is there any way to show we have a new SMS or MISSED CALL when display is OFF ?
If you go to start > settings > Sounds & Notifications > Notifications tab, and when you select "New Text Message" or "Missed Call" from the drop down menu then just tick the box "Flash Light for" and set a time limit. then when you have a missed call or a new text message you will get a flashing amber LED.

I'm sure there is a hack to hide the pop up notification which is displayed for about 5 secs when you receive a message
It's a bit embarrasing if you have the phone on the dashboard for satnav and then a private text is summarised as it arrives
All i want is the incoming tone and symbol - not the message sender and text displayed
Hide SMS notification
To hide the pop up notification:-
go to start, then settings, then click on sounds & notifications,
from the events dropdown list pick Messaging: New Test Message,
then just tick or untick display message on screen!
also has options for playing sounds and a flashing notification light.
Hope this helps, 1st time i have replied to anyone on this forum
Thanks Wooley - never noticed it there !!! All done now

I remember before that when there is a next text message, one of the LED's blinked orange. Was that my imagination or can we turn that feature on?
I would like to look quickly at the phone and know if there is a new message without having to turn on the phone.
TIA
Yes
Settings -> (personal tab) Sounds and Notifications -> select in the list New Text -> check blink ... ...
thank you!
Hi Guys,
Any hack for the light near the ear speaker to show(blink) missed calls or new emails or sms?
thanks.
It's a standard function
Start > Settings > Sound > Advanced > Notifications tab > Select the thing you want a light to blink for... and there somewhere is a checkbox where you can let the light blink for a couple of minutes, or till you read it etc.
Start > Settings > Sound > Advanced > Notifications tab

Vibrate
ok found it thanks
Missed a meeting because my s3 was in my pocket and did not vibrate and i didnt hear the tone. Went to calendar -> settings and there is no "vibrate" checkbox in the "Notifications settings" section (like there was on my old galaxy s). I also don't have this checkbox in my text messages settings, but my text do vibrate albeit not with the default vibrate "tone" i selected. My phone is pure stock att no root, no rom only 3 days old. Anybody know how to have calendar reminders / alerts / notifications vibrate?

If you go in settings, then sounds, is the check box next to Sound and Vibration checked?

Yes. It does vibrate for calls and texts, just not for calendar. Also, it vibrates for calendar reminders when i set "silent mode" to vibrate, i just want calendar reminders to vibrate even when silent mode is off (meaning i want both a tone and vibrate). I've seen other posts for s3's that reference a "vibrate" checkbox on the message setting, but i do not see this text box so I'm assuming other s3 owners have a vibrate checkbox on the calendar setting that i do not have also - can anybody corroborate this for me?
This is fixed in the OTA update currently rolling out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31801294#post31801294
Hello all,
This is kinda strange , HTC decided that rejected calls are missed calls and this doesn't bother that much, but when I reject a call a couple of options appear on the lock screen whether to send an text message or remind me to call the caller again. There is an option in Settings > Call which should disable these lock screen options for rejected calls "Declined Calls" with the following description: Show text message and reminder options for declined calls . I unchecked this setting but it still shows me the two options, any idea how to really disable those options?!
Best regards..
