Love the Inc 4G but cannot find out how to get the screen to turn onto the lock screen when I receive an incoming text message.
Any ideas?
Using the stock messaging app but also tried SMS Pop UP and Handcent.
Thanks!
I use Go Sms, which those settings are under Notification Settings
smsAwake, it's what i use! works pretty well anyways if you like the stock messaging app
tweaks will come

I'm finding I'm missing loads of text messages & would love it if the phone would alert me repeatedly until I finally notice the sms and read it.
I have dug around the phones menus but with no luck. Not sure if I'm just missing it as I'm new to Android (loving It).
Is their a setting to enable this feature or will I just have to choose a longer/louder sms notification sound.
Thanks.
use handcent SMS, you can set how long the phone should vibrate, and I also recommend NoLED

Thanks, I'll take a look at those.
also SMS Popup, which I prefer to Handcent...
Thanks, gonna have a play around with both and see which i prefer.
SMS!Alert
You can try SMS!Alert.
Allow you to create custom alerts based on SMS messages, enter a incoming phone number and/or keyword filter, when someone sends a SMS with the keyword filter text or if incoming phone number matches, phone will display sound alert.
I am having issues with getting notifications on this phone. There is no LED noification light and I don't always hear the audible alert.
Is there a way to make the lock screen light up when a text is received? I have the stock messages and the AT&T messages installed, and neither seem to do this. It will sit there blank until I press the power button and see that something has come in.
I am using the AT&T messages for the visual voicemail, but again, open to suggestions.
Thanks.
my screen comes on when i get a text message. stock messaging app.
you can try SMS Popup and play with the settings in it to get what you want, like text message reminders and screen on/off

Mine never has, even before I installed AT&T messages.
Is there a setting that I missed?
Thanks.
Personally I'd recommend looking into Handcent. It's a much better SMS app imo and it definitely allows a screen pop to occur when the phone is asleep upon receiving a new message. A lot more customization as well.

i would prefer GO SMS PRO over handcent, but thats a personal preference.
@026TB4U, there are no settings within the stock messaging app that would enable/disable screen activation. it just works. when i get a text message and my screen is off, it comes on, shows me the slide to text, then after a few more seconds it shuts off
SMS Popup will allow you to do all kinds of things while still using the stock messaging app.
Thanks for the recommendations, I'll look into them.
What about voicemail?Do any of these handle that? How are you getting notified?
I would really like to find out why mine is not lighting up....lol

I use google voice and love it. Free visual voicemail and they even transcribe it for you. Also +1 on handcent. Been using that for a long time now and love it.
Mine wakes on a new message and gives the audible alert, if you don't have it silenced.

Ok, that's 3 people that have confirmed that my phone is not behaving correctly.
Anybody have any ideas why?
My phone wakes on incoming sms as well.

I uninstalled AT&T Messages and problem is solved.
I do wish it would stay lit longer though...lol
Since installing CleanROM 4.0 ICS, I now receive an SMS notification every time I have a Voice Mail. Does anyone know how to turn it off?
I know from the SMS app, if you press the menu button then go to settings it gives you a list that should include: Notifications, Text messages, Multimedia messages, General, Visual voicemail.
There are options to turn off the notification sound and vibrate when a voicemail arrives.

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I'm aware of that option, and have disabled it, but the issue I am having is that I am receiving text messages from Verizon telling me I have a VM, and I should install their VVM app. But that app doesn't exist/work with an ICS ROM on the Rezound.
I can't imagine no one else has run into this? Bizarre.
I'm running Clean ROM 4.3 and have never had that problem. It works like it always has, with the visual voicemail tab in the messaging app. I get a notification and I can click that or go to the messaging app and click the voicemail button.

I have just installed Chomp SMS on my samsung s2 running andyx v12 rom, its my first time using a different sms app and i do really like chomp a lot and would like to keep it, on my phone i have 2 issues though.
1. in the notifications settings i have notifications ticked and i have vibrate set to always vibrate. The problem i am having is when i get a text, i get the status bar notification but my phone doesnt vibrate at all which i have always relied on a lot when at work etc..
2. also in the notification settings there an option for screen comes on which i have ticked, it says that if the phone is off, it will come alive breifly when i get a text, but my phone isnt doing that either.
When i used the stock sms all these things worked, i have turned notifications off on my stock sms as i had read this was best so you dont get 2 notifications.
in my system settings vibrate is also set to on for notifications etc..
does anyone know what could be the issue, or are my above questions actually just the way chomp works?
thanks
james
Is there a way to disable the screen from turning on when a notification is received? When I go to pull the note out I'm either hitting random keys on a text or dialing something. Is there a way to stop that?

First things first..I assume you are sending a recieving text messages, so here is my question. What app do you use for texting handcent or go sms....
for example I use handcent ass my messaging app so in the settings of handcent this is how you disable the screen on when you receive a notification.
Setting>Notification settings>Notificaton Settings (again) >scroll down and a box will be there were you can turn on/off the screen when you receive a message using the pop up option.
Idk if this helped but.. if anything let me know what apps your using or the version of android your running. The more info you post the more we can help you. Thanks
