I've searched but have found nothing.
Is there an app that will allow you to assign different notifications based on who is sending you a SMS?
Chompsms can do that, press the msg and hold ntil option pops up...then scroll and asign ring

I've been using Handcent sms and I was hoping that it could handle it. Oh well. Looks like I will need to change apps.
ringo pro also works to assign sms tones custom leds and vibe patterns without needing any oths mms.apk even works with the default mms
Pretty sure handcent can do it. Open up a message from the person and click the top right settings icon.
Missed Call (at least the donate version) does this as well, I used to use Ringo, but once Missed Call got the feature I never looked back.

Bump, anyone

I was just about to ask the same question! No matter what I do, the screen turns on when I receive a text message, I don't want this to happen. I am on JM1.. Is it a bug? Do any of the later firmwares suffer from this?
I use launcher pro but its have just the standard slide to unlock lock screen.
Driving me crazy also!

It's not a bug, it's a feature
sorry butt whyyyy , whyyyy , whyyyy you think that this is a bug ???
Most other Android phones have an option to stop that happening, for instance my gf's HTC desire. Several of the SMS programs, e.g. SMS popup, handcent, and chompSMS all have options to not light up the screen when receiving a text message, and on the desire, it honours those options - on the galaxy, it doesn't.
What is the point in the screen lighting up when you receive a message? If it's in your pocket, you won't see it so its just a waste of battery.

I'm seeing as an advantage because SGS does not have notification LED. If I left it on my desk, at least the light will catch my attention, if I didn't hear the notification tone.
Hey guys, I figured it out. You must use a program called auto starts. Then completely disable all stock messaging app instances. I am currently using handcent and everything is working perfect.

There is an led notifications hack that will turn our keys into notification leds

Even better, search market for "noled"
Has been created by some xda folk I believe.

Hello all,
I am looking for an app/mod to allow the notification led to remain on instead of blinking when receiving an SMS/email.
As it is the led is just about useless and I keep missing messages. I can't have sound or vibration on. My blackberry, Droid and Droid x all allowed this, amazing HTC is so limited.
Thank you,

I would be happy with the ability to show different colors for different things like my OG droid did. Blue for text messages, green for app related things like Wordfeud, etc.
How do you make the screen come on when you receive an message, SMS or email, when your in vibrate or silent mode. My iPhone did this.

I am pretty sure Handcent SMS does this. I know it will pop up the screen when you get a text.

I use SMS PopUp, When you receive a text message your screen awakens with the message and a option to reply, close or to delete. Works great. The most important thing you have to remember is when setting the app up you must shut the stock text message notification off.
just out of curiosity, wouldnt that kill the battery with the screen lighting up all day long?
I would like this too. The LED blinks way to fast for me to even notice if I have a message. I rather it just stays on or at least blinks slower.

Anyone ask him to do one for the Bolt?
does anyone know if it's possible to get more colors out of the led then the standard orange/green to specify types of notifications like blue for text message?
Check out Light Flow in the market. It works too.

I was ecstatic about this until i downloaded it and saw I could select green, orange, and dark orange aka stock.
I have not tested SMS popup with my new Thunderbolt (just got today ) but it reeked havoc on my DInc.
So I used the following two apps, while there was no popup, they worked amazingly.
For the led notification light:
Blink
Message notification reminder:
Easy Reminder
I would post links directly to the apps but I do not have permission yet (need 8 posts)

Try blink from the market, i have not tried it myself yet but it worked with my last phone.
Edit: nevermind just realized the post above mine mentioned this already and I just tried it and the only color it would work for is green.
i use "noled" and it turns the screen on very dim tho, with a little sms box that floats around, u can use it for emails missed calls charging etc..
Yeah it looks like we're restricted hardwarewise
now that's a shame!

Download and use GO SMS or Handcent from the android market. It may do it - they have a lot of extra settings like that. Disable the built in sms app's notifications.
This should be in the general forum, it's not development.
chomp sms comes with a pre-selected sent tone different from incoming
Here's one of those "how do I do this with Tasker?" questions...
I've got my SMS app set to show a preview of an incoming text. That's fine normally, but at night I use "Night Clock" on my phone as my alarm clock, and if I get a text it pops up a preview, which both blocks the time shown and creates a brighter screen that is annoying. I've already got a "night time" Tasker profile that handles volumes and notifications, so there's no audible effect, but I'd like to not get the preview during that same time. Anyone have any idea how to disable the text message preview when this profile is active? The message app is Verizon's message+, btw.
Thanks.

Does Do Not Disturb block visual notifications?

I would say that belongs to app feature. Maybe you can try to have Tasker auto dismiss it, but it will still show up first.

DnD does not block the notification. And auto-dismissing it would be fine. Now I need to figure out how to do that. Thanks!

yeah from what I understand DnD would just disable sounds and lights, what an app tries to show is something else. Maybe you can can have Tasker detects the popup and tap to dismiss it. You can also try the AutoInput plugin.
Ahhhh, auto dismissing notifications is easy!
Use AutoNotification - it's a fantastic app that's part of a set of tools.

You can do SO much with them. With tis app, all you'll do is monitor for new non-persistent notifications, then dismiss them.
One thing I use it for is when I unlock my phone, and I have a new SMS, Whatsapp, or email, the notification shade slides down so that I have easy access to them.
I did try out AutoNotification and it worked for me. I intercept the new message notification then, if do not disturb is on (nighttime setting), I send the back button, which dismisses the pop-up. Cool.
Thanks!
