Help - how do I stop HTC text prog coming up on screen - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I run Handcent for my text messaging but every time I get a text come in, the default messaging prog pops up on the screen.
How do I stop it coming up as I only want to use my Handcent program as it is much more pleasant to use..
Many thanks

go to htc text program, make sure you are not in any thread but just the start of the app, press menu go to settings and disable all the notifications.

Very annoying messaging issue

I am having very annoying issue with messaging on my device, on any ROM..
When I receive SMS message, go to inbox and tap on the received SMS to open it, it does opens it but it scrolls down to the end of the SMS by itself and all I can see is blank white space, to read the SMS I need to scroll back up to see the text..
This is very annoying and I suspect it is caused by some 3rd party app, because it works file until I start installing apps on it..
Anyone had the same issues ?
Turn off D-Pad Navigation for PIE and it will work as you wish it to do.
Cheers
Thanks, this solved it..

Notification Bar

Morning all, got my desire 2 days ago and still trying to get used to it after leaving my HD2. 1 thing i am annoyed at is the apparent inability to turn the notification bar off for sms, received/sent and STILL get a sound/vibrate.
I have found the settings in messages and handcert as i use that as my default sms now.
If i remove the tick from notification bar (in messages menu) and the sound 1 is ticked but then grays out. Nothing is shown or more importantly HEARD even though its ticked but grayed out. I have done the same for the handcert but it seems the notification settings in the messages program override the handcert ones.
Basically i want to have NO notifications on the notification bar but for it to make a sound and vibrate. Can it be done?

You could try duck tape?
Seriously its only fully visable if you pull it down, can't you just ignore it?
no really helpful that, i can ofc course ignore it. but being a non winMo i thought you could edit it so it just never showed up. i'd just prefer not to have to drag the thing down and click clear every time i send/receive a msg.
not asking much for such a customisable phone or so i thought.

If you read the message the notification disappears...
And you can change your whole ''desktop'' except the notification bar as far as I know.
Maybe a rom cooker can edit the android files but out of the box? No you can't change it. Sorry
And many people see the notification tab as a plus, and I do to I really have
a hard time imaging getting annoyed with it so sorry for my first response but it goes in the list of (for example)
1. I hate androids open source way of doing things, wich really is a virtue of android. 2. I hate htc sense (then don't buy it)
thanks for the reply.
I am just slightly annoyed that changing the settings in the original messages settings conflict and over ride the handcert sms ones. gonna try chomp and see if those settings can take priority over the default messages app.

You can set the settings for each program, if you want to turn off notifications, you can do that.
I have turned off notifications from the deafult messaging app and uses hancent's notifications.
If you dont want any og those apps notifications you have to turn them both off

disbale HTC SMS/MMS notification when using Handcent

i like Handcent but one thing that has always bothered me is that even though handcent notifies me of texts and i read/reply and the handcent notification goes away, the default HTC/Android messaging app is still running and showing the notifications in the notification bar.
how can i remove that crap, its so annoying to have to go click the 'clear' button in the task bar every time i get a text even after i have replied to it with handcent.
again this is the default HTC messaging app that is notifying me, not handcent.
Turn off the notifications
Since handscent and the stock messaging are separate applications they use separate notifications. However, handscent still gets its information from the messaging application. So it is as simple as turning off your notifications for messaging in the message setup. It wont hurt handscent at all. Just open up the messaging application and turn off all your notifications by hitting menu and settings and notifications (i think). Then you wont get them anymore.
This should solve your problem.

[Q] Sms notification suggestions?

Hey, I'm currently running AOKP ROm on my GS3 and I use the built in sms quick reply option for the notification drop down menu when I'm normally using the phone, But I want that same or similar feature for when my phone is locked. I currently have chompsms and enjoy its pop up, but its a bit much and runs slow. Is there any tweak than can be done to shunt the notification quick reply window that pops up after selecting quick reply in the drop down to the lock screen? Or is there an app that has a very clean and fast lock screen pop up?
I've tried most of the other sms apps out there including handcent, GO sms, sms pop up, and popup sms. Are there any others I could try?
Thanks
