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

I have diamond tweak and wake on sms is disabled (by default even)... and even the registry key is set to disable wake on sms, but the phone still wakes up and shows the screen when i get a text...
I'm guessing it has to do with the sprint stuff on the phone but i don't see what would have changed it... (it has done this since i got the phone so it hasn't CHANGED... i just mean something that would have made it not work as intended)... maybe it's checking a different key?...
Does anyone know a way to make sure the screen doesn't come up when i get a text?... I just want it to ring / vibrate... even the little circle button light is fine... but not the screen
You don't want the device to wake (i.e. turn on the screen/backlight) or you don't want the device to show the text message itself?
If you've used the registry editor to disable wake on sms, I'm guessing you're trying to resolve the other issue. Under sounds and notifications, where you change your SMS tones, is a box for displaying incoming text in a pop up window. hope this helps
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.
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.
I use wechat, which is a instant message apps. I saw someone reports same problem with google hangouts and whatsapp.
The problems some time the new notification would show up in second screen just fine, but some times it still pop up a heads up notification.
So I used adb to disable headsup notification for my phone. Now it shows notification in second screen sometimes, while other times no notification at all except the vibration and icon in status bar.
This problems also affect other apps such as google inbox.
How can I just have every notification goes to second screen?
I feel like this is some kind of software bug since it shows sometimes but not all the times.
Also, when I play games which is in fullscreen, the second screen became the one for the lockscreen.
i.e. it only shows time and date etc, instead of recent apps.
Is there anyway to change this?
So I tried again.
It turns out that second screen does not work with immersive apps.
and when I recieve 2 instant messages in a row, the second screen would show.. I wonder why.
The only place where you can choose to show at second screen vs pop up notification is the LG's MESSAGE app

Same here :/ unless I get two notifications in a row, they only show in the main screen. I thought all the notifications were supposed to show up in the second screen...
On the S6, when I swipe down from the top of the screen, the giant notification window shows up. This is marginally annoying normally since my home page background is 14% neutral gray, but EXTREMELY annoying at night when I'm reading on the tablet and accidentally cause the notifications to display... My bookreader is a dark-mode setup, and the notifications are blinding white when they display (yes, the screen brightness is about 10-12, but compared to the reader it's blinding)...
I've currently got the tablet in Night mode, which makes the giant notification thing black, so it's not as annoying, but it still keeps getting displayed 'cause of hand position and tablet orientation. And Night mode isn't great for "normal" use so I much prefer something that'll actually help with the notification display.
SO....
Is there a way, even if I have to use a different launcher (I'll need to know which one) to CHANGE the background color of the notification thing (and hopefully the navigation bar background)? I tried Nova Launcher, and it has things that SEEM like they should do something, but they don't change the huge white blob that appears when I swipe down.
Is there a way to CHANGE how notifications get displayed - turn OFF the swipe down from the top of the screen and use something else? If so, how do I set this up? "Do Not Disturb" mode doesn't seem to help.
Is there a way to COMPLETELY turn OFF notifications so swiping does nothing. I can't FIND anything in settings, but I figure I'm missing the "turn off notifications" switch.
I'm also interested in what answers may come. For me it's just about the color; even though I'm dark-themed everywhere using "Swift Installer - Themes & color engine", it doesn't theme the notification panel. Since the theme works everywhere else (even on system apps), this makes me think that 'notifications' is a special case, for some reason.
Curious to hear from others.
Have you tried QuickStar inside of GoodLock app from the Samsung Store? there are lots of mods you can do in there like change the color of the notification pull down.
Thanks. That works pretty well. I can change all the colors on the notification so at least the notification is a black background.
Status bar at the bottom is still bright but that's smaller than the big notification thing. Definitely makes me miss the old Android 6 thing where it just put a couple tiny icons at the top and I had to specifically hit them to see notifications. Never accidentally opened the notifications.
Is there any way to CHANGE the activation for the notifications so they DON'T show up when I don't want them to?
