Text Notification Over Lockscreen - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My phone used to display incoming texts over the lockscreen (using Textra and Chomp) but for some reason this has stopped. Now the text will only show for a few seconds or not at all. Anyone have these issues and have a fix? My phone is not rooted and is stock.

[Q] Display messages in lock screen despite having notifications disabled?

Hi there.
Using Handcent SMS, I've disabled the news message notifications in the builtin messaging app.
With that, I lost the message preview in the ring lockscreen, obviously.
Is there any way to have both?
Meaning, having the messages previewed in the lockscreen AND not be bothered by double message notifications? (one for Handcent, one for stock app)?

[Q] Not receiving SMS notIfications on sprint version

Up until a couple of days ago, I was receiving notifications just fine. Now I'm not getting anything in notification bar or sound even though I have new texts. I've checked the volume of notifications and it's 100% and also checked the notification settings for the default messaging app. I've downloaded go SMS and the same thing-- no notifications visual or sound. I don't know where else to look. I must have changed a setting somewhere, but I can figure it out. Any ideas?

MMS notifications not working

I've searched around for this issue and haven't quite found the same issue or a fix... My phone doesn't notify me when I get an MMS. SMS works normal - screen turns on, shows preview of message, LED light blinks, and I have a counter on the lock screen showing how many messages there are. Email and missed calls work fine too.
But when I get a picture message, the phone doesn't light up, no counter on lock screen, no LED - basically no indication that I got a picture. Until I open up the messages app and see the thread with unread messages. If i get a normal SMS sometime after the MMS, the lock screen counter has the total number of unread messages (SMS + MMS), but no other indication of a missed MMS before that. Same thing happens when I get group messages (i.e., from iPhone users), although they do sort correctly into a group thread.
Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere? I've looked all over the settings in the phone and messages app. I have Go SMS installed for emojis and better group messaging, but I have all of its notifications off and the stock messages app set to default for receiving. Is there something else in there?
Running CleanROM 4.7 (although I've been having this issue for at least the past couple iterations of CleanROM).
Thanks for any help offered.

[Q] Text Notifications on Reboot Only Problem - FIXED

FIXED -- SEE FIX BELOW
I have an odd problem. My TMo SIII receives text messages fine. However, the notification ringtone does not play until the phone is rebooted. I have notifications turned on, and it vibrates and gives a visual notification just fine. It's just the notification ringtone. All other notification ringtones work fine and notifications volume is turned up to full.
Any ideas how to fix this?
FIX: TURN OFF SMS IN GOOGLE HANGOUTS
Thanks!
Good to know! Thanks for updating with the solution!

Screen on vs screen off notifications

I generally have vibration off and sound on for my notifications. There's different alerts for sms, email1 and email2. All work relatively well with the screen off (usually received withing 5-60 seconds of sending, depending on time of day).
The issue is when the screen is on. In this state, I don't need to hear any sounds. Really all that's needed is headsup and/or status bar notifications.
How do I make this happen?
Apps in question: Google voice (for sms and vm) and aquamail.
