You are correct and I apologize for not stating my phone is a Samsung S4 SCH-970 I contacted Samsung via email, and the response was a pre-scripted answer, I cannot turn off the missed call and new text message banner notifications on the lock screen, this is the new standard and it is...

After reading all of the reviews and holding out for months by denying the download of 4.4.2 I eventually received the download, I postponed it for as long as I could then eventually I realized this was a losing battle. I took the advice of a guru and before I updated to 4.4.2 I removed my SD...

Lockscreen Policy works for me, it returns the unit to what it was before the 4.3 updates on my previous S3, now all I get is the tiny little icon notification.

I have an S4 US Cellular, Completely Stock I installed the free app Lockscreen Policy it allows me to completely shut off the lockscreen text and missed call notifications It basically operates like the previous android version, I just get the tiny icon for messages and missed calls It was the...

I received an S4 as a replacement for an S3 that had serious reception issues; on face value it appeared to be an improvement, however there are some things I cannot modify that are beyond annoying. 1. The new pop up text and missed call notifications on the lock screen, I can change the preview...

I did change that particular setting, but unfortunately it does not change the new notification, it is an incredibly large icon and annoying, and when there is a missed call it stills says who it was from, the purpose of a lock screen is privacy, that is now gone, I will be getting a new S4 next...

Unfortunately the S4 is my next phone, Samsung has admitted mine is one of the problem phones and they are replacing it free with an S4, so I will see what happens next, I am out nothing for the upgrade and if it does the same thing, I will consider an I-Phone.

Easier than copy and paste, it is just one of the similar issues individuals are seeing after the 4.3 update, I also had the ghost downloading, the battery life is diminished and I have connectivity problems with the net. wi-fi has to be searched for when I change locations when it was...

If you have read all of the issues associated with 4.3 you will wish you never upgrade.

Interesting when it the assumption that the hatred is derived from high expectation’s, my only expectation was that my galaxy functions built into the phone actually function, my hatred is derived from a complete failure of the products claims, not expectations that did not in fact exist.

Conundrum Once again I am at an impasse, having an S3 which the phone in and of itself I enjoy all of the functions, the ability to manage files, photos, etc. The only real issue I have ever had is reception, I am on my third phone as the first two were replaced by Samsung, the reception issues...

Worst mistake I ever made. Purchased the S3 on December 1, 2012, should have returned it the next day, I live in a rural area, I am dropping calls at the rate of five a day, I have zero reception in my house, I went to a larger city and in a super wal mart I have zero reception, the phone has...

Clear the messaging recent contacts buffer Samsung Galaxy S3 Okay so you have erased all of the sent / received text messages Now when you start a new message and select contacts on the recent tab all of the contacts are still there, secondary apps like history eraser do not clear the logs, and...

Complete disaster and possibly the final edict in a long list of issues since purchasing the Galaxy S3 (US Celluar) Ordinarily I do not take the time to submit reviews, I am of the opinion that products are what they are, none are flawless and none will ever live up to the advertisements or...
