I just "upgraded" my Galaxy S4 from Kitkat to Lollipop and have discovered a change that seriously bothers me.
I send and receive a lot of SMSs each day while working and the process I've always used was to type the message, hit send and then just leave the phone sitting on my desk while I get back to work. The screen blanks out 30 seconds later.
The problem in Lollipop is that if the messaging app is open there is no notification tone when a new message comes in. This means I will often miss a reply that happens within that 30 second window before the screen blanks.
I tried Textra, but that has the same behaviour.
Does anyone have a solution? This one thing is enough for me to want to go back to Kitkat, even though I much prefer many other aspects of Lollipop.
