Turning off iPhone SMS Notifications

    I have an iPhone 3GS and while I like it, one feature I'm not mad about is when I get a text message, it pops up with a preview of some of the text.

    Is there any way to turn this off?

    I don't mind getting a notification to say that I have a new message, but I don't really want the persons name and a short preview of their text to appear.

    I wouldn't even mind if the notification was turned off completely and I only knew I had texts when I went to the home screen and see a number on the messages icon.

    My iPhone is unlocked with BlackRain as well if that makes any difference.

    you can turn off the text preview by going to Settings / Messages. Since you're jailbroken, something like bitesms will give u greater control over these options, like the ability not to show the persons name etc...it costs a few dollars....but worth it imo though
