couldn't point as the searchbar scrolls along and there is no left or right arrow on the keypad to move across. I couldn't believe it! I'd been doing this fot years on myHTC Desire hd and that as like 4 years old!
Maybe I'm missing something so I played arounda little more and discovered the clipboard but couldn't find a way to edit I'd copied here either?? I called my network provider and they didn't have any answers so gave me samsungs number who I phoned and also seemed to have no answers??? Really I don't get how the cursor used to select the required text is available everywhere else but in received messages?? It was there in email, there in composing texts, there on the web??
cutting and pasting a postcode from a received text message into googlemaps should not be this much hardwork or at least it wasn't on my HTC
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 and I would like to know if I can set the message received notification to repeat itself so if I am away from my phone and missed the original notification it will continue to notify me until I acknowledge it
I have an S6 and can not find how to set up the text message alerts to continue notification every minute until the text is opened? Also - my notifications are only sent on the first text not when the responses come in?
So starting last night I noticed that when I get a instagram notification my phone would chime and it never did that before. No big deal. However this morning I put my phone on mute and when i received a text message my phone chimes. I turned the sound off and defaulted the messages to silent but it still keeps making the same noise even though my phone is on silent.

Is there a setting you can change so the screen lights up when notifications are received? At the moment my screen stays off and I get a sound or vibration if the phone is on silent.
Received Text message failure due to low signal and now my iPhone will not resend the message and will not send any other messages to the same number - all happened after moving up to iOS.5
As the title says, my blue led notification light blinks continuously when the screen is off. No apps are up and running and there are no missesd texts/calls/etc. Couldn't find an answer through any google searches.
So when I charge overnight the screen lights up every time it hits 100% waking my wife and baby up! It goes off after 10 seconds but is there any way to not make it light up?
I've just left iOS for Android and the thing I missed the most from my iphone is the light-up-lock-screen functionaly in which I don't have to pick-up my phone to see the notification light up on my locked screen. Instead of this cool feature, my S6 gives a vibration or the LED lights up without automatically light up the screen which is annoying cause I need to pick up my phone and hit the home button to see the notifications.Can I had this feature on my besides that superb S6?
i just got the galaxy s6 edge i noticed i keep getting the flashing blue LED light when my screen is off even though i am not received any text, emails or any notification on my phone. it just keeps flashing. how do i turn this off? I have gone into settings>sounds and notifications> led indicator and turned it off but it still flashes.
Before the Galaxy S6 got released, on the review videos I seen when the phone is laying on its screen and your phone was getting a call, the screen would light up different colors per caller depending on how you have it assigned. How to do that?
When I'm trying to power on the phone, I get the initial black and white "Samsung Galaxy S6" screen. Then everything goes black and the blue LED on the top left lights up and stays on, does not flash or dim, just stays on. The phone does not vibrate or make any sound when it does this.
What I've tried to fix it:
1) Power + Volume down (maintenance boot mode) ... I've tried normal boot, factory reset and booting in safe mode, all just give me a black screen with the blue LED.
2) Power + Volume Up + Home (andoid system recovery screen) ... When doing this, the phone displays the black and white "Samsung Galaxy S6" screen, followed by a bluish colored screen with a little android guy on it, followed by the dead android guy with a yellow exclamation triangle over his head, then goes into the android system recovery menu. On this screen I can wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition and reboot and I still get a black screen with a steady blue LED.
3) Power + Volume Down + Home followed by Volume Up (Downloading screen) ... Takes me to the bluish screen warning me about downloading a custom OS. After hitting up it does not show the knox has ever been triggered. I've tried using ODIN 3.10.6 to reinstall fresh firmware (5.1.1 G920VVRU3BOG5) and after it successfully installs it, it boots to a black screen with the steady blue LED.
I having the problem after update my X10 to android 2.1. I found that my screen light sensor (which actually works b4 under different environment lighting) and the LED notification light (it works b4 while I got the missed call or sms) do not work after update to android 2.1... One more is, the screen color gradation seem worst that b4...is it normal?
I've bought an old galaxy s6 white from someone, background light of the touch keys doesn't light up only "back and multitasking" symbols, it also lights up area around these symbols, I can see it very clearly in the dark. This thing doesn't happen on my brother's S6 gold.Is it normal on S6 white or my S6 has been replaced other glass?
I suppose received simple or a multimedia message, on my screen I can see the envelop, but when I go into my received messages, I cannot see it, the new on. The inbox shows there´s a new message but where?
2) I received a sent confirmation (the 'V' next to the message -> info from server it was sent and saved on my BB)
3) not received by recipient...
4) I finally received a received confirmaton (the 'R' appearing over the 'V' to say it was received -> info from the server that the recipient received my message, and this info, shown by the 'R' on my mobile, should thus most probably be saved somewhere on my BB as it is shown on my device, and was only shown when info was received from server!)But I do not know WHERE TO FIND IT??? (I only see when I sent the message)Now, we have to find where it is saved And I think we can only find it by plugging the BB on a PC and searching for internal logs...
Since last tuesday, I am not receiving text message notification on my phone. It is not only after I made a phone call that the text message notification show up. I check all the settings and they seems to be okay.
