Send tile text to lock screen

Hi everybody. I'm writing a universal app and I'm trying to send text to the lock screen. I have a background task that creates the wide tile which works on the start screen and I enable the badge and tile text option in the app manifest but I see no
text on the lock screen. With the same code on the mobile version I can see text on the lock screen. Here is the code. Is there anything else I must do to make it work? Thanks in advance.
var wideTile = TileUpdateManager.GetTemplateContent(TileTemplateType.TileWide310x150PeekImage02);
var wideTileImageAttributes = wideTile.GetElementsByTagName("image");
((XmlElement)wideTileImageAttributes[0]).SetAttribute("src", fileNameWide);
wideTile.GetElementsByTagName("text")[0].InnerText = "Text 1";
wideTile.GetElementsByTagName("text")[1].InnerText = "Text 2";
wideTile.GetElementsByTagName("text")[2].InnerText = "Text 3";
wideTile.GetElementsByTagName("text")[3].InnerText = "Text 4";
updater.Update(new TileNotification(wideTile));

I think I've found the problem. After the wide tile I had the code for the large one. So my last line was updater.Update(new TileNotification(largeTile)); That was stopping the wide tile text from displayed on the lock screen. Moving the the wide tile
code at the end solved the problem. Just one question should I use different the same updater for the three different tile sizes of declare one for each tile. Thanks very much for your time.

  • Can't send photos taken via lock screen

    When I take a photo using the new quick access from the lock screen (which I LOVE), when I tap on the thumbnail and view the photo, the little button with the icon of the square and the arched arrow, the one I'd tap on to send the photo via email, text, etc., is missing.
    I then have to close the camera app and open Photos, locate the photo and send it from there.
    This doesn't happen if I take a photo the old fashioned way, swiping the lock screen and then opening the camera app. When I do it that way, take a photo, and tap on the thumbnail of the photo I just took to view it, the Share button is there.
    SO annoying and pretty much cancels out all the excitement of being able to access the camera quicker.
    Anyone else experiencing this? Is there anything I can do?
    Thanks!

    It would make sense in your case that you could send.
    But have you also noticed that you cannot see your other camera roll photos in the locked state?
    I can see where you are coming from, and would suggest that you mention it to Apple:

    They seldom reply, but it might be addressed.

  • Cant send photo through text....via camera on lock screen

    I cant seem to find a way to text a pic or email a pic using the camera function via the lock screen. Try to access the camera from the lock screen...take a pic and try to forward it, send it etc. You cant. The function does not work. You have to go back to the home screen and then access your picture in photos. This was also a problem in ios 6.

    or you can go to the messages app and add the photo there or take the pictures there

  • HI, I recently upgraded my operating system IOS 5.0.1 on an iphone 3gs. MY question is, how do I get the text messaging preview to just pop up so that I can see the name only when the lock screen is on? The conventional ways of doing this aren't working

    HI, I recently upgraded my operating system IOS 5.0.1 on an iphone 3gs. My question is, how do I get the text messaging preview to just pop up so that I can see the name only when the lock screen is on? The conventional ways of doing this, such as using turning off the SMS preview under the "passcode lock", well that option no longer exists, or if it does, I'm somehow missing it.
    When I go to the "messages" setting under settings on my phone, I still don't see an option of turning it off.
    If I can just get the name of the person sending the message, as I had it before, I'd be happy.
    Help!

    That option still exists in Settings > Notifications > Messages > Show Prview (OFF) and View in Lock Screen (ON). Here's how to configure your Notifications and Notification Center for iOS 5: http://iphone-and-i.blogspot.com/2012/01/how-to-customize-notification-center-in .html

  • Is there a way to still get audible alerts of new messages without having any banners or text appear in the lock screen?

    I'm trying to make sure I am doing this correctly.  How do you set up alerts for both text messages and iMessages so that even when the phone is locked you will still get an audible or vibration alert as soon as the message is received?  And is there a way to do this without having any text appear on the lock screen that shows who the message is from.  My phone stays in locked mode most of the time but I still want to recieve alerts for new messages as soon as they arrive.  I'm also concerned about privacy so I don't want any text or preview or even any information about the sender to appear on the lock screen.  I just want a vibration or audible alert.

    Open the Settings app > Notifications > Messages. Scroll down adn turn OFF "View In Lock Screen". You may want to consider setting Alert style to none, but this will not impact what happens when the screen is locked.

  • Still no news on how to disable the sender's ID on the notification banner in locked screen?

    Still looking for some more help on this, since I've got no answer from Apple yet.
    Maybe never gave it a thought, although all my friends complain about the same thing...
    I'll say it again, it is annoying to have the 3rd party ID on plain sight: my clients/friends don't have to see WHO's texting. On the other hand, i can't have the sound on at meetings, meaning I won't know I had a message without fumbling with it to unlock the screen and check the banners.
    The light does not work either, because it will flash 2 or 3 times and switch off...
    Thanks!

    As far as I know, you cannot hide the sender.  You can turn off the message preview or turn off the lock screen notification altogether.
    I assume from what you say that you've already let Apple know what you think.

  • Has anyone else had the problem where Siri on iOS 6 locks the phone after sending a text using a Bluetooth headset.   I have the auto lock turned off but I have had it happen many times.

    Siri is locking  my iPhone 5 running ios6 after sending a text message using my Jawbone icon HD Bluetooth earpiece.  Sometimes it will lock before the text is even sent. I have the auto lock turned off.

    I have this problem too. Auto lock is off and Siri can be used from the lock screen but this defeats the purpose of hands free usage for example when you are on a bicycle and can't use the phone normally. After sending a message or a reply to one Siri locks the phone and you cannot hear new messages until you unlock the phone which can be potentially dangerous!
    I'd love to see if there is a solution as I can't see any option in settings (either Siri settings or pass lock settings) to fix this.

  • 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.

  • IOS7: Is there any way to turn off previews of texts in the lock screen but allow previews in the notification center when the phone is unlocked?

    In iOS6 text message previews would be shown in the notification center when the phone was unlocked and would just show up as "text message" or "imessage" in the lock screen...is there a way to change it so it's the same in iOS7? currently with "no preview" picked, whenever I swipe down in my notification center it just shows text messages with the contact name and not the message itself like it used to.

    I've set up another user on my home Mac and left that one logged in. Now when I connect from work it asks me if I want to share the screen or log on virtually as my user. I think choosing the second option doesn't power up the screen.

  • Is there a way to expand the text area of the login/lock screen for the warning message?

    I put our company's standard warning message in the Security & Privacy system preference ("Show a message when the screen is locked.") and it overflowed the allotted text area for the warning message text on the login screen and lock screens.  It seems that the area allows about 250 character messages and I need to provide about 500 characters.  Is there any way to expand the text area allotted for this purpose?
    Bob Reed

    To be a little more specific about the challenge I'm facing, I want to increase the allotted text space for the field I've outlined in the attached image.  Seems like there ought to be a NIB file that could be edited to accomplish this task:
    I would appreciate any advice on which file should be edited to expand the text field.

  • When I press on a land line number, the phone does not call the number, but comes up with a screen to send a text to it.  How do I get my phone to default to phoneing a landline?

    When I press on a land line number, the phone does not call the number, but comes up with a screen to send a text to it.  How do I get my phone to default to phoneing a landline?  When I press a mobile number in contacts, the phone automatically phones the number.  I do not mind this as I hardly ever send texts, but I would like to have the option of what to do.  This seems such an obvious issue but I can not solve it even with much web searching.  Thanks!

    I can't delete my question, so I'll just say that you press on the type of number written in the box to the left of the box you typye the number into.  Dumb or what? 

  • I was sending a text and then the screen went blank with the white apple.  I turned my iphone back on and all my texts  and contacts were gone.  How can i get my text messages back?

    My friend was sending a text with a pic as an attachment and then suddenly, she got a blank screen with the white apple logo and it then shut off.  When she turned it back on, she discovered all her texts and her contacts were missing.  How can she get them back?  She's got a iOS 4.3.5 with a 16GB iPhone 4. 

    Connect to the computer she regularly syncs to, right click on the iPhone's name in iTunes, and choose "restore from backup".

  • Is there a way to have notifications for messages/whatsapp in the lock screen without showing the identity of the sender?

    Is there a way to show banners (in the lock screen) to notify of a new message withough showing the name of the sender, as for business purposes this can sometimes be confidential? Ie. I want it to just say for example 'whatsapp message', rather than 'whatsapp message from XX'.

    Answer would be no unless application provided such feature. Numbers does not as far as I know.
    Note that even if you have complete list of formulae used in a table, identifying formulae referencing any given cell is not simple.
    E.g., cell T20 is referenced not only in
    =T20+1
    but also in
    =SUM(T)
    =SUM(20:20)
    =SUM(S19:U22)
    =OFFSET(S1,19,1,1,1)
    =INDIRECT("T"&(10*2))
    In order to identify such formula, we have to actually evaluate it to see if it references the given cell. Especially such formula as OFFSET() and INDIRECT() may not be found by static parser because their parameters can be dynamic.
    Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings.

  • I'm trying to find information on a form of message I have received to my iPhone. It appears on locked screen and I must press the green Dismiss icon at bottom to get rid of the message from the unknown sender and to then enter my pass code to enter my is

    I am trying to find information about a type of message I received on my iPhone. It appears as the message only on my locked screen, I must press on the green Dismiss icon at the bottom and the message disappears and then I can unlock my phone with passcode and use phone. This message stays there until I press Dismiss. It shows no sender or where it came from but is being sent to my phone number. Only a message the sender intends me to read shows on the screen then once dismissed, it disappears and does not show up or save in any application on my phone. Any ideas?

  • When playing YouTube in background the phone stays on and does not auto lock and if it is auto locked and you receive a text it will stay on / lit even in the lock screen

    Mine and my wifes iphon 5s is having way too many problems for today's technology, when using iTunes music app from the lock screen if you press pause from the lock screen it stays the same not like before when you paused the music the play buttons would disappear but now they just stay there, and when playing YouTube videos in the background from safari and the phone is in lock screen and you receive a text the screen will stay lit until you turn it off yourself and also the same thing happens in the home screen if your playing YouTube from safari in the background the phone won't auto dim of auto lock after any amount of time it will stay on forever these problems need to be fixed, also the wifi is not working like it used to and the LTE and 3G data are slow, slower then the 3GS when ios 6 came out. Please fix thank you, loyal customers for 8 years and own almost every product you sell, thanks again

    Any number of things could have caused the phone to do this. If after the reset you are experiencing additional problems, the next step in the troubleshooting process is a restore from a backup. Make sure you have one before you start the restore process. If that does not improve things, then you may have to restore as a new device. Remember, restoring as a new device will delete all data off the phone. Make sure all of your pictures are imported to the computer and all other data is synced to supported applications on the computer before restoring as new. See this support document about backups http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946, and this about restoring the phone. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
