[Q] An odd question regarding handcent sms - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just started to notice that the blinking notification light turns off after about a minute. Thought it was the phone until I installed on my wife's Evo with the same results
Any ideas? Please let me know. Thanks.

In handcent,hit menu,notifications and then scroll down to enable reminders.

[Q]Handcent lockscreen notification?

I've been using handcent since I got my EVO at launch. But I just remembered about the message being displayed on the lockscreen with the stock messaging app, and I actually miss that now. I hate the pop up feature that handcent has, but does anyone know if its still possible to have the message on the bottom of the lockscreen? Even if there's another messaging app that has the feature. I just like having my own custom look. Is there maybe an app for it? Any help is greatly appreciated.
I'm not a Mik.....but my EVO is!
Well I don't know of an app that will do that. You can try Go sms, but handcent just give you that full popup, or use stock messaging, which no one wants to do that.
I am -.- lol got tired of people reading my God damn texts. Stupid pop up poop lol.

I believe handcent has an option to turn off the pop up. If it doesn't. Chompsms then.

it does have the option, and I have it off, I just kinda miss having the message show at the bottom of the lock screen like with the stock messaging app.

Keep in mind, enabling any pop up options in handcent will cause a wakelock until you acknowledge the message. If you get a text a midnight and don't read it til 7am, your phone will be wakelocked for 7 hours, resulting in battery drain.
Oh wow. That's why I deleted that piece of crap. Stock messaging app is reliable..except for the occasional 'miss-click'

Is haptic feedback slider turned down? If so, turn that up. That might help.

My problem is just the opposite! I updated my Epic to Gingerbread and now I cant get the dang thing to stop vibrating! And the vibration is INTENSE! I have the settings to Vibrate: Never and the Notification Ringtone to Silent .. yet every time i get a txt message, its like an atomic bomb going off! Help!
Thanks for the help guys. I installed handcent sms, unchecked and checked all relevant settings, rebooted, and it's back!

[Q] My wife's noitification led

My wife has a Wildfire S and its stock, but the notification led keeps flashing when the screen is off. the only weird thing that i did to her phone was install handicent SMS and SMSAwake to wake the phone when she gets a message ala iPhone which she just moved from. Does anyone have any ideas as to where to start looking? TIA
What color is it flashing?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S using xda premium
It's flashing green like there is a message/email whatever. When she checks it there is nothing there.
That's odd the only thing I can suggest is removing handset and the SMS awake thing then reboot to see if it stops.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire S using xda premium
Well, it appears that it was just SMSAwake. I removed it and the LED stopped flashing randomly

What exactly is the problem? I'd be glad to test to see if it even exists, but have yet to notice anything.

Well for us the screen would turn on when u receive a text message and it gets annoying..does your screen turn on when you receive a message?

I don't see a problem here. Just turn off notification solves the issue and no need to install anything

You silly. No one wants their screen light to come up when you get a notification. You want the notification led to go on when getting a notification. That is what the notification led is for.
The individual wants notification without their screen light turned on.
I don't know why some applications turn on the screen light some or all the time when getting a notification. I had a few apps turn on the screen light when getting a notification. But you may want to try out "Light Flow" in the Play Store. See if that helps.

If you read my post then you would know that I knew that. I was talking to the other person.
Note - Light Flow is not compatible with Note 2 right now, because you will have to disable S Pen Air View function. Sorry, my bad. My idea was to change the application's, that is causing this issue, behavior to only use LED Notification.
This is usually cause by an app that has a background process running to be notified when you do something like send & receive and SMS, MMS, etc... This is one of many reasons why I use AutoStarts application to manage background processes. This app most likely is an app that your carrier, Sprint, added to your Samsung Galaxy Note 2. These apps like this loves to have background processes being notified when you send or receive SMS and MMS. This is most likely the app/s that caused this issue of your screen light to light up for a moment. Stopping that background process is the best solution.
My question to you is: What did you change within those files that solved this problem?
My request to you is: Write to us what you changed within each of those files, with the name of each file, to solve this problem.
I have go-pro-sms .... and it has a setting to turn off the screen coming on .. Blahhhhhhhhhh

[Q] notification light

But today notification light keeps on blinking when screen is off dont knw y but no missedcall .no new mail notification . dnt knw why led is blinking.

Happens to me sometimes too. Usually when Im using Whatsapp and then I switched to another app or something. Also another thing that happened to me was the notification light didn't blink at all even when I received a text message or Whatsapp posts.
What I did was, I did the hardware test (by dialling *#0*# on the dialer) and test all my LED lights. After that, my notification lights went back to normal. Hope this helps
Yeah sometimes it goes insane.
