I've read on the Buoyancy thread that BLN does not work for text messages. This happened to me too, and after some research, I've found that this is linked to the fact that the screen turns on when a text message is received in the stock messaging app. BLN Control does NOT work when the screen turns on and goes back off, it behaves like the notification event has already taken place. See

We seem to have a similar issue here. Google and it will give you more examples of this problem.
Possible fixes:
1). Use a third party solution like Go SMS Pro or Handcent and make sure the "Screen On" setting is disabled in notifications. Disable all notifications in Stock messaging app.
2). Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1369340 (I haven't tried this apk, I don't like the stock app anyway). I don't know if this is different from the cm7 mms.apk floating around which is causing the FCs.
Hope this helps, and my apologies if this has been mentioned elsewhere and this post is redundant.

I've found that I seem to prefer the stock htc messaging app over any others so far. When I use sense-less roms, I use GO SMS. Right now I'm trying to stick to stock messaging app as to maintain the sense look and feel across my device.
Everything seems good in the stock messaging app except one thing, I want the screen to turn on when I receive an sms message. Just so I can have a visual cue if I cannot hear/feel my phone when it's on vibrate. I've looked through all the settings I can think of but cannot find anything.
Is there a way to just make the screen light up for say 30 seconds with a preview of the text with the stock message app?

With the stock messaging app, no. Not that I have found anyways. Now...you can use SMSPopup. This is almost all the features you would find within GoSMS, but uses the stock app. Basically, it just adds extra features through it's own program, but for use on the stock app. Check it out, you'll probably like it a lot.
Hello guys.
I'm having a problem about getting double sms notifications.
You should know that, i disabled everything on "Stock SMS" settings.
I have Go SMS Pro(Tried Handcent Also).
My phone is rooted, running 2.2.2 Android Version.
One more thing, the notification icon is different that Go SMS and Stock SMS App. When i turn on stock sms app, the icon is totally different than this. That means it's not about Stock SMS or Go SMS Pro.

I opened the first 2 links you posted. Mine was solved by simply disabling "notifications" in my stock sms settings. Have you tried freezing the stock sms app?

Hey, guys! This is my first post on XDA, though I've been lurking around for a while.
I'd like your help with something. From what I've gathered on the forums, the built in backlight notification won't work with the stock MMS app because upon receiving a message it forces the screen to turn on, which uses up the one screen turn-on cycle the BLN will be active for.
Is there a way to set the BLN to stay on for multiple screen cycles? Or, alternatively, can I set the MMS app to not force the screen on? Preferably I'd like both of these things, since it's how my old phone was set up.
I'm running DJ-ICS Plus 2.0, if that helps at all.
Thanks in advance, and thanks for having me
If you buy BLN Control Pro from the market, it should let you set up the notifications the way you want.
You have to use different messaging app for BLN to work. Can't use stock messaging app. There is no way around it that I know off.

Some roms offer it, maybe just the t989 ones I cant remember which ones offer that support.
Download SMS popup. Set that up, disable notification in your stock messaging app. SMS pop up is not a stand alone app. It works with your msg app. That's how you can bypass the screen from coming on. There are a couple threads that go more into detail.

I used to have my phone give me a 3 quick vibrate pattern for incoming text and other notifications. (System Settings>>Sound)
But now I don't have any of those options (or can't find it). Anyone know off hand where that is or how to get it back?
I believe I may have switch Messaging programs....think i flashed either AOKP or CM10 and was on the other previously.
If that's what made that change I'll flash back if someone knows.
I'm currently on Eclipse build 4...with justin860's 4.1.2 inverted apps.
thanks,
I'm on Jelly Bean's Rom Build 6 and I have the same issue (and I believe stock has this issue too). There doesn't seem to be any way to get a different vibration pattern for text messages on stock messaging app that I've found. :/
It is the cm10 mms. Inside there you get the choice, plus it has the quickview quick reply option popup which is real nice.
is it possible to flash cyanogenmod 10 sms app (or is there an apk?) without the full rom? edit: yes it is but it doesn't work on the rom I use (bean's rom build 6)

yeah I'd think it would work on any aosp rom like aokp or cm10 ....but not a tw rom like beans.
I made a fix for this problem (I'd post directly to my reddit thread but I can't yet post outside links so I'll just copy the text):
"So one of my biggest annoyances (pretty much my only annoyance) when I first got my GS3 was that the SMS notification for the stock SMS app is always a long single vibration rather than two brief ones (two differentiate it from a call vibration). I searched but all the solutions I could find involved battery-eating third party apps just for customizing notifications which I didn't want or third-party sms apps which I didn't want.
So I decided to roll my own solution. I bought Tasker and set up a new profile. Here are the instructions to set up this profile if you're new to Tasker:
Create a new profile with the [+] button.
For the Context, you want "Event" then "Phone" then "Received Text" and then click the check mark.
Then for the Task, you want "Alert" then "Vibrate Pattern." Here you have some options. You enter patterns in the format "#,#" where the first number (in milliseconds) is how long to wait before starting to vibrate, then the second is how long (in milliseconds) to vibrate for, and then you can add more to pause more and then vibrate more. I use "0,300,250,300" which means immediately vibrate for 300 milliseconds, then wait 250 milliseconds, then vibrate 300 milliseconds again.
Then just make sure you disable the vibration built into the stock sms app: go to your sms list, his the menu key, then settings, then scroll down to notification settings and uncheck "Vibrate."
And you're done!"
Anyone else have this issue? When receiving an SMS message, I will get the pop up notification and sound, but then the notification will disappear as if it has been dismissed. The message will still be unread in the Messaging app, but there will be no notification either on the phone or on my Android Wear device. Strange.
Same here. Anybody find a fix? Driving me crazy
There's an option in settings to check notification access.. probably you can review the applications there or check the notification settings for messages app.. Maybe an alternate messages app is overriding it

I haven't found anything amiss in the notification settings.
My hangouts won't notify me like it used to (on Silent, but with LED), and I've been missing text messages/gmail as well. When I turn on the lockscreen voila! all the crap you've missed. I've flipped every setting known to man. Cleared my cache from recovery. In my frustration, it seems like the only thing left is to drop this brick out the window and get something that isn't messed up by the carrier every other firmware.
Nougat sucks for me. I had to download a samsung theme, to replace the crap they did with it. I am honestly surprised that there are so few people complaining.
Strange. I never have issues with Hangouts. It's only the Samsung Messages app that self-dismisses notifications. I've tried just using Google's Android Messages or whatever they are calling it these days and I actually like it better. Unfortunately, I frequently utilize WiFi Calling/SMS and Digits for a second line and the stock Samsung app is the only text messaging I've found app that does both. This T-Mobile integration is the same reason I switched back to Samsung from my Xperia XZ and why my next phone will probably be Samsung again unless theses features ever become usable on an unlocked phone.
Okay, slightly different problem, but weird and perplexing. Running U firmware on an AT&T A. Stock Email app on mobile data only will show a badge notification for new mail, but no notification sound or light flashing. On WIFI everything works as it should. On AT&T firmware it works fine as well either way. Hmm...
