[Q] why no message display when screen sleep - HTC One X

I am a new user of android(from iphone)
htc one x is my first android phone, it is really a good phone.
but i found that when my screen is sleep. if some one send me a text message, i can just heard a tone but the screen is still sleep (black), you can't see some notification until I press the top button to unlock the phone.
because for iphone, i can see something if the screen is sleep.
i know there must be some settings i don't know. anybody can help me for that?

The screen doesn't wake when you get a message only when you get a phone call, there may be an application or someone could make a modification to allow this

thanks for your reply.
i am wondering is that only for htc one x or only for htc or only for android os?

There is a cool paid app called pops which will light the screen when a text, email, facebook, or twatter message comes though

From what I have experienced it is seen throughout the Android OS, but as I said a modification could exist or an application on the play store

You can also try using Go SMS, there's an option for msg pop up and direct reply. I used to like it on my Desire Z, but the stock messaging app is just so nice xD
Rocking the Lee on my HTC One X

Use Sms Popup - does exactly what iphone does =] (and can even set a mode to make the message pop up private so that the name/message doesnt appear straight away). Plus you can still use the stock messaging app.

If you only want the screen to light up, Tasker can do this. Tasker in combination with Secure Settings (which you can find here on XDA)

I know this isn,t going to help you but my HOX does this on the standard unrooted 1.28 ROM for some reason. The funny thing is that it also started doing this for my emails a week ago without me changing anything! Also I hate this feature and wanted it to go back to how it should behave as standard but I haven' t been able to turn it off.

SMS showing on lock screen

Is there anyway to remove this & the missed calls? Kind of hte purpose of locking the phone ya know...
Yeah, exactly what I thought!
If you use Handcent SMS, which is much better than the stock app imo, you can enable, disable popup over the lock screen.
You can also tell it to show the popup so you can see who its from but not show the text contents.
i actually think that option is quite useful, being able to see if you have new mssages with one click
I like it alot too, i can see if it's worth unlocking the phone accoring th who did the missed call/sms or mail. It's the main reason why i like senses lock screen over androids stock!
Sense lock screen? How do I enable that....This is my 1st android phone so i know nothing about the OS

if only it did it for emails too!
I realize it has been a while but no body came up with a solution.
I'm don't like the fact that anyone who picks up my phone can see the actual text message on my screen. Having the sms icon on the notification bar is enough, is there way to remove the text from the lockscreen?
Use pattern lock?

Even when using pattern lock, when you wake the phone you will first see HTC lockscreen. So it doesn't help...

No solution to this? It is the most annoying thing. I can not believe that there is no options to disable sms preview on the lock screen. I would make great donation for someone who can fix this
Buy widget locker from market. It replaces the while lock screen with a customizable one
I see no reason why its causing problem. Its only showing a little right?
yeah, it only shows the number (or name) and some words of the message (maybe the first 3?), not more. Don't see where it is such a huuuuuge problem or is your phone always in other people's hands?
well 3 words can make a huge problem, and yes my phone is very often in other people hands But I found a solution. with chomp sms there is a setting which disable this notifications...It is pain in the ass to use two different sms clients but it is better than nothing.
Well I guess a small option could've been included, but I can't see any real issue here really. Every tentht user here doesn't have a Facebook with hundreds of unnecessary people who can take participation in your private lives, and it is not considered a privacy issue, but three small words and a name on a lock screen are??
The real issue here is that your phone should be holstered in your pocket when not used, and not in other people's hands.
well IMO, the issue here is that, when you use a different app from stock one, the unread SMS count does not disappear when you read messages with a non stock app...
That's annoying!

Impossible to turn off alarm clock!!

Sometimes my alarm clock does not show any popup to turn it off!!!
The only way to turn the alarm of is then to turn of the phone!!
The same thing is with the calendar.
What's strange it looks like the phone is changing its mind according to it's mood and sometimes the popup shows on and sometimes it doesn't.
I've found this thread but on my HTC desire Z there is no such option:
SETTINGS/sounds&notifications/notifications.then in events scroll to reminders then tick the box for display message on screen tab
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Even if it was there, why would the phone behave differently without changing anything in the settings?
So anyone knows what to do?
It really makes me mad when it rings early in the morning and there is no f$#$$popup there.
Please help.
you may have to do a full restore
What do you mean? Would you be more specific?
ps. I've found many people have this problem (for ex. on Polish forum), no one knows what's the cause.
Just use alarm clock plus, it has nap setting if ur still sleepy long press for nap and minutes will pop-up very helpful for last minute haha

LED Notification - change timeout?

Right now it looks like the LED Notification on the One X is set at something like 5 minutes (it stops blinking after that). I presume this is a simple setting (maybe in build.prop - I'm no dev). Is there any app or hack that can make this longer? I don't always look at my phone every 5 mins or less and I like not turning on the screen to know if I have a notification.
there is a app in market - i think it called "blink". With this you can manualy setup all led-colour, blink-time and much more others.
Will that blink app works with extending htc one x notification led duration?
You can also do it with Tasker.
I didn't find the blinker.
Tasker is not working for me...
I don't believe that can't configure the led timeout...
Yes I would also like to try it. If you search "Blink" on google play online it's the first result. However that app only lets you configure the green led and I don't think the frequency change works. Also you can't change the orange led and it cannot find it.
Still searching...

I'm not sure if these work with One X. I used Led me know for my Desire HD.

unfortunatelly the led blink only five minutes in all applications...
I used to have LED me know app on my Desire Z, but it didn't work so good after the Android 2.3.3 update.
I'll follow this thread, I need that blinking light to stop only when I turn on the screen, otherwise it's pretty useless if you don't see the phone in the first 5 mins.

i absolutely agree with you. This is useless feature in this form.
I've found the application (with source code) which name of missed reminder.
https://launchpad.net/missed-reminder/+download
if you disable the factory led notications and you can enable this (except the gmail notification because is not working whith new gmail api...) it will works sms, mms and missed call notification without time limit.
i've tried repair the code that we can use gmail reminder but the new gmail api don't work with HTC sense 4.0 (but with CM9 works)
i'll try more... maybe
Thank You!!!!
Thank you man, i followed your advice on my HTC One X and now thanks to you the 5 minutes
led blinking just got solved,thank you very much for your help you are a lifesaver!!!!

HTC One X sms notification, video camera focus and menu button

Some thoughts on my HTC One X: I love this phone it's amazing however there are 3 little issues I have encountered .
1. Video recording constantly goes out of focus (i upload and unboxing video of the HTC Bluetooth speaker and you can see the camera issues there).
2. Text message notifications do not work properly if at all, on three occasions I missed txt mssg because I didn't get a notification, I only saw them when I was looking up a contact or by browsing through my widgets.
3. The menu button is placed in the top right corner for many apps which forces you to reach for it,this button should have been placed in the bottom of the display for more convenience since that is where you hold the phone from.
Finally, while typing this, I realized that when using text trace, if you notice a word was mis typed after moving forward you cannot just double tap to get word suggestions or remove it,you have to back space the whole word. I hope HTC can issue a software update to address these issues.the sooner the better

1. That's Constant Auto focus, just turn it off in settings.
2. Reset your phone, I have no issue with Text notifications.
3. That's nothing to do with the phone, it's the way the App Implements the Menu button.

Keep screen OFF when receiving notifications

I have a smartwatch and my beautiful phone has also a notification LED. Considering this, I do not want to use the lock-screen notifications at all.
Therefore, I turned OFF the lock screen notifications from the "sounds and notifications" settings menu but even now, in case of a notification or event, the screen will turn ON briefly. If the phone is in my pocket during that time and I have a trusted device nearby (my smartwatch) then the phone will unlock by randomly swiping the screen with my leg (large shorts ).
For the past few days I pulled out the phone in different languages, or with the tethering hotspot active or other randomly activated settings.
So, the 1000 points question is: how the heck can I force the 10 to not turn on the screen on notifications? I have no root and I do not intend to install one (company policy). Is there any solution? Thx.
Interesting. My screen never wakes up to show me a notification, so I'm wondering if it's app specific? I know with Textra, there's a setting to wake the screen for each text message, but I have that turned off.
It's definitely an app you're using that's turning on the screen.
I want my screen to turn on when I get a text message Im annoyed It can't

Thank you guys. It was indeed app specific. After you posted this I started looking in all the settings from all the apps with notifications access. The guilty one was Nils. There was a small switch to turn on the screen, indeed.
Thanks again.
