Guest chris9181 Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 gives a visual alert for a text. At the moment if I hear my audiable text notification I swipe phone to unlock and just see text scrolling across notification bar at top. I want to be able to swipe to unlock phone and then see a box or something saying who the text is from and an option to open it. Even better if the picture of the contact can appear but that is not essential. At the moment I am clicking 3 separate times to view a text, 1. swipe to unlock 2. pull down notification bar 3. click on text to view Is this standard for everybody? Any ideas/known Apps please?

I use Handcent SMS which is free from the Market. http://www.androlib.com/android.applicatio...xtsms-jCzz.aspx It has the feature of a popup notification, where you can give an instant reply Edited January 23, 2010 by robot1000

Guest robot1000 Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 Many thanks You will need to deactivate the messaging notification through the settings menu, otherwise you'll be getting 2 notifications for every text you receive
Guest le_lutin Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 Another vote for Handcent here! It will even speak out the text for you when it pops up with the message.

Guest stevenz Posted January 23, 2010 Report Posted January 23, 2010 Agreed. The developer is very helpful too. Which reminds me, I should reinstall it :)
Guest Posted January 24, 2010 Report Posted January 24, 2010 Downloaded Handcent SMS through the recommendations in this thread. The level of customisation is insane! Very quick, smooth interface, thanks guys :)
