Hey guys,
I’m having a few issues getting the LED notifications on my Xperia S to work exactly how I want them to… its not surprising really seeing as though I have 3 apps which minitor my notifications – and two of them have control of the LED notification light.
What I would like to have is:
- LED notification light blinking when I have a new SMS or have a missed call
- MissedIt notifications for missed calls and new SMS displayed on WidgetLocker lock screen
- SMS Popup for popup SMS notifications with quick reply feature.
So…using these 3 apps (Light Flow + MissedIt + SMS Popup) I was hoping I would be able to achieve the desired results… not so.
It seems that while Light Flow and SMS Popup are running together, the notification LED cannot be used. If I disable LightFlow… I cant get SMS Popup to use the notification LED for SMS only (no missed call LED). If I disable SMS Popup… I can get the LED to alert me for both missed calls and new SMSs (but no popup window for new SMS).
I was just wondering what everyone else does. It seems there is a conflict between to two apps – do you guys have any alternative suggestions?
Thanks for any help.

Set "alternate off monitoring " on in the lightflow sms notification. That should work.

The solution is real pathetic but working for me.. for SMS only
Install GO SMS Pro & enable two things..!
1. Screen On.. when receive a notification
2. Uncheck the "Disable other message notification" in Receive Settings
by this u will receive two notifications,, in statusbar i.e of GO SMS pro and Stock App ... but there will be LED blink
i am still trying different things.. but the above pocedure do give the LED Notification on SMS
Using the quick reply option on any of the popular sms apps (Go, Handcent, Pansi, even SMS Popup) results in the LED continuing to blink. The only way to get it to stop is either open the messaging app or pulldown the notification bar. I have disabled the notifications as well as LED for the stock messaging app. In the sms apps I have selected the "closing popup marks read" options as well. I've read around and I've seen that it seems to be a general problem with the way sense interacts with these apps.
Any ideas?
I have LED turned off for SMS... I use Handcent and a app called SMS Popup.
When I get SMS messages, most of the time, I just close them in the SMS Popup. If I hit Reply and reply, the LED never goes on.
Is there a benefit to having two sms apps that do the same thing?

My Galaxy S3 doesn't give any New SMS notification on the Screen Lock.
Why is that?
How to make it show New SMS notification?
It shows notification of missed calls on the lock screen and also the blue LED blinks,
but no notification for new SMS?
open messaging app--setting--make sure notification ticked.
so i'm a hancent fan... i like the lockscreen pop up messages for new incoming text messages. i usually reply from them as well.
when doing that on the inc4g i've noticed the notification led continues to blink at me like i have an unread message. i'm assuming i can turn off the led notification completely in handcent (i do not want to do that)... or wait for the handcent devs to fix this?
I use handcent as well. I do not have that issue. Did you turn off all notifications in the stock app? Uncheck them before unchecking notifications

I don't think it's a Handcent issue. I use GoSMS and I'm seeing the same issue, although it seems to be sporadic.
All notifications from the stock messaging app are turned off.

I've notified it doing it sometimes with Chomp too. Pulling the notification bar down turns off the LED for me.
yes, opening the notification bar clears it - which defeats the time savings of replying from the popup on the lock screen
i also have turned off the stock notifications.
thanks - at least it's nice to see i'm not the only one with this issue...
speaking of notification bar - on my old inc i always hit the menu button, then notification instead of dragging the bar down from the top of the screen. does anyone know of a way to make a shortcut or something on the inc4g? only way i can find to open the notification bar is to actually drag it from the top of the screen.... is there any other way?
It's included in Viper Rom, but you'll need root to change that.
There is an app called Flash Notification 2 & this has options where you can pick a color & the screen lights up / flashes when you get text messages & phone calls
Now what I am wondering is are there any more apps with this type of feature ? I like the idea of it but I am not looking for a flashing screen screen but instead something like where the screen just stays on with the color of my choice until I respond to it & nothing weird in the middle. Im trying to notice new text messages & phone calls & voice mails through visual means instead of audio means
