[SOLVED] Screen Wake Up on e-mail or SMS??? - Desire General

Is it possible for the screen to wake up when you receive an e-mail or an SMS instead of just the ringtone you hear or the led?
When I used to have an iPhone, there was an app called push notification and it'd pop up a small version of your e-mail or your sms on your screen even when your phone was in the screen lock mode/sleep mode.
Anyways, just wondering if there is a way for this kind of stuff.
Thanks

Try Handcent.

or ChompSMS.

yea. handcent got option to hv pop up notification juz like iphone.. and u can choose to dim brightness or not when received sms.
oh ya, btw, nxt time pls do not anyhow start any thread in developement.. do it in general if u are asking qn..

thanks guys. I will definitely ask it in general. I just thought there might be a tweak for rooted phones for these features to become available, that's why I posted it here.
Anyways, really thanks for the responses. What about for the e-mail notifications? Anything for that?
Thnx again

Receiving SMS messages after phone call and/or missed call

Is there a cab that can disable the SMS msg I get after a phone call or missed one?
And yes, I have searched high & low for a solution on this site & can't find it.
Thanks!
So, my situation is unique? No one else has had this issue?
It's not an sms message.. it's just a pop up... and its dependent on what rom you are using really on how you turn on and off your notifications. If you are running a custom rom like Energy or something go to their thread and ask how to disable the particular notification.
usually its settings\sounds and notifications\ then go to the notifications tab and in there you can change what your phone does for different events.

You want to turn off the "missed call" icon on the task bar? I don't recall anyone requesting this before...

No, he wants to turn of the message that comes in with details about the missed call (date/time).
The missed call notification was off. Actually, it shows as a SMS message with the phone number that called or the call that I made. It definitely seems like a ROM issue - just flashed to Jackos' (so far perfect IMO) ROM & haven't had that issue at all. Thanks - I think I've found the solution.
Hey guys, the damn notification is back again! What the hell is that?
Are you using Youmail for your Voicemail?

How to wake the screen up when u receive an email?

Hi guys,
Is there an apparently out there or some sort of a tweak to wake the screen up when u receive an email. A pop up notification of some sort basically.
I'd appreciate if someone can give me some info on this.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
by default i dont think its possible to wake the screen up when you receive an email as it doesnt seem very useful as the screen uses far more power than say a notificatin, sound or vibration. These three can be configured in mail setting, from the android market and appbrain there doesnt seem to be a good app for email wakeup (apart from gmail) but there is for sms.
I am not too sure if the tasker app can do this, i am unaware of any tweaks which can do the screen wake up trigger.
there is this

but it only works with k9 mail
thanks guys, I will give it a shot to the app you mentioned.

[Q] Disable SMS Delivery Reports Notifications?

Hi,
Just moved from the Desire to the Desire HD and there is one thing that is bugging the hell outta me. I like to have delivery reports turned on for SMS messages, and on the Desire, this was perfect. To see a delivery report, I just held on the message and tapped Delivery report. It would show, Delivered, Failed or Pending. Nice. Non-intrusive.
NOW, on the Desire HD, I've enabled Delivery Reports, BUT, I now get a notification in the Status Bar area and a notification alert, like a new message has come in.
Does anyone know, cause I can't seem to find out how, to disable the Notification of Delivery Reports? I want the reports, but not the "new message" like notification. I hope someone can help, cause in all honesty, this is a deal breaker for me with this phone!
Just moved to DHD fro Desire myself and I cant seem to be able to turn this off..any pointers please.
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, I've never been able to find a way to turn it off.. so it's an all or nothing case!

This is a shame one HTC, if features like this can be taken out if it was already existing in older devices... not to talk of the low Speaker volume...Moving for me seem to be a bad decision.
I have SMS delivery reports turned on but get no notification icon.
This could be because I use SMS Popup app and have turned notifications in the HTC SMS settings (otherwise I would get double notifications).
The main purpose of SMS Popup is to show a pop-up of your SMS (funnily enough!) as you get them, but you can turn that off and just use it to customise your notifications icons and various other tasks. It's very unintrusive and in over 18 months of using it on different phones I've never had a problem with it.
Might be worth a try for you guys...

Also good for those suffering the dual HTC notification problem.
So... you have delivery reports turned on in HTC's settings right?

I'm pretty much the same. I played around with the Popup part, but don't like it.
In the "Default Notifications" settings in SMS Popup I have the following set:
Show a Popup - OFF
Enable Notifications - ON
Notify on Call - ON
Vibrate - ON (set at 0,350)
Blink LED - ON (Set at "Normal" Blink rate)
I've also turned on Reminders as I tend to miss messages
It's working perfect for me!

Brilliant! It's such a good little app. I originally tried Handcent, Chomp and a few other SMS apps but none were as lightweight, unobstrusive and reliable as SMS Popup. It's so easy to forget you even use it.
Great idea! Thanks a lot !!!!!!!!
Million times TNX for this...
Not ideally working whit sense 3 lock screen, but everything is better then that irritating sound and notification at status bar for report. Why HTC make this idiotic report after that so cool on Desire?? WHY??
Did any of you, or any of developers here on forum try to edit Mms app (Mms.apk)?
I try to find this in it, because if you turn off HTC notification then you no get sms on lock screen. I guess it's in some of these files:
com\android\mms\ui\DeliveryReportAdapter.java
com\android\mms\ui\DeliveryReportItem.java
com\android\mms\ui\DeliveryReportActivity.java
Any one have idea how to find this? I use sense 3.0 Mms.apk
Me too, no clue .. sigh
I dont want to use that popup app, I chose android because of the notification system. How come there is still no fix to this annoying issue?

Although not an elegant solution to your problem (such as go here and uncheck this), have you ever tried Handcent from the market? Tons of customizations. When I 1st got my epic (about a year now) the thing that drove me crazy was text notifications during a phone call! Someone recommended Handcent, and I've never looked back since then!
If you go that route, after you install, make sure you disable notifications in your stock messaging app - or else you'll get both the stock and Handcent telling you that you have a new message.
Check haptic feedback settings under Display. You can turn down the intensity. I also notice GB's haptics are over-zealous.
As stated by the root, check that, and also check the app's settings as well. The app overrides the built in haptic feedback toggle.

****blushing**** and even embarrassed to reply, but in appreciation to those who have responded ... it was the app notifications that was the culprit. sorry for wasting your time.

New to me SIII , have a question

Hello again everyone.
I have a question about the screen staying on after a missed phone call, missed texts and emails. Is there a way to not make the screen turn on when you get a text, email, or miss a call, just the led light is good enough for me? I have it set for 10 mins to stay on but don't want it to stay on if I miss a text, email ect if I am not by the phone, my old phone right before this one had a setting that I can shut off the wake feature (Pretty sure its called the wake phone feature)..
Hopefully I am making sense here! Thanks all, you guys are very helpful on here.
It can be done, but youd have to modify one of the system apks I think.

Have you tried using the Blocking Mode which is built into these Jelly Bean roms,
the blocking mode is under "settings" and it's easy to find.
It allows you to disable notifications and phone calls within the whitelist which you
can create and can set certain times of the day for disabling the notifications.
Give it a try!
