Message preview trouble.

Newbie

So, after the 5.0 update,

I can no longer preview text messages on my lock screen, even though I have the settings to do so.

Another bug is that my notification vibration pattern will not change off of the default. It's all one long vibration bug. Very frustrating...

Anyone experiencing same?

I am glad you got your message preview to work for you Kilomodo! If you go to Settings>Sound and notifications>Select Vibrations you should be able to personalize the vibration. Please keep me updated.

We want to make sure your phone is in tip top shape Kilomodo! What is the make/model of your device. I can also see what we can do about the vibration pattern on your phone. Does this happen on phone calls or messages?

I solved the Message Preview problem. There was a new setting in the

lollipop update.

The vibration setting is still a problem. It's the default long buzz for

notifications; Calls and Text messages.

My phone is a Galaxy S5, I bought it new about three weeks ago.

Thanks again!

Amber,

I have tried personalizing the vibration pattern that way, as well as

creating a custom pattern, but nothing seems to work. I have vibrations set

to heartbeat pattern; and I have set up contacts to use this vibration

pattern as well. The same long buzz is still in effect.

Additionally, my friend's Galaxy S5 is doing the same after the recent

lollipop update.

Any suggestions? (:

Hmm. I appreciate you trying those steps Kilomodo! Have you downloaded any new applications to the phone? Please put the phone on http://spr.ly/6588A8H0 safe mode and retry.

I have downloaded a few new apps. I suppose some third-party software could

be affecting the vibrations, but disabling the apps through safe mode is

not working either. Same situation as before.

I uninstalled all third party apps, removed all updates from apps, and

nothing is fixing this situation.

Kilomodo I appreciate your cooperation so far. Have you backed up your contacts and pictures with the Verizon Cloud or in some other way? Now that you have removed all 3rd party apps, you want to make sure you don't have auto-restore turned on and then do a master reset of your phone. http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-104036/
Once that has been completed please keep me posted with the results
