Anyone else notice this? If messages (default touchwiz) is opened, there is no text tone notification. Is that a setting somewhere?
I noticed this too. Dont like it...
Nope but it does vibrate you can also turn on pop up and it should pop right up
BAD ASS NOTE 4
Yeah but I need it to make a noise if the messaging app is open and a new text arrives. LOL - I need that!
There's no notification because the phone is smart enough to know your already in the app. Lol

Is there anyway to disable the screen turn on when recieving text message?

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.

Every time i get a txt, Handcent pops up and I get the same text like 5-6 times.. sometimes more.. my friend sent me a "ok" text yesterday and I got it 10 times within 20 mins.
does ANYONE know how to stop this?

hey there!
Normally I always come to a solution, but this one is hard... while it seems easy.
Been searching the web for a while now, but no one seems to have this exact problem.
Problem:
Everytime I receive a Text/SMS message, i get notified by a white envelope in the notification bar. it says: 'New Message(s)' with beneath it 'You have an unread message'. So then I click on the icon/text and my message app (handscent SMS) launches. I can reply etc. but when i return to my home screen (doesn't matter if i tick the 'back' button of the 'home' button) the white envelope is still there. So i have to open the notification bar and press 'clear'. ****@NOY!NG!!
Thing is that I don't know which app notifies me, so i can't turn it off! I already ticked-off all the notification boxes (and sounds) is the system message app as well as in handscent sms. But that damn white envelope is still there (with notification sound)!
I figured out one thing; I can change the notification sound of the d*mn white envelope just bij changing the 'General' notification sounds at the settings menu.
So then I thought maybe is the notification from android itself. Does anyone ever had the same problem? suggestions to fix it? thanks
you would drive me crazy!
peace

I don't use GO sms, I use Handcent SMS.
I just get 4-6 txts in less than a minute. It's so annoying. I wish i could stop it.
Ok, the reason i ask is i get the same thing i get about 5 or 8 texts always the same text i think it's something two do with the default sms program conflicting with third party app

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 also like this

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!
There are 2 things bugging me at this point and want to know if i am just overlooking the solution. The first thing is can we remove the auto brightness slider from the Notification Bar? I have looked and searched all over i cant seem to remove it. Second thing is is there any way to stop the screen from turning on when i receive i new text message using the default messages apps? I usually dont use default messaging apps however i want to use the edge lighting and people edge notifications. Anyone figured out how to get rid of these 2 issues?

Unfortunately the brightness slider can not be removed as it's built into the framework, also no way to disable screen wake with stock text messaging app (until we get root if it ever happens)

Text Message screen - Have you tried going into the text message app, swipe left, under Advanced, Settings, uncheck Enable Popup? My screen does not wake when I get a text.

I have to second this - my screen doesn't light up when I get a message ... BUT I also use the Samsung SMS app and not the Verizon one. I don't even care if the VZW one is better, I refuse to use Big-Red branded apps.
As for the brightness slider, it appears this is now baked into the framework without any option of removing. I'm sure it would be an easy fix if we had root, but you'll have to be patient on that front.
Might be a dumb question but how do I get these alerts to not pop right up on my screen I want to be notified with a sound/vibrate and the notification light but not pop u for anyone to see.

Open messages and go into settings. Under Notification, uncheck pop up display
