Galaxy S6 :: Screen NOT Awaking When Receiving Text Message (worked Prior To Phone Reset)
Dec 28, 2015
So I have a Samsung S6 Galaxy through Verizon. I also use the Message+ stock app that Verizon has placed on the phone.
My lock screen is disabled through a 3rd party app (No Lock), so when I previously received a text message, my screen would awaken, and a preview of said text message would show up in the status bar.
Now i had to reset my phone, and upon resetting, my phone will still show the blinking LED light, and make the sound associated with receiving a text message. However the screen no longer lights up, so now if i want to read the test message int the status bar, I have to hit the power button to light up my phone. Very annoying.
I have went through the settings where there used to be a checkbox that said "show preview in status bar and lock screen", but that selection no longer seems to be there. I will also say that if my screen is already awake (either if i'm currently using the phone, or the screen hasn't turned off yet), the preview of the text message DOES show up in the status bar.
I will use another app that just awakes my phone when a notification is received...but i don't want something that has pop-ups, widgets, and the like. I really just want my phone to awaken as it did prior due to the reset, without (seeing at least) any add-on's, etc.

How do I back up my phone prior to doing a factory reset?
What, if anthing, can't be backed up?
What other procedures would you recommend prior to doing a factory reset?
My phone is so screwy I suspect only a factory reset will straighten it out.

How to disable the 'SCREEN WAKE ON FEATURE'....
I don't want to start using alternative messaging apps becuase I shouldn't have to. As a consumer and user of the phone, I should be able to use the stock messages app if I want too.
What I am asking today is this - Does Samsung will include facility to DISABLE the SCREEN WAKE ON FEATURE in the Lollipop update? After all, it really seems to be a complete NO BRAINER to include an option to disable this feature.

His text message gets interrupted halfway through by an old message he sent before (be it a previous message from a few minutes ago or from weeks ago!) It only happens with texts from him, no-one else. I've tried deleting our conversation but it makes no difference. It's getting so frustrating cos I have to keep asking him to text me again and a lot of the time I just get another 'cracked' text!

When I do a soft reset my phone will text me with my own number. I will have two contacts in a text thread. When they reply to a text after the reboot I will get a response with my phone number listed instead of just the two contacts. When I respond to the text I text myself.

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.

I seem to have a problem with duplicate contacts appearing ONLY on my text message screen when I go into the recipient menu. The duplicate contacts DO NOT appear in my contacts screen.
I have:-
Disabled contacts from phone.
Disabled contacts from Google
Enabled contacts from slim card only.
When I go to text message > add a recipient. I get a list of duplicated contacts?

seems a bit lame compared to other questions! But, how do I set it so that when I recieve a text, it beeps every two minutes or so instead of just once? I can't find it anywhere! Also, when a text does come, the actual message quickly scrolls across the black bar at the top of the home screen..can I remove this? I would normally have the screen locked anyway but if i'd just used it and left it on the table for instance.

I have to open the messaging app to see if anybody has texted me. I've missed 2 very important time sensitive text messages already that have burned me.
I also have a band 2 (hate how it manages messages), but this problem occurs even when bluetooth and band 2 is off/not connected.
Nothing shows up on glance/lock screen even if I have messaging chosen to show quick status.

would like to ask of you could disable the emoticons when receiving text message? For example, the text I will receive is, "Meet you at 8pm." Instead, I will receive,"Meet you at pm".

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?

For example when I receive texts that are larger than normal, it shows 1/5, 2/5, 3/5, 4/5, and 5/5 sometimes more sometimes less. It's aggravating cause when you should be receiving one message, you receive several texts. And they are usually out of order so you gotta go back and forth. I am on U.S. Cellular and have a galaxy s5. My friend has a s4 on U.S. Cellular also and hers doesn't do this. I think it did this for me also on the s4 and now on the s5. Maybe I'm just missing a setting?

So I bought my S5 a few months ago, from T-Mobile. Recently, I unlocked the phone and switched over to AT&T. Now I've noticed that I'm not receiving all of my text messages. I can't figure out any real pattern, I just know that I'm not getting all of the texts people are sending me, but most of them are going through. Also, I've received several messages reading "122 Error Invalid Number. Please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code. 0605040710000041637469766174653A64743D3135" ....

The text messaging app gone missing after a soft reset. This on windows 10 build 10536. There was lots of apps in the store listed error and could not install, so I did a soft reset. Everything is backed on and few app still could install with error code.
The main problem now is the text message app gone missing. The button display as 'Microsoft messaging', when I click on it says need to download an app then direct to store, but then nothing happens.
