Notification of text message

When i got the phone and i revieved a message, it would come up with a box saying 1 new message and you had the option to show or cancel
but now it just alerts me and i have to go into my inbox and then go into the message
how do i change it back?

Have you added the "notifications" widget to one of your homescreens? If so that is the reason why it no longer displays "1 new message".
The widget takes over the function and shows more detailed info such as the senders name, their picture (if set) and a preview of the message.
If you remove the widget from your homescreen it will function the traditional way and display "1 new message" instead.

  • I have a Galaxy SIII and I stopped receiving visual notification for text messages.  How do I correct it?

    I have a Galaxy SIII and recently stopped receiving visual notification for text messages.  How do I correct it?

        Hmmm that's strange TopDiver. Let's get to the bottom of this. Have you checked the notification settings on the device? To verify the notification setting on the device click on menu>settings>sound>notification sound, then test device notifications.
    Thank You,

  • No notification on text messages on Z10 after the 10.2.1.3062 update

    I have recently updated my phone to the new 10.2.1.3062 which had 28mb on my Z10, now there is no notification on text messages. messages are just poping through silently. no LED, no Sound. absolutely nothing. on text message icon on homescreen there is a little red star for notification that doesnt want to go as well. please help.

    Alternatively, you can use an autoloader to reload the software.
    You can download it here for the same os:
    http://filefactory.com/file/7il26x7cisqd/10.2.1_B3247_Z10-3G.rar
    Note that using this will also wipe all data from the phone.
    How to use?
    1) download it and extract it
    2) connect the device to a pc
    3) run the Exe file, it will automatically wipe and load the os in

  • Iphone double notification of text messages?

    I suddenly started getting notification tone twice for every text message received. Nothing else has changed on my iPhone 4s. Is there any fix please?

    Sorry but this settings change is NOT the culprit. The repeat allows a further notification after 2mins or more - these repeats are instantaneous. I did try setting no repeats, but no go.
    BTW I have discovered by experimentation that a hard reset (home plus on/off until the Apple logo appears) cures the issue, at least for now.

  • Notification words "Text Messages" in BB Hub is in French - "Missatges de text"

    Just got my Z10 a week ago and I love it.  still figuring out some of the workings, but in general I'm enjoying it.  Only weird thing is that in my BB Hub, the words "Text Message" actually appear in French - "Missatges de text" and I can't figure out how to change it. Everything else on my BB is in English.  I've tried changing the device language and that hasn't done anything.  I think it might be a software issue?

  • My phone won't show notifications on my home screen or lock screen for text messages

    My phone won't show notifications for text messages on my lock screen or my home screen, even thought both are turned on under the settings. Once I go into the messaging app, they will show up as new but not anywhere else. I get notifications for everything else except text messages.

    Messages should work with the email address that you use for your Apple ID. You have to be signed into that email address in order for any other email address that you have added to work.
    You should add your iPhone number to your Apple ID on the iPad, and then select that as the contact address at which you can be reached and all of the messages between the phone and the iPad will sync again.
    iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage - Apple Support
    Phone number missing on iPad or iPod touch
    If your phone number isn't listed on an iPod touch or iPad, follow these steps:
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    Verify that you're using the same Apple ID that you're using on your iPhone.
    On your iPad or iPod touch, sign out of your Apple ID in the following locations:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Sign in to your Apple ID with FaceTime and iMessage.
    If your phone number still isn't listed, follow these steps:
    Sign out of your Apple ID on all iOS devices, including your iPhone, in the following locations:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Sign in to your Apple ID on your iPhone.
    When activation is complete, your Apple ID and all verified email addresses should be visible in Settings > Messages > Receive At and Settings > FaceTime.
    Sign in to your Apple ID on your other iOS devices.

  • Don't see email accounts to change notifications and no notifications for TEXTS.

    I have had carrier issued software release 10.2.1.2977 for awhile.
    I noticed now that under Notifications --> Core Applications there is no mention of any of my email accounts.
    (But I have no issue receiving or sending email via this Q10).
    And although it seems that I can change notification for Text Messages, in practice there is no LED or Vibrate or Sound that happens when a text does arrive. (And again there is no issue receiving or sending texts via this Q10 BUT no notification of any type)
    Any ideas to resolve these notification problems?
    If not, I will be forced, albeit reluctantly to "starting fresh". 
    Having said that I am not sure the best and safest way to do this ie reinstall carrier OS and then restore what I have backed up using BB Link. 
    I would love to know of the easiest, safest way to do as I have described.
    Thanks for your advice.
    And yet as you can see I am able to make changes of NOTIFICATON for texts but whatever I choose I still don't get notification via LED or VIBRATION and for my email accounts which Ican't see LED and VIBRATE is working fine (but of course can't change them)!
    I have had this official OS10 software for awhile...well before I noticed this problem.

    If the apple id being used by iCloud isn't the one you want, go to settings > icloud > delete account. It doesn't actually delete the account, but it removes it from your device so you can put in the right apple id

    Hi, HPYUNBDAY! Are you only getting this behavior with the text messages? Have you tried checking the messaging settings of the phone specifically the incoming notifications?
    I'm not sure if it's actually possible to disable the notification for text messages. It's possible with the mail messages though. You can go to E-mail > Settings > Incoming Notifications.
    We'll wait for your response.

  • Text messaging on playbook was fixed now it's not

    Text messaging didn't work with the playbook  software update. No icon. Not found.  I found out that it was my phone. I went through the process to fix that. It worked for a day or so. No messages today. Opened the text messaging app to find a notification. Text messaging disabled due to IT policy. I don't even know what that means or who's policy it is. So I rebooted phone and playbook. I texted myself from another device. Phone got the text. PlayBook got the splash on the text message icon. Opened text messaging to get the "not found " page. Why is it this way?

    I'm having the exact same issue.  BB Bridge to Text Messages worked at first, then received an error regarding a policy prohibiting that option, and now I get a blank white page that says, "Not found".  We recently upgraded our MS Exchange server from 2003 to 2010.  We also replaced our BES 4.1 server with a BESX 5 server.  My PlayBook is not governed by the BESX server, but my BB Bold 9650 is. So far, no luck finding an answer as to why this is occurring or a resolution.
    You will have to talk with you IT department, it is a policy on the BES that was not set properly to let you use the texting mode on the bridge

  • LG G3 Text message repeat notification.

    Can anyone help me? The online guru couldn't! I set up my LG G3 text message notification to repeat every 5 minutes, this quickly became annoying, so I wanted to revert to a single notification. However, try as I might, I just couldn't find the menu in settings again! I tried to google it, to no avail, so I'm appealing to you, the great knowledgeable public.........thank you in advance!

    Open up the message app and look in the notification settings from there.

  • Text message notification missing

    My granddaughter has an iPhone (iPhone 4).  She is not receiving any notice of an incoming text message although she is receiving the messages fine.. There is no badge by the text message icon showing the number of unread messages or any other indication of aa unread message being present.  Under Settings/Notification Center/Messages the Badge App icon is turned on.  In Settings/Messages all options are also turned on.  What is she doing wrong?  Help Please.  Needless to say she both sending and receiving messages okay.
    Thanks... Bob

    Agunats that is very strange! Did you happen to notice if these are messages from other iPhones (iMessages) or from other device types (texts)? You seem pretty familiar with the phone. Can you let me know if you have done a soft reset http://spr.ly/6-15Njlx or reset the network settings http://spr.ly/6-16NjlI ?

  • Question on text message notifications with imessage open vs closed with  iOS7

    Before the upgrade to iOS7.1 when I received a text message my phone would vibrate both when the application was closed to nofify me of the message and when the application is open (I am looking at the text message) and then when another text would come through with the application still open the phone would vibrate again. Now that I have upgraded to iOS7.1 when the application for text messages is open and someone continues to text me while I am reading the other texts the phone barely (hardly able to feel it at all) vibrates. The problem is that if I leave the application open and am not looking at the phone then I don't realize texts are coming through. Anyway to fix this? I have power cycled the phone, checked all settings (that I can find) and turned off notifications and then back on again and still nothing.
    Ideas?
    Didn't have this issue before the upgrade.. Phone would vibrate the same with application open or closed. Would like that again.

    I have the same thing happening. Any help would be appreciated!

    You cannot update iPhone 4 to IOS 8.1.2, the highest you can update is IOS 7.1.2.
    Unless you've iPhone 4S (looks similar to iPhone 4)
