LED issue

Is anyone else having an issue with this? I already have the Led notifications disabled yet when I get a missed call, text or email the led still lights up. I have unticked the options in settings>led indicator. I am using the stock apps for messaging, email and phone calls. No 3rd party apps.
I thought the issue was with gmail as I read it somewhere on the intertnet. But that doesnt seem to be it. If it was why does it still blink with a misssed call or text.
Anyone else with this issue? I really dont want to do anothsr master reset. I have had to go through four master reset for other issues. I finaly got the phone set up the way I want and dont want to do it all over again.
Any help is appreciated.

Be kind of nice to know what ROM and kernel you're on.

Have you tried anything to fix it? Like a master reset?

Have you turned off smart response? I don't have this problem because I have the service light running but I'm wondering if that might do it. Also they make this stuff, "duct tape," you might try that

2 master resets and flashing the root injected ucalem and alg1 ROMs. The problem persists.

Wow. I was hoping a master reset would fix it. Now im not too sure if I even want to try that. I finally have the phone set up the way I want. I would hate to do a reset for nothing.

Having the same exact issue here. Was going to start a thread about it myself.
I have the LED for notifications OFF in the system settings but they still continue to appear. I have tried multiple things to no avail.
I too am just on stock GS3, no rooting.
Would love to find a fix if anyone has found one...

I read here on these forums that your issue was a KNOWN issue and that it'll be worked out
with the next update........ if there's any truth to that, we'll see.

So you're getting flashing blue led for these notifications?
Have you checked yes for notifications in the default apps themselves?

Yes thats correct. If I disable the notification option in the default apps then I wouldnt get a sound or status bar notification when a text or email comes in. All options for the LED lights are disabled in the settings.
Im hoping that this is a bug that will be fixed in a future update. I really dont want to master reset again.
If I were to reset, will my apps be downloaded automatically? All the resets I have done I had to manually look for them and download them again.
Thanks everyone for the feedback. Hope we can find a solution for this.

If you reset, you have to go to Play, choose My Apps from phone menu and reinstall. Only updates are (if you so choose) automatic.
As I remember it, with my I747 I had to set notifications to be on in apps and also set LED indicator to display when there was activity. Otherwise, the phone could set there all day and I'd never know there were messages or missed calls.

Screen turn on when receive text?

I am just wondering how to turn this feature off. Thanks.

bump, anyone know?

I've checked all the settings and as far as I can tell you can't change this. . I'm guessing this is something that devs can add as customization on their roms.
It only lasts about 5 seconds each time so it hasn't been much of a concern to me. But if someone finds a way I'll take it

The only way I know to make it go away is to use a different messaging app, such as handcent.

Vibration for notifications

I searched and could not find anything regarding changing the vibration pattern for an all stock note 2. Mine will only vibrate in a single long pattern, no matter what I set it to in the settings. I like to use the stock messaging because it's compatibility with the lock screen but I'd really like it to vibrate in a couple short pulses instead of that single long one. If I'm missing something I apologize but I have no idea what to change aside from the options in the settings menu. Any help or other information would be much appreciated, I'm sure it's something silly I'm missing anyway!

Go to settings- sounds-device vibration u can chabge it to a few different patterns

Thanks for the reply, I did that however, and it only impacts the ringtone.

Same problem for me, and it's super frustrating. Is this specific to the AT&T version I wonder??

I am not sure! That is how the note 1 default notification vibrate was, the single long pulse. The sms mms one was a quick twin pulse, I'd prefer that! I like how the sms app works with the tw lock screen and launcher etc so I don't want to use another one if I can avoid it. I wish it would allow me to use a different vibration setting because my phone is silent a lot! I asked samsung and they gave me the ringtone answer. The service from the online chat is weak.

An app called lite flow will do exactly that.

Awesome. Thanks for the info. I downloaded the app and tried to set it up but it wanted to stop air view in the process. A related application was there

Which worked perfectly. Thanks foe the heads up, much appreciated.

SMS & screen on

Can someone tell me if there is a way to stop the screen from turning on when I get an SMS as well as stopping the SMS from appearing on the lock screen? It's very annoying and I'm sure over time it cuts into battery life.
Thanks.

Msg. Setting.

Settings in message app and uncheck preview message.
Theres no way to prevent the screen from waking i dont think...custom roms only.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app

Thanks for the replies. I'll have to wait for a ROM then.
Thanks again.

Problem is with preview unchecked you still get a box on your lock screen minus the text info. I believe it just says "message".

chomp
use chomp sms. its quite fast, more customizable than the stock messaging app and actually has an option from preventing the screen wake. i cant say for the other sms applications though, but chomp is good

I have been using Go SMS for years. I really like the customization and settings. You can turn off stock notifications and eliminate the screen wake issue.

Sms/mms turns screen on???

So ive been trying to find the setting to disable this. Ive pocket dialed the police at work twice and had to disable my pattern lockscreen because of it. And as I do online banking this is not an option lol. Ive checked every setting I can think of and even disabled the little quick reply popup and nothing. Anyone got any ideas?

I used a 3rd party sms that lets me disable the screen coming on. I use chompsms and I think it works for your purpose
edit...I thin my screen doesn't come on because I have the folio case that keeps the screen off until I open the cover. maybe try a proximity app to keep the screen off while in your pocket
