Hey guys,
Been trying to figure out if there's a setting or a simple app to install to turn on the screen when I get a text?
Sms pop up isn't really my flavor. I don't like the the pop ups and I'm happy with the Sense lock screen sms notification.
Essentially I want to keep everything how it is in a stock fashion, but just have the screen turn on when I get a message.
Thanks.

is there anyway to make it popup and automatically turn on the screen like handcent? Handcent misses alot of text and this app works better but doesnt actually turn the screen on with the pop up.

Sure, it has, go to "Preferences"--"Notification Settings"--"Popup Windows Settings", enable "Unlock screen"
will you be adding led notifications to go sms anytime soon?
I use the app "No Lock" so that I have no Lock Screen (time wasting and useless).
my problem is that my screen does not light up when I get an SMS when lock screen is off. if I switch lockscreen back on it works.
Any idea for a workaround?

I have the same question. Thanks
love the app
I love the app. I've tried both handcent and chomp and they send my msgs multiple times to my contacts and this doesn't! Thanks. Hope it continues to be do so well.
My only problem is that I cannot get the contact pics to work.

Thanks so much for the great app.
Ok guys please post all questions in the thread that they concern
I assume that this is the way the Sensation or HTC phones are? The screen does not turn on when receiving an SMS when using the native app?
Any apps that I could use to make the screen turn on when I receive an SMS apart from switching messaging apps?
P.S.: Has a solution for the 5 minute LED notification been found?
Thanks so much.

But then what pops up is SMS popup's app right? I just want the screen to turn on as I turn it on usually and see the message on the lockscreen...
I'm sure there's an app for that, but usually when I use it, the popup is gone and the screen will be on and the message In the lockscreen.

Hi guys, I was just wondering is there a way to change the settings in the HTC stock messagin app to stop the full text of messages appearing in the notification bar?
It's rather embarassing if I'm showing someone something on the phone and then a luvvy duvvy text from the missus pops in...

Hello I just received the HTC Sensation yesterday and this phone is amazing. I have one small issue though that I haven't been able to find using search.
I'm currently running Android Revolution 3.0.1 and whenever I receive a text while the screen is off, the notification rings but my screen remains off. I spent an hour already looking through settings and other options on "how to enable the screen to turn on when I receive a text" and I can't seem to find it.
Where/what is the option to enable it? Any help would be appreciated thank you.
Can't do it with the stock sms. Go sms and I think sms popup, maybe others from the market can do this.

+1 for SMS Popup
Use Tasker.
I also use SMS Popup, great app. Answer your sms messages right from the pop up. Lots of good settings to fool around with.
try handcent? whatsapp doesn't work too. kinda disappointed.
I'm really really used to MIUI and other roms that will wake the phone to show me a preview of the text recieved, even if the phone is locked. I tried using MiLocker, and the screen doesn't wake, nor does the SMS icon show me a preview of the message.
I'd really just like the screen to wake when I get a text.
Can anyone help? TIA.
I don't think so. Handcent is always an option.

Yeah I would use it if it wasn't so damn ugly.
You can set the lock screen style to Productivity. This won't automatically turn on the screen, but it will show you incoming previews of SMS, as well as email, appointments and calls (you can turn off any of those you like).
Get an app called SMS pop up, its perfect!

Does Android have an elegant/intuitive messaging app with Emoji support? All of these messaging apps are so goddamned ugly... Even chompSMS isn't attractive to me anymore
Hey that Notifier Pro IS a really good app for those of us coming from the iPhone that liked the IOS pop ups on the screen.
I just DL'd the free version to try it out and with the screen off, if you get a message, text email ect, the screen turns on for a few seconds and you get a short banner type message with a contact pic. Pretty cool.
