To clarify a bit: no, you can't get notifications this way right out of the box with a stock or AOSP-based ROM. But there are apps from the Market that will give you pop-up text notifications. You can use GOSMS as the other posters suggested, but if you don't want to use a different messaging app, there are also apps that will take over the notifications while you continue to use the stock messaging app to read and compose your texts. Search the Market for keywords "SMS notify popup" or similar and you should find what you're looking for.
Along with Go SMS there's also handcent sms which is similar.
If you want exact iphone replica messaging, then try chomp sms. I've been using it from a while and I love it.

First off im a complete HTC nood, never used sense before, and never had to use an SMS app because every other phone I owned had a pretty decent messengin app preloaded... Not so much the case here huh?? Does anyone know how to turn the stock SMS off without rooting? Is there a way? I'm trying to use handcent or how ever you spell it and I'd like to only have that app notify me when I get a text...
TIA

for popups you need to use something like handcent
Yeah I understand the alternative SMS pop ups but is there any thing to have pop up on the stock SMS
Sent from my SGH-T849 using XDA Premium App
I've never used it but there is an app in the market "sms popup"
Does anyone know of a messaging app that lets you text a group of people, and then see their responses all in one thread?
Currently, when I send the same text to a group of people, when they respond, it goes into their individual chat thread history, but I want to see all the responses in one thread...
Thanks!
I think beluga does this iirc, but I'm not sure its still around (got bought by facebook a while back). I could be wrong, as I didn't use it much since most of the people I message won't give up SMS. ...

Is there any way to customize GO SMS or Handcent SMS to have it show the contact photos in the conversation itself? (Like on Stock Android)
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I don't know about Handcent, but I can't find the option in Go SMS Pro.
The pictures must be already placed under the contact in the phone book. Then they will show up. (Gosms)

I was referring to the conversation itself (bubble or list) . In stock in the convo. Itself the image appears next to the text of whomever sent it

They show up just fine for me. I am using handcent but I used to use go SMS and it worked fine as long as i didn't sync Facebook. Syncing FB caused issues
^ nice member! ..... sorry I misunderstood ur question.

I tried messaging app with a longer text message and it converts it to MMS. How do I disable this one? Can't seem to find it under messaging settings.

This +1
Can't figure this one out. I think its as soon as the text become over 3 text lengths worth it converts to MMS.
I hope we could find a way in solving this. I'm not really used in abbreviating words that's why my messages would reach more than 3sms.
